I simultaneously traverse countless worlds

However, the two-tailed cat, who had been staying in the sealed space like a lazy cat because it felt that the outside world was very dangerous, could no longer bear it when it discovered that the sealing technique that restricted it was becoming more powerful and that it and its host were actually starting to approach the immortal body.

joke!

Why are the tailed beasts confined to the Jinchuriki by the sealing technique, and why do they dissipate when the Jinchuriki dies, only to be reborn again several years later?

The reason is that the special tailed beast sealing technique establishes a life-and-death connection between the jinchūriki and the tailed beast. For example, when the jinchūriki dies, the tailed beast will inevitably dissipate and wait for a considerable period of time before it can gather its power again and be reborn into the world. Therefore, the tailed beasts are somewhat concerned about the life and death of the jinchūriki.

The key question is whether the Jinchuriki's own condition will affect the sealing technique. We can look at Gaara and Kushina Uzumaki to see this, and the answer is definitely yes. As for Yugito the Two-Tails, who absorbed the Seed of the Blazing Sun, even if his strength has not increased dramatically, he has already evolved into an Otsutsuki alien from the Naruto world in terms of both soul and physique. As the Two-Tails, Nekomamushi, who was sealed as a Tailed Beast, he felt this most clearly.

Under these circumstances, before the Two-Tailed Cat could react, it had truly become a dead cat. It immediately tried to break through the sealing technique and escape, but as soon as Li Mo made his move, the Two-Tailed Cat, which was not very clear about the sealing technique, was startled by the suppressed chakra. The sealing technique suddenly became as solid as an impenetrable wall, and an extreme sense of danger surged into its mind, making it tremble with fear.

However, before the two-tailed cat could think much, it suddenly sensed a change in the sealing technique. When it looked up, it saw Li Mo appear. Its innate ability made the two-tailed cat so frightened that its fur stood on end!

"Huh? You actually noticed something was wrong..."

Seeing the two-tailed cat's confused state, Li Mo raised an eyebrow and knew that the other party must have seen something different through the soul projection of his projected into the sealing technique space, which was why he was slightly surprised.

In fact, Li Mo's current situation has already exceeded the limitations of the native supernatural power system in the Naruto world. If he were placed in the D&D worldview, he would undoubtedly belong to a special sequence of demigods or even gods. The reason is that he has fused with the memories and powers of multiple Li Mos, and his own soul has not only been strengthened to a stage of impending qualitative change, but he has also completed the fusion of Yin-Yang and Five Elements chakra.

In the world of Naruto, the fusion of the seven types of chakra, encompassing Yin and Yang and the Five Elements, is an absolute super threshold. Most ninjas only possess two or three chakra natures. They usually specialize in one type of chakra for training, as this maximizes the amplification of their ninjutsu within the same chakra nature and is the easiest way to increase their chakra reserves. However, ninjas who want to advance to Jonin level will at least choose to train in two types of chakra to improve the quality of their chakra.

The problem is that even the elite Jonin of the five great ninja villages mostly master the bloodline limit of fusing two types of chakra, or simply improve the quality and quantity of one type of chakra. The threshold for Six Paths level, however, requires the fusion of seven types of chakra, namely Yin Yang and Five Elements. That difficulty is simply hellish for many ninjas in the ninja world.

You mean the Sage of Six Paths and his brother?

That's because they benefited from their mother's fame. Otherwise, look at the reincarnations of the Sage of Six Paths' two sons, Ashura and Indra. Both of their reincarnations were exceptionally talented. However, even the previous reincarnations, Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha, failed to reach the threshold of the Six Paths level during their peak years. Even Madara Uchiha only awakened the Rinnegan and gained the ticket to the Six Paths level before his death.

Just look at how difficult it was for the Sage of Six Paths' two own sons to barely reach the Six Paths level in terms of combat power, or even to eventually step into the Six Paths level. This explains why, despite the many geniuses and even prodigies that have emerged in the ninja world over the past thousand years, not a single top-tier powerhouse has ever reached the Six Paths level. Otherwise, the ninja world would have been completely unified long ago. Even for someone like Hashirama Senju or Madara Uchiha, facing a seasoned Six Paths level powerhouse would only result in certain death.

Even for Li Mo, without his cheat-like ability in the [White Mist Space], reaching the Six Paths Level 1 in less than ten years would have been pure fantasy. To survive in the Blood Mist Village, a village already rife with infighting, required immense luck. As for him now, he felt he could easily handle even a Kage-level expert, but dealing with a Six Paths-level expert would require a fight to determine the outcome.

Now, through its innate eye, the two-tailed cat saw Li Mo's mental projection as if it were seeing a shining sun. The intense pressure made it fearful and even reminded it of the Sage of Six Paths it had faced before!

"Hmm, let me think about how to deal with you!"

Seeing that the Two-Tailed Cat Demon was trembling and completely unable to face his pitiful appearance, Li Mo's malice towards it dissipated by most. After thinking about how to deal with the tailed beasts, especially the Two-Tailed Cat Demon in front of him, he finally made a relatively appropriate decision: "Then that's settled. I will separate your original consciousness and place it next to your host. You should help your current host well, understand?"

For Li Mo, he naturally wouldn't like to put a strange intelligent energy life form into his body. Besides, given his current strength, only the resurrection of the Ten-Tails would have a decent effect; the other tailed beasts would be easy targets.

However, for Yugito Two-Tails, Nekoha is the most important asset in her battle. Otherwise, she would at most be a Special Jonin, and her potential would not be as good as Samui, a genius who was promoted to Special Jonin through her own talent. Now that Nekoha's consciousness has been separated from her, eliminating its interference, and Nekoha can still stay by her side to help her, it is the best thing for Yugito Two-Tails. She can even take this opportunity to directly reach the level of Kage-level power.

As for Two-Tailed Cat's own opinion, it had just looked up when it saw Li Mo's very "kind" eyes. It trembled all over and nodded frantically to show that it absolutely supported the big boss's decision, afraid that if it was a step too late, it would get its cat head smashed!

Chapter 15 The Birth of Tailed Beast Pets

"Meow~!"

"Huh? So cute! The Two-Tailed Cat Demon can actually turn into a cat? I've never heard of that before!"

"I've never heard of this before. This is the power of Lord Li Mo..."

Later, in the manor's large garden, the Two-Tailed Cat Demon, who had just emerged from the sealing technique, was mercilessly surrounded and watched by Hinata Hyuga, Ino Yamanaka, and Anko Mitarashi. The girls and lolis chatted while teasing the Two-Tailed Cat Demon.

There's no way around it, the Two-Tailed Cat's current appearance is indeed very cute and adorable, completely in the cute posture of a blue bobtail cat. The Two-Tailed Cat, barely the size of two palms, doesn't give the onlookers any sense of fear at all. Looking at the cute little cat that she can hold in one hand, even the Scorching Release user, Yekura, has her beautiful eyes sparkling. Cute little animals like this are very popular with women.

Faced with the strong presence of several beautiful girls and little girls, Two-Tailed Cat Fork was actually very angry and wanted to fight back. However, Li Mo had directly stripped its consciousness from the tailed beast and built a new body for it. The little blue cat, which was also an energy body, had combat power that was really similar to that of a kitten of the same age. After Li Mo glanced at it without making a sound, Two-Tailed Cat Fork simply gave up on treatment and lay down, pretending that it was really just an ordinary cat. It even occasionally interacted with the few beautiful girls.

There was no other way; even a cat under the eaves has to bow its head. No matter how arrogant Two-Tailed Cat Fork was before, it had to obey when facing a super strong person comparable to the Sage of Six Paths. It didn't want to have its cat head smashed by the other party's punch, so it didn't want to know if it could withstand the other party's methods. If it was as strong as the old man, the Sage of Six Paths, it might really be dead if it died.

After all, the tailed beasts were not afraid of death in the past because they could be resurrected after death, at most after a few years. However, if they were to die completely, the tailed beasts would feel fear. The cowardly behavior of the two-tailed cat, Cat Fork, was really not surprising.

"Mo, is it really okay if the two-tailed creature is alright?"

On the other side, after watching the Two-Tailed Cat Demon, which had turned into a kitten and was even enjoying the delicious dried fish, meowing and being scratched happily, Yekura quietly walked over to Li Mo, who was sitting on a garden chair. She naturally sat down and leaned against her man's chest. Then, looking at the Two-Tailed Cat Demon being teased like a kitten, she couldn't help but whisper a question to her man.

To be honest, Yekura, who was using the Scorching Release technique, still had some reservations about the Tailed Beasts. Unlike her man, she wasn't as carefree. The Two-Tailed Cat Demon sounded even stronger than the One-Tailed Shukaku, and she was genuinely worried that separating the Two-Tailed Beast's consciousness might cause some hidden problems.

"Don't worry, I've separated the Two-Tails' consciousness from its body. It's just an ordinary cat now, at most an energy life form!"

Hearing Yekura's worried words about the Scorching Release technique, and knowing that she was genuinely concerned about the newly arrived Two-Tails Yugito, Li Mo gently shook his head to indicate that there was no need to worry. He briefly explained his methods against the Two-Tails, Nekomamushi, and then, looking at Yugito who was playing with the cat, he said in a somewhat serious tone, "The one we should really worry about is Yugito. She can now gradually unleash the power of the Two-Tails, but to what extent she can do so depends on herself..."

For Li Mo, the Two-Tailed Cat Fork wasn't a significant fighting force, as it didn't contain a small portion of the Ten-Tail's power. He could even throw the cat away without a care. However, for the Two-Tailed Yugito, it was of paramount importance.

Unaware of the value of the [Seed of Blazing Sun] that Li Mo had fused with, Yugito, the Two-Tails, still highly valued the Two-Tails, Nekosa. Given the training she received in Kumogakure, if she hadn't been chosen as Nekosa's jinchūriki, her current strength would be at most that of a special jonin. In the Third Shinobi World War and the current war between Kumogakure and Konoha, she would at most be a high-level cannon fodder.

That's right. In the Five Great Ninja Villages, Special Jonin are considered upper-middle class, but they don't have the real power of a Jonin. If they were to reach the level of a regular Jonin, Yugito the Two-Tails could attend Jonin meetings even in Konoha. While she might not have much real power, she could speak in front of the Hokage and other Jonin (of course, if she spoke inappropriately, she might lose her right to speak in the future). Even on the front lines, a regular Jonin could serve as a mid-level commander in the ninja army.

Special Jonin are slightly higher in status than Elite Chunin, but not as high as true Jonin. They are usually ninjas in charge of a few squads or lower-level commanders. Unless you are a sensory-type Special Jonin, without the Two-Tailed Cat Fork, Yugito Two-Tail would probably be sent to the battlefield as high-level cannon fodder. Even now that she has gained new power, it is still difficult for her to get rid of the constraints of her past experiences.

Of course, now that Yugito has fused with the Seed of the Blazing Sun, she will soon find that her power will become stronger and stronger. She will even have complete control over the power of the Two-Tailed Beast. There is no need to rush such a thing.

"Look at Yukito's own efforts..."

Upon hearing Li Mo's words, a strange expression appeared on Ye Cang's pretty face. As someone who was once among the top geniuses in Sunagakure, she naturally knew that relying on one's own efforts determined one's lower limit. To see one's upper limit, one's talent and even the opportunities encountered were more important.

Li Mo deeply understood this as well. In the world of Naruto, where bloodline determines your limit, even the most hardworking ninja will be powerless to go beyond a certain point without the right opportunity or innate talent. Even Guy, who almost ended the series with a single kick, was actually a genius in taijutsu. Moreover, his father had crippled the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist before his death, so the resources Konoha invested in Guy were definitely not small.

You mean Xiao Li, Akai's disciple?

Please, if it weren't for having a good teacher, and the fact that Lee's physical talent is indeed outstanding, with the training volume that would absolutely kill a normal person, Lee might have ruined himself long ago if he didn't have Kai's support and the physical training resources he received.

Moreover, in the Naruto world, taijutsu talent is an undervalued talent. Ninjas only train taijutsu to fight enemies when they are genin or chunin. If they have enough chakra, they will directly use ninjutsu or genjutsu. Even in the Kumogakure, which is biased towards taijutsu, they are famous for combining ninjutsu and taijutsu to form the "Nintaijutsu". There are no cases like Rock Lee who can do everything with taijutsu.

It's no exaggeration to say that if Rock Lee hadn't met Might Guy, even with his exceptional taijutsu talent, he wouldn't have been able to showcase it. Just look at how he barely made it into the Ninja Academy's entrance exams, only managing to qualify as a full-fledged ninja through sheer taijutsu...

"Don't worry, Yugito isn't a child. She and the others have no problem with talent right now; it's up to each individual to work hard!"

Seemingly sensing that Yekura's feelings were slightly complicated, Li Mo didn't continue the conversation on this topic. While holding the beauty's slender waist, he looked at the two-tailed Yugito and the others, and confidently spoke directly.

In fact, Li Mo felt that with the fusion of the [Seed of the Blazing Sun], there wouldn't be many obstacles for the Two-Tails Yugito, Samui, Kurenai Yuhi, and Anko Mitarashi to become Kage-level powerhouses. With the resources, they could just push straight up. It's especially similar to the Otsutsuki bloodline route in the Naruto world. You can say that the bloodline route will be limited by one's own bloodline in the future, but you can't deny the strength of ninjas who awaken their bloodline limits.

As you can see, the Uchiha, Senju, and Uzumaki clans all have ninjas who have awakened their own bloodline limits, making them stronger than ordinary ninjas of the same level. For example, the Sharingan has evolved from the one-tomoe Sharingan to the Mangekyou Sharingan, making Uchiha ninjas of the same level almost invincible in one-on-one battles, earning them a great reputation for making their opponents "flee in a one-on-one fight".

In particular, Li Mo knew that the upper limit of bloodline paths in the Naruto world was very high. The performances of Kaguya Otsutsuki, Hamura Otsutsuki, and Hagoromo Otsutsuki were enough to illustrate this point. Even if they might be limited by the bloodline limit of the Otsutsuki clan in the future, this limit would be completely meaningless to 99.9% of ninjas. They probably wouldn't even be able to reach the bloodline limit of the Otsutsuki clan.

Moreover, given Li Mo's abilities, the [Seed of Blazing Sun] already has the potential to allow Scorching Release user Yotsune and Two-Tails Yugito to break free from the shackles of the Otsutsuki clan's bloodline. However, this is different from what Li Mo said about having the opportunity to reach Kage-level, Super Kage-level, or even Six Paths-level. For users like Scorching Release user Yotsune and Two-Tails Yugito, the probability of reaching Six Paths-level is really not high. But compared to the previous situation where no matter how hard they tried, it was useless, now there is already a bright future.

Of course, even if someone doesn't reach that level, Li Mo won't feel disappointed. In the end, the [Seed of Blazing Sun] he's giving away is just an opportunity. If someone falls behind due to personal reasons or bad luck, Li Mo isn't incapable of supporting a few beautiful girls. He didn't explain this honest truth to Ye Cang, just reassured her that she didn't need to worry.

Seeing that Yekura, who had been using the Scorching Release technique, breathed a sigh of relief and then went to tease the Two-Tailed Cat, which had now become a pet cat, Li Mo watched the scene of several beautiful girls and lolis playing with the cat while receiving an important message from his shadow soldier:

"Right now, Konoha and Kumogakure are already fighting again on the front lines..."

Chapter 16 War and New Goals

The battle between Konoha and Kumogakure continued!

This situation was not beyond the expectations of Li Mo and other interested people in the ninja world. Or rather, many people in the two major ninja villages may not want to fight, but the current situation has forced them to bite the bullet and continue fighting.

Are you kidding me?! Konoha is the head of the five great ninja villages, after all. The eldest daughter of the main branch of the prestigious Hyuga clan was kidnapped by the Kumogakure under the guise of peace talks. Along with her, the eldest daughter of the Yamanaka clan and two female ninjas of considerable status also went missing. If Konoha were to continue peace talks with Kumogakure like this, even if the Third Hokage dared to issue such an order in the morning, he would be overthrown by the combined forces of the various ninja clans in Konoha by evening.

—In the original Naruto anime storyline, the Third Hokage stopped the Cloud Village's underhanded tactics but killed the leader of the Cloud Village delegation. He barely managed to suppress the opposition within the village and negotiate peace with the Cloud Village, but at the cost of not being rescued by any of the major ninja clans during the Chunin Exams. Now, the Third Hokage dares to insist on continuing peace talks with the Cloud Village after the Hyuga clan's eldest daughter has been kidnapped by the enemy and his side has suffered considerable casualties without successfully rescuing her. If he does so, he will be completely disgraced, and probably no one will support him as Hokage anymore.

After all, when the Third Hokage abdicated in favor of the Fourth Hokage, most of the major ninja clans in Konoha chose to support the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze. However, the Nine-Tails' attack led to the deaths of Minato and Kushina Uzumaki, and the Third Hokage, who regained the Hokage position, didn't choose his disciple Jiraiya or Tsunade to succeed him. Instead, he used this opportunity to suppress the major ninja clans that had previously chosen the Fourth Hokage. It's hard to believe that those suppressed clans harbored any resentment.

Therefore, even though the Third Hokage knew that he didn't want to continue this messy war with the Hidden Cloud Village, he didn't have enough excuses to negotiate. At most, he brought Danzo Shimura and his Root main force as reinforcements to the front lines. The various ninja clans of Konoha also contributed to some extent. Compared to the previous perfunctory situation, the Hyuga clan and the Konoha ninja clans that were on good terms with them were really serious and mobilized their clan's elite ninjas.

On the other side, the Hidden Cloud Village also lost the Two-Tails Jinchuriki and more than two hundred ninjas, but failed to obtain the Hyuga main family bloodline they wanted. The Hidden Cloud Village, which suffered heavy losses, was naturally not going to give up easily. No one paid attention to their attempts to negotiate, as they were all thinking about defeating Konoha and reaping the benefits before they would choose to stop.

You said that when two tigers fight, one of them will surely be injured?

Sorry, but people in the ninja world don't have that kind of long-term vision, or rather, ninjas don't even think that far ahead. The alliances and rivalries between the five great ninja villages have never been lacking. Konoha Village was besieged by the other ninja villages because of its own strength and potential being too great.

Back when Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha were alive, no ninja dared to act recklessly in front of them. Even the Third Tsuchikage was so frightened by Madara Uchiha that he almost couldn't stand up when he went to Konoha with his master. It was precisely because of Konoha's strength during the time of the First Hokage that the Second Hokage, Tobirama Senju, despite having reached the threshold of the Kage level, was still actively besieged by the four great ninja villages.

The reason is that Konoha Village was indeed too powerful at the time, and its potential even surpassed that of the other four great ninja villages and smaller ninja villages. This led to the four great ninja villages joining forces to besiege Konoha Village, which lasted from the First Shinobi World War to the Third Shinobi World War. Apart from the instigation of the daimyo and nobles, it was Konoha Village's strength and potential that made it feared by the other ninja villages. Before the emergence of god-like figures like Hashirama Senju and Madara Uchiha, the other ninja villages believed that they could defeat Konoha by joining forces.

Otherwise, Konoha Village would have the most bloodline limit ninja clans and secret technique ninja clans, and it would occupy the most fertile and populous land in the Land of Fire. If it competed with other ninja villages in terms of development speed, Konoha Village would have too great an advantage under normal circumstances. Other major ninja villages would not be foolish enough to just watch without taking necessary actions.

It was precisely because Konoha Village's reputation and advantages were too great that neither the First nor the Second Shinobi World War could dethrone it from its dominant position. It was only after various considerations that the other four great ninja villages launched the Third Shinobi World War in an attempt to defeat Konoha Village. Moreover, just when they were about to see the hope of victory, Konoha Village gritted its teeth and persevered, which led to the Third Shinobi World War ending temporarily in a less than perfect manner.

Now, watching as Konoha continues to bleed out in less than ten years, having experienced the Third Shinobi World War and the Nine-Tails' rampage, and now entangled with Kumogakure, it's safe to say that, apart from Kumogakure and Konoha, the leaders and daimyo of the other ninja villages are secretly applauding!

In any case, one is Konoha, the leader of the five great ninja villages, which has suppressed the other four great ninja villages for decades, and the other is Kumogakure, whose style of doing things is particularly domineering. If the two sides go to war and are destroyed, it would be a great thing. If they could perish together, Iwagakure, Sunagakure, and Kirigakure would probably be happy to hold a celebratory banquet. However, Konoha and Kumogakure, as the parties involved, are now in a dilemma and have no choice but to decide a winner.

Otherwise, the internal affairs of Konoha and Kumogakure would be unmanageable. Even the Fourth Raikage felt that continuing the fight was not right, but he couldn't explain himself without gaining benefits. The situation in Konoha was even more complicated, and the Third Hokage had to bite the bullet and go for it.

So, just as the Third Hokage set off with reinforcements, the Hidden Cloud Village launched a surprise attack on the front line, but failed to break through the Hidden Leaf Village's defenses!

The reason is simple: Konoha Village lacks high-end combat power, but its foundation is indeed very strong. For example, its defensive line has barrier techniques and other methods, and it has been invested for many years. It is wishful thinking for Kumogakure to break through Konoha's defense line in one fell swoop.

In particular, the Third Hokage had given repeated instructions to prevent a surprise attack by the Cloud Village. The Konoha garrison performed admirably, managing to repel the assault force led by Killer Bee, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki. Even though Killer Bee, who had not yet reached the perfect Jinchuriki form, could currently exert power at the level of a Kage, he was still overwhelmed by the Iwa ninja who overwhelmed the Third Raikage. Killer Bee had not yet reached the strength of the Third Raikage.

The Cloud Village's offensive caused several days of trouble for the Konoha Village's front-line defenders. However, the arrival of the Third Hokage with a large number of reinforcements abruptly interrupted the Cloud Village's offensive. If Killer Bee, the Cloud Village commander, hadn't seen the situation was unfavorable and chosen to retreat, he would probably have been captured by Konoha's elite Jonin and the Third Hokage.

To put it simply, while Jinchuriki are indeed a strategic weapon of a ninja village, if Jinchuriki were truly invincible, Hashirama Senju wouldn't have treated them like pets and casually distributed them to other ninja villages. The Five Great Ninja Villages all have sufficient means to deal with individual Jinchuriki and Tailed Beasts; it's just a matter of how much they might have to pay. And on the battlefield, the Great Ninja Villages obviously wouldn't mind paying that price.

Less than a day after the reinforcements led by the Third Hokage arrived at the front lines, reinforcements from the Hidden Cloud Village, led by the Fourth Raikage, arrived, and the Hidden Cloud Village and the Hidden Leaf Village were once again in a stalemate. However, at this time, the peace talks with the Hidden Leaf Village had been proven to be a "trap." In addition, the various Hidden Leaf Village ninja clans, which had previously been reluctant to put in any effort, sent their elites. Even Danzo Shimura and the Root were taken to the front lines by the Third Hokage. It can be said that apart from not having an advantage in terms of Kage-level ninjas, the Hidden Leaf Village completely suppressed the Hidden Cloud Village in all other aspects.

This advantage quickly became apparent. When the Hidden Cloud Village attempted to launch small-scale probing attacks, they were all suppressed or even gained the upper hand by the Hidden Leaf Village. The Fourth Raikage vaguely sensed that the situation was not good. However, at this time, the Hidden Cloud Village was also highly motivated to fight. They were unwilling to accept defeat after failing to obtain the direct bloodline of the Hyuga main family and losing a Two-Tails Jinchuriki, as well as many Hidden Cloud ninja. They wanted to turn the tables and reclaim what they had lost.

As a result, the war between Konoha and Kumogakure continued. The leaders of both sides knew that if they really fought to the death, they would suffer heavy losses. However, if they did not fight to a conclusion, they would not be able to give an explanation to the people of their villages. So they had no choice but to bite the bullet and carry out this great war.

The other ninja villages were just watching the show, hoping that the two major ninja villages would perish together. Even the Sand Village, which had signed an alliance agreement with Konoha, was very happy that Konoha's forces had been drawn to the front lines, and many tasks had to be transferred to the Sand Village. The Iwa Village, led by the Third Tsuchikage, was secretly fanning the flames. The old fox was quite fond of this kind of war.

In any case, it was Konoha and Kumogakure ninjas who died. Given that both were on the enemy side in the Third Shinobi World War and before, if the Third Tsuchikage hadn't known that his open intervention might cause the two great ninja villages to shift their focus and fight together, he would have preferred to cheer on Konoha and Kumogakure. Instead, by observing the war between the two great ninja villages, the Third Tsuchikage had been secretly engaging in various underhanded activities, such as selling war supplies to the two great ninja villages to make money and providing them with intelligence.

As for the other smaller ninja villages, apart from Kirigakure, which is currently unable to attend to the situation outside, they are all watching the war between Konoha and Kumogakure with schadenfreude. They have long harbored deep resentment towards those major ninja villages, and they are now enjoying watching the show from the sidelines. Even the Akatsuki organization, which has already been formed and taken action, is watching the war between Konoha and Kumogakure with indifference and has no sympathy whatsoever.

After watching the epic war between Konoha and Kumogakure, and confirming the situation of the other three major ninja villages, numerous smaller ninja villages, and the newly formed Akatsuki organization, Li Mo turned his attention to his next target, Tsunade, one of the legendary Sannin of Konoha!

Chapter 17 Tsunade: I won money?

"I bet big!"

"This is my money! Give me a big bet!"

"Quick! Hurry up and place your bets..."

A few days later, in a bustling town not far from the capital of the Land of Fire, in a mid-range gambling establishment, dozens of customers waving banknotes or carrying money bags watched a beautiful woman place her bets and then followed suit.

Normally, the casino employees who act as dealers would be happy to see customers waving banknotes and money bags placing bets. The reason is that every time they harvest these leeks who are trying to get rich overnight or want to win money, the dealers will take a cut of the winnings. Although the amount of a single winnings may not be large, it can be increased by the number of bets, making it a lucrative business.

The employee who was acting as a dealer today looked at the woman in front of him, dressed in old-fashioned clothes that couldn't hide her stunning beauty, which was unlike anything he had ever seen before. Beads of sweat were pouring down his forehead. If he had known what was going to happen today, he would never have wanted to take the dealer position for the next two days. However, it was too late to say that now. None of the employees around him came to help, and even the casino owner was pale with fright but dared not make any other moves, completely letting the other party win money in his casino.

The reason is very simple. If this were the world of Naruto, it would be no less impressive than the martial arts world in the novels Li Mo had read in his previous life. The stunningly beautiful woman with a hot figure had been in this town for several days. It wasn't that no one wanted to take advantage of her and her young maid in her twenties. However, those guys all died tragically. Even the officials treated this beautiful woman with great respect and even turned around and taught a lesson to the local thugs who had killed several of their underlings.

Those thugs are one thing, but the town government, located near the core area of ​​the Land of Fire's capital, has at least a hundred soldiers and a dozen chakra-wielding samurai. As the officials of the Land of Fire, they actually treated this beautiful woman, whom the gamblers had previously called "Big Fat Sheep," with utmost respect. Anyone with a brain would know that this beautiful woman was definitely someone they shouldn't mess with.

Therefore, even though he suffered heavy losses, the casino owner did not dare to stop. However, what he found strange and gratifying was that the beautiful woman who had been winning money all day actually left after a while, looking bored!
