The White-haired Loli asked, "If players feel it's not worth it, wouldn't it be better not to cultivate life professions?"
"Not cultivate?"
Fang Yi laughed heartily and said, "If your Konoha Hidden Village doesn't cultivate them, does that mean the Hidden Mist Village won't?"
"Life professions can continuously produce equipment and items, like an assembly line. The equipment produced can not only be used by players but can also be directly equipped by the Ninja in the village!"
"Once someone starts, other forces will absolutely not sit idly by."
"Think about it, if war breaks out, and Kirigakure Ninja are fully armed, and both are Chunin, if they have even the lowest-grade white equipment buffs, they could easily kill Konoha Ninja of the same rank. How would you fight that war?"
"When the Ninja learn the reason is because your Hokage is unwilling to spend money to cultivate life professions, leading to extremely high death rates for Konoha Ninja during war, what will happen?"
Empathizing with the Ninja's perspective, the White-haired Loli couldn't help but clench her fists.
If she were a Konoha Ninja, even if she were indoctrinated by the Fire Will, this situation would still cause dissatisfaction with the Hokage's decisions.
By then, a decline in combat will would be minor; they might even directly storm the Hokage Building to force a change.
This is a blatant open conspiracy.
Because the Five Great Ninja Villages dare not gamble on whether other countries are willing to cultivate life professions, they can only prepare for a rainy day and cultivate them themselves first.
At that point, it will be an unstoppable arms race.
The resources and wealth consumed will all end up in Fang Yi's pocket.
...
Inside the ruined castle.
Hundreds of players gathered; even common players, knowing they were outmatched, still came with the mentality of finding a loophole.
"What a coincidence, it's Mr. Sarutobi Asuma."
A mature beauty with an alluring figure, fair skin, long brown hair, and emerald green eyes looked flirtatiously at the Konoha Squad.
Behind her stood Chojuro, with short blue hair, looking honest and simple.
Asuma frowned slightly, unfamiliar with the woman before him, and asked, "You are...?"
Had it been another Ninja village, he might have had some impression.
But the Hidden Mist Village was extremely closed off; the only well-known Ninja were the owners of the Ninja Swords who were active during the Ninja World War.
"Indeed, Kirigakure has been isolated for too long."
Mei Terumi wore a dignified smile and wasn't annoyed at not being recognized. She said, "Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Mei Terumi, and I am the soon-to-be Fifth Mizukage of the Hidden Mist Village. In a few days, a letter should be sent to your village."
"Mizukage!"
Asuma's pupils constricted, and he instinctively gripped the knuckle duster in his hand.
Then he remembered that this was the Reincarnation Game, and even the Ninja God would need to start from scratch, which immediately eased his mind.
He heard that the Hidden Mist Village had undergone significant changes recently, with a massive coup. Now it seemed the final beneficiary was this young woman before him.
She was not to be underestimated.
Mei Terumi's smile was sweet, her lips curving slightly as she gently asked, "Everyone, would you like to cooperate?"
Tsunade frowned, glancing at her opponent's ample bosom, which was no less than her own, and said, "How do you want to cooperate?"
She disliked such affected women.
"So, Lady Tsunade is also a player of the Reincarnation Game."
Mei Terumi's eyes shifted, seeing Tsunade with her arms crossed, and immediately greeted her politely.
The other party's level was too low, almost causing her to overlook her.
Chojuro stepped forward and said, "The Spectre General is not easy to deal with. After other players are exhausted, we will attack together, and the drops will be equally divided."
Neji's expression was cold as he asked, "You two want to split the drops equally with us?"
Mei Terumi smiled gently and actively displayed her attributes.
A full set of five Gargoyle pieces, plus the Vampire Scepter weapon, a complete set of Level 5 green equipment.
Level 9 Fire Mage.
This immediately put the Konoha Squad on alert.
Even Asuma, who was the highest level, barely reached Level 8, and his equipment was scattered, not a complete set at all.
Even if the entire team swarmed her, they probably wouldn't be a match for Mei Terumi.
"How is that possible?"
Naruto Uzumaki rubbed his eyes, thinking he had seen wrong.
The Reincarnation Game had only been open for less than half a month, yet their team's progress was not as good as the two from the Hidden Mist Village, who were higher level.
Tsunade sneered, "As expected of the Mizukage, such courage."
For Mei Terumi and Chojuro to possess a full set of high-level green equipment and be close to Level 10, it was certainly impossible for them to have achieved it alone.
Without a doubt, the Hidden Mist Village played a role.
"My sensei is too old and indecisive; his stance on the Reincarnation Game is still unclear."
Tsunade glanced at the impoverished Konoha Squad, and immediately understood.
"I say, do you really think the Spectre General is already yours?"
A middle-aged man wearing glasses, with a large belly, even wearing equipment, could not hide his worldly Merchant scent.
He was followed by four people, staring menacingly at the group in discussion.
Boom.
Mei Terumi suddenly attacked, sweeping her Vampire Staff horizontally.
Flames swirled, and steam boiled.
A pillar of fire erupted, like a rushing river, instantly washing over the five people who had no time to react.
Sending them directly back to the Newbie Village.
Instant kill.
Mei Terumi was no mere flower vase; to successfully lead a coup and become Mizukage in the Bloody Mist Village, she possessed not only formidable strength but also exceptional political acumen.
Showing her fangs was the best stance before negotiations.
She licked her lips, her smile unchanged, and said, "Konoha Hidden Village, what do you think?"
Asuma suppressed the shock in his heart and calmly responded, "We need to consider."
Chojuro said, "No rush. The Spectre General is in the deepest part of the ruined castle. We need to clear out the ghost army around the castle before we can finally meet the Spectre General."
"According to my observation, it will take at least two days. During this time, we await your decision."
With that said.
Mei Terumi politely bowed slightly, then twisted her slender waist and turned to leave.
Asuma's expression was serious as he said, "You all hunt the ghost army first; I need to report to the Hokage."
This situation required the Hokage's decision.
Mei Terumi's strength was beyond imagination, and he didn't believe that she was truly willing to equally distribute the spoils of war.
If they didn't have enough strength, even if they formed a cooperation, it was likely that when the Spectre General died, it would also be when the Konoha Squad was wiped out by Mei Terumi.
To obtain the Spectre General's spoils,
They must possess equal strength, or at the very least, the Hokage needed to approve and allocate funds for everyone to exchange for a set of equipment to contend with Mei Terumi.
However,
Asuma was worried. He knew his father's personality too well; without thoroughly investigating the Reincarnation Game's true nature,
He would absolutely not make a final decision until the last moment.
"The Reincarnation Game is too mysterious, possessing all sorts of incredible powers that could completely overturn the Ninja World's structure."
"If the village cannot seize the initiative in the Reincarnation Game, it is very likely to be eliminated in the coming upheaval. Father, I hope you don't get confused on this matter."
Asuma made up his mind: he must persuade the Third Hokage.
When he was young, he viewed his father as a goal, wanting to become an outstanding Ninja and Hokage like him, to protect the village.
At some point, knowing the village's dark side, he began to waver in his goal.
The Fire Will.
Under the illumination of the flames, how could such filthy maggots exist, and how could his father, as Hokage, feign ignorance?
Therefore, Asuma's heart was confused, and he left the village to become a Guardian Ninja protecting the Daimyo.
Until now.
Sarutobi Asuma logged out, took a deep breath, and ran at extreme speed towards the Hokage Building.
I also have my own Fire Will.
What is important to the village is not the Hokage, but all the weak who need protection. If wrong decisions lead to the death of those who are protected,
Such a Fire Will would absolutely not be recognized by him!
