Chapter 53
For Akira and Akio, their trail was quite easy. They were in a rocky area, and all they encountered in the place was some burly Orcs.
The Orcs were strong no doubt about it, but their attacks were too slow. This was great advantage to the two wolves who were fast as fuck.
[ 70 Orcs have been Slain ]
[ Exp will be distributed evenly ]
[ You have Leveled up ]
[ You have Leveled up ]

With that they reach level 5. The orcs were decent opponents, but they were still too weak for both of them.
'' Hey brother ! These piggy looking people look tasty, can I eat them ? '' Akio called for Akira's attention.
'' Wait ! They could be poisonous ! '' Akira warned as he sniffed the corpse of the Orcs. These Pig people were very unknown to him, and he will not eat something that he does not know anything of.
'' Mmm... They taste just like a pig. '' Akio said with mouthful of Orc flesh.
'' I said they could be poisonous ! '' Akira screamed in horror, '' why are you eating them? ''
'' Don't be selfish brother, I know you want to eat them too. '' Akio said with a smug face.
'' No I don't. '' Akira denied, but his empty belly betrayed him by roaring like a beast.
'' Fine I will eat them. '' He gave up and began to eat the Orcs. As Akio said, they do indeed taste like pork.

[ 4 evolution points have been rewarded ]
[ Evolution points are full. You can now evolve ]
[ Choose an evolution path: ]
• Giant Dire wolf : A species of wolves that are the largest of their kind. They have high damage, combined with high HP, but by having a larger body frame, they can be targeted easily. Once the host evolves into this, host will gain
{+5 Strength and +300 HP each time the host Levels up. }
• Werewolf : An evolved species of wolves that are humanoid in appearance. They have high agility, attack speed and decent damage. Once the host evolves into this, host will gain
{ +5 Agility, increases attack speed by 3% and +3 Strength everytime the host levels up }
{ One-handed weapons mastery }
As the two brothers looked at the notifications, Akira and Akio picked the best choice for themselves.
It was their fighting style of preferring speed over strength, so they picked the Werewolf option. It would not give them any overpowered strength, but the increase in agility and attack speed was a tempting offer. Plus the One-handed weapons mastery was also a good reward.

( With Naruto )
If you were wondering what Naruto was currently feeling, it was definitely annoyance.
He had spent five days in this trail. FIVE FUCKING DAYS!!!
All what he wanted was to finish this stupid trail as soon as possible, but it did not. Sure, the feeling of gaining strength and increasing levels was fun at the beginning, but not it was getting annoying. He had already finished three floors, and with every floor he entered, the difficulty was increased.
Sure Naruto loved to fight, but when you have for five days straight with not even a chance to eat, sleep, or even take a shit, you would get pretty annoyed. Whenever he tried to answer nature's call, some monster would come up to him with an intention to kill him.
Now on the fifth and last floor, he was to kill an Elder lich. When he saw that there was only one enemy, he sighed in relief. '' Finally I can go back. '' He laughed like a maniac, his face etched with the fucked up smile of his. He charged at the Elder lich with his sword in hand still having that smile on his face.
The Elder lich saw that Naruto was straight towards it, it began to use a spell every Necromancer knows too well.
On the floor, it was littered with bones, rotten corpses and rusted weapons and armour. The Elder lich raised it's hands high up in the air, and from the floor, every bones and rotten corpses rose up and went to intercept Naruto.
Naruto spat in annoyance at the scene before him. He had already faced a lich before, they have the ability to summon undead to fight for them. Also he knows how to beat them.
As he came closer and closer to the army of Undead, he swung his giant sword mowing down any undead that stood infront of him.
He just swung his sword at them while advancing towards the Elder lich.
The Elder lich seeing that Naruto was occupied with it's Undead, began to chant a spell. But Naruto already saw that comming.
Holding his sword like a spear, he threw it at the Elder lich. It impaled the Elder lich, cancelling the spell.
jumping up and landing infront of the Elder lich, he grabbed it's skull and crushed it with his absurd grip strength.
[ Elder lich has been slain ]
[ 1000 EXP has been awarded ]
[ You have Leveled up ]
As the Elder lich turned into ash, the undead that it created also turned into ash as well.
The Elder lich, dropped only one item though.
[ Skill book: Drain touch ( Lv 1 )
On physical contact, the host can absorb 0.5 % of enemy's chakra, nutrients, and stamina every second. The skill will be cancelled if physical contact is broken.
The skill can be upgraded ]
Naruto didn't care of what the skill could do, because he saw the thing he needed the most. A portal appeared that was to lead him out this trail.
As he entered the portal, he was greeted with darkness.
[ Host has cleared the trail ]
[ Exiting the tail in 3, 2, 1 ]

{ Back in Konoha }
Team 8 and Team 11, has just return from their mission from the hidden village of the water fall.
The mission didn't end that well as they planned it to be, but they atleast completed it. The problem began when some guy who was the former teacher of Shibuki and a missing-nin as well, began to do some crazy shit in the village regarding the Hero water. He even brought along three ninjas from Amegakure as helpers.
With the help of Fu, team 8 and 11, with their sensei and with Shibuki overcoming his cowardice they defeated them. They did suffer some injuries but it was still ok.
'' Man I tired. '' Kiba groaned, '' I'm gonna go home and take a nice nap. ''
'' I will also takey leave. '' Hinata said as she gave a small bow and left.
'' See you later Hinata. '' Kiba waved goodbye to Hinata and began to walk towards his house, but Shino stopped him.
'' I think we have something to discuss something about what happened during the mission. '' Shino said in his monotone voice.
'' You mean that time when that Fu girl, gave you a hug and you became petrified in shock. '' Kiba said with a devilish smile. Shino still remem
During the time in Land of waterfall, Shino and Fu became friends very quickly, as they share a same interest in insects. Their relationship progressed very quickly a little too quickly, but Shino was completely oblivious to the signs Fu was showing him.
Well things took a turn when they wete about to leave as Fu gave Shino a tight hug as she whispered something to his ear.
They did not know what she said to Shino, and they Shino would tell them.
'' I'm not talking about that, '' Shino said, '' I'm talking about Hinata's injuries. ''
During the Fight with Shibuki, Hinata was injured as she recieved a slash wound on her arm. It was not that serious, but that was not the problem. The problem was what would happen to them, if Naruto finds out about this.
That made Kiba sweat, as he gulped in fear, he clearly remembered what Naruto told them and the consequences they will face. But Kiba's face remembered something and he sigh in relief.
'' Don't worry, Hinata will never tell Naruto about her injuries. '' Kiba said, '' She doesn't like to make Naruto worry too much about her. ''
'' I know that. '' Shino said, '' But we are talking about Naruto here... he will definitely find out. ''
'' Shit. ''
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
{ Back with Naruto }
As Naruto exited from the portal, he was at the same place he was before he entered the trail.
But one thing surprised him... He realized that from the time he started the trail, till at that moment, only five hours had passed.
Naruto didn't mind it though, it was still currently very dark. He simply laid on the grassy ground and with the exhaustion of fighting for five days straight, he fell asleep.
When he woke up, he was greeted by a tap on his cheek. He opened his eyes to see a beautiful girl, probably the same age as him. She smiled at him.
'' What are trying to do? '' Naruto asked in an emotionless tone, clearly annoyed with the girl disturbing his sleep.
Naruto found out that the girl was collecting some medicinal plants. Naruto just watched as the girl plucked the medicinal plants.
'' So What are you doing here all night? '' The girl asked Naruto.
'' Training. '' Naruto replied.
'' Why do you train? '' She asked.
'' It's because I want to protect someone. " Naruto replied.
'' You have a very nice reason to get strong. " The girl said with a smile.
As she finished collecting the plants, she bid Naruto goodbye and was walking away.
Naruto also has no reason to stay there any longer, so he left.
' She was the same masked ninja who was with Zabuza. '
Naruto smirked, ' That bastard Zabuza is gonna come back real soon, this time... I'll kill him. '
'' But first, I need something to eat. ''
