Game Merchants Starting from the Ninja World

From an outsider's perspective, it is known that the Sage of Six Paths is considered to be immortal and has a clear and well-defined path to advancement.

But the ninjas didn't know that the Sage of Six Paths was just a legend.

Orochimaru was like a drowning person struggling in a quagmire, unaware of the existence of immortality, yet he embarked on the path of pursuing immortality without hesitation.

This kind of obsession alone is enough to make people admire him.

It's a pity we took the wrong path.

Orochimaru said in a hoarse voice, "My lord, I wish to hand over all my ninjutsu and knowledge. How many reward points can I exchange for that?"

There is no doubt that these redeemable items require a large number of reward points.

He couldn't wait to slowly hunt the corrupted monsters; he just wanted to taste the flavor of immortality as soon as possible.

Even the cheapest ghoul bloodline requires 25 reward points.

A shimmering white light descended upon him.

Orochimaru felt as if this aura had seen through him from head to toe, leaving him with no secrets whatsoever.

After the halo dissipated, Fang Yi said, "All your ninjutsu and your technical knowledge of chakra research can be exchanged for a total of 30,000 reward points."

It's not a small number; in fact, it's a lot.

Mei Terumi, who is also a Kage-level ninja, has only about the same number of ninjutsu that Tsunade and the others have combined, compared to Orochimaru.

Those secret techniques and forbidden knowledge developed account for a significant portion of the reward points.

However, it still falls short of the exchange Orochimaru dreamed of.

"Orochimaru, you have excellent taste."

Fang Yi smiled and said, "Most bloodline-related exchanges do not have level restrictions, unlike equipment and skills, which require hunting corrupted monsters to level up before you can wear them."

Orochimaru took a deep breath and asked, "Sir, can we exchange for it at the Sound Village?"

The Sound Village was the culmination of his many years of hard work, but now, in order to achieve immortality, he had no choice but to painfully give it up.

Fang Yi calmly said, "You can exchange it for 50,000 reward points."

“There’s still a long way to go.”

Orochimaru made up his mind and asked, "My lord, is there anything else I can exchange for?"

"Of course."

Fang Yi had been waiting for these words. He chuckled inwardly but said aloud, "All the soul samples you've collected from the Impure World Reincarnation can be exchanged for 200,000 reward points."

Orochimaru was indirectly responsible for instigating the Fourth Shinobi World War. Although he died too young, his legacy was left to Kabuto Yakushi.

But he's not dead yet.

Those collected Edo Tensei samples, connected to countless Pure Land souls, were determined by the ninja world's consciousness to be the "Root" that initiated the Fourth Shinobi World War.

This is an extremely vast source!

Thank you all for the tips, monthly tickets, and recommendations. I have no way to repay you, so I'll just give you all a big thank you! (thump thump thump!)

Chapter 54 Orochimaru's Trial

Orochimaru's pupils constricted, and he exclaimed in surprise, "A sample from the Impure World Reincarnation technique is actually this valuable?"

He was naturally perceptive.

The Impure World Reincarnation is essentially a summoning ninjutsu that uses a medium to summon the dead from the underworld to the present world. Although it has been improved, it still doesn't reach 200,000 reward points, right?

"Excuse me, may I ask why the Impure World Reincarnation technique can fetch such a high price?"

After much deliberation, Orochimaru decided to ask the question in the most honest way possible.

There were no tricks involved.

He knew that trying to be clever in front of a mysterious game merchant who could stir up world events would likely provoke his displeasure and lead to bad results.

Fang Yi didn't try to hide anything, saying, "The Impure World Reincarnation techniques you collected shone brightly during the Fourth Shinobi World War, sparking a war that nearly overturned the shinobi world. This is something that interests me."

In business, the most important thing is sincerity.

Especially when you have absolute control, it's pointless to resort to underhanded tactics. Just state your position directly and let the other party make the choice.

The Impure World Reincarnation technique is not as powerful as one might imagine.

In the second-generation version of Edo Tensei, the summoned dead were unable to unleash their full power, and their healing speed after being shattered was extremely slow.

After Orochimaru made improvements, he increased the number of summons and created special containers to enhance the power of the dead, but the effect was still not very strong.

Until the version by Yakushi Kabuto,

Not only did he miraculously absorb all of Orochimaru's research findings without exploding and dying, but he also mastered the Ryuchi Cave Sage Technique, transforming a snake into a dragon, and even acquired a low-quality version of the Sage Mode curse seal...

Finally, by collaborating with Obito Uchiha to provide the dead with White Zetsu cells, they were able to create the army of the dead to fight against the Allied Shinobi Forces.

It's no wonder Orochimaru was puzzled by the value of the Impure World Reincarnation technique.

In his mind, the Impure World Reincarnation was merely a useful ninjutsu for studying the boundary between life and death.

"The Fourth Ninja War?"

Orochimaru remained silent, digesting the explosive news in a low voice.

To date, there have been three wars that can be called the Ninja World Wars.

The mysterious merchant, however, claimed it was the fourth time.

Can you foresee the future...?

Although we've tried our best to make the game merchants seem mysterious,

But when it comes to the future, even Jiraiya and the toad sage of Mount Myōboku wouldn't dare to be so certain about the future, would they?

As far as Orochimaru knew, the toads of Mount Myōboku seemed to have the ability to foresee the future.

However, that ability is quite useless, more like a shadow captured in a dream, illusory and unreal, as indistinct as a reflection in a mirror or the moon in the water.

otherwise,

Jiraiya, that idiot, would have found the chosen one he was talking about long ago, and he wouldn't still be running around the world like this.

"That's right, but it has little to do with you."

Fang Yi said casually, "After you die, Kabuto Yakushi will inherit your will and start a war using your remaining body."

"Kabuto, it was him."

Orochimaru revealed an expression of great interest.

Unexpectedly, he heard something so shocking and interesting. He said, "That child, did he not find his own heart, so he inherited my body to search for the meaning of life?"

He was not afraid of death, or rather, he believed that meeting the game merchant would change his fate.

"Since I am alive, I do not need a successor to my will!"

Orochimaru's voice was hoarse, with a feminine quality, which sounded somewhat comical and strange.

But it was resolute.

As someone who seeks immortality, all that is needed is to live on, study all knowledge and ninjutsu, and master the truth of the world; there is no need for such an insignificant successor.

However, hearing about the blooming of flowers like Kabuto Yakushi did bring him joy.

Although he was despicable and cruel, conducting human experiments and treating life as worthless... he was also willing to appreciate the radiant light of life.

This is where Orochimaru's contradictions lie.

Orochimaru nodded and said, "I'm willing to exchange."

He had no intention of starting a war, so the Impure World Reincarnation was naturally insignificant, more like a windfall.

"Transaction successful."

As Fang Yi's gentle voice faded away.

A dazzling purple halo enveloped Orochimaru, as if he were undergoing a very mysterious transformation.

After the light disappeared,

Orochimaru eagerly opened his arms, raised his fists, and slammed them down onto the sharp pebbles on the ground.

According to the instructions for redeemed items

Even low-level ghouls, after being corrupted by dark forces, possess hard, gelatinous skin that even steel blades cannot cut through.

hiss……

His fist was cut by sharp pebbles, and bright red blood flowed out.

Orochimaru gasped.

As a battle-hardened ninja, he was naturally not afraid of pain, and he noticed no change in his body when he inhaled.

Fang Yi looked at the agitated Orochimaru and explained, "Didn't Kabuto tell you that you need authentication points to bring any item from the game back to reality?"

Orochimaru's eyes widened suddenly as he realized what was happening.

I'm not even a player yet.

Fang Yi pointed to the envelope held in Orochimaru's hand and said, "Open the invitation, become a player, and then use reward points to verify the bloodline you purchased to achieve immortality."

Orochimaru took a deep breath, his emotions dissipating, leaving him slightly at a loss.

Tear open the envelope.

A string of black text appeared before my eyes.

[Enter the reincarnation game directly, or purchase a small-scale trial qualification?]

Fang Yi explained with a smile, "Choose the former, and you'll start the game from scratch."

"Purchasing a small trial qualification will teleport you to a small trial arena. After clearing the trial, you will receive reward points and experience points, and you can directly reach level five at the highest level."

This is a special option I added to the game invitation.
