He was selling gashapon toys in Marvel Studios, and at the beginning, Tony turned into Kuuga.

"Are you willing to take refuge?"

Banner's golden Buddha looked down at Shukaku, who was lying on the ground crying uncontrollably, and the intensity of the Buddha's light weakened slightly.

"I'm willing!! I'm 100% willing!!" Shukaku nodded frantically, sand falling in a flurry. "Master, please have mercy! You're crushing my soul to pieces!!"

Banner withdrew his hand, and the golden palm print dissipated.

Shukaku lay paralyzed at the bottom of the pit, its whole body trembling.

There was no longer any madness in those eyes, only the relief of surviving a disaster.

And a heartfelt reverence for Buddhism.

In the distance, the agents were stunned.

They only brought a few empty storage bags with them, intending to take some ninja tools and scrolls.

Unexpectedly, their Dr. Banner even performed a ritual to release the tailed beasts from suffering.

Three hours later.

Longhushan, in front of a gashapon (capsule toy) shop.

The five teleportation beams lit up almost simultaneously.

The first team is back: Gong Qing and Tony.

The two men's storage bags were bulging, and Gong Qing had a blade of grass he had somehow gotten his hands on dangling from his mouth, his face full of smugness.

"Fourteen volumes of forbidden techniques, thirty volumes of S-rank ninjutsu, the Konoha armory has been turned upside down." Gong Qing tossed the storage bag in front of Li Ang. "The Third Hokage was a step too late. When he arrived at the forbidden technique room, he only saw an empty wall."

Tony landed behind him, his armor already reverting to its nanoparticle state.

He held a glowing crystal in his left hand, while the scan data continued to run on the holographic screen.

"The sealing technique array structure of Konoha is very interesting. I need to take it apart properly when I get back."

The second group consisted of Zhang Zhiwei and three disciples.

The old master stood with his hands behind his back, his clothes without a single extra wrinkle.

The three disciples were exhausted, each carrying three or four storage bags filled with chakra metal ores and ninjutsu scrolls from Iwagakure.

"The Tsuchikage of Iwagakure tried to stop me, but I bounced him back."

Zhang Zhiwei nodded to Li Ang, his tone casual.

"The village's protective formation has shattered, and the entrance to the metal ore vein has been blown open. The disciples spent three hours moving about four tons of ore."

The third group consisted of Zhang Chulan and Xia He.

Zhang Chulan walked over, rubbing his shoulder, dragging a huge sealed container behind him.

The container contained a sample of the Eight-Tails' tail tissue; even through the sealed layer, one could feel the fluctuations of chakra within.

Xia He yawned beside him, without even getting her clothes dirty.

"Kumakure has taken care of it. The Raikage was kicked down three times, and the Eight-Tails was hypnotized for forty minutes."

Zhang Chulan shrugged. "We moved more than twenty boxes of ninja tools and scrolls of lightning release techniques, as well as a batch of refined ore that they dug out from their lightning mine."

The fourth one is Gao Ning.

When the third-ranking member of Quanxing emerged from the pillar of light, he was holding a strangely shaped fan.

The Iron Fan is one of the iconic weapons of the Sand Shadow Sect.

"The Sand Village's mechanical puppets are useless against me," Gao Ning reported expressionlessly. "Time erasure can directly return the puppets to their unassembled state, without even needing to destroy the core."

"The vault was on the eighth basement level, and it took two hours to move it."

The fifth team consists of Coulson, Natasha, and Barton.

The return of the three agents was the most impressive.

Coulson's suit was still impeccably tailored, except for a few shards of ice on the cuffs.

"The ninjutsu scrolls from Kirigakure are of good quality, especially the water-style and assassination-style ones."

Coulson handed a stack of lists to Leon.

"In addition, we have made a copy of Mei Terumi's Lava Release technique."

"There are also six ninja swords belonging to the Seven Ninja Swordsmen. We only found four of them; the other two don't seem to be in the village."

Patton pulled a storage bag from behind his back and put it on the ground, the metal inside clanging and rattling.

"The weapon forging technology of the Hidden Mist is quite good. I took a batch of semi-finished blade blanks and special molten ore for quenching."

Li Ang sat in a chair behind the podium, holding a glass of iced cola.

All five teams have returned to their posts without any casualties.

Banner, who was sent out later, also reaped considerable rewards.

He looked at the mountain of storage bags and supply boxes in front of him and took a sip of his cola.

"In less than six hours, all five great ninja villages were breached."

Li Ang swiped open the system panel, and the data was scrolling rapidly.

"Total estimated value of the spoils... being calculated."

The system notification sounded.

[Loot tally complete, total estimated value: 9.7 million value points.]

[After deducting transmission fees and commissions, the remaining allocation amount is 7.32 million value points.]

Li Ang whistled.

"Not bad, it's 30% higher than expected." He looked at everyone, "Thank you all for your hard work. Dinner tonight is on me."

"Wait a moment."

Banner was the last to emerge from the pillar of light.

A faint golden aura still lingered on his body; his steps were steady, and his expression was serene.

But a cloud of sand followed behind him.

The clump of sand hovered timidly behind Banner, coalescing into a fox-like face with its two eyes blinking as it looked around at the strangers.

Guardian Crane.

"Boss, this is the tailed beast you asked me to get." Banner's tone was tinged with helplessness. "But it insists on following me and says it wants to become my apprentice."

Shukaku quickly stepped forward, sculpted two tiny claws out of sand, and clasped them together in a gesture of respect.

"Master is right! This humble monk... no, this humble crane is willing to follow Master in cultivation!"

The entire room fell silent as everyone exchanged bewildered glances. Then, Gong Qing slapped his thigh.

"Tailed beasts can be exorcised? Banner, you're really ruthless."

Li Ang leaned back in his chair, watching this scene, the corners of his mouth curving into a wider smile.

"Today's profits are quite substantial." Li Ang closed the panel and stood up.

He scanned everyone present.

These guys went from being stingy with teleportation fees worth tens of thousands of points three months ago to earning tens of millions per person per dungeon run now, growing faster than his system's upgrade progress.

"Alright, those who need to divide the spoils, divide them; those who need to rest, rest."

"Let's talk about tomorrow tomorrow."

late at night.

On the back of Longhu Mountain, by the campfire.

Most people had already gone back to rest, but Li Ang was still sitting behind the stage, the holographic panel in front of him glowing with a faint blue light.

System upgrade progress: 54.1%.

There's still a long way to go before the next feature unlock, but he's already quite satisfied with today's earnings.

Just as Li Ang was about to turn off the panel and go to sleep, a new notification suddenly popped up on the screen.

Red.

[WARNING: The target world (Naruto) has triggered its "higher-level existence perception threshold" due to a large-scale invasion.]

[Estimated: At least two entities at the "hidden power" level in this world have detected the interdimensional intrusion.]

Li Ang's finger stopped on the Coke can.

Hidden forces.

He recalled the setting of the Naruto world.

The five great ninja villages are only the visible forces; behind them lie many hidden monsters.

Obito Uchiha.

Madara Uchiha.

Orochimaru.

And...the deeper aspects of the Otsutsuki clan.

"This is getting interesting."
