Bonus chapter

"Heh. No matter which faction you belong to, sorry… you're already on the system's kill list."
Although Isamu had other ways to deal with them, he didn't want the trouble. The fastest method was simply to eliminate them directly.
Using the Body Flicker Technique, Isamu instantly appeared in front of several genin.
He drew the Tang-style horizontal saber he hadn't used in a long time.
Before the genin could even react—
A flash of steel cut through the air.
Under their shocked gazes, Isamu ended their lives in an instant.
"Don't blame me," Isamu said calmly as he looked at the three corpses.
"If you want someone to blame, blame yourselves for standing on the wrong side."
Afterward, he dragged the bodies onto the road. Using their blood, he wrote a few words on the ground so Jiraiya and the others could deal with the aftermath.
Then Isamu headed straight into the Land of Hot Springs.
---
Not long after, the three following behind arrived at the scene.
They immediately noticed the bodies lying on the ground.
"Be careful. Don't get careless," Orochimaru warned as he studied the corpses.
"They might be pretending to be dead to lure us in."
"I'll just test it," Jiraiya said.
He pulled out a kunai and threw it.
Thud!
The kunai struck one of the bodies. A small amount of blood slowly seeped out.
Seeing this, Orochimaru relaxed slightly.
"If they were alive, the wound would be bleeding heavily. Since it's only this little, they're already dead."
"Safe."
The three approached to inspect the bodies, while Tōwa stayed back, too frightened to get close.
"Huh… there's writing here," Tsunade suddenly said.
The others quickly looked over.
Written on the ground in blood were the words:
[Bury the bodies.]
They immediately guessed who had written it.
"This guy is treating us like laborers," Jiraiya complained.
"Stop whining," Orochimaru said calmly.
"It's already good enough that he isn't making us charge ahead."
As he spoke, Orochimaru and Tsunade started burying the bodies.
"Yeah, yeah. I was just complaining," Jiraiya muttered as he joined in.
Soon the three finished burying the corpses and continued deeper into the Land of Hot Springs.
---
Meanwhile, Isamu had already entered the country.
However, instead of continuing to slaughter enemies, he began searching for the leader behind everything.
"Damn… I should have asked Tōwa where the boss lives."
"My sensory range is limited, and now I have to search while moving. This is painfully slow."
Isamu moved quickly through the forest, avoiding patrols from the weaker ninja.
After searching for a long time without results, his patience began to wear thin.
"Damn it… how long is this going to take?"
Finally, he stopped.
"If I can't find you…"
"Then I'll force you to come out."
A spinning sphere of chakra formed in his hand.
Wind Release: Rasenshuriken.
"Come on out, little fish."
He hurled the attack into the nearby forest.
BOOM!!
The Rasenshuriken exploded violently, its wind blades shredding everything around it.
An entire section of forest was instantly flattened.
Hidden in the distance, Isamu quietly waited for someone to take the bait.
---
Meanwhile, Tsunade, Jiraiya, and Orochimaru had entered the Land of Hot Springs.
They quickly discovered that many enemy ninja were stationed nearby.
Instead of attacking immediately, they hid and observed.
Since Isamu had gone ahead to clear the path and enemies were still present here, they assumed he must have his own plan.
So they stayed hidden and waited.
Then—
BOOM!
A huge explosion echoed through the distance.
"What the hell was that?" Jiraiya said in surprise.
"It should be ninjutsu from Big Brother Isamu," Orochimaru said calmly.
"Don't worry. His strength is more than enough to handle it."
"Unlike us."
"But we can't just sit here forever," Tsunade said anxiously.
Hearing that Isamu was already fighting made her want to help.
"Be patient," Orochimaru replied.
"An opportunity will come."
Tōwa remained silent.
He had already seen Isamu's strength. In his mind, there was no doubt that Isamu would win.
---
Hidden nearby, Isamu's Shadow Clone watched the group and nodded approvingly.
"Not bad… not bad."
"At least they didn't rush in recklessly."
"Orochimaru really does have a sharp mind."
Then he rubbed his hands impatiently.
"Meanwhile the main body is having fun up there… even using Rasenshuriken."
"Now my hands are itching too."
---
Elsewhere, the ninja occupying the Land of Hot Springs were already panicking.
"Damn it! Where did that explosion come from?"
"Did another ninja village attack us?!"
"Why are you panicking?" another ninja snapped.
"If the sky falls, the boss will deal with it. What are you afraid of?"
"But we're just genin! Even if the boss is strong, he's only one person!"
"What's all this noise about?"
A tall man stepped forward.
It was their leader.
Rheindal.
The crowd immediately fell silent.
A subordinate with chūnin-level strength stepped forward and whispered in his ear.
"A powerful enemy has invaded. None of our outposts noticed anything."
"If it weren't for that explosion, we wouldn't even know someone had entered our territory."
"Hmph," Rheindal snorted.
"Daring to cause trouble on my territory?"
"I think this fool is tired of living."
"We have powerful backers. What's there to fear?"
He grabbed his large sword.
"Brothers! Grab your weapons and follow me."
"I want to see which idiot dares to stir up trouble here."
---
Soon, the group arrived at the site of the explosion.
The forest had been completely flattened.
"Is this the place?" Rheindal asked.
"Yes, Lord Rhine. This is where the explosion happened."
"Which idiot dares to cause trouble in my territory?" Rheindal shouted arrogantly.
"Get out here right now!"
"Let's see how I teach you a lesson!"
Hidden nearby, Isamu smiled.
So arrogant… perfect.
"Let's test this technique on you."
Lightning began gathering in his palm.
Chidori.
In the next instant—
He appeared directly in front of them.
"Hey," Isamu said calmly.
"Which ninja village are you working for?"
"Speak honestly now… or don't blame me for being impolite."
He had already guessed the situation.
Some ninja village was secretly building influence here in preparation for war.
Finally seeing the intruder, Rheindal burst out laughing.
"So it's just a brat."
"Impolite to me?"
"I'd like to see how you plan to do that."
Earlier he had been worried a powerful enemy had arrived.
But now that he saw only a young boy, his fear instantly turned into contempt.
"If talking doesn't work…"
Isamu raised his hand.
"Then watch this."
Using Chidori as a catalyst—
Lightning gathered in the sky.
A massive thunder beast formed among the clouds.
Kirin.
Unlike Sasuke's Kirin, which required natural lightning, Isamu's version had been exchanged from the system and could be used anytime.
The ninja below stared upward in horror.
"Look! A monster in the sky!"
"How could something like that suddenly appear?!"
"Did he create that?!"
"If that attack comes down… we won't survive!"
Even Rheindal's face turned grim.
As a jōnin, he could clearly feel the terrifying chakra within that technique.
I didn't expect this kid to create such a terrifying ninjutsu…
If that attack falls, my men will be wiped out.
Even I might die.
But then he remembered the deal with that hidden ninja village, and his expression quickly hardened.
"Hmph."
"You think I'm afraid of a mere ninjutsu?"
"Brothers!"
"This technique only looks powerful."
"It's nothing to worry about."
"Don't be afraid!
