At same time

Jun felt as if his whole body was breaking down to pieces. At the point where he thought he could take it no more, a gentle cool feeling spread out from the depths of his core . The feeling spread throughout his battered body, like a rain soothes barren land. After a while he felt a weird layer type feeling covering his body, irritating him. Finally after a while when the soothing feeling subsided, he felt a dense chakra rus.h.i.+ng throughout his body. Flexing his muscles slightly he sent out a wave of chakra from chakra points all over his body. Chakra flowed amazingly quick and smooth, the resulting chakra wave blasted apart the black layer covering him and revealed vibrant skin beneath, rippling with lean muscles. His hair s.h.i.+ned on his head with silver streaks apart from his previous golden. As soon as he opened his eyes, a soft golden glow flashed for a sec before subsiding back. Jun stretched his neck and limbs, crackling sounds issued out from the now enhanced physique.

[You defeated Rabbit of Caerbannog (Boss)]

[Gained +8000 exp]

[Ninjutsu Scroll 'Inaba Step' received]

[Quest Item - Experimental Weapons Storage Scroll received]

[Level Up!]

Jun took a moment to check his status and a.s.sign the points before letting out a breath and standing up. He looked towards where the mostly destroyed corpse of the boss monster lay. He went and crushed it with a stomp.

'd.a.m.ned rabbit, good riddance. I am never going to be able to look at rabbits as cute beings from now on' Jun scowled at the place where boss monsters fragments now lay before turning to go back where he sensed Itachi standing. At that moment however , a reddish orange radiance flashed behind him. He turned to see reddish orange particles gathering to form a small ping pong sized ball like thing.

--------------

When Itachi saw the reddish orange small sphere like object forming , he was struck with a slight current of fear . He flickered towards Jun and arrived beside him in a few moments. No words were necessary as they both got into combat mode. Jun had lost his whip sword in the lightning blast, so he was just armed with his chakra blade which managed to survive. Itachi on the other hand was armed with both his Kodachi and chakra blade.

At this point the System decided to interfere.

[Chakra ma.s.s detected. Checking for traces of will … Confirmed. Nine Tail chakra identified. Chances of individual being formation …. 0.016%.]

[Conclusion: Detached Nine Tail Chakra Trace infecting Rabbit of Caerbannog resulting in its mutation and unusual strength. Would User like to convert this chakra to Chakra Crystal?]

'Chakra Crystal? What are its benefits?'

[As of now nothing. If you let it go free then some other chakra mutated animal will be affected by this and may grow into an ent.i.ty like the boss monster. Even though the amount of chakra in very small, its still Nine Tail chakra, Quality trumps Quant.i.ty. Its recommended that you gather it into a Chakra Crystal . Ifyou get a chance then visit other training ground dungeons too. There is a high chance of encountering similar creatures there.]

'You are just asking me to be a hero without benefits aren't you ?'

[You already got the benefits didn't you ? You got an original Ninjutsu Technique of the Rabbit of Caerbannog never before seen in the original anime. You got a ton of experience enough to level up. Not to mention the accidental good fortune that struck you. Also you advanced your bloodline by quite a bit. What more do you want?]

'Well you are right. Ok , do it.'

[I don't have to do anything . You are the one that is going to do it. Attract Nature energy and mix it with Your and Nine Tail's chakra until a balance is reached. Then change its form to a crystalline structure. Beware though, you might attract a few stray monsters during this process.]

Jun extended his hand in front of the ball of Nine Tail chakra while asking Itachi to be alert and watch over him. Itachi just gave a nod before activating his Sharingan. Jun slowly but steadily followed System's Instructions, sending small traces of Nature Energy and His chakra in the ball while trying not to let Nine Tail chakra go berserk. During that he was surprised to see his chakra green in color and at least 5 times denser than before. His new chakra calmed Nine Tail and Nature chakra instantly , acting as a medium for them to mix easily. Itachi was standing on the ready in case the monsters came but with the added calming effect of Jun's chakra, the Nine Tail chakra quietly merged with Nature Energy without attaracting attention of wild monsters. After half an hour, Jun finally managed to condense the Nine Tail chakra into a small , round and incredibly smooth gem like object.

Jun activated Observe on the gem like crystal and got the result of what he had helped create.

[Nine Tail Chakra Crystal (Refined)

Contains traces of Nine Tail's Chakra

Chakra Point Equivalent : 3000 CP

Renewable Chakra when inserted with Nature Energy.]

'd.a.m.n. Its Normal chakra level is around half of my normal capacity without the additional Yin - Yang chakra vessel. Just what kind of a monster is the Nine tails to have that much chakra in just a miniscule trace left behind.'

[As I said, its about quality not quant.i.ty. Nine tails has the most potent chakra among all the Tailed beasts. The potency of its Chakra is is only surpa.s.sed by The Natural Earthen and Dragon veins of the planet, according to what has been revealed as far in the original anime. Because of its dense nature the equivalence of one trace Nine tail chakra is many times that of a regular s.h.i.+n.o.bi.]
