I Need Rest

Chapter 69: Orochimaru

(E/N: Yeah, today is special, there will be 6 chapters. (5/6))

On the way home, Ino looked puzzled. They had just finished the exam.

"Colt, why couldn't I give you the answers using my jutsu during the exam? I failed every time."

"What could be the problem?" She asked.

"Haha," Shaking his head, Colt explained, "Your family's secret technique is essentially a yin release technique, which is related to mental power. Your spiritual power is too weak, so n...

Chapter 68: Sabotage!

(E/N: Yeah, today is special, there will be 6 chapters. (4/6))

"Students, pay attention to not dirty the examination room!"

One of the teachers responsible for observing spoke unhappily at the disgusting sight.

Neji was sitting not far from him, and the vomit was really disgusting.

Seeing the miserable state of the two, Colt covered his mouth and snickered.

Hinata was the closest to Colt and could see his little movements clearly.

"Colt..."...

Chapter 67: Ultimate Genjutsu

When he checked the test paper, Colt smiled.

‘Is this even a problem for… humans?’

Even the smartest person couldn't solve any of these questions.

Looking at the exam paper as if it were a book that came down from the heavens, Colt gave up resistance and began to observe the embarrassment of the other candidates.

Obviously, for these budding kids, these questions were undoubtedly beyond their capabilities.

Except for a few ‘academic masters’ like Sakura...

Chapter 66: One S rank and one A rank?

Colt's face darkened as soon as he heard him, and he instantly appeared before Neji.

‘So fast!’

Neji couldn't even track Colt's movements.

Cold sweat dripped from his forehead.

"Hyūga Neji, right? From now on, pray you don't face Hinata in the Chūnin Exam," Colt warned coldly. "If she gets hurt because of you, I will kill you without mercy."

The indifference in Colt's voice made Neji's heart tremble. He felt genuine killing intent.

Before Neji could r...

Chapter 65: The mistake of Neji

Before leaving, Colt gave Naruto some intense training.

While Naruto wasn't weak, he tended to only get smart after taking a beating in most fights. This was quite frustrating.

Except when facing Sasuke, where he was surprisingly competent, Naruto was usually reckless and only fought back effectively after being beaten up.

However, with Gaara and his team's appearance, it was clear the Chūnin Exams were imminent.

The next day, Kakashi summoned the four to gather at th...

Chapter 64: Kankuro on the Brink of Death!

Seeing Guy like that, Colt understood that the Chūnin Exams were about to begin, marking the start of a momentous era in the ninja world.

But for now, that had little to do with him.

After a moment's thought, Colt decided to visit Tenten's ninja tool shop. His custom-made weapons should be ready by now. It was a new order.

Due to his ample funds, Colt had ordered 2,200 'feathers' at a cost of 150 million ryō.

That was equivalent to five Asuma, with each feather cos...

Chapter 63: The Chūnin Exam is Coming

Kurenai's face was flushed with embarrassment as she glanced at the water stain on the bed.

She wasn't usually one to sleep so soundly. Last night had been unexpectedly comfortable.

Colt stood up, inadvertently revealing his muscular physique and causing Kurenai's crimson eyes to widen. He certainly was very well developed considering his age.

"I arranged for you to stay in the guest room last night. I'm not sure how you ended up here," he stated matter-of-factly.

Hear...

Chapter 62: Did you drool on me?

Inside the Hokage building, the Third Hokage, though already informed by Kakashi's message, was still full of emotion.

"I didn't expect an ordinary C-rank mission to turn into encounter Kirigakure's S-rank missing-nin. Fortunately, it was your team..."

The Third Hokage didn't finish his sentence, knowing that if Asuma's team had received this mission, a safe retreat couldn't have been guaranteed.

He also gained a deeper understanding of Colt's strength. After nearly defeatin...

Chapter 61: Mind's Eye of the Kagura

Half an hour later, the most ornate building on the island exploded, and the entire structure was destroyed.

It was Colt who was done with his business and had reaped some amazing rewards from the mission this time.

After completing this task, Colt returned home and went back to sleep as if nothing had happened.

He was so good at sneaking around, not even Kakashi detected him.

The next day, when the villagers heard the news, they kept shouting their freedom.

Only...

Chapter 60: Getting Rich Overnight!

"I'll go first!"

At that moment, Colt stepped forward, forming a one-handed seal.

"[Wind Release: Great Breakthrough]!"

The mist on the battlefield was instantly blown away by the swift winds.

Kakashi, regaining his vision, quickly threw three kunais.

Haku stepped forward, water splashing at his feet.

"[Secret Jutsu: Thousand Flying Water Needles of Death]!"

Thousands of water needles flew out, some colliding with the kunai while others streaked towar...

Chapter 59: Bringer-of-Darkness Technique

(A/N: There will be 4 chapters today, let's goooo! This is as thanks to you, my patrons,)

Zabuza's pupils shrank as he stood on the tree, taking in the unexpected turn of events. Originally, Kakashi was the only opponent in his eyes, a formidable challenge he was prepared to face. Now, a young kid had shattered his executioner's blade with a single, precise strike, completely ruining the dramatic entrance he had meticulously planned. In desperation, he could only jump t...

Chapter 58: Split into two!

"Wait!"

Seeing the satisfied expression on Tazuna's face, Colt, who had been silent for a while, finally spoke up.

“Naruto, be more considerate in the future”

He first healed Naruto's bleeding palm, then looked down at Tazuna condescendingly.

"Old man, there's one thing you may be mistaken about. Concealing the true level of a mission is grounds for retribution from our Konoha Village."

Tazuna stammered, "Young man, what do you mean? Haven't I explained every...

Chapter 57: Teaching Moments, Ambush

Inside the Hokage building, Naruto was in high spirits.

"Grandpa Third, are you going to give us an A-rank mission?"

He had slept well and woke up refreshed, remembering Colt's words that the Third had promised them no more D-rank missions.

Though Sasuke remained calm, his eyes were also bright.

Colt was already far ahead of him. If he stayed in the village, he'd only fall further behind.

Only Sakura looked nervous about leaving the village.

"Naruto, A-rank...

Chapter 56: Learning from Minato

After a while, there still was no sign of him.

Colt grew impatient and peeled off a corner of the seal.

The Nine-Tails' chakra immediately rioted; it was desperately trying to escape. Though it didn't understand what this kid was up to, it knew this was a chance to break free.

"Kamiyo Colt, what exactly are you trying to do?" a helpless voice sounded in the space soon after.

Colt stopped and carefully fixed the seal.

“Arghhh!”

The Nine-Tails snarled in ...

Chapter 55: [Sage Art Wood Release: True Several Thousand Hands]

In the dead of night, all of Konoha seemed to have pressed the pause button.

Apart from the patrols moving in twos and threes on the street, no one else could be seen in the residential area.

A figure clad in black kept jumping, landing silently on the roof of a building.

Colt looked around carefully, avoiding the patrolling Konoha shinobis without attracting attention.

It was a waste of time to go home and sleep early, so he decided... to visit Naruto. For a certain i...

Chapter 54: The Rookie Nine’s Gathering

"Hey, Naruto, well done! Keep up the good work!"

Colt waved to Naruto while standing beside Kakashi.

His tone was obviously sarcastic.

Kakashi glanced at him a few times, his tone lazy.

"They're different from you. I won't take them on a mission if they don't understand the importance of teamwork."

"I think you just want to be lazy," Colt complained without hesitation.

"The Third Hokage already told me there's a task for Team 7 tomorrow."

"Anyway, we ...

Chapter 53: The Temporary Team Is Disbanded

On a crisp morning in Konoha, Colt walked to the Hokage building after leaving a detailed letter for Hinata and Ino.

He anticipated a prolonged absence, so he entrusted the two kunoichi with managing his house affairs. Or in other words, taking care of his dog.

The bustling village streets came to life as vendors set up stalls and ninjas hurried to their duties.

In the mission assignment room, Colt's eyes were drawn to the scrolls on the task board. Each represented a potent...

Chapter 52: I’ll be the Sixth

To express his apology, Guy actually invited Colt, Tenten, and Lee for dinner.

At Colt's suggestion, they went to a restaurant specializing in sukiyaki.

Might Guy was very happy.

In Konoha, there weren't many ninjas who could compete with him in taijutsu.

Except for Kakashi, there were only a few Anbu captains.

But Kakashi always fooled around with him; out of their 500+ duels, more than half were decided by rock-paper-scissors. As for the Anbu, they were usually...

Chapter 51: Colt vs Might Guy

Outside the ninja shop, Might Guy and Rock Lee were upside down, walking on their hands instead of their feet.

Even while waiting for Tenten to come out, they couldn't be idle, instead, they even started doing finger push-ups. The people around them kept their distance, fearing they might catch some serious disease from the two.

This was the scene Colt encountered as he exited the shop.

"Guy-sensei, Lee, let's go quickly," Tenten urged, moving them from the front of the ninj...

Chapter 50: Flying Thunder God Technique

After leaving the Hokage building, instead of going home, Colt went to the largest ninja shop in Konoha. 

"Hello, do you have any chakra-conductive metal here?"

"Yes, how much do you need?" A middle-aged man came out, and Colt told him his request. 

The other party looked troubled. "Sir, there is no problem with what you asked, but there is not much stock in the store for the time being, and the price..."

Colt's expression did not change. "How much do you nee...

Chapter 49: Instant Kill

There were five major countries in the Ninja world, and countless smaller countries among them.

Although nominally equal, these minor countries would not dare offend ninjas from the five great nations.

After learning that Colt and the others were ninjas from Konohagakure, the nobleman hurriedly invited them in.

Furthermore, once he heard that the Rain Shinobi Village had ninjas coming to assassinate him, he was almost scared to death.

"Ninja-san, please help me. I can ...

Chapter 48: Raijin No Ken

The events at the Hyuga household did not affect Colt in any way. 

At least, as can be seen from yesterday's conversation, Hiashi had no outright objections to the relationship between Colt and Hinata. At most, he had a dislike for someone trying to take his daughter from him…

However, the reason he was trying to act though, was only because he was concerned about the rest of the Hyuga clan. They would of course not agree.

Colt had always been puzzled by the branch ho...

Chapter 47: Talking is useless

[Editor/Note: Henceforth, the mc’s sword will be called as Kaminari and not raijin no Ken, because, the recent chapters actually mentioned the original one belonging to the second Hokage. I have gone to the past chapters and edited this too, so this is mainly for the patrons who are ahead of the WN release]

***************

Inside the tea room of the prestigious Hyuga clan, Colt and the Hyuga patriarch Hiashi faced each other formally, kneeling i...

Chapter 46: Hyuga Hiashi

"You go back first; I'll just report to Lord Third."

"After a couple of days of rest, we'll continue taking on missions."

Back in Konoha, Maruboshi Kosuke did not ask Colt to accompany him to the Hokage Building to hand in the mission report.

Anyway, the standard mission debriefs only needed to be registered.

Colt nodded when he heard this, "Then I will trouble you, Maruboshi-Senpai."

He did have the idea of going to see Hinata and Ino first.

As for the gif...

Chapter 45: Sukunahikona, Ten No Shiso

After sending the rescued hostages back to their villages, Colt and Maruboshi Kosuke received heartfelt gratitude from the villagers.

Colt had also successfully completed the first mission of his life.

Seeing that it was getting late, Maruboshi Kosuke proposed staying at an inn, in a nearby town for the night.

Anyway, there was nothing urgently awaiting them back in Konoha, Colt readily agreed.

Proper rest was also part of the training experience.

Coincidentally,...

Chapter 44: Kill the evil to protect the innocent

Colt was still a little excited about leaving the village.

After staying in the ninja world for so many years already, the farthest place Colt had gone to was the forests around Konoha.

Strictly speaking, it was still within the Fire Country's borders.

But this time, it was a true departure from the village.

Before leaving, Colt checked his ninja kit again.

Explosive tags, kunais, shurikens, and some ration pills.

Although with his physique, the chakra that...

Chapter 43: Temporary Teammate, Kosuke Maruboshi

Colt was happy, he had heard of this artifact before.

[Kaminari: The sword of the legendary Thunder God. It is extremely sharp and has various special abilities.]

[Ability 1: As the legendary Thunder God's weapon, your lightning-based ninjutsu power is greatly enhanced!]

[Ability 2: The size is adjustable. After the Host awakens the Susanoo, the Kaminari will also transform into a matching oversized weapon.]

(Editor/N: I renamed this, it was just Thunder god sword, act...

Chapter 42: System Upgrade, Kaminari!

The battle was over.

Due to the fog formed by the Fire Style and Water Style, Naruto and the others did not see the ensuing battle clearly.

When Colt and Kakashi appeared in front of them, their expressions became very calm.

"Kakashi-sensei, who won?"

Naruto, who was tied to the stake, was the most curious, watching them back and forth, trying to find some clues.

Sasuke and Sakura were equally curious, but didn't feel right to ask directly.

Especially Sasuk...

Chapter 41: Colt Style

The two stood opposite each other.

Looking at Colt and Kakashi, the trio of team seven were also very curious.

They wanted to know what was so special about Colt that would require Kakashi to assess him separately.

"Ninjutsu, Taijutsu, Genjutsu, Kakashi-sensei… you’re really well-rounded. You covered all the important parts for a ninja,"

Colt didn't rush to fight but chatted instead.

As expected of the top shinobi of Konoha, his abilities were truly amazing.<...
