So...been a while huh? To be honest, I completely forgot I had a webnovel. I was reminded by someone of the fact I did yesterday, or was it the day before? Well, either way. I finally remembered to upload here again. But well, good news at least for you guys I suppose, I've updated a ton for my main stories.

"Do you smell that?" Daiki smirked and asked aloud forty five minutes later as he leisurely hopped over the roofs of the village, making his way home.
'No…?' Isobu replied, and scoffed, 'You know I can hear your thought process right? I know you're about to say something lame and think it;s cool.'
"It's the smell of victory buddy." Daiki completely ignored his words as he replied, flipping into the air and casually somersaulting multiple times just for the heck of it.
'Smells exactly like the same old Konoha.' Isobu rolled his eye.
"Exactly, and since Konoha is the strongest village, it smells of victory." Daiki laughed with impeccable logic.
'I'm going to sleep.' Isobu replied simply, and cut their connection in complete defeat. Such was the power of Daiki's logic.
He continued laughing, he was in a great mood. Putting aside everything he'd accomplished on his mission, the hot and heavy encounter with Mei, the horizontal tango with Tsunade and the awesome date with Gyaru Fuu-
He'd made even more windfall within an hour of returning home to the village. The old man thought he was limiting Daiki with only giving him a half an hour. But he couldn't know, through Isobu he had the experience of a prodigy kage like Yagura to draw upon, not to mention the enhanced mental abilities and analytical prowess that came with the Shinkugan.
Memorizing multiple techniques from the scroll, had been childs play. And oh he had memorized them hard.
He'd picked out Bringer of Darkness first, before scrolling on through the scroll, memorizing the details for not only the Edo Tensei, but the Edo Tensei: Release which was what allowed Tobirama, Hashiram, Madara and such to escape control of others when revived. And even Tobirama's Mutually Multiplying Explosive Tags.
But he didn't just stop there. He brushed up on the official eight trigrams sealing style in full. He went over the details recorded about Izanagi and Izanami.
Took in the knowledge of the forbidden Reaper Death Seal. Proof read the details on the Eight Gates themselves.
And to top it all off?
He greedily usurped the knowledge of the famed Flying Thunder God jutsu. Truly, he had made out like a bandit, and the old man didn't even notice. Oh, he was most definitely aware he looked at those techniques on there for sure, but the old man definitely thought Daiki didn't have the ability to perfectly copy all that information and there was a ton of it. Tens of thousands of words went into just one of the technique.
He had simply memorized hundreds of thousands of words on how to use those forbidden techniques.
He landed in his backyard a few mere seconds later, pausing as he did so to cross his arms in thought, 'I've got quite a lot to train through now considering all the sealing techniques I found while on the mission as well,' he thought excitedly, the grind would be worshipped hard in the two weeks leading up to the third round, 'Though, I still need to get the last exercise needed for lightning training.' he mused.
He'd need it, so he could fully master all the five main elements. He probably could have gotten it off of the old man if he just asked.
But he needed to go pay a visit to Sasuke anyway and deal with the pedo hickey on his neck. So, he'd much rather extort Kakashi.
Because he was Kakashi, and making his life harder and annoying him, made Daiki a happy boy.
Speaking of extortion though.
He bit his thumb and ran through a few hand seals, before slamming his palm on the ground, "Summoning Jutsu!" he declared, and from the ground where his palm hit, a huge burst of smoke erupted.
When it cleared a few seconds later, it was to reveal the huge purple scaled form of Touka, "Daiki, finally decided to get off your lazy butt and work on those subpar sensory skills again?" she taunted as soon as she appeared.
Heh, the joke was on her, he was a sensor now.
…Even if it was more his physical sensory abilities she was always mocking, but still!
"Haha," he rolled his eyes, "But no, I've got a job for you. A pretty important and risky one though."
Her eyes lit up at the word 'risky', "Tell me more," she practically purred, bending down a bit so her giant head, the same size as his entire body was level with him, "The last one you sent me on, was childs play. I want a challenge this time."
"Don't worry, this one will be way more challenging," Daiki assured her, "There's an elder in our village, goes by the name Danzo, and-"
"Danzo Shimura, the rival for your current Hokage Hiruzen Sarutobi. He's lusted for the Hokage position for decades, and was or rather is the head of the shadowy underground Konoha Black Ops known as Root," Touka laughed as she spoke, showing off the Chameleon clans vast knowledge. Even old man Sarutobi didn't know Root was still active, but they did, "This has gotten interesting, tell me more Daiki." she was practically vibrating with eagerness.
Who knew stealth missions could give an adrenaline high?
Or maybe she got off on it? Damn perverted lizard.
"He used the cells of the First Hokage, to do illegal experiments to recreate the Wood Style bloodline," Daiki explained to her, "I want you to find his stash of Hashirama cells, and bring me some of it. It doesn't need to be all of it, and it would be better if it was just a small part that he wouldn't notice is gone."
Even a single cell would be enough to be honest. And between his own sealing abilities, Isobu's ability, and him now having access to the Body Revival Technique, he could for sure safely integrate it.
"Consider it, done." Touka giggled, and not long later, she disappeared in a puff of smoke after they ironed out all the details.
Leaving him alone. He looked up at the sky with a happy smile, "If she manages it, I'll give her an even more fun mission," Daiki mused happily, nodding to himself, "Now time to go take the piss out of Kakashi."
_______________
"Now then, where are you?" Daiki hummed to himself. Turning towards the training grounds, the scarlet red of his eyes glowed and his vision zoomed in.
Miles of distance rushed past his gaze, as he peered beyond the training grounds, past all one hundred of the basic training grounds, the Forest of Death, and into the huge mountain range on the outskirts of the village, that led into the Konoha animal preserve, filled with absurd creatures that could rival ninja, from Ostriches that could rival chunin, to even one odd huge rhino that could probably give a boss summon a good fight.
…Now that he thought about it, it was probably one of those same rhino species that Nagato had turned into one of his summons.
'The Rinnegan is so busted.' he thought idly. The Amplification Summoning Technique, that allowed summons to be enhanced through the connection with the doujutsu user through the contract, allowed them to gain absurd abilities.
Like, Nagato's dog summon gained wings to fly, shape shifting, regeneration, the ability to split into multiple bodies, and even self destruct.
Something he'd need to put thought into later for sure, if his plans to obtain the Rinnegan himself panned out.
'There you are.' he put those thoughts out of mind as his telescopic gaze finally locked on the exact location of Sasuke and Kakashi.
They'd made camp atop one of the mountains that had a wide flat plain at the top, and plenty of rocky outcrops and boulders.
The place was littered with craters. No doubt, from Sasuke's training in the Strong Fist and practicing with the Chidori.
Daiki made a single hand seal, and disappeared in a blur of shunshin.
Traversing the distance, took little time at all with the body flicker. It would, even without it really.
It wasn't long at all before he reached the base of the mountain they were training atop, and was about to walk up it, when a thought occurred.
"…Well, if Kakashi could do it." Daiki decided nodding to himself, reaching back and forcing one arm behind his back.
Even better actually, since he was wearing over a hundred tons, and Kakashi never trained with weights when he did this!
'Truly, Kakashi is a scrub.' Isobu snorted.
He took a small jump, only five feet to get him into the air a bit, and latched onto an outcropping on the mountain.
And then, with over a hundred tons weighing him down, and one hand behind his back, Daiki began to climb the mountain.
It was actually quite difficult, he learned rather quickly.
Because of how much he was wearing, he had to have a good grip to hold himself. While his weights did not effect anything but himself thanks to the seals, they still affected him, and climbing up a completely vertical mountain with little slop, using only one hand…while carrying over a hundred tons-
"Shit!" Daiki cursed as he gripped too hard, his grip turning the ledge he grabbed onto, into powder and he slipped, sliding gown, grinding his face and front of his body along the side of the mountain as he did so for a good ten feet, before he latched onto another and stopped himself.
"Well….that was something." Daiki pursed his lips and noted drily, holding onto the ledge as he dangled mid-air.
Well, it didn't hurt. His skin wasn't even scraped, he was just built different after all.
'Built like a scrub apparently, Kakashi got up way higher before he had to use the gates to finish.' Isobu teased.
Daiki, as the mature man he was becoming, did not dignify that taunt with a response, beyond clicking his tongue and swinging up to begin climbing again.
'Just gotta remember to watch my strength.' he told himself. Control, finesse and dexterity. He had massively sublime mounts of all of it, he could do it!
This was just an all new way of training within the path of the grind. Using his muscles in ways he hadn't before!
And once he was done with this and got to the top, and saved Sasuke from the pedo hickey, he'd go down and do it with his other arm!
___________________
It took quite a while for him to reach the top.
But, probably way quicker than Kakashi ever did, even without being weighed down.
And there was one simple, glorious reason for that.
It was called a healing factor.
'Well, more akin to regeneration at this point.' Daiki mused, as he ascended up the last ten or so feet grab by grab.
The more his muscles strained and ripped through training this way. The more they healed, and became stronger and more attuned to this training method.
Finally, on the last grab at the ledge, he full on hauled himself up with one hand and launched himself into the air, all a hundred and more tons as well, and a victory cry escaped from his lips as a manly bellow, "KAKASHI IS A SCRUUUB!"
"Well, hello to you too." Kakashi, who was already sitting on a boulder facing him as he landed, said giving him a dry look. While Sasuke was sprawled against the boulder bellow him, soaked in a fine sheen of sweat, panting and to his gaze, particularly low on chakra.
"Sup?" Daiki greeted them casually, winding his shoulder and working out a few kinks that had formed from his climb.
Sasuke rolled his eyes at him, "What are you doing here?" the older boy asked.
"Now is that anyway to talk to your best buddy?" Daiki grinned at him walking over, threading his hands behind his head, "You don't call, you don't write. Not even a simple message left behind for me saying, 'To my sublimely godlike and all powerful badass Lord Daiki, I am terrible sorry. But I must rectify my most incredibly weak and tedious existence, and like you seek to get good.' You hurt my feelings bro." he shook his head, tutting at him.
"Is that true Sasuke?" Kakashi gasped, looking down at him in disappointment from where he sat above him, "I….I'm so disappointed in you as my student."
"I am going to beat you until you forget your own name." Sasuke promised him, completely ignoring Kakashi.
"Kinky," Daiki's grin widened, before he cast a look around the top of the mountain, taking in the many, many large craters littering the area, he whistled, "Looks like you've putting in some real hard training huh?" he praised.
Sasuke smirked, chest puffing out-
"You must really be desperate to beat Naruto in that Sexy Jutsu show down." Daiki added, and Sasuke faltered immediately, glaring at him.
"I loathe your entire existence." Sasuke groaned in annoyance.
"That's basically a love confession from an Uchiha," Daiki snorted, making the other boy groan, "But in all seriousness, I came to make good on that promise of mine to deal with the hickey on your neck."
"Oh!" Sasuke perked up.
"Oh?" Kakashi leaned forward in interest, "I heard you were off on a mission with Anko. Does that mean you were successful with dealing with her own cursed seal?"
"More than successful," Daiki shrugged, and met Sasuke's dark onyx eyes, "I even learned how to break down the chakra making up the fragment of Orochimaru in the seal, and gave it to Anko, and I'll do the same for Sasuke."
"Seriously?" Kakashi's eyebrows raised.
And Sasuke grinned, "How much chakra are we talking here?" he asked eagerly, pushing himself up.
"Hmm," Daiki examined Sasuke with his eyes, before nodding, "About half your total amount of chakra, or thereabouts."
Both of their eyes widened, "That much?" Kakashi gaped, "That's…quite the substantial amount. Sasuke already has as much chakra as an upper tier Chunin, with this he'll be well into the jonin level."
Sasuke's eyes widened even further if that were possible, "…Jonin huh?" he tested the word, licking his upper lip, before smirking, "Let's do this then." he nodded determinedly.
"What, you don't want to chat and catch up?" Daiki teased.
Sasuke scoffed, "There'll be plenty of time for that after the third round, no doubt you'll bug me as you always do," he replied, before pointing at him, "I plan to get as strong as possible during the rest of this month and beat you in the finals. The more chakra I have, the more I can train. So let's get a move on."
"Fine fine," Daiki waved him off, before looking at Kakashi, "I'll do it and get out of your hair real quick. But I want something from Kakashi."
"I don't do fashion tips." Kakashi shrugged.
"You call that fashion? I thought you just dressed up as a scarecrow to scare away birds after you became Sasuke's sensei cuz Itachi has crow summons." Daiki shot back.
Sasuke's head shot up, "He what!?" he demanded, "How do you know that? Actually, what else do you know about him?"
And was ignored, "I want the master level exercise for lightning elemental training," Daiki told him, "It's a fair deal right. Dealing with the seal for it."
"Don't ignore me!" Sasuke stomped his foot.
"I seem to remember giving up the tips on how train dog summons for that." Kakashi replied drily.
"Seriously?!" Sasuke huffed, "You're doing this on purpose. You both think your hilarious don't you? Let me tell you, you're both idiots!"
"And now I've discovered how to give a chakra boost in the process," Daiki lied, he''d known about that since he dealt with his own seal, "He'll get a massive boost to his chakra and be able to actively use the seal safely to power up, so stop being a stingy cunt for once in your eternal existence as a virgin, and hand it over."
"Screw it, whatever!" Sasuke threw his hands up and walked away.
"I'm not a virgin you know." Kakashi pointed out drily.
"Your hand doesn't count." Daiki shrugged.
Kakashi's shoulders slumped in utter defeat, "Fine, you greedy foul mouthed brat."
Daiki grinned, "Pleasure doing business with you."
_____________________
"I feel amazing!" Sasuke laughed uproariously not long later. Purple chakra swirled like a raging inferno around him, so palpable it was visible to the naked eye. He clenched and unclenched his fists, before pumping one high into the air with a victorious shot, "Yes, this is incredible! Amazing! Unreal! I've never felt so powerful before! This is great! I am amazing! Yes! I can do this!"
Daiki raised a brow as he watched Sasuke celebrate his increase in strength, the flame like markings of the Cursed Seal, or rather the Heavenly Seal as he'd changed it to, spread over his body and enhancing him safely. 'Ah, I remember when I had my first power high.' he mused fondly, recalling the first time he called upon his tailed beast cloak.
And honestly, Sasuke had a right to celebrate. As he was right now, by Daiki's estimates, he wasn't that far off from when Daiki's chakra capacity had broken into the Elite Jonin tier going by his status screen.
Just like Naruto, this Sasuke was on a completely different level than the Sasuke from the original timeline during the chunin exams now thanks to this. Honestly, he was actually already stronger due to all the training and sparring they did together for months, this just jettisoned him even further ahead.
With the heavenly seal boosting him, this Sasuke was probably solidly on the level of a Jonin.
And he still only had two tomoe in his Sharingan.
"Lovely, he's full of energy," Kakashi sighed from beside Daiki, handing over a scroll containing his own spoils and what he needed to complete his lightning training, "Thanks for that. Now I'm going to have to exhaust him all over again. I'm not gonna be able to read at all today at this rate. This always happens when you're around kid."
"Skill issue." Daiki shrugged simply.
Now then. He looked away from the show Sasuke was putting on, gazing back towards the village, 'I've got a couple more stops before I can seclude myself away to train myself silly.'
He had a cute spunky little apprentice to check in on, and a possible girlfriend to be to visit.
