Chapter 55 Danzo Arrives
Chapter 55 Danzo Arrives
In the end, Akali still didn't tie her headband into a leg ring... oops, I mean, she didn't.
Being obsessed with everything will only harm you.
As for where to put the headband, you can just do what Kakashi does and put a glove on the back of your hand; it can even block a knife in a critical moment.
After receiving their headbands and completing their ninja registration, the three members of Team 8 went their separate ways.
Of course, Hinata and Shino had to go back and report to their families, but Akali did not.
According to Iruka, their class is progressing relatively quickly; many other classes, including the seventh and tenth classes, haven't returned yet.
Therefore, Akali had no way to ask Naruto and Sasuke what was going on.
Although there was still the filming session involving Sasuke that needed to be dealt with, Akali was too lazy to care about that after today's battle.
As always, Akali prepares to teleport back to base.
However, just as she habitually opened the mini-map to check on her home, she was surprised to find an uninvited guest standing outside her door!
That's... sexy Sun Bro... ugh, the pot of this world—Danzo!
"Hmm?" Akali's expression quickly turned serious, and her brain, which had just relaxed, started working rapidly.
Akali has three problems.
Why would Danzo come looking for her?
What could Danzo possibly want with her?
And why is Danzo looking for her now?
The first two are easy to explain. What else could Danzo have wanted to see?
But the last one is quite puzzling.
Because she defeated Sasuke and was manipulated by the Third Hokage to stir up a wave of public opinion, Akali's name has already spread far and wide this month.
Her original outfit was quite unique even in Konoha, making her highly recognizable and leaving a deep impression on the people of Konoha.
Akali used to be easily recognized while walking, which was very troublesome, so changing clothes and skins is a necessity for Akali.
Although Oni Maiden was still dazzling, even more eye-catching, at least no one surrounded her asking questions anymore.
Of course, that's not important. What's important is that she's no longer an unknown nobody, someone who can be easily manipulated.
Even if Danzo wanted to recruit her, shouldn't he have struck first before her reputation took off?
"don't know……"
Akali shook her head; Danzo's thought process was indeed beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.
Just like now, she thought that the Third Hokage's method of making her famous to prevent Danzo from recruiting her was very successful, but then Danzo came.
But since Danzo has come to her doorstep, she has no choice but to go and face him.
For Naruto time travelers, facing Danzo is an inevitable lesson, one they cannot avoid.
Akali then went to a secluded place, opened her storage space, and retrieved her potion reservoir.
He shoved the Everlasting Will Sandwich Cookie, the Sorcery Potion, the Wrath Potion, and all sorts of other concoctions into his mouth. He'd already had the Iron Potion, and its effects were still wearing off.
It's alright, though. Reality isn't a game. There are no mutually exclusive effects from potions. They don't serve the same purpose, so they're not mutually exclusive.
Akali then quickly used a potion to restore herself to peak condition and opened her skill panel again.
Akali has gained a total of 27 skill points since the lottery started.
Previously, I used 1 point on Nen control after Naruto and Sasuke kissed, and then used another 11 points. I also used 8 points on Akali's skills and Tibbers, leaving 3 points remaining.
Then, she used another 15 skill points to max out Akali's skills from the Shamanic Order's rogue ninjas, namely Shadow Blade Technique, Shadow Clone Technique, and Shadow Demon Slash. She then leveled up Great Fire Annihilation Technique to level 1. From beginner to proficient, she used 13 skill points, leaving 2 remaining.
In other words, Akali currently has 4 skill points available, enough to max out one of her skills.
However, after looking at my current skill set...
Akali's skills that aren't maxed out include: Rek'Sai, Lava Shield, Contempt, Stone Pierce, Rock Smash, Shattering Flame, Pillar of Flame, Iron Skin/Iron Shirt, Lasso Strike, and Ice Barrier.
She was somewhat annoyed to discover that if she were to fight Danzo, apart from the few protective techniques like Thunderclap, Lava Shield, and Golden Bell Shield, the others would be of little use.
Danzo's characteristics are short, fast, and extremely sharp Wind Release techniques, as well as Sharingan genjutsu and Shisui's right eye.
However, illusions are manageable. Akali has Mercury's Treads with Purify and can use short, quick Wind Release techniques, so you can either dodge or resist them.
And what about fire, which counters wind-style jutsu?
Just kidding. The idea that Fire Release counters Wind Release only applies to the general public. For experts, it's a matter of which is stronger and which counters which.
"So, the only option left is another lottery?"
Akali was a little annoyed; she had never been forced to participate in a lottery before!
The problem now is that she doesn't know what Danzo is doing squatting at the door, because Danzo is capable of anything.
Faced with the unstable Danzo, she must prepare herself to protect herself!
"Star, you motherfucker!"
Akali angrily opened the lottery interface, spewing profanities.
Fortunately, she had only prepared two cards and two draws from the beginning. Otherwise, if Danzo had suddenly forced her to use all her trump cards, she would have wanted to kill Danzo on the spot.
"System, grant me ten chances to win emotional points and ten chances to win money!"
[Ding, host command detected, lottery begins!]
Seemingly aware of the urgency of the situation, the system quickly completed the lottery draw, discarding the items obtained from the draw without Akali even needing to open the pack.
[Congratulations, host, you have won the following through the money lottery: Equipment Synthesis Voucher*1, Skill Points*10]
[Congratulations, host, for obtaining the following through the Emotion Value lottery: Hero Skill - Frosty Chill, Passive - Rising Thunder, Wind Barrier, Summoner Skill - Smite, Summoner Skill - Barrier, Rune - Shield Bash, Rune - Bone Plating, Rune - Revitalize, Passive - Death's Glory, Passive - A Surprise from Icathia!]
"Forehead……"
Akali looked at what she had won in the lottery and her expression turned strange, a strong urge to complain growing within her.
Shield Slam converts a portion of the shield into an attack boost, Bone Plating provides damage resistance, and Resurrection increases both shield and healing effects.
Adding to her previous determination, all those green runes, and the Hextech Gunblade and Augmented Armor in her equipment, does that mean she's actually a top lane Akali?
Leaving aside those, there's also Sion's passive Death's Glory and Kog'Maw's passive Surprise from Icathia.
What's the point of this setup? If she gets killed today, she can rise from her corpse and fight, then explode to wipe out everyone before being resurrected through Frost Rebirth?
"Uh!" Akali suddenly gasped.
Because this process seems quite reasonable, after all, Frostbite involves being reborn as an egg, and Akali doesn't want to have her eggs smashed.
Is this system truly a genius?
