Konoha's task master

The desolate arena is suspended in the void, the passage of time has stopped at this moment, and the surrounding moving dust remains still in mid-air.

In this world where time stands still, only Yakumo and three blue balls of light can move.

Yakumo did not check the reward immediately, but stood there and recalled the thrilling battle just now.

It can be said that...his victory was very lucky.

His advantage lies in his understanding of the enemy, and his advantage lies in his surprise.

He first used frontal combat to influence Mr. Chongguo's judgment of himself, and then used his soul-controlling ability at a critical moment.

He dug a hole from the beginning of the battle and finally won.

The characteristic of the soul control ability is concealment, and it did not disappoint Yakumo, playing the role of instant victory. Yakumo analyzed that the soul control may be used in conjunction with the water bomb skill to achieve ultra-long-distance kills.

A few minutes later, Yakumo opened his eyes again.

All the insights from the battle just now have been digested, and I have a somewhat new understanding and thinking about Daohua-level sword skills.

The Daohua level of Wood Release can only be regarded as an accident. The Daohua level of Hatake Secret Code... is the power that Yakumo really wants to master.

Energy can be blocked, but honed skills cannot... In an absolutely harsh environment, sword skills can play their best role.

Those things should be considered later. The most urgent thing now is to reap the rewards of a successful challenge.

Yakumo raised his right hand and pointed at the first blue light group.

〖Tip: Congratulations to the player for getting 50,000 gold coins.〗

Currently, the gold coin balance is: 80,000+ coins.

Then came the second blue light group.

〖Tip: Congratulations to the player for getting six free attribute points.〗

These two are rewards that Yakumo has seen many times. Although he is very happy, he will not lose his calm.

Only, the last reward made Yakumo particularly concerned.

This is also the real highlight.

〖Tips: Congratulations to the player for obtaining the Chant of the Emperor of Heaven.〗

"The Chant of the Emperor of Heaven"

Prop type: Gloves·Weapon (cannot be worn)

Holder: Constitution plus eight, strength plus eight.

Amplification attribute: 200%

Amplification entry: Emperor of Heaven.

Prop description: The mythical weapon of the Emperor of Heaven carries the strongest fire in the world. When it hits the enemy, it will cause all concepts of the enemy to burn, including the soul.

Features of props: Emperor of Heaven’s pressure (can grow)

Characteristic description: The place where the Emperor of Heaven is is the place where the divine power is.

As the fighting time continues, your own strength attributes will continue to increase, up to 160%.

This characteristic is not affected by status. Even if the body is damaged, it can still be amplified to increase combat power until death.

Evolution: 0%

Bound by: Masako Mori

This is a very powerful weapon, and it belongs exclusively to Masako Mori and cannot be used by anyone else.

This is also in line with Yakumo's guess. The first six floors of the arena focus on strengthening oneself, while the last six floors of the arena... focus more on strengthening and improving the surrounding partners.

Without even thinking, Yakumo could guess that the material of the weapon of the Emperor of Heaven was taken from the ability of Mr. Shigekuni.

It was taken from the essence of the most powerful fire-type Zanpakutō, and turned into the chant of the current Emperor through the ability of the game system.

Yakumo took over the Emperor's chant.

This weapon looks very luxurious in appearance. It is made of silver as a whole and exudes a light silver luster. Two bright red gems are inlaid on the back of the hand.

Similar in size to an egg.

In the finger joint area, some kind of silver scales are used to create sharp protrusions, which look very strong.

Of course, the most important thing about the Chant of the Emperor of Heaven is that it has an indestructible passivity.

Enough for Masako Mori to use it for a lifetime without any damage.

Compared with the Sorrow of the Nile, this weapon is simpler and more direct, especially the double increase in physique and strength, which can create monsters with extremely powerful physical strength. It just lacks a bit of unpredictable characteristics.

Yakumo put away his gloves, and a countdown appeared in the void around him.

"Ten...nine...eight...six...three...two...one."

〖Prompt: Do players want to continue the challenge?〗

"No, exit the arena."

The eighth floor was all about trickery to win, and the ninth floor was definitely even more hopeless. Although he was curious about the ninth floor BOSS, he didn't have the habit of looking for abuse.

As time goes by, the scene fragments.

Yakumo sat upright. It was already late at night. The two battles in the arena took a total of about five hours.

When he stood outside the house, looking at the stars in the sky, he was planning to find a place to watch the stars to calm his inner joy.

But before his eyes...

It actually flashes with countless colorful colors.

The new interface is expanded and the font displayed is pink.

〖Chinese Valentine's Day Limited〗

Limited discounts, exclusive props, limited time flash sales!

If you buy it, you will earn it; if you miss it, you will regret it for a year!

Yakumo directly found the only item limited to Tanabata.

"Together we protect"

Prop type: Chinese Valentine's Day limited edition

Item description: Bring protection to the one you love. When she is attacked by a fatal attack, she can appear next to you instantly and restore 50% of the wearer's health.

Prop restrictions: This prop can only be used once per year.

Price of props: True love is priceless, sold for a limited time.

Yakumo clicked on the purchase button.

〖Tip: This process requires 49,999 gold coins.〗

"Isn't true love priceless? Then what is this 49,999!"

"Isn't it priceless? Why do you still want to accept my gold coins!"

Yakumo clenched his fists instantly, but still pressed the purchase button firmly, and the balance of the gold coins disappeared like running water.

Although Yakumo feels distressed, he definitely has no regrets.

Although fifty thousand gold coins would slow down his own improvement, spending fifty thousand gold coins to buy peace of mind... was enough to make him happy.

With the concentric guardianship, during the next mission... Yakumo can feel more confident about letting Masako Mori follow him to explore the dungeon.

After all, during the exploration of the two-player dungeon, Xiangu Qianxue used her own life... to ensure that even if she died in battle, there would be no need to pay the price.

Coupled with... guarding her together, the chance of Masako Mori's death will become lower.

Currently, the balance of gold coins is...36,780.

Yakumo continued to browse. Inside the Tanabata limited store, in addition to the Concentric Guardian, there were many other props, including Taoist scrolls, master breakthrough scrolls, various essence stones and enchanted stones.

In fact, Taoist scrolls are very important.

However, Yakumo's gold coins no longer allow him to purchase them, and the Concentric Guardian and Taoist Scrolls are like fish and bear's paws that cannot be had at the same time.

Yakumo browsed through the limited-edition store again, but in the end he could only close the store unwillingly and sighed softly.

Pass and get 50,000 gold coins on the eighth floor of the arena.

To purchase, Protect Together costs 49,000.

It's equivalent to... fighting for five hours and getting one gold coin.

"Fortunately, there are still six free attribute points."

The sudden event today caused some waves in Yakumo's heart. Tanabata is a festival in his original world, and the launch of the game system made Yakumo more connected to that world.

In that world, today should be Chinese Valentine’s Day, right?

The Magpie Bridge on Chinese Valentine's Day, the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl.

Yakumo turned into golden light and appeared on the roof. He slowly lay down and looked at the Milky Way in the sky, his eyes slowly becoming lazy.

In the game panel, Yakumo is slowly adding points.

This time he is strengthening his agility attributes.

After all, the Taoist level transformation of the Hatake Secret Code requires the agility attribute to reach 68 points and the strength attribute to reach 60 points.

As the strengthening continues, the lines of Yakumo's limb muscles become tighter and more capable of instant explosive power. The warm energy continues to strengthen the muscle cells.

Split, recombine, muscle metamorphosis.

Transformation is taking place quietly.

Yakumo's single improvement ratio is very low, only 0.1. These lead to a very gentle strengthening process and more durability...

Subtly change the structure of your own muscles.

Ten minutes, twenty minutes, thirty minutes.

Even an hour…

Yakumo's strengthening has finally reached the final stage, the muscles of his limbs have become slimmer, and his overall body has become lighter.

Finally, when the upgrade is completed.

Intelligence: 67.2 (nervous reaction, running speed)

Yakumo actually didn't realize that the improvement in his agility attribute also improved his nerve reaction speed. In battle, he could attack or defend in a shorter time.

Now Yakumo's nerve reaction speed should have crushed Namikaze Minato at his peak. This ability is very important in close combat and can determine the outcome of the battle.

Currently, the agility attribute is missing by 0.8 points, and the strength is missing by 1.3 points.

Two points and one free attribute point can be exchanged for Taoist level sword skills.

No, you still need three master-level breakthrough scrolls.

Currently, Yakumo only has one master scroll.

In terms of gold coins, the consumption is about 40,000 gold coins. In this way, the gap between the level of swordsmanship and that level is still huge.

Then open the game interface and find the Qixi Festival Limited Edition.

"Grandmaster Level Breakthrough Scroll" +1

Gold coins...minus 23,000, balance: 13,780 coins.

These gold coins were no longer enough to collect the Grandmaster's breakthrough scroll, so Yakumo could only change his attention and focus his gaze again on the bright Milky Way.

"Yo, I knew you were here."

Mori Masako appeared next to Yakumo in loose sleeping clothes, with her snow-white skin exposed at the collar, and she lay down without hesitation.

The two of them were very close to each other, and their hands were linked naturally.

Yakumo could smell the faint fragrance. In fact, after every bath, Masako Mori would try his best to get rid of the smell of shower gel. After all, ninjas need to reduce their own presence as much as possible.

"This is a gift for you. You must carry it around the clock."

Yakumo took out the Heart Guard from his arms, a rather simple bracelet, which was made of very transparent crystals. It looked ordinary but had a natural beauty.

This appearance is not worth forty-nine thousand gold coins at all.

The word "heartache" appeared in my originally peaceful heart.

"Okay, then I'll accept it, thank you."

Masako Mori smiled and took the bracelet, and looked at it carefully. Although she didn't see anything strange about it, judging from Yakumo's attitude, she thought it was another prop with special abilities.

"This prop can offset a fatal blow."

Yakumo briefly explained the skill of Concentric Guardian, and Masako Mori couldn't put it down even more, and directly put it on the wrist of her left hand.

"Even if I take a shower in the future, I will not take off the bracelet."

"That's not necessary. Remember to bring it with you during battle."

Yakumo shook his head and pinched Masako Mori's cheek.

"I got it."

Immediately afterwards, Yakumo took out the chant of the Emperor of Heaven from his arms.

This glove, with a silver base color and an armor-like feel, immediately gained Masako Mori's love, as if... this prop was born just for her.

When she saw the sadness of the Nile River, Qianxue had a similar feeling. It was like a feeling of destiny.

"Is this for me?"

"I love so much."

Mori Masako directly snatched the Emperor's Ode from Yakumo's hand, held it in his hand and observed it carefully. Inside the glove... he felt a very familiar energy, which was a very high temperature flame.

The flame of the phantom black bird.

The Flame of the Emperor's Chant.

Both of these are her abilities.

When Masako Mori put on the silver gloves, two completely different flames began to burn in her fists.

With a flash of golden light, Yakumo hid four or five meters away. He felt a strong sense of threat from the two groups of flames, and his body reacted instinctively.

"Okay, okay, you have time to experience it slowly. If you continue the experiment, everyone in the entire base will be woken up by you."

Yakumo said to Masako Mori helplessly that the sudden flames had awakened Long from his sleep, but he did not rush to check.

"Okay, I understand."

Masako Mori withdrew the burning flame, but still looked at the Emperor's chant with curiosity on her face. This glove-shaped weapon fit extremely well with her skin, and she could not feel any weight.

"I like this weapon very much."

After playing with it for a few minutes, Masako Mori said to Yakumo with a smile.

"As long as you like it."

The black energy adjusted and gathered in front of Yakumo's eyes.

Name: Masako Mori

Age: seventeen years old

Intimacy: 100 (full value)

Physique: 67-71 Intelligence: 63-67

Status: available for team formation

Yakumo stretched out his hand and held Masako Mori's hand, waiting for the game system to apply for team formation. He had already experienced this kind of thing once, and he was not panicking at this time.

"Tip: The player has sent a team application..."

"Prompt: The other party did not respond, five, four,...one."

The countdown reaches zero in the blink of an eye.

"Tip: Since the intimacy level is full, it is deemed to be consent."

"Congratulations to the player for successfully forming a team. You will be automatically promoted to captain."

Yakumo let go of his hand, and Mori Masako was already in a team state. The three of them had officially formed a game team to explore the dungeon together. What was missing at this time was to activate Mori Masako's sub-interface.

Although the game system gives Chiyuki Chiyuki and Masako Mori the opportunity to improve their own strength, this opportunity is fully controlled by Yakumo, and they have no actual control rights.

"What are you thinking about?"

Masako Mori asked the stunned Yakumo.

"Nothing, it just confirmed a guess."

Yakumo responded with a smile. Sure enough, every time you clear the arena and obtain a partner's bound weapon, you can unlock a new team qualification.

"What kind of day is today that I asked you to give me two big gifts?"

"Today is a beautiful day."

In today's arena, which has troubled Yakumo for a long time, he finally cleared the level, and he also received a huge improvement. He is only one step away from the dream of swordsmanship level...
