Chapter 194 Lottery
Late spring in April.

When the weather is nice, Sasuke, Hyuga Neji, and the incomplete Kito Suigetsu will come to the ground and walk around.

The spring breeze blew, and many weeds grew on the barren land.

In the meantime, lovely wild flowers of various colors are dotted here and there.

They come in different shapes and sizes, but they are all wild and beautiful.

The spring breeze in Otoyin Ninja Village is not gentle.

But fortunately, as the weather gradually gets warmer, it is no longer as cold as before.

The cold spring breeze blew the clothes and hair of the young people, and youth was growing wildly in the wilderness.

"Lord Sasuke, Neji. Lord Orochimaru has something important to discuss. Please come over immediately."

In the sunken valley, a fat ninja jumped up, breaking the tranquility in the air.

"do not know."

"whats the matter?"

After noticing the other person's gaze, Sasuke nodded indifferently.

Otogakure Ninja Village, Orochimaru Base, in the meeting hall.

In fact, except for Uchiha Sasuke, everyone tied the knot behind their back in a very orderly manner.

Several people looked at each other in confusion, each wondering in their hearts what the reason for such an urgent summons was.

Keep the big bow and the end of the rope pointed upward.

Uchiha Sasuke turned around, his pure white samurai uniform rustling in the wind.

Seeing that Orochimaru didn't speak for a long time, Uchiha Sasuke was a little impatient and asked irritably.

The latter was not afraid and looked back coldly.

"Is it urgent?"

This fat man has narrow features and a broad face. He looks serious and useless.

The door was opened again, and Uchiha Sasuke and Hinata Neji walked in one after another.

Kidomaru, Jirobo, and Tayuya were already waiting there.

Hyuga Neji looked at Jirobo's back, lowered his voice, and whispered to Sasuke.

Jirobo shook his head and said in a low voice.

The eyes like poisonous snakes swept across the faces of the five people in the audience one by one.

"Do you know what it is, Jirobo?"

"Is it going to be that thing?"

Uchiha Sasuke didn't speak, but walked slowly to the side of the valley.

Hinata Neji nodded.

Upon hearing the question, Orochimaru stared at Sasuke with his gloomy eyes.

Instead, it is pinned directly to the belt and can be accessed at any time.

The air pressure in the room was frighteningly low, and the invisible power oppressed the hearts of everyone in the room.

Due to the high frequency of training, Sasuke's "Kusanagi Sword: Tsukikage" is no longer placed in the storage scroll at this time.

The words seemed to be frozen, and the hoarse voice said without any warmth:
"Kabuto Yakushi, maybe he's dead."

Around the waist, a thick purple rope was tied randomly, like a belt.

His head was shaved, with a handful of orange hair in three different directions.

But Jirobo refused to leave, still staring at Sasuke nervously.

Next to Sasuke, Hyuga Neji, who was also wearing a samurai uniform and black clothes, came over, stood side by side with Sasuke, and asked.

Jirobo breathed a sigh of relief and left in a hurry.

The fat man replied.

He jumped up and disappeared into the cave entrance.

But unlike Sasuke, Neji's knots were tied quite neatly.

Orochimaru's golden vertical pupils flashed slightly, and after a while, Orochimaru finally spoke.

In front of the hall, Orochimaru was sitting on a chair, his face terrifyingly gloomy.

His back was also tied with a thick purple rope.

"That's it, I know."

"It seems to be much more serious than before."

After a pause, Jirobo wiped the sweat from his forehead and said nervously:
"However, we all need to participate. And ask to put down everything we are doing immediately.

"It looks like, yes, it's very urgent."

"!"

"!!"

"!!!"

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of everyone present changed drastically.

Even Uchiha Sasuke also showed a surprised expression.

"Just kidding."

Tayuya was sweating on his forehead, stammering, and couldn't help but whisper to himself.

The news Orochimaru gave was like a heavy hammer, hitting everyone's heart hard.

At this time, countless questions flashed through the minds of everyone in the hall.

Who did it?
When did this happen?

What does "maybe dead" mean?
But everyone lowered their heads nervously, and no one dared to ask questions rashly.

Everyone could see that Orochimaru was in a very bad mood at this time.

Everyone was so frightened that they dared not speak out.

really.

On the side, Uchiha Sasuke also lowered his head, thoughts surging in his heart.

All of this started two months ago.
-
That day, after taking a medicinal hot spring bath, Uchiha Sasuke felt refreshed all over.

The brand new pure white samurai uniform is also pressed and fitted.

New bathers must play their crowns.

Those who are new to bathing must shake their clothes.

A refreshed body, brand new clothes, and a body restored to its full glory.

Everything is so satisfying.

On the other side, Hyuga Neji in the hot spring was very dissatisfied and said half-jokingly:
"In Orochimaru's eyes, there is only room for you."

As the saying goes, is it the person who is able to observe the body and accept the warmth of things?

After just soaking in a hot spring, who can accept old clothes that have just experienced a battle and are full of blood and dust?
"Haha, just get one more thing."

Uchiha Sasuke heard the implication of Neji's words.

Without showing any interest in this place, he started rummaging around without any ceremony.

In a moment, he found a brand new black samurai uniform of the same style and threw it to Neji in the hot spring.

Afterwards, the two chatted and returned to Sasuke's room together.

Yinyin's attendant Long Guang delivered today's dinner in a timely manner.

Fruits, vegetables, meat and eggs, wine and food, everything is available.

It is said that Orochimaru specially ordered that the two of them consumed a lot today and added a few more delicious dishes.

The two of them sat down laughing and drank more wine.

After a while, the food was all gone and the cups and plates were in a mess.

After drinking and eating, I learned that the room next door had been vacated for Neji.

Hyuga Neji didn't have any important luggage, so he just moved in.

That night, Uchiha Sasuke reorganized his backpack again, including detonating charms, ghost sleep secret medicine and other items.

In addition, the marks made when leaving showed no trace of being touched by others.

Sasuke looked at the flickering candlelight beside the table and let out a sigh of relief.

Finally, it was officially settled.

Immediately, Uchiha Sasuke lay back on the bed and turned on the system as usual.

When he looked up, he saw a wonderful system prompt, quietly waiting for him——

[Congratulations on completing your proposal - taking the initiative to reveal to Orochimaru that you have activated the Mangekyō Sharingan. Obtain a C-level scroll! 】

Uchiha Sasuke suddenly became energetic. He looked at the scroll with azure light in his mind and hurriedly recited in his heart:

turn on.

[You have opened the C-level scroll, congratulations, you have got a chance to upgrade the props]

Prop upgrade?

What do you mean?
Such rewards have never been seen before since coming into contact with the system.

Just when Sasuke was confused, the system interface suddenly changed again. Icons and options for three items appeared on the panel, which read:

A. [300 Explosive Talisman] - Upgraded to [300 Fine Explosive Talisman], which greatly increases its explosion power and explosion range;

B. [Beast Whispering Heart] - Upgraded to [Crazy Beast Heart], based on the original function, it can also briefly capture the animals around you, make them go berserk, and participate in auxiliary battles;

C. [Psychic Puppet] - Upgraded to [Psychic Puppet], based on the original function, you can also randomly obtain a ninjutsu ability mastered by the puppet target.

It can be refreshed repeatedly to reacquire skills and accumulate refresh times every ten days;
Uchiha Sasuke became interested in an instant. He kept deducing in his mind and began to weigh and compare the advantages and disadvantages between the three.

Overall, the certainty of the three should continue to decrease from high to low.

The upper limit increases step by step from low to high.

The detonating talisman is a consumable item.

Whether it is the original detonating talisman or the upgraded version of the high-quality detonating talisman, one can roughly imagine its specific application scenarios and application effects.

If designed properly, it might be as powerful as an A-level or even S ninjutsu.

But no matter what, this thing can be bought with money.

It would probably be too wasteful to just use up the C-level rewards of a system. Let’s talk about this [Crazy Beast Heart].

At first glance, it seems to be very powerful, but if you think about it carefully, how much combat power can those animals in nature provide?
Compared to the damage caused by ninjutsu, the threat of animals may not be as simple as ten detonating charms.

Besides, didn’t we agree to be nature’s good friend?
How could he be promoted to the position of slave owner with just one upgrade?
Finally, let’s look at the so-called [Psychic Puppet].

Judging purely from the description, it is indeed the option with the most obvious gain and a higher upper limit.

In addition to the cooperation with Suigetsu, such as the cooperation with Neji and Naruto.

Or, if you are more courageous, you can cooperate with Jiraiya.
As long as the ninja who can sign the contract is stronger.

So, theoretically speaking, there is no upper limit to the gain effect.

However, look at it in light of the actual situation at hand.

In his current situation, even if he obtained the secret ninja skills of Ghost Light and Suigetsu, he would not dare to use them easily.

Once exposed, even if it just reminds Orochimaru and others, they will once again think of the existence of "Ghost Light Suigetsu".

Then, I am afraid that it will bring many potential threats to Shuiyue.

In other words, in the short term of one or two years, as long as he stays in Orochimaru's base.

One more day of waiting will mean one more day of unavailability of this feature.

This also means that the short-term practicality of this option can be said to be approximately zero.

After all, this humble [300 Premium Detonating Talisman] has more clear benefits.

Uchiha Sasuke hesitated again and again, but still couldn't make up his mind.

As soon as his mind moved, he called out to Gui Deng Shui Yue in his mind:
"Hey, let me tell you, why are you so quiet today?"

"Huh? Me? Me?"

Gui Deng Shui Yue was thinking about something and agreed in a panic:

"No, hey, aren't you still sleeping?"

"What are you thinking about?"

Uchiha Sasuke asked casually.

"I just think, eh, I'm so lucky to meet you."

Gui Deng Shui Yue sighed with emotion and said slowly:
"Although, I still can't do anything. But no matter what, the world outside is indeed much more exciting than what you can see in that water tank!"

It was hard for Sasuke to empathize.

Without answering, he simply asked directly:
"Let me ask, do you have any particularly powerful ninjutsu abilities?"

"Is it okay to ask this too?"

Gui Deng Shuiyue sounded surprised.

Immediately afterwards, he lectured seriously:
"I said, between ninjas, each other's fighting ability is life-related trump card information!

"Don't ask questions to others casually. This is a very rude behavior."

"Experimental Ornamental Fish, have you forgotten your identity?"

Uchiha Sasuke sighed helplessly, interrupted Suigetsu's lesson, and reminded him in his mind:

"The note on your water tank has already posted all the information about your trump card. That is to say, you always interrupted me at that time and failed to read it carefully."

"Uh"

Kito Suigetsu was speechless for a moment, and couldn't help but recall Neji's evaluation of Sasuke in the hot spring in the afternoon——

It's really, really pertinent.

"Then why are you asking me? Go and see for yourself!"

Gui Deng Shui Yue said angrily.

Uchiha Sasuke stopped talking.

Then I'll go see it myself.

After thinking about it, I still feel that no matter how good the "detonating talisman" is, it is still a one-time deal.

Speaking of which, they are all incremental rewards, so you can earn whatever you choose.

Thinking of this, Uchiha Sasuke thought hard and directly selected the third option in his mind——

[Psychic Puppet] solemnly pressed the confirmation function.

Immediately, a program poured directly into Sasuke's mind.

It is different from the "memory" or "perception" obtained before.

This program is more like a packaged thing.

Like a black box, it exists somewhere in the mind.

Uchiha Sasuke tried to activate the switch.

The next second, a large amount of water suddenly emerged around him.

The outer layer of moisture, like a thin film, fluctuates and condenses into specific shapes.

Sasuke only felt an unprecedented surge of water-type chakra in his body.

From the outside, the water outside Sasuke's body has formed a huge water monster.

Judging from its shape, this water monster looks like a round puffer fish.

The face has a row of huge fangs.

On the back, there are slightly raised circular patterns like tortoise shells.

As the water ball fluctuated, large and small spikes surged all over the water monster's body.

On the top of the head and on the tail, there are two fin-like protrusions that tremble and stand tall.

As the water-type chakra in Sasuke's body continued to pour out, the water monster's figure also grew, filling the entire house in an instant.

Sasuke felt that if he didn't deliberately restrain himself, this water monster could continue to expand, and he didn't know what its upper limit was.

"!!"

On the side, Gui Deng Shuiyue, who was sulking, was suddenly stunned by the scene in front of him.

"You, you, when were you?"

Ghost Lantern Shuiyue said incoherently:
"This, this, this is not"

"What is it?"

Uchiha Sasuke put away his ninjutsu and asked the other party calmly as if nothing had happened.

"No, what about you?

"This, why is this."

Oni Deng Suigetsu's brain was completely shut down. In front of him, what Sasuke just used was clearly his own exclusive secret technique.

However, why did this young man, whom he had never seen before, master it so skillfully?
Could it be that when we were in Kirigakure Ninja Village?
"You let me see it myself, then I'll take a look."

Uchiha Sasuke said with an innocent look.

"What on earth is going on?
"I said, who are you?!"

Gui Deng Shui Yue went completely crazy, wailing softly.

Uchiha Sasuke didn't hide it, and immediately told the other party all the new abilities of [Psychic Puppet].

However, Sasuke hid everything about "system upgrades".

It can only be regarded as a hidden function that has always existed in [Mind Puppet] and has not been mentioned to Suigetsu.

"So, you didn't use this in today's battle. It was to protect my existence."

After Gui Deng Shuiyue understood it, he suddenly felt moved in his heart.

"what?

"what"

Uchiha Sasuke responded perfunctorily.

If you say yes, then so be it.

"So, what is the name of the move I just used? What are its functions and combat characteristics?"

Uchiha Sasuke asked.

"Wait a minute, you just said that there is only one ninjutsu you can get from me, and it is completely random?"

Gui Deng Shui Yue thought of something again and asked.

"Yes."

Uchiha Sasuke nodded, not knowing why the other party asked.

"So, you picked my strongest defensive ninjutsu—Water Release·Zhenwu Hat in one go?!"

"So, the name of this style is Water Release·Zhenwu Hat."

Uchiha Sasuke nodded, looking like he suddenly understood.

hateful.

It doesn’t matter if you are strong, you still have such good luck.

Gui Deng Shui Yue felt resentful and resentful that the other party didn't pull out a "water body" or "water slug" to pull him down.

Afterwards, the two chatted for a while.

After Suigetsu calmed down, he told Uchiha Sasuke all about the power and usage techniques of the "Uchikara Hat".

Unknowingly, maybe it was because of the leak of the "ninja's trump card".

The relationship between the two people also became closer and closer with the development of this incident.

Some people say that the essence of friendship is constant exchange:

Exchange information, exchange emotions, exchange time, and more importantly - exchange secrets.

If two people spend too much time together, they will inevitably talk about their secrets.

But self-exposure does not necessarily harm friendships.

As psychologists usually think.

Good interpersonal relationships are gradually developed in the process of gradually increasing self-exposure.

By sharing the unique thoughts and secrets in each other's lives.

An indescribable sense of familiarity and trust is nurtured within it.

The connections between individuals are also increasing day by day.
