"OOMPF! U-UGAAAH!"
SPLATTER!
After battling Kabuto Yakushi's teammates, Rei fled the area, continuing to let his "compass" guide him. Having already traveled several kiloters, his sprinting was put to halt when a sudden pain struck his stomach. Locating a large boulder to provide so shade from the blistering heat of the sun, Rei began to vomit
Oddly enough, it wasn't food that ca out, but a strange black substance...
"This stuff, it's the sa as the ti I completed my first physical purification with the Black Scroll. Which ans I'm barfing impurities right now, but at such a level...it has to be poison. Cheh! If I see those two again, damn the consequences, I'm gonna...!"
Easily putting two and two together, Rei confird the attack he received from the "Demon Brothers" as a result of defending Iruka Umino, was in fact a poisonous one
Due to the effects of the Black scroll's first lock, Rei's immune system had reached entirely new levels. Any foreign factors would imdiately be targeted and dispatched by his white blood cells. However, this feature, along with others required chakra to work properly
At the mont, he was dangerously low from not only his most recent fight, but all the other unknown confrontations that took place when he lost consciousness, and "Neo-Rei" took control
"Now I know why I can't knead chakra properly, the energy is being diverted to fight off this...urgh--annoyingly persistent poison! Sigh...those Mist assholes must've really wanted
dead hu--uhack! Honestly, I'm getting sick of worrying about this Ripple shit!"
SPLATTER!
Despite everything Raymond Parker acquired during his tenure in this supposed, "fictional" world, his greatest asset has always been the knowledge of the future. While he was free to let them form, it ant throwing the "plot" off course, thereby causing him to lose this advantage
His new life as "Rei Sano" could also end up potentially compromised, but after this recent debacle, his patience had nearly reached its limit. For years, he'd spent more ti worrying about the tiline than improving his abilities...which got him into his fair share of trouble and grief
TING!
"Uh?!" {Oh, that's just perfect!}
Unfortunately, his troubles were nowhere near over...
{How many? 1, 2 , 3...10, 11 chakra signatures?! That's an odd number, and why are they headed in my direction?!}
ZWISH!
His rest would have to wait, for new enemies were hot on his trail!
Rei took off at full speed, knowing he had no ti to think about the situation. Being outnumbered and weakened, this was not a fight he could win in his current state
Left, Right, Left, Right...his feet kept moving! Despite his legs feeling like jelly, they continued to push off the ground, carrying him forward! A normal human would've collapsed from total exhaustion at this point
FLING! BOOSH!
"?!" (Rei)
Annoyed with chasing him, the enemy teams began launching a series of long-ranged attacks. Blades and ninjutsu, all launched at the Genin from Kumogakure, who continued to weave and dodge everything thrown at him! But even mountains fall overti, and Rei's stamina wasn't getting any better. His speed started to drop, and the gap between them shortened until he eventually tripped and fell to the ground
"D-Damn it... this isn't good!" (Rei)
"Didn't expect to run into you so soon! You're not looking so good, Kumo bastard!"
{These guys...they're from Agakure1Hidden Rain Village, Kusagakure2Hidden Grass Village, and...so smaller villages I don't recognize. None of them are from the "Big 5"} "Who the hell are gu-Ooof!" (Rei)
BAM!
At Rei's confused attitude, a tall male wearing a headband indicating his allegiance to Agakure stepped forward. Appearing to be the one leading the group, he proceeded to kick an already downed Rei in the stomach, sending him tumbling away. The others giggled and laughed in amusent, and satisfaction
"Don't pretend you don't know what you did! There's probably not a single person in this damn canyon who hasn't heard about so Kumogakure ninja randomly brutalizing every squad in sight!"
"?!" (Rei)
"There was only one squad from your treacherous village that arrived in this exam, everyone knows about it. The perpetrator was male, traveling alone, and wore his headband on his neck as opposed to the forehead..."
"The most recent attacks were around this area, don't pretend it wasn't you!"
"Son of a bitch, my brother was one of your victims! Forget the exams, I don't even know if he'll be able to continue as a ninja!"
{F**k! How much damage did I do?! How long was I out?!} (Rei)
Yells and screams of anger reverberated from the mix-matched group, all calling for retribution! Genin from villages who should be against each other in this exam, had banded together into a single unit, through a bond of hatred...for the sole purpose of hunting down Rei
BAM!
Kicking Rei away again, the one in charge raised his had to silence them. He then addressed the crowd in a self-grandiose manner
"We, who hail from the smaller villages, have all suffered by you arrogant ones of the so-called, Greater nations. This kind of arrogance is just what we should all expect from a ninja like him, who hails straight out of the five!"
CLAMOR!
The others began shouting in agreent as this Genin addressed them
{Great. Now I have to listen to so cliché monologue from a background character, soone please kill
now. Who knows, maybe that's how I finally get out of this stupid manga...} (Rei)
Despite everything, Rei was only concerned with himself and how he could escape this current predicant. Subtly scoping out the area with his eyes to see if there was anything he could use. His chakra was nearly depleted, all of the running used up all the energy he received from his battle with Kabuto's teammate, Yoroi
The A-nin removed a kunai from the holster on his leg before holding it to Rei's neck. The latter disgusted with the twisted look of glee practically shining on his face
"You don't get to die an easy death. You're going to be the first to help us in this exam, that is... helping us send a ssage to the bigger nations! The ssage being, we're no longer putting up with your unjust dominance anymore"
"Pfft!" (Rei)
"?!"
"HAHAHAHA!!" (Rei)
Expecting him to tremble in fear or plead for rcy, everyone was thrown off when Rei suddenly burst out laughing. Attitude, deanor, and even his expression indicated he couldn't care less about their feelings. Which he blatantly reiterated after telling them the truth straight from his mouth. Going on about how...
He didn't care about their grudges...
He didn't care about their dreams...
He didn't care about their villages...
He didn't care about their past or future...
He didn't care about their families or friends...
He didn't even care about their very existence...
And as for why?
"Because you lot aren't people. Hell, you're not even characters! You're just f**king mobs! Background images! I shouldn't care, I won't care, I don't care! The mission, MY mission, should be the only thing that matters! AND YET!" (Rei)
"?!"
TAK! CLING!
The Genin from Agakure was caught off guard when Rei grabbed the hand holding the kunai and pulled it closer to his neck!
"W-What are you-?!"
"WHY? Why do I feel concern, if not outright guilt for so of the things I've done while I was out for the--cheh! YOU! How many days are left in this exam?! How much ti?!" Rei scread as he pointed to another in the crowd
"U-Umm...about twenty one hours?" The Genin timidly replied
"Right, over four days of God knows what acts of cruelty I've committed! I shouldn't concern myself with an exam where ninja are EXPECTED to try and kill one another! I definitely shouldn't let that bother , and yet, I'm feeling SYMPATHY?!?! TOWARDS ALL THOSE SCRUBS?! WHAT THE F**K?!" (Rei)
Rei was on a complete rant as he used his one free hand to clasp his head in confusion. Whether it was the situation, poison, stress, or irritation at the A Genin's monologuing... he was having a complete ltdown!
"And YOU guys! You stand here bitching about being stepped on, but don't act like you've never done the sa! How many other villages did you have to abuse or destroy until yours were ford! Everything has to be built on sothing, especially shinobi villages! You're nothing but a bunch of whiners who can't even find the balls to take on an actual team! Seriously, eleven vs one?! F**K OFF!" (Rei)
"!"
In that mont, everyone simultaneously forgot their anger, remaining flabbergasted in silence as Rei continued his self-discovering rant...
"Have I actually co to care about this crappy world...bullshit! As if! So please, before I turn into a total sap, or get brain cancer from another one of this idiot's shitty, hypocritical speeches...just end it for ! Because death would be a rcy at this point! As for anything else, my response is, I JUST DON'T GIVE A F**K...in case you had any doubts" (Rei)
VWOOOOO...
"..." (Everyone)
"..." (Rei)
Aside from the wind, the only sound heard was the thudding of Rei, who willingly fell on his back. Arms spread wide open, not showing any signs of resistance as he gestured for them to hurry up and do what they ca here to do
While everyone else showed hesitancy, the leader of the group tightened his grip on the blade in his hand. In truth, he was actually afraid of the ninja hailing from the "Five Great Shinobi Nations
