Chapter 7: Sasuke Come and Fight with Me, Kakashi-sensei!
[Ding! Uchiha Sasuke has completed mastery of the Four Bullets of the Emperor! The host simultaneously obtains the training progress!]
[Ding! You have gained 40,000 system points!]
"What…?"
Hearing the system's notification, Su Li looked puzzled.
Although he had guessed before that system points might appear in the future,he didn't expect them to come this quickly and in such large amounts!
Another 40,000 points, just like that?
To think, if he had to earn this many points through drawing manga,it would take who knows how long to accumulate.
But now?
In such a short time, Su Li had gained 40,000 points twice in a row!
What's the difference between this and lying down collecting money?
Even more shocking it's been barely an hour since the last time he got 40,000 points.
One hour, and Sasuke already completed Four Bullets from basic proficiency to full mastery.
Was Sasuke's talent really that monstrous?
Then again…
He was the reincarnation of Indra, after all.
Having a talent this high was perfectly normal.
Actually, the higher his talent, the better.
The stronger Sasuke became, the happier Su Li felt because it meant more system points for him!
No matter how fast Sasuke trained,
Su Li didn't have to lift a finger.
He could just sit back and synchronize all of Sasuke's hard work.
"You cultivate, and I'll take the rewards for free.It's just too perfect!"
Meanwhile, on the other side…
After Sasuke regained consciousness with the mastery of the Four Bullets,he found himself in a strange situation.
"How do I get out of this manga world…?"
The thought had barely formed in his mind whenthe surrounding environment began to shift again.
In the blink of an eye, Sasuke returned from the manga world to reality.
"Incredible… Su Li- sama's manga…Could this be some kind of bloodline limit?"
In the world of shinobi, anything that defied logic was almost always assumed to be a kekkei genkaia bloodline limit.
Sasuke was no exception.
He subconsciously treated Su Li's manga as some mysterious bloodline power.
But what kind of bloodline could possibly send someone into another world…and even grant them the Emperor's Pupil?
That was beyond comprehension.
Just then, Sasuke's eyes shifted toward the clock on the wall.
It had been around four or five o'clock when he entered the manga.Now, it was barely six in the evening.
"Although there's no exact reference…I feel like at least a week passed inside that manga world…"
Could it be that… only an hour had passed in the real world?
That absurd thought sent a chill through Sasuke's heart.
To confirm, he hurriedly put the manga back on the shelf and dashed outside.
He stopped a random villager on the street.
"You there! Tell me how long has it been since the Acting Hokage's inauguration ceremony?"
The man blinked, confused by Sasuke's intensity.
"Eh? Wasn't it just this afternoon?"
The villager looked at Sasuke strangely, as if wondering if the Uchiha boy had hit his head.
"How… how could it be! It's actually true!!"
Sasuke ignored the villager's puzzled gaze, his heart storming with shock.
It really had only been about an hour!
What kind of terrifying power was this?
Even with the Emperor Keke,he couldn't have achieved such a miracle.
How strong was that man… Su Li?
For a moment, Sasuke stood frozen his awe quickly giving way to excitement.
"Hahaha… HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!"
He burst into wild laughter, trembling with exhilaration.
If a week of training inside the manga world equaled only an hour outside…then it wouldn't take long at all to reach unimaginable strength!
In addition, Sasuke could replay every battle of Tokisaki Kurumi in the manga world,analyzing each move and deepening his comprehension of the Emperor's pupil.
That alone would exponentially increase his training efficiency.
As long as he completely mastered Kekedi,he was confidenthe could kill Uchiha Itachi in seconds.
But there was one limitation.
To use the power of Kekedi freely,he needed enough time value stored within it.
Remembering this, Sasuke calmed his excitement and set off immediately toward the most damaged area of Konoha.
Kakashi had said he'd be helping with the reconstruction there.
When Sasuke arrived, he was stunned to find Kakashi… fishing lazily by a pond.All the actual rebuilding had been left to Yamato.
"Yo, Sasuke."
Kakashi greeted him casually, not too surprised.
After the Konoha Collapse Plan and Naruto leaving to train with Jiraiya,Team 7's activities had been suspended.
But knowing Sasuke, Kakashi had already expected this.He wouldn't stay idle for long.
Driven by rivalry with Naruto, Sasuke was bound to seek strengthand it was only a matter of time before he came to him.
Still, Kakashi sighed inwardly.Even if Sasuke wanted to get stronger,he wasn't sure what exactly to teach him.
Just as he was thinking that
"Kakashi sensei, I'm quitting Team 7."
"What?"
Kakashi blinked, momentarily speechless.He had just been about to offer to teach Sasuke Raikiri,but now this?
Sasuke… leaving Team 7?
Could he have already been swayed by Orochimaru?
Was he seeking the snake's power for revenge?
"Sasuke, what's going on? Why are you suddenly leaving Team 7?"
"Because I'm no longer the person I used to be.Staying in Team 7 would only waste my time and hold me back."
Kakashi's head throbbed.
He was certain now Sasuke must have been influenced by Naruto's words.And now he wanted to follow the same path toward darkness.
"Sasuke, Orochimaru is not someone you should trust"
"Orochimaru?"
Sasuke interrupted with a confused look.
Kakashi paused, startled by his expression.
"Wait… you're not planning to go to Orochimaru?"
"Orochimaru? He might not even be able to defeat me now.Why would I go to him?"
"What…?"
Kakashi stared at Sasuke, utterly dumbfounded.
Did this kid even realize how powerful Orochimaru was?
But then again…If Sasuke really intended to defect,why come talk to him openly?Wouldn't it make more sense to sneak away quietly?
That thought alone made Kakashi reassess the situation.
"It seems before we talk any further,I'll have to show you my current power."
Seeing the disbelief in Kakashi's eyes, Sasuke smiled confidently.
Last time during the bell test, he had been helpless before Kakashidefeated easily and humiliated.
But now…
"I'm not the same Sasuke I used to be!"
He clenched his fists, his eyes glimmering faintly with power.
"Come and fight with me, Kakashi sensei!"
Author's Note (PS):
Setting explanation:When using the power of Kekedi, the eyes will transform—similar to the Sharingan.However, the user can conceal it at will when not activated.This allows perfect compatibility with other ocular abilities.
