Konoha: From the moment I was adopted by Tsunade

Chapter 190 Kaguya-hime, the All-Powerful Card

Mt. Miaomu.

The Toad Sage and the White Snake Sage revealed themselves.

They were all heavy-hearted.

Today's defeat was truly unexpected.

"The emperor of our ancestral kingdom, we underestimated him."

The Toad Sage's toad face was extremely stiff. "His strength is no less than ours."

The White Snake Immortal glanced at it.

Based on their performances just now, Natsume in Sage Mode actually surpassed them.

After all, they are still young and have not yet reached their peak.

Regardless, Kaguya Otsutsuki had a servant by her side who was no less powerful than the three great sages.

This made her situation even more difficult.

"After the seven gods died, our companions became even fewer."

The toad sage sighed, somewhat despairing.

The number of gods was already small, and with seven of them dying at once, they could no longer cause any more trouble.

The three holy sites are indeed highly prestigious and famous.

But when faced with the threat of death, can the remaining gods still obey their commands?

What if some deities also had similar thoughts to the Slug Sage, believing that Kaguya Otsutsuki possessed a benevolent nature?

"What should we do now?"

The White Snake Immortal was even more distressed by the death of one of his elite clansmen than the Toad Immortal.

"Kaguya Otsutsuki is already very difficult to stop."

The Toad Sage pondered for a moment and said, "First, reduce the number of her goddess army as much as possible. Second, use the Emperor as a template to study new models. Third, wait for Kaguya Otsutsuki's two sons to grow up. Fourth, find another member of the Otsutsuki clan."

"That's all we can do."

The White Snake Immortal nodded and said.

The country of the ancestors.

Natsume returned to the palace.

With the Toad Immortal and the White Snake Immortal fleeing, and the seven gods including the Tree God dead, the Goddess Army naturally faced no further obstacles.

However, considering that Kentaro and the others were injured, he ordered them to rest for a while and recruit new players.

[Because of your actions, the fates of the Toad Sage, the White Snake Sage, and the Slug Sage have changed. You have gained a total of forty Fate Points.]

Huh, why is a slug fairy suddenly appearing?

Natsume stroked his chin; he had only seen the Toad Sage and the White Snake Sage.

Could it be Sage Mode?

Thinking about it carefully, this thing definitely only came into existence after chakra appeared.

After all, it requires mixing chakra, and there was no chakra at all before.

In other words, he may have provided creative inspiration for the three immortals.

It has to be said, fate is quite amazing.

Natsume glanced at Kaguya Otsutsuki and thought of a question: Could she learn Sage Mode?

Hmm, I don't think so.

Sage Chakra is the product of natural energy, physical energy, and spiritual energy being in equal proportion.

Kaguya Otsutsuki had so much chakra that it was impossible to find an equal amount of natural energy to maintain balance.

Furthermore, Natsume suspects that the Divine Tree is actually an aggregate of chakra and natural energy.

He had already reached the pinnacle of power without needing Sage Mode.

Hagoromo Otsutsuki and Hamura Otsutsuki are different.

Their chakra reserves are limited compared to Kaguya Otsutsuki.

"Mom! Teacher!"

Hamura Otsutsuki waved to them enthusiastically.

"How is the situation?"

Hagoromo Otsutsuki looked the two of them over and asked.

"Of course, there is no problem at all."

Natsume patted the two people on the shoulders with his left and right hands respectively.

Yes, men don't touch each other's heads.

Moreover, both of them have horns on their heads.

If it were Kaguya Otsutsuki, he would be willing to give it a try.

Two horns, they're natural... cough cough.

Did you read any books today?

Natsume glanced at the sky and asked.

"this……"

Otsutsuki Hamura immediately began to stammer.

"Let's go now."

Hagoromo Otsutsuki pulled his younger brother along and turned to leave.

Natsume smiled with satisfaction.

So what if he's a Sage of Six Paths?

I'd better just be a good student.

Half a month later, the Goddess Army continued its expedition and conquered several nearby countries.

The population nearly doubled, reaching 30,000.

At the same time, the number of ninjas also increased to five thousand.

This ratio is quite good.

The palace of the ancestral country.

"Daimyo."

Kentaro knelt on one knee and said with a heavy expression, "We have been attacked by wild beasts many times recently, especially snakes, which has caused us to lose a lot of manpower."

This is clearly retaliation from the three holy lands.

Oh no, it should be Toad Sage and White Snake Sage.

Kentaro and his companions' strength increased too slowly, so they were naturally no match for them.

This wasn't due to Natsume's limitations, but rather because they were converted from indigenous people and lacked natural talent.

After a few more generations, their talent will improve significantly.

But there is a way.

Combat can quickly increase your strength.

"Go back first and wait for the SkyNet login client to be updated."

Natsume waved his hand and said.

"yes!"

Kentaro's expression immediately brightened upon hearing the word "Skynet".

Natsume got up and went back to his room.

This method requires the cooperation of Kaguya Otsutsuki.

"Your Highness, Goddess."

Natsume knocked on the door and entered.

"What is it?"

Kaguya Otsutsuki already knew him quite well, so she asked the question quite naturally.

She herself did not realize that what she had done to this servant was beyond imagination.

So much so that the two of them didn't seem like master and servant.

"I plan to launch new features for Skynet."

Natsume explained, "It's mainly to deal with the three holy lands."

The three holy sites are located in an unknown alternate dimension.

Even Kaguya Otsutsuki would have to expend a lot of energy to find them.

Since that's the case, we might as well use them for training.

"The first feature is team formation."

Natsume observed her expression and, seeing that she didn't react much, said, "Ninjas aren't suited to the military model. Squads are more flexible. We can further subdivide them into two classes: one for attack and one for support."

"What am I supposed to do?"

Kaguya Otsutsuki looked at him and asked.

"It's about adding a squad channel to the launcher, where only they can see the messages exchanged."

Natsume answered immediately.

"Is there anything else?"

Kaguya Otsutsuki nodded and then asked.

Natsume's heart skipped a beat.

They are so well-behaved.

It gave him an urge to pat her head.

"The second function is to make someone a red name (indicating a negative online reputation)."

Natsume smiled at her expressionless face and said, "I want to add a detection and recording function to the launcher. Once an enemy has appeared once, it will turn into a red name the next time it appears, and then alert the player."

"Can."

Kaguya Otsutsuki pondered for a moment.

This essentially uses the sacred tree as a server to store data.

It is a living thing, so it is possible.

"The third function is recycling."

Natsume thought for a moment and asked, "Can the Divine Tree recover chakra and natural energy from corpses after death through the login device?"

"no problem."

Kaguya Otsutsuki added, "The Divine Tree has been absorbing the energy of this planet, including the corpse you mentioned."

Natsume was slightly taken aback.

He did have some suspicions.

However, the fact that Kaguya Otsutsuki was able to tell him this proved that his status had risen even further.

Congratulations.

"Recycling is not the goal."

Natsume paused for a moment, then said, "I hope the Divine Tree can return a portion of its chakra to the players as a reward."

Kaguya Otsutsuki's eyes narrowed, and she immediately stared at him.

He looked like a squirrel afraid someone would steal his pine cones.

He was very dissatisfied, and there was a hint of resentment in his expression.

If you add pouting and acting cute, that would be the ultimate weapon.

But paired with this aloof appearance, it's not bad either, it has a unique charm.

Natsume's inner impulse resurfaced.

"What we give to the players will eventually come back to us."

He licked his lips and explained, "Don't worry about temporary gains or losses; you should look at the big picture. I think that so far, your income is greater than your expenses."

Kaguya Otsutsuki's expression softened slightly upon hearing this.

Just as Natsume said, she did make a profit.

And it's not just a little bit, but several times more.

The main thing is that all she needs to do is give up a small chakra seed.

You can break even in less than six months, and the rest is all profit.

Kaguya Otsutsuki looked at Natsume, her snow-white eyes revealing a rare complex emotion.

She understood the reasoning, but she couldn't bear to part with it.

"Your Highness, the Goddess?"

Natsume coughed lightly, and said as if coaxing a child, "I promise I'll earn it back in no time. If not, you can use my chakra to pay off the debt first."

Anyway, after more than two years, his immortal body has almost fully recovered.

"What's yours was always mine."

Kaguya Otsutsuki tilted her head and said softly.

What kind of domineering CEO speech is this?

Natsume smiled and said, "Okay, it's all yours, but you reap what you sow."

Kaguya Otsutsuki sized him up for a moment, and finally nodded.

Although she felt a pang of heartache, for some reason, she didn't want to see Natsume looking disappointed.

"Your Highness, you are truly wise!"

Natsume gave a thumbs up and praised.

Is it wise?

Kaguya Otsutsuki nodded nonchalantly and asked, "Is there anything else?"

That's all for now.

Natsume waved his hand and said, "These points are enough to motivate them to deal with those snakes and toads."

a new day.

The area in front of the palace square of the Ancestral Kingdom was extremely lively.

"Assault team, need a pharmacist!"

"Renowned veteran Yuta Uesugi leads the team; your safety is guaranteed!"

"We're one short for the game, hurry up! Once we're full, we can start the dungeon!"

"We'll split the profits, but we're missing a powerful offensive ninja!"

After the new version update, they immediately started forming teams freely.

Natsume did not strictly adhere to the three-part structure of the ninja squad, but instead let them decide for themselves.

However, suggestions were given, such as maintaining a reasonable ratio between attack ninjas and support ninjas.

Among them, pharmacists are a rather special profession.

Because becoming a medical ninja is really difficult, Natsume settled for a less demanding path and became a pharmacist.

It's like being a doctor in a past life.

In critical moments, they can still save lives, though they're a bit slower than medical ninjas.

After a week of team formation, the Goddess Army set off for their next country, the Maple Kingdom.

This time, everyone split into smaller groups, forming small teams, and went deep behind enemy lines.

Both the Toad Immortal and the White Snake Immortal were a little confused.

To be honest, they don't have as many people as you might imagine.

In the past, the Goddess Army gathered together, making it very convenient to launch attacks.

But now it's more complicated, and we have no choice but to split up.

A forest somewhere.

Kentaro's squad is moving forward.

There are seven people in total.

Kentaro's reputation attracted many elites.

There is even a rare medical ninja.

"Captain, you have a red name."

Someone immediately commented in the team chat.

"Sensory Ninja".

Kentaro spoke using thought waves, or mental typing.

"It's the giant snake that killed many of us last time."

A moment later, a sentence popped up in the channel.

"Prepare a trap, let's go! With a creature this big, Her Highness will definitely give us a lot of chakra!"

Kentaro's face lit up with excitement.

The same applies to the rest of the people.

They were afraid before, but now they are eager to try.

It's all because of the new version of Natsume's Book of Friends.

This has turned the giant snake into a hot commodity.

In their view, it's a reward for walking.

time flies.

The giant snake quickly caught up with them, and with a sudden burst of speed, it opened its massive jaws and charged towards the crowd.

Bang bang bang.

All seven people turned into smoke.

It's a clone technique.

The giant snake doesn't understand ninjutsu, nor does it have the Byakugan. Even the most basic ninjutsu is difficult for it to see through.

And most importantly, it didn't take Kentaro and the others seriously.

The giant snake was somewhat bewildered after its attack missed.

Just then, an explosive tag floated down from the tree.

With a loud bang.

Sparks flew everywhere.

The giant snake couldn't help but scream in agony.

But it is not dead yet.

Then the ground suddenly dropped.

In its excruciating pain, it had no way to escape and fell straight into the pit.

Then he was pierced by countless sharp, upright knives, and blood flowed freely.

Seeing this, Kentaro and the others finally came out.

However, the red name on the SkyNet login client has not disappeared, proving that it is not dead yet.

They didn't approach, but began throwing ninja tools and using ninjutsu.

The giant snake struggled desperately, its tail whipping wildly, but it couldn't reach them.

Ultimately, it lost its life.

"Yay!"

Kentaro clenched his fist.

It's so easy!

Its main contribution is the red name function.

They discovered the giant snake beforehand, and since they were caught off guard, they naturally agreed.

"Recycle it."

Kentaro stretched out his arm, as did the others.

The giant serpent's body was instantly enveloped in light, gradually decomposing into the purest energy, which then entered the bracelet.

"I received one hundred taels of chakra currency."

Kentaro looked ecstatic.

"I only have seventy taels."

"..."

"My minimum is forty taels."

"This should be allocated based on the contribution value in this battle."

Kentaro said in a deep voice, "Let's all do our best next time."

"Let's go! Captain, let's continue!"

The others said excitedly.

Similar experiences to Kentaro's are constantly unfolding.

Three months later, at Mount Myoboku.

There's a problem.

The Toad Immortal was heartbroken. "We've lost too many of our people during this time."

"They seem to have some way of sensing our presence in advance."

The White Snake Immortal's face was gloomy as he said, "If this continues, more than half of our people from the three holy lands will die. It's not worth it."

"Let's give up for now."

The Toad Sage sighed deeply and said, "Let's prioritize the other two methods."

At this moment, it felt as if it wanted to skin Natsume alive and tear him apart.

But he was protected too well by Kaguya Otsutsuki.

They had no chance of getting close to him, let alone dealing with him.

The country of the ancestors.

If we're talking about who was the happiest during this period, it would naturally be Kaguya Otsutsuki.

Those snakes and toads contributed a lot of energy.

She was quite satisfied.

All of Natsume's previous predictions have come true.

It definitely broke even and made a huge profit.

"mom!"

Hamura Otsutsuki rushed into the room. "Look at what this book says. If you don't have a biological father, you can have a stepfather, as long as the two people love each other."

"What are you trying to say?"

Kaguya Otsutsuki looked at him and asked.

Do you like your teacher?

With an expectant look, Ōtsutsuki Hamura asked, "If you like it, then you can be my dad, teacher!"

"..."

Kaguya Otsutsuki remained silent.

She didn't know what liking someone meant, but it seemed like she could learn about it.

Four thousand words. Three chapters totaling twelve thousand words, the extra chapters are for monthly votes.
