Konoha's Hextech Ninja

Yagami Yoruichi's six-piece set only cost 1.81 gold coins.

Twenty attribute forging tools would cost 15,000 gold coins.

This is just the cost of one Prism attribute occurrence based on the 'average probability'.

If the price is too high, then M will need even more.

"15,000 gold coins, at 200 gold coins per enemy ninja, would require 75 kills. And 15,000 gold coins only represents the average probability of getting one colored attribute. I remember that for a 21 billion Rui Heavenly Emperor, at least a dozen percentage-based life attributes would be needed, which would be thousands of people."

Yoruichi Yagami did a quick calculation and immediately felt a headache coming on: "Unless a major ninja war breaks out, it's impossible to raise this much money. And this is just forging equipment; there are so many other places where money will be spent later, like creating hero templates and summoning servants..."

"Since things have come to this, let's leave it at that for now."

Yagami Yoruichi shook his head.

The Great Shinobi World War is destined to break out, and it is only possible to stop it if Hashirama Senju is resurrected.

Of course, perhaps she could have that strength if she waited a few years until Yoruichi Yagami's attribute growth cycle ended and her stats reached their peak.

But Yoruichi Yagami had no interest in doing that.

Yoruichi Yagami's pursuit is ultimate strength.

In this process, Yagami Yoruichi will try to change the extremely bad system and environment of the ninja world as much as she can.

But this does not mean that Yoruichi Yagami will act like a saint and save everyone.

Change is inherently accompanied by bloodshed.

As long as the bleeding isn't caused by someone Yoruichi Yagami cares about, no matter how many people die, Yoruichi won't be too emotionally affected.

If they are enemies, it would be better if they were all killed.

"I wonder how much longer this mission will take."

"At my current rate of attribute improvement, I might be able to reach the top tier of the 'Kage' level by the time I return to the village."

"If that old bastard Danzo comes looking for trouble, should I just kill him outright, or should I just kill him outright?"

Countless thoughts arose in Yagami Yoruichi's mind.

After a while, Yagami Yoruichi cleared her mind of all distractions, closed the system interface, and focused her attention on the sealing scroll that Tsunade had given her.

This place contains various books related to sealing techniques, as well as a large number of sealing technique formulas.

According to Tsunade, one must master all of this knowledge in order to reach the threshold for cultivating the 'Yin Seal'.

Yagami Yoruichi still has an interest in the 'Yin Seal'.

The ability to store chakra is better than nothing for Yoruichi Yagami, who has no shortage of chakra.

However, another characteristic of the Yin Seal, which is to maintain youth forever, is something that Yagami Yoruichi values ​​highly.

It could even be said that the vast majority of people in the ninja world, especially female ninjas, care a lot about this characteristic.

However, the extremely high cultivation threshold and even higher qualification restrictions of the Yin Seal mean that the vast majority of people are simply not qualified to even come into contact with it.

"I'll have to find a chance to talk to the teacher about letting Hong learn the Yin Seal later. I just don't know if she can learn it. If not, I'll try to modify it to reduce the difficulty as much as possible. Even if we give up the combat bonus and only keep the eternal youth characteristic, that would be fine."

With that thought in mind, Yagami Yoruichi opened the sealing scroll.

A large pile of books fell into the room. Yagami Yoruichi created several shadow clones, each of whom picked up a book and began to read it carefully.

Learning can certainly be painful.

However, the process of learning powerful ninjutsu and improving one's strength after successfully mastering knowledge brings a strong sense of satisfaction.

Logically speaking, with her current strength, Yagami Yoruichi no longer needs to spend a lot of time learning these basics.

As long as you continuously improve your chakra control, you can learn more ninjutsu with lower skill thresholds.

With the continued support of the system's cheat codes, Yagami Yoruichi can easily become invincible in the ninja world.

However, over time, Yoruichi Yagami has become accustomed to this process of continuous learning and improvement, and she does not reject it.

Sealing techniques, known as the 'lower code' of the ninja world, have always been of great interest to Yagami Yoruichi.

As for the pain of the learning process...

Well, the so-called ninja is someone who endures what others cannot.

What's a little suffering if you want to become stronger?

……

The country of Sichuan.

Orochimaru sat in the palace.

A Root ninja arrived.

"Orochimaru." The Root ninja's tone was completely flat, as rigid as a machine: "Lord Danzo is very dissatisfied with what's happening here. What exactly happened?!"

"Watch your attitude. Without me, you bunch of good-for-nothings wouldn't be able to control the Land of Rivers!"

Orochimaru's eyes flashed with a cold glint. After a brief warning, he said, "An unidentified ninja attacked the Land of Rivers. His purpose is also unclear. In short, that ninja is not simple. He is no match for me, but I cannot stop him from killing the Root ninja and escaping."

For reasons unknown, Orochimaru did not reveal Yoruichi Yagami's identity, simply referring to her as an "unknown ninja."

Anyway, the matter in the Land of Rivers can't be covered up. The one in trouble is Shimura Danzo, not Orochimaru.

After Shimura Danzo's interests are further damaged, he may become even more dependent on Orochimaru, and then he may be able to get even more benefits from him.

The Root ninjas were very dissatisfied with Orochimaru's perfunctory attitude.

But he also knew that he had no way to deal with Orochimaru.

Furthermore, since Shimura Danzo had previously instructed him not to offend Orochimaru, and after repeatedly asking him without getting Orochimaru to open his mouth, he had no choice but to give up.

"Then what about the Land of Rivers here..." The Root ninja was about to say something more.

Orochimaru interrupted him directly, saying, "We can't hide it anymore. Unless we abandon our plans in the Land of Rivers and kill the current daimyo, our entire operation in the Land of Rivers will be ruined. Whether you tell the old man everything or abandon the Land of Rivers, go back and ask Danzo."

After a slight pause, Orochimaru continued, "I'm only giving Danzo one day. If he doesn't decide to abandon the Land of Rivers, I'll hand over the information to the old man tomorrow. Danzo and I are just cooperating; I don't want to be buried with him."

The difference between speaking out voluntarily and being reported by others or discovered by Hiruzen Sarutobi is enormous.

Orochimaru only cares about his own interests and doesn't consider what price Shimura Danzo will pay for them.

Chapter 119 Hiruzen Sarutobi: Are they treating me like an idiot?

While Yagami Yoruichi was focused on studying sealing techniques.

Tsunade had already informed Mitokado Homura about the possible connection between the events in the Land of Rivers and Shimura Danzo and Orochimaru.

After a series of 'friendly exchanges,' Mitokado Homura gained a full understanding of Tsunade's position.

“I understand. Since you have determined that Orochimaru is untrustworthy, I will send people to investigate again.”

Mitokado Homura nodded and said, "Tsunade, don't worry. I won't let anyone who wants to harm Konoha get away with it. Even Danzo... I won't show any mercy. If Hiruzen tries to protect Danzo, I will argue with him on the side of reason."

The phrase 'to argue based on reason' is used very aptly.

Anyway, I did my best.

As for how effective it will be, let's leave that to fate!

Tsunade understood Mitokado Homura's subtext and was very dissatisfied.

But she also knew that it was impossible to get any further promises.

Mitokado Homura's personality has always been like this. Although he would compete for power with Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo, he would back down if the other party was a bit tough.

Perhaps when it comes to the village, Mitomon Enzō dared to go against Shimura Danzō.

However, as long as Hiruzen Sarutobi expresses his opinion, Mitokado Enoki will usually back down decisively.

It was already quite remarkable that they managed to get Mitokado Homura to agree to a reinvestigation and testify against Shimura Danzo after confirming the information.

"That's all for now." Tsunade turned and prepared to leave.

She didn't know why, but after listening to Yagami Yoruichi talk about things in the Land of Rivers, she chose to believe everything he said without verifying it.

But since he was going to help his disciple clean up the mess, he naturally had to do it well.

Mitokado's case alone is not enough; we need the support of many more people.

"and many more."

Mitokado Homura suddenly called out to Tsunade, saying, "Tsunade, if it's really as you say, with Orochimaru personally overseeing the Land of Rivers, sending ordinary ninjas is just sending them to their deaths..."

Before Mitokado Homura could finish speaking, Tsunade guessed his meaning and said directly, "You know about my hemophobia. If other ninjas go to their deaths, do you think I can defeat Orochimaru?"

A hint of surprise flashed across Mitokado Homura's face as he asked, "You and Orochimaru are teammates after all. Even if he's ruthless, he wouldn't go so far as to harm you, would he?"

"Ever since that incident, Orochimaru is now..."

Tsunade shook her head, said no more, and left the command room.

"Ugh, this is such a hassle."

Mitomon sighed helplessly, pondering who could shoulder the heavy responsibility of verifying the authenticity of the information from the Land of Rivers.

If Danzo Shimura really did get together with Orochimaru and disregarded all taboos, he would have attacked his own village's ninjas.

There are very few ninjas in the entire Hidden Leaf Village who can obtain information from them and escape unscathed.

As for whether Orochimaru and Shimura Danzo would be so ruthless, Mitokado En never doubted the ruthlessness of his old classmate.

The number of Konoha ninja who died at the hands of Shimura Danzo and his Root subordinates far exceeded the number of ninja from other villages!

There are quite a few Jonin in the front-line camps now.

However, it's really difficult to choose a suitable team that can protect itself from the combined attacks of Orochimaru and the Root ninjas.

"Tsunade has really given me a tough problem."

……

The border of the Land of Water.

Jiraiya and Kakashi Hatake fled in disarray. Once ashore, Jiraiya immediately shouted for backup.

Koharu and Fugaku Uchiha quickly led the ninjas from the camp over there.

A moment later, Minato Namikaze appeared beside Jiraiya, covered in injuries and looking utterly disheveled.

On the distant sea, amidst the faint mist, a figure could be seen appearing and disappearing.

The figure watched the Konoha ninja formation from afar, without approaching.

He stood on the sea for a moment, then turned and left.

But that invisible pressure came from all the ninjas in the entire area.

After a long while, Jiraiya plopped down on the ground, a look of relief on his face, and muttered, "When did the Land of Water produce such a powerful ninja? Even the Third Mizukage didn't put this much pressure on me!"

"I almost... died..." Kakashi's eyes were bloodshot as he looked at the broken sword in his hand, now only the hilt remaining, with heartache. He looked up at Minato Namikaze and asked, "Master, who was that?"

“I don’t know…” Minato Namikaze wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, shook his head and said, “He didn’t want to kill me, otherwise I wouldn’t have come back. Now I understand why the Second Hokage, who mastered the Flying Thunder God Technique, still sacrificed himself on the battlefield…”

"Jiraiya, Minato!"

It was only then that Xiaochun came to her senses and rushed to the three of them to check on their condition.

Not far away, Uchiha Fugaku stared blankly in the direction where the figure on the sea had disappeared.

"There's no mistake... That's the Sharingan's power! And its power far surpasses mine!" Uchiha Fugaku was filled with surprise and fear, but even more so with bewilderment: "Could there be Uchiha clans wandering outside the ninja world? Who could it be?"

……

The Land of Wind.

Sakumo Hatake's squad was surrounded by more than a dozen Sunagakure ninja.

"It would be easy for me to break through, but for the others..."

Sakumo Hatake weighed the strength of both sides in his mind, quickly made a judgment, sheathed his sword, and said to the Sand Village ninja in front of him: "This is a misunderstanding. Let's leave the Land of Wind now."

"Lord Sakumo!" one of the ninjas couldn't help but speak up.

"Shut up!" Hatake Sakumo snapped. "The mission has failed, so abandon it and I'll take full responsibility!"

……

The country of Sichuan.
