Chapter 119 We received feedback from players
Mei Terumi's eyes were cold, and she wished she could bite to death the game merchant who was obsessed with money.

She asked, "A family emblem that's almost as expensive as the Mangekyō Sharingan. What power does it have?"

I just spent all my money buying silver materials, and now the family emblem appears.

Mei Terumi regretted in her heart that she should not have founded a family earlier. She should have waited for the Dawn Family to be established, then contacted Sunagakure and Iwagakure to launch a surprise attack on each other and destroy the family monument.

No one should think about starting a family, which means no one needs to waste reward points.

Standing in the empty family territory, Qing carefully read the introduction to the family emblem and explained, "In the information, the player is shown the abilities of two family emblems."

Mei Terumi also opened the family panel and flipped through the information on the family emblem.

There were two badges on display.

The first one is the size of a palm, azure blue all over, and shaped like a family emblem that looks like a complete snowflake.

"Family emblems are divided into two types: combat and auxiliary."

"This badge is called the [Snow Soul Badge]. It is a combat badge and can be embedded in the clan monument. After it is activated, it consumes a certain amount of reward points every minute and provides 10 points of ice attribute attack enhancement to all clan members."

"All family members?"

Mei Terumi's emerald eyes lit up, and she asked in surprise, "Can it provide a full 10 points of ice attribute attack enhancement?"

Qing nodded and said, "Yes, that's what the information says. Although the game merchants pay more attention to reward points, the exchange items they sell are fair and honest, and there have been no defective items."

10 points of ice attribute attack enhancement!
Mei Terumi took a deep breath and gently stroked her chest with her white and tender hands to soothe her violently beating heart.

A set of attribute-enhancing armor must be of level 15 green quality to provide 10 points of attribute attack enhancement.

After she tried wearing attribute-enhanced armor, even the thrown kunai had fire attribute energy attached to it, and the skill strength would also increase. The higher the attribute attack, the stronger the amplification effect.

After Mei Terumi calmed down, she asked, "Qing, how much does a set of green-quality armor, attribute enhancement type, cost?"

Qing thought for a moment and replied, "You can buy a complete set of armor directly from merchant players, and the price fluctuates roughly around 4,000 reward points. Some individual player groups sell it at a lower price, but there are no complete sets of armor, only individual pieces."

During this period, players have been frantically clearing the Dead Soul Camp, which resulted in a large number of blue and green quality armor and jewelry being dropped, causing the price of equipment to drop slightly, otherwise it would be even more expensive.

Hear the answer,

The emotions that Mei Terumi had suppressed with great difficulty suddenly surged up again, and she said excitedly, "There is actually such a good thing?"

The two hundred players of the Kirigakure family can all provide 10 points of ice attribute enhancement.

It is equivalent to two hundred sets of green quality armor, which is absolutely an astronomical figure!

The family emblem only costs 10 reward points, which is really worth the money. No... it can be considered as picking up reward points for free.

even,

Mei Terumi felt a sense of pleasure in her heart as she got her revenge after being cheated out of the silver heart material.

"How many reward points do we have left in our warehouse?"

"Eighty thousand reward points."

Mei Terumi hesitated for a moment and said, "We have just occupied two properties on the border of the Fire Country. Let's prepare them first. If we don't get any special rewards in three days, we can just buy a random family emblem."

"Mizukage-sama."

Qing reminded him tactfully: "Family emblems are very random. The combat ones include physical attack, energy attack, physical defense, energy defense, movement speed, and release speed..."

"It's very difficult to randomly generate the desired family emblem."

Most of the players of the Kirigakure family are Kirigakure ninjas and civilians from the Land of Water. Their attack methods tend to be energy and water attributes, and there are many mage-type professions.

If a badge like the one that increases physical attack appears randomly, it means that 10 reward points are wasted.

"even……"

Qing sighed and continued, "There are also auxiliary badges, such as badges that increase tailoring skills, which can increase the success rate when making cloth armor, or energy potion badges, which increase the success rate of mixing energy potions, or the chance of mutation."

Mei Terumi was so excited that she collapsed in an instant.

Then his eyes were fixed on the chat channel and the announcement posted by the game merchant.

The family emblem with the (fixed) suffix means that you can actively select the attributes of the emblem, without having to rely on luck like opening a can.

Mei Terumi was filled with regret and sighed, "Whoever gets the special reward will earn hundreds of thousands of reward points. Damn it..."

In a short period of time, it is impossible to produce enough silver hearts to surpass the Dawn Family.

Are we just going to watch the Dawn Family take away the special reward?
Of course not.

behind the screen,
Looking at Konan with a calm expression on her face, and Mei Terumi who was full of reluctance.

As for the Sand Village and the Hot Spring Country Konoha who were keeping their troops in place, Fang Yi showed a relieved smile.

Is competitiveness the most important thing about games?
How could it be that players have no way to use their strength and have reward points but nowhere to spend them?
Looking at the lost looks of the top players, Fang Yi decided to stand up and protect the players' smiles, which is his unshirkable responsibility as a game planner.

Two seconds later,
The game merchant issued a special announcement.

[Game Merchant]: In response to recent feedback from most players that the drop rate of the silver material [Sarina's Heart] is too low and the demand is too high, we have made slight changes to the [Dead Soul Camp].

In the Hell-level dungeon, the material explosion rate remains unchanged.

Adventure, Warrior-level Dead Soul Camp, added new materials [Salina's Heart (Purple)], [Salina's Heart (Blue)], [Heart Adhesive] materials.

Consuming [Heart Adhesive] can be used to bond the low-quality material [Salina's Heart]. Once the bonding is successful, the quality will be improved.

……

Who gives feedback?
Don't talk nonsense, when have the players of our Dawn Family ever provided feedback?

The Dawn Family, which had already secured victory, felt the deep malice from the reincarnation game. The merchant alliance that hoarded the remaining five silver materials also hurriedly began to sell them off.

Just half an hour after the special announcement,
[Game Merchant]: Congratulations to player [Elder Sand Village] for founding the Sand Village Family.

[Game Merchant]: Congratulations to player [Huang Tu] for founding the Iwagakure family.

[Game Merchant]: Congratulations to the player [Inheritor of the Will of Fire] for founding the Konoha Clan.

[Game Merchant]: Congratulations to player [White Scaled Snake] for founding the Konoha Empire family.

The continuous announcements stimulate the players' hearts.

Previously, some forces that did not have a strong foundation or were not very powerful were still waiting and watching, but after seeing the latest announcement, they chose to establish a family without hesitation.

Don’t they want to start a family and compete for special rewards?
How can it be,

Establishing a clan can bring together players. The earlier you establish it, the better the effect will be. Repeated delays are just a helpless move.

Otherwise, when Kirigakure and Dawn were acquiring the Silver Heart, no one was willing to sell the 40,000 reward points because they were all eager to make a move.

……

Sunagakure, Kazekage Building.

The sculptures of Fengying from past dynasties exude a cold color and are solemnly displayed in the center of the parliament hall.

Luo Sha, who was resurrected from the dead, had a look of fear and anger on his face.

The dignified Kazekage was actually ambushed by Orochimaru, resulting in the Sand Village not being able to gain any advantage in the Konoha collapse plan.

"Gaara."

Luo Sha suddenly spoke, breaking the quiet atmosphere.

He raised his head and looked with complicated eyes at Gaara who was sitting at the last seat. This One-Tailed Jinchūriki of the Sand Village was also his biological son.

He also took out the resurrection coin, willing to let the Fourth Kazekage, his savior, return to the world.

"Kazekage-sama."

Gaara had a blank expression on his face, as if he were a monster without any emotions.

But Luo Sha could clearly see the hatred and fear flashing in the other person's eyes. It didn't seem like he was looking at his father and Fengying, but at an enemy.

I sighed slightly in my heart,

Luo Sha suddenly stood up and said in a very serious tone: "Gaara, the Jinchuriki of the One-Tail Shukaku, was cowardly and could not withstand the strong mental pressure of Shukaku. He went berserk many times in his childhood. As the Fourth Kazekage, I judged him to be a complete failure."

Cold and heartless words,
The elders present at the Sand Village couldn't help but frown.

Temari looked dissatisfied. Although she was a little afraid of Gaara, he was her brother after all. She couldn't bear to see Gaara's scars being torn open in public. She wanted to speak but was stopped by the silent Kankuro.

Another old-fashioned trick?

Mental stimulation, sending assassinations, all of which are intended to kill me and replace me with a new Jinchūriki, simply because I am an absolute failure.

Yashamaru thought I was the murderer of my sister.

Temari and Kankuro are afraid of me.

My father treated me as a failure and kept trying to kill me.

Even my mother hated me deeply before she died. So, who am I?
Gaara lowered his head, the chakra in his body became violent involuntarily, and Shukaku's shrill laughter began to sound in his mind again.

Hatred, misfortune, killing...

This is the value of one's existence.

The sand in the gourd behind him surged up like a storm and adhered to Gaara's skin, turning half of his body into a raccoon monster, full of chaos and malice.

"Killing you is the value of my life!"

"Still can't control yourself?"

Rasa frowned slightly and did not directly release ninjutsu to control Gaara as he did when Shukaku went berserk in the past.

Instead, he raised his feet and walked towards Gaara with firm steps.

"Want to kill me?... Come on!"

"A failure like me, a monster like me, should have died a long time ago, right?"

The monster raised its head and stared at its father who was so close to it but seemed like a stranger.

This feeling of being abandoned by the whole world is so painful.

Luo Sha's eyes were calm, but his heart was aching.
Since succeeding the Fourth Kazekage, he has been busy working for the Sand Village and has never taken a good look at Gaara like he did today.

As the Kazekage, he should have a heart of stone and devote everything to Sunagakure.

But just a second before he was killed by Orochimaru and Kabuto Yakushi, the image of Gaara appeared in his mind.

"It's me who should say sorry."

Luo Sha took a deep breath and bent down towards Gaara.

"In the eyes of the Fourth Kazekage, you are a failure."

"But I am not only the Fourth Kazekage, I am also your father. From a father's perspective, I am the horrible monster and a complete loser."

The emergence of reincarnation games,
The destruction of the strongest ninja village and his own death suddenly made Luo Sha see many things more clearly.

At first, he was determined to revive Sunagakure even if it meant exhausting himself, but he didn't trust anyone at all, including his own son, who was treated as a tool by him.

The final outcome of this would probably not be much better than Konoha.

Kankuro's punch really hurt.

"Are you...crazy?"

Gaara's tense heartstrings suddenly trembled violently. He couldn't imagine hearing such words.

Yashamaru, mother...

"all fake."

As if he could figure out Gaara's heart, Luosha's eyes were filled with deeper guilt, and he said, "Yashamaru, and your mother, they are the people who love you the most in the world."

With five fingers spread out, dazzling gold dust burst out.

It hit Gaara's gourd.

Before Gaara could react, the sand in the gourd had already flowed out, blocking Luosha's gold sand.

Gaara felt warm, like a ray of light that dispelled the darkness. This kind of chakra aura surrounded him.

"The power of absolute defense does not come from Shukaku."

"It's your mother, Karura's chakra. Even before she died, she was still thinking about you and wanted to protect you."

……

Rain Ninja Village,
It was still pouring rain.

The densely packed black iron buildings look like a forest made of steel, giving people an uncomfortable feeling of suffocation.

The top of the crooked building, which is made up of strange-shaped iron pipes, overlooks the entire village.

Sitting on the top of the building, Payne, with a huge iron mask on his tongue, had an indifferent expression.

“Childish concept!”

Payne muttered to himself.

He couldn't remember how many times he had argued with Xiaonan in recent times.

Even if they are partners working together, they will not give in even a little when faced with ideological disputes.

"Only pain can bring true peace, wishful persuasion and understanding?"

He didn't say the rest.

The friend who was killed proved that this path was wrong. People who have never experienced pain cannot understand each other.

"Nagato."

Xiaonan's figure appeared in mid-air, and the white paper wings behind her made her look like an angel.

Nagato unconsciously lowered his eyes slightly.

But I saw a black envelope being handed over.

The ripples of the Rinnegan shook slightly. This was Nagato's state of staring. He felt a little strange. It was clearly an envelope without any chakra fluctuations, but it was able to avoid the falling rain.

It's like there's a barrier that separates it from the entire world.

"I founded the Dawn Family, and I get two game invitations every month. This way, Nagato can also become a player."

No outsiders,

Konan's icy demeanor seemed to melt a little, and she looked at Nagato with a smile in the corner of her eyes.

Nagato frowned, raised his hand and lowered it again, saying coldly: "I said before, your idea is totally unrealistic. Only by gathering the tailed beasts can we bring about true peace. I don't have the time to help you."

"Becoming a player can make you stronger and can also help you collect the tailed beasts."

Konan does not object to the action of collecting the tailed beasts.
During this period, she had close contact with the grassroots civilians and realized that in order to change the reality, not only an attitude of mutual understanding was needed, but also strong strength as a backing.

"I don't need to become stronger, I am already the god of this world!"

Nagato, who was controlling Pain's body, said this with no expression.
But the main body in the base was unexpectedly a little angry because of his partner's suspicion of him.

With these eyes that are said to "control the cycle of life and death", no one in the ninja world can be his opponent. Even Uchiha Madara who is hiding behind the Akatsuki organization, he has the confidence to fight him.

Konan raised her eyes and looked directly at Pein, as if she saw Nagato. She said, "The latest news is that the former Konoha ninjas wanted by the Konoha Empire, led by Sarutobi Hiruzen, have settled in the Land of Hot Springs. Among them is the deceased Fourth Hokage, Namikaze Minato."

"Resurrecting the dead?"

"That's right. In the battle that destroyed Konoha, Sarutobi Hiruzen was killed by Ōnoki's Dust Release, and was also resurrected intact."

This is the terrifying power of the reincarnation game.

Even the dead can return to the world intact.

Payne sat in silence in the rain.
Resurrecting the dead... The ability of the Rinnegan can also do this, the Outer Path Reincarnation Technique, which can resurrect the dead after being released.

But it requires a lot of the caster's vitality.

He also has the ability to resurrect the recently dead Sarutobi Hiruzen, but to resurrect Namikaze Minato who has been dead for many years... is simply impossible.

Even if I exhaust all my vitality, I can't do it.

Otherwise, Yahiko would have been resurrected by himself long ago.

After a long moment of silence,
Nagato then confirmed: "Unbelievable ability, perhaps the distance between the Pure Land in the other world and the real world is relatively close, so they can research a unique resurrection technique, which does not mean that the game merchant is powerful."

He is very opposed to reincarnation games and believes that game merchants are blaspheming peace.

"That's not the case."

Footsteps suddenly sounded.

A voice stepped on the messy pipes neither fast nor slow, and climbed out of the dark and cold tilted iron tower from behind Payne.

“When we encounter new things, what we need to do is to approach them, then understand and digest them, rather than locking ourselves in a dark and narrow room like the old Hanzo.”

"What's the difference between your Mask House and Hanzo's office?"

Blocked by the dark clouds, the cold light without temperature fell on the person who came, unable to hide the eye-catching orange-yellow hair.

Yahiko looked at the puppet body controlled by Nagato and smiled as warmly as the sun.

"Long time no see, Nagato."
