章節 195: Chapter 195 - First B Rank Mission

Guy stood with his arms crossed and had his eyes on Daichi. He had an unusually serious expression as he looked at the boy. 'The fact that he asked the Hokage about collateral damages… He knew this was most likely the best option out of all the ones… The life of few for the safety of many. But will he make such a choice when it comes to other people?'

Guy's eyes then slowly drifted to his most precious student, Lee. As he looked at the boy and thought about all the things Lee said about his friend, the concerns Guy had vanished and his face softened. 'No. Daichi knows the difference. He's a good kid. His friendship with Lee is proof of that.'

Putting on a big smile, Guy stepped forward and spoke. "Daichi! Do you have a plan on solving this situation?"

At that the young gamer nodded his head. "Yes. There are a few ways we can go about this. We can drain the pond, capture all the native fishes and safely store them. Then kill all the Lampreys and look for any eggs that they might have laid and kill them too. Then refill the pond and bring the fishes back inside."

"But that will take time and lots of resources…" Tenten said as she thought about the logistics of such a plan.

Daichi nodded his head agreeing with her. "Yes. It is an option but not the best plan. The fastest way to solve this is to heat the lake to a certain temperature that kills the eggs and larvae of the lamprey and not harm the other fishes."

Guy nodded his head and stepped forward. "He's right. Sometimes a problem can be solved through careful planning, clever consideration, through patience or with brute force. But for delicate matters like this, one needs to apply brute force alongside a clever plan to make it a success."

"I have an idea and I need Neji's assistance." Daichi said as he looked at the Jonin and then to the Hyuga in the group.

Guy beamed and gave a thumbs up. "Alright. Let's hear your plan. Neji, are you ready?"

The Hyuga merely nodded his head and paid attention to the new teammate. Lee and Tenten also paid attention and wanted to know how they could help out.

Daichi began laying out his plan. "Neji, I need you to use your Byakugan and tell me the location of the fishes native to these waters. I'll create clones and capture them with my chakra strings and keep them at a safe distance. I know we won't be able to get everything but we can significantly reduce the damage to their population if we're careful and thorough."

Daichi then turned his attention to Lee and Tenten. "Once I heat up the lake you two will need to take the fishing net and scoop up the remains from the pond so that the corpses don't contaminate the water. Two people per net."

Lee looked a bit unsure at that moment since he didn't know water walking and Daichi immediately understood the problem. "Lee, you can hold the net from the shore and cover the perimeter of the pond. Tenten can cover the parts nearer the center."

"Not a bad plan Daichi." Guy said with a smile.

Daichi nodded and created over two dozen shadow clones.

Neji, Tenten were shocked to see the solid clones. Guy grinned as he looked at the number of clones that appeared. '27 shadow clones and he doesn't even look winded. His chakra is far bigger than those his age.'

Neji made the hand seal and activated his Kekkei Genkai. The moment he did, he was shocked to see how much chakra Daichi had. 'He has this much chakra? His reserves are even greater than Lord Hiashi.'

The shadow clones spread out all over the lake and stood in attention. Each one of them had chakra strings coming from their hands. With his heightened senses Daichi sensed most of the creatures swimming under the lake. The Chakra strings immediately moved and started to attach to their targets.

'I've only seen the puppet brigade from the Sand village that had such flawless mastery of Chakra Strings. But I doubt even they could change the nature of their strings so easily. His skills are truly vast.' Guy thought as he looked at how Daichi used his energy threads.

"Neji, call out if you see the fishes I miss or the ones deep in the lake."

"Byakugan!" The Hyuga nodded and activated his special eyes. "Approximately 380ft below you. Four of them."

Daichi quickly expanded his senses and captured the fishes.

"The one you caught just now is a Lamprey." Neji addressed a clone. The shadow clone nodded and heated the string that had caught the parasite fish.

His clones were also doing their best and with Neji guiding them the work was done quickly.

Over half an hour and almost all the sea creatures in the lake were entangled in Daichi's strings. The shadow clones moved towards the edge of the lake with their targets while the real Daichi moved to the center. He focused on his chakra and blurred through a series of seals.

Inhaling a deep breath of air and changing its properties, Daichi exhaled a stream of fire into the water. Steam erupted almost immediately as the flames touched the lake's surface. Daichi kept up the stream of fire and soon the lake started heating up. His delicate senses allowed him to assess the temperature of the lake while his clones kept the native fishes as cool as possible by changing the properties and nature of their chakra strings.

Soon the entire pond started producing small bubbles and steam. At that moment Daichi stopped using the jutsu and took a deep breath of air.

"The Lamprey larvae should be dead and the adults should be dying right now. We need to scoop up the remains before they contaminate the water." Daichi said as he looked at the team.

"Yosh. Well done Daichi. You did your part. Now it's our turn. Let's show him our burning passion!" Guy shouted with a grin and they got to work.

It wasn't an easy task. The team spent almost all day hauling out fish, checking for parasites and then tossing the fish back. They also had to scoop up the remains of the dead fish as well. It was tedious, physically exhausting work. Thankfully Guy's team and Daichi were used to such tasks.

As Daichi suspected, some native fishes did not survive and were killed by the heat.

"What's the damage, Neji?" Guy asked.

The Hyuga Genin used his eyes to check the Lake and soon came to a conclusion. "Based on my estimates more than 85% of the native fishes survived with no visible wounds. And all the Lampreys seem to have been killed."

Might Guy beamed hearing that. "Excellent work. Well done, all of you."

"You know we should take the dead fish to the market and give them to the hungry. That way there won't be any waste. What do you think?." Tenten said, looking at her sensei.

"That's a wonderful idea Tenten." Lee praised his teammate with a big smile.

"Yes! A most excellent idea dear Tenten. As soon as we're done here we'll head to the market. Others should benefit from this work and the fish is already cooked." The Jonin agreed and made his decision.

The team kept up their work for hours and by evening, their work was completed.

"Oh god. I need a shower." Tenten spoke as she cleaned her hands.

Lee smelled himself and was taken back. "Urgh. You have a point. A bath does sound nice."

All of them were covered in dirt, grim and smelled horrible.

At that moment an Anbu appeared near the team, starling the three Genins. Only Daichi and Guy sensed the presence of the new ninja before he appeared.

The Anbu looked directly at Daichi and spoke. "Daichi Hekima. Please clean yourself up quickly and head to the Hokage's office. There is an emergency."

Everyone was surprised and shocked. Guy narrowed his eyes and looked at the Anbu. "Did something happen?"

"There has been an incident at the Capital. The Hokage has asked for Daichi's presence. That is all I can say." The stoic ninja replied.

The Jonin nodded his head. "I understand." He turned to the temporary addition to the team. "Daichi. You're dismissed. Get cleaned up quickly and get to the tower. You shouldn't keep Lord Hokage waiting."

Daichi nodded and turned towards the messenger. "Please inform Lord Hokage that I'll be there shortly."

The Anbu nodded and vanished from his spot. Daichi turned to the other and waved them goodbye. Next second he vanished with the body flicker jutsu.

The Gamer ninja quickly reached his home and soon got himself in a presentable state. After taking a shower and putting on some new gear Daichi made his way to the Hokage tower.

'I wonder what this is about? An emergency at the capital? Could it be about Jin. Or maybe something to do with the Phantom thief…?'

He didn't know what happened but he would face whatever it was without flinching.

Hokage Tower: A short while ago.

The Hokage was going through important mission documents when his secretary came into the room.

"Lord Hokage. Yondu is here from the Capital. He has requested a meeting. Said it was an emergency." The assistant said, conveying the urgency of the situation.

Hiruzen was startled hearing that. 'Yondu? He's the messenger of the Royal court. If he's here then something serious must have happened.'

"Send him in."

The secretary nodded and a few moments later a middle aged man with green eyes and light shaded red hair entered the room. He bowed before the Hokage and then straightened.

"Greetings Lord Hokage." His voice was smooth and pleasant to the ears.

Hiruzen nodded. "Welcome to the Leaf village Yondu. Please sit. What brings you here?"

Yondu took a chair and spoke. "I will get straight to the point since time is a precious factor. The nephew of the 3rd Minister was poisoned less than 12 hours ago."

The Hokage's eyes widened. 'Even though it was the nephew of the 3rd minister, Ryuga will definitely consider this an attack on the Royal court and thus a personal attack on him. But that still doesn't explain why Yondu is here. There are capable medics in the capital. So why would he come here… Unless…'

Hiruzen could make a guess as to why the man was here but didn't say anything in case he was wrong.

Yondu continued. "The boy is dying. The best medics at the capital couldn't find out what's wrong with him or what poison was used. But they were able to make an estimate based on the speed of the poison's progression. Based on his bodily functions, they estimate he has about 7 or 8 hours from now to live. We've searched for Lady Tsunade. She visited the capital a few weeks ago but soon left. We can't locate her at the moment and won't be able to until it's too late."

Hiruzen's suspicion was proven correct. "So you're here for her student, Daichi Hekima I presume?"

"Yes." The messenger from the Royal court nodded his head. "Lord Taji Mayima has requested the boy's aid and has given the mission. This will be marked as a B Rank due to its high priority. Is the boy here in the village?"

Yondu knew that if Daichi was away outside the village, the chances of the Minister's nephew dying would increase to 100%. And the situation would become much worse.

"Daichi is here. He is currently on a D Rank mission. I will summon him immediately." Hiruzen replied and made a gesture with his hand. An Anbu quickly appeared kneeling.

"Find Daichi and tell him to report to me at once." Nothing else was said and the Anbu nodded and vanished in silence.

Hiruzen then turned his attention back to Yondu. "Tell me about the situation. How did this happen?"

章節 196: Chapter 196 - Save the Nephew of the Minister.

"I see. So that's how it is… If he dies, then…" Hiruzen massaged the bridge of his nose as his mind went through the situation.

"Yes. Not only will the minister be furious but Lord Ryuga will also be very unhappy. Until the culprit is found, there will be some chaos." Yondu knew the temperament of the Fire Lord better than most. If the matter is not resolved soon harsh actions will be taken that could cause problems for everyone.

'The first thing to do is save Leorio's life. And the only people who could do that are Tsunade and Daichi. And since Tsunade is nowhere to be found I have no choice but to send Daichi. But with all the threats eyeing him, I can't send him alone… I can't recall Kakashi. He is in the middle of his delicate training. I'll have to assign someone else…'

Hiruzen knew that sending Daichi alone was not an option no matter how strong the boy was. At that moment an idea suddenly sparked in his head. 'Hmm, that will work. If they can work together then a couple of my problems will be solved.'

At that moment the Kage sensed the presence of the Genin outside his office.

—-

Daichi reached the Hokage's office and was quickly let in.

"Lord Hokage." He greeted the leader of the village and then glanced at the other person present in the room.

"Daichi. This is Yondu. He is a member of the Fire Daimyo's Royal court." Hiruzen introduced the man to the Genin.

Daichi immediately used 'Observe' skill on the man and made an analysis of the person. 'Level 68. 47 years old. His agility and stamina are high for his level but other than that all his stats seem normal… A messenger and close personal friend of the Daimyo. Unmarried. Smart and capable of fighting even Jonin level ninjas.'

It only took a few seconds for Daichi to have a rough understanding and measure of Yondu's background, strength and abilities.

"It is an honor to meet you sir." He gave a short bow and greeted the elder man.

"There is a matter of grave importance that requires your attention at the Capital." Hiruzen spoke, drawing Daichi's attention. "This will be a B Rank mission and you are to leave for the Capital immediately."

'A B Rank? This is indeed serious.' The boy nodded and stood in attention. "Will Kakashi sensei be coming?"

The Hokage shook his head indicating the absence of the Sharingan ninja. "Kakashi will be unavailable but Genma here will join you."

At that moment the Hokage's Elite Guard and Special Jonin Genma Shiranui appeared. "Hey."

Daichi immediately used the Observe skill again on the new target.

The young gamer quickly read the information his system showed. 'Hmm… Genma Shiranui. There wasn't much about him in canon other than the small bits shown… I guess I'll know more about him during this mission.'

"You will be working under Genma for the duration of this mission." Hiruzen relayed his message.

At that moment the second Chain Quest appeared in front of the boy.

[Chain Quest Initiated.]

.

[Accept Y/N]

'Another chain Quest? Looks like this will be a tricky mission…'

Having absolute faith in his medical skills, Daichi mentally accepted the quest.

[You have accepted the 1st quest.]

The Hokage spoke at that moment. "Since this is a time sensitive issue, Yondu will explain the details of the mission to you on the way."

Daichi nodded and soon Genma, Yondu and Daichi were on their way to the Capital.

—-

It was evening around 6pm. Three people swiftly moved through the forest in the Fire country and were making their way to the Capital.

"Daichi, you've spent some time in the capital. What do you know about the 3rd Minister?" Yondu asked the boy as he jumped to another tree.

'Hmm…' Daichi recalled the information he read and quickly replied. "The 3rd Minister is Lord Taji Mayima. He is in charge of public relations and overseeing the various businesses in the Capital and surrounding towns."

"Yes. There are three ministers overseeing various aspects of the government in Fire country and Lord Taji Mayima is a very important person. So this must be solved quickly. And moreover an attack against his family is considered an attack against the Daimyo itself."

The Genin nodded his head as heard that. "I understand the seriousness of the situation. Can you tell me more about the minister? You said his nephew lives with him? What about his parents?"

Yondu was silent for a few moments and just when Daichi thought he wouldn't answer Yondu spoke. "Lord Taji and his wife Fuyi had a son. And Lord Taji had a twin brother named Genji. Genji also had a son named Leorio Mayima. Both Leorio and Lord Taji's son were around the same age. Many years ago he lost his son, his brother and sister in law in an unfortunate accident. Lord Taji and Fuyi lost their son and Leorio, his parents."

"The third Minister adopted and raised the boy, didn't he?" Genma said as it was easy to draw that conclusion from the events.

Yondu nodded his head. "Yes. It took a long time but they were able to heal and move past the tragedy. But now… If Lord Taji loses Leorio as well…"

"I will do everything in power to not let that happen."

Yondu looked at the Genin's serious expression and nodded. 'If there is anyone who can save him and avert a crisis, it's you.'

"Please tell me everything that's happened to Leorio." Daichi wanted to know as much information as he could to prepare and have an idea as to what he was walking into.

Yondu recalled the memories and began. "Everything was fine yesterday when Leorio went to bed. He was healthy without any problems. But early this morning the guard outside his room started hearing loud coughs and painful shouts. He burst into the room and saw Leorio sweating heavily, breathing hard and clutching his chest in pain. The family medics did a thorough examination and couldn't find what's wrong with him and he was soon brought to the hospital."

"I see… I'm guessing Dr. Karuizawa examined his condition."

"Indeed. He along with several competent other medics ran all sorts of tests… But none of them could find the cause of his illness let alone a cure. What they did find is that he was poisoned and how much time he has left before death. The medics said that based on the speed of his organs deteriorating functions he has… only a few hours from now…"

"Have you caught the person who poisoned him?"

The messenger from the Capital shook his head to Genma's question. "An investigation is underway but nothing at the moment. At least, I haven't heard anything before I left. And the guards stationed at Lord Taji's mansion didn't sense any intruders."

It became quiet and Daichi took another look at the new quest. 'It says stabilize his condition and prolong his life. Not cure or save him… That's strange… Does that mean saving his life is impossible or will it come in another quest? Hmm… I'll only be able to know more after I examine the guy…. This brings another question that's been on my mind for some time… Does the system know the future and my future actions? Is My Gamer system sentient?'

Daichi recalled the system message that appeared when he first woke up in this world.

[Memories of the previous life of your soul which were locked have now been unlocked. Memories of your current life and your unlocked ones are being merged…. Merging complete. Good luck, Player.

System Administrator ]

'System Administrator… Till a few years ago I thought it was from some deity who sent my soul here. But now… Is there someone who is controlling the system?'

An uncomfortable and somewhat frightening thought came to Daichi's mind. 'Am I someone's puppet?'

Daichi took a few deep breaths of air and calmed his heart. 'I will have to look into this. But for now… Just need to focus on becoming stronger.'

"Are you alright Daichi? You look a little pale."

The Jonin Genma's voice brought Daichi out of his thoughts.

"I'm fine. Just thinking about the many possibilities of our actions…" Genma raised an eyebrow hearing the vague reply.

At that moment Daichi received a new system message.

[Quest 'Wipe out the Invasive Species' Completed.]

[Rewards]

8000 Exp.

1200 Exp.

[Reputation increases with Team Guy and The Hokage.]

[Reputation increases with people of the Leaf Village.]

'So Guy must have submitted the mission report. Good. Only 6168 exp to the next level.'

In a better mood than before, Daichi made his way to his destination.

The three people were moving much faster than even ordinary ninjas. Yondu expected the fast pace from the Jonin accompanying him but Daichi keeping up without showing any strain was a surprise to the man.

'So his stamina and speed are also above normal. A very talented child indeed.' Yondu thought as they were getting closer to the Fire Capital city.

—-

The three people soon made it to the hospital and Dr. Karuizawa greeted them. He was about to bring them to where Leorio was situated but at that moment several people came forward. Two in particular had their focus on Daichi.

The young Genin immediately used 'Observe' and found out who they were. 'The 3rd Minister and his wife. And the rest are his personal guards.'

Lord Taji Mayima, the 3rd Minister of the Fire Capital looked at the messenger of the Royal court. "Thank you for bringing him so quickly Yondu."

"Of course Lord Taji." The man bowed and replied. He then turned to Daichi and Genma and introduced them. "This is Lord Taji Mayima the 3rd Minister of his Capital and his wife Fuyi Mayima."

Taji had a somber expression while his wife silently looked at the Genin.

"I have heard a lot about you, Daichi Hekima. Your medical skills are almost equal to those of Lady Tsunade. You're our last chance. Can I put my faith in you?" The minister looked at the boy with hope in his eyes.

Daichi was silent for a few seconds and then replied in a careful tone. "I will do my best. But forgive me Lord Taji, I cannot say anything more until I see my patient."

The minister nodded in understanding and stepped aside. Karuizawa led them deeper into the hospital building. Daichi and Genma passed by many Guards who were wearing Imperial armor.

'Just as I expected. Since they don't know if the poison is contagious or not, they're keeping him in an isolation chamber.' Daichi thought as he looked around.

Dr. Karuizawa gave Daichi a detailed file and spoke. "This is everything we have found about his condition." Daichi quickly went through the pages and committed all the information to memory.

He reached the room where the nephew was being kept. "I'll take it from here. I'll go in alone and examine him." Having said his piece the Genin medic ninja quickly put on the Hazmat suit and entered the room.

He saw a man in his twenties unconscious on the medical bed, breathing through a tube with several wires connected to him that were monitoring his vitals.

'Alright, let's see what I got.'

—-------------

Author's Note;

Just want to say one thing. Daichi isn't anyone's puppet. The answers to the system will only appear near the end of the story.
