NOVEL NEXT Chapter 53: Raichi's Family
He walked out of his tent and headed towards Fugaku and the others, who looked at him with weird expressions on their faces.
At first, he was a medical ninja who could do the same amount of work as a full team of medical ninja by himself, which earned him a lot of respect from the people he had helped until now, but after the recent incident?
Who knew what was going on in their heads?
Just when everyone was about to rush in to fight the hidden sand shinobi, the hyuga clansmen lifted his hand up and announced, "They're retreating, but based on the chakra flow, it looks like they've lost most of their puppets. I barely see any strings attached to their fingers."
Fugaku looked at the sand shinobi who were running away and nodded, "It's a pity that they got used to our fire release long ago. If not, I'm sure that Kira could have burn every single one of them to ashes like we did an year ago."
'So that's the reason why they used earth domes instead of walls. To insulate themselves from fire, but I would've been able to cook them if I had more chakra.' Kira thought when he heard Fugaku.
After all, he was actually surprised when he saw them perfectly countering his fire release. Even though their puppets were destroyed, they still managed to preserve their lives.
Originally, he wanted to give them severe burns so that he could show off his talent and make a name for himself, but seeing his attack getting countered didn't really feel too bad as it worked out for him in the end.
Without saying much, he headed back to his tent with a slight smile on his face as he knew that he'd have free time for the next three days, which meant that he could use all of his chakra to empower the seal on his forehead.
For now, he felt tired and simply wanted to go to bed, so that's exactly what he did.
He had originally expected a free time of two to four days, but even after seven entire days, there was no sign of attack. He still had multiple achievements to accomplish so he could get more character points, but he knew that he couldn't force things.
He still had the achievement of healing 100 people and 1000 people. As for missions, there was the 100 missions and 1000 missions achievements. There were other missions related to killing too.
Kill 50 people
Kill 500 people
Kill 5000 people
Kill 50 Shinobi
Kill 500 Shinobi
Kill 5000 Shinobi
Kill 5 Jonin
Kill 20 Jonin
Kill 50 Jonin
Kill 100 Jonin
Kill 200 Jonin
Kill 1 Kage
Kill 2 Kage
Kill 3 Kage
These achievements could be overlapped. For example, killing one Kage would count as one shinobi and one person. Unfortunately, it didn't work on Jonin, but Kira didn't really care too much about it as he could hunt them down in the future if he couldn't manage to reach the target of 200.
The main problem was Kage achievements as it only counted if he killed the person who was a kage in current times and not someone with kage level strength.
'Oh well, I'll do what I can and see how things go for now. Some things really are out of my control, but I should be able to kill two Kage during this war if my plans work well.' he thought as he walked out of his tent so he could freshen up and get some food.
"Kira, come here."
Hearing the familiar voice, Kira turned around and saw Raichi standing beside a woman while carrying a small girl. Beside the couple, was another family with a similar family composition.
He ran over to them and once he did, Raichi introduced the people beside him.
"This child here is my daughter. She's four years old, but she's already pretty good at our clan's shurikenjutsu." Raichi said as he bumped his nose with his daughter's before continuing, "We named her Eiko, isn't she cute?"
Kira nodded without saying much. Indeed, she was cute, but he didn't really understand why Raichi wanted to introduce his family to him.
"And this is my wife Haruki," he pointed at the woman beside him before pointing at the other guy, "this man is her brother and that means he's my brother in law. His name is Hazuki and his daughter Izumi is only two years old but she already knows how to hold a kunai."
Kira's eyes went wide when he heard the girl's name. Izumi, who didn't know of that name? Every single Naruto fan knew her even though she got less screen time than Tenten.
Seeing Kira's reaction, Hazuki smirked, "Impressive, isn't it? Tell me Kira, you're like the current generation's genius other than Kakashi, but no one really knows about the feats in your childhood."
The corner of Kira's lips twitched as he remembered his most memorable but also the most cringe worthy time of his life. As for impressive things that he managed to achieve in his childhood? There really wasn't anything impressive as he only started to seriously train once he turned four years old.
He looked up at Hazuki and shook his head, "My grandpa says that the first time I grabbed a kunai, I was six months old. Though, due to the lack of strength, I almost cut myself. Your daughter is clearly more impressive when it comes this."
"Hahahah isn't it? She's my lovely little squirrel."
Kira nodded before turning to look at Raichi, giving him a confused took to which his sensei simply shrugged, "I just wanted to introduce you to my family. I've been boasting about you for years, so they were kinda curious. Especially this Hazuki, he's very jealous of me for finding a gem like you."
Saying this, he smirked at he looked at Hazuki, who humphed in return before placing his hand on his wife's shoulder.
"Anyways, since the meeting is done, I'll go spend some time with my family before something unexpected happens. I'll catch up with you guys later." the man said before leaving with his wife.
