Konoha's Mission Master

Fugaku Uchiha helped Uchiha Ken'en, who was slumped on the ground, to his feet, thanked him several times, and then the two left.

Yakumo stood there for a moment, then turned and left.

Although being identified was very unpleasant, compared to anger, his extremely high intelligence...

This will allow him to remain calm and analyze the unusual aspects of the incident.

Currently... persuading people with reason is also a good outcome.

The mysterious force's goal is nothing more than to sow discord between Yakumo and Konoha. If Yakumo rashly overturns the table, he will fall into the enemy's trap.

That night, Yakumo brandished his sword in the courtyard... and his heart gradually calmed down.

Only the chilling glint of blades remained in the courtyard, constantly appearing and disappearing.

On the steps beside her, Masako Mori looked up at the quiet boy.

At 10 p.m. that night, after taking Masako Mori home.

Yakumo opened the game interface.

Rainbow-like, vibrant words appeared before my eyes.

[Anniversary celebration, limited-time event, more than just flash sales.]

At the same time, the arena will settle the results.

[Note: Players will receive one Eternal Scroll upon clearing the first six levels of the Arena.]

The Eternal Scroll

Item Description: Can be used for physical attribute breakthroughs.

Hint: Available for sale, price: 100,000 gold coins.

The explanation of the Eternal Scroll is too simplistic, but Yakumo clearly understands the preciousness of this scroll.

Some time ago, when he broke through the seventy-point attribute limit of his physique, he spent two Dao Transformation Scrolls.

According to the game system's inertia, when the physical attributes reach 80 points, it should take three Dao Transformation Scrolls to break through the extreme value.

Therefore, when breaking through to ninety points, the Eternal Scroll was used.

Therefore, the Dao Transformation level is the limit of skill proficiency, and it cannot be improved further.

At that time, perhaps the only way to become stronger is to improve physical attributes.

Yakumo felt a little downcast and looked at the Glory Sword Box beside him.

"So... even swordsmanship has its limits."

As soon as the thought crossed his mind, Yakumo shook his head vigorously.

"No, I should firmly believe... this blade can cut through everything!"

A few seconds later, Yakumo's eyes sharpened.

Wave your hand to open the anniversary store.

Let him see what this year's limited-edition item is all about.

"The Vicious Curse of the Big-Headed Doll"

Additional tip: You can spend 15000 gold to waive the cost. Players will receive a free cost waiver the first time they use this item.

"This prop looks a bit strange..." Yakumo murmured.

The item icon on the game interface is a somewhat worn-out cloth doll with blood-red eyes and bloody tears flowing from the corners of its eyes. The doll's lips are in a semi-circular shape, revealing its anger and dissatisfaction.

The head is approximately two to one in proportion to the body.

Yakumo quickly discovered the sinister intentions of the game system.

In other words, he only needs to spend 15000 gold coins for the game system to locate a person and continuously launch a mental attack on them.

"Buy."

Anyway, it doesn't cost any money.

Swish.

A tattered, big-headed doll appeared in Yakumo's hand, surrounded by a faint gray aura, its mouth cracking open... revealing a mouthful of sharp teeth.

But you can't see any other...mystery.

Yakumo controlled a wisp of chakra within his body and merged it into the big-headed doll, but it was like a clay ox entering the sea, producing no change and no energy fluctuations could be detected.

A ball of azure light enveloped the big-headed doll...

There was still no response.

Yakumo lowered his guard and was about to put it into a storage scroll.

The gray gas around the blood-soaked, large-headed doll became somewhat dense, and the orange lights in the room suddenly went out.

Yakumo immediately became alert and released his right hand from the big-headed doll.

The next second... it opened its mouth wide.

"Click".

Yakumo's body surged with golden light, and he instantly teleported two meters away, successfully dodging the sudden attack.

The golden light illuminated the bedroom.

On the bed, the big-headed doll looked dull and lifeless, as if nothing had happened, but Yakumo knew for sure that it wasn't an illusion.

There's something wrong with that big-headed doll.

"You get what you pay for, and freebies are usually scams."

Yakumo carefully took two steps forward and formed a hand seal.

"The Yin and Yang are sealed off."

Two-tone…chains spread across the bed.

The big-headed doll was firmly sealed, eventually transforming into a small black and white ball.

Not feeling at ease, Yakumo added several more layers of seals.

Several hours later, the big-headed doll did not break free of its seal.

The big-headed doll showed no unusual behavior.

Yakumo took out a piece of white paper and wrote Orochimaru's name on it.

With a snap, the seal was broken.

The black and white ball shattered, and the big-headed doll fell onto the table.

Yakumo immediately followed the instructions and pasted the note on it. Blood tears flowed from the big-headed doll's eyes, and the faint sound of a baby's laughter could be heard in his ears.

Gray gas rose and diffused upwards…

A map was formed floating in mid-air, with three red dots clearly visible.

"Orochimaru not only survived, but also learned mitosis??"

……

Chapter 277 Fierce Battle with Orochimaru

Inside the bedroom, gray mist gathered and formed a map.

Yakumo focused his gaze and quickly found the red dot representing himself. Based on this analysis, the remaining two red dots represented Orochimaru.

But... why are there two red dots?

Could he really have mitosis...?

Yakumo observed the map and found that the gray map clearly outlined the routes between the red dots, somewhat like the navigation software from his previous life.

Anything produced by the game system is bound to be a pleasant surprise.

Yes... it could also be fright.

Click.

He carried the Glory Sword Box on his back.

Yakumo jumped into the courtyard, intending to go directly to deal with Orochimaru.

Suddenly, a semi-transparent, large-headed doll appeared in the void, floating in front of Yakumo like a road sign, guiding the way.

Its feet moved nimbly, like a wildcat gliding along a wall.

Konoha was quite quiet at night, with only the Anbu patrolling the streets. Yakumo could easily have evaded the Anbu's inspection.

But in the end, he deliberately revealed himself, stepped out of the shadows, and stood quietly in the middle of the deserted street.

If you want to clear up the doubts, the simplest way is to let them see Orochimaru and prove that he is still alive.

"Who goes there?" The secret service immediately rushed over from a distance.

The dark shadows approached from all directions like a pack of hunting wolves.

"it's me."

"So it's Lord Yakumo."

The leader of the secret service stopped ten meters away, offering a respectful greeting. His eyes, hidden behind the eagle mask, were filled with caution and vigilance as he silently reached for the weapon at his waist.

"Just letting you know, Hokage-sama, Lord Fugaku Uchiha, I've discovered Orochimaru's trail inside Konoha." Yakumo stared into his eyes beneath the Anbu mask.
