Chapter 61: The Perfect Second-in-Command, Don't Underestimate Me!
"Izayoi-kun, she's so pitiful."
Watching Karin leave with the shadow clone, Hinata said with pity.
She had thought that when she was little, she was already timid and humble enough in front of Izayoi.
But compared to Karin, she was still a bit lacking.
The look in that girl's eyes was heartbreaking.
"There are pitiful people like this everywhere. There are also many people who are even more pitiful than her." Izayoi touched Hinata's head and smiled, "We can't help everyone. All we can do is protect the important people around us."
"Yeah."
Hinata nodded vigorously.
She wasn't some kind of saint, but only felt emotional because Karin was Izayoi's clan member.
Looking at Shino Aburame returning, Izayoi asked, "What kind of scrolls did they have?"
"They had a Heaven scroll." Shino Aburame replied.
"That's just right, we have an Earth scroll."
Izayoi took out the team's scroll and threw it to Shino Aburame, saying, "These two scrolls will be kept by you, Shino."
Hearing this, Shino Aburame seemed to understand something and said, "Our scrolls are already complete, aren't we going directly to the central tower?"
Izayoi turned his head and looked in a certain direction, "No hurry, there's still one trouble that hasn't been resolved."
Hinata's expression changed slightly. Remembering what Izayoi had said in the bathroom, and combining it with the information she had gathered with her Byakugan, she couldn't help but ask, "Izayoi-kun, are you going to deal with that Sand ninja carrying a gourd?"
"No, it's someone stronger than him."
Izayoi shook his head and instructed Hinata and Shino Aburame, "You guys go to the outside of the central tower and wait for me first. After I solve that trouble, I'll go and meet up with you."
"Yes."
Hinata, knowing how powerful Izayoi was, nodded obediently.
Seeing that Hinata didn't insist on going with him, Shino Aburame naturally nodded as well, "I understand."
After separating from Hinata and Shino Aburame, Izayoi instantly flew towards the direction of Team 7.
That's right, the second person whose fate Izayoi prepared to change was Sasuke Uchiha.
With Izayoi's current configuration, only by defeating Kage-level powerhouses would the drop rate of entries increase.
Neither Zabuza Momochi nor Raiga Kurosuki, nor Haku and Ranmaru, had dropped any entries.
Because Izayoi's strength was far, far greater than theirs.
Defeating them would only have a very small chance of dropping low-level and high-level entries.
Izayoi had tried killing enemies and also created shadow clones with very little chakra, killing people together with the shadow clones, but still no entries were dropped.
This meant that shadow clones and killing people could not increase the drop rate.
And the number of Kage-level powerhouses in this era was very limited.
In this case, there were only two ways for Izayoi to drop entries and decompose them into points.
One was to see if the talent entry system had any other hidden mechanisms to increase the drop rate.
The second was to drop super high-level entries to decompose them into points.
The highest level of entries for Kage-level powerhouses was only purple, and decomposing them would only yield four-digit points.
And above purple, there were still gold and red entries, and even unknown levels.
Decomposing gold and red entries would yield random five-digit and six-digit points.
If he was lucky, decomposing a red entry might randomly give him more than 990,000 points, directly upgrading the red entry to an unknown new level at a 1:1 ratio.
Before finding a new mechanism, Hinata, Sasuke Uchiha, and Naruto Uzumaki were Izayoi's targets.
Among these three, Izayoi valued Sasuke Uchiha the most.
Because his talent was the best and his progress was the fastest.
As long as his strength was raised, Izayoi's drop rate would be higher.
Therefore, Izayoi had to change Sasuke Uchiha's fate, keep him in Konoha, so that he could brush entries at any time.
Moreover, Sasuke Uchiha's loyalty was no less than Karin's.
After being defeated by Naruto Uzumaki in the original work, Sasuke Uchiha gave up all fame, fortune, and money, and wholeheartedly acted as Naruto Uzumaki's workhorse outside, not returning home for several years, and almost killed his own daughter.
Placed in the One Piece world, he would be the perfect second-in-command like Roronoa Zoro.
Izayoi would naturally not give such a talent to Orochimaru either.
A white light flashed in his eyes, and Izayoi's speed increased by several points.
...
At this time, Team 7 was confronting a Kusa ninja.
"You guys got a Heaven scroll, you must really want the Earth scroll in my hand..."
Orochimaru, disguised as a Kusa ninja using the Transformation Technique, shook the Earth scroll in his hand, and then, under the wide-eyed gaze of Team 7, tilted his head back and stuffed the scroll into his mouth.
"Swal... swallowed it, he actually ate the scroll!" Naruto Uzumaki said dumbfounded.
"What is this guy's body structure? A secret technique, or a bloodline limit?" Sasuke Uchiha analyzed calmly.
As for Sakura Haruno, she was already trembling with fear and hid behind Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki.
"Then, let's begin... the scroll snatching battle."
Orochimaru, who had swallowed the Earth scroll, smiled playfully at Team 7, "I will give it my all!"
Boom—
An invisible airwave roared out from Orochimaru's body.
Team 7 was first stunned for a moment, and then they all slumped to the ground, their faces pale and their breathing rapid.
"Ugh..."
Sasuke Uchiha, the strongest member of the team, even vomited on the spot.
"Is it genjutsu? No... that's killing intent!"
Sasuke Uchiha looked at Orochimaru, his eyes filled with fear just like when he faced Itachi Uchiha back then, "Just killing intent made us see our own deaths, who exactly is this guy? Why is there such an existence in the Chunin Exam?!"
Although both were boiling with killing intent, the Sand ninja carrying a gourd was completely on a different level from this Kusa ninja.
No, it should be said... they were not on the same dimension!
"Da... damn it, don't think you can scare me like this..."
At this moment, Naruto Uzumaki's voice entered his ears.
Sasuke Uchiha subconsciously turned his head to look.
When he saw that Naruto Uzumaki not only didn't vomit, but also stood up gritting his teeth, his hands forming a hand seal.
For some reason, the fear of Orochimaru in Sasuke Uchiha's heart instantly disappeared.
Even this dobe isn't afraid, what is he afraid of?
Thinking of this, Sasuke Uchiha's eyes suddenly became firm, and his black pupils turned into scarlet two-tomoe Sharingan.
"Don't underestimate me, I'm the man who will become Hokage..."
At this time, Naruto Uzumaki also shouted loudly at Orochimaru, "Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu!"
Boom boom boom...
A series of sounds like popping balloons resounded in the forest.
At the same time, each sound brought up a cloud of white smoke.
These smokes formed a white fog with a very large area.
When a gust of wind dispersed the fog, three hundred Naruto Uzumakis appeared in the forest.
"Sasuke, Sakura, you both hide behind."
The shadow clones lifted Sasuke Uchiha and Sakura Haruno up, and then passed them hand-to-hand to the back.
The main body and the remaining shadow clones formed hand seals with both hands and shouted arrogantly, "Watch me blow you away in one breath!"
Seeing Naruto Uzumaki create so many shadow clones in one breath, and this hand seal, Orochimaru, who was originally playing with them like a cat playing with a mouse, suddenly changed his expression slightly and said, "Such chakra, could this kid be..."
"Wind Style: Great Breakthrough!"
Three hundred shouts sounded in unison.
