Chapter 21: Chapter 20

The next morning, Yoshi woke up with a big yawn, he got out of bed and stretched his body. He did everything that a person supposed to do after waking up. He took a nice cold bath and wore his same cloth style. Black shirt and knees length shorts with an addition of black jacket with no button. Then, he went to the kitchen and made a breakfast for himself. Nothing fancy. Just three slices of bread with some butter on top and no milk. Honestly, Yoshi doesn't like milk. He preferred coffee than anything else, if there's anyone offer him a bag full of money and a cup of coffee and ask him to choose between those two, no need to think anymore. He say 'hi' to the coffee and 'bye' to the money, easy peasy.

Anyway, get back to Yoshi. He was peacefully eating his food when suddenly he heard a knocked on the door. Yoshi went to the door and opened it to see a man with white hair and a mask on standing in front of him. Everyone knew who it was.

"Is there anything I can help you with, Kakashi?" Yoshi asked with a little bit of annoying since it's still early in the morning like 6:00 am.

"Oh, nothing. I just came here to check on you. Lord Hokage asked me to keep an eye on you temporarily because of that incident. Well, looks like you are fine now. So, I'll be going then." Kakashi said and disappeared after that.

Even though Kakashi has leave, Yoshi knew there was still some Anbus around his house, monitored him. Even though Yoshi can't sensed them, still he knew they were somewhere on the trees or roof.

'Sigh. Things are getting more troublesome.'

Yoshi then went back to the kitchen, but he doesn't eat the food anymore, instead he started cleaning the table and put everything back at their place.

ROOT'S BASE

An old man with a cane and bandages wrapped around his head through his left eye was seen standing at the middle of the base. In front of him was a masked man wearing black clothing and gray flak jacket was kneeling on one of his knees with his head looked to the ground. The man was an Anbu whose worked for the old man, Shimura Danzo. Once the Candidate of Sitxh Hokage and the founder of Root Organization and also the leader of the organization.

"What is it?" Danzo asked with a calm but stern voice.

"Danzo-sama, I came here to give a report about the boy. He's already awake from the coma and now was being watched by several Anbus under the commands of the Third Hokage. Even an elite Jonin, Hatake Kakashi volunteered himself to keep an eye on the boy. For now, there's nothing out of expectation happening."

"Is that all?"

"Yes, Danzo-sama."

"Alright. Good job. Still keep an eye on the boy and report to me immediately if there's anything happen." Danzo finished his word and was about to turn away to leave, but suddenly the Anbu with masked on stood on his feet and asked a question, stopping Danzo on his tracks.

"Danzo-sama, may I know why you ordered us to keep any eye on the civilian boy. Since the incident three months ago, you've been focus on the kid. What's so special about him?" the Anbu asked, forgot for a moment who he was talking to.

"Are you questioning my actions?" Danzo said with a frowned.

"I won't dare, Danzo-sama! Me and the others are just curious as to why we have to keep an eye on a normal civilian boy who doesn't even have a last name." the Anbu said abruptly. Tried to cover up his mistakes of asking questions without thinking first. He knew he could die right here, at this moment just in a flash. He knew the old man with a cane in front of him was not an ordinary person. The old man could just kill him without moving from his place if he want to. And there's no chance for the Anbu man to run.

"Curiosity killed the cat. Try not to pry into someone else's business if you're not being told to do so. And do you really think the boy is just an ordinary civilian without a last name? I have a hunched his not, but I still don't know what is it yet. Now stop asking questions and go back to your post."

The masked Anbu nodded and was about to disappear when he heard his master said something that made him shuddered.

"And one more thing. Forget about what we talked about earlier. If anyone else know about this, I will hunt you down myself." Danzo said while gave the poor Anbu a death and cold stare before turned and walked away.

The Anbu could feel his heart was beating faster and so he left the base. Don't want to be there any longer and went backed to his task.

*******

In the mean time, in the forest near Yoshi's apartment. Yoshi could be seen sitting on the ground, cross-legged with his eyes closed and both hands on his lap. He was trying to control his chakra through his body on his will. Surprisingly, Yoshi's chakra has been unlocked by who-knows-who and don't know when and Yoshi just realised about this when he was doing exercises. He could feel something was moving inside his body when he was running and soon the feeling disappeared after he stopped.

So now, Yoshi was trying to find that feeling again and at the same time tried to control it. After a while, Yoshi finally felt something flowed inside his body. He tried to channel his chakra to his eyes for a test and surprisingly when he open his eyes, he could see some ants not so far away from him as clear as crystal. This just proved that he was successful in channeling chakra to the spot he want to on his own will. Filled with satisfaction, he cut the chakra power just now and his eyesight went back to normal. Yoshi then smiled as he was thinking.

'Since my chakra was unlocked and I already gained control of it, why don't start doing the impossible?' Yoshi monologued to himself.

The impossible Yoshi talked about was actually about the water surface walking and tree climbing practice that seemed impossible to do back at his world. Yoshi was so excited to do it, but before he jumped to that practices, he must do the Leaf Concentration Practice first. He doesn't want to skip any practices and jumped to the advanced one.

Yoshi picked a random leaf near him and placed it over his forehead. After doing so, he began closing his eyes and tried to concentrate and channeled his chakra to his forehead.

(A few minutes later)

Yoshi was able to hold the leaf from falling down from his forehead for about 35 minutes. Pretty good for a beginner and in just a few hours. Yoshi also realised this Leaf Concentration Practice was so easy for him which doesn't supposed to be so, unless that someone was a GENIUS. And he doesn't convinced that he himself was a genius.

'Nu'uh. Not in a million years I would become a genius. I maybe knew the theory of how to control the chakra but I never actually did it before, so never thought I could master it in my first try. Well, I guess I just accept that I was a little bit talented. Still not agree with the genius term. Since chakra control was about concentration, then I guess thanks to me in the past for practicing martial arts.'

Yes. Back at his own world when Yoshi was still alive, he used to practice martial arts with an Asian man who was a general before retired from the military. Yoshi coincidentally met this man when he was about to be robbed and beaten by some thugs at the alleyway. The Asian man of course saved him while showing off his ability. Yoshi who was being a kid that time was impressed with it and begged the man to teach him the moves. Pity for Yoshi, the man taught him some of the martial arts that he knew and passed all his knowledge to Yoshi. Yoshi has being taught how to boxing but not in the ring. He also being taught Karate and Taekwondo. On his time of learning martial arts, his body got more fit and his reflexes became sharp and of course you needed concentration when fighting and Yoshi achieved that too.

After a few flashback, Yoshi then rosed up from his position and stretched his hands and legs before walked towards one of the tree inside the forest. Without wasting anytime, he began to channeled his chakra to the bottom of his legs and put his right leg on the tree surface. Waited for a few seconds, Yoshi then took a breath and closed his eyes before slowly putting his other leg on the tree. After doing so, he doesn't felt any changes but when he opened his eyes, he could see that his legs was already glued to the tree and doesn't seemed like he's going to fall over soon.

Seeing this achievement, Yoshi walked slowly towards the top of the tree while still concentrated on controlling his chakra. After awhile, Yoshi stopped walking as he reached the top of the tree and sat on it. Just at this time he realised that it was already evening and almost sunset. Judging by how many achievement he got today, he decided to retire from the training and went back home. He walked back down from the tree with a calm expression. As soon as he landed his left leg on the ground, suddenly a black letter appeared right in front of his face, floating in the air. Yoshi was shocked and stumbled back a little bit from it.

After regained his calmness back, Yoshi walked closer to the floating letter and inspected it first. The letter seemed familiar to him and he thought he have it one just like this. After 5 minutes of inspected it, Yoshi finally decided to grab the letter. No harm was done when he grabbed it and so he opened the black letter.

Reading the letter, Yoshi realised that the content was the same with the black letter he got back home.

'What is this? The content was same with the mission letter I've got from the– Wait.... Don't tell me I just triggered the mission?!!!'

And yes.Yoshi was correct. The missions letter has been triggered that caused him to accept the offer by the Reaper by completing the missions. And the mission that Yoshi did without realising was the tree climbing practice which was part of the basics Ninjutsu that he supposed to master. And now without his consent, he need to complete all the current missions and in the future later to end all this.

At this moment, Yoshi doesn't know what to say except blamed himself and his idiocy. Yoshi also realised that the mission which wrote 'Master all the basics Ninjutsu and Taijutsu in prior of 4 years or less' began to expand it's territory into some list of something which has been split into two sections. The first section was a list regarding the basics Ninjutsu and the second section was about a list regarding the basics Taijutsu. In the list of basics of Ninjutsu, Yoshi could see that at the end of the list was some white letters that slowly turned into red. The letters wrote 'The tree climbing practice' which the thing he did earlier.

'White letters turned to red. Guess mission completed for that one. Sigh, I don't know whether to be happy or mad. I don't have any intentions to do this things in the first place, but because of my idiocy that made me forgot to burn the letter first, I've got no choice but to accept it.'

"Sigh~"

Yoshi sighed for the last time and closed the letter back. As he did so, the letter suddenly turned into a black smoke and went into his left hand. Yoshi shocked for a few seconds until he saw a tattoo on his wrist. He then sigh again.

"Really?? A tattoo for a 8 y/o kid?? Is there something's wrong with this Reaper's guy head. Sigh~" Yoshi said almost whispering to himself 'cause he doesn't want the Anbus that watched him to heard what he said.

'Speaking of that, does they saw the floating black letter earlier? I hope they don't or I need to start write a make up story for that.' Yoshi thought to himself as he was walking out of the forest and to his apartment while putting his both hands in to the pocket to cover up the tattoo.

After he was back home, the sun was already set and so he went took a bath and ate his simple dinner and yes he doesn't eat lunch today but whatever. After he was done with the dinner, he went to his bedroom and lied on his bed. He made sure that his bedroom window was closed shut and drew curtain to not let anyone who was outside to see the thing that was printed on his left wrist. Yoshi looked at the tattoo for awhile. The tattoo was a parchment scroll with two skull behind the parchment and some drawing that worked as a background.

(A/N: The picture is in the comment section of the above paragraph:))

"Wonder what Kakashi's reaction will be if he see this. He must say 'What' and dropped his book. Haha. It's not like I'm going to show it to him. Yawn~"

He then stopped his observation when he became to feel sleepy and yawned for a several times. He then pulled his blanket up to cover his body from the cold and slept through the peaceful night while waiting for the next day to come.
