Konoha's Hextech Ninja

[Blade of the Ruined King: +40 Attack Damage, 25% Attack Speed, 10% Life Steal. 'Frost's Edge: Passive, attacks deal on-hit damage equal to 3% of the target's current health. 'Blade of the Ruined King: Passive, exclusive reward for the champion template 'Blade of the Ruined King - Fawkes', while holding this item, the strength of the Black Mist Field is increased by 100%.]

【Scythe of Thoth: +50 Attack Damage, 20 Skill Haste, 25% Critical Strike Chance. 'Spellblade': Passive, after casting a skill, your next attack deals bonus magic damage and restores 3% of your maximum chakra.】

[Berserker's Armor: +1000 Constitution, 100% base health regeneration. 'Berserker's Heart': Passive, regenerates 6% of maximum health per second when out of combat. 'Berserker's Vitality': Passive, grants an additional 12% Constitution.]

[Banshee's Veil: +105 Ability Power, 40 Magic Resistance. 'Obliterate': Passive, grants a spell shield that blocks the next spell, resets after 45 seconds or out of combat.]

The six pieces of equipment cost a total of over 18,000 gold coins, which is negligible compared to Yoruichi Yagami's current gold coin balance.

The increase in strength is neither small nor large; it mainly enhances the ability to sustain combat and survive.

The combination of [Guardian Angel] and [Banshee Veil] gives Yagami Yoruichi a very high margin for error.

They are not afraid of being ambushed, and they can be resurrected even if they die.

Even for enemies stronger than Yoruichi Yagami, killing her would be significantly more difficult.

The attributes of the Blade of the Ruined King are rather average; its main purpose is to enhance the 'Black Mist Domain'.

This is an ability that comes with the 'Ruined King - Fawkes' template, which can create 'black mist' to erode and assimilate everything around it.

When the black mist domain becomes powerful enough, Yagami Yoruichi's 'rank' will naturally be promoted.

The combination of the [Scythe of the Dead] and the [Berserker Armor] gives Yoruichi Yagami extremely strong endurance.

No matter how serious the injury, as long as you leave the battle, you can be 'fully revived' in just a few seconds.

Even if you run out of chakra, it's okay. Triggering the passive effect of [Scythe of Essence] a few times will restore a large amount of chakra.

The two combined can be described as a perpetual motion machine.

In addition, there is the infinite growth attribute of [Heart Steel].

Unfortunately, any attribute bonus from equipment is still subject to the limitations of 'slot'.

Before breaking through to the level of a demigod, Yoruichi Yagami's attribute cap was forever stuck at 999999 points, and no amount of equipment could break through this limit.

After stuffing six pieces of equipment into her secondary equipment slot, Yagami Yoruichi quickly felt the changes within herself.

"The sixtieth or so heroes have been completed, and there are still forty or so left..."

Yagami Yoruichi glanced at the system panel.

Having maxed out the skill proficiency of over sixty heroes brought Yagami Yoruichi a considerable amount of rewards.

However, most of the rewards are better than nothing and do not provide any significant boost to one's strength.

After all, those heroes with strong potential had already maxed out their skill proficiency with Yagami Yoruichi and received the rewards long ago.

The heroes I farmed later were all those with relatively low 'rank', so their potential was limited and the rewards they offered were naturally much lower.

The 'secondary equipment slot' awarded by Aphelios was quite a pleasant surprise.

"In six years, I've farmed over sixty heroes, averaging a dozen or so per year. I estimate it will take another three or four years to farm all the remaining heroes."

Yagami Yoruichi sighed, a hint of melancholy in his voice.

Nine years have passed since I came into this world.

The Konoha Twelve have reached graduation time.

In recent years, the ninja world has not changed much, but in many details, it is different from the original work.

Yoruichi Yagami's organization has also grown considerably.

Two years ago, the Hidden Cloud Village finally found Amado Sanzu, kidnapped him and his family, and sent them to a secret base designated by Yoruichi Yagami.

As promised, Yoruichi Yagami released the Fourth Raikage.

However, the two Jinchuriki were left in Yagami Yoruichi's hands, and occasionally some of the Tailed Beasts' chakra was extracted for research.

Currently, the most important research task for the research team led by Orochimaru and Amado Sanzu is the fusion of tailed beast chakra.

Perhaps because of the lack of the 'Gedo Mazo', although there were gains in the research on the tailed beast chakra, Yagami Yoruichi did not obtain the results she wanted regarding the 'Ten-Tails'.

Although somewhat disappointed, Yagami Yoruichi hadn't expected to achieve much in a short period of time anyway.

This path was originally just an experiment.

Even if the Ten-Tails were to be fused together, Yagami Yoruichi would not choose to become the Ten-Tails' jinchūriki, at least not the 'Ten-Tails' formed by the fusion of the nine tailed beasts of the ninja world.

After all, the Ten-Tails already has an owner. Once it becomes the Ten-Tails' Jinchūriki, it will immediately become the 'vessel' for Kaguya Otsutsuki's resurrection.

This is a risk that Yagami Yoruichi is unwilling to take.

Over the course of six years, Yoruichi Yagami's strength improved considerably, but she still failed to cross the threshold of demigod level, or rather, the Six Paths level.

The good news is that Yagami Yoichi has made some progress in several of the breakthrough paths he has tried.

The fusion of two completely opposite powers: Kyle and Morgana.

In addition, the "Six Paths Yang Power" and "Yin Yang Release" from the orthodox ninja path.

Yoruichi Yagami has made considerable progress in all three areas.

If all goes well, perhaps a burst of inspiration will allow me to overcome this bottleneck and advance to the sixth level.

After purchasing the Blade of the Ruined King and strengthening the 'Black Mist Domain', Yoruichi Yagami can also advance to demigod status through this route at a relatively low 'cost'.

According to Yagami Yoruichi's sense of the situation, slaughtering half of the ninja world would be enough.

Compared to the original requirement of slaughtering the entire ninja world, this price is already very low.

However, considering that there are still many 'masterminds' in this ninja world, and that Yagami Yoruichi is unwilling to carry out such a large-scale killing without reason.

After hesitating for a few minutes, Yagami Yoruichi suppressed the impulse in her heart.

"If we endure for a few more years, one of those three paths will eventually lead to success. If we're lucky, it will only take a few days; if we're slower, a few years should be enough."

Yagami Yoruichi muttered to himself as he sensed the surroundings of Konoha Village.

Yoruichi Yagami has now maxed out the skill proficiency of over eighty heroes, earning the full rewards.

Many of them possess sensory abilities.

With the support of these hero templates and skills, Yagami Yoruichi's perception ability has reached an astonishing level.

Without any skills or ninjutsu, a single thought can bring the entire Hidden Leaf Village into his perception range.

Seeing Tsunade slacking off in the Hokage's office, Yagami Yoruichi smiled slightly.

Several years ago, Tsunade became the Fifth Hokage.

The reason for bringing it up so far in advance is naturally because of Yoruichi Yagami.

Although Yoruichi Yagami hardly interferes in anything in Konoha, her strength alone, simply by living in Konoha, naturally has a great impact on all aspects of the village.

Of all the ninjas in Konoha who were qualified to inherit the Hokage position, Yagami Yoruichi only showed goodwill towards Tsunade.

Therefore, those ninja clans who knew Yagami Yoruichi's strength and believed that they had received Yagami Yoruichi's 'instruction' spontaneously began to promote Tsunade.

In just a few years, Tsunade's prestige soared to the point that it would be somewhat undignified for her not to succeed as Hokage, forcing her to don the white robe and become the Fifth Hokage.

Although Tsunade was somewhat coerced into taking office, after becoming Hokage, she did promote a series of reforms and eliminated many of the problems that existed during the Third Hokage's era.

One of the most impactful events was the revelation of Naruto Uzumaki's identity as the "son of the Fourth Hokage," and the subsequent handing of Naruto over to Jiraiya for training.

This allowed Naruto Uzumaki to receive better training and was no longer the loser who couldn't even use the Shadow Clone Technique properly in the original work.

He even became one of the most competitive talents in his cohort.

The Uchiha clan was spared the tragedy of the 'Night of Clan Extermination' because Danzo Shimura died early and Tsunade succeeded him as the Fifth Hokage.

With Yagami Yoruichi supporting Tsunade, the Uchiha clan naturally wouldn't be tempted to stage a coup, which actually made Konoha much more peaceful.

Without a major coup, Fugaku and Itachi had more time to guide Sasuke's training, allowing him to improve his strength much faster than in the original story.

However, despite becoming even stronger, this pair of chosen ones still couldn't secure the position of 'top student'.

In this year's Class A, there are two 'monsters' personally mentored by Yoruichi Yagami, who take turns holding the number one spot.

Others don't even have the right to compete with them.

Karin Uzumaki, Hinata Hyuga.

The former inherited the Uzumaki clan's extraordinary physique, making him even stronger than Naruto Uzumaki, who was the Nine-Tails' Jinchuriki.

In fourth grade, she awakened two major abilities: 'physical healing' and 'Kagura's Mind's Eye'.

Coupled with his exaggerated chakra reserves, and thanks to Tobirama Senju's version of "Sea Release" taught by Yoruichi Yagami, he already possessed the strength of a Jonin before even graduating from the Ninja Academy.

Hinata Hyuga's growth was equally remarkable.

Having developed her 'big eater' attribute early on, her physique and chakra reserves far exceed those in the original work.

Although she is not on the same level as monsters like Karin and Naruto, she is still far above the average level of the Hyuga clan.

Furthermore, under the tutelage of Yagami Yoruichi from a young age, she did not follow the path of Gentle Fist, but instead began to train in Lightning Release.

After activating his Byakugan, he displayed an unparalleled level of archery skill.

He excels in melee combat using Lightning Release Chakra Mode and in long-range sniping using Chidori Stream combined with an arrow.

In this year's Ninja Academy, apart from Karin Uzumaki, no one could withstand a single blow from Hinata Hyuga.

"But these two guys are too strong, it's hard to even assign them to classes."

Yagami Yoruichi's lips curled slightly upward as he sensed the direction of the Ninja Academy.

Seeing that the 'graduation exam' at the Ninja Academy had ended, Yagami Yoruichi activated the Flying Thunder God Technique and appeared at the entrance of the Ninja Academy.

Not long after Yagami Yoruichi arrived at the entrance of the Ninja Academy, an Anbu member rushed over in a flash, bowed respectfully to Yagami Yoruichi, and said, "Lord Yoruichi, the Hokage asked me to bring you a message. She has something to discuss with you tonight."

If Hiruzen Sarutobi were in power, Yoruichi Yagami wouldn't bother with it at all.

But once Tsunade became Hokage, as long as it wasn't too troublesome, Yoruichi Yagami would still help if she could.

Hearing the words from the Anbu, Yagami Yoruichi knew that Tsunade wanted to order her around again, so she nodded and said, "I understand."

Chapter 242 The Team Leader? The Third Student's Choice

After waiting for a few minutes, Karin Uzumaki and Hinata Hyuga walked out of the Ninja Academy together.

Hinata Hyuga was also holding the hand of a little girl who was clearly several years younger.

It is Hinata Hanabi, who is currently in the first grade.
