His status appeared once more the only difference was his health and chakra had risen.
Health: 100/110
Chakra: 115/130
Looks like eating, restored my health and chakra.
Now how do I check the other features of my ultimate system...
Inventory....
Nothing happened.
System how do I check inventory?
To check inventory you have to say "system inventory".
Oh! It responded!
"System inventory"
As soon as he said it, a 30 slot inventory opened up in front of him just like the stats screen.
Oh, there is something here.
Let's see what it is.
"Light Release for noobs"
Type: skill book
Description: Light Release fundamentals, on use let's the user learn "Light bullet jutsu"
What's with that name? Should I learn it?
If I do learn it, it proves the system or whoever left this book here right.
Am I a noob?
After some self reflection Dante decided to learn it.
Better to have a jutsu I can use for combat than to rely on the academy taught jutsu's.
"Learned Light bullet jutsu"
Description: shoots out a small Light bullet.
Cooldowns: 6 seconds.
Cost 15 chakra per bullet.
Lv0 exp 0/100
15 chakra and 6 second cooldown, not too bad.
Moving on for now.
System how do I enter dungeons?
To enter dungeons you have to say "System dungeon list" after that you select a dungeon to enter.
"System dungeon list" a screen popped up displaying a list of dungeons he can enter.
1.Zombie apocalypse.
2.Requirements not met
3.Requirements not met
4.Requirements not met
...
...
System how do dungeons work?
Dungeons are alternate spaces where you complete the objective to earn rewards.
They can be done solo, or in a party.
As long as the requirements to enter are met you can enter once per week for free.
Alternatively you can acquire keys to enter at will.
Keys can be acquired through quests or in dungeons, rarely as drops. They can also be a part of dungeon rewards.
Upon choosing a dungeon a small portal will be opened, you and your party will have 2 minutes to enter.
Once inside the portal will not allow entry or exit until you complete the objective or fail.
You will not die in the dungeons, but if you fail you will be penalized. Penalties can range from a drop in stats or exp to level drops or lost loot.
Ok, so 1 free entry per week, other people will notice when I open a dungeon and I can bring others to help.
I better be careful, no one can find out about this.
Especially not Danzo or Hiruzen.
I wouldn't want to end up in a cage or a lab table after all.
Or worse, in root with multiple seals placed on me.
"System quests"....
A screen popped up with a list of quests.
"Noob Training"
Description: Daily training for noobs.
100 pushups
100 squats
2 mile run
Reward: 2 free stat point.
Time remaining 5 hours.
This quest will reset daily as long as the user is below level 11.
After reading the quest description Dante sat up.
Oh shit, I have to go do this quest.
No way am I missing out on 2 stats.
First I'll do the pushups and squats, only 100 of each pretty easy.
Dante got up off his bed and started stretching. After he did a couple stretches he began doing pushups.
To his surprise they were harder than he remember.
Oh yea, this body is still malnourished.
After struggling to finish the pushups, he began doing squats.
After some time Dante was panting for breath.
Damn, this body sucks. I'm gonna take a break before I go do this 2 mile run.
After 15 minutes Dante got up.
He put on his sandals and headed out.
Once outside he stretched a bit before he started jogging.
Surprisingly he could jog longer than he thought he would.
Must be because of the academy forced running.
"Ding" Quest complete "Noob Training"
Rewards: 2 free stats.
As Dante heard the notification he stopped jogging.
Alright sweet, I'll head home and use these points.
Dante back in his apartment opened the stats screen and used his 2 free points.
1 in strength and 1 in agility. Putting his strength at 3 and his agility at 2.
Immediately he felt stronger.
After spending his stat points he looked at his jutsu's, I'll need to level up the academy jutsu's.
There is only 1 month left of academy and I need to be able to perform the jutsu's to graduate.
After some thought he decided to train the academy jutsu's.
Looks like the easiest to train will be the transformation jutsu, since it's a lower cooldown.
Alright let's begin some training.
Starting with transformation jutsu, then I'll use clone jutsu. I'll cycle those 2 jutsu's off cooldown.
I need to be hit for substitution jutsu and I don't wanna set the place on fire by shooting out Light bullets.
On the first use of his jutsu's he checked how much experience he got for using the jutsu's.
Transformation jutsu exp lv0 76/100
Clone jutsu lv0 exp 86/100
1 experience for using the jutsu's.
So if my math is right, I should level up transformation jutsu in about 30 minutes and clone jutsu in about an hour.
After the quick calculation he decided to try the leaf concentration practice.
He quickly went outside and grabbed a random leaf.
After which he sat down on the floor and put the leaf on his forehead and concentrated all his chakra on it.
After some failures he finally got the leaf to stick.
"Ding" skill learned
Chakra control: lv0
Passive: Reduces chakra consumption by 0%.
Alright sweet!!
So for the next hour he practiced the leaf concentration practice and used transformation jutsu and clone jutsu on cooldown.
And hour later he leveled up transformation jutsu to level2 and clone jutsu to level 1.
Transformation jutsu lvl2 exp 172/200
Cooldown: 2 minutes
Chakra cost: 10
Clone jutsu lvl 1 exp 1/200
Cooldown: 30 seconds
Chakra cost: 10
At the same time he managed to get level 1 in chakra control.
That boosted the passive effect from 0% to 1%!
Since my jutsu's have cooldowns it gives me enough time to replenish my chakra in-between cooldowns.
After he thought for a while, he decided he would try out the dungeon.
So he went into his bathroom and shut the door.
"System dungeon list"
1.Zombie apocalypse
...
Then he selected Zombie apocalypse and a small blue portal appeared.
As Dante stare at the portal he hesitated.
Then he remembered, in this world he has power.
Not any significant power, not yet at least, but enough power to kill a couple zombies.
So after 20 seconds he entered the portal.
Zombie apocalypse: objective kill all zombies 0/100
Dante read the objective and smiled.
100 zombies that's not too bad if I don't let them swarm me or corner me I can do this.
After a 10 second count down the zombies started appearing.
To which Dante used "Light bullet" on the first zombie he saw shooting it in the head and ran away.
He quickly checked the exp gain.
Dante: lvl1 exp 1/100
Light Release lv0 exp 2/100
Light bullet lv0 exp 2/100
So that's how I can level up my Light Release.
I just have to use Light jutsu.
Now then I wonder did the zombie give me 1 exp or 5 but split amongst the skills I used and my level....
If I had another attack skill I could check.
I don't even have basic taijutsu taught at the academy, so I can't just check by killing one with my fists.
I don't even wanna try, there are still 99 zombie left in the pack.
After finishing his thought he used Light bullet and shot another zombie in the head and continued running.
I'm surprised they die in one hit, is it because of the power of my jutsu or because I hit them in the head?...
I'll have to check on the last zombie, I can't afford to not kill a zombie per use of Light bullet.
At 15 chakra per use, I'll run out of chakra way before I kill them all.
This is gonna take a while, I should have brought a weapon with me.
Good thing this is an extermination dungeon and not a time based one.
I'll keep sniping them and running away until I get low on chakra.
I'll keep enough chakra to use substitution jutsu, just in case I let them get too close.
All I have to do is be patient and run away while I snipe them until there is only a few left.
They aren't fast zombies so it's not a big struggle.
After some time there were 3 zombies left Dante stopped running around and decided he would shoot one in the leg and one in the chest.
They were both still alive, so this confirms if.
They only die if I shoot them in the head.
I wonder if that applies to me, I mean I have a "health" stat but will that matter if someone choppes off my head?
I don't think it will, while I do have a "health" stat, if someone stabs me in the heart or head I'll mostly likely die.
I'm not about to risk my life on the possibility that I won't.
After a bit of time Dante killed the 2 wounded zombies with his Light bullets and shot the last one in the leg.
He then checked his exp gains.
Dante level:1 exp 99/100
Light Release lvl1 exp 100/200
Light bullet lvl1 exp 100/200
Alright, last one.
Dante then kicked the last one till it died.
"Dungeon complete"
Score B
Zombies killed 100/100
Rewards: Double cast skill scroll
Double cast
Description: Upon use next skill or jutsu will have its effect used twice for the price of one.
Cooldown: 1 minute
Chakra cost: 0
Upon exiting the dungeon Dante heard a notification.
"Ding" level up
Dante:level 2 exp 0/200
Strength:3 +2
Agility:2 +1
Spirit:3 +3
Constitution:1+3
Intelligence:2 +1
Health: 140/140
Chakra: 160/160
10 stats total!!
Dante was surprised, he didn't expect his stats to go up by 10 total.
2 in strength, 3 spirit and 3 Constitution.
What sort of bloodline did he create.
After a few seconds of shock, Dante got out of the bathroom and used the "double cast" skill book.
Then after a second look he noticed something, the skill didn't have a level.
Then he remembered he has a talent.
"Limit break"
So he tried using his talent on the skill.
Would you like to use "Limit break" on "Double cast"?
Yes/No
Dante clicked "Yes"
"The limit for double cast has be broken"
"Double cast" has evolved into"Triple cast"
"Triple cast"
Description: upon use next skill or jutsu will have its effect used thrice for the price of one.
Dante was surprised again.
He didn't even use "Double cast" once and now it was "Triple cast".
Then he looked at "Limit break"
"Limit break"
Cooldown: 2 weeks
2 week cooldown, that's not too bad.
Well, I don't have anything else to limit break currently.
I better head to bed, I have class tomorrow.
...
...
Dante woke up in the morning, the first thing he noticed was his body.
It was a bit more muscular.
After which he prepared himself to go to class.
As he exited his apartment, he heard whispers again.
The same as last night.
He couldn't really blame the people.
His appearance was different after all.
He did however notice, most people whispering about him were normal civilians, and children.
The ninjas walking on the street mostly ignored him.
Which thinking about, it made sense.
Ninjas see different kinds of people, from all over the world.
Where as normal civilians live in the village all their live and most never see the outside world.
As he continued making his way to the ninja academy he contemplated.
I should try to stay below level 11, after all 2 stats per day can really add up.
On the other hand, intentionally remaining weak in this world isn't a good idea either.
Especially when I become a gennin.
The more time passes the more dangerous staying weak will be.
As he was lost in thought, he unknowingly arrived at the academy.
He then bumped into someone on the street.
Hey, watch where your going weakling.
It was a guy, a kid from his class.
"Taka Inuzuka" and his dog Dorgo.
Sorry, my bad I was lost in thought.
This guy bullied the previous host of this body.
Nothing serious just always called him a weakling and made fun of his appearance.
Whatever, just watch where your going.
Next time I won't be so lenient.
Then Dorgo barked at Dante.
Taka Inuzuka then walked past Dante, bumping him in the shoulder as he walked by.
To his surprise though Dante didn't fall to the ground like usual.
Dante ignored him and noticed he was at the academy.
Walking into the class he sat down where he usually did.
He saw Sora Nara and Haro Akimichi and nodded at the individually.
Sora ignored him and Haro nodded back with a smile.
Then Dante looked around some more.
He noticed all the kids wore shirts with their clan symbol on them. Which made it easy to distinguish between clan kids and civilian kids.
Besides Sora there was another Nara in his class, a boy.
His name was Take Nara, one of Sora's cousins.
There was also a Hyuga girl.
Her name was Megumi Hyuga.
She was about 4ft 8inches with the usual Hyuga "pale eyes" and black blue hair.
There was also a boy from the Yamanaka clan.
His name was Agui Yamanaka, he had blonde hair and green eyes.
He was about 5ft 2inches and he was sitting next to Haro.
The rest of the kids in his class didn't have clan symbols on their cloths.
Then a boy and a girl walked in.
Dante glanced over to have a look and was surprised.
They were both wearing shirts with the senju clan symbol on them.
What the hell is this. They are still around.
If the senju are still around does that mean the Uchiha's are still around?
What else is different in this world?
This changes things...
Not by much, but I can't rely on the knowledge from the show too much.
After awhile, the teacher stepped in.
He was a chunin about 5ft 8inches.
Wearing usually chunin vest and ninja gear.
His name was Lanko Sarutobi.
All right class, there is only one month left until the graduation exam.
Use this next month to master the 3 academy jutsu's.
You are all free to practice on academy grounds.
Everyone cheered.
There weren't going to be anymore lectures after all.
All right settle down everyone, this doesn't mean you can all go home.
You all have to remain on academy grounds like usual.
If you have any questions, or need help don't hesitate to ask.
Once the teacher was done speaking Dante went up to Haro.
Hey Haro, can you help me with some taijutsu practice?
To be honest with you I don't know any taijutsu.
Oh hey Dante, sure I can help you Agui, Take and I were going to go practice in the field anyway.
You can join us. Will that be alright Agui and Take?
Yeah, fine by me said Agui
Doesn't matter to me as long as he doesn't interrupt my nap said Take.
...
They headed to the academy training grounds.
Once there Take found a tree, layed down under it and closed his eyes.
That left Agui, Haro and Dante on the field.
Alright let's practice taijutsu first said Haro.
Agui you and Dante can practice first and we'll keep switching once someone gets tired.
Ok, no problem.
Then Haro left the field and stood under the same tree Take was under.
Go easy on me Agui, I'm not really good at taijutsu said Dante.
To which Agui said no problem.
Once the both did some stretching, the stood across from each other.
Then with some surprising speed Agui made the first move, he quickly dashed toward Dante and kicked to the the side.
Dante quickly moved back to avoid the kick and truck with a counter punch at Agui to the face.
Agui then ducked under the punch and punched Dante in the stomach.
Dante was too slow to dodge and got hit, but he quickly sent out an upper.
Agui dodged to the left and punched Dante again, this time on the chin.
Dante got hit again and stumbled a little.
Agui not letting up on the attack went for a low sweep to trip up Dante before he could catch his bearings.
Dante then used substitution jutsu to not get hit by the low sweep.
Agui not angered at all by the use of a jutsu quickly stepped forward towards Dante and continued the attack.
Dante having put a bit of distance between them stabilized himself and prepared for another attack.
Agui kicked out again at Dantes side but this time Dante didn't move back to avoid it, instead he moved into the kick taking it and at the same time he grabbed Agui and quickly slammed him on the floor.
After Agui got over the surprise of being grabbed he quickly punched Dante in the face two times, to which Dante loosened his grip on Agui.
Agui then shoved Dante off him and stood up.
Dante was on the ground gasping and in pain from taking the kick and being punched in the face a couple times but there was a smile on his face.
Haro then stepped in and started to fight Agui.
Dante took the time to check his exp gain for substitution jutsu.
Substitution jutsu lvl0 exp 80/100
As he was looking at it he noticed he got a new skill.
"Scrappy" lv0
Passive: Learn taijutsu based skills 0% faster.
To his surprise he got 10 exp for using substitution jutsu one time in the fight.
He also got the skill "Scrappy" which he assumes is a taijutsu.
Created because he doesn't know how to fight.
After a while Dante got up Haro and Agui were still fighting so he took the time to walk over to the tree Take was at.
Man, you really suck at taijutsu said Take.
Dante then looked at him and said, I thought you were taking a nap.
I was, but when someone takes an ass beating as bad as you did it's difficult to keep sleeping.
Hahaha, yea I guess you're right.
Are you going to be fighting as well?
Since you're awake now asked Dante.
Nah, I think I'll just keep chilling.
Then Dante heard Haro yell at him.
Dante! Your back in!
To which Dante looked over and saw Agui laying on the floor just like he had a while ago.
Then Dante looked at Take and take said that's all you man don't let me stop you.
Then Dante looked back at Haro and charged at him.
Once Dante was near Haro he jumped and kicked toward Haro.
Haro simply moved aside and started punching Dante.
Dante did his best to avoid the punches.
He noticed Haro was slower than Agui, not by much but enough so that he wouldn't get hit with all the punches thrown at him.
The after getting punched once on his side and blocking two punches Dante lashed out and tried grabbing Haro, just like he did with Agui.
But to his horror Haro just stood there.
As Dante was trying to pick him up he finally realized how dumb that move was.
Haro was big. Like really big and really heavy.
Agui was small and so he was easily picked up.
Just as Dante was about to disengage Haro picked Dante up and slammed him onto the ground.
As Dante hit the ground the air was knocked out of him.
After a couple seconds he got up, he wasn't really hurt by the slam but it sure didn't feel good to have the air knocked out of you.
Then he charged towards Haro, in response Haro also closed the distance.
Once again Dante found himself on the defensive.
This time he took the opportunity to use the substitution jutsu again and appeared above Haro.
He then launched a kick downward hitting Haro on the right shoulder.
Then Haro charged at him as if he wasn't even hurt by that hit.
So after some time.
Both Agui and Dante were completely out of energy and Haro was still on the field looking energetic.
Some more time passed and they went at it again.
Soon it was time to go home.
Thanks a lot Haro and Agui, I learned a lot from you two today.
Not a problem, we also learned a lot from the spars said Haro.
You should join us again tomorrow said Agui.
Alright sounds good to me, I'll see you guys tomorrow.
As Dante left Haro spoke to Take.
What do you think Take?
He improved a lot, faster than most.
Yeah I noticed too said Agui.
...
...
As Dante walked back home he stopped at a near by shop and bought some groceries.
Eggs, potatoes, cup ramen and some vegetables.
That all he could afford at the moment.
Damn, I really need to make some money.
Dante thought as he walked home with his groceries.
Once home Dante put away his groceries and cooked some cup noodles.
After his meal, he checked his progress for the day.
Substitution jutsu lvl3 exp 100/300
Scrappy: lvl 3
Passive: learn taijutsu based skills 3% faster.
Fighting all day and using the substitution jutsu really payed off.
Looks like scrappy leveled up as well, although I wonder why it doesn't have an exp bar, actually chakra control doesn't either.
Maybe because they have passive effects.
Dante then prepared himself to do his daily quest.
100 pushups
100 squats
2 mile run
He started with pushups, noticing they where much easier than yesterday.
Then squats, also easier than yesterday.
Final he went outside and started running.
After he got his two points he put them on strength and agility respectful.
He then went home and took a shower.
After his shower he got dressed and went out.
Now then, how do I make money.
I'm not a ninja so I can't take missions.
I only need enough money till I graduate and then I can take on missions.
The amount of groceries I bought will last me a week, two if I ration it.
I need more calories though so that's not really an option.
As he was walking and thinking, out of the corner of his eye he saw Sora.
He walked up to her.
He Sora, how's it going?.
Oh, Dante don't tell me you came to ask for more money.
No haha, not this time.
Damn, how did she know Dante thought to himself.
I actually was just walking and I noticed you.
Do you have any ideas on how I can make money?
Have you tried asking villagers if they need help with something?
No, I haven't most people aren't too receptive to my looks.
Some people just can't recognize good looks when it's right in front of them.
I see, you're right, you definitely aren't normal looking.
Oh my, Sora who is this? A friend of yours? Maybe your boyfriend?
Dante looked over to the voice and a woman stepped out of a nearby weapon shop.
She was wearing Shinobi gear, a jonin from the looks of her flak jacket.
Mom, this is Dante I just met him yesterday, he's a classmate. He owes me 100 ryo.
As the woman got closer she introduced herself.
I'm Sara Nara, Sora's mom.
So you owe my daughter money, huh?.
She said as she looked Dante up and down.
She noticed he was dressed in clothes that didn't fit him properly and they were torn in many places.
Just barely hanging on together.
She then said, how about you join us for some shopping.
I would but I have other things to attend to Dante said.
Just as he was about to start walking away Sara said oh don't worry it's my treat.
As she grabbed Dante and pulled him into a nearby clothing shop.
Despite Dante trying his best to resist, she was a jonin. There was no way he would be able to escape.
Sora followed behind them.
While in the shop Sara started picking out cloths for Dante.
After a while had passed Sara went up to the counter and paid for the clothe she had chosen for him.
Alright kiddo, you can have these clothes.
Don't worry about it too much, just pay me back when you become a ninja.
Dante looked at her for a second and said alright, I will you can count on it.
Dante then made his way home, he couldn't continue looking for ways to make money while carrying the clothes Sara had bought for him.
As Dante walked away.
Sara asked Sora what's his story?
To which Sora replied I'm not sure I just know he's an orphan, and he didn't speak to anyone the entire time he's been at the academy.
That is until yesterday, he walked up to me and asked to borrow 100 ryo, and today I saw him talking to Haro.
He even went to train with Haro, Agui and Take today.
How strange...
What where you guys talking about before I showed up?
He was asking if I knew a way for him to make money.
Although, with his unique appearance it's difficult for him to do so.
Usually when kids need money they do requests in the village.
That's not really an option for him.
Money?
Yes, he said he needs it for food, enough until he graduates.
Until he graduates? Does he not know D-rank missions don't pay much?
Anyways, let's head back home.
I've got all the supplies I need for my mission tomorrow.
