[Hinata is carried off the field. Neji looks at you with a dangerous glint in his eyes.]
[Because Hinata is someone he wants to defeat, and seeing her eliminated so dramatically by you irritates him.]
[You know that if you meet Neji in the main tournament, he definitely won't hold back.]
[Even if you don't die, you'll definitely be skinned alive.]
[As luck would have it, during the draw for the finals, your opponent turns out to be Neji.]
[Everyone says you're done for, finished this time.]
[Sasuke also looks profound: "A battle between another genius and a monster? Interesting."]
[Little do they know, you actually breathe a sigh of relief.]
[Because, thanks to your luck, your match with Neji is scheduled after Sasuke's match with Gaara.]
'That really is good luck.'
Takumi breathed a sigh of relief.
Because the fight between Sasuke and Gaara would trigger Gaara's ferocity, causing the Ichibi sealed within him to emerge.
This would be the signal for Orochimaru and Sunagakure to attack Konoha.
Naturally, he wouldn't need to fight Neji then.
[Time passes quickly.]
[The third round finals arrive.]
[On the contestant platform, you find a spot relatively close to the main viewing stand to watch the show.]
[Because you know that when Orochimaru launches his invasion later, everyone on the regular stands will be knocked out by a Genjutsu. Only the main stand is relatively safe, since the announcers and a few Anbu are there, and they remain fine even until Sandaime dies.]
[As time progresses, the matches soon reach Sasuke vs. Gaara.]
[Sasuke, using the Chidori learned from Kakashi, severely wounds Gaara, triggering his ferocity.]
[Sunagakure's Shinobi seize the opportunity to strike, casting a large-scale Genjutsu that knocks out all the ordinary people in the stands.]
[You sneak up to the roof, preparing to watch the fight between Orochimaru and Sandaime up close, alongside a few Anbu.]
'Really courting disaster by watching the excitement.'
Takumi couldn't help but complain.
But then he thought again…
Forget the luck, being here was definitely the safest spot.
Orochimaru's subordinates were busy maintaining the barrier.
He himself was busy fighting Sandaime.
They couldn't spare the hands to deal with him, otherwise, how could those Anbu be there commentating?
And even if a variable occurred, and Orochimaru came out to kill him, with this luck, Orochimaru probably genuinely couldn't kill him.
Even if Orochimaru got serious, it wasn't certain he could kill him.
Because his luck was already invincible.
[Orochimaru reveals his true identity and has his four Cursed-Seal subordinates erect the Four Violet Flames Formation, trapping Sandaime inside.]
[The Anbu outside are helpless.]
[After some conversation, the two sides begin their fight.]
[And Orochimaru prepares to unleash his ultimate move… the Impure World Reincarnation.]
[To get a better look, you sneak closer.]
[But just then, you trip, accidentally stepping on a decayed roof beam. One beam after another gives way in a chain reaction, and the roof instantly collapses, causing both Orochimaru and Sandaime to fall through.]
[The Four Violet Flames Formation is consequently broken.]
[The Impure World Reincarnation naturally fails. With assistance from others who arrive, Orochimaru retreats unwillingly in defeat.]
'Holy crap!'
'This actually works!?'
Seeing this operation, Takumi was full of surprise!
He was completely dumbfounded!
'This luck... you couldn't just call it good… it was practically maxed out, right?'
'Tripping over stops the Konoha Crush Plan… who the hell would dare believe that?!'
Takumi vaguely remembered that the Four Violet Flames Formation was incredibly powerful.
Anyone touching it would be burned.
He never expected it to be broken by him like this.
It was absolutely brimming with dramatic irony.
Taking a sip of water, Takumi continued the simulation.
[Because you accidentally saved Sandaime, you become a hero of Konoha.]
[Soon after, Sasuke, unable to resist the lure of power, is taken away by the Sound Four sent by Orochimaru.]
[Shikamaru leads Naruto and the others on a rescue mission.]
[It ultimately fails.]
[After Konoha returns to peace, the three-year time skip begins. Because of his connection to Yondaime Hokage, Naruto goes out to train with Jiraiya, while you continue doing missions with Kakashi.]
[A month later, you receive a B-Rank mission to escort a princess from the Land of Grass.]
[You travel normally for five days. However, while descending a cliffside path, you are ambushed.]
[Kakashi finds it troublesome due to the lack of manpower. You also feel it's dicey. You're at the front, and the enemy outnumbers you four to one, all appearing to be Chunin or above. You fear you might not make it.]
[But unexpectedly, the moment the assassins charge, the rock layer under their feet suddenly gives way, and they all fall off the cliff to their deaths.]
"…"
'Damn, so he really just can't die?'
Takumi rolled his eyes. He felt that with this Incredible Luck buff, he simply couldn't die no matter what.
[You are all dumbfounded, and this incident ends smoothly.]
[A month later, you receive an intelligence mission to infiltrate the Land of Waterfalls.]
[This time, you team up with Team Guy. After entering the Land of Waterfalls, everyone splits up and scouts for three days but finds nothing.]
[Just as everyone is about to give up and prepare to retreat, a mortally wounded Konoha's Shinobi, covered in blood, delivers the intelligence directly to you, who is scouting in the forest.]
[You successfully complete the mission and receive another commendation from Konoha, rewarded with 2,000,000 Ryo.]
"…"
'Alright, whatever you say.'
Takumi was too exhausted to complain.
[A month later, you get another mission, but this time it's just a patrol mission near the village.]
[You are conducting a routine border patrol when you suddenly encounter an Iwagakure's intelligence squad.]
[They spot you too and prepare to kill you to silence you.]
[But who would have thought, it suddenly starts raining. The Iwagakure's Shinobi arrogantly say, "Thunder and rain make for easy work." Then, just as you are surrounded, suddenly, divine punishment descends from the sky… a massive bolt of lightning strikes, electrocuting the entire Iwagakure's intelligence squad.]
[You receive another Konoha commendation, rewarded with 1,000,000 Ryo.]
"…"
[Three months later, while escorting an official from the Land of Hot Water back to his country, you are attacked by an assassin at Jonin-level.]
[It turns out the assassin ate something bad the previous night and suffers from vomiting and diarrhea on the spot, allowing Kakashi to easily deal with him.]
[Another month later, you are responsible for delivering classified intelligence to the allied village, Sunagakure. On the way, you are ambushed by Iwagakure's Shinobi.]
[The Iwagakure's Shinobi end up stepping on quicksand and are buried deep in the desert.]
Looking at these simulations, Takumi's expression gradually shifted from shock to numbness.
No matter the difficulty of the mission, when it came to Takumi, it would always be completed easily due to various accidents!
Especially the heavenly lightning strike… It felt like even the world was helping him!
The Black-Gold Incredible Luck talent was just too strong!
As long as he didn't actively seek death, it was simply impossible for him to die!
He might not even die if he did try to seek death!
