Naruto: My version is ahead of the ninja world

It wasn't just the Third Hokage who arrived in this area; in fact, it should be said that Konoha's high-ranking forces "came out in full force"... Accompanying the Third Hokage were several elite Anbu ninjas, as well as Mitokado Homura and Utatane Koharu.

Koharu Utatane doesn't have any special features; you can't tell her fighting style from her appearance. But Homura Mitokado is different; he's covered in scrolls and looks like an enhanced version of Tenten.

Faced with the crisis brought by the Nine-Tails, the Konoha ninjas can be described as united in their resolve.

Of course, there was only one person who seemed out of place: Shimura Danzo, who was hiding in the underground safe space of Konoha Village to preserve his power.

Standing at the heart of the battlefield, Yu Xian hesitated for a moment, unsure of what to do next. Running away now would be far too conspicuous.

Are you going to hang around here and finish off the Nine-Tails in the same way you finished off the Fourth Hokage? That's a joke. If the older version of the Third Hokage could handle the Nine-Tails, why would the Fourth Hokage have to sacrifice himself?

Well, okay, the Fourth Hokage's death was a bit strange to begin with, and sealing the Nine-Tails didn't require the Reaper Death Seal.

Just then, Akimichi Torifu's resistance successfully attracted the attention of Kurama, whose eyes, projected with the three-tomoe Sharingan, glared angrily in their direction.

The next moment, accompanied by a muffled whooshing sound, the second tail lashed out in this direction.

Bang!

Akimichi Torifu, who was using the Super Expansion Technique, had nowhere to dodge, and in order to protect the ninja behind him, he had no intention of dodging at all. So, unsurprisingly, he was sent flying.

With sheer physical strength, Kurama lifted Akimichi Torifu high into the air. The latter's figure pierced through the dust and smoke, drawing an arc in the darkness. After destroying several buildings, it smashed through the outer wall of Konoha and was finally thrown into a forest.

"Captain Akimichi!"

This was a good opportunity to leave. Yu Xian shouted and then ran off in the direction that Akimichi Torifu had thrown.

It's unacceptable to desert in front of so many people, but rushing to save teammates is perfectly fine. The more panicked and reckless he is, the more it shows his concern for his comrades.

The Third Hokage witnessed Akimichi Torifu's fate firsthand. His eyes were filled with sorrow, yet he was powerless to follow and do anything. Clearly, he was aware of some unfortunate outcome.

Yuzuru quickly crossed the Konoha wall, and when he found his position and arrived in front of Akimichi Torifu, the other party's situation was indeed quite bad.

Transforming into a larger size to fight, while bringing many advantages, also carries considerable risks. This can at least cause the opponent to completely lose their agility, leaving them with no choice but to withstand many attacks instead of dodging them.

Akimichi Torifu was directly hit by the Nine-Tails, which severely damaged his organs. In addition, he was in close contact with the Nine-Tails and suffered severe burns from the Nine-Tails' chakra.

"team leader……"

"Who...who are you?"

Akimichi Torifu's upper body slammed onto a large rock in the forest, and he lay in a pool of blood.

Yu Xian came to the other person's side, squatted down and examined him briefly, and then basically confirmed his injuries.

"Fractured sternum and ribs, internal organ damage, massive bleeding... We've basically reached our limit, Captain. Is there anything else you'd like to say?"

Akimichi Torifu took a severe hit. In addition to the internal organ damage caused by the Nine-Tails' blunt force, the fractured bone also pierced through his vital organs, resulting in even more fatal secondary injuries.

Although Yugen is not a medical ninja, he can still issue a critical condition notice in this situation.

What Yu Gen said was a bit strange, and Akimichi Torifu was a little confused at the time, so he had to think hard before he understood what Yu Gen was talking about.

"I……"

Yu Gen wasn't interested in what a ninja's last words would be. Besides, Akimichi Torifu wasn't really dead; he just died in a dungeon.

It wasn't even Yu Xian who did it, so he has nothing to be dramatic about.

In real life, Akimichi Torifu is quite good to Yuzuru, but what does Akimichi Torifu have to do with this dungeon? So now that we've come this far, let's not waste the opportunity.

So he mobilized his chakra and tried to perform the nature transformation he had just learned. Then his hands began to form hand seals rather clumsily... Chou—Mao—Shen, a blinding bolt of lightning flashed in the night.

"This technique is... Chidori? Why... who are you? How can you use this technique?"

It's not surprising that Akimichi Torifu knows Kakashi's Chidori. They are both ninjas closely following the Hokage, and Kakashi has performed his signature move, Lightning Strike, so this technique is certainly well-known.

Huh? Why use this technique? Yu Xian was like someone who had just bought new clothes; of course, he wanted to try them on as soon as possible.

"Captain, there's no hope. So it's time to be free."

It's unclear whether Akimichi Torifu still had the ability to struggle at this point, but in any case, faced with the familiar Konoha ninjutsu and Hagen's declaration of liberation, he did not attempt to struggle.

Faced with a dying teammate, which is true mercy: a desperate attempt to save them that yields no results, or granting them a merciless death? This is a question that cannot be answered.

After finishing off Akimichi Torifu, Yugen's stats increased again, specifically in chakra, taijutsu, and strength. However, only his strength stat truly showed a change... His strength increased by 1 point, reaching level 6.

The experience points gained from killing are already limited, and apart from special cases like the Fourth Hokage, it's extremely rare to directly increase one level... The Akimichi clan is simply too outstanding in terms of strength.

"Unfortunately, I didn't get any new attribute changes." Yu Xian shook his palm, dispersing the lightning in his palm.

Akimichi Tokifumi was proficient in the transformation of Yang attributes, yet he was stingy and did not drop it to Yugen.

After finishing off the enemy, Yu Xian glanced back at the Nine-Tails, who was still in Konoha, and then sprinted towards the outer edge of the village... However, this time he didn't go to the Nine-Tails' next "landing point".

After running wildly for about twenty kilometers, Yu Xian saw a gray and desolate world, like an unloaded game map.

In other words, although the scope of this instance is not small, it is ultimately limited to the area around Konoha Village.

For some reason, after confirming that the dungeons were limited and could not cover the entire world, Yu Xian breathed a sigh of relief.

This shows that the copy is indeed a copy, and not some "parallel world," because such an "unloaded" scenario could not exist in the real world.

The instance was already mysterious and complicated enough; Yu Xian didn't want things to become any more complicated.

"So here's the question: if the scope of a dungeon is limited, will each dungeon be unique? If there's a dungeon about the Nine-Tails' rampage, will there also be a dungeon about the Uchiha clan massacre?"

Yu Xian stood at the edge of the instance for a short while, and after confirming that he could not leave the area, he quickly returned to Konoha Village.

When he passed the spot where Akimichi Torifu had sacrificed himself, he stopped, thought for a moment, and then carried the body on his back.
