Chapter 9: Another Lottery
The two-month medical ninja training passed in a flash as Kaito studied day and night.
If Kaito hadn't reminded everyone to pack their bags after the training yesterday, he wouldn't have even realized that two months had passed.
"Kaito, what are you going to do after the training is over?"
A Genin who was only a few years older than Kaito greeted him and asked.
"You ninjas must have returned to your original teams. Kaito should be returning to the hospital with us to await the village's arrangements, right?"
The young man next to him, who was wearing a white short-sleeved shirt and looked neither like a doctor nor a ninja, gave the answer on behalf of Kaito.
"What do you mean by us ninjas? Now you are a ninja too. Don't embarrass us Blood Mist Ninjas."
Seeing that the two were about to quarrel, Kaito immediately spoke up to interrupt the quarrel.
"I plan to go home first. After all, I haven't been back for two months. After that, I have to go to the village to register as a ninja. The next step depends on the village's arrangements."
Before coming, Kaito had not expected that this training camp would be a closed training camp.
On the first day of the training, everyone was taken to a small island near the Kirigakure Village. There was no one else except the trainees and a few persons in charge.
This time, it was actually more about mutual learning between the doctors and ninjas who came for training.
Finally, several senior doctors and senior ninjas will complete the teaching of the designated courses.
At first, everyone looked down on Kaito because of his identity as a ninja student.
However, after a few days of study, everyone discovered that this 9-year-old boy had made certain achievements in both ninja and medical care.
Later on, what surprised everyone even more was that the medical ninjutsu 'Water Style: Aqua Ring' that they learned in class was actually developed by this young boy who hadn't even graduated from the ninja school yet.
Of course, there is no rule in the Kirigakure Village that requires ninjas to hand over the ninjutsu they have developed to the village, otherwise those clans with secret techniques would simply rebel.
However, considering that the Aqua Ring was not a very advanced ninjutsu, Kaito decided to hand it over to the village after discussing it with Nakamura Keiko. It would be a basic ninjutsu for every medical ninja to learn, as a stepping stone for himself.
After that, Kaito's popularity on the entire island suddenly improved.
Whether it is ninjas or doctors, those who can come to participate in the medical ninja training are more or less different from the cold atmosphere of the Kirigakure Village.
There was no competition in this training, but rather they learned from each other, so after two months everyone had a pretty good relationship.
"I don't want to chat with you anymore. I'm leaving first!"
As soon as the boat carrying the students back to the port docked, Kaito hurriedly picked up Blue and ran home.
"This kid, is it necessary to be so anxious to go home?"
Kaito was of course anxious, because he still had 4120 gold coins on him and was waiting to go home and do two ten-draw combos.
Because of the closed training camp on the island, Kaito only tried to draw once when he had accumulated ten consecutive draws not long after arriving on the island.
Considering that although there are a lot of good things in the General Attribute Pool, there are also a lot of disappointing items and skills.
If he drew something like [Tail Whip] or [Double Slap] that had no clear meaning, he would probably vomit three liters of blood.
At this stage when his strength is relatively weak, the improvement of the Water Attribute Pool is more stable, so Kaito decisively went for the Water Attribute Pool.
After drawing the lottery, Kaito realized that it would be difficult to explain if he didn't go anywhere but suddenly had a bunch of messy things on his body.
In the end, he only received one purple item [Rare Candy] and ate it. He didn't rush to claim the other prizes he drew. After all, once the prizes were materialized, they could not be put back.
If all the prizes have not been collected, he will naturally not be able to continue the lottery.
Fortunately, daily tasks and achievements have little impact. The system even humanely provides tasks such as [Cut down five trees], [Catch a pound of fish], practice, and study, which can be easily completed even on the island.
Kaito watched in agony as the gold coins increased but was unable to convert them into strength immediately.
After entering the house, Kaito took two deep breaths to calm himself down.
"First, let's take out the prizes that were not taken out before."
Except for the [Rare Candy] which was taken out and eaten by Kaito before, the other nine items are:
[Sound Bomb] (Blue item: When thrown to the ground, it will make a loud noise, disturbing the enemy and causing a small amount of sonic damage.)
[Big Pearl] [Rattata's Front Teeth] [Vulpix's Hair] [Blue Mail] [Yarn Ball] [Orange Cup] [Oil]*2
After Kaito received the prize, he just glanced at it and put it aside, planning to sort it out together after finishing the two ten-draw draws.
After all, he has looked at these items to be collected countless times when he was bored on the island before.
After rubbing his hands and praying silently in his heart, Kaito opened the Water Attribute Pool again.
Click, 20 consecutive draws!
The lottery light ball that had been seen three times this time turned into two balls jumping at the same time, but the purple light this time was obviously much weaker than the previous explosion.
Three colors of light shot out, transforming into 20 prizes that were presented one by one:
[TM: Water Style: Water Shuriken] (Purple item: Water Style Ninjutsu. After performing the hand seal, a water shuriken will be formed. The water shuriken will fly out at a very high speed to attack the enemy. Performing it in a water environment can save chakra consumption.)
[TM: Water Style: Aqua Jet] (Purple item: Water Style Ninjutsu. After performing the hand seal, a strong jet of water will condense under the feet, allowing the caster to move at high speed. Performing it in a water environment can save chakra consumption.)
[Power Anklet] (Blue item: Wearing it will reduce your own speed, but increase the efficiency of speed training.)
[Antidote] (Blue item: After taking it, it can remove most harmful toxins.)
[Dewgong's whiskers], [Goldeen's horn], [Repel], [Tiny Bamboo Shoot], [Sweet Honey], [Wood]*2, [Pokéblocks]*3, [Berries]*6
After Kaito took out all the items, his happy eyes narrowed into slits.
He picked up the still somewhat confused Blue, grabbed his little hand without saying a word and gave him a high five.
"Haha, now I have the ability to attack, move, and heal. Please call me an all-round warrior!"
"And Blue, I actually learned your signature skill first. What do you think? Are you envious?"
"┑( ̄Д ̄)┍quack~"
Seeing Kaito going crazy, the little frog had no choice but to cooperate and croaked.
After a while, Kaito calmed down and decided to learn the two ninjutsu scrolls first.
Although the system only instills the basic use of the ninjutsu, he still needs to practice more on his own later, but it is much more convenient than for ordinary people to learn ninjutsu, and he will have a general understanding of the ninjutsu he draws.
As for the rest, the [Power Anklet] is a good training item, a bit similar to Rock Lee's leg weights. Although it is a blue item, it should also have a good training effect.
Kaito directly tied the item around his ankle to feel it.
The speed will indeed decrease, but it will not affect daily life. In this case, Kaito plans to wear this Power Anklet all the time. Nothing is too much when it comes to helping improve one's strength.
"What a pity. I am now a standard water-style ninja. My combat power will drop rapidly if I leave the water environment."
"With my current chakra level, I can't use these ninjutsu many times unless I'm near water."
Although he has eaten the [Rare Candy] twice, according to Kaito's self-perception, the chakra in his body may not have reached the level of an ordinary Chūnin.
"As expected, since this body has no special physique and is still too young, its chakra capacity must be a shortcoming."
"It would be best if I could learn another jutsu to create water. The Water Style: Great Exploding Water Colliding Wave is probably too much of a luxury with my chakra. I think I can find a chance to learn the Water Style: Water Colliding Wave or the Water Style: Exploding Water Colliding Wave."
Kaito regretted that he did not exchange for a corresponding ninjutsu when he handed in the 'Water Style: Aqua Ring'.
Before, he felt that the C-Rank ninjutsu given by the village were a bit bad. Water ninjutsu can be obtained through lottery, and medical ninjutsu can be taught by Nakamura Keiko. In the end, he just exchanged it for monetary compensation.
Unexpectedly, what he lacked now was a ninjutsu to create water.
"But I don't have a sensei right now, and I won't become a ninja until tomorrow. I don't even have a channel to learn ninjutsu."
Kaito thought as he packed other things.
"Although there are still many shortcomings, the nearly two months of waiting did not disappoint me."
