Chapter 140 Second Generation Summoning
[Ding! The so-called premium lottery...]
The system's electronic voice echoed quietly in Akali's mind.
A moment later, Akali understood.
In past draws, she has obtained some good items, such as the passive effects of Undying Thunder, Ice Phoenix, and Janna.
But these things didn't really improve her much.
The passive of Undying Thunder provides Akali with the lightning attribute, while Janna's passive provides Akali with the wind attribute.
The problem is that in Valoran, the Undying Thunder is a god, and so is Janna.
How could their abilities have only improved by such a small amount?
In the past, Akali's personal attribute improvements were achieved through equipment obtained through gacha pulls.
But this is incorrect, because emotional points are a higher level of lottery than money. Even if Akali doesn't rely on money for the lottery, relying solely on emotional points should be enough to improve her abilities.
In the past, ordinary emotional value lotteries had limits; there was only so much that could be given.
But things are different now. The Advanced Emotion Lottery has crossed the line. Whether it's a demigod, a Protoss, or an Ascended, as long as you draw it, you will be granted Akali's essential power!
This is the essence of the advanced emotional value lottery.
As for the teammate panel, that's simple.
In other words, Akali can see the stats of people who have a high affinity with her and can be her teammates, and know their current status.
Furthermore, Akali can also pass on her abilities to her teammates.
This kind of instruction is supported by a systematic approach, making it far more direct and essential than ordinary teaching. As long as the learning conditions are met and the teacher is willing to teach, the student can learn!
"In other words, is it still possible for me to cultivate power now if I wanted to?"
"Hmm, it doesn't seem very interesting..."
Akali has no interest in building up her power.
However, having this ability is not bad; she can improve Hinata's strength.
Furthermore, with the teammate panel, if she goes off to explore and Hinata encounters danger, and there's no way to notify her through the Flying Thunder God Mark, Akali can also find out through the panel and return.
Similarly, the same applies to the area around Feng Hua Xiao Xue.
The reason why Kazama Koyuki hasn't run into any problems right now is because she's in the remote Land of Snow. As a minor actress, she's far from the ninja world. But things will be different later. Maybe someone will dig up the connection between the two of them?
After reviewing the system update, Akali looked at the paused lottery interface again.
"Should we smoke another one?"
"Forget it, I'll just smoke it!"
"System, grant me ten chances to draw emotions points in the lottery!"
Akali currently has 300,000 emotion points, and even after ten more draws, she'll still have 200,000. She's still 800,000 away from a million.
After the collapse of Konoha, Akali will enter a period of accumulating emotional points.
Since that's the case, there's not much difference between keeping 100,000 more or less. Besides, you can teach others the skills you can't use yourself, so there's even less of a problem.
What if I get something good?
With Akali confirmed, the results of the next round of draws have emerged.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have won a prize through the emotion value lottery!]
[Skills: Thunderclap, Dragon's Tail, Passive: Mirror Image, Skill: Shadow Clone, Skill: Counterattack Storm, Summoner Spell: Heal, Summoner Spell: Clarity, Runes: Magical Footwear, Runes: Perfect Timing, Runes: Gathering Storm, Runes: Biscuit Delivery!]
"oh!!?"
"I actually got something good!"
Akali snapped to attention upon seeing the rune named Gathering Storm.
After all, the effect of Gathering Storm increases attack or spell power over time, which is perfect for her!
I got Gathering Storm, so it doesn't matter if the other runes I got this time are pretty useless!
"By the way, could we give away those stopwatches and magic boots?"
"I must say, this stopwatch actually looks pretty good!"
Akali fiddled with the gold and blue pocket watch on her wrist, planning a little surprise for Hinata.
But the next day, before Akali could even go looking for Hinata, the Second Hokage's ANBU found her first!
Akali opened the door and found that it was someone she knew!
"Hey, Sai, you've successfully switched jobs?"
Akali was very surprised to see Sai standing outside her door.
"Hehe, Miss Akali, please don't make fun of me!"
Even Sai showed a hint of helplessness when talking about him now:
"As Danzo's teacher, it's only natural for the Second Hokage to take over Danzo's Root organization. What kind of job-hopping is that?"
“Indeed!” Akali nodded in agreement.
If a transmigrator like her were to fight Danzo, it would take a lot of effort. But it would be different if it were Tobirama Senju. He could kill Danzo with just the principles of law and reason. It would be a proper father beating his son.
After a brief chat, Sai regained his serious expression: "Miss Akali, please come with me. The Second Hokage wishes to see you!"
"Let's go, let's go!" Akali was also very enthusiastic.
After all, this was her first time officially meeting the Hokage.
Akali originally thought that the first person she would formally meet was the Third Hokage, and that there might be some scheming and verbal sparring between the two.
As a result, well, now look what's happened. The three Danzos have all been ruined, but Tobirama Senju has been brought out instead. Who can we complain to now?
Following Sai's footsteps, Akali headed towards the outskirts of Konoha.
Along the roadside, human traces are becoming fewer and fewer, while natural traces are becoming more and more numerous.
Just as Akali was wondering if Sai was planning to find a place to kill her, Sai stopped in his tracks.
"arrive!"
"Hmm?" Akali looked up and saw a series of somewhat dark buildings rising and falling with the terrain in the dense forest.
Judging from its atmosphere, this definitely comes from one of Danzo's secret bases!
"Are you sure this is it?" Akali asked with a questioning expression.
“Yes, I’m sure!” Sai nodded. “Please come with me!”
Sai walked ahead and stepped into the building. The two first passed through a barrier and then entered a room, where they experienced a high-tech and standardized cleaning and disinfection process.
Akali then realized that she had misunderstood Danzo. This was actually Orochimaru's original research base in Konoha, and it was originally the Second Hokage's research base.
Akali finally managed to enter the building and arrived at a small room.
"Creak—" The heavy little door slowly opened, revealing a pitch-black depth inside!
Akali touched the door, sensed it for a moment, and discovered that it was actually a lead door!
"Please come in, Miss Akali!" Sai's voice rang out at the right time.
Akali: "..."
Now she really wanted to ask, "Deep inside the laboratory, in a room with lead doors, are you sure there won't be any problems?"
However, since she was already there, and considering that Danzo's remnants should not be targeted at her, Akali stepped into the room.
"Oh!"
The door behind him closed and locked, the gaps completely sealed, and a heavy feeling suddenly came over him.
Akali was shocked to discover that the small room was completely sealed, with no air circulation whatsoever!
If someone adds another layer of space-time-restricting ninjutsu to the outside, Akali won't be able to escape even with Flying Thunder God Technique!
"What does this mean? Are you really going to mess with me?" Akali was completely baffled.
Fortunately, Akali has excellent night vision, allowing her to navigate through the shadows as if she were returning home.
Aside from being initially drawn to the eeriness of the place, Akali quickly discovered a Flying Thunder God Kunai that had been deliberately placed on the ground.
Akali understood.
She picked up the Flying Thunder God Kunai and infused it with some chakra.
The next second, with a crisp clang of armor, Tobirama Senju appeared beside Akali.
"Don't resist, I'll take you away!"
Tobirama Senju grabbed Akali's shoulder, and for a moment, both of them felt a blur.
A room that was still closed, but was noticeably brighter and more lively, appeared in front of Akali.
It's clear that Tobirama Senju frequented this place.
"What's going on? Why are you being so mysterious?"
Akali didn't quite understand.
"There's no other way; the situation is dire!"
Tobirama Senju had a serious expression on his face.
"But we'll talk about that later. For now, take a look at this!"
Tobirama Senju gestured to Akali to look at the table.
“Alright!” Akali walked up to the table, wanting to see what tricks Tobirama Senju was up to.
There wasn't much on the table except for one form: the Jonin Registration Form!
From ninja numbers to photo booth pictures, to the Hokage's office stamp, and Tobirama Senju's personal signature, everything is included.
The only thing missing was Akali's signature.
What this means is simple: all Akali needs to do now is sign this, and she can immediately become a Konoha Jonin!
"Wow, such great treatment!" Akali exclaimed.
“This is what you deserve!” Tobirama Senju said, “During Orochimaru’s Konoha Crush plan, you faced Orochimaru and the Third Kazekage alone and defeated them. Your strength and contribution deserve this Jonin badge!”
"Is that so..."
Akali picked up the Jonin registration form and examined it carefully.
Since Tobirama Senju was so open, Akali went straight to the point, stating frankly:
"Let me make this clear first: I'm someone who values my freedom. If I don't want to, I won't obey the Hokage's orders!"
"So for me, it doesn't matter whether I'm a Jonin or a Genin!"
"I prefer doing something interesting rather than tedious tasks!"
“I know!” Tobirama Senju nodded again.
"Huh!" Akali looked at Tobirama Senju in surprise.
Her words were even more arrogant than "obey orders but not proclamations," and Akali hadn't expected that ignoring orders and proclamations would be accepted.
"Hehe!" Seeing Akali's reaction, Tobirama Senju chuckled. "Don't confuse me with Sarutobi, little girl!"
"I am not the kind of tyrant who tries to control everything and kills people if he can't control them."
"You were born in Konoha, grew up in Konoha, and all your relatives and friends are in Konoha. If Konoha is really in danger, how could you possibly stand idly by?"
"Besides, you said yourself that you won't listen unless you're willing, which means we can actually discuss it!"
"Besides, you're a ninja, you need to take on missions to earn money, right?"
With that, Tobirama Senju spread his hands, revealing a cunning expression: "You're not like Orochimaru; you won't completely give up these things!"
For Tobirama Senju, as long as Akali was willing to become a Jonin, then no matter what, the meat would rot in the pot, and that was enough.
"Indeed, it seems you had already investigated me beforehand!"
Akali understood Tobirama Senju's thoughts.
In fact, Tobirama Senju was right.
To be honest, Akali really liked his attitude.
That's exactly what we should do—lay everything out in the open. What's the point of scheming and calculating?
"I agree to your terms!"
Akali quickly signed the Jonin registration form in her hand.
Then she slammed the Jonin registration form on the table: "Now you should tell me why we have to be so careful when we meet, right?"
"Yes!" Tobirama Senju carefully put away the Jonin registration form.
"Why are we so cautious about even meeting each other...?"
"Because we, or more precisely, my older brother, discovered something!"
"That is, Konoha is now under the complete surveillance of a mysterious force!"
"A strange creature is hiding in the big trees, in the flowerpots by the street, and beneath our feet... watching Konoha!"
"what?"
Akali was stunned by Tobirama Senju's words.
Why does this description of Tobirama Senju sound so familiar?
Isn't that a White Zetsu?
The first and second generation have returned, and even the White Zetsu have noticed them. That's incredible!
Looking at Akali, Tobirama Senju clearly misunderstood.
"You're surprised too, aren't you? But unfortunately, your judgment is reliable; Konoha is indeed under surveillance right now!"
"Otherwise, why would I go through all this trouble to see you?"
Tobirama Senju gestured to his surroundings.
In order to meet Akali, he specially built a lead house that no creature could penetrate.
“Indeed!” Akali nodded, and after recovering from her surprise, she had some idea of why she had come today.
"So, Second Generation, is there something you want me to do?"
“That’s right!” Tobirama Senju nodded again. “My brother and I have devised a plan to capture those mysterious creatures without anyone noticing!”
"How do we catch it?" Akali asked.
She knew about White Zetsu; each individual could communicate with each other, and if one disappeared, the others would know instantly. Moreover, they were very elusive, making them extremely difficult to capture.
“Simple!” Tobirama Senju’s crimson eyes gleamed with wisdom: “A few days ago, Sasuke’s brother, Itachi, made contact with us using coded language.”
"He is currently within a mysterious organization, but due to the changes in Konoha, he is about to return to Konoha to conduct a test!"
"In my and my brother's experiments, we discovered that those creatures are intelligent; they actively gravitate towards large-scale events!"
"At that time, you will do this and that, and so on..."
Inside the top-secret room, Tobirama Senju's intricately designed layout slowly unfolds.
