==================================================

In the Land of Fire, Konoha.

It was not a bad offer. However, if he went to the training camp, he would likely form bonds with the other members. If he felt pity and saved them, he would have no bodies to collect.

Kifu knew his own character. He was not the type of person who could watch someone die without stepping in to help.

'I just want to be a heartless Body Collector.'

Heartless. Body. Collector. Those were the only descriptors he needed. It was that simple.

In theory, the more people died in Konoha, the happier he should be.

"Consider it. I can teach you a lot of Ninja experience to reduce future risks." Yuhi Shinko sat on the chair next to him and handed him a cigarette.

Kifu glanced at him.

Did this man think he could buy him off with a single cigarette? 

Who did he think he was looking down on?

Besides, experience?

After using the Experience Cards for the Jonin Miura Ichigo and the Pseudo-Kage Akagi Tsukasa, his combat experience was not necessarily weaker than that of Yuhi Shinko.

"No." Kifu took a puff. He wore an expression that clearly said: 'I am depressed, leave me alone.'

He was a salted fish.

He only enjoyed the happiness of being a salted fish.

He shifted his weight to find a more comfortable position. He slumped into a "Ge You Lie" pose and asked curiously, "Why are you looking for me? Konoha has so many excellent Genin and Chunin. Kakashi is a good choice."

Yuhi Shinko felt his teeth itch with irritation at Kifu's indifferent attitude.

How could a civilian Ninja refuse such a good thing?

He took a deep breath to calm the urge to punch Kifu.

If this were his own child being so unambitious, he would have beaten him already!

"I feel that you and I have a certain fate."

"..."

Kifu rolled his eyes.

"I will tell you a secret. In exchange, please do not bother me anymore, Senpai. I only want to handle bodies in peace. Some things must be done, even if others are unwilling to do them."

"Tell me."

Yuhi Shinko felt a headache coming on. This kid was completely stubborn.

"Asuma is chasing your daughter," Kifu said directly.

Whoa!

Yuhi Shinko stood up abruptly. His eyes widened. He muttered to himself, "I knew it, I knew it..."

He did not say another word. He turned and disappeared instantly.

Kifu shrugged. He had already set Asuma up once before. Yuhi Shinko would have figured it out eventually anyway. He might as well finish the job.

He silently offered three minutes of mourning for Asuma in his heart.

Children in the Ninja world were truly precocious. They were so young, yet they were already obsessed with love. It was a typical case of blind puppy love.

Take Uchiha Obito, for example. He was not very old, but as soon as Nohara Rin died, he blackened completely.

This was not a good thing. Their minds were not mature yet. This kind of liking was entirely blind.

"I am doing this for your own good, Asuma."

Yes, for his own good!

The salted fish rolled over. He continued to enjoy the quiet and peaceful afternoon sun.

'I feel like I forgot something. I feel like there was a task I did not finish. What was it? Whatever. I will take a nap. I am so tired.'

Outside the Land of Hot Springs, Kakashi supported Ito Itsuki. They struggled to walk toward the Land of Fire...

...

Night fell.

The cool breeze after sunset blew across Kifu. He shivered and woke up.

Anyone who has tried it knows the feeling. After basking in the sun all afternoon, the evening wind feels particularly cold. It pierces the bones.

Kifu stood up unsteadily from the rocking chair and tightened his clothes.

His body was cold, but it could not hide the heat in his heart.

He rubbed his hands together.

It was time for the exciting prize draw.

The dead of night was the perfect time to communicate with corpses.

He walked back into the Mortuary and released the bodies of Kaguya Senjin and Kuriarare Yamato.

'It is impossible to make back my full investment, but I hope to recover some of the losses. Otherwise, the loss is too great. I will not dare to go out next time.'

Without trump cards, he did not feel at ease.

Before the Body Touching, he followed his usual routine. He processed the bodies first.

It did not matter if they were enemies or if they had caused him losses while they were alive. Since they were dead, all accounts were settled.

The deceased were the priority. Kifu carefully gave the bodies a "beauty treatment."

Of course, the body of Kaguya Senjin was in a terrible state. He could only do his best.

Once he finished, and before midnight arrived, Kifu could finally perform the Body Touching.

[Yellow Corpse. Success Rate: 30%. Would you like to use Body Touching? (Current 3/3, Daily 9/9)]

He had not used the skill all day, so the attempts had refreshed. It was perfect.

[Yes!]
