The Adventurous Gamer Ninja - Daichi Hekima [Vol. 01]

Chapter 34 - Meeting Ren Uchiha

His grandfather had left after giving him the three scrolls. Daichi stored them in his inventory and left home as well. He had a special goal in mind.

Daichi was walking through a forest near the outskirts of the village. He had been visiting various places within the village to find more dungeons. His journey was somewhat successful. He located another instant dungeon. He decided to save it for the next year.

Daichi hadn't gotten the reward for clearing the dungeon from the quest 'Path to the strongest'. He figured he would only get it at the end of the first academic year. He wanted to know what that reward would entail.

Now he was looking for a place to train. Somewhere quiet and away from people so he could test out his jutsus. As he kept walking he saw something unexpected.

Several round target boards were hung on trees all around him. As he looked at it he felt a sense of Deja Vu. 'Where have I seen this place before.' As Daichi racked his memory for an answer, it hit him.

'I remember now. This place. This is where Itachi practiced his shuriken jutsu. It's where he showed Sasuke his shuriken throwing techniques before Sasuke entered the academy. Oh man... That means I'm near the Uchiha clan compound. I better leave before I attract unwanted companies.'

Daichi turned around and was about to walk away but something stopped him. He opened his skill list and saw it.

Shurikenjutsu - Active(LV.89(95.7%))

Effects: +95% Increase in accuracy.

+85% Increase in damage dealt.

'This is the skill that increased the most during my dungeon fight. Makes sense. I wanted to keep those things at bay and I've been using shuriken and kunai at every fight against those beasts. I used chakra threads to control the speed and trajectory of the weapons. My increased dexterity helped me a lot in improving this particular skill.'

Daichi took a moment and looked at all the targets hanging on the trees. He wondered.

'Is it possible... Do I have Itachi's level of shuriken skill? He is a master with this technique. He could even hit targets in his blindspot...'

Daichi looked around and he saw another hidden target behind a rock. He wanted to know if it was possible for him...

'Can I do it? One way to find out, I suppose. Since I'm here I might as well give it a shot. If I want to be the best then I can't shy away from any challenges that come my way.'

Daichi took off his glasses and walked forward. He stood in the center of the clearing with the targets all around him. There were nine targets all around him in plain view and one hidden behind a rock. A total of 10 targets for him to hit.

Daichi stood still looking at all the targets and memorizing their locations. He spent a few minutes looking and engraving the position of each target into his memory. He took 8 kunais from his back pouch and held each one between his fingers. He closed his eyes, calmed his breathing and concentrated.

A familiar feeling came to him. The sensation of being in the dungeon surrounded by beasts that wanted to tear him apart. Daichi opened his eyes in an instant and jumped.

He jumped high and flipped upside down. His eyes landed on all the 9 targets in his view in an instant. His hands moved in a precise yet smooth manner. His fingers loosened and he quickly let go of each kunai he held between his fingers one by one.

All eight weapons left his hands within a couple of seconds. The first six of them were aimed at the targets while the last two were not. Without wasting an instant he took out two more from his back pouch and threw them in the direction of the last two kunais at a faster speed. Metals collided against metals and the force changed the trajectory of all four weapons.
