[Once Roleplay Progress for the strongest character in the current character pool reaches 100%, the character pool will automatically expand]
The system's answer sent Wu Chen into deep thought.
So I have to draw the Sage of Six Paths or Otsutsuki Kaguya at full power before I can draw characters from outside Hokage?
Without a doubt, those two stood at the very top of the Hokage World's power rankings.
Even Six Paths Madara and Sasuke and Naruto, who had received power from the Sage of Six Paths, were slightly weaker than those two.
The entire story of the Hokage World had even grown out of the Ōtsutsuki family's affairs.
Wu Chen understood that perfectly well.
But what good did understanding all that do?
Could it help him draw the Sage of Six Paths or Otsutsuki Kaguya?
Wu Chen immediately grew troubled.
But the worry didn't stay on Wu Chen's mind for long.
He was only role-playing his first character. Raising his Roleplay Progress for the strongest character in the Hokage World to one hundred percent was still a distant prospect.
Even if Wu Chen worried himself to death over it, it wouldn't do him any good.
Besides, the most important thing right now was to raise Minato Namikaze's Roleplay Progress to fifty percent, earn a chance to draw a character, and unlock a new one!
Having figured that out, Wu Chen stopped letting his thoughts wander, cleared his mind, and went straight to sleep.
The next morning, Wu Chen woke up.
Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar surroundings, Wu Chen finally realized that everything that had happened last night was real.
He really had transmigrated to the Marvel Universe, role-played the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, killed Abomination, and beaten up Hulk.
In other words, the plot of The Incredible Hulk had already played out.
Next came the plots of Iron Man 2 and Thor.
Wu Chen began considering how he could use those major events to improve his Roleplay Progress.
He considered many possibilities, but in every case, Minato Namikaze alone wasn't enough.
So the goal he had set last night was right: he needed to raise Minato Namikaze's Roleplay Progress as quickly as possible and obtain a new character!
Then, starting today, he would find people and take on missions!
First, Wu Chen took stock of his finances.
There was no helping it. Even Minato Namikaze had to eat, let alone Wu Chen, who was still an ordinary person.
When he finished counting, Wu Chen found that there were about fifty or sixty thousand US dollars in the house.
If he spent it only on food, clothing, housing, and transportation, that much money would last a long time.
In that case, he didn't have to worry about money for the time being, so he could get moving right away!
The restaurant was empty, with no waiters or cooks. His predecessor had handled all those roles alone.
With no family or friends, he had been like a ghost living in New York.
But that suited Wu Chen, sparing him the time and energy he would otherwise have had to spend dealing with his predecessor's acquaintances.
After eating the breakfast he had made himself, Wu Chen went out to a secluded corner and resumed role-playing Minato Namikaze.
Whoosh~
The handsome, gentle Fourth Hokage appeared and then activated the Flying Thunder God Technique.
The next second, he appeared beside Bruce Banner.
His reason for doing so was simple: he needed to give Bruce Banner his contact information.
The Flying Thunder God Mark was there, but the two had no way to communicate. They needed a way to contact each other.
Wu Chen had overlooked that last night, so he could only make up for it today.
As soon as he appeared beside Bruce Banner, Wu Chen frowned.
He had appeared on the same rooftop he had left yesterday, and Dr. Banner was lying on the ground, covered by a few thin sheets of paper.
"Is it really this miserable?"
Wu Chen smacked his lips, then unceremoniously woke the "sleeping" Banner.
In fact, Banner had already woken up when Wu Chen arrived, thanks to the alertness he had developed over years on the run.
He had continued pretending to sleep because he wanted to see what Wu Chen was going to do.
Having been woken up, Banner naturally couldn't keep pretending. He rubbed his bleary eyes, and the first thing he did upon seeing Wu Chen was complain, "Hey, buddy, you should've taken me somewhere else last night. The door to this rooftop is locked from the inside."
Wu Chen was a little embarrassed. "Couldn't you have broken the door down? Why stay here all night?"
"No. That might have brought Hulk out." Dr. Banner got up and pushed his glasses up. "So, what brings you here today?"
Remembering his reason for coming, Wu Chen gave Banner his phone number and some money, then took him down from the roof.
They didn't take the stairs. Instead, Wu Chen gathered Chakra on the soles of his feet, stood perpendicular to the wall, and carried Banner down the building in a way that would have infuriated Newton.
"Oh my God!" Once his feet were back on the ground, Dr. Banner finally exclaimed, "What was that just now? How can you walk on a wall like that?"
Wu Chen glanced at him and said a single word: "Chakra." Then he vanished in front of Banner.
He had his own plans to carry out and no time to spend with Banner.
That left Banner a little disappointed, but he was no less interested in "Chakra."
"Chakra? What is that?!"
