Konoha's task master

Inside Longdi Cave, huge blocks of soil mixed with boulders crashed down, making a huge roar, and the white platform cracked and collapsed, like a scene during an earthquake.

Although the battle is over, the aftermath is still destroying everything around it. The remaining extreme violence is superimposed in the cramped space, gathering like pulses and turning into an invisible storm.

This scene is like the end of the world.

Neither Tsunade nor Jiraiya expected that this battle would end in such a simple way, with Orochimaru being instantly suppressed and killed in his lair.

They all saw Orochimaru's strength, but Yakumo's power was beyond their comprehension.

How could it be... so neat and tidy?

Huge rocks fell down, and the bloody tree roots blocked it. The trees were like pillars supporting the gradually collapsing cave.

At the same time, more trees grow and spread.

In Yakumo's perception, the remaining big snake in Ryuji Cave was being strangled by the blood-colored tree roots and fled.

Yakumo stood on the spot and slowly sheathed the sword, recalling the six extremely violent slashes just now in his mind. Although the many energies in his body had been perfectly coordinated, they had not been fused.

When he killed Nasus in the arena, the fusion attack that suddenly appeared suddenly did not reappear, and the mysterious and mysterious feeling gradually receded.

In battle, it is easier to understand the progress of sword skills.

This is a dynamic skill that requires gaining experience in life and death fights.

"Let's go." Yakumo said to the other two people.

Jiraiya: "Okay."

"Is this solved?" Tsunade asked in surprise.

"If nothing else happens, Orochimaru will never appear again in this life."

"I promise this time."

Yakumo took out the big-headed doll and found that the violent state had been lifted, but the damaged parts had not healed.

Status, updated to usable again.

Jiraiya looked at the body burning in pure white flames with a complicated expression. When the anger subsided, he remembered the friendship he had once had.

Yakumo asked: "Do we still need to collect ashes this time?"

"forget it."

Jiraiya and Tsunade attended Orochimaru's funeral three times, and even now they are confused...

Is Orochimaru really dead?

The three of them were connected by their hands, Yakumo continued to inject chakra, and the surrounding bloody trees were still growing, destroying everything inside Ryūchi Cave.

When the chakra is filled, the aura of the White Snake Immortal reaches its peak.

"Uh-huh."

At the last moment, Yakumo canceled the order to kill everyone, and the bloody trees will still continue to grow.

But they will not actively persecute the remaining poisonous snakes. Perhaps a few hundred years later, the snake immortal who masters the chakra of the immortal will appear again.

White mist rises, light and shadow flash.

Yakumo and three others had already appeared in the Hokage's office, and Hatake Sakumo said with some worry.

"Failed?"

"Of course it was successful. There is no reason why I would fail if I took action."

"But this is too fast."

It's no wonder that Hatake Sakumo thought that the operation failed, after all, less than five minutes had passed since the three people disappeared.

"Yakumo's strength crushed Orochimaru, and the battle ended in a breath." Jiraiya removed the immortal face from his face and explained to Hatake Sakumo what happened during the battle.

"So, just, one knife, end the battle?"

Hatake Sakumo stroked the pen in his hand, with a hint of disbelief in his tone.

Yakumo: "Actually, it's ew, ew, ew...six swords."

"How is it possible? I obviously only saw one knife."

Jiraiya asked in confusion.

"The environment was a little dark at the time, and the purple venom blocked the line of sight, so it was normal to see clearly."

"This battle has consumed me a lot, so I'll go back and rest first."

"Leave it to Jiraiya-sama to report the task process."

Yakumo opened the window and jumped down. He disappeared from the sight of several people in a few breaths and walked a little hastily.

He could understand Tsunade's obsession with the rope tree. The scales that sealed the natural technique of reincarnation had been hidden by Tsunade before returning.

Obviously, Tsunade planned to hide this from Hatake Sakumo.

"No, in immortal mode, I have night vision. How could I misjudge the number of attacks just because the environment is dark?"

Jiraiya scratched his silver hair and said with some confusion.

"Actually... there is still a possibility." Hatake Sakumo paused slightly and continued. "That is because the speed of Yakumo's moves exceeds the limit of what your eyes can judge, so you regard the six swords as

One knife."

"Hiss~"

Jiraiya took a breath, which meant that if Yakumo swung the sword at him, he would be unable to resist at all, and would be killed without even having time to react.

Jiraiya: "I can't understand, I can't understand..."

"Are there any other details about this mission?" Hatake Sakumo asked.

"This time Longdi Cave should be regarded as completely destroyed."

Tsunade said proactively.

From now on, there are only two holy places left in the ninja world.

"Can Orochimaru leave scroll relics after his death?" Hatake Sakumo asked.

"That's not true. Yakumo's attack was covered with some kind of pure white flame, and Orochimaru's body was completely burned."

Tsunade reported that just as Yakumo suspected, Tsunade actively concealed the existence of the reincarnation art.

Hatake Sakumo did not doubt that he was there and continued to ask a few questions.

Tsunade and Jiraiya answered in unison.

Not long after, the two left the Hokage's office, and Hatake Sakumo failed to notice what the two concealed.

Tsunade and Jiraiya used to work together to report missions, but at that time, they fooled Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Jiraiya: "Tsunade, where do you plan to go later?"

"I'm tired, go home...what about you?"

"I plan to visit the old man, do you want to come with me?"

"No, I'm very tired."

After Tsunade finished speaking, she exerted force on her legs and disappeared from Jiraiya's eyes in a few seconds.

"Why."

Before the Second Hokage contributed the secret ninjutsu and constructed the Book of Sealings, he compiled all the forbidden jutsu into a book and left it to the Senju clan.

Among them is the reincarnation of filth.

Jiraiya speculated that Tsunade left in such a hurry because she was going home to study the art of reincarnation.

All Jiraiya could do was cooperate.

"This is love."

On the other hand, Yakumo sat on the sofa when he got home and reviewed today's battle. Every time he reviewed, he reflected on his own shortcomings, looked for loopholes in the battle, and made improvements.

Combat experience is a rather conceptual thing. It cannot be taught by words and deeds, and it cannot be done behind closed doors. It can only be thought about, understood, and accumulated experience after countless fights.

"wrong!"

Yakumo used a total of two swords to cut off nine heads.

But now that I think about it, those nine heads are not the key point of that giant beast at all. Relatively speaking, the core of the huge body is the real key point.

The first two slashes had very limited effects.

If those two slashes were placed in more effective positions, a more perfect result might be achieved.

When killing, you should use your own strength to attack the enemy's weakness.

Yakumo continued to analyze today's battle situation, but the experience he could comprehend was very limited. After all, this was a crushing battle.

Perhaps there is only one good news.

〖Glory Sword Box, evolution level: 58.3%〗

Although it was a crushing battle, fortunately Orochimaru was strong enough, so the evolution base obtained by the Glory Sword Box was quite large.

After Yakumo sorted out the results of this battle, he couldn't help but feel a little relaxed. He had solved Orochimaru, and he had finally eliminated a serious problem in his heart.

Then the next period of time is about falling in love and cultivating apprentices.

"Hiss, it seems...the Kingdom of Water also needs to be explored."

Yakumo really didn't want to be so busy, but the presence of Uchiha Madara made him feel uneasy.

A few minutes later, Yakumo's shadow clone flew high into the sky.

As a compromise, let the shadow clone be responsible for exploring, while the main body walked into the bedroom after washing up, intending to replenish energy.

Last night I upgraded Wood Escape and had a decisive battle in the arena. I stayed up all night.

In the morning, I had a sparring session with Yougu Qianxue, and then raided Longdi Cave. Although the battle only lasted a short time, it consumed a lot of energy.

At this time, Yakumo lay down on the bed and fell asleep soon after.

Time passed and it was ten o'clock that night.

Yakumo woke up from bed on time. The first thing he did was to check the task system and found that all daily tasks were ready for submission.

A smile couldn't help but appear on his face.

It's shameful to get something for nothing, but it's very satisfying.

Yakumo submits it directly and gets gold coins from the task.

At the same time, check out the extra memories in your mind.

At noon during the day, Masako Mori came to visit.

When she saw that the main body was sleeping, she chatted with the shadow clone for half an hour and left.

"Don't always stay up late to practice in the future. Although strength is important, you can't always stay up late as it will be very harmful to your body."

Masako Mori's instructions came to Yakumo's mind, but it was a pity that she didn't understand the endless fun of games, nor did she understand the exhilaration of staying up all night.

Another memory comes from the shadow clone sent to Kirigakure Village.

The person currently in charge of everything in Kirigakure Village is the Third Mizukage.

Yakumo detected traces of the Sharingan illusion in his body, and it was obvious that Uchiha Madara was the actual master of Kirigakure Village.

Heavy fog is commonplace in Kirigakure Village.

This is the shadow clone of Yakumo, manipulating the fog of eternal sleep to search for Uchiha Madara. Unfortunately, until the chakra is exhausted and the memory returns... there is no trace of Uchiha Madara in the Kirigakure Village.

"It's part of the plan."

When Uchiha Madara lost the Rinnegan Eye, he also lost the ability to suppress everything. Coupled with the two accidents of Orochimaru and Yakumo in the ninja world, perhaps hiding temporarily is the right decision.

Yakumo got up and went to the kitchen to eat the food carefully prepared by the shadow clone while browsing the mission interface.

Currently, there are very few tasks in progress.

Fewer of them are considered important.

For the bonding mission, only Jiraiya is left.

But to make it happen, Tsunade and Jiraiya have a long way to go.

Annual limited edition, it is necessary to lay the foundation for Uchiha Itachi's training.

Yakumo plans to officially start tomorrow, the steps of warming up the body, promoting cell activity, and subtly increasing physical attributes.

Finally, the proof of dominance.

This is a general task. The task process is simple and direct. You only need to kill the strong men in the One Piece world to absorb the power of destiny, and finally achieve the position of overlord and gain huge benefits.

The point is to kill, not to defeat.

This is a bloody road.

Yakumo hesitated for a moment, then he decided to officially start planning to complete the Overlord's Certificate. High risks meant high rewards, and difficult mission conditions also meant generous mission rewards.

Beside the wooden table, Yakumo began to sort out the abilities he had mastered.

Swordsmanship: Hatake Secret Code Master level is perfect.

Ninjutsu: Taoist level of wood escape secret code, 3%.

Sealing Technique: Yin and Yang Seal Master Level Perfection.

Immortal magic: Immortal mode master level, proficiency progress 0.

Currently, this is the main system controlled by Yakumo. Among them, Sage Mode and Yin Yang Seal are not taken seriously and have not been improved for a long time.

Yin and Yang are sealed, and ten master-level breakthrough scrolls are needed to break through.

Yakumo checked the props he currently has in the game system. One eternal scroll, one Taoist scroll, three grandmaster breakthrough scrolls, and fifteen master breakthrough scrolls. Unfortunately, he no longer wants to improve.

skills.

Some time ago, through the efforts of the shadow clone, the proficiency in the art of submersion in the earth reached perfection, and Yakumo immediately used two master-level breakthrough scrolls to improve it.

After this ninjutsu breakthrough, Yakumo's improvement was very simple and could be divided into two directions.

He can dive deeper into the ground, about three hundred meters, and the second is the reduction in chakra consumption.

Yakumo was writing and drawing on the white paper. The improvement of Wood Release was definitely the core of the future, but what he was undecided about was...Sage Mode.

The current master-level immortal mode can only provide less than five points of four major attribute bonuses. Although it is still quite powerful, if it continues to develop, it is destined to become a bit useless.

In Immortal Mode, it takes 6,400 acceleration conversions to reach full proficiency, which is equivalent to the consumption of 64,000 gold coins.

These gold coins are enough to upgrade the Ci Mu Dun Secret Code and gain about 2% of the Taoist progress. In that case, the power of Mu Dun will be increased by 20%.

What Yakumo is struggling with is whether he can gain a 20% bonus to the power of the Wood Release Secret Code by improving the Sage Mode.

In the end, Yakumo spent a circle on Sage Mode.

Change your focus again and focus on your sword skills.

In his opinion, this skill is destined to break through to the Taoist level, but sooner or later there will be room for thinking.

"Energy fusion?"

This is Yakumo's guess. He believes that sword skills are one step closer, and it is very likely that a variety of energies are mixed to obtain a new transformation.

Of course, there is also a small chance that it may be an improvement in skills.

Sword skills, wood escape, immortal skills.

All three are very important. As for Water Release Mercy, the Grandmaster level is the upper limit designed by Yakumo, and he will not continue to spend gold coins to upgrade it.

Of course, the immediate problem is insufficient gold coins!

"Take a step and take a look."

Yakumo took out the vicious curse of the big-headed doll. The damage on this powerful prop could not be repaired, and it was obviously completely damaged.

Of course, it can still be used.

He stood up, rinsed briefly, and returned to the bedroom.

The next day, early morning.

Yakumo opened his eyes and realized that his morning jog had been completed. The corners of his mouth unconsciously curled up in an unnoticeable arc, and he quietly praised Qianxue in his heart.

After he had eaten, he went to Konoha Hospital.

In terms of status, he is the honorary vice president of Konoha Hospital.

You don't need to do anything every month to get a monthly salary of 500,000 and life cell dividends.

This dividend is a huge number.

Yakumo masters the core technology.

When Yakumo came to the laboratory, he found that only Reiko Aoyama was conducting experiments on the configuration of life cells. His thoughts suddenly changed, and Yakumo had already guessed Tsunade's whereabouts.

"Tsunade, I drank too much yesterday, so I asked for leave today."

Aoyama Reiko rubbed her sore shoulders and explained to Yakumo with a wry smile.

"Did you drink too much?" Yakumo said with a smile.

"Sister Qingshan, do you believe she will ask for leave tomorrow?"

Aoyama Reiko nodded. "I believe it."

"Why do you believe it?"

Yakumo was a little surprised. Could it be that Tsunade had confessed to Reiko Aoyama that she planned to resurrect the Senju Rope Tree.

"Because Tsunade took two months off today."

"Ah? I drank for two months straight?"

"Is there no one in Konoha who can care about her?"

Yakumo asked a little unhappy.

Aoyama Reiko: "This seems to be gone. You also know that Konoha Hospital is under the jurisdiction of the Medical Department, and the current head of the Medical Department is Tsunade."

"It's hateful, I want to skip work too."

Blue light emitted from Yakumo's hands, cultivating the life cells in the petri dish, and at the same time complained somewhat unhappily.

"Didn't you skip work yesterday? I was the only one in the lab yesterday. My sister felt so cold yesterday."

Reiko Aoyama pretended to be aggrieved.

"I went on a mission yesterday, otherwise I would definitely be willing to accompany my sister."

Yakumo answered with a smile. After cultivating the life cells in his hands, he took out another petri dish from the cryogenic cabinet and wrapped it with blue light.

Upon hearing this, Reiko Aoyama stopped joking and immediately expressed concern.

"How is it? Is it dangerous?"

"Okay, it's not a big problem."

Without the seal, Yakumo separated into twenty shadow clones, all of which began cultivating life cells, intending to make up for the gap during this period.

Reiko Aoyama: "You don't look like you are injured."

She could guess the mission performed by Yakumo, but she did not expose some of Yakumo's white lies. She lowered her head and speeded up the processing of life cells.

"The order for life cells has been delayed until three years..."

Yakumo's face darkened slightly. "This is a rhythm that will kill you."

"Tsunade, she plans to let Shizune learn how to cultivate life cells. She asked me to ask about your attitude." Aoyama Reiko continued.

"Of course you can. The difficulty in cultivating life cells is the highly proficient Palm Immortal Technique. When the time comes, the two of us will teach you step by step and it shouldn't be a problem for Shizune to master it within two months." Yakumo replied.

Suddenly, the figure of another person appeared in Yakumo's mind. He once asked Hatake Sakumo to take care of the pharmacist Nonou, and she has now become an employee of Konoha Hospital and masters the palm celestial technique.

"Teaching one person is also teaching, why not add another person."

Reiko Aoyama asked: "Who?"

"Yakushi Nonou."

Aoyama Reiko's memory of the pharmacist Nonou emerged in her mind. She only knew that he was a very gentle person who always had a smile on his face and was very popular with patients and nurses.

But she doesn't like icebergs or warm water.

"How do you know her?

Aoyama Reiko asked curiously.

"She has a strong talent for medical ninjutsu. She was once coveted by Danzo. By chance, I discovered Danzo's conspiracy, so I asked Uncle Hatake to take care of her." Yakumo answered half-truthfully.

"You have no experience with her, so you plan to recommend her?

Don’t forget, life cells are Konoha’s biggest secret, and they will also be Konoha Hidden Village’s biggest source of income for the next hundred years.”

"Of course I know the serious relationship between it."

When life cells appeared, this technology directly became the jealous object of all major ninja villages. In the past two years, countless spies tried to sneak in and steal it, and eventually all of them were hated by Konoha Hospital.

Not only is this laboratory guarded day and night by two teams of ANBU, but even Aoyama Reiko, a Kage-level powerhouse, stays at Konoha Hospital every day.

It can be said that this time, except for the Hokage Building, the entire Konoha Ninja Village has the most complete security, and the major Ninja Villages cannot stop their greed in their hearts.

Of course, not only the outside world, but also many ninja clans in Konoha Ninja Village sent people to test him. Fortunately, they were still afraid of Yakumo's strength, so they didn't break out.

"Then you recommend someone you don't know at all?"

"We can let the Anbu investigate first, and then we can observe her for two months. In this way, we should be able to determine whether she has any malicious intentions."

"After all, this technology is destined to be passed down."

"That's fine. I'll keep an eye on her for two months."

Reiko Aoyama was finally convinced by Yakumo.

"Thank you for your hard work, sister."

Yakumo replied with a smile.

"No pain, no pain."

"In this world, if you trust others too easily, you will easily pay the price." Reiko Aoyama comforted her with sincere words.

"Actually, it doesn't matter. When the soul is strong enough, it can instinctively sense a person's emotional changes. If she sneaks in with malicious intentions, she can't hide it from me." Yakumo said frankly.

"Can you feel emotions?" Reiko Aoyama asked.

Yakumo nodded.

Aoyama Reiko was slightly stunned. In this case, the many emotions she had when facing him...could they all be in Yakumo's perception?

Suddenly, she blushed with embarrassment.

"Don't worry, I don't activate this ability in daily life, so I can't feel my sister's emotions at the moment."

Yakumo told lies seriously.

The shadow clone next to him subconsciously rolled his eyes.

Two hours later, Yakumo completed his training goal for this month, but he did not leave immediately. Instead, he stayed with Reiko Aoyama until noon.

After having lunch at Konoha Hospital, Yakumo left, his goal being the Uchiha clan.

After not seeing each other for a while, he missed his little apprentice very much. Of course, there was also an element of concern about the progress of the mission.

Half an hour later, Yakumo knocked on the courtyard door.

Not long after, Yakumo saw Uchiha Mikoto. Due to her pregnancy, her belly was slightly bulging, her face had a kind smile, and her brows and eyes were full of tenderness.

Yakumo has a deep friendship with the mothers of the two protagonists.

Uchiha Mikoto's characteristics are gentleness and open-mindedness that tolerates all things like water, so Uzumaki Kushina is hot, burning like a fire, and daring to love and hate is synonymous with her.

The two have opposite personalities, but they are close best friends.

"Yakumo-sama." Uchiha Mikoto greeted.

"Sister Mikoto, you don't have to be so polite. Minato and I are good friends, and Kushina is a sibling."

Yakumo scratched his head in embarrassment.

Uchiha Mikoto was silent for a moment, and finally nodded.

"Okay...Yakumo."

"I'm going to see Itachi first."

"please."

On the platform under the eaves, Uchiha Itachi sat cross-legged with a short-bladed fire flower on his knees. His whole body was covered with a layer of golden light. From a distance, his milk-like skin seemed to be able to penetrate the sun.

The expression on Uchiha Itachi's face was calm and peaceful, with a maturity and calmness that was far beyond ordinary people. The muscles all over his body could be seen... traces of regular sword practice.

The aura is sharp, like a sharp knife being drawn out of its sheath.

this moment,

Yakumo finally determined that meditation is beneficial to the practice of swordsmanship!
