Capítulo 6: Chapter 6: Upgrades
Raiden charged towards his opponent while dual-wielding his butcher knives, then he swung his blades, aiming to decapitate them. Unfortunately, the blades only barely managed to nick them. However, not even a drop of blood was visible on their necks... But that didn't matter.
I grinned as I looked at the rest of the swordsmen who seemed to think this situation was laughable as I couldn't even truly harm them.
Internally though I was smiling from ear to ear. Why you may ask? It's because of one of the edits I made to the butcher knives.
[Butcher Knives: A set of civilian butcher knives that have been modified to increase tearing strength.
Edit: Secretes a venom that only requires to be pressed into the skin to take action as it burrows through space between cells. The more force pressed, the more likely it is to work. Slow action, Necrotises the victim from the inside out. The effect can be transferred between the user and a weapon]
This damn thing cost me nearly 350CP. without the transferable skill, it only cost 190CP however I would not be using these blades permanently so I didn't want to leave any disposable points.
I turned off the eight gates technique before our trio regathered and stared at the swordsmen again. They still had that same lax smile on their face, even the two who fought me had a look of mockery on their faces. Choza sensei was still fighting. However, Juzo had a look of elation on his face as he slashed more and more, cutting deep into our sensei's skin. This wasn't a battle...This was mutilation.
Not long later, Choza sensei looked at us with a helpless smile before he collapsed onto the floor. Juzo slowly stepped towards him as he reached into his pocket.
Swiftly, a green flash kicked into the face of Juzo who was still searching Sensei's pockets.
Pow! His entire body flew into the side of a tree and engraved itself into it.
I glanced at this unemotionally but Guy and Genma had a surprised look on their faces. Suddenly, the figure turned to us with a smile in his eyes in a thumbs up, It was exactly who I thought. Might Dai.
Unfortunately, I couldn't save this man today as I'm too weak. I apologise Guy but I'm not putting myself at that risk, I just want to obtain some benefits. I truly do respect this man though and will make sure that he attains a more fitting title than just 'the eternal genin'.
"Guy, take your team away from here right now. Don't worry, I've got this" He grinned towards our team. The other seven swordsmen tensed up as they noticed Dai's entrance, I noticed a small black mark on both the users of Kira and Samehada's neck which meant the Venom was acting.
Guy started to tear up before I grabbed him and slung him over my shoulder. I nodded to Genma and he grabbed Choza before we both escaped from this battlefield. Before that though, I left a couple of clones there as well as a small unnoticeable nail with an inscription on it in the wood of a tree near the battlefield.
Rapidly escaping, we made our way towards Kirigakure via a longer route.
We managed to get to Kirigakure before long and completed the mission successfully after delivering Choza to the Hospital.
...
Later that night, after comforting Guy about his father's death, I noticed one of my clones had dispelled. I immediately locked myself in the toilet and after checking for any spies, I placed a small, unnoticeable nail in the wall.
*Poof*
I disappeared.
Looking around my new environment, I glanced coldly at the 6 bodies in front of me. They were all bleeding out with wretched expressions on their face. Might Dai had already died and his body was shrivelled up like a corpse, sigh, I should at least give him a proper burial after this.
Walking up to the 5 remaining Swordsmen, I clicked my tongue. I had hoped that guy would be able to finish all of them off as I helped poison 2 of them and Choza also assisted. Oh well, things don't always go to plan.
I stepped slowly towards them and one of them noticed me, he laughed to himself before nodding to me,
"Huh, smart move kid" He whispered as he pointed gently towards his yet necrotising flesh. I smiled back pitifully before casting 5 clone jutsu and asking them to finish off the rest. Sounds of blades piercing into flesh reverberated around the forest as the ground was dyed red.

I then sat down a distance away from the corpses as my stomach churned yet I managed to hold back any vomit that felt like it was rising. Before long, I checked my Status.

I grinned at the conclusion before wondering what I should spend the points on. I only managed to set this whole thing up after saving 1,000 points up. That covered the teleporting nail costs, even though they were only one use so once I teleport back to Kiri, they will be useless.
Hmm, Before any more thoughts, I grabbed all the swords around and placed them in the inventory. Placing my hands on my butcher knives, I sighed as this would be it. I transferred the necrosis ability back to myself and then to Kiba. I placed them at my waist and threw the knives into the pile of swordsmen.
Not far away from that, in a quaint place in the forest, I dug a grave for might dai and erected a wooden tombstone for him there. Everyone dies in the end, it is a constant of existence. Well, Everyone but me. I will become the constant.
...
I was now at peace with what I had done, anyone willing to kill must understand that they can be killed also. Thinking long-term, I decided to use my remaining points, the only way I know how to...by getting more points.
Since the system only absorbs chakra directly from organisms which is a form of energy, there are still other energies left. Especially dark, negative emotions which are the fuels for many wars. Hence, I thought that I should probably use that to my advantage. Soon enough after a while, one small diamond-shaped, tattoo symbol formed on both of my palms.
[Rip-Off Tattoo: This allows the user to convert dead organic matter to chakra. Also allows any dark, negative intent from living or deceased organisms to be purified into chakra. Effectively Ripping the Organism of everything that it is/was.]
This goddamn seal cost me over 2,000 CP.
Now it was time to see if this seal was worth it. I hovered my hand over the swordsmen's bodies and a thin, dark light scanned over them as it seemed to peel off anything remaining and funnelled it into the seal. Before long, only clothing was left in front of me.
[Gained 1,400 CP]
Damn, This was worth all those points. It squeezed out all of the last remaining bits of energy from them.
Since I now had roughly 2K points left as well, I wondered what I should use it on... I clicked on the Bloodline section of my stats and a long list of Kekkei Genkai as well as Dojutsu appeared in front of me. I scrolled through a few of them before settling on one due to its versatility...

Grinning I could sense the energy that was slowly seeping into my body. Everything seemed much clearer to me. I even tried using my seventh fang and my range had increased to 1.5km and yet I could sense things distinctly at all points within that area. My body also felt more robust as I could feel all unconscious activities within my body, I could even hear the beat of my heart if I wanted to.
Smiling, I disappeared from the area remembering a final phrase from my last life,
"Upgrades people, Upgrades"
