Naruto: I get stronger by drawing lots

However, many things are beyond our control, otherwise the moon tree wouldn't be here.

"Just like you."

Minato Namikaze smiled and said something.

They didn't know what to say at first, but when Yue Shu opened her mouth, the dull atmosphere began to warm up.

"Why think so much? Isn't sleeping better?"

Yue Shu shrugged.

"fragrant?"

Nagato's emotions gradually returned to normal, and he began to behave as usual.

"Don't worry about it. It's just a habit of Yue Shu's. He always comes up with strange phrases. He just means he's not happy."

Minato Namikaze was also happy to see Nagato recover.

He felt the resentment most deeply, but he didn't quite understand what it meant to be special.

To put it bluntly, Minato Namikaze was just a commoner, an orphan, and his chakra was only wind, unlike the other members of his team, except for Tsuki. However, he was taken in by the Senju family and had the aura of a powerful clan.

"Alright, let's talk about this later. Right now, let's get to the finish line first and make sure we get the news about what's happening in Konoha."

Tsukiki stretched and looked at Nagato.

"Have you collected enough scrolls yet?"

"No problem, it's all on me."

"That's good. Let's go. Girls, carry them. Boys, either you or Minato Namikaze can carry them. I'll scout ahead."

Tsukiki's words were very much in line with his style; he decisively started slacking off again.

Aside from Nagato, the other three understood and had no choice but to do so.

Time is running out. Today is the third day of the three-day deadline. If Yue Shu and the others don't want to be eliminated, even if they are teammates, they will have to carry the burden alone to the finish line.

And so, Yue Shu and her group began to move.

Yue Shu walked ahead empty-handed, followed by the large transport team.

Two men and two women carried one man and one woman on their backs, taking turns so it didn't take much effort.

As Yue Shu walked slowly, it was likely that there wouldn't be many teams left at this point; most would have reached the finish line a little earlier.

"System, draw a prize."

Yes, that's right. Yue Shu still had a lottery ticket saved up, but he didn't use it immediately after completing the previous task.

But now we have to take a gamble.

Even Ban has shown up; everything was too unexpected. One lottery draw is enough to make up for some of the shortcomings. Tsukiki must bear the greatest pressure, after all, he is the strongest person in this group.

He used to complain about why capable people couldn't live peaceful lives, but now he's quietly taking on responsibilities.

"Congratulations, host, you have drawn: Kazan Demon Transformation One-Time Use Card Ninja Enhanced Version".

"what?"

Tsukiki was dumbfounded again. What kind of thing had she drawn?

Kazan the Moon Tree knows a thing or two. He is one of the demons in DNF (Dungeon Fighter Online) and is attached to the hand of the Ghost Knight. Therefore, the Ghost Knight needs to seal his hand, which means sealing Kazan, otherwise he will break free.

"Kazan's Demon Transformation is a one-time use card, the Enhanced Kazan Card, which grants the user Kazan's power and strengthens the nature of his chakra, but at the same time, he will lose his sanity. Please use it with caution."

"—"

I f***

Yue Shu immediately cut off his own words with an international phrase.

What kind of weird stuff did they just draw?

Yue Shu was quite helpless. What kind of ghosts and gods were these? Although the system was indeed a lottery system for all realms, he had never drawn anything from all realms before. It was mostly Naruto-related items. Now, suddenly, this strange thing appeared, and at such a crucial moment.

Is it good luck or bad luck?

"Forget it, at least we can still give it a shot."

"What did you say?"

"nothing."

Tsukiki and her group walked on, while the Chunin Exams were only just beginning.

The giant tree had been burned to ashes, with only a few embers still flickering and occasionally popping out mischievously.

"Hey, is this a dream?"

Twenty minutes later, a group of masked people appeared in the Death Forest.

The commotion was so great that Konoha quickly came to investigate.

In fact, the scene here was truly astonishing.

"What kind of battle could have caused the terrain to change like this?"

Those who witnessed this scene couldn't help but gasp.

The site was a huge crater, and the surrounding area had been leveled out, allowing sunlight to shine directly down, which made the eerie Death Forest feel somewhat incongruous.

"Investigate thoroughly; this mission is extremely important."

"Go check again to see if there are any suspicious or missing candidates among this year's test takers. Don't miss anyone."

If Yue Shu were here, he would definitely recognize this familiar face; his striking white hair made him impossible to hide.

The White Fang of Konoha is widely recognized as the strongest fighter after the Hokage.

He is now the captain of the Anbu, Konoha is still strong, and White Fang has deeply inherited Hiruzen Sarutobi's profound wisdom. Everything is different from what it was later.

—This is a bit of a problem. I hope nothing bad will happen.

White Tooth felt a little reassured, and the people around him had already begun to take action.

When time flows back in the future, it will eventually tell those who are dreaming a truth, a cruel truth about the world.

Chapter 71: Intelligence Sharing

"Roar!"

The crimson chakra was directly manifested, and just as chakra is conducted through ninja tools, the light of chakra spread out.

The crimson light emanated from the humanoid monster.

White bones protruded directly from the joints, sharp teeth gleamed, and the humanoid monster looked around with blood-red, ferocious eyes.

Strange words murmured from the monster's mouth, spreading to the surroundings as if flames from hell were beginning to spread across the land.

"Moon Tree—"

The black-haired girl lay on the ground, one eye closed, weakly calling out that name.

Her body was stained red, and the two-tomoe Sharingan in her blood-red eyes made her look like a sinister beauty instead of a classical girl.

At the heart of the flames, a tiny monster stood still, its long, greyish-white hair fluttering in the wind.

"Hahahaha!"

"Hahahaha!"

The monster's laughter spread from its mouth, and a sense of despair arose from the flames.

All around, the buildings of Konoha were shattered like glass, the blond boy was nowhere to be found, and the red-haired girl was also nowhere to be seen.

"Let the first wave of baptism begin, everyone on Earth."

A person stands atop the Hokage Rock, arms outstretched towards Konoha Village.

The next moment, hateful shouts began to echo.

Nine tails were waving wildly, completely ignoring the surroundings, and the huge orange fox roared to the sky.

The tailed beast, a symbol of hatred and calamity, stands in Konoha, its nine tails stirring up flames of war, slowly scorching the fluttering leaves.

"Come, humankind, know your sins."

An evil smile crept across the sky, and the cries of the fox and the monster began to echo throughout the heavens and earth—

"We were the last ones, actually."

Yue Shu and her group had just reached the finish line, where almost all the teams that were supposed to be there had already arrived.

"Since you've arrived, have you been affected?"

"Someone has already gone to investigate that flame. The medical ninjas will be here soon. Leave the injured over there for now."

The proctor who wore the fox mask earlier is here.

Everyone could clearly see the flames that Madara released earlier, and now the proctor is talking about that.

After all, this matter has a significant impact, and Konoha needs to investigate it thoroughly, both internally and externally.

Yue Shu and her group were the last to arrive, and the proctor saw them and immediately came over to ask about their situation.

"Did any of you see that flame?"

"No, we just happened to be nearby and got caught in the blast, so we left together."

Tsukiki spoke first, preventing others from revealing the information, which made everyone else glance at Tsukiki again.

"--Really? Then you all get some rest. The final round of individual tests will begin in a week."

The proctor nodded, then made arrangements for Yahiko and Konan, before turning and walking away without asking any further questions.

"Why not tell him about that person?"

Kushina asked a question, but Minato and Mikoto remained silent.

He is—

"Uchiha Madara."

Mikoto spoke first, defending Tsukiki.

"The strongest member of the Uchiha clan, one of the two great heroes of the Warring States period who stood shoulder to shoulder with the First Hokage."
