First on the Top 100, and the Prize Pool Is Still Growing! Secret Realm Floor Forty-One, Slaying Oda's Forces!

Should he enter the Warring States Secret Realm here, under the eyes of so many people?

Recalling the buff that had specifically labeled the word "powerful," Uesugi Tetsu knew that the fortieth floor obviously could not stop him.

Even under the same "Rage" state, Uesugi Tetsu felt that he could now deal with the projection within two minutes.

Of course, getting injured was unavoidable.

There was no need. No need at all.

Uesugi Tetsu rejected the idea of stealing the spotlight.

Sneak into the village quietly, and don't fire a shot!
