Capítulo 48: Chapter 48 - Battles in the 2nd Dungeon 01
With the three enemies killed, Daichi resumed his journey into the jungle.
'Since there are ninjas made from the Nara clan and Kurama clan then it stands to reason that I'll encounter ninjas from other clans as well. This might be a good opportunity for me to learn how they fight first hand. Watching something from a story and experiencing it are two different things after all.'
He then looked at the new skill he acquired.
[Linked Kill Strikes - Active(LV.1): This skill activates once 10 fast consecutive strikes are landed on the enemy. After the 10th strike each attack deals additional damage to the enemy. This skill also increases the speed of the user.]
[Note: Delay in between each strike cannot be more than 1 second. ]
[Effects: +1% Increase to Agility.
+2% Increase in damage when using swords, daggers or other sharp weapons.
+(n+1)% Increase to damage dealt for each additional strike. 'n' represents the last consecutive attack landed on the enemy. ]
'Wow. This is one awesome sweet skill. It slightly increases my agility. But the last effect of this skill… (n+1)% increase in damage…So unless I'm not mistaken then once the skill activates, the first strike lands 2% additional damage and the second strike lands 3% and 3rd deals 4% damage and so on. So theoretically if I land about 20 strikes then this skill would deal an additional damage of 21%... '
'And this is only the first level. If I increase the level of this skill it would be even more powerful… Excellent.'
Daichi became happy with the results of his first fight. He set his sights on the trees ahead and slowly moved.
Daichi carefully walked through the woods. Hours slowly passed and it was starting to get dark. It was then that Daichi noticed two red dots moving slowly towards him on his map. Daichi slowed down and prepared himself. Suddenly Daichi heard the sound of trees getting crushed and looked ahead. Out of the darkness a black spiraling body came directly at him at high speeds.
Before the attacker could drill through him Daichi sidestepped and got out of the way. But he didn't escape unscathed. "Ahh…"
[-132 HP]
His shirt got torn and there were several bleeding lines on his chest. Luckily they were nothing serious. Before Daichi could take a look at his enemy he disappeared. He quickly looked at the map and saw that his attacker had slowed down and was now moving from behind him to a new location.
'He's trying to ambush me again.'
Daichi got ready. And just as he predicted the enemy attacked once more. The enemy ninja shot at Daichi intending to drill through him. Daichi successfully escaped without injuries this time and he noticed something. The enemy drilled through trees and rocks behind Daichi and disappeared into the darkness once more.
'This guy is moving in a straight line. His speed is impressive but he can't maneuver or change his direction. I think I have an idea who my next opponent is and what technique he's using.'
Daichi kept an eye on his Mini-Map. He noticed that the enemy ninja was getting ready for a third strike. Sweat trickled down Daichi's face as he got ready to make his move.
He suddenly heard the winds howling as he saw the enemy coming at him fast. Daichi stepped out of the line of attack while going through several hand-seals. Just as the enemy was about to reach where he stood a second ago Daichi launched his attack.
"Fire style - Great Fireball Jutsu."
The giant burning ball of flame hit his enemy and exploded, sending the attacker flying. Daichi used Body Flickr and moved some distance away. He got near his opponent who was on the ground burning and smoking.
'Observe'
[LV.36][Beast Nin]
HP:3641 CP:3408
[A ninja created based on a Genin of the Inuzuka clan who survived the Akagahara exam grounds. This ninja possesses exceptional senses and instincts but is weak against Genjutsu attacks. He is proficient in using his clan techniques and fights alongside his partner Shibori. He is faster than ordinary Genin. This enemy intends to kill you.]
'His partner..?' Daichi's eyes widened in realization but he was a second too late to dodge an attack from behind from the second enemy. A powerful force slammed into Daichi's back sending him flying.
[-108 HP]
"Ghaa…" Daichi flew in the air a few feet before roughly landing on the ground. He tumbled for a few meters before stopping himself. He got up and looked towards his enemy.
'So that's his dog partner Shibori.'
A black dog half the size of an adult human was standing in front of his Inuzuka partner growling at Daichi. It had scars over its body and sharp red claws. The Inuzuka Genin was getting up and both were now looking to battle.
'I took out 310 HP points with that point blank fireball but It's nowhere near enough. The Inuzuka clan ninjas prefer speed and combo attacks over everything else. And they have extraordinary senses. I need to separate these two and take them out individually.'
Forming the plan in mind Daichi made his move. He created a shadow clone and rushed towards the genin while his clone targeted the ninja dog. The genin also rushed towards Daichi and both of them started fighting.
Daichi dodged the swipe of a clawed hand to the face and retaliated with a strong punch to the chest. It reduced a few HP and sent the ninja a few feet back but did nothing else.
'He's strong.'
The dungeon ninja rushed to Daichi and they began their second round of fighting. Daichi evaded the sharp claws and swipes and blocked the elbow shots aimed at his chest and head. During the fight the ninja suddenly dropped a few smoke bombs and jumped out. Daichi, not wanting to fight the enemy blind jumped out of the smoke as well.
The moment he got out of the smoke a powerful kick struck his back sending him back into the purple smoke. Even before Daichi landed and could get his bearings he felt several blows and cuts all over his body. The attacks came from all directions and within seconds of each other.
Noticing his HP slowly dwindling, Daichi became agitated. He took his dagger from the inventory and tried to slice his opponent. But he failed in striking his enemy.
'This isn't working. Why can't I hit him?...' Daichi was extremely agitated. He was breathing hard as he endured the attacks. 'Calm down Daichi. You can do this. Think this through.'
Just then several notifications popped up indicating the enemy ninja dog was defeated. He suddenly received the memories of his dispelled clone and smiled. 'It seems the beast slayer title was activated for my shadow clone when it forced the dog away from here. I'll have to look into how far the beasts have to be separated another time. That info might come in handy.'
Daichi looked at the ninja and his anxiety lessened. 'I can do this.'
Daichi calmed down and used his chakra sense and superior hearing. He started hearing the low sounds of winds moving and a strong chakra coming at him from behind. The boy evaded the strike aimed at his neck and slashed at the nin.
[-504 HP]
[Enemy Negative Status - Wounded buff in effect.]
Daichi didn't waste time and took out his tanto. He stabbed the wounded ninja through the chest and started slashing at him with his dagger.
The enemy's health began rapidly falling. Daichi made sure to connect each attack so that his new skill Linked Kill Strikes activated. And before long he was victorious.
[Enemy killed.]
[+1400 Exp.]
[+210 Exp.]
[Enemies killed: 04/168]
[You have leveled up.]
Daichi looked at his stats. 'Level 29. Nice. My special stats went up by 1 but other than a 1 point in agility, none of my other primary stats has gone up. There is still time. I'll increase as much as I can in this dungeon and then once I'm done I'll add points and raise them to a 100 when I leave. That way I can save some points…I think.'
Without wasting time Daichi moved through the dungeon. It has now been several hours since he entered the dungeon. Daichi decided to get some rest and restore some of his stamina and health points. He looked at the map and noting that there weren't any enemies near him, he went to a nearby rock and sat down. The mental exhaustion was getting to him as the events of the day went through his mind. Daichi slowly closed his eyes.
After several minutes Daichi jerked awake to the sound of a notification ring.
[You have sensed killing intent.]
The moment Daichi opened his eyes he saw a blade coming straight for his head. Daichi tilted his head and avoided a fatal blow but the blade still managed to leave a cut on his cheek. The moment the blade lodged into the rock behind Daichi, he let his chakra flow into his arms. With the chakra enhancement technique increasing his strength and speed, Daichi quickly grabbed hold of the sword wielding arm and locked it in place while he sent a powerful punch at his attacker's face.
The ninja reeled back from the force of the blow but Daichi didn't let up. Instantly taking out his dagger from his inventory he sliced off the arm that had the sword.
[-669 HP]
[Enemy Negative Status - Crippled buff in effect.]
The ninja jumped back several feet and tried to get away but Daichi threw several shuriken forcing him to abandon his retreat plan.
'I made sure there weren't any enemies near me with the map. So how did this guy get so close to me??'
Daichi was angry that he let his guard down and almost got killed for it. He looked at his would-be killer and took in every detail. The ninja was covered in a black and green camouflage clothes from head to toe. Even the face was mostly covered in a black mask and all Daichi could see were the eyes staring back at him. He wanted to know how this nin evaded his map and got to him undetected.
'Observe'
[LV.35][Stealth Nin]
HP: 3300 CP: 3165
[A ninja created based on a Genin who survived the Akagahara exam grounds. This ninja is weak in Taijutsu but has exceptional stealth abilities and shurikenjutsu. He is able to mask his chakra and hide his presence, thus making him an ideal assassin. This ninja is capable of detecting traps and ambushing ninjas even stronger than him. This enemy prefers to move alone, making it easier to ambush his targets. He intends to kill you.]
'Mask his chakra and hide his presence?... So that means…'
Daichi quickly looked at his map from the corner of his eyes. The map didn't show any red dots near him. 'So there are ninjas who can hide from the Mini map huh. I should have known.'
Daichi quickly threw several shuriken at his target. The stealth nin deflected them with his own shurikens. He threw a kunai at Daichi with a paper bomb attached to it.
'He's trying to escape. Can't let that happen.' Daichi went through the hand seals and used Body Flicker. The stealth nin was already on a tree branch and was planning on escaping when Daichi appeared before him.
"Wind style - Wind bullet jutsu." Daichi expelled several fast wind bullets targeting the ninja's torso and legs. His goal was to take his opponent's balance. Several bullets struck the enemy nin and the tree branch he was standing on and it broke sending him falling to the ground.
The stealth nin flipped in mid air and landed on his feet. He took a kunai and stopped the dagger Daichi aimed at his head. Both of them trying to inflict a fatal injury to the other. Due to being weak in Taijutsu and only one arm, the stealth ninja was at a disadvantage. It wasn't long before the outcome of the fight was decided.
Daichi blocked a thrust from his enemy and used chakra strings to tie his limbs up. Successfully incapacitating his foe Daichi launched a barrage of strikes with his dagger and in a few seconds the stealth nin dispersed into smoke.
[Enemy killed.]
[+1050 Exp.]
[+157.5 Exp.]
[Enemies killed: 05/168]
Once Daichi came down from his battle high, he realized that he only survived through pure luck.
'If the system hadn't warned me I'd be dead right now. It seems I've become too reliant on the map. And it isn't perfect either… I suppose it's a good thing I found this out so early. I can't believe I didn't notice something like this in the other dungeon…. Then again dungeon 43 was full of mindless beasts. They didn't have the ability or knowhow to mask chakra…'
It was then that a certain memory rushed to the forefront of his mind. 'Wait a minute. There was one incident. When I went to the lake for the first time… I checked my map and didn't find any enemies but almost got ambushed by a crocodile. I didn't think about it much then…'
Daichi made the decision to not rely on the map and use his chakra sense and superior sense skills to find his enemies throughout the dungeon. 'This is perfect training for tracking my opponents through unknown terrains.'
