NLS51-60

Chapter 51

This resulted in Growlithe leveling up scary fast. He grew to level 10 by

the time we were done with the first level natural dungeons. He didn't

gain any new attack or anything of the sort, but he did grow much

faster, since I put a majority of his stats there.

By then I decided it was finally time to catch a second pokemon, and I

decided to catch another Growlithe, this one I called Blaze. Blaze was

a female and so Flamer soon came to look at her as someone to

protect. With a second pokemon added I moved on to the next level

natural dungeon because frankly, I was starting to get bored fighting

just rats and cats.

In the end I got around 672 pelts, which I turned into leather. There

were the same number of fangs which I turned into fang daggers, so

that rounded up to around 200 daggers. I quickly began to use them as

my main weapons to save up on kunai metal.

But a strange thing though, as I continued to train in that dungeon, the

number of gold coins I came across came down drastically. I end up

with only 25 coins at the end of the five month period.

Whatever, at least I got 10 pokeballs, 20 potions and one paralysis

heal out of this;

Paralyze heal, E class item,

Removed the paralyzed status from the target.

The next level came as a surprise for me. It was still a forest setting,

but this time it was filled with bug type pokemon.

Caterpie, Weedle, Metapod, Kakuna, Beedrill and Butterfree. The

difficult was raised up a bit as the weasel pokemon there was only level

5 and the strongest was level 10. Each level 5 gave 100 EXP and the

level 10's gave 400 EXP.

The boss of this level was a Scyther, obviously I tried my best to catch

it. But because of how...effective Flamer and Blaze was I didn't have

anything to catch, stupid fire type affinity. Although I did gain 800 EXP

from it, so that's nice.

The next time however we did manage to catch the damn bug type! I

naed it Cuter, duh, and began to train it as well.

Every round in the second dungeon level lead to me getting an

average of 8,000 EXP. Which gave everyone some decent EXP, but

the real highlight was all the juicy loot items I gained. I got around a

hundred vials of poison from weedle;

Weedle Poison, D class item

Poison obtained from Needle, the needle pokemon. Poison will

cause -5 HP every second until opponent faints.

Lasts for 3 hours.

And then I got a lot of silk from capterpie, like several yards of it;

Silk string, D class item

String made by caterpie. Can be substituted for ninja wire.

Beedrill of course gave me special honey along with his lancing

pincers;

Beedrill honey, C class item

Honey that grants +50 HP

Beedrill lances, E class item

The lance Beedrill has attached to it's arms.

DMG- 2

The last one was useless, I never even picked up a single lance.

Butterfree gave me two types of powder, sleep powder and paralyzing

powder;

Sleep powder, E class item

Powder obtained from Butterfree that will cause an opponent to

fall asleep for 5 minutes.

Paralyzing powder, E class item

Powder obtained from Butterfree that will paralyze an opponent

for 5 minutes.

And the few Scyther drops I did manage to get gave me a lot of green

exoskeleton plates for armour plating.

Scyther plates, C class item

Hardened exoskeleton of a Scyther that can withstand a

significant amount of cutting damage.

Durability- 300/300 (+400 for cutting damage.)

Plus I got around 300 thousand Ryo, not that I cared for money at this

point. And in the start of my second year at the Academy I found myself

leading the class room in academics as well as ninja stuff. Sasuke

didn't like that I was at the top of the class, because of this he and I

constantly used to butt heads.

But as I mentioned, time began to fly past be without me realizing it.

The second year went by even faster as now I actually did have

something to look forward too in school, mainly ninjutsu training!

Finjutus, Lv- 38 (83%)

The art of making seals using paper and ink.

Success rate- 76%

Maximum difficulty range- B class seals

We had a special class in the Academy for fuinjutsu, mainly teaching

students how to make sealing scrolls or explosion tags. Nothing too

dangerous as we were never allowed to actually make the seals, just

learn about them. Obviously, I went a few steps further.

I worked on sealing for over two years and got pretty good at it. Any

seal I created automatically went under the crafting menu and it's

various recipes, so the skill mainly focused on how good I was. And

believe me, I was very, very good.

I hide most of my talent in it, for obvious reasons I didn't want people to

know how good I really ws, or else people would start to take noticed

and I wasn't ready for that...yet.

And the beginning of the third year also meant the beginning of ninja

survival training, not a bad thing to do. We spent so much time outside

in the forest camping out, I managed to get Naruto interested in trap

making, allowing him to use it along with his other arsenal of pranks.

The blonde was...difficult at times. He kept falling asleep, didn't listen

and even once tried to freaking start a food fight! ARGH!

Chapter 52

In the beginning of the second year I found out his marks were so bad

he barely passed, technically he failed the written portion, but the

physical side got him passed the limit. But technically speaking, he still

failed.

So I took it upon myself to make sure that never happened again. I

began to tutor him. Yes, it bite into my training time, but couldn't help it,

no friend of mine was going to be a moron!

This did earn me a skill;

Teaching, Lv- 22 (89%)

Your ability to teach a concept to another individual or group.

Understanding a subject- 44%

+20% bonus if INT is greater than student

Meh, it was okay I guess. Two years of teaching and I only got this

much, not worth it, trust me. But on the plus side I finally got Naruto

interested in fuinjutsu I had to bribe him with ramen, but it was worth it.

The kind took to it like fish to water.

He wasn't a great seal master, so such thing, I still had to teach him a

thing or two, but man if he wasn't being quick about it. Soon he could

just surpass me in every way!

Either way, two years went by and with that the time I spent training

also reduced significantly, since I had to split my time between school,

Naruto and writing my novels.

Oh! On a side note, Stan Lee is now the number one fantasy writer in

the Elemental nations and his last book, 'The Man of Steel' was

apparently so popular in Kumo, the land of lightning, their Raikage took

to calling himself by the same name.

Little narcissistic if you ask me, but whatever. For the third year in the

academy I announced a third book to my 'Justice' collection. It was

called 'Wonder Woman' and Baroma has been teasing it like fucking

crazy!

Women had been pre-ordering it like crazy, a female lead character

was apparently really rare here, guess some things never change. I

made a shit ton of money already and the book is set to release when I

begin my third year at the academy.

And all around the countries people have been asking, 'just is Stan

Lee? He's a genius!' Hehe, now I'm beginning to wish I used my own

name instead.

Either way, back to training, rare, but intense. In the beginning of my

second year I started the third level natural dungeon, which I unlocked

after completing the seconds level the first time around.

This time the setting wasn't a forest, but instead it was a valley

between two mountains. The valley was covered with tall grass and

water streams, and the pokemon I found there were...amazing to say

the least.

I found Geodudes and Nidorans, both the male and female variety. It

was a….different dungeon.

The rock type pokemon were difficult to handle, since most of my

jutsus at the time were fire based and I had two fire type pokemon.

Obviously it took me a lot of broken daggers and bloody fists to defeat

a single geodude who was at level 15.

So I decided to be a little smart about it. I first caught a male Nidoran,

since it was a fighting type and they would be strong against rock and

ground types. I named it 'King', accurate, I know. I then took King and

began to train him in the second level dungeon, grinding to raise his

level.

And then I took him back into the third level dungeon and kicked some

freaking ass!

King was amazing! The way he moved was like watching a bullet,

double kick all around. Every time we encountered a geodude King

and I would double team the pokemon, me gained sweet EXP points

while he did all the work.

I used Cuter, Flamer and Blaze to fight off the wild Nidorans there, so

they too managed to gain some EXP. And finally, when we cleared

enough of them, the boss arrived. An Onix.

Oh I so had to catch that. It was a deadly battle, I nearly got crushed to

death! But...but...we won. Flamer managed to place an exploding tag

underneath Onix's head causing a big enough explosion for it to get

knocked back and had it's HP reduced to 5. I was so close to killing

that thing.

But, two pokeballs later and it was mine. I began to call him Basher,

kind of accurate since he liked headbutting things a lot.

All throughout second year I grinded in the third level dungeon. I

trained my pokemon hard. And in return we got a shit ton of loot!

From Geodude we go precious stones, like rubies, sapphires and other

such gems. I sold almost all of them, getting me a nice amount of cash

on hand, around 3 million easy. But, among those precious stones was

one very very important one;

Moonstone, A class item

A stone that harness the power of the moon to level up certain

pokemon.

During training, King leveled up to level 16, causing him to evolve for

the very first time! This gave me a Nidorino in it's place. And

immediately after that, I used the moonstone after that, causing it to

evolve into it's last form, Nidoking!

Fuck yeah! King was quickly becoming my favorite pokemon!

Apparently evolving a pokemon allowed it to level up five time, giving it

not just 5 points, but 25! I so had a field day with that.

Chapter 53

But back to the loot items. I got a few poison jars from the Nidorans in

wild along with some material to create daggers. But I never really

bothered with them as the poison powder I had from before was much

more powerful.

And then came Onix, which gave me all kinds of metals, like iron and

steel. But it also gave me a rare kind of metal;

Chakra metal ore,

Metal that is sensitive to chakra channeled through it.

That was fuckign cool and you best belive I had a chakra trench knife

made similar to the ones Asuma uses. It wasn't easy though, I had to

first learn how to make an ore usable and then metallurgy. But luckily

for me Chakra metal was such a popular subject there were plenty of

materials to look through.

Chakra metal trench knives, A class items

Trench knives made out of Chakra metal.

DMG: 30 (Damage bonus is based on chakra infused)

Yay! These quickly became my go to weapons, since they were

actually good. I had a lot more ore left over, so I decided to make more,

creating five knives in total. They were...beautiful. I had some chakra

metal left over, I decided to keep it for a rainy day.

So with these knies and my pokemon, I became a force to be reckoned

with in combat. I cleared the third level many times over, but

unfortunately since my time being demanded so much, I could barely

keep up.

The EXP I gained form the third level dungeon was good, 250 from the

level 15's and 600 from the Onix boss. I gained over three hundred

thousand for my troubles which resulted in my pokemon leveling up

major time;

For the pokemon I focused on LUC, INT and and speed. I needed them

to be clever enough to understand me or fight on their own and

because they were facing opponents the loot items they cored would

be better with a higher LUC stat. And since they were all fast pokemon

I thought that VIT would be the most important place to level up.

Only thing was their attacks were not all that amazing, the only thing I

can say is good about their attacks is that they can do it a lot. I really

hope they get some better attacks, because as they are right now they

could barely take on a genin by themselves!

I did want to teach them chakara by investing points in it, but I came to

know that they couldn't use it, at all. The game system didn't accept

any points I allocated to them. Sigh, you can't win it all.

Chapter 54

I did spend a lot of time exploring the village as well. And while I

explored the village and the people, I ended up stumbling upon a lot of

Golden leaves in the process.

I found a total of 10 additional golden leaves in the two years time.

They were;

Konoha Archive Library, +10 points

Konoha Aviary, Skill book: Animal tracking

Konoha Bank, Skill book: Copy book jutsu

Konoha Cemetery, Konoha Battle fan

Konohagakure Central Post Office, Mental mini map of Konoha

Konoha Hospital, +5 points

Konoha Hot Springs, +5 skill scroll

Dango Shop, +10 skill scroll

Yakiniku Q, 3 Soldier pills

Yamanaka Flowers, Skill book: Basic poison making

Not bad for two years. Honestly by the fifth one I was grasping at

straws here. The hokage mountain was too big and the hokage tower

was under watch 24/7, I can't even go near there unless I want an

ANBU member following me around for the next ten minutes!

And of course, I also leveled up quite a bit over the past two years;

Yami, Little Professor

Level- 23 (4,500/11,500)

HP- 2,600/2,600 (+20)

SP- 1,275/1,275

CP- 1,400/1,400

CONTROL- 96%

Allegiance- Konoha Civilian

STR- 30

VIT- 33

DEX- 36

INT- 34 (+2)

CHA- 40

CC- 79

LUC- 25 (+5)

Points- 0

Black Money- 4,278,500R

Needless to say the one thing I never regretted working on was my

control, only level 23 and already it was near perfect! Argh! This is just

too good to be true! God bless the broken system!

And also, the moment my CC stat crossed 50, I gained my very first

perk!

Chakra regenerator- Chakra regeneration time is reduced by half.

My regeneration rate was around 32% per minute, pretty decent if I do

say so myself. But with this perk that reduced the time my regeneration

time by half, meaning 32% every thirty seconds! Fuck yeah!

Now however I focused on my chakra reserves as well, very very

important that. But other than just pure EXP, my skills also improved;

Chakara thread, Lv- 27 (39%)

A concentrated thread of chakra that can be attached to

manipulate certain objects.

CP cost- 3 CP per minute per 1 feet

Max length- 250 feet

With enough training I managed to actually used chakra threads

accurately enough that I can now direct kunai and shuriken with them.

Cooking, Lv- 32 (55%)

You can cook and make something to eat. It may not be edible.

Bonus- 64% to all food items you make

Since Naruto and I lived together for so long, and the moron basically

has no idea how to cook, I ended up leaving this on up a lot.

Disturbance style, Lv- 32 (74%)

Akin to a warrior's dance performance, a user of this style is able

to rapidly and relentlessly bombard their target with precision, at

various angles and locations. This style, comprised of sheer

unpredictable movements, can easily catch his opponents off-

guard.

DMG- +50 + STR + DEX

Speed- 47% faster

Since I always ended up fighting with Sasuke, or took on a few

pokemon bare handed I used this a lot. And believe me it was so worth

it. It becomes twice as deadly when I use my daggers, which I did

whenever I could.

Easdropping, Lv- 23 (3%)

Your ability to listen in someone else's conversation without them

being aware of it. This is a very important skill for a ninja to

possess for information gathering.

Range: 35 feet (100% accuracy)

-10% accuracy for every additional feet

Constant grinding of this skill let me level it up.

Flirting, Lv- 9 (30%)

Your ability to charm your target to drop their gaurd, confuse

them or getting them to like you.

18% chance of it working

+5 REP bonus if works

DOn't ask...just...don't.

Kunai techniques, Lv- 28 (39%)

Your ability to handle a kunai accurately.

Aquaracy- 100%

Bonus- 50% to DMG

Honestly I don't even bother with grinding this anymore, I'm already a

perfect shot.

Leaf concentration exercise, Lv- 20 (MAX)

By keeping a leaf stuck on your forehead thanks to chakara you

now only help with your chakra control exercise but also improve

your concentration.

Uses: 10 CP per minute

Leaves to hold up- 5

+1 INT while active

When I hit this chakra control skills limit I had already reached over a

56% control rate, so the limit didn't really bother me. But it did allow me

to learn a new chakra control skill, tree walking!

Tree walking, Lv- 20 (MAX)

By channeling chakra into any part of your body you can stick to

surfaces.

Uses: 10 CP per minute

The tree walking exercise did offer me a bonus of 2 CC stats for every

level I mastered. And after I mastered that I moved to the next logical

step;

Water walking, Lv- 10 (30%)

By channeling chakra into the soles of your feet you can walk on

water.

Uses: 15 CP per minute

For the water walking skill I got 5 CC per level, but it was hard as nails

to level it up to what it is right now. But I had more than enough stat

points right now to eventually get me to the high amount of control I

had right now. So that was nice!

Other than that I leveled up my lying skills, maintenance, shuriken

handling and running.

Lying, Lv- 20 (43%)

You ability to lie to people without getting caught.

44% chance of success

-20% if the lie is too unbelievable

Maintenance, Lv- 24 (60%)

Maintaining something is just as important as owning it.

+35% bonus to all items you maintain (clean, polish oil) for

whatever their use is

Bonus lasts for 40 minutes

Shuriken techniques, Lv- 21 (9%)

Your ability to handle a kunai accurately.

Aquaracy- 75%

Bonus- 30% to DMG

Running, Lv- 28 (40%)

Your skill to run at amazingly fast speeds.

Max speed- 12 Km per hour

Cost- 10 SP per minute

That last one was so high because I constantly needed to run away or

too something in dungeons or in real life. Pretty cool huh?

Either way, at the end of the two years living in this village, I'm finally

growing more and more self assured off myself, there's nothing that

can throw me off! I' totally ready for anything!

"Yami," Iruka-sensei called me over on the first day of my third year. I

had just entered the Academy with Naruto who went on without me.

"What is it Iruka sensei?" I asked curiously, approaching the man, "is

there something wrong?"

The man smiled, "oh nothing like that Yami. In fact, it's quite the

opposite. You see, after your last test results I spoke to the Hokage

and he has agreed to let you skip ahead a year."

My eyes went wide, "what?!"

Iruka chuckled, "that's right! You're going to be in the fourth year! That

means you're one step closer to graduating! Isn't that great?!"

I have no idea how I'm supposed to feel about this. Panic? Panic. Oh

wait, Gamer's mind refuses to let me freak out. ARGH! I fucking hate

this game!

Chapter 55: The 4th's Legacy

I stood facing the little monsters wearing black tights that came down

till my shins with bandages going down my legs till my black toeless

sandals. I stuffed my hands into the front of my back hoodie finding

with the zip line between my hands.

Mizuki smiled, "go on little professor, introduce yourself."

I sighed as I stepped up and met the eyes of all the fourth year

students before me, "hello, I'm Yami, it's nice to meet you."

"Yami!" Lee called out from the first row grinning brightly, "it's good to

see you my friend!"

"Sir, why is Naruto's bro here?" asked a girl, Pepe according to her

name. I sighed, ever since Naruto and I became roommates people

called us 'brothers', it was nice at first, but every time Naruto heard it

the kid began to act emotional and shit, stupid kid.

"That's because this brat is overqualified to be in the year below you,"

Mizuki said with a smirk as I gulped feeling everyone's eyes land on

me.

"Really? So is he some kind of genius?" asked a boy, Toru.

"Yes," Mizuki nodded, "I don't call him the little professor for nothing.

Anyway, go on kid, sit down."

"Here Yami!" Lee called out immediately pointing at the seat next to

him. I sighed, but unable to really say no I sat down next to the boy

who smiled giddily.

"Now, let's begin," Mizuki went into his lecture, Lee looked bored, as

did the rest of the class, but I did my best to listen closely. Kind off.

Meh, not really.

I already had a high enough INT score, why did I still need to listen to

this crap? So for the rest of the day I just dozed off, going in and out of

conscious awareness. Stupid boring class.

Lunch that day was...entertaining.

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU WON'T BE IN THE SAME CLASS?!"

Naruto cried out so loudly I think I might have lost a couple of HP there.

I sighed rubbing my ringing ears, "I meant what I said Naruto, Iruka put

into the next year's class, so I won't be with you anymore."

"B-but that's not fair!" Naruto cried out, "how am I going to be Hokage if

you keep getting better than me!"

I scoffed, "dude, I hate that job, you know that. Trust me, as long as

there's an idiot like you willing to be Hokage I will never even think of

getting that job."

"This blows!" Naruto slammed his fist on the table, "who's going to

teach me all the stuff I don't know now?! Who Yami? Who?!" he

grabbed my collar shaking me repeatedly.

I sighed, "maybe you should learn by yourself?"

Naruto cried, "but I don't want too!"

"Yosh!" Lee said as he walked up to Naruto's and mine table, "may I sit

here Yami?"

I shrugged, "sure I guess."

"Much thanks!" Lee smiled as he sat down next to me and smiled at

Naruto, "hello! I'm Rock Lee! It's nice to meet you!"

Naruto blinked, "ah, hello."

I smiled, "Lee is a taijutsu specialist, he likes Sakura too."

Lee blushed, "h-how did you know that?!"

"What?! You like Sakura too?!" Naruto yelled as he jumped off his seat

shaking his fists at Lee, "I won't let you have her you hear?!"

"N-no, it' not like that Naruto I swear!" Lee blushed as slowly they

began to yell.

I smiled form the side, this time tomorrow they would be best friends.

After lunch we had physical training. For the first year we had running

laps and other body exercises. For the second year we had obstacle

training and from the third year would begin taijutsu spars and

weapons training.

We first began training weapons and immediately a new quest came

up.

Quest Aleter!

Hit the target five times with a kunai!

HIt the target five times with a shuriken!

Reward:

+10 EXP per successful hit

Failure:

None

Do you accept?

Y/N?

I rolled my eyes and accepted. Too easy.

"Yami!" called out Tonu-sensei, a low level chunin kunoichi that

specialized in taijutsu. She was assigned to us for outdoors training

and from what could gather she won't have bad...no Mighty Guy, but

not bad.

"Right," I came up to the target and stood away. I reached into my hip

pouch and took out five kunai in one hand.

Tonu began to speak, "you have to get five kunai into the target, you

have ten chance-"

Thuck!

Kunai techniques, Lv- 28 (39%)- Aquaracy- 100%

"Done," I replied as I threw all five at the target hitting bullseye for all

five.

The class immediately began to murrer, looking at the target in awe.

Idiots, this was nothing, try hitting a nidoran in the middle of a field of

lavenders, now that was difficult shit.

"Good job," Tonu replied looking not at all phased or surprised, "now

shurikens."

I sighed and reached around to my hip pouch and took out the

weapons. Threw them quickly, four landing in the center, pushing the

kunai out from sheer force, while the fifth hit the last ring, barely

making it inside the target.

Shuriken techniques, Lv- 21 (9%)- Accuracy- 75%

"You need to work on that," Tonu replied as she marked something

down on her pad.

Ping!

Quest completed!

Throw-

I grumbled as I swiped the message away and walked to the target

getting my weapons before moving aside and letting the next person

step up.

I didn't pay much attention to the people, mostly not bothered by the

filler characters. But when Tenten stepped up, well then I was

interested.

The girl was a master at this already, throwing all ten at once, getting

almost all in the bulls eye. She smirked as she looked at me smugly, I

raised an eyebrow as I met her gaze, was she trying to prove

something?

She finally scoffed and retrieved her weapons, walking past me with a

scolding look, guess she hates me.

Tenten Higurashi, Weapons lover

Lv- 15

REP- 12

Or maybe not. Hm, maybe it was respect I saw her in her eyes.

I looked out for Lee, who got three kunai in and four shuriken, and then

finally Neji, who did a perfect ten, show off.

Chapter 56

We were then divided into groups for taijutsu practise. Most of the kids

were using the academy style while a few others, myself included,

used other forms of combat.

I ended up with a kid from the Sarutobi clan who used the Sarutobi

style. His name was Zumo and he had short black curly hair and

beaming brown eyes. He wore a red full sleeved hoodie with orange

flames lickign the sleeves and edges and a set of black shorts.

We were the fourth to go, right after Neji finished kicking the ass of

some civilian kid. We stepped inside and immediately we made the

sign of confrontation.

"Begin!" Tonu called out as the Sarutobi kid moved.

He swung at kick at my gut, it was so slow all I had to do was sid step it

before spinning on my heel, bringing my elbow swinging forward to hit

him in the gut. My fist then came up causing the back of my hand to hit

his nose before I quickly landed three more hits one after the other on

his upper torso before spartan kicking him out of the ring.

"Out! Winner by disqualification, Yami!" Tonu called out.

Zumo looked up with wide eyes, "h-how did you do that?"

I shrugged, "I'm fast," I offered him my hand, helping him get back on

his feet.

"Those movement, I have never seen a ninja fight like that," Zumo

blinked, "who taught you how to fight?"

"No one taught me, I created my own taijutsu style," I said making the

seal of reconciliation which the kid mimicked.

"You made your own taijutsu style?" Tonu asked with an impressed

eyebrow, "when?"

I shrugged, "when I began the academy. It was...difficult at first, but I

think I became pretty good at it."

"I'll say," she hummed, "it actually resembles the Uchiha interrupter

style, only it's more..."

"Disturbing?" I offered with a smile.

"Yes."

I nodded, "that's what I call it, Disturbance style."

"Sensei," Neji immediately stepped up, "I would like a chance to fight

Yami."

Tonu rolled her eyes, "you Hyuga's and your pride. Sorry kid, but no

can do. Maybe next time okay?"

I looked at Neji as he nodded begrudgingly, before turning to me and

glaring. I sighed, kid was fucking out for blood!

After physical training we went inside for a lecture before being

dismissed. I went home and found Naruto there waiting for me. We

talked a bit before I locked myself in my work room, sitting before Stan

Lee's next hit: Batman Vs. Superman!

Instead of the horrible movie I remember seeing, not that I remember if

I saw it alone or with friends, I wrote a completely new script! Hopefully

this one will be a lot better. I was almost done with it, and was now

putting in the last touches.

Instead of having Superman die I had him, Batman and Wonder

woman come together to form the Trinity. Instead of Doomsday I had

the main bad guy be Darkseid's son Kaliban. They kicked his ass and I

finished the book with the three becoming friends and the threat of a

greater evil looming in the horizon.

It was honestly a blast writing this book, and I had to rewrite it a couple

of times to make it more...Elemental nations friendly, but I think in the

end I made it worth it.

It was dark when I was done, by that time Naruto had come back home

after pulling a few pranks. He and I had the dinner I cooked like always

and went to bed. But while Naruto went to his room, I went out.

I went into the park and reached the dungeon spawn spot. The menu

came up and I selected the level 4 dungeon, a special treat I had

saved for myself for beginning the new year, but I suppose I might as

well get as much training as I possibly could now that I had only one

more year to train before becoming a ninja.

The world shifted and I found myself in a giant stretch of beach. I

blinked and looked around, there was only sand as far as the eye could

see with a few boulders littering the view here and there. And before

me was a vast expanse of water, a seat without limits.

I smiled and unzipped my hoodie revealing a leather vest sown with

scyther plates. And over it was a necklace with five minutrised

pokeballs present like beads. I popped one out and threw it out, "go

Cuter!"

Scyther came flying out, buzzing as it floated over me and looked

around. It turned to me questioningly as it waited for orders.

"Alright Cuter here's the deal," I zipped my hoodie back up and began

walking forward, activating my water walking ability as I walked into the

water, "we are going to be fighting in the water, since Onix, Flamer,

Blaze and King can't work with water you're going to have to watch my

back."

"Scy!" it cried out and nodded as I took off in a sprint, running into the

water while Scyther followed behind me. We got a few feet into the

water when suddenly a giant orange figure exploded from the water at

me.

I quickly dodged it before Cuter came swooping down and slicing

through the thing.

+5 EXP

I blinked at the message, that was very little EXP. I looked at the now

dead pokemon and sighed, "that explains it."

Magikarp,

Lv- 2

I honestly didn't need to see anything else. That explains the single hit

KO.

Scyther and I continued and soon came upon another Magikarp attack,

and another, and another. By the fifth one I didn't even bother dodging.

I just punched it right in the head.

Soon we came onto our first real challenge of the day, a horsea. But it

honestly didn't last very long when after I used my hell viewing

genjutsu to trick it allowing Scyther to knock it out.

We gained around 10,000 EXP from killing all those Horses and

magikarps. We also came across a few Goldeens, but nothing too

amazing. From the Horse As I gained smoke bombs and from the

Goldeens I got fish live oil, which apparently is very useful for cooking.

Chapter 57

In the end we ended up facing the boss of the waters, a giant Seaking.

While powerful and mighty, I didn't really care for it, it was just a giant

fish, big woop. I ended up defeating it easily with a few good hits in and

one slice from Cuter.

I gained 5,000 EXP alone from that thing allowing both Cuter and I to

level up;

Water

You have got to be kidding me! Only now do I get my elemental

control?! Did that mean I would have never gotten it if I didn't level it up

to 100% control?! The fuck man?!

I grumbled but quickly selected Fire, since I did have mostly fire jutsu

to use.

Ping!

You have selected fire!

….So now I have to start all the way from the beginning? Fuck me right

in the ass! That's it, fucking hell!

I came out of the natural dungeon and returned Cuter. I came back

home and sat own at my office. I opened my menu and pulled out all

the skill scrolls I had, which was three. Two + 10 scroll I had gotten

when this whole thing began, a +2 scroll and a + 5 scroll.

Water walking, Lv- 10 (30%)

By channeling chakra into the soles of your feet you can walk on

water.

Uses: 15 CP per minute

I gained +5 CC points for every level gained, I knew saving these

things would be worth it one day. I picked up a scroll and opened it up,

selecting the water walking skill to level up.

Ping!

A skill has leveled up 10 times!

Water walking, Lv- 20 (MAX)

By channeling chakra into the soles of your feet you can walk on

water.

Uses: 10 CP per minute

+ 50 CC!

Yup, totally worth it.

CC- 129

Ping!

You have gained a new perk for crossing 100 CC stat!

Chakra sensor- Detect people's chakra and their moods. Range-

300 feet

Ha! Awesome! A new perk! Take that Tsunade! Let's see you beat my

score! If my calculations were correct that meant the next time I leveled

up I would gain...let's see, 2% for every ten levels meaning..wait, let's

just put a stat point in there;

CC- 130

Points- 4

There we go, much better. Now, 2% into 13 is 26%, add the I would get

perfect control over fire in five level ups!

But good things come to those who wait, if this situation has taught me

anything it was that.

I then turned to the other skills I had in my arsenal and wondered

which ones I should level up. I found two;

Disturbance style, Lv- 32 (74%)

Akin to a warrior's dance performance, a user of this style is able

to rapidly and relentlessly bombard their target with precision, at

various angles and locations. This style, comprised of sheer

unpredictable movements, can easily catch his opponents off-

guard.

DMG- +50 + STR + DEX

Speed- 47% faster

Finjutsu, Lv- 38 (83%)

The art of making seals using paper and ink.

Success rate- 76%

Maximum difficulty range- B class seals

The Disturbance style was my best move set, I really needed it to be

up to notch. So I decided to use my other +10 skill scroll on it;

Disturbance style, Lv- 42 (0%)

Akin to a warrior's dance performance, a user of this style is able

to rapidly and relentlessly bombard their target with precision, at

various angles and locations. This style, comprised of sheer

unpredictable movements, can easily catch his opponents off-

guard.

DMG- +80 + STR + DEX

Speed- 57% faster

And then I used both the +5 skill scroll and +2 skill scroll on fuinjutsu;

Finjutus, Lv- 45 (0%)

The art of making seals using paper and ink.

Success rate- 90%

Maximum difficulty range- A class seals

Mh, cool. With that done I decided to call it a night, might as well get

some sleep.

One year later:

Not much had happened in the last year I spent in the academy. It just

kind of went by without notice...kind off. Oh I grew up a lot, I now stood

at five feet four inches, not bad for a eleven year old kid. My body was

fit, not much fat, but no bulging muscles either.

Oh and what else? Oh right I managed to level up exactly five times!

Meaning I gained a 26% control rate for my fire affinity every time. And

on my fourth level up I completed my fire affinity, allowing me access to

a second affinity!

This time I chose wind and when I leveled up a fifth time;

Yami, Little Professor

Level- 29 (7600/15,200)

HP- 4,000/4,000 (+20)

SP- 1,925/1,925

CP- 2,250/2,250

CONTROL- 100%

FIRE- 100% WIND- 26%

Allegiance- Konoha Civilian

STR- 32

VIT- 42

DEX- 42

INT- 35 (+2)

CHA- 50

CC- 130

LUC- 26 (+5)

And since CHA had reached 50, I had gained a new perk;

Chakra boost- Gain 20% bonus chakra once your reserves run

out.

That was a really important perk as it gave me an extra leg to stand on

just ince the fight got really bad. The enemy would think I'm done for,

then dam! Right in the kisser!

Chapter 58

A few of my other skills also managed to level up, but that wasn't really

important right now. What was important is the field day I had trying to

keep my abilities hidden.

Ever since I went up a year I noticed more and more people talking

about me, mentioning me in their conversations, I didn't like it, but I

knew it was my fault, I just had to be a big shot and prove how smart I

was to everyone.

So I decided from then on, that's all I would be. Just the smart nerdy

kid who was good at taijutsu and kunais. But other than that I kept the

rest of my talents hidden.

Why? One word, Danzo. I did not want to get on that creeps radar.

So it was a very, very slow year for me. I could barely get time off for

dungeon crawling, I didn't even visit the fifth level dungeon I unlocked!

GR! I hate living in a ninja village!

But finally, finally it was over. I woke up on the last day of the academy

excited beyond belief. Naruto himself had woken me up, jumping on

my bed, excited enough for the both of us.

I went to the academy and immediately we began the testing process.

The whole day was test. First it was a written test which I managed to

pass easily. And then came the weapon handling portion along wit the

taijutsu spar where we went up against Tonu-sensei. The spar lasted

five minutes with me getting a hit in.

It was really difficult restricting my own movement purposefully. My

style demanded I let go and trust my instincts, but how could I when I

knew purposefully didn't want to draw attention to myself?

And then came the ninjutsu portion of the test...did I even have to go

into that? I passed, duh. And I walked out of the Academy with a brand

new shining headband that glittered in the light. I held it up and smiled,

not bad.

"Well?!" Naruto ran to me the moment I walked out of the academy

with a smile on his face, "did you get it?"

I grinned as I tied the headband on my forehead, "what do you think?"

"YATA! You are so going to treat me to ramen tonight! Dattebayo!"

Naruto cheered as he practically dragged me away.

Ping!

You have obtained the rank of genin!

You have gained a new title!

Genin- Gains + 20 REP with anyone with allegiance to Konoha. -20

REP with enemies of Konoha.

You no have access to the genin section of the library and can

take up mission with your team!

I grinned, totally worth it!

After eating lunch with Naruto he and I parted ways. I told him I wanted

to go to the library, to which he responded by saying, 'why? You

passed! That means you don't need to study anymore Dattebayo!'

Hehe little did he know how long I have been for this day. I pulled my

hood up and smiled as I walked into the library.

"Oh, good morning Yami, how are you today?" Misa asked smiling.

"Fine," I replied quickly walking into the ninja section looking through

the rows and rows of scrolls and books for anything I can use. Oh,

what' this? And Earth release jutsu? Could be useful.

I picked it up and looked it over, ignoring the instant skill learning option

present before me. As I read it I heard Misa clearing her throat.

I looked over and saw her looming over me with a disapproving face,

"Yami, I have told you time and time again, this section is for ninjas

only, you can't be here, no matter how talented you are. I understand

that-"

I removed my hood and smiled at her, "or relax Misa, this time, I'm here

legally!"

Misa stopped and stared in surprise at my headband. She smiled,

"congratulations! This is so exciting Yami! I didn't realise the graduation

tests were today! I knew you could do it! Tell me, did you gain the

'rookie of the year' title?"

I sighed, "no, Neji Hyuga got it, the prick." More like I let him get it, heh.

"Oh that's alright," Misa said in a reassuring tone of voice, "now, I'll let

you be, enjoy the genin section, but remember Yami, you can only use

the genin section, nothing else, understood?"

I nodded, "yeah, I got it. Thanks," she smiled as went back to her desk.

I turned to the rows and rows of scrolls before me and smiled, time to

get to work.

I had a week break after the exam, I spent that time working my ass off

reading nearly every book in the genin section. Misa actually had to

ban me from the library on the second day because I refused to leave

and had to be dragged out.

So while my week training was cut short, I ended up with a lot more

interesting jutsus added to my arsenal;

Earth Release: Double Suicide decapitation jutsu, D rank

This technique conceals the user underground and drags the

object of their attack down into the earth, robbing them of their

freedom.

CP cost- 100 CP

Temporary Paralysis jutsu, D rank

A technique that physically restrains an opponent, as if the

opponent had been tied in invisible steel ropes. It debilitates the

victim for a short period of time.

CP cost- 50 CP

Hidden Mist jutsu, D rank

A thick mist springs forth by using a pre-existing water source, or

expelling water from their mouth

CP cost- 75 CP

Fire Release: Dragon fire jutsu, C rank

The user breathes fire along a cord or any other type of long

object, which rushes forward in a straight line catching the enemy

on fire.

CP cost- 150 CP

DMG: 350

Fire Release: Flame Bullet, C rank

The user gathers oil in their mouth which is created by chakra,

spitting it out, and igniting it. This technique simply shoots a

flame bullet at the enemy.

CP cost- 200 CP (for 4 bullets)

DMG- 100 (per bullet)

Fire Release: Phoenix Sage fire, C rank

This technique creates a volley of small fireballs, which are sent

flying in an unpredictable manner assaulting the enemy. They can

be controlled to a certain degree.

CP cost- 50 CP (per fireball)

DMG- 75

Wind Release: Gale Palm, C rank

A simple technique whereby when the user clasps their hands

together, wind is compressed and transformed into a powerful

gale.

CP cost- 50 CP

DMG- 40

Wind Release: Great Breakthrough, C rank

The technique forms a devastation stream of wind expelled from

the user's mouth.

CP cost- 250 CP

DMG- 400 CP

The reason I mainly learnt fire and wind release was because of my

affinity for them I gained special bonuses:

FIRE RELEASE: -90% cost, +100% power

WIND RELEASE: - 20% cost, +25% power

Yup, I'm so looking forward to level up three more times just so that I

can gain a 100% control over wind.

Chapter 59

Anyway, along with the jutsus I also learned a few ninja tricks of the

trade, such as signals and other such secret messaging signals and

other ninja techniques. I needed to train now and since I was an official

genin I could now use the training grounds without issue.

On the third day of my week of R&R I set out for training ground seven.

Finding it way easy enough, I entered the field and immediately found

the three training posts that appeared in the anime. I ran up to it and

sure enough there was a golden leaf just there, I smiled and touched it;

Ping!

Congratulations! You have found a legendary spot: Training

Ground seven!

Locations found in Konoha: 16/30

Treasure map!

+1000 EXP

+ 10 Stat points

Random jutus drop

Okay, first off all, treasure map and the thousand EXP were off the list.

The map would probably lead to money and gold,which I didn't

need...or, it could lead to a random jutus...hm, damn this is tricky.

The stat points were important, it's rare to find free points like this, and

the random jutus drop is emptying as well….ah what the hell, I'll take

the damn treasure map!

Ping!

You have obtained a treasure map!

A scroll spread before me and I quickly grabbed it and looked it over. I

noted a few landmarks, from the looks of things...oh, this is Konoha,

and not only that, according to this map whatever treasure I was

looking for was over the Hokage mountain.

So I quickly put the map away and ran to the directions it asked. I ran

to the Hokage mountain and sighed, I couldn't climb that thing, not right

now. I could use my tree walking skills and climb up the mountain, but

then people would know that a fresh faced genin already knew the tree

walking exercise and all eyes would be on me.

I did not want that.

So the long way around it was.

On top of the monument was actually the high class living distrct of the

village, the richest of the rich. The royalty. The Hyuga's loved her, and

the Senju's, if they still existed that is.

I had to consult the map, but so far it seemed like I'm supposed to be

going deep into the clan district, into the thick forest that existed after

the clan housing space.

I continued to walk until I entered the forest and then kept going until I

ended up near a stone monument that had a white swirl on it and

words underneath;

This stone is a reminder forever to never again be late to save the lives

of our allies and friends. We of the fire swear to make things right by

the Uzumaki clan, protect them and every resident that comes to our

walls. This we swear by the will of Fire.

I smiled, I really have to bring Naruto here. But...WHERE THE HELL IS

MY TREASURE?!

I grumbled as I looked around the stone monument and just when I

was about to give up, I found it. Not one, but two golden leaves!

Yup, treasure indeed!

Ping!

Congratulations! You have found a legendary spot: Uzumaki

stone I!

Locations found in Konoha: 17/30

Select your reward!

+10,000 Ryo

Uzumaki mask

+ 10 Stat points

Random jutsu drop

Money was useless to me. The jutus drop was a game of luck and the

stat points were tempting. But the mask...now that was something that

drew my attention.

If this mask was a part of the uzumaki clan, then it's very very powerful.

It's part of the same family that let's one inhibit the body of death itself,

so…..yeah, I want it.

Ping!

You gained: Uzumaki mask!

A white mask with short white horns on the top spread in my hands.

The mask looked like a female oni, her jaws thin and her features

much more relaxed looking than her angry male counterparts. In

fact...it almost looked like she was smiling.

Her eyes were carved open for one to see through and on the right

side of her face were black flame designs along the checks. Her eyes

were unwrinkled and her mouth unburdened. She smiled at me, like a

joke being whispered in the wind that only she could hear. It

was...haunting to look at.

Oni Mask of Stillness, S class item

This mask was created by the Uzumaki clan making it very

powerful. It is sealed to be unbreakable and forces anyone who

makes eye contact with the wearer to speak be paralyzed.

Limit- only works on enemies at least 10 levels below yours

Okay….I FUCKING LOVE TREASURE HUNTS! FUUUUUCK!

I put the mask in my inventory right away, no way I'm ever going to let

something happen to it. Yes, I know it's technically unbreakable, but

still, mine! And while It's useless right now, I'm sure once I get more

stronger it'll be perfect!

I then moved to the second golden leaf;

Ping!

Congratulations! You have found a legendary spot: Uzumaki

stone II!

Locations found in Konoha: 18/30

Select your reward!

Rare candy

A-rank item drop

+ 10 Stat points

Random jutus drop

Huh...a rare candy. Didn't expect that. And an 'A' ran item, could be an

awesome weapon...or it could be a fancy golden sword. The jutsu drop

was nothing compared to the item drop and the rare candy.

So now...ten points was out, mainly because a rare candy can give me

five points and another level. A rank item was tempting..and given I just

obtained an S rank item means….well, what's the harm right?

Chapter 60

I decided to do a coin flip, it landed on the item drop. Oh well, hopefully

I can get a rare candy later.

Ping!

You have gained an item!

Fourth Hokage's coat, A rank item

The coat Minato Namikaze wore during his last confrontation with

the kyubi.

I held the white coat with red flames licking it's bottom in my hands. It

was torn near the sleeves and had a huge gaping hole in the back

where his title was listed in kanji. His blood...Naruto's father's blood, it

stained the edge of his coat.

According to this history books Minato's battle cloak for that day was

never found...but now it was. I needed to return this to the museum

they had in his honour, it was my duty.

Ping!

Quest Alert!

Return the fabled cloak of the Fourth Hokage!

Rewards:

?

?

?

Failure:

Nothing

Do you accept?

Y/N?

But...but what about Naruto? Didn't he deserve...something?

I looked at the coat, running my fingers down every inch of the item of

legend. And suddenly, I noticed something. I groaned as I looked at the

right sleeves, etched into the sleeve were two names: Kushina, Naruto.

I decided right then and there that the third hokage could go hang.

Naruto deserved a name...just a name, if not his father's, than at least

his mother's. I'm pretty sure what I'm about to do is a crime punishable

by death, but I'm pretty sure Minato will forgive me without thinking

about it for second.

I took out a kunai and cut off his still intact right sleeve, wrapping it up

and putting it away in my inventory. I then wrapped the cloak over my

shoulders and took off into the village and accepted the quest in

question.

As I ran into town people slowly looked at me with surprised eyes.

"Is that the Fourths?"

"Can't be! It's been lost for so long!"

"Why doe this kid have it?"

"Did he rob his grave?"

I ignored the last one as I ran right towards the Hokage office, stopping

at the reception lady who looked at me in utter surprise, "c-can I help

you?"

Mikura Kana, Receptionist

LV- 65

REP- 0

"Yes Mikura," I smiled as I took off the cloak and showed it to her

eliciting a gasp to escape her lips, "I think the Hokage would like to see

this."

She gasped seeing the cloak, she got up, "f-follow me," she said as

she guided me to the Hokage's giant office doors.

She knocked on the door twice and opened it, "pardon the intrusion

lord Hokage."

"Mikura?" the old man inside asked, "what's the matter? I told you I

shouldn't be disturbed."

"Yes sir but...I believe you will want to see this," she then moved away

and motioned to me.

I walked through and found myself in the Hokage's office with the third

surrounded by several jounins, and how did I know that you ask?

Because I can't read any of their levels. Plus Kakashi was with them.

"Yami?" the Third asked surprised, "what can I do for you?"

"Actually, it's more like what I can do for you," I held up the clock,

displaying it for everyone to see.

"Where did you find that?"

I flinched in surprise as I noticed Kakashi suddenly right next to me, "I-I

found it by the Uzumaki stone at the edge of the village."

Kakashi looked at me with a dull eye before turning to the cloak, "may

I?"

I nodded, "sure," I handed him the cloak and watched him examine it.

"Amazing," Sarutobi said as he along with the other jonin sensei's all

approached Kakashi looking at the clock. He then turned to me with a

smile, "you have done a big service to your village Yami...I heard you

just graduated yes?"

I chuckled, "yeah...isn't that why all these joins are here? One of them

is to be my future sensei yes?"

The third chuckled, "observant as always Yami. Yes, that is correct."

"You tore a piece of this cloak," Kakashi spoke up suddenly looking at

me with one eye.

I turned to him and smiled, "what makes you think that?"

"This hear," he pointed at the right shoulder, "someone used a kunai to

cut up apart."

I blinked, "really? That's surprising. It was whole when I first found

it….someone must have snuck up behind me and cut it on my way

here...you know...to keep as a momento."

Lie Failed!

Kakashi obviously didn't believe me, but instead of catching me on it he

just nodded, "is that so...well, that's too bad. You weren't even able to

safely bring deliver something, I was lead to believe you were a very

smart genin, guess you were nothing but a mediocre ninja."

I raised an eyebrow, was he really trying to bait me. Whatever. I

shrugged, "hey, blame the old man, he's the one who allowed me to

skip ahead a year. Maybe his mind's so dull due to old age he saw a

mediocre ninja like me as something special."

"Oh, lord Hokage, someone is being very disrespectful," Kakashi gave

a hollow chuckle.

"Yes, and his name is Kakashi Hatake, the man who questioned your

orders," I replied glaring at the man.

The copy ninja looked at me and I didn't back down, not for one

second. Finally Sarutobi broke the stare down with a soft but

commanding tone, "that's enough, both of you."

I sighed, "right. Sorry."

Kakashi didn't reply, he took the coat and turned to the Hokage, "I'll be

putting this into his display case along with his other possessions," and

then he left a whirl of leaves.
