Thank you. Now, let us get back to the story!!

"By the way, I'm curious how you used a kunai to blind one of his eyes? Though that guy wasn't much, he was still a genuine chunin. No matter how careless, he shouldn't have been injured by a child like you to this extent."
Mikawa suddenly looked towards Aoha and asked.
Aoha's heart first skipped a beat, then, pretending to recall with effort, he spoke: "I'm not too clear either. I was just curled on the ground getting beaten the whole time, but because of my body's special properties, I protected my vitals. Then, when he bent down, I fought back with all my strength."
"I remember my first counterattack; he immediately dodged. But he didn't seem to notice the kunai gripped in my left hand. That's how I managed to stab out one of his eyes."
The [Kunai-Desert Eagle] had long been retrieved into the system space. Plus, with the dead unable to testify, Aoha fabricated this ninety per cent true, ten per cent false explanation. After all, nobody could expose him.
After hearing this answer, Mikawa always felt something seemed off, yet also found it reasonable.
After all, when people became arrogant and conceited, being unable to react in time was possible. Moreover, this brat had many tricks, even knowing how to endure before suddenly erupting to injure people.
Truly good ninja material!
As for where the kunai in his hand came from...
When Mikawa arrived in time, he'd seen several kunai stuck in the ground. From the force, undoubtedly thrown by that Uchiha Kan. Seizing the chaos to pick one up and hide it wasn't impossible either.
Mikawa instinctively filled in the loopholes in Aoha's explanation. So arrogance wasn't scary. Self-rationalisation was scary!
"This time, you got lucky. I happened to be nearby. Otherwise, your ashes could already be scattered in the river. Just calmed down a few days, yet you caused such huge trouble, even provoking the troublesome Uchiha clan. Could you be possessed by a jinx?"
Mikawa said irritably.
"How was I supposed to know that guy would be so arrogant and domineering, launching sneak attacks from behind? Besides, I didn't do anything! This was purely an undeserved calamity!" Aoha complained on his own behalf, feeling especially aggrieved.
He truly never imagined the other would dare use lethal force. Of course, his insistence on courting death and provoking the other had some relationship, but he definitely wouldn't admit this point.
Mikawa likewise knew this incident truly didn't blame Aoha, but what else could he say?
"Regardless of whether it's an undeserved calamity, in any case, from now on try staying far away from the Uchiha clan people. During this period before starting school, behave yourself. Endure what you can endure. Heard me?"
After finishing, Mikawa only felt his heart exhausted.
Obviously, just a nominal guardian, why did he worry so much?
Meanwhile, Aoha knew Mikawa-jonin genuinely cared for him, even risking offending the Uchiha clan. He'd already remembered this kindness in his heart. Sooner or later, there'd be chances to repay it.
Moreover, this feeling of being cared for, honestly speaking, felt quite nice.
So Aoha rarely didn't argue, nodding to indicate he understood and wouldn't go out causing trouble again. Probably.
Who told him a damn system constantly wanting him to court death still lived inside his body!
"I'm leaving. Hokage-sama's side still awaits my mission report. The compensation money the Uchiha provided, I'll keep it with me first. When your injuries heal and you're discharged, I'll give it to you."
Though speaking still cold and expressionless, Aoha could hear the concern within.
Moreover, a full one hundred thousand ryo!
With this money, not only did he temporarily not need to worry about food and clothing, but he could also take out a portion to purchase medicinal ingredients, polishing his foundation.
In short, this death-courting bet, he won again!
After Mikawa left, only Aoha remained in the hospital room.
He immediately sank his consciousness into the system. This time, he nearly lost his life to complete the mission. Hadn't yet claimed the rewards!
Then, as soon as he opened the damn system, he saw a string of notifications.
[Mission Completion Rating: Medium]
[Rewards appropriately enhanced]
[Issued Mission Rewards: Bronze Treasure Chest X1, Beginner Skill Card X3]
"Blinded a chunin's eye, nearly crippled one of his hands, yet completion rating is only medium? This damn system's requirements are too high!"
Aoha couldn't help complaining, but his body honestly opened the bronze treasure chest.
[Opening Bronze Treasure Chest, obtained Taijutsu Training Technique: Hakuda]
Instantly, massive amounts of combat technique knowledge fused into his mind, and another line of text appeared on his 'tombstone,' showing [Hakuda] LV0.
After Aoha absorbed this knowledge, he immediately thought of this [Hakuda]. Wasn't this precisely the 'Fist' among 'Sword, Fist, Movement, Demon Arts' from the Bleach world?
"Sword" meant swordsmanship, "Fist" meant Hakuda, "Movement" meant Shunpo, and "Demon Arts" meant Kido.
Though [Hakuda] in the Bleach world wasn't as famous as the other three arts, cultivating to profound depths would have qualitative leaps, such as the combat technique fusing with "Kido": Shunko!
Though Aoha didn't know Kido, because of the damn system's existence, his growth had unlimited possibilities.
Moreover, even setting aside Shunko, [Hakuda] was an invaluable combat technique.
For him, who is currently extremely lacking in enemy confrontation methods, this was like sending coal in snowy weather, perfectly allowing him to simultaneously polish his body while learning taijutsu.
However, when training [Hakuda], he couldn't be so open about it. Otherwise, he truly couldn't explain clearly.
Then came the Beginner Skill Cards received after the reward enhancement.
These Beginner Skill Cards could at most upgrade abilities to LV3, so which ability to use them on required careful consideration.
If improving life-preservation abilities, then undoubtedly first upgrading [Hardening] to level three was most cost-effective. But with his current stamina, even if [Hardening] was upgraded to LV3, he couldn't fully utilise it.
As for [Thorn Halo], honestly speaking, for his current self, it was really too lacklustre. Upgrading was completely unnecessary. This undoubtedly was a late-game ability that could only fully function after health and defence stacked up.
Then, only remained [Inferior Self-Healing Body] and newly obtained [Hakuda] remained for choosing between the two.
After carefully thinking, Aoha opened one of the abilities.
