The preciousness of reward points needs no elaboration.
Whether it’s Orochimaru, who lacks points to exchange for research data and cutting-edge papers to enhance his foundation, or Jiraiya, who has long coveted the abilities of “One Punch Baldy,” they are both big spenders of reward points.
And for the reincarnators, the “Fate Gems” are an irreplaceable existence.
Many higher-level exchanges require Fate Gems as a prerequisite for eligibility.
For example, Devil Fruits from the “One Piece” world, the Infinity Gauntlet from the “Marvel” universe, Zanpakuto from the “Bleach” world, the True Ancestor Giant Marrow from the “Attack on Titan” world…
To exchange for these things, different levels of Fate Gems are required as upfront costs.
“Team missions… a perfect test for my research results.”
Orochimaru smirked darkly and signed his name on the KOF contract.
Then, what more could Jiraiya say?
Of the Three Ninja, he was the one with the deepest emotional attachment, how could he refuse?
With a swift stroke, he signed “Jiraiya” in cursive at the bottom of the contract.
【KOF Contract Established, Forming Team: Leader Tsunade, Member Orochimaru, Member Jiraiya.】
【When the three are in the same world, all attributes increase by 15%.】
【Team members cannot attack each other, otherwise, all attributes will be deducted by 50%.】
A cold, emotionless voice resounded in the hearts of the Three Ninja.
In this instant, their stamina, strength, speed, agility, flexibility, chakra content, mental strength, thinking speed…
Everything increased by more than ten percent!
Orochimaru instantly extinguished his little thoughts and silently crossed out a certain test item in his mind.
He didn’t care about losing half of his strength. But losing half of his memory, logical analysis ability, and thinking speed would make it impossible for him to continue studying scientific ninjutsu—that was something Orochimaru couldn’t tolerate.
So…
The Three Ninja Reincarnation Team was officially established!
As the leader, Tsunade promptly issued the first command: “Let’s exchange our cards and estimate the current team strength.”
Back when they cooperated seamlessly, but after so many years, who didn’t have a few new cards up their sleeve?
Without understanding their comrades’ capabilities, heading straight to the battlefield…
Would be fatal.
…
Konoha, 60 years, late March.
These days, the atmosphere in the village was extremely strange.
The once detested and hated “demon fox,” Naruto Uzumaki, now walking on the streets, could always attract many eyes.
People whispered behind his back, seemingly discussing something, but without malice.
“His appearance…”
“Right! You think so too, right? These eyes, this hair, this nose, this mouth, they’re exactly like the Fourth Hokage…”
“I heard that Naruto wasn’t actually the demon fox back then. He had fox features on his face before, but it was sealed into him by the Fourth…”
“Calculating the time, wasn’t he just a baby back then?”
“I remember! The Fourth’s wife, that redhead, wasn’t she a ninja from the Uzumaki clan?”
“Kushina Uzumaki, my silly son has been second in his sealing class every time. He’s been surpassed by a girl for so many years, so I definitely won’t be mistaken!”
“Wait… Uzumaki? Does that mean… Naruto is actually the Fourth’s child?”
“Gasp… The Fourth and his wife sacrificed themselves to save Konoha! What have I been doing these years!”
“Sob… I’m sorry to the Fourth! He saved my life back then…”
“Why! Why didn’t the Third tell us Naruto’s true identity?!”
“Conspiracy! There must be a conspiracy!”
The Third Hokage and the Elder Council, as if under a genjutsu cast by the Sage of the Six Paths himself, completely ignored the reports from the ANBU and let the torrent of public opinion rage, showing no intention of intervening.
“Hehe…”
Although someone always talked quietly about him, Naruto was increasingly enjoying the feeling of walking around.
Now when he went out, no one threw rotten eggs or tomatoes at him, no one called him a monster, and no one unreasonably attacked him.
This feeling, it’s really nice…
“A bowl of small fried fish miso ramen! Extra-large! With extra ginger, pickled vegetables, scallions, and seafood rolls!”
Naruto, who had meticulously studied the “Asian Makeup Sorcery Quick Guide,” had already covered his whiskers with concealer powder. Just a bit of light makeup made his features more refined and three-dimensional.
With golden strands fluttering in the wind, his red-and-white no-word robe moved without wind, and his azure eyes were as clear as the sky, always smiling brightly, exuding a charming charm.
Just like a little sun radiating infinite light and warmth.
The owner of the ramen shop looked at Naruto in a daze, feeling sentimental, his eyes slightly reddening.
“Oh, oh, oh, oh!!! Uncle Ichiraku, what’s going on?”
“Haha! Nothing! Today, Uncle is happy, no matter how much you eat, it’s all free!”
The owner laughed exaggeratedly and called out to his daughter, “Ayame! Come and help! Our distinguished guest is here!”
Originally, Handa didn’t believe the rumors and gossip in the village these past few days; he just treated them as a topic of conversation after dinner.
Seeing Naruto now, he dared to affirm the answer.
Naruto Uzumaki is the Fourth Hokage’s descendant!
Looks can change, but the temperament passed down to the bone marrow is impossible to imitate!
Thinking of Naruto’s experiences over the years, a wave of guilt surged up in Handa’s heart.
“Ohhh!!! Ayame, put your heart into it, I want to offer the best dishes to our most esteemed guest!”
“Got it!”
Although she didn’t know what her dad was doing, Ayame, who loved the family business, also put in twelve points of enthusiasm.
Naruto blinked and waited quietly.
