……

The sky was pitch black, and a crescent-shaped blood moon hung high in the sky.

The surrounding area was filled with thick black mist, and even when the Lv.40 [Necrosensory] was released, it could not sense any aura.

A huge niche, like a stone tablet, is rooted in the center of the boundless black mist.

The interior bears the imprint of the cycle of reincarnation.

Soft white light spilled down, illuminating a space roughly the size of two football fields.

"The Black Myth season actually has Dark Gold-tier items?"

Looking at the information about the new season, Orochimaru, who had been teleported to the edge of the glowing shrine of reincarnation, had his slightly gleaming snake eyes radiate golden light.

[Necromancer Lv.45], Orochimaru.

He crouched down, placing his palms on the ground covered with dark gravel.

He pulled out his necromancer's staff and smashed his palm with a single blow.

Black blood flowed out, transforming into countless cursed snakes emitting black smoke and wildly writhing their tails, which quickly swam out of the area shrouded in the light of the Samsara Shrine.

Perspective revealed,

Countless visions appeared in Orochimaru's mind, silent and still, as if the world had fallen into a deathly stillness.

This sense of death was even greater than the undead kingdom he had created.

puff.

There was nothing unusual.

The vision in his mind suddenly vanished, like a burst soap bubble; all the hundreds of cursed snakes that had left the cycle of reincarnation were killed.

At the last moment, Orochimaru vaguely glimpsed the monster that killed the cursed snake.

A bandit dressed in tattered clothes, black mist seeping from his skin as if he were wearing black armor, his arms twisted with flesh and blood and intertwined with the rusty machete, as if they were natural.

【Fallen Mountain Bandit (Black Wind Mountain) Lv.55】

"Mountain bandits?"

Orochimaru's expression changed slightly. He was a man of great experience and knew that, in any world, bandits were at the very bottom of the food chain.

Even a regular monster is level 55. Is this the [Tier 4] Black Myth map?

at this time,

Several beams of teleportation light appeared.

"Grandma Tsunade, can you please stop gambling on forging? Your luck is just too bad!"

"Am I just unlucky?"

Clad in pure white armor, with exquisite features resembling a holy messenger, Tsunade sneered, "Since I'm so unlucky, how could I possibly cultivate a Corpse Guardian? You're the worst Abomination Butcher!"

"I have no idea……"

Naruto squinted, looking extremely frustrated.

Mature zombie pets can evolve into various forms.

Tsunade's pet, [Rotten Guardian], is an extremely rare mutant, and also a rare Holy Light Defense type pet.

But he himself was just an ordinary, despicable butcher.

"That's really strange."

Jiraiya, standing nearby, gave the dashing Tsunade a lecherous glance, then quickly looked away before she could react, and said seriously, "Naruto has always been lucky, but Tsunade... you're called a fat sheep by the gamblers of Tanabata Street, and now it's the other way around."

"snort."

Tsunade smiled confidently, "As a player, I have long since escaped my former fate. Now, I am the God of Gamblers."

can only say,

Although Naruto Uzumaki was favored by fate, he couldn't withstand the bloodsucking of the Konoha ninja clans and the Kage organization. His luck in the [Tier 1] Ninja World Source Conversion was simply not enough to withstand the drop of [Tier 2] items.

As for Tsunade...

"This is quite a scene, Tsunade, you idiot Jiraiya."

A sudden sound,

Tsunade and Jiraiya turned their heads almost simultaneously to look at the figure slowly walking in from the shadows.

Orochimaru!

Former best friends have now become enemies who will destroy Konoha.

Tsunade's delicate eyebrows furrowed, her anger undisguised, and she said coldly, "Orochimaru, what a small world!"

boom.

The thick cross, covered with holy symbols, was slammed into the ground by Tsunade like a stone pillar.

Jiraiya's expression was initially complex, then filled with murderous intent as he said, "Orochimaru, I told you, whoever betrays Konoha, I will kill him!"

"You think you can take it?"

Orochimaru's golden snake eyes scanned Jiraiya's exposed weaknesses with disdain.

[Prophet Lv.41]

The Fire Empire also has [Prophets], whose skills are mostly used to support teammates, but their combat power is very weak.

Tsunade is a Paladin Level 43. Although the Holy Light attribute is a hard counter to her own necromancer,

However, there are limits to restraint in relationships.

If a real fight breaks out, as long as the weak Jiraiya is killed first, Tsunade will be unable to withstand the attack alone.

only……

Orochimaru glanced at Naruto Uzumaki, whose face looked like he was constipated.

According to intelligence, the opponent is also a Holy Light type [Temple Knight Lv.42], who has made a contract with Konoha as a [Temple]. The more severely Konoha is destroyed, the stronger they become.

It's rather troublesome.

However, I am not fighting alone.

"Naruto Uzumaki, how have you been lately?"

With white bandages wrapped around his fists and pure Nen energy swirling around him like mist, Neji Hyuga, the current head of the new Hyuga clan who was considered a traitor, appeared in Naruto Uzumaki's field of vision.

"Neji!"

Naruto Uzumaki's expression froze, a dull ache in his heart.

It's so painful to see my best friend, who once fought alongside me, betray Konoha and stand beside the enemy.

He demanded angrily, "Why did you betray Konoha?"

He had wanted to ask this question since the day Konoha was destroyed, and now he finally had the chance.

"Didn't you tell me that?"

Neji calmly said, "Fate can be broken. Even a bird locked in a cage can one day soar freely."

Naruto Uzumaki asked incredulously, "In your eyes, is Konoha and my comrades really such a despicable thing?"

He pointed at Orochimaru and said, "Are you going to serve under this guy who conducts human experiments, plants cursed seals on innocent people, and enslaves them?"

Although he was the strongest player, he was infamous and ostracized by players in the ninja world.

It's related to Orochimaru's cruel acts.

"A cursed seal, a slave?"

Neji curled his lips into a sarcastic smile and shook his head, saying, "So, Naruto Uzumaki, even though you and I both gained immense power from the Rinne Game, compared to me, you're more like a bird trapped in a cage."
