Chapter 205: Plundering Hidden Jutsu
Academy Dungeon.
Daichi's senses alerted him to several fast projectiles coming from behind. Even in the middle of fighting several opponents he was able to jump to the side and easily avoid all the weapons.
He looked at the 3 Genin level ninjas surrounding him and inwardly smiled. 'Everything's going just as expected. My clones have drawn out a large bulk of the enemy forces and separated them all over the dungeon. Still I've been fighting for only about 8 hours. I've only just started. Based on my 'Observe' about 100 of them are High Chunin level, with the rest all below that, all the way down to Genin.'
Daichi narrowed his eyes and swiftly moved towards his enemies. He easily broke through the weak defenses of the low level ninjas and finished them off.

At that moment an explosion was heard coming from a distance and a large chunk of experience came Daichi's way. Along with that several new notifications appeared as well.
[A new skill is created with a specific action.]
'Haven't seen this message in a while. Wonder what it is'
[Through continuously forming plans and different tactics to defeat enemies in battle, the skill 'Battle Insight' has been created.]
[Battle Insight - Active/Passive(LV. 01): This skill gives the user the sharp instincts of a Warmaster and strategist. Helps the user find a way to defeat the enemy.]
[Effects:
Allows the user to determine the enemy's weaknesses, characteristics and plan of attack.]
[Note: Effects of this skill will be weaker against higher level enemies and those with special abilities. But these limitations can be removed once Player and Battle Insight skill reaches sufficient Level.]
'Wow. It's been a while since I got a new skill. Nice. I won't say no to this... Hmm I wonder if I can improve this skill when I play shogi with Gramps?... Battle Insight huh. This will be excellent when fighting people like Shikamaru.'
Daichi had instructed his clones to use the several Military strategies and tactics that Kakashi and Kensei taught him. He wanted to improve his situational awareness and battle wisdom.
'I'm still not at the level where I can curb stomp anyone that gets in my way regardless of their number, strength or plans So for the moment I'll have to fight like this.'
[You have sensed killing intent.] X4
Daichi was well aware of the dungeon ninjas gathering around him. Their number increased with each minute but they were cautious.
Daichi looked at his enemies and their attack position solidified a theory he had since his battle started here.
'These guys They're different from the other enemies I've fought in other dungeons. They know my strength and are cautious. They're surrounding me and want to overwhelm me with numbers.'
Daichi also noted the positions some of the ninjas took. He used 'observe' skill and saw that some enemies with higher intelligence were glancing at the ground and terrain around them. 'Based on their stats they're Chunin level ninjas. And their intelligence stat is much higher than the Genin ones. Judging by their position and movements they're looking to use the environment against me and attack from a distance.'
[Mental intrusion detected.]
[Unyielding spirit has neutralized the foreign attack.]
It looked like the Genjutsu attack was the signal. Immediately several enemies made hand seals that Daichi recognized.
'They're going to use 'Earth style mud river' to destabilize me.'
The other dungeon ninjas launched Kunai, Shuriken, Paper bombs and several Ninjutsu of various natures. Daichi was surrounded with attacks of all nature coming from different directions. But it didn't matter to the young Gamer.
The second Daichi felt the intrusive Chakra trying to attack him, he went through seals and created two shadow clones with instructions already in place.
One of the shadow clones immediately went through seals and stopped the enemy's Mud River Jutsu. 'Earth style - Hardened Core This will make sure my position is safe and since my control over the Earth Nature Chakra is far greater than theirs they won't be able to over power me.'

The other clone and its creator both were going through several hand seals at super speed. The Dexterity stat and Agility stat allowed Daichi to make about a dozen seals in a second without any mistakes. Both of them went through seals in perfect synchronization and completed it at the exact moment.
'Water Style - Water Wall Jutsu'
[Water Style - Water Wall Jutsu - Active(LV. 35): This technique creates a wall of water around the user to protect against enemy attacks. The water source can be taken from the surroundings or the user kneads chakra and converts it to water nature and spits it. A skilled user of Water chakra Nature can create this jutsu using the water particles in the atmosphere.]
[Rank: B.]
[Shadow Imitation Jutsu is plundered. Would you like to acquire this skill?] Y/N
'This is the Nara Clan's Hidden jutsu. Hmm If I learn this jutsu, then I'll be able to learn how to manipulate Yin chakra much more easily in Ninjutsu. That will open whole new doors for me Yes. Give me the skill system.'
[You have acquired Shadow Imitation Jutsu]
New information on the hidden jutsu of the Nara clan flooded Daichi's brain. 'So that's how it is. I'll need to see if Kensei has any more info on the Nara clan before I start using this.'
[Double Slash is plundered. Would you like to acquire this skill?] Y/N
'Yes.'
Daichi looked at the details of the attack and nodded. Double slash is a Kenjutsu attack that involves slashing twice swiftly in a row with a single blade. A cut in one direction is attempted and then the blade is immediately reversed and swept back in the other direction. The speed at which these attacks occur takes less than a second.
'Speed, technique and dexterity is paramount for this skill to be used effectively. If a single error is made in the initial slash then both cuts will miss or not do enough damage. And not enough speed or not enough precision can mess up the attack Hmm I'll definitely need to practice it with some weaker enemies before taking it against the stronger ones.'
[Detection Seal Jutsu is plundered. Would you like to acquire this skill?] Y/N
'Yes. Definitely. I'll have to learn sealing jutsu during the three year training arc. Assuming that even happens.'
Daichi looked at the skill that appeared in his list and smiled. 'A simple Sealing jutsu used as a ward to detect motion. An ambush or a stealth attack can be warned against by this seal. Depending on the Kanji or paper used, the seal itself will have a variety of ways to notify its user Although it can't sense chakra flow, light changes or sound Well, it's something at least.'
Daichi looked at the last one on the list and it was also a hidden jutsu. One from the Akimichi clan.
[Expansion Jutsu is plundered. Would you like to acquire this skill?] Y/N
'Yes. Not gonna say no to more hidden jutsu.'
-
Several hours went by with Daichi and his clones battling throughout the Academy dungeon. Since his stats were high and the dungeon was a relatively weak one, the young Gamer decided to use direct frontal assault.
[Skill Killing Intent's level has risen by one.]
The dangerous intent flowing from Daichi paralyzed several enemies near him and he used his dagger to finish most of them quickly. He quickly went through seals and created a water prison jutsu that trapped that last person.
[Water Style - Water prison Jutsu - Active(LV. 40): This technique traps the target in a sphere of water. The water can be drawn from the surroundings or expelled from the user's mouth. The user or a clone must have contact with the sphere to maintain it. At higher levels this limitation can be removed.]
[Rank: C.]
[Type: Ninjutsu.]
[Hand Seals: Snake - Ram - Horse - Hare - Ram - Ox.]
[CP Cost: 150.]
[Note: The higher the level of this skill the stronger the water sphere making the targets movements more restrictive. ]
Daichi looked at the ninja and spoke. "Your body is quite strong. And based on your stats I'd say you're a high Chunin level ninja aren't you.?"
The enemy ninja didn't say anything and just gazed at Daichi in defiance and struggled in the Water prison.
"Yeah I know you can't talk. I'm just curious to see if you can escape my water prison." Daichi started compressing the water sphere and soon the enemy's health was reduced to zero.

[You have leveled up.]
'Two level ups in one day. That hasn't happened in a long time.'
Daichi looked at the timer and realized that he had spent almost 19 hours in the dungeon. 'Should I stay till the whole 24 hours are up or leave Nay. I'll leave. I left the shadow clone with Shikamaru and the others. If anything happened to it they would be suspicious. Better get the hell out of here before anything like that happens.'
Daichi exited the dungeon and found himself back in the storage closet. He created a shadow clone and dispelled it letting his clone know that he's back.
The Gamer ninja waited for a while before the door opened and his doppelganger showed up.
"Any problems?"
"No." The clone shook his head. But then with a mischievous smile spoke. "But there is a development. You can see it for yourself."
With that he dispelled himself and the chakra and memories returned to Daichi.
The real Genin went through the clone's memories and sighed. 'He was right. I can't believe Shikamaru was the one that came up with it and my clone agreed to this. A birthday party for Naruto I just hope nothing goes wrong Wait Did I just jinx myself?'
