Konoha: Who's the good guy?

Shan Zhongjing looked at the many entries on his personal interface.

The opportunity to change a red entry is hard-won.

Converting ordinary entries is somewhat of a loss; the focus should naturally be on concept-related entries, fate-related entries, or entries with special effects.

The purple entry 【高天娱戏】, the blue entries 【戏命师】 and 【太奶棍】, and the white entry 【皮脆命硬】 all fall within this scope.

In terms of cost-effectiveness alone, upgrading the white attribute "crispy skin and tough body" to red is definitely more profitable.

If you remove the negative effects of this entry, such as being prone to encountering powerful enemies and life-or-death crises, from the perspective of increasing the probability of breakthroughs and survival in battle, this is definitely a protagonist's destiny.

But what if the direction of his advancement is different from what he expected, and instead of becoming the protagonist of destiny, he becomes the villain of destiny?

So, should this entry be activated or deactivated?

After some thought, Shan Zhongjing decided to rule out the "crispy-skinned and tough-as-nails" option first.

This is not reliable.

Let's talk about it another time!

Of the remaining three attributes, the blue attribute "Too Milk Stick" has a pretty good effect, but after upgrading, it will most likely have even stronger additional effects.

He currently has the golden attribute [Boundless Martial Realm] to sustain him, so he doesn't lack attack power and can postpone it for now.

The effect of [Gaotian Entertainment] is already sufficient for now.

According to his guess, further upgrades would most likely only allow him to control stronger individuals and increase the range of adjustments he could make to the strength of both sides in a battle, which would not be of much practical significance to him.

"System, use the red-label conversion card on [The Fate Weaver]."

Yamazakage's gaze lingered on the [Fate Master], whose presence wasn't particularly strong, but who was extremely useful.

Since I got this entry.

He could clearly feel that his luck was getting better and better.

One moment Danzo was thinking of entering the Root organization and gradually gaining power, the next he decisively sacrificed himself, making a selfless offering.

Black Zetsu is another one.

He never imagined he could find that sixth brother who liked to cause trouble in the shadows so quickly.

As soon as he arrived at the front line, he KO'd Rasa, and his strength surged. Black Zetsu, the adorable little cutie, rushed over to offer him comfort!

Incidentally, they also handed control of Kirigakure (Hidden Mist Village) directly to Uchiha Hikaru.

That kind of luck would be great in a casino.

If Tsunade saw this, she would definitely cry her eyes out.

[Conversion complete. Congratulations, host, you have obtained the red entry "Destiny Gimbal"]

Destiny Dial (Red): Observes the fate and destiny of humans, ghosts, spirits, and monsters, and can see their karma, blessings, calamities, longevity, and fortune. It also has a chance to foresee one's own misfortunes and blessings in advance. By actively interfering with and changing the fate of others, it can absorb a large amount of the scattered, unclaimed destiny power when others' fates undergo significant changes, thereby enhancing one's own luck. Within a range of 100 meters, it can observe the karma, blessings, luck, longevity, and fortune of others, and can view detailed values ​​through the Destiny Dial.

The system notification tone ended.

Shan Zhongjing felt a slight blur before his eyes, followed by a strange, mild dizziness. As he felt the large amount of information being poured into his mind by the system, he felt completely numb!

The red affixes in the Fate tree have effects that are truly outrageous!

Slowly absorb all the information in your mind.

He looked up at Saya and Sara, mother and daughter, standing by the stone chamber door.

Under the power of the [Destiny Sundial], several very special lines have now appeared on the two of them.

Yamanaka Kei raised his right hand, and a dense purple aura of fortune gathered in his palm, quickly condensing into a palm-sized, compass-shaped sundial.

Information about Saya and her daughter Sara was also clearly marked.

Karmic sins likely represent the value of sins, and the karmic sins on the two of them are almost undetectable.

Fortune is almost equivalent to merit, and Saya's value is extremely high, while Sara's is much lower.

In terms of luck, the two are evenly matched.

"Shou" represents lifespan; Saya was thirty-five, Sara thirty, each shorter than the other.

"Lu" represents wealth. Both characters have two values. The larger value looks quite considerable, while the value in parentheses is pitifully small.

According to the information fed into the system.

This means that the two of them have a lot of money under their control, but they don't spend it on themselves at all.

"Did you give all the money you had to the people of Loulan?"

Yamanaka Kei looked at the mother and daughter standing hand in hand in front of the stone chamber with a strange expression.

They've never done anything bad, but they've done plenty of good. Their luck is so-so, and they all die young, yet they still manage to make ends meet.

Is this Her Majesty the Queen?

This is a terrible injustice!

"Lord Jing? Do we...do we have a problem?"

Queen Saya of Loulan saw that Shan Zhongjing was looking at them with a very strange expression, so she tentatively asked him a question.

What is the average lifespan in your family?

Shan Zhongjing glanced at the various values ​​on the Destiny Gaze once more.

Soon after, he will fully integrate the armed forces in the ninja world. As the mother and daughter of the Queen of Loulan, the probability of them dying in war or accidents is extremely low.

In this situation, it's highly likely that only genetic diseases or similar issues could cause such a short lifespan.

"...Perhaps it is because we are able to communicate with the dragon vein, that since hundreds of years ago, very few Loulan queens have lived past the age of forty."

Saya's pretty face showed a hint of helplessness.

He patted his daughter Sarah's hand, which she had suddenly clenched, as if to comfort her.

"I'll give you all a medical check-up later."

Shan Zhongjing nodded slightly, not surprised at all.

The energy of the dragon vein is extremely powerful, but it also has certain negative effects.

Those who lack inherent strength and attempt to control such power will inevitably pay a heavy price.

"Is it absolutely necessary for both of them to be checked?"

A faint blush rose on Saya's cheeks.

Although she knew that Yamanaka Kage meant well, but...

Right!

"Ahem, it's just a quick check with chakra, no need for any further preparation."

The image of the landlord subconsciously surfaced in Shan Zhongjing's mind.

The examination he described seemed to be slightly different from the examination that Saya understood.

What a delightful misunderstanding!

My moral standards are still too high; I didn't even try to climb up the ladder.

"Okay, okay, then I'll have to trouble you, Lord Jing, for the time being."

Saya's cheeks instantly turned as red as if they were about to bleed, and even her neck was covered with a faint blush.

He quickly covered Sarah's eyes and took deep breaths.

This is so embarrassing!

How could the Queen of Loulan, a woman of such high status, always think about such strange things?

What should I do if I really want to lose my memory?

"It's alright, please wait a moment, I have some things to do."

Yamazakage knew that Saya needed time to calm down.

He deliberately turned his back to the two of them and sat cross-legged in front of the dragon vein control switch.

With his eyes closed, he used the golden attribute "Multidimensional Traveler" to borrow the energy of the dragon vein and sense the portals to other worlds!

hum~

An energy surge far more terrifying than the one experienced during the previous journey erupted!

Saya and Sara were pinned against the stone chamber door behind them by the sudden burst of energy and were unable to move.

Below the stone chamber, the completely liquefied, dense dragon vein energy rose up like a dragon sucking water, surging wildly into the mountain landscape, only to be rapidly consumed by the [Multidimensional Traveler].

Five minutes, ten minutes, twenty minutes...

More than an hour later.

In the distance, two distinct "gaps," one large and one small, appeared in the perception of the mountain scenery.

"Is this... the gateway to the world?"

Yamanaka reacted extremely quickly, immediately using her [Multidimensional Traveler] ability to simultaneously mark both portals.

The smaller portal was successfully recorded.

As long as he consumes energy, he can use his ability as a Multidimensional Traveler to pass through that portal and reach a node in another world.

The larger gate, however, only left a faint trace after its initial marking.

"A world with a higher level of power?"

Shan Zhongjing realized that with the convergence of a large amount of dragon vein energy, one mark after another flew out.

It took several minutes to figure it out.

Only by leaving sufficiently stable and clear markers can this portal be officially recorded and preserved!

With a satisfied smile on his face, Shan Zhongjing withdrew from the state of dimensional perception and capture.

The turbulent dragon vein energy in the stone chamber gradually subsided.

Seeing that the dragon vein energy, which was originally less than ten meters above the ground and had not been significantly depleted during the two time-space travels, had now dropped to below fifty meters, he was secretly amazed.

Fortunately, the dragon vein is connected to the entire planet, so the energy consumed can be slowly replenished.

Otherwise, how could we withstand his abuse!
