Infinite: The Main God Space Starting from Naruto

Chapter 21 Orochimaru Returns

[Rank E Ninjutsu: Substitution Jutsu, identified as a normal skill, successfully retrieved, gaining 20 exchange points] The voice of the Supreme God echoed in the space, carrying a hint of mechanical coldness.

[Note: Each piece of knowledge exists only once in the Main God Space and can only be recorded once.]

Suddenly, Orochimaru's body trembled, and he felt as if an invisible hand had swept directly through his mind.

The process was completely painless and comfortable. Orochimaru nodded slightly, a satisfied smile playing on his lips. "So that's what it feels like to sell knowledge. How amazing."

Just then, the virtual screen in front of him flickered, and a brand new option appeared before his eyes:

[Skill: Substitution Jutsu]

[Level: None]

[Source: Ninja World]

[Prerequisite: Chakra Extraction Technique]

[Description: One of the simplest ninjutsu from the ninja world, it can create a substitute that perfectly matches one's appearance for a short time. The substitute has no physical form and will disappear once attacked. This technique can be used to confuse the enemy, creating an opportunity for escape or counterattack.]

[Exchange Points: 200]

Orochimaru's gaze fell on the exchange points for the Substitution Jutsu, and he raised an eyebrow slightly. "200 points? I only sell it for 20 points, but it costs 200 to exchange..."

He narrowed his eyes, staring intently at the number: "Interesting. This supreme god is truly a shrewd businessman."

"However, this also illustrates a point. The ninjutsu I sell has value in the eyes of the Supreme God. And..."

His gaze fell on the ninja tool pouch at his waist, a glint of light flashing in his eyes. "Master, I want to sell a kunai," Orochimaru said in a deep voice, his tone calm yet firm.

[Item: Kunai, identified as a common item, successfully recycled, 1 point gained] The voice of the Supreme God rang out again, devoid of emotion.

Orochimaru quickly glanced at the virtual screen, a slight smile playing on his lips. A new option had appeared in the shop's item list:

Item: Kunai

[Level: None]

[Source: Ninja World]

[Description: A throwing weapon commonly used by ninjas, shaped like an inverted triangle, used for close combat or ranged attacks.]

[Exchange Points: 5]

"Just as I thought." Orochimaru murmured, a calculating glint in his eyes. He quickly calculated in his mind, then made the exchange without hesitation.

The next moment, a brand new kunai appeared in Orochimaru's hand. He carefully examined the two weapons and found that they were of much higher quality than the one he had just sold.

It was obvious that this kunai, which he had obtained from the Main God Space, was far superior to his original one in both craftsmanship and materials.

"This means," Orochimaru's eyes flickered, his smile deepening, "that once I acquire certain rare and unique items, I can sell them to the Main God first, and then use points to buy multiple replicas. It's a bit expensive, but definitely not a bad deal!"

Orochimaru continued to recall the words of the main god, trying to find more clues. Suddenly, he remembered the main god's previous hint about selling knowledge.

"Each piece of knowledge exists only once? It can only be recorded once?" Orochimaru raised an eyebrow slightly, repeating the sentence thoughtfully.

"If every piece of knowledge is unique, then why does the Supreme God specifically emphasize 'it can only be recorded once'?" Orochimaru slowly paced, his gaze gradually deepening. "Unless..."

A bold conjecture suddenly flashed through his mind, and his pupils contracted slightly. "Unless, a world doesn't have only one participant. Perhaps, the supreme god also chooses others as reincarnation stones, and these others also sell knowledge to the supreme god."

To verify this idea, Orochimaru immediately asked the Supreme God, "Supreme God, is it possible for multiple reincarnators to exist in one world?"

Sorry, you do not have sufficient privileges to answer.

The divine response was concise and indifferent, offering no valuable information.

"Just as I thought." Orochimaru wasn't surprised; on the contrary, he was even more certain of his guess. He stared sharply at the huge ball of light in front of him, a playful smile playing on his lips.

"The reason why the Supreme God set the rule that knowledge is originally unique is perhaps to prevent different reincarnators from selling duplicate knowledge. Although I don't know what use the Supreme God has for these skills, as the first reincarnator in the ninja world, I must seize this opportunity."

Thinking of this, a glint flashed in Orochimaru's eyes, and he couldn't wait to start searching his mind for ninjutsu and knowledge that he could sell.

"God, I want to sell ninjutsu!"

[Rank E Ninjutsu: Transformation Technique, identified as a normal skill, successfully retrieved, gaining 20 exchange points]

[C-rank Ninjutsu: Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique, identified as a one-star skill, successfully retrieved, gaining 50 exchange points]

[C-rank Ninjutsu: Wind Release: Great Breakthrough, identified as a one-star skill, successfully retrieved, gaining 50 exchange points]

[Rank B Ninjutsu: Wind Release: Vacuum Giant Ball, identified as a one-star skill, successfully retrieved, gaining 100 exchange points]

[Rank A Sealing Technique: Five Elements Sealing, identified as a two-star skill, successfully retrieved, gaining 300 exchange points]

………………

With each mechanical voice from the main god, Orochimaru's ninjutsu knowledge was continuously absorbed, and his exchange points increased rapidly.

After Orochimaru sold most of the ninjutsu he possessed to the God Space, his exchange points reached a staggering 7!

Orochimaru nodded in satisfaction. As the prized student of Hiruzen Sarutobi, the professor of ninjutsu, and determined to learn all ninjutsu to uncover the truth of the ninja world, he possessed countless ninjutsu skills.

Now, this valuable knowledge has been transformed into exchange points in his hands, becoming his most powerful bargaining chip in this cycle of reincarnation.

Zhang Feng, who was behind the scenes, was overjoyed. He couldn't stop smiling as he watched his exchange points rise rapidly. The God Space would also receive a significant portion of the exchange points obtained from Orochimaru's sales.

In the God Realm, knowledge and items can be exchanged for points because they all possess a special kind of "world power".

Every independent world has its own unique laws and energy system. The ninja world has chakra, the pirate world has Devil Fruits; these are the special products of their respective worlds, containing unique powers specific to that world.

The Main God Space is like a huge energy recycling station.

When a reincarnator personally offers a world's specialty to the supreme god, the supreme god can extract that precious "world power" from it and transform it into energy for the operation of space.

The points earned by those who reincarnate are actually the portion of energy allocated to them by the Supreme God. The Supreme God, in turn, pockets all the remaining energy to maintain the stability and expansion of the space.

Furthermore, this energy possesses extremely powerful versatility, capable of creating and transforming into almost any substance. This explains why the Main God Space can exchange for items.

Zhang Feng quickly glanced at the list of ninjutsu Orochimaru was selling, a hint of surprise and admiration flashing in his eyes. From the most basic ninjutsu to some rather powerful forbidden techniques, it had everything. This clearly demonstrated that Orochimaru's mastery of ninjutsu was indeed well-deserved.

He had long suspected that Orochimaru possessed a considerable number of ninjutsu, but he hadn't expected them to be this numerous.

"Haha, this is amazing!" Zhang Feng laughed. "And it's a win-win-win situation. Orochimaru got the items he wanted, the Main God Space gained a wealth of ninjutsu knowledge, and I can use these exchange points to manage the space effectively. It's perfect!"

At this moment, Orochimaru opened the shop interface again.

"With these points, I can now exchange them for some powerful skills and items." Orochimaru's lips curled into a confident smile.

[Venom-Venom Fruit - 40000 Exchange Points]

"The Venom-Venom Fruit, it's really quite good..."

Orochimaru took a deep breath, his gaze fixed on the purplish-black fruit icon. After hesitating for a moment, he decisively pressed the exchange button.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

[Poison Fruit successfully redeemed; 40000 redemption points deducted.]

As soon as he finished speaking, a uniquely shaped fruit appeared out of thin air and floated in front of Orochimaru.

He reached out and took it, gazing intently at the fruit, a barely concealed excitement flashing in his eyes. The fruit was entirely purplish-black, covered with strange patterns, and exuded an unsettling aura.

"Is this a Devil Fruit?" Orochimaru carefully examined the appearance of the Devil Fruit, a hint of excited smile appearing on his lips.

Unexpectedly, Orochimaru did not rush to swallow the fruit. He took out a scroll from his ninja tool pouch, laid it flat on the ground, and then carefully placed the fruit in the very center of the scroll.

"Seal!" With Orochimaru's low shout, the runes on the scroll suddenly flickered, emitting a faint purple light. The outline of the Devil Fruit gradually became transparent, finally turning into a wisp of green smoke and disappearing completely into the scroll.

"Buzz—" Accompanied by a long buzzing sound, the light on the scroll gradually dimmed. Orochimaru nodded in satisfaction, reached out and rolled up the scroll, solemnly putting it into his pocket.

"While I'm very interested in the power of this fruit, it's best to be cautious until I understand its mysteries," Orochimaru muttered to himself, gazing thoughtfully into the distance. "Once we return to Konoha, there will be plenty of time to study it carefully."

Orochimaru then continued browsing the shop, and soon another skill caught his attention.

[Skill: Intermediate Armament Haki]

[Rank: Three Stars]

[Source: One Piece World]

[Introduction: Armament Haki is an invisible armor that protects the user from physical attacks. It not only greatly enhances defense but also offensive power. Advanced Armament Haki can even unleash enchanted weapons or inflict internal injuries, destroying the enemy's internal organs. It is also a powerful weapon against Logia-type Devil Fruit users, allowing the user's attacks to reach the user's elemental body, making it impossible for them to dodge.]

[Exchange Points: 17000]

Orochimaru carefully examined the description of [Intermediate Armament Haki], his eyes gradually brightening.

"It can greatly enhance defense and attack," Orochimaru muttered to himself. "If I can master this ability, some low-level ninjutsu in the ninja world will no longer harm me."

In the previous battle, Orochimaru discovered that compared to the ninjas of the ninja world, the people of the pirate world were exceptionally strong, and ordinary attacks were almost impossible to break through their defenses. Compared to the ninjas who preferred ranged attacks and were physically weak, the opponents seemed to prefer close combat.

If you can master this ability, your survival skills will undoubtedly be elevated to a new level.

He quickly glanced at the skill's exchange points: 17000 points. For him now, the price was acceptable.

With a thought, Orochimaru unleashed a dazzling beam of light from the sky, enveloping him. A peculiar energy began to gather within his body.

"This feeling," Orochimaru muttered to himself, his eyes gleaming with excitement.

He slowly raised his right hand, and a layer of pitch-black energy quickly adhered to his arm, turning his skin black.

Orochimaru took out a brand new kunai from his ninja tool pouch. He held the kunai in his right hand, his fingertips gently stroking the edge of the kunai, as if to feel its hard and cold touch.

The next second, he suddenly clenched his fist, and the kunai shattered under the pressure of the force, turning into countless metal fragments that clattered and fell to the ground.

"Interesting, this is really interesting," Orochimaru muttered to himself, his eyes gleaming with excitement.

At this moment, Tsunade's image appeared in his mind, and he recalled the terrifying power he had witnessed when she shattered a boulder with a single punch.

"If I can hone this Armament Haki to its fullest potential, I might even surpass Tsunade's superhuman strength," Orochimaru murmured to himself.

Suddenly, a crazed thought rose in Orochimaru's mind. His eyes gradually turned fanatical, and he muttered to himself, "What are the so-called secrets of the ninja world that I used to pursue, the source of all ninjutsu, compared to the vast universe? Even the entire ninja world is nothing more than a speck of dust in this boundless universe."

"What I seek is the truth of all realms! This is my ultimate pursuit as a ninja!"

He took a deep breath, composed himself, and looked at the virtual screen in front of him again.

The exchange points displayed above were almost depleted, only a few thousand remaining. Orochimaru quickly browsed the other options in the shop, but it was clear that his current points were insufficient to exchange for anything useful.

He looked up at the enormous sphere of light and asked in a deep voice, "God, how do I return to the Ninja World?"

[Simply think "return" in your mind] That cold, mechanical voice rang out again in the God Space.

Upon hearing this, Orochimaru took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and silently chanted in his heart: "Return!"

The next moment, an invisible force enveloped Orochimaru's entire body. He felt a sudden darkness before his eyes, and then instantly vanished from the God Realm.
