Forest of Darkness…

As soon as Kirito arrived above the tree he heard a loud bird cry from behind and the smile on his face is gone for that because of the thing he saw.

"Oh come on not again~!!? " Kirito said when he saw an eagle which wasn't smaller than the tigers he saw back in his home town while training in the forest of death but this thing looks more dangerous as it already flew above his head and already doen picking him with its claw before he reacts as he thought 'Well it isn't also that bad now from the sky I might be able to see the end of the forest and the most shot way for me escape here. '

With that, he stopped the thought of escaping from the bird and stated waiting clamly just started getting cold as he finally noticed something "Where are my clothes and how did I return back to my 5 years old self!?! "

Though he felt really awakened but he had no option but to let go of that thought because he has been flying for quite some time and still he isn't able to see the end of the forest which is quite bad for him as he knew the only way to find the end of the forest is to look from a very high place but even from this high he failed to find the end of the forest when he said out loud "This only means the forest is bigger than I thought, so I have no other way but to use force. "

As he was done making his resolve he forced himself out of the Eagles leg and went on its back with some difficulty because he wasn't able to use any Chakra or tools at the moment. As soon as he got on the Eagles back it turned over in an attempt to make him fall from its back but he knows if he falls from this hight even if is able to make it alive on the ground he will not be able to escape unscathed from it and in his injured state he won't be able to fight with the Chakra beasts below. So tried his best to stay in its back by holding to the feathers just see the Eagle going downwards with a very fast speed then again flying upwards to shake him from its back.

Finally while flying upward for over an hour Kirito is able to see the end at his left or he thought that place looks less green than most sides as he complained with anger "Just how big is this forest??? "

Immediately after asking this question the eagle again started coming toward the forest and when it was near the forest Kirito saw some monkies 3timesbigger than a normal adults size but that wasn't what made him shocked because the next moment he saw countless snakes flowing behind the monkies and devouring them now thing hie big the size of the Snakes are.

After the Monkies were out of the way the Snakes looked at the sky and for some reason, the eagle wasn't able to stop itself and crashed into the forest getting attached by the Snakes in process. Looking at the dangers in front of him Kirito decided to go down because he didn't find that many dangerous animals on the ground and thought he will be able to handle the animal if the number isn't that much.

With that thought in mind, he quickly came down on the ground just to get lost in the darkness and started regretting this decision as he asked himself 'What should I do in a situation like this??? '

After strolling around and getting hit by some trees a couple of times for a while he felt he is surrounded by a lot of animals and when he was about to confirm his doubt he heard Uzumaki Ichizoku saying "I know you want to use your dojutsu to look in the dark or some jutsu but I want to tell you a secret why the Uchiha or Hyuga wasn't the strongest clans even though they possess such Dojutsu do you know why? "

"Yes, Saito sensei told me the reason for them not being the strongest is because of their reliance on their Dojutsu. " Although Kirito didn't know where Ichizoku is talking with him from he replied while being alert from the animals of the forest.

"Yes your sensei is right and now you are also doing the same here and that is you are only focusing on your vision but not on your other senses like which is making you unable to see your surrounding and this will cost you dearly."Ichizoku said to him with a serious tone.

"Bullshit why won't I use my own ability to After all my Dojutsu is also part of my straight so why wouldn't I take full advantage of it? " Kirito said with an annoyed tone because back then Saito also warned him not to relay on the Dojutsu.

"What if for some reason you are not able to use your dojutsu what will you do than? For that kind of time, you should focus on every kind of skills not only one though it is good to master a single ark to the pinnacle it's not wise to rely on a single park. " Ichizoku said like a very knowledgeable man.

"So what do you suggest me to…. " before he could finish his question he felt a burst of air coming towards him as he jumps back but this time he also felt that another big thing might hit him but it was too late and he got thrown away and struck into a tree.

"Roar~"

"Roar~"

"Roar~"

"Roar~"

A lot of Roaring sounds started coming into his ears as he looks in front of him and felt really helpless because there are more than a dozen of shining eyes of Tiger and sometimes that he couldn't recognize so he decided to use gates one more time "Opening 4th Gate: Gate of Pain. "

With that said a green light started coming from his body with immense pain because his body is not strong enough for him to use the 4th gate and now that he is not able to use any Chakra he is in the worst condition than before as he said "I need to train my body more… " with that said he tried to see what is in front of him just to find black and red tiger-like animals in front of him but with the low light he is not sure what they are when he again heard the shout again.

"Quickly stop using the Gates kid or else you will be in more danger than this. " Ichizoku said with an excited tone.

With a nod, Kirito turned of the Gates as he was also planning to do the same and asked "what do you want me to do I can't fight that many Chakra beast with no Chakra. " with a sigh.

"Yes I can also see this but I can't help you even if I want to because this is how the trail is created but I can give advice to you. " Ichizoku said with a sad sigh.

"Well hurry up and tell me what you got for me? " Kirito said while avoiding the tigers depending on the glows in their eyes.

"Ok close your eyes. " Ichizoku said with a neutral tone.

Hearing this Kirito asked with a confused tone "I think I heard you wrong because I thought I heard

you asking me to close my eyes??? " after all, he is looking at the eyes of the tiger to avoid himself from getting attacked by the Tigers.

"No, you heard me correctly and yes I told you to close your eyes. " Ichiraku said with a serious tone.

"But… " Kirito said as he again went flying because of a slap from behind even though he has sent some of the tigers flying behind but still the numbers are too big and the attacks that he caused on them were not enough to harm them enough.

"Just close your eyes? " Ichizoku shouted at him when he struck on a tree again.

"Fine now what??? " Kirito asked while closing his eyes.

"Now flow direction. "Ichizoku said as he started giving him direction and with that, he finally escaped from the chakra beasts.

••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••

After half a day…

Currently, Kirito is sitting on the ground wearing some leaves.

"Good now focus on your surroundings and try to feel everything with your senses. " Ichizoku said in his mind as he still keeping his eyes shut.

"But it is not working. " Kirito complained because he didn't feel anything.

"That's fine just tell me how do you feel right now? " Ichizoku said with a calm tone.

"I feel hungry right now…"
