Konoha's task master

Light and shadow flow, and the world collapses.

Yakumo relaxed his tense nerves, and his sharp eyes became lazy. He would not always remain in a fighting state. Life has its own pattern of life, and fighting has its own fighting state.

If someone makes a sneak attack, he can also move through space to dodge, making him inherently invincible.

With the end of the four-day war.

The ground around Yakumo slowly disappeared, as if it was swallowed by some unknown creature, or as if it was returning to reality from a virtual space. Countless stones dissolved out of thin air, and the pale bones turned into a puff of white smoke.

The space where Yakumo was located once again transformed into an arena platform, with pure white stairs spreading from the end of the space to his feet.

The pure white stairs stand quietly.

There is no trace of the Yellow Sand Hell around, as if the experience just now was just a more realistic dream.

Yasuo's body was transformed into two cyan light balls, which were quietly suspended less than one meter in front of Yakumo, surrounded by sharp cyan wind energy.

At the same time, two cyan light balls were beating up and down like hearts, as if they had a life of their own. Yakumo's sight swept over...the beating of the two cyan light balls stopped and returned to calm.

The surroundings became very quiet, and there were vast stars overhead. The starlight from the sky fell on the surface of Yakumo's soul body, slowly recovering from his mental fatigue.

Yakumo recalled the battle with Yasuo just now in his mind.

From the initial brutal suppression, it gradually turned into an evenly matched battle between the two. They used shadow clones to contain them, and at the same time used recovery items to replenish their status, until Yasuo fell into a disadvantage.

In fact, in the final analysis, Yakumo spent the first three days being beaten, relying on the life source energy and the blood sac on the surface of the heart to continuously repair the injured body. At the same time, he also tore Yasuo's wind armor apart again and again.

In fact, Yasuo was not really injured. He just consumed a lot of energy, physical strength...and spirit. It was not until the fourth day that things turned around. The surrounding wind energy had been exhausted, and the recovery speed of the wind armor had slowed down.

But he couldn't defeat Yasuo quickly. The two still fought for nearly a day before they finally decided the winner...

The fighting will of a strong man is truly terrifying.

Even if he was in a desperate situation, he didn't panic at all. Every time he swung the knife, it was still as deadly as ever. Even if more than 80% of the blood in his body was lost, he still had the power to swing the knife.

This is the fighting will of a strong man, who will never fear or give up.

Yakumo was shaken by this will, and was even almost killed by Yasuo several times, but in the end he survived with his space ability.

A few minutes later, he recalled the battle in his mind for the second time and analyzed his shortcomings.

He doesn't have the heart of a strong man like Yasuo.

In other words... what Yakumo pursues is not to be invincible in the world, but to be able to protect the people he cares about despite the general situation of others.

But in other aspects, Yakumo believes that he has handled it extremely well, and is more determined to continue improving his physical attributes, using his strong recovery ability as a trump card to ensure victory.

One day...he will become truly immortal.

"call..."

Ten minutes later, Yakumo let out a breath of exhaustion and opened his eyes, no longer feeling any hesitation in his heart.

Yakumo took half a step forward and clicked on the cyan light ball in front of him.

"Heart of Controlling the Wind"

Introduction to the props: The source of the power of the Gale Swordsman, the energy group that masters the power of the gale. After absorbing it, it can increase the agility attribute, while also improving the user's compatibility with the wind energy, and the lethality when using the wind attribute.

Item description: Increase agility by ten to break through bottlenecks.

"Merge" or "Collect"

"Fusion."

There is no need to consider this kind of thing at all. After integrating the Blue Dragon Fruit, the physical fitness and strength attributes have been greatly improved, while Yakumo's agility attribute has become a hindrance.

Currently, it's only 69.9.

Now that you have obtained a prop that can break through the bottleneck, you must use it immediately and turn it into your own power.

"Yasuo, you are such a good person."

Poof, the next second the cyan chain had already pierced into the chest, and the wind energy like a blade was suddenly poured into Yakumo's body. This was a baptism or a wash.

“It hurts, it hurts, it hurts!

"

"Ahhhhh, Yasuo, you bitch..."

Yakumo couldn't understand why every experience of fusion ability was so... so painful, as if there were countless dull knives in his body, grinding bones and cutting flesh and blood... Every minute and second was torture, and his days seemed like years.

Blood spattered, and dense blood stains instantly appeared on the body surface, as if Yakumo was undergoing a torture of being cut into pieces with a thousand cuts.

For some reason, although the blue chain penetrates the soul body, it is connected to Yakumo's body, constantly destroying it.

Repair, destruction, bone-crushing pain.

When the pain reaches its peak, all that is left in the body is numbness.

This may be the so-called pain and numbness... The blood flows along the wound as if it is free, making the surrounding vines more red. The prayer mark on the back of the right hand appears automatically. For some reason... Yakumo suddenly rises.

A bit of fear,

After this energy destroyed, it began to change the structure of the bones and blood in Yakumo's body, and eventually began to affect the muscle cells, allowing the cells in Yakumo's body to activate and fuse wind energy.

His cells seemed to be being transformed into batteries, except that his cells were not storing electrical energy, but light and sharp wind energy.

At the same time, Yakumo cut off the pain nerve and began to close his eyes and enjoy the transformation of his body. This change reminded him of the magical power in a novel, which is the Divine Elephant Prison Suppressing Power.

Both of them undergo transformation from basic cells, ultimately driving the entire body to become stronger.

Yakumo could feel that his cells had gradually adapted to the extremely sharp wind energy, and various cells in his body began to swallow up this power.

Through observation, he found that the absorption rate of muscle cells is greater than that of blood cells and greater than that of bones, but it is obvious that bones store more energy, followed by blood cells and muscle cells.

Yakumo's connection with the world becomes closer.

After the transformation of muscles, blood, and bones is completed, the energy they can emit becomes more terrifying. The remaining wind energy becomes docile and begins to strengthen the internal organs so that they can adapt to the sudden increase in muscle cells.

Finally, almost three hours had passed. The cyan light group suspended in mid-air gradually became illusory and was on the verge of dissipating. Yakumo also reconnected with the pain nerves.

Now basically unable to feel any pain, Yakumo exerted his body strength and ejected directly from the ground to stand up.

With an expression on his face, he pointed at another cyan light group with a slight curiosity. If what he expected was true... the inside of this light group should be a prop that belongs exclusively to Kakashi.

The wind-controlling swordsmanship inherited from the Gale Swordsman.

But what makes Yakumo a little surprised is that... inside the light group is not a weapon, but a silver ring. The surface is wrapped with thorn-like texture, and in the center is a ring surface made of a silver gemstone, exuding a dull light.

of silver light.

Bound by: Reiko Aoyama

"Ah?"

Yakumo was puzzled as to why this prop didn't belong to Kakashi?

In addition, Aoyama Reiko's identity is also very problematic. She is the person in the world that Yakumo doesn't know how to face the most. Just like the old saying, it is the hardest to accept the kindness of a beautiful woman in the world.

"Why isn't it Kakashi's exclusive prop?"

Yakumo thought for a moment and asked the air.

He always feels that the game system actually has intelligence and may even be constantly evolving. The new functions developed during the anniversary celebration mean that the game system is constantly growing and improving itself.

At this time, the inquiry was the result of Yakumo's careful consideration.

"Tip: This question requires five hundred gold coins to answer."

"Tsk, as expected, you have intelligence...this money-hungry style is quite a bit like a big penguin."

"Prompt: Do you want to make a purchase?"

"Not buying..."

Yakumo immediately shook his head.

"I guess it has something to do with intimacy."

The intimacy level of Chiyuki Mori and Masako Mori is both at 100, so they received exclusive props issued by the game, but the last time Yakumo checked... his intimacy level with Kakashi was 99.

The game system went silent, which proved that Yakumo's guess was correct.

"Hint: The most important person in Kakashi is Hatake Sakumo."

"Your game system is really awkward. Is 1% intimacy important?"

Yakumo curled his lips and complained with some dissatisfaction.

In fact, Yakumo wanted to take this opportunity to test whether the game system has subjective emotions and what it is.

Yakumo has many secrets, but the biggest secret is this game system of unknown origin.

"The granting of arena props depends on the player's subconscious mind."

"Pfft, you are slandering me. I will sue you for slander!"

"Please compensate me for my mental losses and restore my reputation."

As soon as Yakumo said this, the game system went silent again.

"How many gold coins does it cost to determine whether Orochimaru is dead?"

After a few seconds, Yakumo decided to continue testing and asked proactively.

"Tip: The game map module is under development. Do you want to spend 350,000 gold coins to complete the development of this module instantly?"

"No, I don't have that many gold coins. Even if I have that many gold coins, it's better to use them to improve my strength than to develop map modules."

Yakumo refused without thinking and asked again.

"Query, current development progress."

『0%』

Ah, this game system simply takes Yakumo as a victim.

"Tip: If the player completes the development independently, it will no longer cost gold coins to use the game map in the future. On the contrary, it will cost 5,000 gold coins once."

Yakumo thought to himself that this was the difference between buying a house and renting a house, and he also encountered the problem of renters, that is, he could not afford to buy a house at all.

"What other functions do you have?"

"With gold coins in place, anything can be done."

"Insufficient gold coins, limited abilities."

"Well, actually you can't do anything..."

After Yakumo strengthened his love covenant, he only had two thousand gold coins left, which meant that what the game system could do was very limited.

"Exit the arena."

The battle that lasted for four days had already left Yakumo a little mentally exhausted. Coupled with the hours-long pain when fusing props, he was exhausted both physically and mentally. Now he just wanted to go home and rest.

It’s the tenth floor of the arena. It’s better to challenge it again if you have a chance in the future.

Anyway, Yakumo will definitely not be able to defeat that BOSS now.

Yakumo's soul body gradually dissipated, and the entire arena space also slowly dissipated, and the pure white stairs turned into light spots and disappeared.

He looked at the silver ring in his hand and his expression became extremely complicated. He originally thought that he would never have any interaction with Reiko Aoyama in the future, but fate played a huge joke on him.

In the outside space, Yakumo opened his eyes from among the bloody vines. The first thing he did was to check his current agility attribute.

Agility: 78.8 (nervous reaction, running speed)

Although the game system states that it can increase the agility attribute by ten points, breaking the bottleneck requires some energy consumption, and the final effect is only an increase of 8.9 agility attributes.

He planned to test the improvement in his agility attributes.

Suddenly, Yakumo appeared high in the sky above Konoha, completing his spatial movement.

The speed of space movement has become faster, probably because his reaction speed has been strengthened, especially the speed of nerve reaction, which allows him to prevent various forms of sneak attacks.

The muscles all over his body are filled with stronger explosive power. Another change is that Yakumo seems to have lost a few pounds, and his body has become more slender, more suitable for high-speed movement in various environments.

Even Yakumo's flying speed has been greatly improved. The surrounding space generates air currents out of thin air, which continuously increases his speed like a rocket thruster. His figure is like a meteor breaking through the sky and disappearing in an instant.

The other thing is...

Originally, Yakumo used his own powerful strength to forcibly swallow the natural energy and transform into a sage mode, but now he can clearly sense the wind-type energy of the natural species, which is gathering towards him somewhat crazily, like a soldier waiting for orders.

Yakumo waved his hand gently, not activating the Blue Dragon Fruit...but the hundred-meter-long green wind blade was born very suddenly, like a blue aurora, flying more than ten kilometers into the distance before slowly dissipating.

"Ha, Yasuo, you are really a good person."

Yakumo sighed softly. At this time, he subconsciously ignored the hardships he suffered during the fusion. He tried for a few more minutes until the surrounding wind energy was completely exhausted.

During this time, he needs to adapt to the changes in his body...

He was just about to leave for home when the sun gradually rose in the sky.

The night has passed.

Less than a month after her wedding, Masako Mori was alone in an empty house again.

In addition, it’s time to give the Devil Fruit in Yakumo’s hands to his friends.
