Naruto:The System's Shadow

Looking at his 13,000 points, Kaito felt a pang of pain. He should have had 14,000.

The system issued a reward of 1,000 for the mission to lure out the mastermind, and another 3,000 for the second-stage escape mission, for a total of 4,000 in rewards.

And Kaito himself killed five enemy chunin, which should have been a reward of 5,000 points, but the chunin he originally wanted to kill with exploding tags was killed by his own elite jonin, causing him to miss the reward and lose 1,000 points.

Later, he used Flying Thunder God to escape and killed another enemy jonin, rewarding 5,000, for a total of 13,000 points.

Kaito had long recognized that these points seemed like a lot, but they were actually not enough. They were only enough for an S-rank ninjutsu, and the rest couldn't even be exchanged for an A-rank ninjutsu.

Regarding the exchange, Kaito fell into a long period of contemplation. Now that he had Flying Thunder God, he was invincible whether he was chasing or escaping. In terms of attack, Rasengan was barely enough. As for genjutsu, there were no good genjutsu available. Tsukuyomi and Kotoamatsukami required 15,000 points due to his three-tomoe Sharingan, and Kotoamatsukami also required a ten-year cooldown, which was simply outrageous.

As for taijutsu, he could exchange for Eight Gates, but considering his body and thinking about Rock Lee's miserable state of only opening three gates after training from a young age, he silently threw the idea to the back of his mind. The Eight Gates, etc., should wait until he exchanged for the Sage Body.

After thinking for a while, he felt that there was no need for Great Ball Rasengan. With his current chakra control, he should be able to master it on his own after careful study.

"System, exchange for Shadow Clone."

"Shadow Clone, rank B, requires 1,000 points, exchange?"

"Yes."

Watching his points decrease by 1,000, Kaito felt a warm current appear in his body, knowing that he had learned Shadow Clone.

Shadow Clone is a very practical B-rank ninjutsu, created by the Second Hokage. It is simply an essential ninjutsu for home travel and murder.

In the era of the Five Great Nations decades later, if you are a ninja and don't know Shadow Clone, you would be embarrassed to greet others.

Naruto in the original work was complained by countless people for only knowing two moves, making balls and Multi Shadow Clone. The actual situation was almost like this.

But Naruto was able to level up all the way with these two moves, and killed many powerful people. Even with the protagonist's halo, it could be seen how powerful these two moves were.

Of course, Naruto's was Multi Shadow Clone, which was an A-rank ninjutsu, and required a huge amount of chakra. Although Kaito was confident in his amount of chakra, he didn't think he could reach Naruto's abnormal level.

According to his own estimate, if based on the data in the original work, his chakra number should be around 7, which is considered a lot, but he still needs to calculate the usage, and cannot release ninjutsu without thinking.

He didn't plan to exchange for the abnormal ninjutsu Multi Shadow Clone.

With 12,000 points left, he spent another 2,000 to exchange for Wind Release, so he became a Wind and Fire dual attribute, but unfortunately the Uchiha clan basically didn't have Wind Release ninjutsu.

As for the remaining 10,000 points, Kaito kept them for the time being. His own strength was not very strong, and having too many ninjutsu would lead to indigestion. Moreover, keeping some points had its benefits, so that the system wouldn't suddenly go crazy and issue a mission to jump into it, even though he knew there was a trap ahead. Keeping some points would be good to deduct at that time.

Moreover, 15,000 points could be exchanged for a Mangekyo Sharingan ability, which he was still very tempted by.

Opening his eyes, he didn't know how long had passed. The little maid was still stepping on his back. He smiled slightly and said, "Okay, go to sleep."

The little maid jumped down and bowed to him, saying, "Master, good night." Then she left Kaito's room.

He was left alone in the room, with a little starlight shining through the window. Looking up, the bright moonlight was filled with stars, which was brighter and more shocking than in his previous life.

Looking at this starry sky, Kaito's mind calmed down.

Uchiha Tajima doesn't trust me anymore, and there may be a second time for this. If every time, I expose new abilities, it will further deepen his suspicion. In the end, it's still my lack of strength. If I had Kage-level strength now, I could plan to find a chance to kill him, and even if it didn't work, I could fight against him. Now it seems that it's important to improve my strength as soon as possible. I can't stay in the clan for long. Starting tomorrow, I will actively take on some missions and go out to hunt ninjas from other clans to accumulate points.

Also, I need to step up my taijutsu training. Flying Thunder God can only exert its best effect when combined with strong taijutsu.

Also, should I start building my own power? The Uchiha clan was able to betray Madara in the original work, and may not be reliable even after Konoha is established.

Thinking about these things in his mind, they were intertwined, but one thing was clear, and that was to improve his strength. After all, the Warring States Period was still a place where strength speaks.

Unconsciously, Kaito fell asleep, and there was nothing to say overnight. The next morning, he woke up on time.

After washing up with the little maid's service, and eating breakfast, he went out. Before leaving, he told the little maid that he might go to take on some missions and would probably be back in two or three days, and asked her to take good care of the house.

When he went out, he saw the Ama no Murakumo sword still at the door, and after thinking about it, he brought it with him. In the future, if he encountered a ninja to practice with, he would use taijutsu to slash directly. If he really couldn't beat them, he would use ninjutsu. That was his idea.

Taking advantage of the early morning, he went to the training ground. There were not many people there yet. After practicing taijutsu for a while, Uchiha children came one after another. Seeing him, they quickly entangled him. Kaito guided them in some ninjutsu, and left before more people came.

Even in the morning, there were various ninjas coming and going in the clan, mobilizing various supplies, vaguely giving a feeling that a storm was coming. Kaito knew that this was the prelude to the war against the Hyuga.

However, he didn't plan to participate in this war. One reason was that his strength was still insufficient, and the other was that he was no longer trusted by Uchiha Tajima. Kaito wouldn't do such a thing as putting a hot face on a cold ass.

In the Uchiha Mission Hall, Kaito stepped into it. Looking up, the hall was empty at this time. The ground was paved with whole pieces of green stone, and on both sides near the wall, there were three stone pillars supporting the roof, with a red tinge in the green color, and the Uchiha clan's patterns painted on them.

Kaito looked around and saw that there were clan elders sitting behind the tables, issuing missions. There was about one every thirty steps, for a total of nine. Their ages were different, but without exception, they were all disabled.

They were all family ninjas who were injured on the battlefield, saved their lives, but could no longer come back as ninjas. So the family arranged for them to issue missions and settle missions, which was also a way to make the best use of their talents.

Now is the Warring States Period. As a large clan in the ninja world, the Uchiha had countless people coming to commission them every day, and the types of missions were also different, some asking them to be guards, some asking them to escort safely, some asking them to assassinate, and some asking them to kill mountain bandits. There were many types.

Kaito walked to the table of an elder who was issuing missions and said, "Are there any missions?"
