Orochimaru, one of the Legendary Sannin of Konoha, is a veteran powerhouse who has made great contributions to the village. The fact that such a person has become a rogue ninja has made him the hottest topic in the village for a time.
Listening to the chatter of the passing crowd, Shingetsu Seiun froze in place—he had originally wanted Orochimaru to help him try the Impure World Reincarnation.
Unexpectedly, while he was busy with work, Hiruzen Sarutobi actually made a move.
It wouldn't have mattered if they hadn't contacted him before taking action, but Orochimaru's defection made finding him to cooperate in performing the Impure World Reincarnation technique several times more troublesome.
Should we chase after them?
However, chasing after them would require a different amount of effort than slowly trying to learn the Impure World Reincarnation technique on your own.
After thinking for a moment, he asked the system.
'System, if Kushina is resurrected using Edo Tensei, would that count as a true resurrection?'
[Permissions not granted; unable to provide further information.]
The answer was as expected.
Similar situations have occurred before. Because the system has a sensitive word mechanism, some tasks of the system sometimes do not have a complete literal meaning and require the user to have a very good 'understanding' of them.
If he doesn't understand that what he's doing doesn't meet the system's inherent requirements, then sorry, it's not considered complete.
If he understands but pretends not to, and only goes through the surface meaning, then sorry, that doesn't count as a completion.
Just like Misaka-sensei's current task: Uchiha Misaka. The system's task prompts can only go this far; the rest he has to understand and complete himself.
Want to ask a question?
Sorry, the system mechanism does not allow it.
Seeing the words "Permissions not granted, unable to provide information," Shenyue Xingyun sighed softly and was about to close the panel when the message suddenly changed.
[Severe depletion of host chakra detected.]
[The host has been found to have damaged 7 bed sheets in order to complete the task; commendable attitude.]
No recent negative task records were detected.
[System review in progress... Review passed.]
[This permission is being temporarily granted once; please inform me if you require it.]
[Regarding the quest (Resurrect, His Lover): After being resurrected using Edo Tensei, one remains in an Edo Tensei body; even if control is broken, the resurrection quest is not considered complete.]
[The host must use methods such as reincarnation and life force cards to truly revive the target character in order to fulfill the reward conditions.]
Shenyue Xingyun was somewhat surprised to see a series of prompts on the panel.
He suddenly felt a sense of relief; at least his recent efforts hadn't been in vain. The system had recognized his hard work and rewarded him with detailed notification privileges, saving him a lot of time.
“Reincarnation, Life Force Card…” Shenyue Xingyun murmured to herself.
The Samsara Innate Technique requires the Samsara Eye to be used, and he doesn't yet have a way to obtain it, but he does have a Life Force Card.
It's in the growth quests for Uzuki Yugao.
Therefore, completing the task before the task settlement time should not be a problem.
"Oh, Yugao, Yugao."
"Grow up quickly..."
...
"Kurenai, do you have time this weekend evening?" Kurenai Yuhi, who was eating ramen at Ichiraku Ramen, looked up in surprise when she heard Sarutobi Asuma's question.
She had just bumped into Asuma on the street and, unable to resist his enthusiasm, reluctantly agreed to have a bowl of ramen with him at Ichiraku Ramen. Before she'd even taken a couple of bites, Sarutobi Asuma asked her this question.
Kurenai asked in confusion, "What's wrong, Asuma?"
"busy?"
Sarutobi Asuma chuckled and scratched his head: "Well... it's my birthday this weekend. You know, I never celebrate my birthday at home, and I especially don't want to see the old man's face, especially after what happened with Orochimaru. The old man acts like I owe him money all the time... so I was asking if you're free this weekend."
Kurenai looked troubled: "Just the two of us?"
“Of course not.” Sensing the change in Kurenai Yuhi’s attitude, Asuma Sarutobi, though he had expected it, was still somewhat disheartened. He explained, “It’s not just the two of us.”
"There are also a few classmates from the same year, my brothers, and Xingyun will come if she has time."
Kurenai raised an eyebrow: "He said he would come?"
Sarutobi Asuma shook his head: "No, I haven't told him yet, I asked you first."
"But given our relationship, he'll definitely come if he has the time."
Upon hearing this, Kurenai Yuhi breathed a sigh of relief.
She said, "How could Shen Yuexing possibly agree to come?"
That was the sweet time she and the other person had agreed to spend together.
Attack of Kurenai Yuhi (Free Bonus Chapter)
With her heart at ease, Kurenai looked at Sarutobi Asuma, who was looking at her expectantly, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, Asuma."
Sarutobi Asuma felt a pang of pain in his heart.
For a moment, he was so sad that he could hardly breathe, but he still had to pretend to speak in a normal tone.
"What, you...aren't you coming?"
Kurenai shook her head: "No, what I mean is... I had a very important mission that day."
"So I might only have time during the day, and at night... I'll leave earlier."
"Oh, I see~" Sarutobi Asuma breathed a huge sigh of relief, his mood instantly lifted from hell to heaven. "I thought you weren't coming."
"It's okay, Hong, my birthday party is during the day."
Kurenai Yuhi was taken aback.
Didn't they just ask her if she was free on the weekend evening? Did she misremember?
Sarutobi Asuma: "It's a deal then, see you this weekend afternoon."
Kurenai Yuhi nodded: "Okay, see you there."
The two parted ways at the entrance of the ramen shop. Watching Sarutobi Asuma wave goodbye, Kurenai Yuhi felt a complex mix of emotions—guilt and pity.
He understood Asma's feelings for him all along.
But there was no way around it. She already had Nebula.
Although Nebula is a little bit of a womanizer, although Nebula is a little bit busy, and although Nebula may not be as careful and accommodating as Asuma in every way, he is still... Nebula!
As she reached the next corner, her complicated feelings subsided, and she began to look forward to the weekend evening.
"What kind of clothes should I wear... How about a skirt?"
"Nebula would find it more convenient to wear a skirt."
"No, we've already agreed on what we're going to do tonight, so skirts and pants won't affect anything."
"But the dress is prettier!"
"As for the skirt... which earrings should I wear with it?"
Forgetting about Sarutobi Asuma, Kurenai Yuhi was caught in a dilemma.
She had been looking forward to the weekend evening's activities for far too long. Ever since she returned to the village, she had been eagerly anticipating them.
She knew that Shenyue Xingyun knew more than just her, and she also knew that Shenyue Xingyun had not yet acknowledged her official identity, but... she was willing to do so.
Even when Shenyue Xingyun didn't mention his identity, she would consciously avoid bringing it up and quietly stay by his side as a 'teammate' and 'friend'.
For no other reason than she knew that if she asked, Shenyue Xingyun probably wouldn't refuse to let her become his new girlfriend, but she... didn't want to.
Becoming someone's girlfriend isn't something she looks forward to; on the contrary, it's the lack of a formal relationship that excites her.
It's like secretly enjoying someone else's things.
Like instant noodles during class, like a secret relationship forbidden by parents, like taking advantage of the other person's girlfriend cooking in the kitchen...
Overall, it felt great.
After agonizing for a while, Yuhi Kurenai still hadn't decided what to wear that night, so she decided to think about it later.
Feeling the anticipation in her heart, she thought to herself: I need to go to Asma's birthday party early this weekend night, and come back early.
We must not keep Nebula waiting too long.
…In the following days, besides finishing her tasks as quickly as possible, Kurenai Yuhi also prepared for her weekend date.
She was very well prepared.
"Nebula, we've made a date. It'll be at the little bamboo house at 8 PM this weekend, okay?"
"Why not at home? Because the little bamboo house is where we first... first held hands~ What, don't you like it?"
"Alright, it's a deal. See you there!" Under the starry sky, Kurenai Yuhi felt the cool breeze and looked up as she spoke.
...
"Asuma, what time does the party start? Four o'clock, right?"
"It's okay, I can go, but I probably can't stay too long. I'll probably have to leave around six o'clock."
"Don't worry, the mission will be fine. You don't need to help. You should enjoy your time with your friends," Kurenai Yuhi said to Asuma Sarutobi.
...
"My dearest father."
"Huh? I didn't do anything wrong. I just have something to tell you."
"You know Sarutobi Asuma, right? Yes, that friend who looks older than his age. It's his birthday this weekend."
"Yes, we have a party planned for tonight, maybe a little later."
"Don't worry, they're all my old classmates and friends. Someone will take me back."
"Okay, don't worry, I'll be back as soon as possible." At home, Kurenai explained to Shinku.
"Okay, remember to come back early." Looking at her beautiful and lovely daughter, Yuhi Mako said with a smile.
