Naruto: Systematic Shinobi
Chapter 47: The Land Of Loot - 10

It was a little bit awkward to just sit and chat with the lady who turned him down, on her part at least, Daiki didn't really mind, but she apparently felt bad about it.

Thankfully, neither of them had to deal with the awkwardness for much longer, because about roughly fifteen minutes after she turned him down, the office doors behind her slammed open, and a large man with messy brown hair, wearing a long buttoned up trench coat stormed out, a white headband depicting the symbol of the Artisan Village atop his forehead, and a large completely black doubled edged sword, with a shining green jewel held in the tip hanging on his back.

He paused for a moment as he caught sight of Daiki, before sneering, "A Konoha shinobi?" he narrowed his eyes at him, before spitting in disgust and walking away, leaving the room.

Daiki watched him go, before turning to Ochako and raising an eyebrow at the older woman, "I thought you said you guys don't have shinobi anymore?" he asked, curious.

Not to mention, he recognised that guy. He was one of his four targets after all, how lucky.

She gave him a shaky grimace of a smile, "..We don't, he's an exception though…I suppose," she sighed, "He's part of one of the four families that served the creator of this village and are against not having our own shinobi forces and us doing business with your village in particular."

The hell did the guy have against Kono- "Is it cuz the Nidaime Hokage killed the creator of this village?" Daiki asked. S~ᴇaʀᴄh the NʘvᴇlFire.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

He'd been surprised to learn that tidbit when he was checking out information about the village before his mission.

"Yes, sorry about that," Ochako apologised, bowing her head for a moment before standing up, "Ehm, one moment Daiki, I'll let Tomio-sama know you're here."

She stood up from the desk, and made her way into her leaders office. Daiki eyed her backside as she went, it was too bad she was turned off by the age thing, she was pretty hot, a nice rack and she stretched out that pencil skirt she was wearing nicely.

Holding up his hands in a cross seal, he summoned a shadow clone to his side. His copy immediately blurred, disappearing to take care of the mission he created it for.

To follow that cunt that just left and find out where he was going.

Moments later, Ochako came back out and let him know the village leader would see him now.

__________________________________________

The village leader wasn't really in the mood for visitors after dealing with his unpleasant guest, so it was a pretty quick meeting, in and out, handing over the package he was given to bring and accepting the payment to bring back to the Leaf Village.

After that, Ochako was, more or less happy to show him around the village, especially the shops sealing weapons, though she was still walking a bit on eggshells around him.

He decided to nip that in the bud, "You know, you don't need to feel bad or awkward about turning me down," he brought up, "It's not a big a deal, I'm not offended or anything."

Ochako sighed, "That's good," she accepted, "I still feel bad though, it takes a lot of courage to ask somebody out after all."

"Maybe," he agreed, for others, "It's kind of not a big issue though, at least to me, when I put my life on the line fighting enemy shinobi all the time, it doesn't seem as hard to do."

She paused in her steps and grimaced at his words, but he pushed on, "I just thought you're pleasant and beautiful, so shoot my shot," Daiki shrugged, "If we he hit it off, cool, if not, could have still been a fun night to remember." he chuckled, and winked at her.

It was funny, how knowingly pursuing a path where his life had constant threats to it, made flirting, or at least making his interest in hot girls, incredibly easy and not a big issue.

"Oh…" Ochako uttered, before the meaning of his words seemed to fully register and her cheeks went rosy red and eyes wide, "Oh!"

"Yup." Daiki unashamedly confirmed.

"Oh…oh wow," she cupped her cheeks, "You're really bold, huh?" she peeked up at him, she was a short lady after all, barely reaching five feet, which made her curves stand out.

"I know what I want, and I go after it when I do," Daiki grinned at her, and boldly let his eyes roam over her body, then met her eyes, "And you're definitely worth wanting."

"G-give me a minute." Ochako sputtered, face going neon red and turning away from him for a second, probably to gain her bearings.

Daiki froze just then, a rush of memories slipping into his mind. His clone had just dispelled itself, giving him the information he needed.

He quickly made a clone, covering the smoke with a quick transformation and disappeared out of sight, leaving the clone to take his place and enjoy having the older woman show him around.

He had an objective to complete.

Daiki made his way to the roofs, moving in a blur of speed too fast for any civilians to notice.

He made his way to the southern district of the village, where a large property surrounded by a huge, spiky topped gate surrounded the perimeter.

Despite the size of the property, it wasn't exactly packing in decor. There was a huge semi-circular mansion, spread around a grand mausoleum.

Considering the fervent boner these guys had for their dead leader, he was willing to bet that was where the corpse of that Seimi twit that got ganked by Tobirama was resting.

'…maybe I should tag his coffin?' Daiki mused with a grin. A big ol' 'Daiki waz here bitchez' just for a laugh.

He shook his head, nah, that would be way too juvenile. Mostly because he didn't want it to be known he was involved with them while they were still in the village.

His story relied on them specifically being out of the village after all. Which was why he was going to make them disappear, alongside the corpse of their former leader.

'Grave robbing now I see.' Isobu commented, he sounded exasperated.

Daiki shrugged, he had to do what he had to do.

Not replying back, Daiki focused his chakra into his eyes, allowing him to see through surfaces like the Byakugan, almost immediately, he clocked on to four figures, all gathered within a large room within the centre of the mansion.

'There we go.' he grinned, and focused more chakra into his eyes and focused and voices echoed in his ears.

"-is completely outrageous." one voice started, coming from the largest of the four, a tall, broad man.

"Indeed." another, the shortest agreed

"He's a fool, what do you expect, a peace loving weakling fool," the only female of the quartet spat, shrugging her shoulders, "Traitorous too, they don't understand the greatness of our families mission to bring Seimi-sama back and get back at the Leaf Village and all the others who have mocked us."

"Quite right Kujaku," the one he'd followed here nodded approvingly, "That's why, we'll just have to do this ourselves. With our ultimate weapons, it won't be hard defeat the Shukaku and use its chakra. We just have to be patient for a time when the Jinchuuriki has left his pitiful village and gone far enough for us not to be fingered, and then we'll slaughter him, drain him dry and kill all the fools of this village for their ignorance, those who do not support Seimi-sama do not deserve to live."

The other three burst into cheers and shouts of agreement, happily listing the names of villagers they were going to personally enjoy killing and blah blah blah.

'They seriously took a sip of the crazy juice didn't they?' Daiki snorted. shaking his head in disbelief.

These guys really did think a guy who got ganked and killed easily by Tobirama Senju over fifty years ago, a guy they'd never even met, was the be all and end all to everything.
