Game Merchants Starting from the Ninja World.

Chapter 397 World-Class Mission

"For now, Aokiji has not yet betrayed the Navy, so let's not issue a bounty yet."

Sengoku extended a finger and adjusted the black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose.

Visible to the naked eye,

His once thick, black hair, as lush as seaweed, began to show streaks of color, with strands of white hair sprouting.

Everyone looked at each other, and all remained silent in tacit agreement.

"The Naval Alliance will compensate for the loss of the commander."

Sengoku's voice was hoarse, his eyes gleaming with a sharp light as he stared at the commanders on either side of the conference table. He said, "However, you are the navy. You will never be allowed to get involved in the dirty dealings of those noble groups!"

"If anyone is found to have voluntarily participated in the aristocratic group's human experiments, I will personally execute them!"

He was publicly reprimanded by Aokiji.

The emotions of the Warring States period were complex.

He had long known that these commanders' access to a constant stream of resources must be due to some connection with the aristocratic class.

However, the Navy Alliance, which can command countless top-tier players and gather such a massive force, will collapse instantly if it were to completely wipe out its commanders.

As long as the bottom line is maintained,

With naval commanders strictly prohibited from participating and under their own supervision, they shouldn't go too far.

It has always been like this.

The prosperous royal street and the filthy garbage mountain of the Goa Kingdom.

Raising taxes will drive the poor to the lawless kingdom of Sorbe.

After their mysterious disappearance, the royal family of Dressrosa, a country seized by the former Celestial Dragon Doflamingo,

That's how the world of One Piece is.

"Aokiji, it's always been like this..."

His inner voice told him that these noble groups deserved to be torn to pieces.

But reason quickly prevailed over his thoughts.

The world government, which has ruled the world for eight hundred years, has hundreds of member states under its command, all of which are like this: an aristocratic group enslaves the common people.

The Navy's justice is to protect civilians from pirate attacks.

The rest are all private matters within the kingdom...

The Navy has no right to interfere.

Sengoku sighed deeply, thinking to himself, "Aokiji, the justice you envision has transcended the boundaries of the Navy Alliance."

Putting the matter of Aokiji and human experimentation out of their minds

The most crucial thing now is the newly appeared Dark Gold-level boss in the Zombie World.

While gold-level zombies are rare, they can still appear occasionally, but dark gold-level ghost generals are truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

The Warring States Marshal solemnly declared, "Commanders of the Four Seas, each dispatch two hundred elite players to reinforce Jiang Family Town!"

"Two hundred people?"

The commanders' expressions changed slightly, and they all wanted to refuse.

The elite naval forces, which have already drawn 500 elite players from each commander, are now being sent to provide further support.

Cultivating elite players is not easy.

The loss of each elite player caused the commanders immense pain.

But seeing the gloomy face of the Warring States period, no one wanted to be the first to step forward, so they had no choice but to reluctantly agree.

The world of ghosts and monsters in Qing Kingdom.

Elite naval forces joined forces with four admirals,

Small pirate crews hoping to pick up scraps, weak ninjas and wandering samurai from the ninja world, and ordinary players from the Demon Slayer and Claymore worlds were all driven away by the vast lava and poisonous fog.

The remaining players are all from factions with top-tier players in command.

The Straw Hat Pirates, the desert circus where Buggy, the former captain of the Buggy Pirates, and Crocodile, the former Shichibukai, belonged.

The Charlotte family, who escaped from the Navy prison, is now headed by Katakuri, a Mochi Mochi Fruit user, who possesses a combat power of 2800 thanks to the Tsukuyomi legacy and his own talent.

far away,

There were also ninjas from the four countries and Dawn players who kept rushing over from other places after hearing the news.

"call……"

The howling wind, carrying scarlet raindrops, slammed onto the ground.

It contains extremely strong yin energy, which easily extinguishes the scorching magma and dissolves the poisonous mist released by Smoker.

Inside the cave of the Ghost General's tomb,

It was like a torn pocket, constantly spewing out a chilling wind that blotted out the sky.

"This feels so good. That useless doctor ruined my transformation into a perfect being, but I never expected it to turn out to be a blessing in disguise..."

In a dark corner, Muzan Kibutsuji narrowed his eyes, spread his arms, and looked on with an expression of enjoyment.

Blood rain and eerie winds fell on my body, nourishing me like sweet dew.

[Poison Zombie Controller Lv.29], 1200 combat power.

Muzan Kibutsuji's face was filled with excitement as he felt his flesh and blood being filled with yin energy, causing his whole body to tremble.

Back then, Orochimaru used him as a meat shield that could grow wildly to resist Naruto's holy flames, almost causing the Demon King to die a bitter and resentful death.

Fortunately, he has strong survival skills.

"This Ghost General is indeed powerful. If I can obtain the [Ghost General's Heart], my incomplete, mutated Yin body can transform into a [Yin Corpse]!"

"When the time comes, we must kill Naruto Uzumaki!"

Muzan Kibutsuji dared not provoke Orochimaru, the strongest player.

The psychological trauma Orochimaru inflicted on him even surpassed that of Yoriichi Tsugikuni.

Therefore,

The hatred from almost being killed could only be transferred to Naruto Uzumaki, who seemed slightly weaker.

"Kibutsuji Muzan!"

A furious shout,

The first thing that caught his eye was the swaying sun-shaped earrings. Muzan Kibutsuji's heart trembled slightly, and he instinctively crouched down, covering his head.

The blade grazed his scalp.

Blood stained his handsome face, making it appear ferocious.

Muzan Kibutsuji steadied himself, raised his head, and after seeing clearly, sneered, "Your name is Tanjiro, right?"

Not Yoriichi Tsugikuni,

For an ordinary person whose ancestors had contact with Yoriichi Tsugikuni, it was quite a shock.

However, even if Yoriichi Tsugikuni were to be resurrected now, he would only be torn to pieces by himself.

Tanjiro's eyes widened, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "Muzan Kibutsuji, I've finally caught you! I'm going to cut your neck off!"

"You think you can take me, kid?"

Muzan Kibutsuji's face was disdainful, his body shimmering with yin energy, and a layer of purplish-black [corpse skin] covered his body.

The canines protrude, and the nails are long and narrow.

It looked exactly like a corpse.

shuh...

Kibutsuji Muzan swung his arms, his fingernails slicing through the air, and four poisonous claws formed from condensed corpse energy flew out.

[Poison Zombie Controller] is an extremely rare game ability.

After all, the probability of a living person being able to fuse with [corpse poison] is not high.

Kibutsuji Muzan used his [demon body] advantage to fuse with zombie poison and bio-virus, eventually creating this bizarre gaming ability.

In essence

Kibutsuji Muzan has transformed into a zombie and can freely manipulate corpse energy.

"..."

Sensing the familiar aura of death, Tanjiro's expression turned strange.

He dodged the poisonous claws by sidestepping, and raised the longsword, forged from fine steel and enshrined on a Taoist altar for five years, imbued with the power to exorcise demons.

Approaching quickly,

Slash!

It fell as smoothly as a hot knife through butter, leaving Muzan Kibutsuji's confident expression frozen in shock.

He staggered backward, his face changing in shock, and exclaimed, "Are you an exorcist?"

"That's right."

Tanjiro, who was taken in by Uncle Nine, possesses gaming skills that he has cultivated, which are precisely for dealing with zombies.

Unexpectedly, Muzan Kibutsuji was actually a zombie.

If you had told me you were an exorcist, I would have run away much sooner. Who would stand still and let you chop them down?

Muzan Kibutsuji's expression was unpredictable, shifting between light and dark.

[Corpse Skin Lv.25] greatly enhances defensive capabilities; even if you stand still and let yourself be attacked, most weapons cannot penetrate your defenses.

I never expected my confidence to be shattered so easily.

"Goodbye, Tanjiro!"

Muzan Kibutsuji's face was cold, his killing intent surging, but in the end he still chose to retreat.

The Demon Slayer Corps always operates in groups; if he delays any longer, he will be entangled by the arriving Demon Slayer Corps.

What I want is the heart material of the Ghost General.

I don't want to cause pointless conflicts.

"Don't even think about running, Muzan Kibutsuji!"

Tanjiro exhaled scorching red mist with each breath, a result of enhanced Sun Breathing, which possessed extremely strong destructive and suppressive abilities against evil spirits.

Muzan Kibutsuji quickly retreated.

Where he had been standing, corpses crawled out of the soil, blocking Tanjiro like shields.

Roar……

The deafening roar was like a prehistoric beast awakening.

As if sensing their master's scent, the cold wind and blood rain were pulled by an invisible force, surging wildly towards the tomb.

The ghost general who broke open the tomb cave

Wearing the official robes of the Blue Kingdom, with scarlet armor underneath, he didn't have a burly figure, but the aura he exuded was so powerful that even Shanks was shocked.
