Chapter 106

"What did you expect to happen, Sasori?" Eiji asked, biting his rations. He'd been eating ever since his fight with Kakuzu ended and for good reason. His body needed sustenance and matter to regenerate. So, he was giving it exactly that. His wound may have closed, but World Ender was still working on his insides. Right at that moment, he could barely function and that was mainly due to chakra and senjutsu shenanigans rather than because of his own body.

Eiji was sure that if he were back in his original world he'd be very much agonizing. Then again, back there Kakuzu's attack would have killed him. Although, it wouldn't have been possible at all...

"Pull yourself together, Eiji," Hachi told him softly, making Eiji shake his head.

"No answer, huh?" He said, focusing his attention on the container that housed the remaining humanity of Sasori of the Red Sand. Tracking him had been a bit of a hassle, what with him switching puppets to try and get away. It hadn't been that bad though. Now with time to get Senjutsu going, that alone would have made the search easy. Not to mention...

"He's a bit dumb, right?" Shirakumo asked curiously from his shoulder and he saw a few of the hunter spiders around twitch in response. "Why put himself... there? Like that?" The spider princess added.

"Because... Yeah, he was dumb," Eiji ultimately agreed. He could have explained all the stuff behind that, but really... he couldn't care less at the moment. So, he left it at that. No need to give depth to such a thing, he supposed. There was also the fact that he was very annoyed with Sasori. "At least this mission is definitely over," He mused out loud with a weary sigh.

'Okay then,' He thought, unable to even feel happy with the screen. He just wanted to... Eiji sighed, deciding to get on with it and check everything. He was likely to forget if he left it for later, considering how scrambled his mind felt.

[Bloodhound

'All stats instead of just Dexterity, huh? That's interesting.'

[Resilience (Intermediate)

The user recovers from injuries moderately faster than normal.]

'It... What happened here? Uh, I think it wasn't Intermediate before?' He wondered for a moment. It'd been a while since he'd given the skill much thought. Especially since its effect was just passive and always there. It didn't require much consideration from his part, really.
