Chapter 73 : Such A Drag

I saw the dead body of Dozu getting drowned in my shadow, I can't leave it here after all, and I felt nothing in particular.

My Shikigami tore the boy apart in front of me and I am surprised that I didn't feel anything regarding this. If this was old me then I would have freaked out at seeing a human dying in front of me, let alone one I killed myself.

Now this is not my first kill by a long shot but still to think that I have become so desensitised that even someone's death in my own hands is not enough to bring any sort of emotion to my face, maybe coming here in this world did had a price to be paid, it's just often we don't realised what we paid until its too long.

I can't help but sigh at this, though I don't like seeing I am getting used to killing, but in this world, once must be to survive.

On a positive note, I didn't have to kill the man by my own hands, both my toads and dogs did all the world. The only assistance I them was releasing them at the right time and giving them the element of surprise. Toads restrained the boy and dogs tore him into a bloody mess.

And with the help of little water jutsu cleaning afterwards wasn't that hard either.

Then the notification appeared in front of me, asking me to choose any of Dozu's powers which I wanted.

There was only one, the sound technique for which I killed the guy in the first place. I currently lack a close combat jutsu, can learn Rasengan sure but that costs too much chakra, not to mention not compatible with my sword skills.

But if I can use the sound jutsu alongside my sword technique and Genjutsu. Now that would be a menace.

However, this also means that I have to do more training…

Sigh, the grind truly never ends I guess.

With this, I still have 3 changes to get rewards from the system. Killing a Kage, become a Jonin and then become a Kage.

5 if I also add in the ridiculous mission of taming Manorama and stopping Madara's plan.

I have to be selective when it moves to higher-tier rewards.

…

One minute…

I suddenly realized something, Dozu died at Gaara's hand but he wasn't the only one who died right.

Baki also killed that always-sick exam proctor, one of the few early deaths which happened in the anime, I almost forgot due to him not being that important of a character.

I pause for a second when I register this, only now pondering this.

"Am I too late…, no should I even interfere, besides the fact that the man also being a Konoha shinobi, I barely know the man."

…

…

Whatever, while there is no point following the story considering I already got the Chunin reward, even if I forbid my match against Gaara then I have no grimace. And in this case, I shouldn't be bothered thinking about keeping the cannon for the sake of getting promoted, even if I say genin then it's fine.

Okay, I am saving that sick fellow…

With that in mind, I quickly body flickered up on the tallest building I could find… trying to find where was Hayate.

"Nah, it's too dark in the night to fight a fight taking place on any of these rooftops. If only my chakra sensing was better than this." I can't help but sneer at this inconvenience, it's really irritating.

But no matter, "Come out, Snow, Shadow… find that proctor guy quickly." I shouted and soon two dogs who are usually stationed in my shadow nowadays came out without performing any hand sign and started sniffing around.

I just hope that I'm not too late…

"Bark."

They got him, good.

"Take me to him…" I reply and simultaneously follow the dogs.

By the time I got there, I saw Baki, the Jonin sensei of the sand team, had given a vital wound to Hayate, I was late after all.

"Charge."

I shouted, not delaying anymore and the next second my Divine dogs rushed at Baki who was not expecting any sudden attack.

But he was a Joinin for a reason, he was able to dodge back at the last moment, wary of the dogs and staring at me with his single eye out while the other side of his face was covered with white cloth, no doubt he is trying to hide some sort of injury there. Why else he block his vision like that otherwise.

"No don't, get out call for help…" Hayate struggled to say this, he was barely able to say this let alone move at this point, blood was pouring out of him from all sides.

I have to heal him otherwise he won't make it, but can't reply around deer here, that will expose me, those wounds are not looking like something I completely heal either, but I am sure that with my current proficiency, I can stop the bleed and a save him at least.

Given that I can handle Baki.

"You are the one who beat that Uchiha Kid, I wasn't expecting you to get up and running around playing hero so quickly. Too bad for you kid but now I have to kill you." Baki replied with his face looking dark and chakra pouring out of him like he was ready to attack me.

Seeing this I knew that I had to choose fast. I can't fight him alone without my Shikigami, he is a Jonin for god sake. But I can't use Shikigami's in front of Gekko either.

"Such a Drag…"
