Each with Their Own Thoughts

Under the warm white orb of the Main God Square, Orochimaru stood silently with 9,000 points to his name. His expression flickered between surprise and disappointment, all because he had spotted his lifelong dream in the Main God's exchange list: immortality!

He had never felt immortality to be so close, as if it were within his very grasp.

Tang Monk meat, mythical items, the reincarnated flesh of the Golden Cicada—consume it and live as long as heaven and earth...

Nine-thousand-year flat peaches, elixirs of life, mythical bloodlines, mechanical ascension, kin of the Old Gods...

The sheer variety of miraculous treasures left Orochimaru's calm exterior struggling to mask his surging emotions; he unconsciously parted his lips to steady his racing heart. Though the multitude of ways to achieve immortality deeply shocked him, the astronomical point costs quickly brought him back to his senses. Skipping over those exorbitant options, Orochimaru hesitated among the few he could actually afford, such as the Vampire Viscount Bloodline, the Basic Undead Bloodline, and the "Pure Gold" from the One Piece World, ultimately deciding to hold off on any purchases for now.

After all, while those rewards were currently affordable, they all carried certain drawbacks; it was better to convert his points into raw strength. As for immortality, in his current view, it would likely be achieved as a byproduct of his pursuit of power.

In the end, Orochimaru chose to exchange for a dojutsu: [Eye of Keikogi (Inferior)].

Rating: C-rank Perfect.

Price: 3 C-rank side-story quests, 5,000 points.

Description: Copy and fully master any ability up to Tier 2 Advanced. Maximum simultaneous mastery: 5.

Note: Cannot copy abilities requiring special constitutions or specific prerequisites.

The Eye of Keikogi, also known as the "Martial Observer" skill, was a monstrous dojutsu. Whether it was written text, weapon mastery, exotic martial arts, or even physical traits like the genetic abilities of other races—if it existed in the world and he saw it with his own eyes, he could fully comprehend and skillfully utilize it. It was like a strengthened version of the Sharingan.

Current scope includes: Ninjutsu, Taijutsu, Genjutsu, physical traits, languages, scripts, magic, etc. Usage consumes transcendent energy; if none is available, it consumes life force. Its weakness is that it provides no inherent physical enhancements, and the ability to copy is limited by the user's own strength—it cannot replicate powers that exceed the user by more than one or two tiers.

Inferior? Compared to the B-rank "Pseudo" or A-rank "Complete" versions, the Eye of Keikogi was significantly weakened. After all, it could only master five C-rank Perfect abilities at once, effectively acting as five extra skill slots. Furthermore, it could not replicate anything restricted by constitution, bloodline, or race.

Yet, even so, it remained a formidable ability—after all, it was a power rumored to contain the myriad manifestations of the universe!

Once Orochimaru finished his exchange, the others followed suit, choosing their own abilities. However, bound by an eerie unspoken agreement, no one broke the silence to discuss them.

The Raikage was the first to speak. "As for where this mysterious space came from or what its purpose is, I suspect we cannot fathom it. We need only understand one thing: the power it possesses is certainly not something anyone in the Ninja World can contend with." Feeling the electric current surging through every cell in his body, Ay couldn't help but feel a new layer of awe toward the Main God.

"Does that even need to be said?" Kisame remarked. "Whether it's the casual erasure of life, traversing other worlds, or these even more miraculous exchange items, all of it indicates that the Main God is an existence of absolute power. But why would such an entity choose people like us to carry out these so-called missions?" His years of experience in the Anbu told him that there was no such thing as kindness without a motive in this world!

Orochimaru tilted his head slightly to look at the group. "Perhaps it is a so-called game of the gods, or perhaps we mortals possess value unknown even to ourselves. Rather than guessing at these meaningless answers, I am more interested in everyone's exchanges! After all, the information provided by the Main God is clear: as Reincarnators, missions are updated irregularly, and we have no right to refuse. Before death arrives, we should make ourselves as strong as possible."

However, everyone present frowned at the topic, each harboring their own thoughts regarding their personal exchanges and unwilling to reveal more. To put it bluntly, the Main God hadn't detailed the next mission; the people present might be teammates next time, or they might be enemies! No one would easily leak their own intelligence before their stance was determined.

"How truly boring! Is this the extent of a ninja's perspective? Heh..." Orochimaru licked his lips and sneered. "Main God, I choose to customize my room!"

As soon as Orochimaru finished speaking, the white orb above the Main God Space emitted a projection of light, and six doors appeared out of thin air around the square.

"Five people, why are there six doors?"

They immediately noticed that this single, separate door was tightly shut and emitted a faint glow, seemingly indicating it was already occupied. On it was clearly written a serial number!

The five newly appeared doors were numbered 2 through 6, corresponding to Orochimaru and the other four.

"Could there have been others who became Reincarnators before us? Who are they?" Kitsuchi couldn't help but exclaim.

"What makes you think we are the most special ones?" Kisame retorted mercilessly.

Pakura, who had been silent until now, nodded in agreement. "We can confirm at least one person existed before us. As for whether this number represents the total count, that is uncertain—after all, there is only one room here."

"Perhaps there is more than one Main God Space," Orochimaru mused, thinking deeper.

The group was deeply shaken. The Raikage couldn't help but say, "That is indeed possible. Since the Main God can connect to other worlds, there might be more than one such space. And this person from before might not even be from our world."

Zhu Shen, who was observing them from the shadows, was stunned. He naturally knew that Room 1 was Minato's, but that was just a random assignment! After all, if he started from Room 1, wouldn't it make his Main God persona look like he only had a handful of followers? How could he lead a team like that?

Regarding their over-analysis, Zhu Shen only wanted to say: Yes, you are all correct! Just go with what you said. He didn't actually intend to create only one Main God Space. But for now, this was all he could manage; until he mastered the world essence of each realm, he couldn't just set up Main God Spaces in other worlds at will.

By now, everyone in the Main God Space had arrived in their respective rooms.

Orochimaru looked around his room, which was about 200 square meters, empty, and featured a white background without any furniture or decorations. With a thought, 50 points were deducted, and the room instantly transformed into a small research lab. Unfortunately, it only contained basic operating tables, chairs, and desks; there were no research instruments or tools.

For inanimate objects that did not contain transcendent power, the Main God's points could certainly be used for exchanges, but only if the raw materials were cheap. Complex, high-precision research equipment was not inexpensive unless one exchanged for raw materials like steel and glass to build them by hand.

Of course, Zhu Shen thoughtfully provided a service to transport any inanimate object into the private room at a lower cost than a direct exchange. Furthermore, private rooms could be expanded; the original 200-square-meter space could be upgraded to 2,000 or even 20,000 square meters.

Naturally, that also cost points!

Zhu Shen felt he was truly considerate of the Reincarnators. Since that was the case, he decided to add another benefit. Speaking of the Main God Space, how could it be without a "creation" benefit?

"System, enable the creation service and grant secondary permissions to the Reincarnators!"

Inside their rooms, everyone received a notification: [Notice: Reincarnators have passed the novice period. Custom life-form creation service added. Personality and memories are customized by the Reincarnator. Strength limit: Tier 1 Advanced. First creation is free.]

"Creating life? Can even such a thing be done? This Main God Space is even more powerful and mysterious than I imagined!" Orochimaru calculated inwardly, his curiosity toward the Main God reaching its peak.

Since that was the case, he would give it a try! Following the Main God's instructions, Orochimaru left his room and arrived "beneath the large orb" in the Main God Square, where he ran into the others, who all wore different expressions.

Kitsuchi, who had the lowest presence, couldn't help but ask first, "Is it really possible to create life?"

One had to know that in the legends of the Ninja World, the Sage of Six Paths, revered as a god, was only called a "Sage" due to his achievements in pacifying the chaotic world and founding the Ninja Sect. Creating life was not a feat attributed to the Sage, and one could assume it was beyond his reach. Thus, hearing that the Main God Space could create life, everyone simultaneously prepared to test its authenticity.

The Raikage raised an eyebrow and said, "Why not just try it and see?" With that, he stepped forward, closed his eyes, and contacted the orb above.

The others watched the Raikage nervously, while Orochimaru quietly activated the Eye of Keikogi. Zhu Shen noticed Orochimaru's activation and shook his head to himself.

Although the Main God's creation service only cost him 1,000 points to permanently unlock in the system, according to the system, this ability was above the rules. An existence capable of mastering the rules was at least a Tier 4 A-rank exchange! A C-rank Perfect skill could never analyze it.

A moment later, as the Raikage finished setting the appearance, memories, abilities, and form in his mind, a beam of light descended, and a dark-skinned man appeared before them.

When everyone saw the person the Raikage had created, they were all struck with shock. "Raikage?!!!"

The android was clad in a form-fitting white cloak, his skin dark, with a wide belt cinched at his waist. As he opened his eyes, a sharp, piercing gaze shot forth. This was none other than an android Raikage, created by Raikage A using himself as the template!

"You should know everything by now," Raikage A said to the android Raikage, his arms crossed over his chest.

The android Raikage tilted his head. "Of course, A. You are me, and I am you. Are you not already clear on my memories?"

"Hahahaha, that is truly excellent. From now on, you shall be called Abby!" the Raikage laughed heartily. "Now, let me see what you are made of, Abby!"
