[Alright! Let's get you prepped for a new life!]
The scenery suddenly changed and before he realized it, Ray was standing in a hospital hallway outside of closed doors with a lit up sign that displayed "Operating theater" over it. Looking around, he ca to discover there was no one else around except a small boy sleeping on a bench.
"Hey, where is this? What are we doing he-?!"
Searching for answers, Ray reached out towards the child attempting to wake the him up. But when he did, his hand passed through the child as if he were a ghost.
[Hold you horses, were still not done yet]
"I was wondering when you were gonna talk again. You said new life, but what are we doing here, and who is this kid?"
[Right, intro. 'Ray', allow
happily introduce 'Rei'!]
"Wait...what? Why does this kid have the sa na as...huh...w-wait a sec!"
[Hm?]
"I entering a new world. You said you're "prepping
for a new life". There's a kid standing in front of
with the sa...or a similar na to mine. Oh...does this an I'm gonna have to-"
[Aaaaah, isn't it refreshing to have a Protagonist in an "Isekai" world with brains? That's right, you're starting over in a new, younger body]
"Oh that's just great. And here I was hoping for decent start"
[What's the problem now?]
"For starters, you're having
take over the body of a CHILD! I'm not like so typical Isekai character who just glosses over the fact that they have just taken over soone else's body!"
[Huh...I thought you'd be the type that wouldn't read things like manga?]
"I only rember things I take an interest in. But that doesn't an I haven't read them. You can't judge sothing you've never tried yourself"
[Wise words]
"Back to the matter at hand, I think anyone would prefer to stay as they are instead of turning into a...how old is this kid?"
[He's 3 years old]
"3 years old...taking over a child! Dumbass!"
[Ya know, I was expecting more gratitude for this and less wit. You ungrateful, soon-to-be little, shit]
"Gratitude for making
go through puberty again?"
[Like you said, you need power so survive in this world ruled by Ninja right?]
"Yeah...so what?"
[Well spoiler alert, most people can't beco strong Shinobi when they start training in their 50's]
"I'm in my early 30's thank you very much"
[h...close enough]
"Asshole"
[Aaaaand, you get to enter the story about 14 years before "Part 1" even starts. That gives you plenty of leeway to prepare for the final climatic arc in "Part 2". Which alone vastly increases your chances of survival.]
"I guess that's true, but taking over a kid is-"
[Fictional kid. Bonus, you're getting a body with, almost, the sa na as you to help avoid confusion. And you already know a little Japanese right? Assimilation shouldn't be too difficult for soone as smart as you]
"Hmmm. Maybe..."
[Right! So feel free to apologize whenever you like]
"Okay. I'm sorry for the an, yet accurate things I said"
[Hah...Baby steps I guess]
"..."
[Anyway, we're pretty much out of ti so we need get moving now]
"Sigh! Besides the moral implications of taking over a child's body...is there anything else I should know about him to avoid suspicion when I assu his life?"
[Avoid suspicion? Co on Ray, he's a three year old 'extra'. It's not like he's so super spy]
"Minor details then?"
[Ugh...His na is "Rei Sano". His mother hails from unknown, unremarkable lands far to the West...and she died during her pregnancy]
"Okay, his father?"
[His father is a Jonin nad "Keido Sano" who, fun fact, is about to die on the table behind those closed doors within the next minute. Which just so happens to signal the start of this "Project" you're undergoing. So now, our little Q & A session if officially over]
"Wait, what?"
[Sorry, but ti has run out.
Don't worry, I'll be in touch. I'm your "Guide" after all]
"Wha...but I'm still not?!"
[Ok! Ready? LET'S GO!]
"I WASN'T READY YEETTTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!"
Before he could say anything else, Ray's corporeal form suddenly disassembled and entered "Rei's" body.
[You know what to do]
[...............'PROJECT ILLUMINATION' IS INITIATED................]
