Konoha: The seal art teacher of the ninja school

"Wait a minute, Natsuhiko, why is there no Senju Hashirama in the Senju Hashirama deck?"

Umino Ikkaku discovered this problem after reading all the cards one by one.

But it clearly says it is the Senju Hashirama deck.

There is also the shadow of the first Hokage behind the deck.

It turns out that the most powerful card in the game is actually only one [Senju Peach Blossom].

"Xia Yan, your game console is broken, come and fix it quickly."

Umino Ikkaku quickly turned to look at Xia Yan.

Xia Yan looked helpless.

If there really was Senju Hashirama inside, that would be a problem.

After all, if the initial deck is given to Senju Hashirama, what else will he sell in the future?

But of course I can't be so straightforward with Teacher Ikkaku.

Natsuhiko pondered slightly, thinking about how to explain this problem to Mr. Ikkaku in this ninja world where there is no wife cake.

It's a pity that Ichiraku Ramen hasn't opened yet...

But the idea of ​​ramen inspired Xia Yan, and he immediately said:

"Teacher Ikkaku, have you ever eaten cup noodles?"

The pictures are for reference only, please refer to the actual product.

Xia Yan also secretly remembered that he would write such a sentence in ultra-small characters in the corner of the picture.

"..."

Umino opened his mouth and found that he couldn't refute.

Since Cup Noodles can be made, why can’t Genin Cards be made?

But what on earth has this child experienced outside, and how could his heart become so dark?

He shook his head sadly and decided to soothe his fragile soul by playing cards.

So Ikkaku suggested:

"Forget it, now that I have got the card set, can I start playing? Xia Yan, how about you play a game with me first?"

Xia Yan smiled reservedly: "Teacher, as the first generation duel king, I don't just duel with others."

"And teacher, you don't even know the rules. I'm afraid you will lose confidence in this game after the game."

Who says I don't understand the rules?

Umino Ikkaku wanted to say this, but it would expose the fact that he spied on students playing cards every day.

So he had nothing to say. He could only watch Xia Yan step forward and touch the interface. Then the cards on it disappeared and a few lines of text appeared.

【Battle Mode】

【Single player mode】

【Edit mode】

【Mall】

【Tutorial】

"Teacher Ikkaku, I recommend that you first finish the tutorial I designed to understand the rules of the game and the effects of the cards, and then start playing against a real person."

"And in this teaching mode, every time you clear a level, you will receive a basic card pack as a reward."

"Card pack?"

Umino Ikkaku, who was originally not very interested in Nao Shizi's tutorial, perked up when he heard that he would give out card packs.

"It's strange, Xia Yan, you actually give away card packs for free? Is there another trick?"

Xia Yan had a few more black lines on his forehead.

"Teacher, do you think I'm some evil businessman?"

"Using gifts to attract customers is a normal business practice."

"And these card packs are to encourage everyone to understand the game through tutorials first, so as to avoid disputes caused by not understanding the rules during the battle."

Of course, what’s more important is that if you don’t experience the thrill of opening packs for free first, how can you spend real money to buy these virtual cards?

Xia Yan added in his heart.

Hearing this, Umino Ikkaku also felt that there was some truth to it, and curiously said:

"Speaking of which, how do you sell the card packs here?"

Xia Yan pointed at a slot on the Jinin game console where coins can be inserted and said: "Put coins into this coin slot, and they will be converted into points in the game, which can be used to buy card packs."

"As for the price, a standard card pack with five cards costs twenty taels."

"Two...twenty taels!!" Umino Ikkaku was shocked, "A bowl of ramen only costs sixty taels, how dare you sell this card pack for twenty taels?"

"Xia Yan, why don't you go and grab it?"

How can you make money quickly by robbing my money printing machine?

Xia Yan complained in his heart, but on the surface he complained: "Teacher, you have not considered the wear and tear of the internal components of these machines. The design of cards and projections also takes a lot of time, as well as the operating expenses of this tavern. A card

Selling twenty taels for a guarantee is actually making money at a loss."

"Teacher, if you think it's expensive, you can also choose to buy a gift bag."

"For example, this 648 novice gift pack contains 50 ordinary card packs, 3 rare card packs that must be rare or above, 1 random epic card, and also comes with the skin and card back of Sage of Six Paths."

"And it's still during the opening limited time event. As long as you make the first six liang, six liang! You will get a rare card [Blue Waiter - Matt Dai] for free!"

Umino Ikkaku was confused by what Natsuhiko said.

He shook his head and started counting on his fingers.

Originally, he couldn't accept spending the price of ten bowls of ramen on a bunch of things that were tangible and intangible.

But in comparison with the standard price of card packs, you could only buy 32 card packs for 648 taels in the past, but now you can get 50 card packs at once, and there are so many other rewards, which seems to be a very good deal.

It feels like buying a few more copies will make Xia Yan bankrupt.

There is also the Matt Dai card with the first rush reward. Although it is not very attractive in itself, after adding the words "limited time" and "out of print", it suddenly made Umino Ikkaku feel itchy.

I feel like I'm at a loss if I don't buy it now.

After all, you never know when you will need it.

Thinking of this, Umino Ikkaku's hand couldn't help but reach for the wallet in his pocket.

But his many years of experience as a ninja made him accustomed to enduring everything, so he suppressed this thought for the time being.

He decided to follow Xia Yan's words first, finish the tutorial and take all the bonus card packs to see the situation.

So he followed Xia Yan's instructions and clicked on the [Tutorial] option on the interface with his finger.

The next moment, the entire interface was like broken glass, turning into fragments and slowly disappearing into the air.

Amidst the melodious music, a yellowed picture scroll in the Ukiyoe style slowly unfolded in front of him...

Starting from landscape paintings of mountains and rivers, to genre paintings depicting the secular life of the Warring States Period, the final picture focused on a dilapidated farmhouse, and the painting style gradually moved from Ukiyo-e to reality...

A short, thin boy with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, carrying a small baggage, looked back at the dilapidated house behind him, and finally chose to leave quietly.

At the same time, a few lines of text gradually appeared in the blank space of the screen.

[Kinoshita Tokichiro was born in a farm family in Owari Nakamura. Due to disagreements with his adoptive father, he ran away from home when he was young...]

Umino Ikkaku, who was rubbing his hands to start playing cards, was confused by the scene in front of him.

"Xia Yan, why are you still telling stories in your teaching mode?"

He has also seen the videos Xia Yan showed to his students, so he is no stranger to this form of storytelling.

Xia Yan smiled and explained:

"Just to make the tutorial a little more interesting."

"I see."

Umino Ikkaku responded without saying much because the story in front of him was still developing.

Since it was just to add color to the tutorial, Xia Yan did not dare to compete with some 3A masterpieces in his previous life, and let people watch cutscenes for an hour at the beginning.

Instead, it uses a montage technique to intercept important fragments of the protagonist Kinoshita Tokichiro's life, and then supplements it with text explanations to quickly explain the background of the story.

…

[During the journey, Tokichiro sometimes sold needles and sometimes served as a handyman around the wild samurai. Gradually, he made up his mind to become a samurai...]

[Although he once became a military commander under Imagawa Yoshimoto and a retainer of Matsushita Kabei, he was ostracized by his colleagues and had no choice but to run away...]

【He eventually returned to his hometown of Owari and worked as a handyman at the Oda family.】

With the help of the fast-moving scenes and the narration, Umino Ikkaku quickly gained a general understanding and identification with the young man named Kinoshita Tokichiro.

To put it simply, it means that you start to have a sense of immersion.

Soon, another important figure, Tokichiro's lord Oda Nobunaga, also appeared.

"Monkey, bring me the straw sandals."

With the sound of the first line of dialogue in the story, Tokichiro's life began to undergo earth-shaking changes...
