Chapter 4 - Chapter 4: Perpetual Motion Machine

However, it was only after Rikuya clicked on the exchange interface that he suddenly realized how valuable this skill was!

* …

* …

Staring at the dense exchange interface in front of him, Rikuya had never imagined such extraordinary things, except for some obviously expensive Sharingan and Rinnegan items.

Others can be exchanged for a small amount of skill points.

And after seeing those favorability items with extraordinary effects, Rikuya immediately thought of an alternative perpetual motion machine.

Rikuya breathed a sigh of relief. Now, he didn't have to worry too much about the future.

This is obviously a huge advantage in another sense, as long as he keeps his cool and focuses on early development.

However, just to be on the safe side and confirm his guess, Rikuya still said to himself:

"Exchange it for a High-Quality Favorability Multiplier Fruit and use it on Rei Yasha."

"Exchange successful, 40 skill points deducted, remaining 370 skill points!"

"If used correctly, Rei Yasha's favorability increases from nine points to eighteen points!"

"The user successfully increased his popularity by nine points and gained nine skill points!"

Sure enough, as I thought, even if I use items to increase favorability, I can still get the corresponding skill value!

Rikuya's heartbeat quickened unconsciously.

So it seems like there is a generation gap between the two.

You only need to spend 40 skill points to exchange for a high-quality fruit that doubles your favorability, and use it on anyone.

After a few days, you will get more than 100 skill energy points in return.

That's a 3~4x return!

Don't carelessly exchange other combat equipment in the early stages.

Just use favorability items to try to increase favorability as much as possible.

Then you can quickly double the accumulated skill points.

It's not difficult to collect thousands or even tens of thousands of skill points in a few days!

This is just profit without any investment. No, rather, I should pay a small price.

However, it only took one year to activate the system.

Compared to the benefits, this is nothing.

After thinking about these things about the system, Rikuya turned his attention to the upcoming Third Shinobi World War.

Even though he had read the original animation and manga several times in his previous life.

But come to think of it, that was almost seven or eight years ago.

Since entering college, Rikuya no longer pays much attention to Hokage affairs.

Especially after starting work, every day is filled with repetitive and boring work.

He almost forgot many storylines he had watched before.

Now that Rikuya himself is in this world, he must plan carefully.

At the same time, Rei Yasha who was silently guarding the door suddenly felt something in his heart.

She couldn't help but turn her head towards the door, her beautiful eyes filled with worry.

An hour later, everyone finished discussing the outline of the plan and then left.

As Jonin Aoki walked out the door, he looked back at Rikuya.

Rikuya waited for everyone, especially Chiyo and Ebizo, to leave before he stood up.

For the past hour, he had basically been an observer.

On the one hand, it was because he needed to recall the storyline.

On the other hand, Rikuya can infer the general direction going forward based on the characters' performance in the original storyline.

But if we break it down further, such as the placement of labor and the replacement of border defenses, he, a modern person who lives a stable life, will not understand these things.

Although Rikuya had also read many historical and exotic farming stories.

However, the situation in the ninja world was different, so he didn't dare to speculate further.

Rikuya had only taken a few steps when he suddenly smelled a faint scent.

Although Rikuya was not familiar with this scent, he was not unfamiliar with it either.

Rikuya looked at Pakura strangely who started following him closely.

"Pakura, what's wrong?"

Pakura tucked her hair behind her ear, and a faint blush appeared on her cold, white face.

Her eyes fell on Rikuya's face which was not particularly handsome but could only be described as above average, then she quickly looked away.

"It's okay, it's just that we haven't seen each other for half a month. How about we have a meal together?"

Rikuya then remembered that his favorability for Pakura had reached twenty-nine points.

By Pakura's standards, the two of them were already good friends.

Rikuya hesitated for a moment. He had never had a girlfriend or a female friend before he was in this body.

He returns to the rental house after work at 9.30 every day.

Just half an hour reading news and watching videos, and one hour playing games.

He spent the last half hour taking a shower and washing his clothes, then went to bed around 11:30. He was a very typical otaku-type office worker.

To be honest, he had absolutely no experience in communicating with women, so Rikuya was a little hesitant.

Even though Pakura turned her face away, she secretly watched Rikuya from the corner of her eye.

When he saw Rikuya not speaking, and the expression on his face was clearly hesitant.

His brows furrowed for a moment and he unconsciously crossed his arms over his chest.

A layer of cold ice began to cover that beautiful face, and the cold voice that originally did not contain any emotions was clearly full of disappointment:

"Why, did the future Fourth Kazekage-sama start to dislike his old friend?"

Rikuya suddenly showed embarrassment on his face, and he shook his head in defense:

"How is that possible? I was just thinking about where I was going for dinner."

When Pakura saw Rikuya's worried expression, she felt incredibly happy.

The lines on Pakura's face immediately softened, but her tone returned to its usual cold tone:

"Where are we going to eat? It's too much trouble to go to the restaurants in the village."

"If the two of us Jonin go out to eat together, there will definitely be a lot of people joining us, and the food there won't be good."

After stating her reasons for refusing to eat out, Pakura blushed even though she didn't realize it herself. She turned her head slightly:

"I remember you've never been to my house. Our relationship is so good, but you've never even been to my house. This is too unreasonable."

"Just come to my house and try my cooking."

Hearing this can be interpreted in various ways.

Even though Rikuya understood that nothing would happen with Pakura's favorability rating of only 29 points.

Most of the time, they just treat themselves as good friends.

But Rikuya is a man, specifically a sorcerer who has been single for twenty-three years.

He still couldn't help but look at Pakura's chest which looked even more prominent because she had her arms crossed.

Then Rikuya of course shifted his gaze to the white armpits exposed by the sleeveless clothes.

The skin under his armpits was smoother than snow, without a single hair, and looked glistening.

Then Rikuya directed his gaze down, past the excessively slender waist and stared directly at the long legs.

He kept looking at Pakura's white toes that were visible because she was wearing ninja sandals.

Her clear toes are very rounded and close together in a slanted line, which is typical of Egyptian feet.

The big toe is full and round, as white as a pearl, while the other four toes are smooth and slender, like white snow.

Rikuya looked at her toes that looked like a work of art, and couldn't help but imagine what her feet would look like after she took off her sandals. It must be very beautiful.

There are always sandstorms in Sunagakure Village all year round. There will be a sandstorm every few days, and even the entire Land of Wind is in terrible condition.

Apart from the hot sun, cloudy days are very rare.

He didn't know how the female ninjas of Sunagakure Village could maintain their fair skin in such a harsh natural environment.

After staring at her for a few seconds, Rikuya finally looked away reluctantly, nodded, and walked out the door.

In modern times, Rikuya wouldn't dare stare at a woman's body for more than ten seconds like this.

But because Rikuya came to Naruto's world and had a golden finger, he convinced everyone at the meeting.

His personality began to change subtly without him realizing it.

It was then that his hidden character began to be gradually revealed.

This change was so subtle that he didn't even notice it.

Pakura twisted her tight hips, stepped gracefully, and followed Rikuya silently with a slightly blushing face.

He of course noticed Rikuya's sharp gaze on him that lasted for more than ten seconds.

If someone else had done something similar, the hot-tempered Pakura would have taken action.

But facing Rikuya, his best friend, who is also his only friend of the opposite sex.

Not to mention hitting someone, he didn't even have the heart to scold them, for fear of ruining the friendship.

Moreover, Pakura felt an inexplicable joy and happiness in her heart, which she herself didn't quite understand.

Rei Yasha's eyes immediately lit up when he saw Rikuya walk out the door.

He was about to speak when he saw Pakura following closely behind Rikuya.

Seeing this scene, Rei Yasha was silent for a moment.

The light in his eyes dimmed slightly, but his gaze shifted uncontrollably towards Pakura beside Rikuya.

After just staring at Pakura for a few seconds, Rei Yasha immediately looked away, only to realize that his eyelids were getting heavier.

He laughed at himself in his heart and finally gave up on inviting Rikuya to his house.

Rikuya didn't know what Rei Yasha was thinking.

After greeting Rei Yasha as usual, he went down the stairs.

Pakura followed closely beside Rikuya.

As he passed Rei Yasha, he gave Rei Yasha a meaningful look.

Even though Rikuya doesn't realize it now.

But Pakura clearly saw the complicated look in the eyes of this little female ninja.

Rei Yasha also quickly noticed Pakura's gaze.

The two girls immediately exchanged glances and noticed the complex emotions in each other's eyes.

Quickly, Rei Yasha avoided Pakura's gaze and tilted his head to the side.

When Pakura saw this, the smile lines on her beautiful face deepened, and she felt an inexplicable happiness in her heart.

Rei Yasha silently clenched his fists as he looked at Pakura's body where he could see a glimpse of her white toes.

He felt angry in his heart. What's so great about having a good body shape? Is being a Jonin that great?

With my talent, I can become a Jonin in a few years.

Judging from my sister's body shape, if I grow up a few more years, my body shape will be as good as yours!

A few minutes later, Rikuya had just come downstairs and turned to say something to Pakura.

Then a rough male voice cut him off before he could finish his sentence:

"Master Rikuya, I want to spar with you!"

Hearing the somewhat familiar male voice, Rikuya immediately turned to look at the person who spoke.

He found that he was a muscular man who appeared to be in his forties, with a rough build and a short beard.

Rikuya's heart was beating fast. He hadn't even had time to exchange the items that could increase his fighting strength.

Why did someone suddenly challenge me so quickly?

Rikuya naturally recognized the burly man who was speaking. He was the senior ninja Aoki who usually led the meeting earlier.

He thought to himself, this is strange, because I was at the meeting and I didn't say anything that embarrassed him.

Although there are some words that might be a little offensive to his feelings.

But most of them stated the facts very calmly and did not want to challenge others just because of such a small matter.

He doesn't have a sarcastic face.

Currently, Rikuya is also in confusion.

The words he had just said at the meeting certainly would not offend Jonin Aoki.

But Jonin Aoki wouldn't challenge him for such a small matter.

Pakura, who was only half an arm's length away from Rikuya, saw Jonin Aoki request a sparring match. As an observer, she immediately understood what was happening.

Pakura looked around again.

It was just past four in the afternoon and a large number of Sunagakure Ninja were walking around the first floor of the office building, handling various matters.

Rikuya, Pakura, and Aoki are all at the top of the Sunagakure Village pyramid.

The three of them stopped outside the first floor of the office building, as if discussing something. This situation naturally attracted the attention of many people.

After seeing this situation, some ninjas just looked at it for a few seconds and continued to deal with the problem at hand.

But a small number of ninjas quietly stopped what they were doing, pricked up their ears, and chose to watch.

Seeing this, Pakura glared at Jonin Aoki in dissatisfaction, her emerald eyes filled with anger.

Author's words: This is a slow-paced book. The first few chapters are about introducing the situation and character appearances. I have tried to speed up the pace.
