Naruto: Systematic Shinobi

Chapter 38: The Land Of Loot - 1

"…What are you doing?" the familiar voice of Sasuke asked.

Daiki would have loved to answer. Sadly, he could not, because he was currently being crushed under the scaly foot of a huge fifty foot, pink scaled chameleon.

"He is trying and failing to live up to the name of a Chameleon summoner," Toka, the youngest daughter of Shiromari helpfully supplied, "His sensory abilities are atrocious, much worse than our last summoner I'm told."

That hurt, right in the pride.

"And that's why he's wearing a blindfold?" he heard Sasuke ask, deadpan. Or maybe he was just asking normal, that was kind of normal for him to be honest.

"Indeed, though it looks like our training has been cut short for the day with your arrival," Toka hummed, "Let us resume another day then Daiki-san." he heard the familiar sound of smoke puffing, and then the weight squishing him into the dirt disappeared utterly.

Sighing in annoyance, Daiki sat up in the crater his body had made in the ground, and reached up to pull off the blindfold he was wearing.

"Having fun?" Sasuke asked, all raised eyebrows and amused smirk on his face.

"Nope," he answered dryly and pushed himself up, shaking off the ache in his bones, "Ever since I showed I had enough chakra now to summon the boss, he assigned me to his daughter and has had her coming around every day for the past few weeks for a few hours to help me train my sensing abilities."

He'd found, that as far as chakra units went, it cost a total of twenty five thousand to summon Shiromari, more than half his current full capacity.

Oh well, at least he'd been accepted by the clan now. He didn't know how, but they had been watching him, and Shiromari had declared that him giving up the chance to have another powerful summoning clan at his beck and call, showed how loyal of a person he was, worthy of the clan.

…And immediately declared right after, that he was also an embarrassment with how poor his sensory abilities were.

The dick. How the hell did he even have kids if he'd spent the last fifty years stuck as a castle?

"And how is that going for you?" Sasuke asked, smirk growing, tauntingly.

He knew it wasn't going well at all. You could take the Uchiha out of the prick, but you could never remove the prick from an Uchiha.

…Whatever the hell that meant.

"I'd love to see you try to sense someone that could remove all sound they make, turn pretty much invisible and remove their scent as well, then fight them blind folded," Daiki snorted, "So what brings you here? Back for another ass kicking?"

That removed the smirk from his face right quick.

"No, I'm not here to toss you around today," the other boy shrugged, "Kakashi left us to solo train today, but Sakura was particularly clingy, so I gave her the slip at my place and came here since I knew you'd still be training here."

"I'm just about done for the day as well anyway," Daiki mused, "I'm gonna hit up the shopping district, I need to up my weights again, and I've put off buying new weapons to replace the ones you destroyed."

Beyond filling up his kitchen and shit to last him, for the last twenty days since he got back from the Waterfall Village, he'd thrown himself back into the grind. And not only because he needed to get stronger so what happened in Waterfall didn't happen again.

But, also because he had a bunch of new Jutsu to get down in the meantime. He'd accomplished much in the last twenty days. Not only had he finished up learning the chakra flow technique, he'd also gotten down the Wave Emission Technique from Fu, granted, he'd only been able to transmit a few clipped words to her, while she could have an entire minute long conversation in his head…

But he was getting there.

And she sure did love to talk. Every few hours she'd send him a transmission chattering about something. Her favourite topic so far, was complaining about Rainemaru and how much of a prick he was.

She was having a bit of trouble earning the fish's respect.

But she was doing alright at least, which was of the good.

And on top of that, it hadn't taken him long to get down the jutsu Kakashi had found on the body of that Rain lady…who's name he didn't recall.

And lucky for him, it was a nifty C-rank Lightning Jutsu. Lightning Style: Elekiter. A single hand seal rather fast jutsu that generated a powerful electric current around the users palms, used with a palm thrust.

And worked very well with the Force Palm Jutsu.

It was incredible how coincidental it was he got a jutsu like that, and made him wonder idly if it was actually Kakashi just giving him it as a reward for being a dick, but in the end, Daiki didn't care.

Beyond Sasuke coming to spar him with, he hadn't saw much of anyone else, Hinata popped by twice, but only stayed for a little while, because her team was running quite a lot of missions lately, and Tenten only once, the day after he got back, because her sensei apparently wanted to take their whole team on a month long training trip outside the village.

Probably in preparation for the Chunin Exams.

The time to himself, had done wonders for his overall abilities though, that was for sure.

[Name: Daiki Yurei]

[Age: 13]

[Chakra Capacity: 49,200/49,200 (Jonin)]

[Strength: 110/510]

[Endurance: 160/510]

[Durability: 110/510]

[Agility: 110/510]

[Taijutsu: 175/500]

[Ninjutsu: 195/500]

[Genjutsu: 10/500]

[Bukijutsu: 75/500]

[Chakra Control: 195/500]

[Chakra Affinities:]

[Lightning - (Adept): You have stepped onto the path of roaring thunder.]

[Fuinjutsu - (Journeyman): The world breathes.]

…He honestly had no idea what to think of his Fuinjutsu stat to be honest. He'd spent hours every day pouring over the copy of the Four Symbol Seal, learning every little bit of it he could, and when he finally came to fully understand it just two days ago, his Fuinjutsu had rose from Adept to Journeyman.

And seriously, what was up with that cryptic bullshit? 'The world breathes', like, okay? But why though? It seriously felt like the system was just spouting random gibberish to mess with him.

'At least my chakra capacity has reached Jonin-tier.' he sighed inwardly. Thankfully, there was no Elite-Chunin tier.

"Planning on going on a mission?" Sasuke asked.

"Something like that." Daiki shrugged. Now that he had the Four Symbols Seal and could inscribe it fluently, he was planning on putting his plan to the test.

"Alright, let's go then," Sasuke shrugged, "I need to buy a few more Demon Windmill Shuriken anyway."

"What's with your obsession with those by the way?" Daiki found himself asking as the pair of them left the training ground behind and headed out back into the village towards the shopping district.

In the end, he would see the most growth if he went after Isobu early. He had a limited time frame to do it in either way, and he doubted he'd get strong enough for the end game if he didn't do it early.

Besides, he also doubted he'd be strong enough to beat Isobu down and force him either way, so the only option left, was convincing him.

Which could be a problem, considering he was hiding at the bottom of a massive, massive lake and Daiki didn't fancy his chances in jumping in and swimming down to him.

Seriously, meet the leviathan in the depths? No thank you.

Thankfully, Fu had solved that issue for him, else he would have had to sit at the edge of the lake and shout the Bijuu's name over and over and hope he drew its attention.

…The only way he had of making this happen, was letting Isobu know what was going to happen in the future roughly, and then convincing the Bijuu to become his partner so they could become strong enough together to deal with what was coming.

He knew for a fact Isobu definitely did not want to become a part of the Juubi again.

And if he did join willingly, well, a willing Bijuu, meant he would have instant access. And with Isobu backing him up, he could deal with Raiga and Ranmaru, and then while he was at it, he could bum rush the Village of Artisans who were also in the Land of Rivers.

Those guys who at the end of part one, went after Gaara with a bunch of incredibly powerful chakra weapons like those Soaring Shortswords that let the chick using them out-wind jutsu Temari, and use Shukaku's chakra drawn from Gaara, to revive their dead leader.

And it all came together with that. Raiga teaming up with them to revive that leader, using Ranmaru's eyes to capture Isobu, in return for them them turning the Kiba blades into super weapons far beyond what they were currently using the Bijuu's power as well.

In one fell swoop, he would become a Jinchuuriki, have full access to the power of a Bijuu, gain a pair of incredibly powerful Doujutsu eyes, one of the legendary sets of swords from the Mist and a bunch of other powerful chakra weapons.

It was the perfect plan.

Walking beside Sasuke, Daiki's lips twisted into a massive grin.
