"Captain, there are Uzushio Village ninja over there," a Mist Ninja at the bow suddenly said.
Although they were curious about the enormous noise that had come from the forest earlier, the Mist Ninja still trusted their Mizukage. How could trash like the Land of Whirlpools possibly stand up to Kirigakure?
No people, no Kage, no tailed beasts—what could they possibly use to fight? Courage? Did they think that as long as they radiated enough stupidity and charged straight in, they would win? Give them a break. They weren't a Child of Destiny. Sure, the Child of Destiny was also an Uzumaki, but he was blond!
They were obviously a different breed, okay?!
Uzushio Village??
All the Mist Ninja turned their heads in confusion upon hearing this. Though they found the strange things floating in the sky odd, they did not believe something drifting so slowly could harm them. And even if it could, at such a height, they had no way to shoot it down. Perhaps only a Tailed Beast Ball could strike something that high in the air—or Shuriken. But at that altitude, Shuriken probably would not do much damage.
Did they think the ninja world had no gravity? Only a very small number of people could fly.
They truly had no way to deal with it right now!
"Uzumaki ninja?!" The Kirigakure ninja stared at the two Uzumaki ninja walking toward them. Huh? One of them was rather old! But Uzumaki ninja appearing here now... could something have happened to the Mizukage and the others? Impossible. How could a mere Uzushio Village, without even a Kage or tailed beast, possibly threaten the Mizukage?
These two were probably here to ambush them, but...
Two people were a little too few!
Had they been set up by people from their own village? Were they here to hand over free kills?
This was practically delivering achievements right to them! Or perhaps...
Did they look down on the logistics security unit? Just these two... Huh, they were both Jonin-level! Though they were a little old. How much of their real strength could they still bring out? They really were here to give away kills!
But the Mist Ninja did not care. The captain simply waved his hand and said, "Capture the two of them and see whether we can get any intelligence out of them." Just two Jonin could not pose any threat to them, especially when one was a middle-aged man and the other an old man. With that lineup, they dared charge in head-on? Were they trying to promote respecting the elderly and caring for the young throughout the ninja world?
"Great Elder, should we make our move now?" Seeing the Mist Ninja take action, the Clan Head quietly asked the Great Elder beside him. Their wrong decisions had brought the Land of Whirlpools to its current state. If the Land of Whirlpools made it through this crisis, he would go ask Konoha's Hokage whether Lord Hashirama's old policy—that the Uzumaki Clan and Konoha would watch over each other—was still being honored. If not, they could deal with the Nine-Tails themselves. The Uzumaki Clan had no obligation to keep providing housing for the Nine-Tails. They did not even pay rent, yet their demands were so high. Not only did they want a security door, they also wanted the lives of the Uzumaki Clan? What a joke. The Uzumaki Clan might be stubborn, but they were not stupid!
And if they said they would honor it...
Fucking hell, who would believe that?!
The moment they saw the Uzumaki Clan winning, they would want friendly mutual assistance. Where could such a good deal possibly exist?!
Fuck off!!!
"Make our move!" the Great Elder said sternly. "Remember what Xun said. Mainly use Explosive Tags to draw Kirigakure's attention." As long as they could destroy the fleet, they would succeed. After that, it would be guerrilla warfare. He was becoming more and more convinced by Prince Xun's words.
Perhaps the Land of Whirlpools truly had hope. He just did not know...
Was Kirigakure the only ninja village involved?
"Conserve your strength. Mainly use Explosive Tags."
"Yes!!"
"Ding. Prestige has reached one hundred. The system is officially activated."
"Huh?" Xun Uzumaki suddenly froze. Was he hearing things? A system? Had that useless cheat finally activated? That could not be possible, right? That damn thing had not made a sound for seven years, yet it was reacting now. Was it because of the war?
What kind of war system was this bastard?
Did it activate whenever there was a war?
Fuck, was this trying to force him down the path of blowing up ninja villages and unifying the ninja world?
He clearly just wanted to coast through life.
"Although I am sorry to interrupt the host's fantasy, this system is not a war system, nor will it force the host to blow up the ninja world."
"Fuck, you can talk?" Hearing the electronic synthesized voice in his mind, Xun Uzumaki was instantly stunned.
"Of course. This system possesses considerable intelligence."
"How considerable?"
"...Higher than yours!"
"..."
Could he cancel this and get another artificial intelligence? This service attitude was awful.
"No!"
"..." Xun Uzumaki helplessly asked, "What are you even for?"
"This system is the Multiversal Harmonious Society Assistance System."
"Multiversal?" Xun Uzumaki was shocked. "A system that can travel through multiple worlds?" That awesome? After blowing up the ninja world, would his next step be unifying One Piece and becoming the strongest Soul Reaper?
"Host, you are overthinking it."
"..."
Fuck, then what was the point of this multiversal part?
"Please examine the name carefully, especially the last eight words."
"Harmonious Society Assistance System?"
What kind of thing was that?!
"It constructs a harmonious society, leads society toward prosperity and strength, and guides the people toward a moderately prosperous life."
"That's it?"
"Of course not."
"What else?"
"Multiversal."
"This system can exchange for anything from all worlds."
"Really? Even Devil Fruits and Zanpakuto?" Xun Uzumaki was shocked. This useless system actually had some use after all.
"Of course! Please do not question this system."
"Then can I exchange something now? Give me a Rumble-Rumble Fruit." Xun Uzumaki became excited. With that fruit, he could make those Mist Ninja call him daddy in minutes!
"...The host does not have enough prestige," the system said.
"Not enough prestige? Then how much do I have now?" Xun Uzumaki asked doubtfully.
"Host, please view the interface."
Host: Xun Uzumaki Age: Seven Level: Chunin Gender: Male Skills: Rasengan, Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu, Three Body Technique, Mutual Multiplication Explosive Tags... Prestige: 30,000
"..."
Thirty thousand prestige was still not enough? How much did it need?
Xun Uzumaki eyed the system suspiciously. Was it trying to accept bribes?
"Please do not slander this system casually. The Rumble-Rumble Fruit requires one million prestige, while the host only has thirty thousand, so it is insufficient."
I see. This Devil Fruit was far too expensive!
"So as long as I gather enough prestige, I can exchange for it?"
"Uh—" The system paused.
"What is it? Don't tell me there are more requirements?" Xun Uzumaki frowned.
"This system can only exchange for items from worlds the host has visited."
This... could it be...
"That's right. The host can currently only exchange for items from the original world and the ninja world. Items from other worlds cannot be exchanged!"
"..."
What use are you?
