However,
Once I use my trump card, the entire sea of skeletons, cultivated with a massive 400,000 reward points, will be wiped out, along with all my elite undead.
My strength will plummet.
Yan Zhaoxiong in the Fire Empire was secretly killed by me, and his necromantic puppet, used to fool the populace, no longer poses a threat.
But there's that bratty Qi Master from the Hiashi Clan; if I show even a hint of weakness, they'll pounce like hungry wolves and completely transform the Fire Empire.
"If I use my trump card and still get blocked by the Dragon Person Leader, the consequences would be unbearable."
If he couldn't kill Lukas,
and failed to get the Reincarnation Game's clearance reward, the Fire Empire, which he had established with such difficulty, might directly erupt into civil war.
The former Sound Ninja Village was just something he created on a whim, and handing it over didn't pain him.
But the Fire Empire was his life's work, his experimental base, and his reward points collector; it absolutely could not be lost.
"Lukas, if fate is kind, we should meet again."
The Dead Spirit Curse Snake vanished,
Orochimaru gave up on clearing the dungeon, opened his arms, and endured the massive lightning ring, letting the electricity tear his defenseless body apart.
"Did he fail?"
"Even Orochimaru failed the challenge; the Tier 2 Lord is truly terrifying."
The battle concluded,
the light screen projections in the various towns gradually dissipated, with the final image being Lukas's lightning trident piercing Orochimaru's chest.
Lower-level players had no deep feelings, simply enjoying a display of top players' strength.
But those who were also top players had various emotions.
"A fellow even more wicked than me, hehehehe, I wonder if the ninjas of the Fire Empire can make a deal with him?"
Doflamingo let out a sinister laugh.
He hated that self-proclaimed justice, perhaps they were all of the same kind, trampling on humanity's beauty.
He smelled a similar scent from Orochimaru.
That foolish fellow Kaido had already been killed by the Straw Hat Pirates, and he didn't have the habit of exposing himself on the front lines.
A Joker should be an emperor in the shadows.
Orochimaru was a very good partner; he wondered what kind of chips the other party liked.
"Not satisfying enough!"
Inside the tavern, Roger slapped his thigh, recalling the battle he had just witnessed.
He tilted his head back and guzzled down a whole bottle of rum.
Rayleigh's face was filled with distress; he quickly gathered the rest of the alcohol on the table into his arms and said, "Roger, drink slower. This isn't some cheap liquor found everywhere."
In taverns across the towns of Arad, all kinds of high-grade alcohol were sold.
These drinks had various functions.
Some could boost four-dimensional attributes, while others could increase skill strength, restore health, and energy.
Not only did they require reward points, but they also needed corresponding contribution points.
Contribution points referred to special rewards obtained after killing monsters in dangerous areas or helping residents complete quests.
Therefore, every bottle of alcohol was extremely expensive.
Rayleigh regretted it greatly; he really shouldn't have brought Roger to a tavern. Such a boorish drinker should just stick his head in the sea and drink his fill.
"That guy, is he called Orochimaru?"
Seeing this, Roger, with a wronged expression, pulled out the ale he had brought from his pocket, and after drinking it, said, "He's very strong. Even if all of Roger's Adventurers combined, they probably couldn't defeat him."
This was an affirmation of Orochimaru's strength.
But Roger frowned tightly and said, "But his fighting style is all about schemes and calculations."
"Moreover, he clearly had further means at the end, but he willingly gave up the challenge."
"If he were a pirate or an Adventurer, he would definitely be one of the people I dislike the most."
Listening to the Breath of All Things, besides being able to perceive souls, also meant Roger's extremely keen observation skills.
Orochimaru's final hesitation and choice,
were all seen by him.
It was a Dragon Person Leader that no one had ever challenged before, unprecedented, the greatest adventure was right before him, yet he just withdrew.
If it were Roger, even if it meant risking his life and sacrificing everything, he would fight until the very last moment.
Perhaps,
this was the difference in philosophy between the two worlds.
Roger was the most standard pirate and Adventurer, enjoying adventure; to put it harshly, he was a brute, to put it nicely, he followed his heart.
Even if he died on the path of adventure, he would have no regrets.
And Orochimaru, besides scientific research, was also the most standard ninja.
Perfect execution, a willingness to use any means to achieve his goals, and absolutely never letting his emotions interfere with his objectives.
Therefore,
after a brief exchange, players from the Pirate World and the Ninja World had already erupted into dozens of battles.
"These damned bastards."
Orochimaru roared in anger.
In the dangerous area covered by the Sky Sea, lava fists continuously fell from the sky, and forests were frozen in ice.
Naruto Uzumaki's golden flames, like a blazing sun, illuminated every shadowy corner, with countless shadow clones and Rasengan scattered throughout the forest.
"Apocalypse!"
The golden-haired Tsunade, clad in armor, let out a delicate cry.
A massive golden orb of light ascended into the sky, and the Konoha Ninjas illuminated by it felt as if their bodies were covered by warm sunlight.
Their combat power surged.
This Orb of Apocalypse was a Paladin's core ability, possessing a very powerful group buff effect.
Naruto Uzumaki received the greatest boost.
His and Tsunade's professions were very similar; although both were holy light, due to the different worlds, the manifested states were different.
The golden flames burning fiercely on Naruto's body were a mixture of holy light and will,
generating a power similar to a contract.
Regarding Naruto's battles,
as long as he firmly held the oath of holy light in his heart, the stronger his own conviction, the greater the power he could unleash.
Just like protecting Konoha or protecting his comrades, if his comrades were harmed or destroyed, Naruto could even unleash power surpassing Orochimaru.
This was the path Naruto chose to protect Konoha after witnessing its destruction back then.
The core of the Temple Knight was called [Holy Light Contract],
it was Konoha's strongest trump card.
Whenever external enemies invaded, the more Konoha Ninjas and civilians suffered casualties, and the greater the extent of the village's destruction, the stronger Naruto's power became.
Facing Orochimaru, who had once harmed Konoha,
the holy flames on Naruto Uzumaki's body were almost solidifying, as he frantically pursued Orochimaru.
"Don't miss this opportunity."
"Orochimaru died once in the Dragon Person Tower, and his life lock has disappeared. If we kill him now, we can weaken his strength."
Jiraiya, riding on Gamabunta's head, searched for Orochimaru's tracks.
The Necromancer's specialty, besides manipulating corpses, was escaping.
Not only the Konoha Ninjas,
the Marines also wanted to find Orochimaru to avenge the stolen Sky Sea Key.
But even with the encirclement and pursuit from both groups of players, Orochimaru was still able to constantly slip away, which spoke volumes about his survival skills.
A small snake, like an earthworm,
completely concealed its aura, burrowed into a rock crevice, and escaped through the rotten, damp underground towards the Gran Forest.
On the other side,
Demon Slayer World.
In the alternate dimension that didn't exist in reality, named [Infinity Castle] by Muzan Kibutsuji,
"Have you found out?"
Muzan Kibutsuji, still in the form of a formally dressed child, stood on a floor suspended in the air.
Around him were various experimental equipment, test tubes, beakers, copper stands, and all sorts of strange liquids mixed together, producing peculiar reactions.
"Lord Muzan."
The figure kneeling on the ground trembled incessantly, as if extremely afraid.
A tumor-like bulge grew on his forehead, and he had two horns on his head, making him look like a somewhat deformed old man.
"After accepting the game invitation, your subordinate was teleported to a strange forest."
"It was filled with monsters everywhere."
"All actions required paying a currency called reward points, which could be used to purchase goods."
"It felt to me like a noble's hunting game."
Hantengu knelt on the ground obediently, his head pressed tightly against the floor, trembling all over.
He revealed all the information he had gathered.
"Forest, monsters, currency..."
Muzan Kibutsuji's scarlet eyes showed confusion and fear.
