Game Merchants Starting from the Ninja World

Gunia said firmly, "No matter how difficult it is, I will not give up."

She turned her head.

Looking at Shinobu Kocho, whose gaze was gentle as water, whose voice was soft, and who had a faint smile, she said, "And Shinobu-neechan, give me your share too!"

When souls find their kindred spirits, it's never a one-sided experience.

Clare was also able to sense the deep sadness in Shinobu's heart.

Do not know why,

Shinobu Kocho, who always presents herself as gentle and calm, like a mature older sister next door,

Suddenly, tears streamed down her face.

……

the other side,

Konohagakure, located in a hot spring village, has already occupied the entire territory of the Land of Hot Springs.

With the ability of the reincarnation game,

Hiruzen Sarutobi personally led the Ino-Shika-Cho trio and the Shimura ninja clan to wipe out all the resistance forces within the Land of Hot Springs.

The number of Konoha players has expanded to five thousand.

Players from the Ino-Shika-Cho trio, Sarutobi, and Shimura ninja clans make up the majority of the player base.

The orthodox Hokage faction had long since swept away the shadows and was thriving, rising to prominence on the backs of the ninja and civilians.

Inside the conference room of the Hokage Building,

Hiruzen Sarutobi wore a straw hat and a sacred robe, with a warm, spring-like smile on his face.

However, his grotesque face has not yet returned to normal.

The game of reincarnation has countless ways to remove scars, making it easy to restore his former appearance.

However, Hiruzen Sarutobi did not choose to do that.

These scars, caused by Orochimaru's framing and the torture he endured in prison, were deliberately preserved by him.

I must constantly remind myself of this.

"Constant tolerance will only lead to betrayal; when necessary, swift and decisive action must be taken!"

I recall the image of snapping my best friend Tuan Zang's neck with my own hands.

Hiruzen Sarutobi's heart began to ache.

He used to maintain a righteous and noble image because Danzo, as the root in the shadows, solved most of the dirty and troublesome problems.

The two of them are as indispensable as light and shadow.

After Shimura Danzo's death,

He inherited his best friend's will and integrated the Shimura family into the Sarutobi clan, making them inseparable.

And he was no longer as hesitant and weak as before.

He would not hesitate to take action against any obstacle to Konoha's rise, even his own relatives.

"Hokage-sama."

Akimichi Torifu took a deep breath and said, "A message came from the game that the Konoha forces have killed the Lord of Gran Forest [Bull King Sauta], and two resurrection coins dropped."

He became the head of the Akimichi clan after Akimichi Choza's death in battle.

He was also personally appointed by the Hokage as the [Chief of Intelligence].

He was responsible for transmitting and investigating all intelligence, both inside and outside the game, so the news that the Konoha forces had killed the Minotaur King was reported to him immediately.

Hearing his words,

The breathing of all the ninja clan leaders and elite ninjas present became heavy.

Resurrection coin.

Being able to perfectly resurrect a dead person without any side effects makes it an extremely rare strategic resource in any faction.

In the endless wars of the ninja world, who hasn't lost loved ones and close friends?

In the trading market within the Reincarnation game, the price of Resurrection Coins has been driven up to 200,000 reward points, but still no one is willing to sell.

"Two resurrection coins..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes flickered, and after a moment of contemplation, he asked with a kind smile, "Although I am the Hokage, the ability to kill the Minotaur King Sauta is not only due to my efforts, but also inseparable from everyone's bloody battles. What are your opinions?"

His tone was gentle, conveying an attitude of inquiry and discussion.

The attitude it displayed was exactly the same as before the Konoha Crush plan.

but,

No matter how Hiruzen Sarutobi maintained his former posture, the assembled ninja clans still felt something was off.

The essence of chakra

It is a special product created by the Sage of Six Paths in his attempt to enable all humans to understand each other.

Even if the original intention has been lost, it still retains some subtle effects of emotional expression.

Therefore, ninjas who control chakra are more likely than ordinary people to fall into extreme love and hate, leading to continuous warfare.

Now they,

The source of the strange feeling was that within Hiruzen Sarutobi's chakra, besides the emotion of once being willing to sacrifice everything for Konoha, there was a slight coldness similar to that of the hawkish Danzo Shimura.

of course,

Most ninjas do not possess the same ability to fully perceive chakra as the Uzumaki clan and the tailed beasts.

They only had a superficial feeling that the Hokage before them didn't give off the same warm and approachable vibe as before.

However, this subtle subconscious intuition is often ignored.

It was assumed that the Hokage, after experiencing the devastation of Konoha's collapse, had a change in mindset, becoming more hawkish.

Chapter 314 Hiruzen Sarutobi's Political Maneuvers

A sorrowful look appeared on Akimichi Torifu's wrinkled face as he said, "This old man wishes to request a resurrection coin to resurrect Akimichi Choza."

"I no longer have the energy to continue managing the Akimichi clan. This resurrection coin is not only for Akimichi Choza, but also for the Akimichi family. I implore you all."

He is too old, and his physical functions have begun to decline.

Even as a gamer, he lacked that drive and ambition. He only managed to remain as the clan leader because the Akimichi family lacked a genius to support the clan.

If Akimichi Choza is not resurrected, he fears the Akimichi family will be reduced to a low-ranking ninja clan.

Like a samurai, they were abandoned by the times.

"What do you think?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi raised his hand and placed it on the Hokage's hat beside him.

His gaze fell on Akimichi Torifu, a fleeting expression of displeasure crossing his face.

He called himself an old man.

He also said he lacked the energy to take over the Akimichi clan?

Those ninjas who knew the story understood that it referred to the Akimichi clan, while those who didn't might have thought it was about themselves, the Hokage.

I am about the same age as Akimichi Torifu and we used to be teammates.

Akimichi Torifu claimed to be old and wanted to step down as clan leader, putting the Hokage in a very awkward position.

Naruto Uzumaki revived Minato Namikaze without authorization.

His failure to decisively hand over the Hokage position to the Fourth Hokage led to rumors and gossip in the village.

If it weren't for dispatching the remnants of the original Root organization, merging the ninja clans of Sarutobi and Shimura, and forming a new [Kage organization] to imprison those spreading rumors...

How could the village have been as harmonious as it is now?

Akimichi Torifu's words clearly did not take into account the possibility of causing further rumors, and whether intentional or unintentional, he was very disappointed in himself.

"We have not forgotten Lord Choza's contributions to Konoha, but order cannot be disrupted."

The speaker was the head of the Shimura family, who was about the same age as Asuma.

He looks somewhat like Danzo Shimura. He was groomed by Danzo as his successor, so he also exudes a sinister aura.

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked over, and it seemed as if he saw his best friend still alive; a slight smile appeared on his lips.

Upon hearing the other person's words, he nodded slightly, a look of affection appearing in his eyes.

He is indeed a descendant who has inherited his father's will and is very sensible.

Shimura Danno said calmly, "Everyone, carry out the mission. After you finish, hand over the dropped items to the village to accumulate contribution points. Then you can use the contribution points to exchange for the items you want from the village."

After the game version is updated,

Players who want to buy recovery items, materials for repairing and crafting equipment, and skill materials for quickly increasing skill proficiency will find the prices lower through the clan system.

The disappearance of the in-game store led to the gradual dominance of the clan system, which has a strong control over ordinary players.

"Resurrection Coins require 200,000 family contribution points."

"I can't come up with 200,000 contribution points."

Akimichi Torifu's gaze fell on the Hokage, who was in the chief seat, his expression complex.

Logically speaking, the hundreds of players in the Akimichi Ninja Clan should be able to scrape together 200,000 contribution points.

However, some time ago, the Hokage said that he needed to cultivate the [Kage Organization], so the Akimichi family borrowed 100,000 contribution points under the pretext of protecting the village to purchase a batch of Lv.15 green sets.

This is the reason why Qiudao was in a difficult situation when he tried to obtain wind.

“Take the wind, Shimura Danno is right, the order cannot be broken.”

Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes darted away slightly as he sighed, "Giving the resurrection coins directly to the Akimichi clan is unfair to the other ninja clans."
