But after school Naruto I spent time together. Today we spent it sparing together in the academy training yard. From the beginning of the school year nearly two months ago the training yard had slowly become more and more crowded. We however didn't have a choice, confined to one small corner so as to not attract too much attention.
Luckily thought most of the crowd left by 4, since their parents demanded it. Naruto and I could stay there much longer. Today we finished the training at 5 and we our separate ways. Naruto wanted to prank a store owner that had refused to let us buy groceries for breakfast the other day.
I told him I wasn't really feeling it and told him to go nuts, promising to meet him home. Plus...there was no quest alert, seemed like a pointless waste of time. So I let Naruto do his own thing while I decided to continue my hunt for the 30 legendary spots in Konoha where I might find a golden leaf!
There was one place I had yet to try which I knew would have a golden leaf for sure, the memorial stone! Kakashi was obsessed with it, plus it was important to the entire village, there has to be one there!
So finding directions to the stone I walked over, keeping track of where I was going. And soon I found a pathway that lead directly to the stone, walking into the edge of training yard seven, so technically I wasn't breaking my promise to those two ninjas who gave me my very first weapon.
I found the stone quickly, tall black thing that shined in the day's light. But oddly enough, I wasn't the only one there. A ninja wearing a dark green flannel jacket with a face mask covering his lower face and had silver hair that stood up defying gravity. His headband was pulled down over his left eye and his right one looked sad as his fingers traced a name on the stone.
Kakashi Hatake, Copy ninja Lv- ?
REP- 0 "You know, it's rude to stare," the man called out, not bothering to look up.
I gulped, damn, a living legend right before my eyes. I blinked, "s-sorry."
The man looked up and his eye softened, almost looking like a smile, "it's fine. I was just done away." And then he suddenly disappeared in a whirl of leaves leaving me alone. Damn, I Really go to learn that jutsu!
I sighed and approached the stone. I looked down and saw the names, so many damn names. All dead….and for what? Because some moron thought they were big shit. And don't even get me started on the fact that Obito Uchiha's name is on this thing, damn bastard's still alive!
I sighed, 'okay, not the time. Focus! Find the golden leaf!' I then began to look around. It took me an hour of active searching before I finally found it nestled under a rock a few feet away from the stone;
Ping!
Congratulations! You have found a legendary spot: Memorial stone! Locations found in Konoha: 4/30 Select your reward!
+800 EXP +5 stat points Random armour drop Random dead ninja's speciality jutsu Okay, I'm starting to see a pattern here. Exp, points, something that involves luck and a fourth option of sure fire chance that might be useful. However in this case I ended up with two random drops, which could be anything. Damn it.
Thinking logically I should just take the stat points to be safe, but, I really really really wanted to take a chance now that I can actually use some chakra. My luck it right now 12, not bad but not good.
So which do I pick? Experience points is out, it's far too little. The stat points are important, but so predictable, I want to live a little! The armour drop is important, but no, the one I was going to pick, and I know this for a fact, is the speciality jutsu!
Because, if I'm understanding this right, this would include the previous Hokages' speciality as well. Meaning if I'm lucky, I can get the Lighting god step from Minato! Or maybe a random earth jutsus from some fallen cunt.
Damn it! I don't care! Justus here I come!
Ping!
You have obtained the jutsu: Spiral flame techniques!
The golden leaf let out a poof of smoke as a scroll appeared in my hands. I didn't recognize the jutsu, but since most ninjas in the village do have a fire I'm assuming whoever I got this from was just some grunt.
I looked around, I didn't want to risk someone seeing this, so I opened my inventory and put the scroll inside to be opened later. Hopefully the jutsu would be worth the wait!
I walked away, not intent on finding more golden leaves. I racked my brain and only came up with a few options. One, the hokage tower, but it's too high profile, I need to improve my stealth before I approach that. Two, the hokage mountain, but it was too damn big! Sigh. And three, the orphanage I stayed at.
Honestly, I don't know why I didn't bother looking there before! It's obvious, since Naruto lived there, there must be a golden leaf there as well! I had to try.
It was getting dark soon, but I didn't care. I knew around this time everyone would be at lunch and I had twenty good minutes to look around.
First thing's first, I looked around the walls, quickly running around, observing them from the inside and out. And then I went inside, sneaking past people as I looked into rooms and even the showers.
I wanted to continue, but the kids were quickly returning! I cursed and ran to the exit, only to see the watch man and returned, and this man was new, I didn't know his watch patterns!
