Konoha's Hextech Ninja

"Let's leave this to Kakashi, or return it to the Uchiha clan." Yagami Yoruichi didn't have much interest in this Kamui Sharingan.

Kamui's eye technique is very powerful.

However, given Yagami Yoruichi's control over spatial abilities, he doesn't need such a visual technique.

Even if it were given to someone else, it wouldn't threaten Yagami Yoruichi, so Yagami Yoruichi didn't care much.

"Next, we will conquer the ninja world and capture the Jinchuriki."

Yoruichi Yagami pondered her next steps.

Whether Yoruichi Yagami intervenes or not will not have a significant impact on the overall situation.

Orochimaru's army of tainted earth was enough to wipe out the other major ninja villages.

The only purpose of having Yoruichi Yagami participate in the battle is to reduce casualties and at the same time farm some system rewards.

Yoruichi Yagami doesn't seem to lack gold coins.

The attribute bonus from the [Crown Dragon] is now so low that even adding tens of thousands of layers won't significantly increase its strength.

However, the ability [Glorious Evolution] allows Yoruichi Yagami to obtain corresponding [Hextech Shards] in exchange for rewards such as coins and [Diablos] when participating in kills.

This thing is still very useful.

Its ability to replace almost any material gives it extremely high value.

For example, some extremely rare materials in the ninja world, or special materials that are essential for certain systems in the League of Legends world, etc.

If there are enough Hextech Shards, they can significantly accelerate Yoruichi Yagami's power increase and even advance the development of the entire ninja world.

In addition, as long as there are enough Hextech Shards, Yoruichi Yagami can also find ways to improve the strength of those around her.

For example, Kurenai Yuhi is limited by her natural talent. Even with Yoruichi Yagami investing a lot of resources to help her, she can only barely reach the threshold of Kage level at most, and it is almost impossible for her to go any higher.

However, with the Hextech Shard, Yoruichi Yagami can set up the Ascension Ritual or create Hextech Gear suitable for Kurenai Yuhi to enhance her strength.

"Even for the sake of the Hextech Shards, unifying the ninja world is necessary."

"However, let's leave the initial preparations to the daimyo."

"After all, my goal is to rule the ninja world for a long time and promote its development, not to destroy it. I can't just think about war; the aftermath of war must also be properly arranged."

"The preliminary preparations have been going on for a long time, and it will be completed in a short time."

"Hmm, let's wait a bit longer. We'll make our move after the Chunin Exams are over."

As Yagami Yoruichi thought of his students, a slight smile appeared on his face.

This Chunin Exam can be considered an opportunity for them to make a name for themselves in the ninja world.

Once the Land of Fire unifies the ninja world and implements significant reforms, the ninja profession will transform from the previous 'mercenary' roles into a force dedicated to protecting the order of the ninja world.

The traditional outsourced employment model will also be changed.

Making a name for yourself in the ninja world again will be much more difficult.

"The third round is about to begin, we just have to wait a while."

Yagami Yoruichi stopped thinking about the future and turned her attention back to reality. She expanded her senses to search for a while and immediately activated teleportation to Kurenai Yuhi's house.

……

A few days later.

The second round of the Chunin Exams has ended.

Because there were too many people who passed, an additional round was held to determine the final list of those who could participate in the third round of individual battles.

Underhanded dealings are, of course, unavoidable.

All the draws were decided in advance.

Even so, those who made it to the third round of individual battles were the most outstanding geniuses among the younger generation of ninjas.

Yoruichi Yagami didn't pay much attention to the final list, only glancing at the divisions.

According to the current match-up, barring any major surprises, the final four will be Shion, Karin Uzumaki, Hinata Hyuga, and Yakumo Kurama.

"No one can beat them unless they meet them earlier."

Holding the battle list, Tsunade smiled and said, "Your four students are all incredibly strong. Especially Shion; even if I went up against her myself, I wouldn't be confident I could defeat her."

"No need to estimate, if you don't use the Hundred Healings Technique, you definitely won't be a match for Shion." Yagami Yoruichi didn't give Tsunade any face at all: "Even if you use the Hundred Healings Technique, you'll only have a 20% chance of winning at most. Your strengths are recovery and endurance, but your explosive power isn't outstanding, and you lack long-range attack methods, which is exactly the type that Shion counters."

"You bastard!" Tsunade glared at Yoruichi Yagami, but couldn't find a rebuttal.

Shion's abilities are indeed her natural counter.

In terms of attrition, Shion's Netherworld Legion has a much stronger ability to sustain itself than her medical ninjutsu.

Medical ninjutsu also consumes chakra, and too many cell divisions can affect lifespan.

The Netherworld Legion is indestructible and cannot be destroyed; even if its body is crushed into powder, it will gradually regenerate.

The most incredible thing is that this process does not require Ziyuan to actively control it, nor does it require any consumption of Ziyuan's power.

There is no other way to deal with them except by sealing techniques.

To deal with Ziyuan, one must either possess exceptional speed and agility, capable of circumventing the Netherworld Legion's blockade.

Or they are extremely skilled at long-range attacks.

In short, the core strategy is to avoid getting entangled with the Netherworld Legion and directly confront Shion's main body.

Among the five Kage of this generation, only the Third Tsuchikage, Onoki, and the Fourth Raikage, A, possess this ability.

"Oh, right." Tsunade suddenly remembered something and said, "The Kirihid Village team has already left, so they should know what you did in Kirihid Village. If we send people to pursue them now, it's not too late."

“No need.” Yagami Yoruichi shook his head and said, “Let them mobilize as many troops as possible and wipe them out in one go. We also need to make some noise in the other ninja villages to put them on their guard.”

This was the last war before unifying the ninja world.

This is also Yagami Yoruichi's last chance in this world to farm system rewards on a large scale.

The more enemies, the better.

Only by completely destroying the other ninja villages in one fell swoop can order be rebuilt on the ruins.

Seeing Yoruichi Yagami's attitude, Tsunade didn't say much, only reminding her, "Tell your students not to fight too hard in the ring. The quarterfinals are basically all our own people from Konoha."

In this Chunin Exam, Gaara and Fu, the strongest contestants from other ninja villages, were eliminated early by Shion and Karin Uzumaki.

Although there are some strong individuals in the teams of other ninja villages, their strength is no match for the geniuses of this generation from Konoha.

Among the top 16, there are also some participants from other ninja villages.

However, judging from their matchups, they are both destined to be eliminated in the first round.

For example, Omoi and Karui from Cloud Village, and Kurotsuchi from Rock Village, etc.

Their opponents in the first round were either Yagami Yoruichi's four students or the ninja world's orthodox 'saviors' Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha.

These geniuses are considered top talents in their respective ninja villages.

But they are in no way comparable to the most extraordinary group of geniuses in the ninja world this generation.

The quarterfinal matchups are quite interesting.

If nothing unexpected happens, in the quarterfinals, in the upper bracket, Shion will face Naruto Uzumaki, and Yakumo Kurama will face Sasuke Uchiha. The winners of these two matches will meet in the semifinals.

In the lower half of the bracket, Hinata Hyuga and Karin Uzumaki both easily defeated their respective opponents and will meet in the semifinals.

The competition in the lower half of the bracket is indeed much less intense than that in the upper half.

Their opponents are at best at the level of Hyuga Neji and Aburame Shino, and they pose no threat whatsoever.

"Only the semifinals, Karin vs. Hinata, were somewhat interesting; the rest were basically one-sided," Yagami Yoruichi commented.

Just by looking at the matchups, you can basically determine the final rankings.

Regardless of whether Karin Uzumaki or Hinata Hyuga wins, neither of them can defeat Shion in a one-on-one fight.

It's not that they lack talent, but rather that Shion's advantages are simply too great.

Unless they can develop their bloodline to an extremely high level and transform into true 'Otsutsuki', they will have no chance of winning against Shion.

"I plan to award the title of Chunin to all the contestants who make it to the top 16," Tsunade suggested. "This year's Chunin Exams are far more difficult than ever before. Those who can pass the second round are actually close to Jonin level in strength, and they are fully qualified to be awarded the title of Chunin."

"You can handle these things as you see fit." Yagami Yoruichi indicated that she didn't care, and then changed the subject: "We've got the Three-Tails and the Six-Tails, and next we need to capture the Four-Tails and the Five-Tails. I plan to send Minato and the others out, and then have Minato and Sasori go to Sunagakure Village along the way to bring Chiyo over."

In fact, with Madara Uchiha's Rinnegan, the 'Outer Path - Rinne Rebirth Technique' could be used to revive the Rope Tree.

However, Yoruichi Yagami herself doesn't know how to use these poisonous Rinnegan.

As for the others, it's unknown how long it will take for them to develop the power of the Rinnegan to the point where they can use the 'Outer Path Power'.

In comparison, Chiyo's forbidden technique, Reincarnation, is actually more convenient.

Tsunade understood what Yoruichi Yagami meant, nodded, and said, "I have prepared the materials for the revival of the Rope Tree."

"Should we revive the First Hokage, the Second Hokage, and Mito-senpai?" Yagami Yoruichi said. "My Yin-Yang Release can ensure that Chiyo won't die after using up her Reincarnation. By replenishing her life force, we can continue to revive people."

"Huh?" Tsunade was taken aback: "This works too?"

“Of course.” Yagami Yoruichi did not explain.

The 'Six Paths - Yang Power' ensures that Chiyo will not die after using Reincarnation, and then the Sprout of Creation replenishes her depleted life force. After resting for a while, Chiyo can use Reincarnation again to revive the dead.

Although it's a bit inefficient, it only takes a little time to bring all the important people back to life.

Yoruichi Yagami herself doesn't have any particular obsessions; at most, she just helps the people around her 'fulfill their dreams'.

Yoruichi Yagami has already consulted with Kurenai Yuhi and decided to revive her father-in-law, Shinku Yuhi.

As for Tsunade's family, that's just something that happens incidentally and won't take much effort.

"If it's possible..." Tsunade hesitated for a moment before tentatively asking, "Could you bring my grandfather and second grandfather back to life?"

"The first and second generation? Of course, no problem." Yagami Yoruichi nodded and said, "But there will be a queue, and it will take a while."

Tsunade's eyes lit up, and she exclaimed, "And Grandma Mito too!"

“Mito-senpai, that’s fine too.” Yagami Yoruichi nodded again.

Tsunade continued, "And Minato, Kushina..."

"Don't push your luck!" Yagami Yoruichi warned, a black line appearing on his forehead. "Absorbing life force is tiring for me too! You only have four spots here, not one more!"

Chapter 271 A Big Scene!

Shayin Village.

A small oasis somewhere outside the village.

Scorpion of the Red Sand looked at this familiar environment, a nostalgic expression appearing on her stiff face.

"Can a puppet really show such natural emotions?" Minato Namikaze looked surprised.

"My puppets are made from my own body and skin. Of course, I can make simple expressions." Sasori's tone contained a hint of pride.

Minato Namikaze was speechless, somewhat confused about what he was so proud of.

However, given Minato's emotional intelligence, he wouldn't say anything that would embarrass Scorpion. Instead, he changed the subject, saying, "Our mission is to take Chiyo away while leaving some clues to put Sunagakure on high alert. Do you have any good ideas?"

“There’s an old man with the old woman. Just leave him there,” Sasori of the Red Sand warned. “Don’t say I didn’t warn you. Both the old woman and the old man are very strong. And the old woman is also skilled in sealing techniques. Don’t think you’re safe just because you’re a reincarnated Edo Tensei.”

"Thank you, I'll be careful." Minato Namikaze nodded and walked into the oasis with Scorpion Akasago.

The oasis is small, just a secluded retreat for two retired elders.

But there were no shortage of guards.

The two walked into the oasis in a carefree manner without any attempt to conceal themselves, immediately alerting the guards.

Upon seeing the face of the Red Sand Scorpion, many of the older guards showed expressions of shock.

"This is..."

"Lord Scorpion!"

If Sasori of the Red Sand hadn't left Sunagakure on his own, the Fourth Kazekage would never have been Rasa.

Even after many years, the Red Sand Scorpion still enjoys a high reputation in Sunagakure Village.

Furthermore, due to his special relationship with Chiyo, Sunagakure did not classify Sasori of the Red Sand as a rogue ninja.
