Might Duy did not laugh heartlessly as he usually did, his expression uncharacteristically solemn.
He nodded gently toward Aragaki Yasushi, his tone carrying a hint of worry: "That's right, we came to see Kakashi."
"That child lost his father just a few years ago; his heart was already heavy."
"Now that a comrade who fought alongside him has passed away during a mission, I'm worried he might get stuck in a dark place and something might happen."
Although Might Duy looked silly on most days, constantly shouting about youth, he was not truly lacking in intelligence.
He genuinely cared for his comrades in the village.
Aragaki Yasushi quickly spoke up: "Then I won't disturb you any further; I'll head back now."
Upon hearing this, Might Duy scratched his head, his face regaining some of its usual smile as he patted Aragaki Yasushi on the shoulder:
"You are the same age as Kakashi and can talk to him easily. When you have time, try to persuade him more; don't let him get trapped in a dead end. It would be terrible if something really happened."
Aragaki Yasushi nodded and agreed: "I understand, Teacher Duy. I will go talk to him when I have the chance."
After parting ways with Might Duy and the others, Aragaki Yasushi turned and returned to his own tent. He closed the door and couldn't wait to take out the Poke Ball, turning it over and over in his hands.
A bold idea emerged.
I wonder if this Poke Ball can be used to capture a Tailed Beast?
He rubbed his chin and pondered.
If his guess was correct, it wouldn't be long before that old fox Uchiha Madara would likely do as he did in the original story: manipulate the Mist Anbu to kidnap Rin and seal the Three-Tails Isobu inside her.
If the Poke Ball could capture a Tailed Beast, couldn't he take the opportunity to intervene and seize the Three-Tails for himself?
Although doing so would attract the attention of elderly Madara and carry certain risks, when he thought about it carefully, it didn't seem that terrifying.
That old fox was already half-buried in the grave; he probably didn't have much strength left to stir up trouble.
As long as he was careful and kept his movements hidden, it should be enough to get by.
After all, that was a Tailed Beast!
Capturing it would be a massive profit; it was worth taking a few risks!
The potential gains were just too rich.
However, upon second thought, Aragaki Yasushi felt a bit troubled.
With a regular Poke Ball, the difficulty of capturing an existence at the level of the Three-Tails felt quite high. He wouldn't be able to catch it without giving the Three-Tails a sound beating first.
But asking his current self to fight the Three-Tails was like asking a tiger to do the impossible.
Aragaki Yasushi couldn't help but make a wish in his heart.
He hoped to draw a Master Ball that guaranteed a successful capture.
If he could draw one, then capturing the Three-Tails would be as easy as child's play!
Thinking of this, Aragaki Yasushi quickly tapped open the system panel and looked at his points, his expression instantly collapsing.
[Points: 400]
He was still 500 points short of a ten-pull. It looked like he would have to go crazy completing missions and earn points as hard as he could during this period!
Moreover, Aragaki Yasushi remembered that in twenty-some days, the limited-time Pokemon banner would disappear.
Although it would be moved to the permanent banner after the limited one vanished, the Jackie Chan Adventures banner would disappear entirely!
That wouldn't do; Aragaki Yasushi would rather die than miss out on the Jackie Chan Adventures banner.
After all, he had only drawn two talismans, and the Dog Talisman he wanted most hadn't been obtained yet.
Compared to the Pokemon banner, Aragaki Yasushi still wasn't willing to give up on the Jackie Chan Adventures banner.
Besides talismans and Masks, the Jackie Chan Adventures banner also contained an overpowered item like the Book of Ages!
The moment he thought of the Book of Ages, Aragaki Yasushi's eyes lit up.
That was a divine artifact capable of rewriting everything; if he drew it, he would essentially become the author himself!
Once he reached that narrative level, Uchiha Madara, Tailed Beasts—wouldn't they all be whatever he wanted them to be?
Although there might be side effects.
Those who toy with history will inevitably be toyed with by history.
But such an overpowered item was still a must-have.
Two days later, Aragaki Yasushi returned to the Konoha Camp, dusty and travel-worn.
He didn't even catch his breath before heading straight to the mission desk. After efficiently turning in his mission, he couldn't wait to open the system panel.
[Points: 900]
Finally, he had enough!
Aragaki Yasushi felt a surge of excitement in his heart.
Over the past two days, he had practically become a workaholic, running two missions back-to-back.
One was a patrol mission, which awarded 200 points.
The other was a reconnaissance mission, which awarded 300 points.
Adding them together, he had finally saved up enough points for a ten-pull on the limited banner; he would no longer have to drool while staring at the pool!
Aragaki Yasushi hurried back to his living quarters, his eyes gleaming as he rubbed his hands together in anticipation:
Let's try my luck again. This time, I'm bound to get something good!
Draw! Ten-pull!
He chanted fiercely in his heart, and the system panel instantly popped up with a dazzling card-drawing animation.
Streaks of light flashed by rapidly as ten items appeared one after another.
[Great Ball]
[Ultra Ball]
[Small Bamboo Shoot]
[Large Bamboo Shoot]
[Rage Bun]
[Baguette]
[Mustard]
[Charge]
[Million Ton Punch]
[Macaroni]
Aragaki Yasushi's eyes widened, and he immediately perked up.
He got Poke Balls! And two of them at that!
Afraid he might be seeing things, he quickly clicked on the descriptions of the Poke Balls and leaned in to examine them closely.
[Great Ball: A Poke Ball with a decent performance that makes it easier to catch Pokemon than a regular Poke Ball.]
[Ultra Ball: A Poke Ball with excellent performance that makes it easier to catch Pokemon than a Great Ball.]
Aragaki Yasushi stroked his chin, his expression a mix of joy and disappointment.
Not bad, not bad. Both are higher grade than a standard Poke Ball.
It's a pity, though, that I didn't pull a Master Ball with its hundred-percent catch rate!
Otherwise, wouldn't capturing the Three-Tails be a sure thing?
Although the catch rates for Great Balls and Ultra Balls were quite high, he felt uneasy as long as there was any chance of failure.
However, when he looked at the other rewards, Aragaki Yasushi cheered up again.
Aside from the Poke Balls, the haul this time wasn't bad at all—he had actually pulled two moves!
He hurriedly clicked on the move descriptions.
[Charge: Puts the user into a charged state, doubling the power of Electric-type moves. The charged state ends after an Electric-type move is used.]
[Million Ton Punch: Attacks the opponent with a fist full of power, dealing massive damage.]
Aragaki Yasushi immediately mobilized the power within his body, trying to sense these two newly drawn moves, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl upward.
Charge could enhance his Thunderbolt and Lightning Style ninjutsu.
If he activated Charge while the enemy used Lightning Style, or if he encountered a thunderstorm, the power of his moves would be further amplified.
Isn't this the perfect anti-Cloud Ninja weapon?
From now on, whenever he encountered Cloud Ninja, he could just activate Charge and rush in.
Any damage the enemy dealt to him could be returned in full with a single skill.
It felt incredibly satisfying.
As for Million Ton Punch, it didn't have any flashy gimmicks; it was all about being simple and direct.
Pure numerical suppression.
Moreover, given that Aragaki Yasushi's physical body had been enhanced by the Ox Talisman, the power of this move would be absolutely terrifying.
Truth be told, this Million Ton Punch was likely his strongest offensive method at the moment.
