Game Merchants Starting from the Ninja World

Onoki sneered, "For a rogue ninja to go to such lengths, daring to kill someone during the Chunin Exams, it seems Konoha isn't as powerful as rumored. Things have come to this..."

He reached into his pocket and pulled out the smoke grenade that had fallen to the ground earlier.

He pulled the fuse in front of everyone.

Whoosh.

The smoke bomb flew into the sky above the duel arena, exploding into a dazzling firework that pieced together the symbol of Iwagakure.

"Seriously, this old man is so impatient. I was thinking of waiting until the Chunin Exams were over before I made my move."

Ai slowly took off his clothes, revealing his taut muscles, signaling the same thing.

Mei Terumi looked surprised, then covered her mouth and laughed, "Are they all going to do something reckless? Hokage, it seems you're in a dangerous situation."

"So, they really intend to launch an attack on Konoha during the Chunin Exams?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi was not surprised at all. With Asuma's constant reminders, he had already anticipated the situation.

boom.

A cloud of smoke dissipated.

"Gentlemen, I am the Toad Sage of Mount Myōboku. If we decide to let this matter drop, Konoha can pretend nothing happened, and you will still be honored guests. What do you say?"

With his messy white hair tied back and wearing wooden clogs, Jiraiya's expression was comical, but his eyes were full of vigilance.

He stood beside Hiruzen Sarutobi without hesitation.

Although he left the village out of disappointment due to his teacher's various decisions, he would fight to the death if anyone dared to attack Konoha.

"Jiraiya, it's been a long time."

Hiruzen Sarutobi's cloudy eyes lit up as he ripped open his divine robe, revealing the ninja armor he had been wearing.

Jiraiya said with a solemn expression, "Now is not the time for reminiscing. I never expected Orochimaru to do something like this, daring to attack Konoha."

"Jiraiya?"

The Kage are naturally familiar with the three legendary Konoha Sannin who shone brightly in the war.

According to intelligence,

He had long since left Konoha to travel around, and his last appearance was in the Land of Hot Springs. Unexpectedly, he quietly returned to Konoha.

The original plan was for the Raikage and Tsuchikage to join forces, kill the Hokage as quickly as possible, wreak havoc while Konoha was leaderless, and then take advantage of the situation to mobilize the ninja forces on the border to annex the territory of the Land of Fire.

It now seems that Hiruzen Sarutobi, that monkey, had anticipated this all along.

"Four Purple Flame Formation!"

The secret agent who had reported earlier suddenly launched an attack, summoning three other people who quickly stood at the four corners of the stands.

A purple, transparent flame barrier rose up.

Take off the mask.

The faces of the Sound Four were revealed.

Inside the dueling arena, Orochimaru's soft, feminine voice rang out: "Sarutobi-sensei, it's been a long time."

Hiruzen Sarutobi glanced sideways, closed his eyes in heartache, and sighed, "I never imagined you would go to such lengths, my dear disciple, Orochimaru."

Ai, who was surrounded by the barrier, laughed and said, "It seems that Orochimaru wants to use us to get rid of you. What a clever scheme."

"I was worried that countless Konoha ninjas would come to your aid from deep within Konoha, but now it seems I should thank Orochimaru properly."

The original plan was to successfully kill the Hokage.

Jiraiya's sudden appearance caused a change in the plan. If they could not kill the Hokage quickly, they would be stuck in a quagmire from which they could not escape.

They were all thinking of sitting down as the two of them suggested...

Orochimaru's appearance and the deployment of the Four Purple Flame Formation gave them another surprise.

As expected of Konoha,

Old tradition.

Chapter 106 The War Begins

Inside the dueling arena,

A ninja from Kusagakure bowed respectfully, addressing the enormous, god-like figure in the sky, and asked, "Respected Mr. Fang Yi, may I withdraw from the game event?"

"Of course, the reincarnation game is entirely voluntary, and you can even quit the game midway."

"However, as a punishment for passive play, one piece of equipment, skill, or item will be randomly deducted from the player's inventory."

Fang Yi laughed inwardly.

Unexpectedly, Orochimaru was quite clever, managing to come up with the idea of ​​using the Reincarnation Game to achieve his goal.

Registration fee has been collected, and reward points have been received.

Even if all players quit, I won't lose out.

Thank you for your understanding.

Orochimaru, with a smile on his face, threw the dice.

A grotesque skeleton cavalryman appeared, its skeletal horse neighing as it swung its sword at Orochimaru.

Level 9, Skeleton Cavalry.

Orochimaru is a level 15 necromancer who controls level 15 ghouls, making it easy for him to kill the monsters in front of him.

But he chose to open his arms.

puff.

The skeleton rider's cleaver severed Orochimaru's head. Before Orochimaru could even use his life-saving technique, the Substitution Style, a burst of white light dissipated, and Orochimaru was eliminated and kicked out of the duel arena.

[You have been judged to be playing passively, and your ninjutsu [Reanimation Jutsu] has been deducted.]

"That's really terrifying."

Orochimaru clearly noticed that his memories of the Reanimation Jutsu were gradually fading.

Until they are completely forgotten.

Although it hurt, Orochimaru breathed a sigh of relief and said in a low voice, "Fortunately, the White Scale Serpent was not taken away, nor was the carefully cultivated Plague Ghoul taken away."

Summoning Jutsu: Great Serpent

A burst of smoke erupted, attracting everyone's attention.

A giant serpent from the Earth Dragon Cave swayed its tail and flicked its tongue, scaring the nearby eliminated ninjas into retreating.

"Orochimaru!"

Jiraiya roared as he looked at the familiar figure standing on the head of the giant snake.

"Don't be impulsive, there's a Purple Flame Barrier!"

Hiruzen Sarutobi grabbed the enraged Jiraiya, focusing all his attention on the enemy confronting them within the Four Purple Flame Formation.

His heart sank.

None of them were opponents that could be easily defeated, especially since they were outnumbered.

"Jiraiya, don't forget what I taught you: don't get distracted during battle, just focus on the enemy!"

“I understand, old man.”

Inside the dueling arena,

Temari asked with a worried expression, "Kankuro, should we also withdraw from the game event?"

"No, we'll continue with the activity."

After watching the video, Kankuro's face was somber. He said, "Since Father has already been ambushed by Orochimaru, this war has nothing to do with Sunagakure. Maki will make the right choice."

It's okay, we still have resurrection coins.

If Gaara were willing, he could revive Rasa, and Sunagakure would not descend into chaos.

"This resurrection coin, Kankuro, you can have it!"

Gaara revealed a bloodthirsty look, and when he saw Rasa die, his whole body trembled with excitement.

What followed was an endless emptiness.

Even though the person he hated most was already dead, the Fourth Kazekage, who sealed a monster inside himself and kept sending people to assassinate him, was killed by the even more evil Orochimaru.

I should be happy, right?

It must be because I didn't kill him with my own hands, that must be it. In that case, let's revive him and then kill him!

Kankuro took the resurrection coin, his expression one of astonishment.

I thought I would have to use a lot of persuasion to get the revival coin from Gaara, but I didn't expect him to take it out on his own.

Gaara said with a ferocious expression, "Since my purpose in existence is to kill, isn't it true that my value is only realized by killing the strongest person?"

Kankuro remained silent.

His own brother, Gaara, is sinking deeper and deeper into the path of paranoia and madness.

He tried to put his hand on Gaara's shoulder, but was stopped by a sudden surge of sand.

This is the behavior of someone who is seen as an enemy.

These automatically defending sands are not controlled by Gaara, but rather his mother infused them with her chakra and will before she died, protecting him in this way.

Whenever Gaara senses danger or fear, the sand will passively defend itself.

Are we even being treated as enemies?

Kankuro looked dejected as he twirled the resurrection coin in his hand.

[Please select a resurrected character; their strength cannot exceed level one.]

"The fourth generation of Kazekage, Rasa."
