Chapter 7: Survival Of The Fittest
The second my feet landed on the ground I activated my chakra field with 500m radius. I was proud of my sensory abilities since it had grown quite a bit. Many giant animals were in my chakra field. I lowered my seal's power a bit but didn't deactivate it. Both daggers appear in my hands in a small puff of smoke. I hold them in reverse grip, put one of my leg on a tree bark and launched myself towards where I can sense the highest no. of animals.
I arrived in a clearing five big wolves were surrounding a small baby fox. Somehow the fox had chakra reserves half the size of the wolf despite being the size of the wolf's head. I quickly made my mind that I will save the fox and from now on it will be my buddy. Two of the wolf's eyes turned on me they started growling on me since I was bigger target than the fox. One of them lunged at me I dropped down wind chakra flowing through daggers. I slide from below it cutting open its stomach. The wolf's blood cover me from head to toe. I wiped some of the blood from my face clearing my vision.
Second wolf was moving around me in circles. Measuring me with every footstep waiting for a right moment to strike. He suddenly lunged towards me claws and fangs gleaming in the sunlight meanicingly, I threw one of my dagger towards his head and started running towards the remaining three. While running I heard a howl of pain but didn't see behind me. I jumped on top of the wolf in the middle since he was the shortest of remaining three but while I was in mid-air he moved very fast and hit me with its claw.
I was a second late and three claw marks appeared on my chest. I was launched like a bullet. My back impacted the tree I growned in pain. The small fox was still there a large cut on its front left leg and right one broken. The little baby fox was whimpering in pain. I reached a hand towards him, it tryed going backwards but couldn't due to broken leg. It closed its eyes accepting it's faith. I put my hand on its head stroking him few times. It slowly opened its eyes fear clear in its eyes. I smiled which somehow sem to relax him. My eyes moved towards the remaining 3. The second one towards whom I had thrown my dagger was dead a hole through its head. A massive smile appeared on my face not out of happiness or sense of achievement on killing 2 of wolf's rather the smile was due to me thinking of ways to kill the remaining three.
This time the wind chakra increased the length of the blade. I dashed forward ready to kill all 3 of them. I removed a leg of the first wolf and jumped high wind chakra cutting through the neck of the second wolf. Before corpse would fall I put one of my leg on it and jumped towards the last one. The wolf wasn't able to keep up with my speed and got cut on its left side. The blood and its organs falling out of the cut.
All three of them were dead the fight was over. I started moving towards the small fox it take a step back but fall on its butt. It again started whimpering in pain and fear. I made few hand signs and reached a hand towards the wound on its leg green light enveloping my hand as I first numb the pain and then started healing slowly. I wasn't too good at using mystic palm jutsu. The only things I ever heal were small cuts on myself during training. The wound was larger than my daily cuts. The second the wound was healed I started to heal claw marks on my chest. Thankfully they did not leave any scars behind. As soon as I healed my self I get back to the fox. I take it in my arms and started to rub his soft fur as it leaned into my touch no longer afraid of me.
I gently take its right paw in my hand I started to use mystic palm all the focus on healing the broken bone. In few minutes it was good enough for him to walk. The little guy started to rub it's body against my leg since I had put him down and I was currently standing. I could have just taken him with me bet I wanted him to follow me on his own.
I started moving towards the wolf's I just killed. The fox just sit down near the tree. I started cutting the wolf's and removed eatable part seperate, fur, fangs and claws . I collect my dagger back and sealed the fur, fangs and claw in one of my empty sealing scroll. As for edible part of the wolf I needed water to clean them since my water chakra manipulation to even create a little amount of water was shit at best. I sealed the food in one of the preservation scroll. Now I had one more empty scroll and nearly more than 80 percent of space in the scroll in which I had stored claws, fur and fangs.
I started moving forward to find some water. The fox followed me by my side. A smile was on my face since I had win first match of survival. Around the evening I found a river. While coming here I had cut around 10 to 15 insects of giant sizes. I had never read about insects hence I didn't bother trying to finding stingers or poison sacs. The river was quite calm and peaceful. Since the fox has followed me till here I sit down in front of it put a hand on its head and asked him weather he want to be with me in my journey. It tilted its head cutely and make a motion like noding its head. I smiled and said it to wait here. I stand up and bolted towards the forest around 10 minutes later I returned with large amount of dried wood.
The fox was wet and had two small fish beside it. After seeing me it started drying itself, its hairs all were standing and making it look like a fluffy soft toy. I rubbed its head it look at me and started licking my hand.
I used D rank bonfire pit jutsu for a small hole to burn dry wood. I washed the fishes and wolves meat and sealed the extra wolf meat. I used fire chakra and lit the bon fire. I and my little friend filled our stomachs. Fox fell asleep I watched him for sometime thinking a name for him. He wasn't my pet but friend. I named him Hogen. I decided to tell him in the morning about his new name.
Then I the silence of night I started thinking about the levels my nature manipulation had reached. I can cut 8cm wide iron block with wind manipulation. In the past I was able to only cut a leaf, then twigs, branches, rocks, small metal scraps and now I am cutting metal blocks. Maybe in future I could do even better.
Then there were fire and lighting manipulation of my. In fire manipulation I could first burn a leaf , then with practice it was twig, branch, control body temperature, boil water in an instance and now am working on melting ground. As for my lighting manipulation I could first crinkle a leaf, then was able to keep low volt bulb active for 30 min without blasting it, then keep practicing with higher and higher voltage devices. Learned to manipulate nerves to make body do things I want. I was currently working to try to copy Eneru's attacks from one piece from skypia arc. I was able to shot the beam from my hand insted of sky. It was still devastating burning anything and everything in its path. But I can only sustain the bean for 30 seconds before I am completely drained.
--------------------------xxxx-------------------------
So here I end with first part of survival of fittest. I hope ya guys like this part I am making my character stronger to be able to atleast be of a help in 4 Great Ninja War.
Guys you may have noticed the rapid growth in nature manipulation of fire, wind and lighting and growth rate is unnaturally fast you can say it is his perk like thing so that he can manipulate all 5 elements easily.
