At the former Wood Leaf Village ruins,
The Konoha Empire, currently under reconstruction, was bustling with workers carrying heavy cement bags and lumber to build the new Konoha Empire palace.
At the Imperial Advisor's Residence,
Yan Zhaoxiong and Orochimaru discussed their upcoming strategies and plans.
"You mean, distribute Ninja Art so that all commoners can learn it?"
"Exactly."
Orochimaru extended his tongue, his golden pupils filled with excitement as he explained, "Those foolish Ninja Villages lock all the Ninja Art they research into the Scroll of Seals, simply because they're afraid of losing their advantage if commoners learn Ninja Art."
Take Konoha's secret Ninja Clan, for example.
The Nara Clan's Yin Release Shadow Imitation Jutsu, seemingly profound and a family secret, is publicly advertised as only masterable by Nara Clan members due to their special physique and natural affinity for Yin Release Chakra.
Once it's made public, it will be discovered that while Nara Clan members do have a slight affinity for Yin Release due to years of inheriting the Shadow Imitation Jutsu, that affinity is negligible.
Any exceptionally talented commoner genius with a natural affinity for Yin Release could instantly outperform the Nara Clan, leaving them in the dust.
Just like Minato Namikaze,
He had no family inheritance, no Bloodline Limit, but with his talent, he became famous throughout the Ninja World and became the Fourth Hokage.
There's also the Akimichi Clan's Yang Release Multi-Size Jutsu, the Yamanaka Clan's mental secret Ninja Art, the Aburame Clan, the Inuzuka Clan… all possess their clan's secret Ninja Art.
They guard them strictly, fearing leakage.
Why?
Because once leaked, the secret Ninja Clans' advantage over commoner Ninja will vanish.
This is a class barrier deliberately constructed by Ninja Clans and Ninja Villages.
Even if a commoner has the talent to cultivate Chakra and is lucky enough to enter the Ninja School, after graduating with excellent grades, they can only master basic Ninja Art like the Three Body Jutsu.
Then they go to the battlefield, relying on crude taijutsu and the Three Body Jutsu to survive on a battlefield that is a meat grinder, only then can they exchange for a few common Great Fireball Jutsu at the Ninja Village.
In contrast, what about Ninja from secret Ninja Clans?
Those with slightly less talent, or those from factions close to the Hokage, are thrown into the Ninja School; after graduation, they release their family's secret Ninja Art, easily standing out and quickly growing into Chunin and even Jonin, becoming indispensable core strengths of the Ninja Village.
These commoner Ninja are the stepping stones and whetstones for the secret Ninja Clans, while also serving as high-quality cannon fodder for the Ninja Village's external wars.
Not enough resources?
Forced by circumstances?
Pure nonsense.
The Ninja World, capable of giving birth to the God Tree's Chakra Fruit, is filled with abundant energy; even if everyone cultivated Chakra, there would be enough resources.
Yan Zhaoxiong worried, "If they all cultivate Chakra, won't it cause unrest?"
As a Daimyo, his biggest fear was chaos.
Imperial Advisor Orochimaru's idea was incredibly bold; once implemented, the Konoha Empire could become a public enemy of the Ninja World, as such an action would overturn the Ninja World's centuries-old structure.
Orochimaru laughed, like a cold, venomous snake, and said indifferently, "Increase observation. All commoners who cultivate Chakra will directly become new nobles of the Konoha Empire."
"Commoner Ninja who have tasted power will naturally be unwilling to be reverted to their original state by the old Ninja Clans. At that time, we won't need to act; they themselves will shed their last drop of blood for the Konoha Empire."
Orochimaru presented the already written plan to Yan Zhaoxiong.
Being able to build the Sound Ninja Village from a rogue Ninja in just a few years, Orochimaru's management abilities were excellent, he just hadn't focused his efforts on Ninja Village management.
Yan Zhaoxiong's eyes were burning, and he trembled all over, applauding repeatedly.
"After commoners cultivate Chakra and learn Ninja Art, I will apply Cursed Seals to them, allowing them to become stronger in a short period."
Orochimaru's eyes were full of anticipation.
The Cursed Seal was his proud creation, allowing him to attach his Chakra to the Cursed Seal, indirectly controlling them.
He had already tried it.
He could exchange a portion of the Sound Ninja Four's Ninja Art, who were subjected to the Cursed Seal, from the Reincarnation Game Store. Although it wasn't all of them, only the Ninja Art frequently released after Cursed Seal transformation that carried the Cursed Seal's aura, it was enough to excite Orochimaru.
This was the biggest reason he was willing to become the Imperial Advisor!
If tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, of commoners with Cursed Seals, had their Ninja Art, after cultivating Chakra, exchanged by him, how many reward points would that be?
Just thinking about it made Orochimaru's tongue flutter with excitement.
"This is the true… Era of All Ninja!"
Unrestrained laughter echoed within the Imperial Advisor's Residence.
…
"Kurotsuchi, Akatsuchi, Kitsuchi… and I, Ōnoki, will be the first batch of Iwagakure Ninja to head to the New World."
Ōnoki scanned all the Iwagakure Ninja Clans with a serious expression.
There were a total of fifty Arad Continent maps, allowing fifty Iwagakure Ninja to enter the New World.
The most crucial thing was that,
The New World did not restrict one's inherent strength, meaning even Ōnoki, who had just received the Reincarnation Game invitation and barely leveled up to [7], could unleash his full strength on the Arad Continent.
"Old Man!"
Kitsuchi said with a worried look, "Your Dust Release was indeed very powerful in the old Ninja World, but now it's the era of the Reincarnation Game, so you absolutely cannot be careless."
After becoming a player, his father's strength was clear at a glance.
50 Spirit attribute points, a fully mastered purple skill [Dust Release], and dozens of fully mastered blue skills [Earth Release].
In the former Ninja World, he would probably be the strongest among the Five Kage.
But now, Mei Terumi's displayed strength had completely surpassed the Kage level.
Even if he was unwilling to admit it, the attribute gap and the number of purple skills were there; the Old Man would probably not be her match even if he fought with his life.
Furthermore,
In the Ninja World, there were other powerful Ninja like Mei Terumi, the noble player [Zhihua] from the Land of Rain, Tsunade and Asuma from Konoha, and the rapidly rising Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha at a young age.
He said this to prevent the Old Man from being arrogant.
"I understand, of course."
Ōnoki was not a stubborn person, or rather, his stubbornness only cared about whether Iwagakure could lead the Ninja World.
He was very open to advice on other matters, a rather interesting old man.
Especially after personally becoming a player, he could experience the domineering nature of the Reincarnation Game even more.
His aging physique, no matter how strong, could not avoid physical decay.
Yet, after using [True Scroll] to strengthen his physique attribute, he felt a long-lost surge of vitality, as if he had been given a new lease on life.
He was confident that,
Although he couldn't compare to the top tier of players, after the strength restrictions were lifted, dealing with most game players would be no problem.
…
"Finally, I can show what I'm made of! My hands are itching for action!"
Raikage Ei raised his hands, his clasped palms imbued with extremely strong Lightning Release Chakra, continuously striking the smooth cliff face.
In just half a minute,
The rocky cliff face was punctured with large holes, like cave dwellings, by his hands.
After the Cloud Hidden Clan was founded, Ei used the Reincarnation Game invitation to become a player, but during leveling up, he was monster-killed and player-killed by a passing team of rogue players, which made him rage impotently.
He firmly remembered the faces of those two players.
One was a shark-faced ugly monster carrying a large sword, and the other was a freak whose entire face was covered by a black mask.
Just wait!
After the restrictions are lifted and they go to the Arad Continent, if he encounters those two bastards, he will definitely make them taste the power of the Ninja World's strongest spear!
