Chapter 9
Kakashi finally returned home. How long was he on his last mission? Three months! Three fking months to establish relations with these damn shinobi of fog, when it was already clear to everyone that this was a waste of time! What kind of relationship can be with a "dying" country?
Fking elders! How much time has he already spent on various missions outside the village? He's been there since the Fox's attack. Everyone get everything, but how infuriating it is. Okay, a short rest, and I should visit the teacher's son, otherwise the last time I managed to find time was only two years ago! Two whole years! If I ever get the chance, I'll rip these old farts' heads off myself!
From thoughts of a warm bed and normal sleep on something soft, not in a damp room or even somewhere on the road, he was distracted by a knock on the door. Opening the door, from which the proud representative of the Hatake clan did not even have time to move away, he saw a colleague standing in front of him - an Anbu in a badger mask.
- You have a new task. Five minutes to get ready. – Handing the scroll into Kakashi's hands for review, the shinobi said briefly and left with shunshin.
Dreams've gone down the toilet. Kakashi's eye began to twitch. He wanted to fret, fume and sob! Especially the last one!
That's it, if there ever is a calm period in my life, I will hassle everyone's brains with the stupid actions! I will be a slow, lazy and late shinobi everywhere! I'm tired of it, I've already accumulated more vacation pay than I get from A-rank missions!
The proud student of the Fourth and the bearer of the Sharingan could not stand it, and fell face down against the wall. Anyone who could see him now would be surprised to notice how the shinobi's shoulders were trembling. He hadn't spent so much nerve in a long time. How can he visit the teacher's son? He didn't spend even three minutes in his own house, just returning from a mission and reporting to the Hokage!
At the same time, in the hospital
- U-chha! Probably the beautiful girl remembers me. – I shrugged at the sneezing attack.
Now let's get back to system messages!
Each blow from that bastard, and his accomplice, who can now sing in a church choir, raised the masochist's skill level by at least five per blow. Although, I admit, they thrashed from the heart. And even that collision of fists was counted as damage, which also brought me three skill levels. And as you can get, I raised the level very successfully, not Sasuke, but not bad - almost fourteen. Considering that from the academy graduates somewhere around the twentieth level, a little lower for those without clans, and a little higher for dudes with clans, so purely in terms of level, I could jump to the last year.
Well, the stats are now like this:
Name: Naruto Uzumaki

A special highlight was that I was only six HP away from death in that park. According to the logs, my rescue was pure luck. But looking at the difference in skill levels this event gave me, I somehow felt sick! Okay, Rescuer, the task itself announced this. But that comes later. The worst thing is that my two most outstanding skills now... they made me cry! And if singing is my fault, I shouldn't have sung so often in the shower, but raising the levels of a masochist certainly doesn't make me a decent person! If anyone ever sees this shame, I will simply kill myself! I urgently need to improve my stealth and fists! And it doesn't matter that both skills barely rise outside of such force majeure. I don't even care about Disciple of Light! With my behavior and Talk no Jutsu, it was difficult to expect anything else. And one step closer to a paladin...
Chakra growth and slightly increased control... by one, and then still at a very negative value. The explanation was simple: my body instinctively imbued itself with chakra, which caused its growth in the body, but the skill was not given. Because I don't know how to control it and can't repeat!
Task: "Aspiring Rescuer, Part X" completed!
Reputation with the Uchiha clan +5000

You made an indelible impression on the clans with your actions. And even on clanless shinobi +700 reputation with all factions of Konohagakure.
In connection with your heroic actions and completion of a chain of ten tasks, the system gives you the opportunity to choose a reward from those presented (the reward remains with you even after the restart):
1) Main hero – x2 increase in stamina, chance of getting into trouble and starting to overcome 50%. The chance of seducing the rescued is 80% (f) and 20% (m).
2) Early awakening of the chakra - start exercising with the chakra earlier than your peers. +200 to chakra control. Chance in the future to receive the title Ninjutsu Genius +5%. Chance to interest Root +67%. Chance to displease elders +89%. Complication of combat mode.
3) Beginner Li Shu Wen – chance to live to seventy +2%. Gaining the knowledge of the great Li Shu Wen will allow you to use chakra like Chi! Reputation with the Green Beasts of Konoha +2500. Provides knowledge on mastering Chinese Martial Arts (other martial arts are blocked forever). Gives two active skills. Chance to trample on the glory of the One-Striker +1%. Increases genjutsu resistance by 5%. Makes learning genjutsu 65% more difficult.
There's nothing to even think about. In the first paragraph, the line with the possibility of seducing certain "M" alarms me. So I pass. In the second, which is quite pleasant, the last three sentences are downright scary. But in the third... I don't care about the inaccessibility of other fighting styles and the impossibility, even in theory, of learning genjutsu at a good level, I was captivated by the first offer! Two percent chance of living longer! Moreover, not just longer, but to live to old age! Damn, I don't know who you are – Li Shu Wen, but now you are my idol!
So I chose right away. And then looked out the reputation window. Just wondering what my relationship with everyone looks like. I was especially interested in the attitude of these Green Men towards me. Maybe I can ask for a couple of lessons? I have good endurance and strength for my age! This, of course, is not almost two hundred of Sasuke's strength and one and a half hundred of his agility, but his endurance is lower. Fking deus ex machine! I wanna someone's reincarnation too! And if the little Uchiha is not considered a genius, then what about his brother? B-rr, such thoughts even make me feel sick.
When I saw the reputation, I went into a stupor for a time. No, partly everything was familiar, but only partly. The way relationships with girls were depicted there are strange. Five empty hearts. Well, not everyone. Ino has one full pink, and the second is 3%. Wth. Well, here the "memory" appears if you click on the name of the female character. Let's see at Ino's.
A layout with empty slots opened in front of me. The first of which was filled and my stupid face was visible from the side. And Ino kissing me on the cheek. So, this is a shot from her rescue, I remember this well. And below it says "event completed." Well, it's just great, I feel like a hero of a Japanese visual novel.
But for the twins, "The event is not completed." Is this not all? Although, I don't think that the remaining six percent contain anything creepy. But it's strange that what I've already done wasn't even enough for just one heart!
On the other hand, the first event in most short stories, as far as I remember from my past life as a translator of such "things", is almost always standard. So I have to wait for a kiss on the cheek? And where is it then? Oh, they visited me with Ino. The question's removed.
But in Ino's tab, I can even launch this event in the player. Free video, funny. But the way the system has changed...It clearly hints at something!!!
They also told me that intelligence now does not affect the chakra and is simply intelligence. And the chakra itself in the awakened state is calculated from endurance and fortitude. But for some reason the second parameter is blocked for me.
But not all of this shocked and frightened me, but one of the lines in the reputation section.
Inuzuka Tsume – 6%.
How!? When!? In general, I saw her only twice, when Kiba invited me to visit, and then our communication did not go beyond "hello"!
And how should I communicate with her now?
