  "I see. So that's how it is… If he dies, then…" Hiruzen massaged the bridge of his nose as his mihrough the situation.

  "Yes. Not only will the minister be furious but La will also be very unhappy. Until the culprit is found, there will be some chaos." Yondu khe temperament of the Fire Lord better than most. If the matter is not resolved soon harsh as will be taken that could cause problems for everyone.

  'The first thing to do is save Leorio's life. And the only people who could do that are Tsunade and Daichi. And sisunade is o be found I have no choice but to send Daichi. But with all the threats eyeing him, I 't send him alone… I 't recall Kakashi. He is in the middle of his delicate training. I'll have to assign someone else…'

  Hiruzehat sending Daichi alone was not an option no matter how strong the boy was. At that moment an idea suddenly sparked in his head. 'Hmm, that will work. If they work together then a couple of my problems will be solved.'

  At that moment the Kage sehe presence of the Genin outside his office.

  —-

  Daichi reached the Hokage's offid was quickly let in.

  "Lord Hokage." He greeted the leader of the vilge and then g the other perso in the room.

  "Daichi. This is Yondu. He is a member of the Fire Daimyo's Royal court." Hiruzen introduced the man to the Genin.

  Daichi immediately used 'Observe' skill on the man and made an analysis of the person. 'Level 68. 47 years old. His agility and stamina are high for his level but other than that all his stats seem normal… A messenger and close personal friend of the Daimyo. Unmarried. Smart and capable of fighting even Jonin level ninjas.'

  It only took a few seds for Daichi to have a rough uanding and measure of Yondu's background, strength and abilities.

  "It is an honor to meet you sir." He gave a short bow and greeted the elder man.

  "There is a matter of grave importahat requires your attention at the Capital." Hiruzen spoke, drawing Daichi's attention. "This will be a B Rank mission and you are to leave for the Capital immediately."

  'A B Rank? This is indeed serious.' The boy nodded and stood in attention. "Will Kakashi sensei be ing?"

  The Hokage shook his head indig the absence of the Sharingan ninja. "Kakashi will be unavaible but Genma here will join you."

  At that moment the Hokage's Elite Guard and Special Jonin Genma Shiranui appeared. "Hey."

  Daichi immediately used the Observe skill again on the arget.

  The young gamer quickly read the information his system showed. 'Hmm… Genma Shiranui. There wasn't much about him in other than the small bits shown… I guess I'll know more about him during this mission.'

  "You will be w under Genma for the duration of this mission." Hiruzen reyed his message.

  At that moment the sed Quest appeared in front of the boy.

  [Accept Y/N]

  'Another Quest? Looks like this will be a tricky mission…'

  Having absolute faith in his medical skills, Daichi mentally accepted the quest.

  [You have accepted the 1st quest.]

  The Hokage spoke at that moment. "Sihis is a time sensitive issue, Yondu will expiails of the mission to you on the way."

  Daiodded and soon Genma, Yondu and Daichi were on their way to the Capital.

  —-

  It was evening around 6pm. Three people swiftly moved through the forest in the Fire try and were making their way to the Capital.

  "Daichi, you've spent some time in the capital. What do you know about the 3rd Minister?" Yondu asked the boy as he jumped to aree.

  'Hmm…' Daichi recalled the information he read and quickly replied. "The 3rd Minister is Lord Taji Mayima. He is in charge of public retions and overseeing the various businesses in the Capital and surrounding towns."

  "Yes. There are three ministers overseeing various aspects of the gover in Fire try and Lord Taji Mayima is a very important person. So this must be solved quickly. And moreover an attack against his family is sidered an attack against the Daimyo itself."

  The Genin nodded his head as heard that. "I uand the seriousness of the situation. you tell me more about the minister? You said his nephew lives with him? What about his parents?"

  Yondu was silent for a few moments and just when Daichi thought he wouldn't answer Yondu spoke. "Lord Taji and his wife Fuyi had a son. And Lord Taji had a twin brother named Genji. Genji also had a son named Leorio Mayima. Both Leorio and Lord Taji's son were around the same age. Many years ago he lost his son, his brother and sister in w in an unfortunate act. Lord Taji and Fuyi lost their son and Leorio, his parents."

  "The third Minister adopted and raised the boy, didn't he?" Genma said as it was easy to draw that clusion from the events.

  Yondu nodded his head. "Yes. It took a long time but they were able to heal and move past the tragedy. But now… If Lord Taji loses Leorio as well…"

  "I will do everything in power to not let that happen."

  Yondu looked at the Genin's serious expression and nodded. 'If there is anyone who save him and avert a crisis, it's you.'

  "Please tell me everything that's happeo Leorio." Daichi wao know as muformation as he could to prepare and have an idea as to what he was walking into.

  Yondu recalled the memories and began. "Everything was fierday when Leorio went to bed. He was healthy without any problems. But early this m the guard outside his room started hearing loud coughs and painful shouts. He burst into the room and saw Leorio sweating heavily, breathing hard and clutg his chest in pain. The family medics did a thh examination and couldn't find what's wrong with him and he was soht to the hospital."

  "I see… I'm guessing Dr. Karuizawa examined his dition."

  "Indeed. He along with several petent other medics ran all sorts of tests… But none of them could find the cause of his illness let alone a cure. What they did find is that he oisoned and how much time he has left before death. The medics said that based on the speed of his aeriorating funs he has… only a few hours from now…"

  "Have you caught the person who poisoned him?"

  The messenger from the Capital shook his head to Genma's question. "An iigation is underway but nothing at the moment. At least, I haven't heard anything before I left. And the guards statio Lord Taji's mansion didn't sense any intruders."

  It became quiet and Daichi took another look at the new quest. 'It says stabilize his dition and prolong his life. Not cure or save him… That's strange… Does that mean saving his life is impossible or will it e in another quest? Hmm… I'll only be able to know more after I examihe guy…. This brings another question that's been on my mind for some time… Does the system know the future and my future as? Is My Gamer system se?'

  Daichi recalled the system message that appeared when he first woke up in this world.

  [Memories of the previous life of your soul which were locked have now been unlocked. Memories of your current life and your unlocked ones are being merged…. Merging plete. Good luck, Pyer.

  System Administrator ]

  'System Administrator… Till a few years ago I thought it was from some deity who sent my soul here. But now… Is there someone who is trolling the system?'

  An unfortable and somewhat frightening thought came to Daichi's mind. 'Am I someone's puppet?'

  Daichi took a few deep breaths of air and calmed his heart. 'I will have to look into this. But for now… Just o focus on being stronger.'

  "Are you alright Daichi? You look a little pale."

  The Jonin Genma's voice brought Daichi out of his thoughts.

  "I'm fine. Just thinking about the many possibilities of our as…" Genma raised an eyebrow hearing the vague reply.

  At that moment Daichi received a new system message.

  [Quest 'Wipe out the Invasive Species' pleted.]

  [Rewards]

  8000 Exp.

  1200 Exp.

  [Reputation increases with Team Guy and The Hokage.]

  [Reputation increases with people of the Leaf Vilge.]

  'So Guy must have submitted the missio. Good. Only 6168 exp to the level.'

  In a better mood than before, Daichi made his way to his destination.

  The three people were moving much faster than even ordinary ninjas. Yondu expected the fast pace from the Jonin apanying him but Daichi keeping up without showing any strain was a surprise to the man.

  'So his stamina and speed are also above normal. A very talented child indeed.' Yondu thought as they were getting closer to the Fire Capital city.

  —-

  The three people soon made it to the hospital and Dr. Karuizawa greeted them. He was about t them to where Leorio was situated but at that moment several people came forward. Two in particur had their focus on Daichi.

  The young Genin immediately used 'Observe' and found out who they were. 'The 3rd Minister and his wife. And the rest are his personal guards.'

  Lord Taji Mayima, the 3rd Minister of the Fire Capital looked at the messenger of the Royal court. "Thank you fing him so quickly Yondu."

  "Of course Lord Taji." The man bowed and replied. He then turo Daichi and Genma and introduced them. "This is Lord Taji Mayima the 3rd Minister of his Capital and his wife Fuyi Mayima."

  Taji had a somber expression while his wife silently looked at the Genin.

  "I have heard a lot about you, Daichi Hekima. Your medical skills are almost equal to those of Lady Tsunade. You're our st ce. I put my faith in you?" The minister looked at the boy with hope in his eyes.

  Daichi was silent for a few seds and then replied in a careful tone. "I will do my best. But five me Lord Taji, I ot say anything more until I see my patient."

  The minister nodded in uanding and stepped aside. Karuizawa led them deeper into the hospital building. Daichi and Genma passed by many Guards who were wearing Imperial armor.

  'Just as I expected. Sihey don't know if the poison is tagious or not, they're keeping him in an isotion chamber.' Daichi thought as he looked around.

  Dr. Karuizawa gave Daichi a detailed file and spoke. "This is everything we have found about his dition." Daichi quickly went through the pages and itted all the information to memory.

  He reached the room where the nephew was bei. "I'll take it from here. I'll go in alone and examine him." Having said his piece the Genin medija quickly put on the Hazmat suit aered the room.

  He saw a man in his twenties unscious on the medical bed, breathing through a tube with several wires ected to him that were monit his vitals.

  'Alright, let's see what I got.'

  Author's Note;

  Daichi isn't anyone's puppet. The ao the system will only appear he end of the story.
