Zhou Cheng knew what reward each person drew from the Blind Box.
When he learned what was written on the slip, Zhou Cheng was startled too.
Whoa, Future Sight?
These were all scenes from the future!
After seeing them, would he still wipe out the clan?
Just then, the system's voice sounded in his mind.
[Itachi Uchiha opened a Green Blind Box and received a special reward. The host received a critical bonus: Blue Blind Box x1.]
"Itachi, you've used up your chances for today. Head down; there are plenty of people waiting in line!"
Itachi remained rooted to the spot, his eyes vacant!
"Brother, brother, what's wrong?"
Sasuke stood below the Arena and called out to Itachi several times.
Only then did Itachi come to his senses. He shook his head hard, then bowed solemnly to Zhou Cheng.
"Thank you, senior, for showing me the way!"
Itachi's gaze had changed completely. At first, he had been skeptical; then he'd grown curious. But after reading the slip, he knew Zhou Cheng was absolutely not as weak as he seemed.
All the signs he'd seen had convinced Itachi of Zhou Cheng's abilities. He was definitely no ordinary Genin.
Someone who could see the future might be an old monster who had lived for who knew how many years!
Maybe he was even stronger than a Kage!
Itachi remembered his two attacks just moments ago. He'd held back, afraid of killing Zhou Cheng.
Now, he regretted it so much he could have kicked himself!
If he'd attacked with all his strength, he would surely have gotten a better reward!
Tomorrow, he would attack with all his strength. Maybe he really could draw a way to resolve the conflict between his clan and the village.
Itachi jumped down from the Arena and went over to Sasuke and Shisui.
"Brother, what reward did you get?"
"Judging by how stunned you look, it must be something incredible!"
Sasuke's little face was alight with excitement. His eyes sparkled as he looked at Sasuke, full of anticipation.
Itachi's gaze grew even more affectionate!
So, because of what I did, Sasuke went through so much suffering!
Shisui died too, and I couldn't even fulfill his final wish. I'm such a failure as a brother and a friend!
He gently patted Sasuke on the head, then turned to Shisui.
"Why don't you give it a try?"
Shisui noticed the guilt in Itachi's eyes!
It must have something to do with the second reward!
"Let me see what you got first!"
Itachi shook his head. There were too many people around; now wasn't the time.
"No rush. Go try it first!"
"You'll regret it if you hold back!"
Shisui looked puzzled. His full strength?
Wasn't he worried Shisui might actually kill him?
Seeing Itachi's resolute expression, Shisui gave a wry smile and shook his head.
"Everyone, would you mind letting me cut in line?"
Otherwise, by the time it was his turn, Zhou Cheng would have packed up and left!
"What are you saying, Lord Shisui? We're just here for the fun of it!"
"After you!"
Facing Body Flicker Shisui, neither the ordinary people nor the Genin had any objections.
Shisui nodded, easily leaped onto the Arena, and stopped five meters from Zhou Cheng.
"Itachi told me I shouldn't hold back, but I'm afraid I'll kill you."
Zhou Cheng gave a disdainful smile. If you can break my shield in one hit, I'll be even happier!
"If you can kill me, I can give you a reward beyond your wildest imagination!"
"Maybe it'll even make you the strongest person in the Ninja World!"
"My Blind Boxes can contain all kinds of treasures!"
Zhou Cheng gave an enigmatic smile. "For example, a Genjutsu that can completely control other people!"
Shisui's pupils contracted. A Genjutsu that could completely control other people?
He instinctively touched his eyes. Kotoamatsukami?
"Does something like that really exist?"
Zhou Cheng looked inscrutable, folding his arms across his chest.
"That depends on whether you can kill me!"
"Not to look down on you, but you can't do it!"
Shisui's expression shifted. How could a man let someone tell him he couldn't do it?
"You're asking for it!"
Shisui leaped backward and began forming Hand Seals at lightning speed.
"Fire Style: Phoenix Flower Claw Crimson!"
He appeared in midair and hurled Kunai wrapped in scorching flames at Zhou Cheng.
More than a dozen Kunai flew toward Zhou Cheng. The moment they struck him, the flames exploded.
"Ah, someone's been killed!"
"Lord Shisui hit him a little too hard."
"Still, they're fellow clan members!"
Sasuke's face changed too, and his hand tightened around Itachi's without him realizing it.
Only Itachi had absolute faith in Zhou Cheng!
-5678.
A set of numbers appeared above Zhou Cheng's head.
Then the flames disappeared. Aside from leaving a patch of charred ground on the Arena, they had done no harm to Zhou Cheng at all. He still stood there with his arms folded.
[Damage dealt: 5678.] [Shield HP remaining: 9,999,999,991,797] [Damage rating: Blue.] [Reward obtained: Blue Blind Box.]
Zhou Cheng smiled faintly. You held back too?
"Although you didn't kill me, the damage you dealt is the highest so far!"
"You've earned an even better reward. Here!"
Zhou Cheng turned his hand over, and a Blue Blind Box appeared in it.
Shisui caught it steadily. Blue? Was it better than green?
He glanced at Zhou Cheng, who was still smiling faintly.
Then he looked at Itachi and Sasuke, seeing the anticipation on their faces.
"Shisui, open it and see!"
Itachi chimed in as well.
"Based on what senior Zhou Cheng said, the Blue Blind Box ranks above the Green Blind Box, which ranks above the White Blind Box."
"Yours might contain an incredible reward!"
At that, the onlookers began to chatter among themselves.
Everyone was guessing what valuable reward Shisui might get!
Shisui opened the Blind Box. Inside lay a jade card.
He picked it up. It felt cool to the touch, and his mind seemed to clear.
[Basic Ninjutsu Experience Card.] [Upon use, gain a small amount of experience in one selected Ninjutsu. Permanently increase its power by 10% and reduce its Chakra cost by 10%.] [Can only be used on Ninjutsu already learned. Number of Ninjutsu that can benefit at the same time: 1.] [The host received a critical bonus: Advanced Ninjutsu Experience Card x1.] [Increase one selected Ninjutsu's power by 30% and reduce its Chakra cost by 30%.]
Zhou Cheng explained, ready to amaze them all.
"You're very lucky. This is a Basic Ninjutsu Experience Card. You can choose one Ninjutsu you've already learned and increase its power by 10%, while reducing its Chakra cost by 10%."
The whole crowd erupted!
It increased a Ninjutsu's power while reducing its Chakra cost!
It was practically a divine treasure!
For a ninja, Chakra was everything.
When two equally strong ninjas fought, being able to use less Chakra to unleash a more powerful Ninjutsu was undoubtedly deadly for the opponent.
Quite a few people looked greedily at the jade card in Shisui's hand. If Shisui's strength hadn't been so obvious, they would have rushed to snatch it!
"Can it really do that?"
Shisui still couldn't believe it. It was too fantastical!
Only a god could have such power!
Was Zhou Cheng really a Genin?
"Try it and find out!"
"When you use it, focus on the Ninjutsu you want to strengthen. It only works on Ninjutsu you've already learned!"
Zhou Cheng continued to smile faintly.
"Shisui, Crush Grip it!"
Little Sasuke couldn't wait to see which Ninjutsu Shisui would choose.
Anticipation appeared in Itachi's eyes too. Senior Zhou Cheng truly was extraordinary.
Every reward was so incredible.
Could someone like him really be one of our clan?
He'd lived in the clan for more than ten years, yet he'd managed to hide his strength the whole time.
On the Arena, Shisui pressed his fingers together. The jade card shattered instantly.
He focused his thoughts on Susanoo!
If he was going to strengthen something, he might as well strengthen his most powerful Ninjutsu!
A vast surge of power suddenly appeared within him.
Shisui could clearly feel his Susanoo getting a little stronger!
"It's real!"
Shisui's face changed, and he cried out in shock!
