One month had passed since Jiryoku achieved the rank of Genin, and during this time, they successfully completed a total of eight missions. Among these missions were five C-Level and three B-Level assignments. The members of the Hyuga clan conducted a thorough investigation to assess Jiryoku's capabilities, and the results were as follows:

Name: Jiryoku

Abilities: Master Swordsman, Proficient in the Three-Body Technique, No ninjutsu employed thus far

Strength: Equivalent to an Elite Chunin

After careful consideration, the Hyuga elder concluded that the time had come to take action. Addressing Iroha and the others, he ordered, "Today, we shall dispatch someone to offer a substantial bounty for Jiryoku, enough to attract the attention of elite Jonin. You will undertake a mission to escort him to the River Country. Remember, he must not return alive."

"Yes!" everyone responded in unison, acknowledging their orders.

.....

Two days later.

Iroha approached Jiryoku's door and encountered him there. He delivered the news, saying, "We have accepted an A-Level mission to escort a team to the River Country. Be prepared, as we will depart tomorrow morning without delay."

Jiryoku nodded, acknowledging Iroha's words, and after relaying the message, he departed. Later that night, there was a knock on Jiryoku's door, and he was surprised to find Ino's father standing there.

"Mr. Inoichi, why are you here at such a late hour?" Jiryoku inquired, his confusion evident.

Inoichi replied, "I have come to inform you that a bounty of 15 million has been placed on your head. I strongly advise you to reconsider your plans of leaving the village for the time being."

Upon hearing Inoichi's warning, Jiryoku nodded and replied, "I appreciate your concern, but as you mentioned, the bounty on my head will remain until someone removes it. I doubt that will happen, and I can't let fear confine me to the village forever."

Understanding Jiryoku's perspective, Inoichi nodded and said, "In that case, all I can say is take care of yourself." With those parting words, he left.

The following morning, Jiryoku made his way to the designated meeting place where the caravan was set to depart. Iroha and the rest of his team were already present. Utilizing his keen Observation Haki, Jiryoku sensed the presence of five individuals within the caravan, each possessing the strength of at least a Chunin. "It appears that the Hyuga clan has finally resolved to eliminate me," he thought to himself.

However, Jiryoku remained composed and unaffected by the situation, knowing that he had nothing to fear. He maintained his calm demeanor, determined to face whatever challenges lay ahead.

Following their departure, Iroha took charge and instructed the team to proceed towards the River Country. After a full day of traveling, they arrived at the borders of the country. It was then that Iroha approached Jiryoku with a new assignment.

"Jiryoku, I want you to head to the nearest village and gather information. Your blindness will work to our advantage, as no one will suspect you. Investigate the area and ensure that everything is safe," Iroha commanded, assigning Jiryoku a crucial task.

Upon hearing Iroha's instructions, Jiryoku nodded in understanding and headed off in the direction indicated by Iroha. He ventured out, following his senses despite his blindness, determined to fulfill the mission entrusted to him.

As Jiryoku distanced himself from the group, Iroha turned to one of his subordinates and inquired, "Has the task been completed?" The subordinate responded affirmatively, saying, "Yes, we have spread the news in the black market that Jiryoku can be found in the nearest village from here."

Their plan set in motion, the group awaited the outcome, relying on the information they had strategically disseminated.

...…

As Jiryoku approached the village, utilizing his keen Observation Haki, he discerned the presence of approximately 30 ninjas who caught his attention. Among them, he identified six formidable Jonins, while the remaining individuals were skilled Chunins. Though there were additional ninjas in the vicinity, they were of Genin level, considered inconsequential and no match for him.

Fearlessly, Jiryoku entered the village, maintaining a careful vigilance, fully aware of the potential abilities possessed by any of the ninjas present. He remained alert, ready to confront any potential threats or unexpected capabilities that might arise.

While Jiryoku walked, a sudden figure materialized behind him, launching an attack aimed at his back. A sharp Kunai blade approached, coming within two inches of Jiryoku's body. However, to the assailant's bewilderment, their weapon abruptly halted in its trajectory, unable to advance any further. Sensing the confusion, Jiryoku wasted no time in providing an explanation. Instead, he swiftly executed a swift and deadly strike with his sword, swiftly killing his attacker with a single slash.

Jiryoku swiftly shifted his attention to his left side, where a group of 14 ninjas had gathered, representing the maximum number of opponents standing against him. Firmly grasping his sword, he channeled his skill, unleashing the devastating technique known as "Gravity Blade - Stardust." With a sweeping motion, he sliced through the air, generating a mighty shockwave imbued with an immense gravitational force.

The shockwave surged forward, obliterating structures and engulfing the area in destructive chaos. The overwhelming power of the technique resulted in the demise of most of the ninjas, their lives extinguished amid the catastrophic onslaught. The battlefield now bore the scars of Jiryoku's unstoppable might.
