063 Naruto Mobile Game

"An information conference is meant to reveal High-Class Recruitment ninjas in advance, as well as the new version preview."

"It includes every segment, all for the purpose of sparking players' interest and attracting them to recruit and use ninjas."

"Since Ninja Mobile Game launched, ninja skills have varied greatly, with strengths both high and low, but overall everything has remained within controllable balance."

"As the most important element of the entire game, High-Cla...

[From now on, let the world feel pain!]

[Art is an explosion!!]

Two Ultimate Scene images appeared on the light screen, one on the left and one on the right, telling the result of these two matches.

Although the skills of these four ninja were not shown directly, the audience still had a general understanding.

If Pain and Konan's side felt like a friendly spar with blows exchanged back and forth, then Deidara and Orochimaru were completely the opposite.

"Mm! Grea...

"Then, let's move directly into the live-combat segment for our ninja guests!"

Probably to commit fully to this "innovate for the sake of innovation" idea, after giving the four guests their phones, Kuroda skipped the ninja introduction entirely and sent them straight into the battle segment.

The four showed different expressions, but none objected.

Since they had agreed to come, whatever the host said to do, they would do. Isn't the host responsible for guiding the process?...

202 Getting Killed Makes Me Stronger

Jiraiya and Orochimaru were both riding atop their towering summoning beasts, each seven or eight stories tall. Standing on the ground, Kairen felt his presence completely suppressed.

So he bit his finger, then formed hand seals on the ground: "Summoning Technique!"

"Bang!"

A soft puff of white smoke exploded in midair.

Jiraiya, Orochimaru, and even Uchiha Madara who was spying from afar narrowed their eyes, wanting to know what kind of summoning beast had signed a con...

201 Getting Killed Makes Me Stronger

The Fire Daimyō unconsciously spoke the thoughts in his heart.

He suddenly froze. How did he unknowingly say what he was thinking?

He looked up and saw Jiraiya's gloomy face, along with Orochimaru's faint expression.

The Fire Daimyō's throat moved as he swallowed: "...I—I drank a little tonight, what I said just now was drunken nonsense, please don't take it seriously."

Orochimaru didn't care about this idiot's thoughts, but he was puzzled—why did the other party...

"Are you kidding me!!!"

Watching that encirclement wall — the Navy's secret plan to annihilate the Whitebeard Pirates — vanish into nothingness, bloodshot veins spread across Sengoku's eyes.

He had known all along—

Orin, that guy, would never just obediently help the Navy!!!

"Tap..."

As the encirclement wall disappeared, a figure with hands in his pockets slowly walked out from within.

Orin raised his head, looking at the Navy forces st...

"That is!!!"

"How can something like this even happen!!!?"

Everyone's figures were shrouded in shadow, and when they looked up at the sky, they suddenly saw…

Countless islands were falling toward Marineford!!!

Some of the older Marines stared at this calamity-like scene, and memories instantly surfaced in their minds.

It was more than thirty years ago.

Marineford had suffered such a catastrophe once before!!!

Sunagakure, Kazekage's office.

"Ōnoki is inviting me to join them in jointly fighting against Konoha?"

The Second Kazekage, Shamon, wore a strange expression.

Were these guys not fully awake yet? Did they really think they could defeat Konoha?

Earlier, even the three great ninja villages together couldn't take Amegakure down in the first strike.

And now they were still daydreaming about defeating Konoha?

He knew Sunagakure's overall combat...

425 Adopted by the Second Hokage!

Salamander Hanzō took the initiative to lower his posture, looking at Renya with sincere eyes.

Next, he explained the hardships the Land of Rain faced, struggling to survive in the cracks between the Four Great Nations.

He expressed his desire to gain a chance to breathe by forming an alliance with Konoha.

A faint, barely noticeable exhaustion lingered in his words.

Amegakure truly had no options left.

If Konoha refused the alliance, the country might face annih...

378 Learning Ninjutsu in a Glance

Taking in rogue ninja could be a trivial matter… or a very dangerous one.

Shinju felt there were still other secrets hidden inside Curtain Village, so after disguising himself, he slipped in!

...

At a tavern outside Curtain Village, Shinju—disguised as Sasuke—ordered a glass of milk…

Then, putting his social skills to full use, he grabbed a kind-looking middle-aged man.

"Hey, man, I heard Curtain Village takes on commissions too. Are they reliable?"

Very soon, it was time for Shizuka and Shinju to part ways. Shinju suddenly asked,

"Right—does that guy with glasses often send puppets to fight you?"

Shizuka blinked and nodded.

"Ever since I left the village, he's been tailing me constantly. We've fought almost a hundred times by now…"

Shinju nodded. "I see. Every time he fights you, he leaves a bit of his chakra inside your body. Once that chakra builds up enough, you'll end up becoming his puppet…"

Masaki shook his head. When he saw that, Kazuma was about to speak, but Masaki raised his hand to stop him.

"I'm shaking my head not because I don't know, but because I'm not sure either."

"You should know about Gekko Chizan's background. Someone shunned by the village should logically accept the proposition from the Daimyō's mansion without hesitation."

"But he's still hesitating. That's also the Daimyō's intention—he needs you to demonstrate the strength of the Daimyō...

Gekko Chizan stared at the two brats in front of him, furious that they still hadn't learned a thing. He couldn't understand it—if it were just Obito acting like this, fine.

But how could even Uchiha Shisui be this reckless?

Did they have any idea where they were right now? How could they talk so carelessly in a place like this?

That punch he threw had actually used a bit of strength, and now the two brats were clutching their heads and wailing in pain.

"Welcome to this Ninja information conference, I'm your host Kuroda, though today we seem to have a familiar face."

The information conference arrived—still the light screen, still the host, still the guests… four guests?!

The audience suddenly widened their eyes.

Among the four guests, they only recognized one, the one who had appeared before—who should also be this episode's High-Class Recruitment S—Orochimaru.

But why were there three others besides Orochima...

Tsunade had been somewhat absent-minded these past two days.

Ever since that day when Orochimaru appeared on the public screen claiming he had become a Kage, she had been like this.

Jiraiya noticed it, and after a moment of thought, he understood why.

During breakfast, Jiraiya took out several bottles of sake and placed them on the table.

Tsunade sat across from him and waved her hand at the sight.

"What are you drinking sake so early in the morning for?"

"Revival Card... I wonder if the price of this thing can even be calculated."

Orochimaru folded his arms, lost in thought.

Right now, he had 10 Coupons from reaching the Anbu rank, and 100 Coupons from advancing to Kage rank.

Come to think of it, he could be considered quite well-off.

But the Revival Card in the Coupon Shop had a question mark for its price—its exact cost depended on the person being revived.

Orochimaru thought for a moment, then reached out an...

"Didn't I say counter? Of course, that doesn't include the ban slots! Who you ban makes all the difference!"

Naruto was clearly dissatisfied with Kuroda's answer.

Kuroda sighed helplessly. Fine, aside from banning, let's remove the internal war for [Uchiha Itachi] too.

In this case, if both players' skill levels were similar, facing [Uchiha Itachi]—aside from maybe a double or even triple summon—there was really no other way.

Hearing that, Naruto slumped a little.<...

Cube Internet Café.

Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura sat together at one table, each with a very different expression.

But among the three, only Sasuke was the customer — the other two were serving him.

There wasn't much to say about Naruto. After losing to Kuroda, he had willingly accepted the bet and become a waiter for a while — without pay.

As for Sakura, she had no choice. In order to get a few techniques from Kuroda, she had volunteered to help. View Post

[Uchiha Itachi] has been online for more than half a day now.

At this point, almost every player has experienced him—either by using him personally or by fighting against him.

Thinking back to when this ninja was first revealed...

Even though many already suspected he would be strong, no one expected this kind of strength.

To put it simply—everyone now realized how serious things had become.

[Uchiha Itachi] is sweeping through the Duel Arena!

"Uchiha Itachi? Hah, perfect — I was just about to interrogate you, you bastard! Hmm!"

The updated Ninja Mobile Game was pulling players back in, and Deidara was no exception.

During Akatsuki's suspension from missions he'd been bored out of his skull, with nowhere to display his art.

He couldn't very well perform art in the Rain Hidden Village, could he?

No choice — apart from making small explosions to entertain himself, most of his time went to the Ninja Mobile ...

The first thing he did after waking up in the morning was play a round of Ninja Mobile Game to clear his mind.

This had become Sasuke's daily routine these days.

He sat cross-legged on the tatami mat, hands resting on his knees, leaning forward slightly as the glow from his phone screen illuminated his face.

At that distance, you'd believe it if someone said he'd been using the Mangekyō too much!

Shu-ta! (Sound of a successful match.)

Sasuke burst through the door like a madman, and only when he saw the figure standing inside did his tightly clenched heart finally relax a little.

The information conference had ended, and Sasuke had hurried home immediately. It seemed Mikoto had returned as well.

"Mom, are you okay? Nothing happened afterward, right?" Sasuke rushed over, his face full of worry.

The basic demonstration of [Uchiha Itachi]'s ninja was complete. Next came the highlight — the live battle session.

Time to find someone for a real fight!

Countless eyes were fixed on the light screen, watching the two figures seated inside.

Even though the chances were slim, most still hoped that they would be the ones chosen.

"May I choose my own opponent?" Itachi turned to Kuroda.

"You may," Kuroda replied with a smile.

At that moment, Itachi's true in...

The third information conference is here!

After the preview was released on the Ninja Mobile Game, everyone was ready for it... though to be honest, there wasn't much to prepare. Just sit back and watch.

But among the audience, a few people weren't exactly in the best of moods.

Sasuke, Naruto...

[A crimson killing intent walking in the shadows!]

A week had passed since the release of the High-Class Recruitment A-rank ninja [Might Guy], and now, the next A-rank was arriving.

It was a blood-colored figure, surrounded by crows spreading their wings—or perhaps, by falling feathers.

And beneath that image, there was a line of text:

[High-Class Recruitment "Might Guy" will soon be removed]

"Excuse me."

The door of Cube Internet Café swung open. There was no "welcome" sound effect—only a wave of cool, refreshing air.

Sakura carefully scanned the interior. The place looked like a cozy café, but it was empty—probably because it was noon.

Wait, no—there was someone behind the counter.

"Welcome."

Kuroda looked up just in time to see Sakura step inside. Since he was the only one running the place, he naturally had to do the greeting himself.

As the [Jiraiya] Ultimate Scene popped up, Ao shouted in disbelief.

His right eye, the Byakugan, was usually sealed with an eyepatch—but now veins bulged at the corner of his eye.

As the name suggests, it was a shop where you could only spend Coupons — newly introduced in today's update.

Victory!

Sasuke clenched his fist, finally able to relax the heart he had been holding taut all this time.

From the third ninja match onward, the outcome had already been foreshadowed.

Although [Uzumaki Naruto · First Tail] easily defeated Sasuke's second ninja, he inevitably lost a bit of HP in the process.

That small difference in HP caused Naruto to be the first to fall in the final stage of the duel.

Though he won, the atmosphere was still tense.

Of course he could play like this—he already had a huge advantage, so there was no need to be overly cautious. He could afford to be bold.
