Releasing harsh breaths, Kazuo woke up with his back drenched in sweat, the broken bed creaking underneath him.
Looking around quickly, he remembered that he was back inside the leaf village.
Using one hand to clean off the sweat that had covered his forehead, Kazuo got up whilst releasing a sigh.
No thoughts passed through his head as he headed to the small kitchen on the left side of the apartment, opened the fridge, and found nothing besides rotten food with so many cockroaches that Kazuo wondered if they had made a nest inside the fridge.
'Fucking hell, what a great way to start the day.' Kazuo thought as he released a long sigh and headed to the door, he had quite a lot to do for these two weeks.
His plans were to train until he completely mastered water walking, bringing his chakra control to higher levels which would help in maintaining his reserves in combat.
He would also be training every other technique at his disposal until they reached the highest degree of mastery, this wouldn't be that hard considering he had the time loop.
Most important however was the fact that he had to increase his physical stats, to do that he needed a good diet as well as a set of weights that he could wear constantly during the two weeks.
His physical stats couldn't be trained using the time loop, so they had become a point of weakness to Kazuo.
Once outside of the apartment, Kazuo used the body flicker jutsu to quickly arrive at the Hokage tower, inside of which was a special office where ninjas could get their monthly paycheck.
With him having become a Chunnin, his pay would be much higher than it had been as a Gennin.
"Im here to receive my monthly pay," Kazuo said as he stood in front of a wooden oak counter, behind which an old woman stood.
"Could I get your ninja ID please?" The woman asked as she extended her hand and Kazuo didn't dally at all as he extended the small card toward the woman.
Thankfully he had stored it inside his wrist guards otherwise he would have had to go through the process of acquiring another one, lowering the time he had to train even further.
"Everything checks out, this is your monthly pay as a Chunnin." The woman said as she gave him back his ninja ID as well as a small brown bag.
Kazuo nodded before putting the ninja ID back in his ninja bag and tying the small brown bag to his waist, after which he headed outside and used the body flicker to directly head toward the shopping district of Konoha.
The streets were made of dirt with wooden buildings all around, a complete contrast to the asphalt and concrete that Kazuo was used to back in his old world.
Hundreds of villagers passed through the street, creating the image of a bustling and well-off village, the faces and expressions of these people were soft, some even had calm and happy expressions as they went about their day.
Standing still, Kazuo looked at them for a moment before releasing a light chuckle and heading toward what looked like a ninja shop, considering the sign on top of it was a kunai and a shuriken.
Heading inside, he quickly found that he was quite wrong, the shop was a noodle shop, turning around Kazuo tried a few more stores before finding what he was looking for.
Once inside, Kazuo found hundreds of different weapons, be it kunai, shuriken, senbon needles, ninja thread, and even giant Fuma Shuriken.
"Welcome to our small shop, what might I help you with today kid?" An old man with a large beard that almost went down to his waist said from behind a wooden counter.
"I was looking for some training weights, do you have any?" Kazuo asked as he looked at the man who nodded his head almost immediately.
"We do, I'll bring out the types we have in just a moment." The old man said as he turned around and headed into another room behind the counter, coming back a minute or so later whilst holding three items in his hands.
Putting them on the counter, he pointed to each item and gave a short description.
"We have three different types of weights." The old man said before pointing to the one on the far left.
"These ones are the cheapest but they do the job, they have physical weights placed inside of them so their limit is only at one hundred kilograms." The man said before pointing to the next item.
"These ones are seal-based weights, they can increase and decrease the weight based on a certain mechanism though I don't understand clearly how they are made, what I do know is that they can go up to three hundred kilograms." The man said before turning his hand to the last item on the counter.
'Those look like the seals that Rock Lee used to use.' Kazuo thought as he stared at the familiar-looking weights.
"These are the best ones we've got, they are also seal-based however they can go up to one ton in weight." The man said before giving Kazuo a price for each item.
"I'll take the cheapest ones, im quite short on money for now uncle," Kazuo said as he gave the man a smile and pointed to the cheapest non-seal-based weights.
"All right, I'll prepare them for you right away." The old man said with a smile, as he removed the two other seal-based weights quickly grabbed what looked like a bag, and placed the physical weights inside together with sixteen iron rods.
"Here, two ankle weights and two wrist weights. I also placed all the different weight rods inside, they're included for the same price." The man said and Kazuo quickly handed over the money, took the bag, and headed outside.
'This is fucking heavy' Kazuo thought as he used both hands to hold the bag that weighed one hundred kilograms.
Once outside of the shop, Kazuo quickly used the bodyflicker, his next destination was a place called Yakiniku-Q, a famous place for barbeque which would be the source of his food for the next two weeks.
