Game Merchants Starting from the Ninja World

He said, "The system indicates that you can enter the reincarnation game at any time after exiting the game, so don't worry about not being able to enter. Let's go back to the real world first."

"Everyone, once you return to the real world, head directly to the Hokage Building. This is an order!"

"Yes!"

After a flash of white light, Asuma's team exited the game.

Subsequently, ninjas from various countries chose to level up or accumulate enough reward points to buy an item from the shop before quitting the game.

"Omoi, what a useless brat! You were killed by the gargoyle twice. Luckily, it's a game world where you can revive. In reality, someone with your strength would have been chopped into mincemeat by enemy ninjas long ago."

"I was ambushed; who knew the stone statue would move!"

"Exit the game first. We must report the matter of the Reincarnation Game to Lord Raikage."

Mabui noticed the unusual nature of the reincarnation game, and she used all her reward points to buy an item in the game store.

A bottle of red potion that can heal injuries.

Samui, who is skilled in combat, has already raised his level to 2.

Instead of hunting gargoyles, Mabui chose to stay in the starting village and record most of the items in the game's shop.

"The secret training methods passed down through generations of Raikage, the seven renowned ninja swords of Kirigakure, and the precious bloodline limits like the Sharingan and Byakugan..."

"A potion that can restore life, a miraculous Devil Fruit..."

The more I look, the more alarmed I become. With enough reward points, I can even exchange for the legendary Eye of God and the Rinnegan!

If these things could be brought back to reality, it would cause an earthquake in the ninja world.

……

Sungai tribe.

In a secluded courtyard, Hyuga Neji, who had been standing blankly in the center of the training field, suddenly collapsed to the ground.

It felt like a dream.

"I'm back?"

As for the Hyuga branch family, their first reaction was not to go to the Hokage Building as Asuma suggested.

Instead, he wanted to report the matter to the clan head.

However, Neji quickly realized what was happening, slowly walked back into the house, stared at the pair of white eyes in the bathroom mirror, ripped off his headband, revealing the seal pattern of the Caged Bird.

I unconsciously clenched my fist.

Upon entering the reincarnation game, everyone else was panicked, but he felt a different kind of emotion.

free!

The caged bird on the head disappeared, and it didn't matter if the white eye was lost; the body in the game was a truly free bird.

If you haven't tasted it, you won't feel disappointed.

"So sad……"

Neji looked at the dark green pattern on his forehead, which writhed like disgusting maggots, causing him to hallucinate pain all over his body.

He was breathing heavily when he slammed his fist on the mirror.

Fresh blood dripped down the shattered fragments.

"My fists have become stronger?"

Neji's eyes widened suddenly, veins bulging, as he stared intently at his fist, which was cut by the shards.

It wasn't an illusion; my strength had actually increased slightly.

He quickly recited the reincarnation game in his mind, and the player panel popped up.

Hyuga Neji (Ninja World)

Level: 2 (1/100 experience)

属性：力量9（+0.2），敏捷9，体质11（+0.2），精神8

Equipment: none

Note: The attributes of your game character will be linked to those in the real world. For every 10 points of attribute, your real-world attribute will increase by 1 point.

Note: To bring in-game items back to reality, you need to submit verification points.

Neji opened his backpack, submitted his authentication points, and took out a lump of grayish-black viscous substance.

【Phantom Essence】

Type: Material

Note: Low-quality soul crystals dropped by ghosts can be used to craft items.

Neji's eyes lit up with surprise as he growled, "Items from the Reincarnation Game can be brought back to reality!"

Like a bird yearning for freedom, when others study the game store, they only notice the powerful items and equipment that can be exchanged.

And then I noticed a very special item.

【Hyuga Tennin's Ninjutsu Scroll - Fragment】, records the Caged Bird Seal and how to remove it, 1000 reward points.

"Killing a ghost will earn you two points."

"This means that if I kill five hundred ghosts, I will be able to unlock the Bird in the Cage spell!"

Neji never realized that fate was looking out for him, and that freedom was so close to him.

Chapter 5 Fermentation

Hokage Building.

Amidst swirling smoke, Hiruzen Sarutobi, the ninja expert known as the strongest Hokage, sat with a solemn expression, puffing on his pipe incessantly.

Asuma was kneeling, with two support Chunin, Kabuto Yakushi, Naruto Uzumaki, and Neji Hyuga behind him.

After a long silence, Hiruzen Sarutobi's voice rang out from the smoke: "This is too absurd. Is there any evidence?"

Even though he knew that Sarutobi Asuma was his biological son and an elite Jonin loyal to Konoha.

However, he must remain skeptical until there is absolute evidence.

This is the mindset that the Kage of the most powerful ninja village must possess.

Asuma remained kneeling, extended his hand, and a faint white light appeared.

A beginner's short sword appeared out of thin air.

"No chakra fluctuations..."

Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes twitched, his eyelids lifted, and he stared intently at the beginner's short sword.

The ability to conjure objects out of thin air is not uncommon in the ninja world.

Whether it's a ninjutsu scroll or an expensive ninja tool pouch, both can store items and can be released using only chakra.

He was known as the "Ninja Doctor" because he possessed and knew many secret techniques.

However, they all require the release of chakra, and even Sage Mode cannot escape the aura of physical and spiritual energy.

It can be said that chakra is the source of all extraordinary abilities in the ninja world.

"A mysterious game that can transport people to another world, a shop where you can even exchange bloodline limits, and a power that makes you stronger by leveling up."

Hiruzen Sarutobi muttered to himself, seemingly deep in thought.

He has already sent ninjas to investigate the black tower that appeared out of nowhere.

The conclusion was that it was untouchable.

It can be seen clearly, but it's as if there's a distance in time and space between us, and we can't touch it no matter what we do.

After a long silence, Hiruzen Sarutobi exhaled a wisp of smoke that had faded in color, his expression serious, and said, "If it's true, do you know what this means?"

war.

Hiruzen Sarutobi didn't say it aloud, but his eyes revealed his thoughts.

It is not easy for the ninja world to maintain a brief period of peace.

Even now, there are still wandering ninjas and rogue ninjas causing trouble everywhere, but these are all localized, small-scale conflicts.

But the emergence of the reincarnation game,

Game items that can be brought into reality, methods to overcome talent limitations and long-term training, ways to become stronger by hunting corrupted monsters, and the exchange of countless bloodline limits and magical items in the shop...

Even someone who has lived half a lifetime and weathered countless storms still gets their heart pounding just thinking about it.

He did not believe that the shadows of the other four great nations could resist temptation.

Hiruzen Sarutobi took a deep breath and said with particular seriousness, "Asuma Sarutobi, the S-rank mission you guaranteed has been successful. You will serve as the captain of this mission."

"We must make contact with and win over the commoners, nobles and guards of the Fire Kingdom who appear in the reincarnation game."

"Report any situation immediately!"

Such an important event should, in principle, require the dispatch of an elite team composed entirely of Jonin.

However, no way to become a player has been found yet, so Asuma can lead the genin to investigate first.

"Yes!"

Asma looked serious and lowered his head slightly.

Kabuto kept his head down, the reflection from his glasses obscuring his eyes. Facing a powerful Kage like the Hokage at such close range, it would be easy for his disguise to be exposed.

Fortunately, Hiruzen Sarutobi's attention was focused on the Reincarnation Game, which prevented him from revealing any flaws.

Normally, missions are reviewed and approved by the logistics department before being directly issued to the ninjas.

Only a few commissions are officially issued with the Hokage's seal.

The S-rank request for the "Reincarnation Game" incident was stamped and delivered as quickly as possible to the Konoha clan involved with Hyuga Neji, as well as Hatake Kakashi, the Jonin who led Naruto Uzumaki.

The mission's duration is unknown, and all actions of the ninja during this period will be under the full command of the Hokage.
