7 3rd Simulation - Part 3
Just that small passage gave Hiroshi a lot of information, while it was a godly technique for escape, there was a massive drawback associated with it. Just the decrease of Physique stat by one was a massive hamper to his development, just two days ago he used 250 Simulation points to upgrade his Physique from D- to D. Now just by using this technique once to change his body structure and face would lead to a decrease in the stat and a loss of points. Not only that the technique manipulates both the bone structure and muscle mass of the body which would lead to a direct decrease in fighting ability unless his coordination is very high.
'Still, if I could use this technique to escape and change my identity, I should be able to stay alive longer in the simulation world, and then if I keep my head down and not cause any trouble maybe I would be able to permanently get the Golden trait...'
There was just one dilemma in his mind, when should he escape, hypothetically if he escapes and his life inside the simulation is extended to 4 years until the start of the Fourth Shinobi World War. Then surely he would be able to gain a lot of strength which in turn would increase the simulation time.
'If I escape now and then the simulation cooldown reaches months then I won't know what would happen, but maybe my skills would increase so much that I would be able to survive? No no, to get these new skills I would have to select the option to just gain new skills gained in this simulation, which means my chakra and stats would be stuck at High-genin and without knowing the future it would be very difficult...' Hiroshi was in a dilemma as he watched the next few days being simulated by the system. He suppressed a stunned expression as the way in which the situation developed changed in a very weird direction.
[Day 9: After performing the {Blood-Bone Transformation Technique} you realize that something was wrong, at first you attributed the discomfort to the fact that you were a little shorter and your body structure was a little different. You switch back to your original appearance to realize that the discomfort had increased and you felt some powerlessness in your limbs. Checking your stats you realize that your {Physique} has dropped to E+ and all your Body related stats are now temporarily suppressed at 20. You search through your status but didn't find anything cooldown related to this suppression]
[Day 11: Ren and others have noticed your weakness and a temporary medic stationed at the outpost diagnosed you with a rare bone cancer, you were advised to return to Konoha for further treatment otherwise your condition might worsen. Tora took responsibility immediately and he sent a messenger eagle back to Konoha for further instructions.]
[Day 13: A missive from Konoha led to your departure from the outpost under the protection of Tora as the rest of your squad stays behind to complete the mission. You know the attack would come soon and try to run away by disguising yourself with the {Blood-Bone Transformation Technique} but the technique fails. Your body could not support the manipulations of the technique and you were knocked out.]
[Day 15: You Died.]

'...' Hiroshi stared at the 5 options in front of him, the dangers of the technique once again apparent as his gaze hovered over the final evaluation of his strength in this simulation.
'My Strength dropped to an academy student's level in the end...' Hiroshi numbly selected the New Skills learned during the Simulation option and watched as the new skills were added to his status.

Each use of this technique damages one's foundation and leaves a lasting mark on their body.]
Manipulate Bone structure, skin tone and muscle mass freely.
Physique drops by 1 for every use
-------------------------------
Hiroshi now got to look at every skill carefully, while everything was as he was expecting, the taijutsu style was surprisingly better than he was expecting, it combined the standard moves of the academy style with some unorthodox moves that would allow him to easily gain an advantage in a close range duel. Except in front of someone from the Hyuga clan as their ability to expel chakra from any and all tenketsu would be its direct counter.
'Not that I was going to fight a Hyuga in close combat anyway...' Hiroshi's mood lightened as the depressing haze disappeared that was in his mind when he lost the opportunity to get a gold rank trait vanished.
'Next time though, I am getting a good trait I am using this skill, otherwise, I don't think I am ever going to use this, no matter how powerful its effect seems...' Hiroshi looked at the skill in contempt before he closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
[Simulation Cooldown - 4:23:59:15]
'Wait what!!!'

AN: See ya tomorrow!!
