43. One shot kill!!
Woof!!
Tsume's dog was pointing in another direction though.
...
The rasengan had effortlessly tore through the ground and made contact with the shinobi hidden underneath. In no more than a second of time, the very basic but intense ball of chakra scraped the skin, flesh, and bones of the target.
If he was attacked a few inches to the left or right then he would have survived, but the rasengan gaped a football size hole in the target's chest, instantly finishing him off.
"Dead??" Reko uttered in surprise, he had made preparations for the opponent's next move, having forgotten that a clean hit would instantly finish the shinobi, even high jonin and a few kage level would suffer similarly.
Though, he was happy inside that he got to take on his enemy with such ease. No matter the rank of the opponent, a shinobi sneaking upon Tsume while she took bath would have gone terrible.
'Another enemy?' Just when he was about to check on the body of the dead shinobi, he happened to notice Tsume and her ninja beast heading to other direction, prepared for combat.
Reko also signaled his clones to be prepared while he himself watched out for the opponent from his position.
'The traces of rasengan! I need to hide them.' It would be problematic if his skills were exposed. So, he performed a fire release jutsu to dispose of the traces left by his rasengan, incinerating the shinobi.
"Anko you??" Tsume shouted half in surprise and half in relief. She had gotten out of the water, ready to fight the enemy, but the one her ninja dog was barking at was her ally from the same village.
'Her weapon smells of blood... Was she the one who was fighting against that intruder?' Tsume thought as her sensitive nose picked up a familiar smell on Anko.
"You dealt with him? I have been searching for him, but he was hidden deeply from the past two days!!" Anko saw Reko performing a fire release jutsu, killing the enemy swiftly as two clones stood close to Reko.
She had been hunting the enemy Jonin for almost two days. She had exhausted herself but the enemy was injured successfully.
The enemy Jonin did not want to risk his life and decided to hide and wait till Anko gave up. He was a low Jonin who had not expected to encounter the student of a legendary Sannin.
Unfortunately for the enemy, Anno specialized in tracking and combat, making it hard for him to stay hidden and recover his health. The situation kept worsening for the Jonin, causing him to hide underground.
And the worst happened when he least expected it. He was laying low, suppressing his chakra but Reko finished him in one sneak attack.
The Jonin did not even get a chance to retaliate. The instant he realised that Reko and Tsume had found his traces, Reko was already upon him with his Rasengan.
After finishing the shinobi hidden underground, Reko checked the prompt from the system screen.
...
[Senju physique level 1]
+2000 CP
+100% recovery (CP)
+100% regeneration
+100% strength
...
'This feeling!! This feeling of gaining strength!' Reko concentrated on his body, his chakra, strength, and vitality seemed to grow significantly and it was not just a feeling.
Reko was able to see it on the system screen. The message informed him of the generous increase of his various stats by the Senju physique, the reward from the quest.
'This Senju physique is extraordinary! It upgrades my body as a whole. Be it regeneration, chakra reserves, recovery, or the physical strength.' Reko thought to himself as he relished the vitality coursing through his body.
Just the increase in Chakra and the rate of recovery alone was more than worth it. He had also gotten a hundred percent increase in strength and regeneration, meaning that his strength successfully reached low Jonin level.
But that was not all, for the very first time, Reko had gotten a Jonin level charge after killing the enemy. This meant, he could copy a rasengan level ninjutsu in an instant.
He was able to learn Shadow clone jutsu with two chunin level charges which resulted in increase in level too. He believed that a Jonin level charge would be able to make his proficiency the same level as of his target's.
Coming out of those thoughts, Reko decided to take a look at Tsume.
'She is Anko?!!' Reko glanced at the silhouette of two woman discussing with each other.
'What a babe!! She is really wearing nothing under that mesh like armour.' Anko was wearing a short skirt on her waist which barely covered her butt, and a net like dress for the full body, with a cardigan on the fishnet to cover it all up teasingly.
Together with the half naked Tsume, the scene was really erotic for Reko. He could not resist taking a good look at the two ladies.
"Two days? Was he a Jonin?" Tsume asked in surprise, she knew of Anko's strength, there was no way a Chunin level shinobi would be able to escape for two days from her.
"Yeah! I had injured him, causing him to hide like this under the ground." Anko nodded, and explained that the opponent was indeed a Jonin who was injured by her.
"But what a surprise! I did not expect to find him already dead." Anko said, she had rushed to the location instantly when she heard the pained cry of her target. But Anko only saw Reko burning her target with his ninjutsu while the half naked Tsume and her ninja dog dashed towards her.
"Yeah, even I found his traces a little late." Tsume said with a smile as she glanced at Reko with gratitude and admiration. He had saved her from being critically injured.
'He did that attack?' Anko was unsure but seeing Tsume look at Reko like that, she realised that Reko was the one who dealt with the opponent. There were no trace of intense battle, just a single powerful ninjutsu.
'How did I not know of him? He is good looking and his chakra is intensely radiating, as if he is showing off his power.' Anko glanced at Reko's body carefully, licking her lips seductively with evident desire.
