The massive investment in stat points consequently granted me several perks as well – four in total as a result of my VIT going past 150 and reaching 200, DEX going past 150 and INT reaching 200. Including the INT perk I received when it had reached 150 a week ago, I ended up with five new perks.

[Greater Physicality] (150 VIT)

+20% increase to max HP

+20% increase to HP recovery rate

-20% to physical damage taken

Greatly increased stamina

[Lesser Regeneration] (200 VIT)

[Mental Skill Proficiency] (200 INT)

Both my HP and CP instantly broke past the ten thousand mark, both reaching 13,200. Because the effects of the perks stacked, my HP and CP received a thirty percent boost to their maximum capacity.

Furthermore, my natural HP regeneration rose to a jaw-dropping 1029 every minute because [Lesser Regeneration] literally doubled it. Naturally recovering my HP from zero to maximum capacity would only take a little less than 13 minutes. I was quickly reaching the level of self-regeneration possessed by an average jinchuuriki.

I could immediately feel the change in my body after emptying all those free stat points in my status page. The strength and vitality coursing through my veins was intoxicating while my chakra reserves seemed to be overflowing.

Such an unnatural and sudden gain in strength and power for any other person might have been hazardous to their health. After all, what I had experienced was akin to a few years' worth of dedicated training for the average shinobi.

The normal way a person built muscle was a complex process of breaking down muscle fibre and letting it naturally heal and grow stronger from this process. One needed time to break it down and heal over prolonged periods of time to achieve discernible growth. The same went for enlarging your chakra reserves.

Yet, I had acquired strength and power that required years of training in a single instant. It was purely because of my Gamer's Body that ensured no drawbacks to this freakishly extraordinary jump in my physical capabilities.

I had little time to continue pondering over this sudden and astonishing growth as the zombies surrounding me had already started moving towards their target – me.

With my newly acquired strength, I was more than confident of slaughtering this horde of zombies who had ambushed me.

I pulled out Kanshou and Bakuya from my inventory, my already enhanced stats receiving another boost from their item effects. The two short swords, one black and one white, with their curved shape glowed from the surge of chakra channelled into the metal that made up their form.

This bluish layer of chakra then sharpened, as the energy wrapped around the two blades was transformed into Wind Nature chakra when I activated a skill I acquired under Asuma's tutelage.

It was a skill I had yet to master, since Nature Transformation training took a long time to become proficient in, yet alone master. As the two skills [Wind Nature Transformation] and [Fire Nature Transformation] levelled up, it became increasingly harder to increase their levels. However, my expertise in Wind Nature transformation was enough for me to learn and create this new skill – [Wind Blade Flow].

Not satisfied with just this skill, I vigorously pumped chakra into my limbs, activating [Chakra Enhancement]. With the [Greater Chakra Sensitivity] perk that increased all chakra-related skills by forty percent across the board, I was eager to see the extent of my strength under this new amplification.

To make up for my disproportionately lower strength, I activated [Bull's Strength], which increased my STR stat by a further twenty percent.

With all of these buffs layered on me, I sprinted towards the closest zombie and swung my twin blades. Kanshou and Bakuya sliced through the creature with ease, meeting little to no resistance even as Kanshou cut through a wakizashi the zombie genin had hastily put up in defense.

Magnificent. (AN: SUBARASHI)

With the Sharingan boosting my visual acuity in addition to my various skills enhancing my speed and strength, [Whirlwind Steps] and [Power Strike] respectively, I proceeded to tear through the rest of the zombie horde with surprising ease.

At times when the Undead Uchiha Genin congregated, I unleashed devastating Katon jutsu to thin their numbers while hastily erecting barriers of wind when I found myself besieged.

It took only a little over ten minutes before the final zombie fell.

A brief examination of my status showed that I received scant injuries, a few bruises and scrapes here and there when I was attacked from my blind spots, but it would only take a few minutes for my HP to naturally recover to its peak. My CP, on the other hand, was reduced to about half its maximum capacity – a consequence of my liberal usage of B-ranked jutsu and maintenance of the various buffs on myself.

Killing over a hundred of these level 30 Undead Uchiha Genin naturally awarded a correspondingly immense sum of EXP – to the point where I was able to level up another three times.

Indeed, entering the dungeon and grinding for EXP was the fastest way for me to gain strength. It would take an all out war in the real world for me to be able to kill so many high levelled individuals and acquire that much EXP outside of quests. Coincidentally, there was actually a war coming my way soon enough, one that I was determined to benefit from as much as I could.

The only strange thing was that no loot orbs were dropped in the process of killing the zombies, which confused me, but my doubt was instantly cleared up when a glowing purple orb suddenly appeared in the middle of the cemetery as well as an announcement from the system that entered within my sight.

[Congratulations! You have eliminated the Boss!]

[Rank D Dungeon cleared!]

It seemed that the dungeon system or whatever dictated the happenings within this parallel dimension decided to give me the dropped loot from the hundred zombies all at once. With this phenomenon, I was sure that this horde of zombies was the representative 'Boss' of this dungeon.

Approaching the loot orb and grabbing a hold of it, I could see what I received from slaying the 'Boss'.

[Loot Gained:]

+230160 ryo

Maniac's Cloud Snack (Rare)

Glass Eye of the Prophet (Unique)

[Maniac's Cloud Snack – Grade: Rare]

A cigarette pack with 20 cigarettes. All stats slowly increase from 1% to 20% for five minutes as you smoke the cigarette. Effect is removed if cigarette is removed from lips for more than five seconds or if it is destroyed.

[Glass Eye of the Prophet – Grade: Unique]

User acquires the skill [Clairvoyance] when equipped. Item needs to be implanted into the user's eye socket for item effect to activate.

I was never a big smoker in my previous life. A couple times at parties, but never regularly. With the new item I acquired now, however, it seemed like I was about to pick it up again. I wondered if Asuma would be proud if he saw me smoking. Would he think I was imitating him?

The second item on the other hand had me recoiling when I read the item description. As tempting as the skill [Clairvoyance], meaning precognition or remote viewing, sounded, the idea of removing one of my eyes and shoving a glass eye in it's place sounded horrendous to me.

Though a part of me did wonder if a night's sleep would be able to cure me of any sort of blindness if I removed an eye, implant the glass eye then popped it back out again, thanks to [Gamer's Body] curing all status effects. Still, I would never do something like that… right?

Before I could continue pondering over the myriad possibilities the ability to see the future of which I had changed so drastically would open up, a sudden announcement from the system broke me out of my thoughts.

[Congratulations! The Hidden Boss has appeared after becoming enraged!]

[Warning: You cannot leave the dungeon until after the Hidden Boss has been eliminated!]

Goddamn dungeon system is even changing the rules now!

Out of nowhere an even bigger horde of zombies than the one I had just slaughtered came rushing into the cemetery from its sole entrance.

I instantly activated all the various buffs to enhance my fighting ability, preparing myself to once more face a zombie horde. However, contrary to my expectations, the horde of zombies did not rush to drown me in a massive pile of rotting corpses and vile viscera.

Instead, the creatures weirdly began climbing up on top of each other, forming a small hill of zombies that were clambering to get higher and higher, creating some sort of haphazard, undead human pyramid.

But as they continued climbing and eventually started forming a gigantic humanoid shape, I realized this looked a little familiar. The top half of its massive body was vaguely humanoid, with arms, a head, and a torso. While the bottom half of its figure was just a mass of zombies clumped together.

[Uchiha Legion Zombie Lv 40]

HP: 150,000/150,000

CP: -

A writhing mass of Undead Uchiha Zombies that have gathered together to eliminate the nemesis of the living-dead. They will stop at nothing to kill you, the one who has terrorized the pitiful restless dead, unable to peacefully pass on without getting killed by a ruthless monster.

Their hatred for you who have killed countless of their kin is immeasurable.

Wait hold up, by ruthless monster did they mean me!? How am I the bad guy here!? Why is the system trying to make it sound like I am invading a peaceful community of farmers and peasants when they are literal zombies! What was I supposed to do, not kill zombie monsters to farm EXP and loot their valuables?

And really, a Legion Zombie? Good grief, the system is really running out of ideas huh? Careful or you'll get sued for copyright infringement!
