Chapter 287 Akainu is defeated?
This is one of the new features of [Friends Bar].

You can observe the status of your friends, whether they are in the game or in the real world.

Both parties can also send each other gifts every day to increase intimacy. When the intimacy reaches a certain level, they will be able to get some special materials and props.

Or you can unlock some friendship buffs, which will give you attribute bonuses when forming a team.

And the ability to watch battles,

If friends are dueling in a special battle space, you as a friend cannot help, but you can watch the battle.

You only need to pay a bonus point to project the image of the interior of the battle space.

"It's Boss Naruto, he's fighting someone else!"

Konohamaru was very excited, and quickly used up his bonus points to project the battle space, boasting: "When there's a chance later, I'll introduce you to Boss Naruto. He's a very easy-to-talk-to guy, and he treats his friends very well!"

"Now, I'll show you what Boss Naruto is capable of!"

The projection was in the form of a light screen, and was shared by Konohamaru with the leader of the Demon Slayer Corps and the strongest Rock Pillar.

Not only the edge of the Glen Forest,
There are also many places where players curiously turn on the projection, wanting to watch the rare game duels.

After all, rule-based props like these are special outputs of high-level monsters. They are rare and only top players can get them.

How can the battle between top players not be attractive?

Especially Uzumaki Naruto,
He is an optimistic person with no scheming personality. He met a lot of players during the game, and his friend column is filled with four digits.

There are hundreds of light screens lighting up everywhere in the game world.

"A showdown between Konoha and players from another world?"

Near the Wannian Snow Mountain, in the city of [Ston] where a large number of Bantu people live,
The busy Mei Terumi raised her head and looked at the two figures that appeared in the projection, her eyes narrowed slightly.

She said, "Choujuro, get someone from the intelligence team to come over and record the battle between Konoha and the navy, and roughly estimate the current strength of Konoha's players, as well as the combat power of the alien navy."

Uzumaki Naruto is considered to be the strongest top player in Konoha.

The only one who can be stronger than him is Tsunade, and the rest are not very strong opponents. Their level is roughly the same as the newly formed [Ninja Swordsmen].

As she spoke, she looked at Chojuro with some dissatisfaction and said, "As for you, as the right-hand man of the Mizukage, you are just barely touching the threshold of a top player. Have you worked hard to hunt monsters?"

"You have been eliminated by this version, do you understand, Chojuro?"

"Yes."

The honest man said with a bitter face.

"It's Admiral Akainu's battle. Who's on the other side? What a strange yellow-haired kid?"

Even players who have not logged into the Arad map can open the projection screen.

The one who spoke was the navy recruit who was saved by Akainu.

His name is Sig.
He used to be a bandit near Windmill Village in Goa Kingdom, but was frightened by the notorious Pirate Four Emperors Red-Haired Shanks.

It has been stagnant ever since.

He was reduced to being hated by everyone and even having trouble getting food. When he went out to sea to fish, he encountered a small sea king.

Just when he thought he was about to end this boring life, a figure appeared in front of him.

The bandit king Sig still remembers the scene clearly.

"Admiral Akainu, your leg. Woohoo~"

Thinking of how Admiral Akainu had his right leg bitten off by a small sea king in order to save him, Sig felt his nose getting sore and tears couldn't stop flowing from the corners of his eyes.

"Don't cry, only cowards cry!"

Akainu took off the rose accessory on his chest, hung it on Sig's chest and said: "This rose medal is my most important accessory, I will give it to you for safekeeping."

"When you become an outstanding marine, remember to return it to me."

"Sig, we agreed to kill all pirates who violate justice!"

That is, at that time,
Sig, who had just become a player and was valued by Akainu, rowed to the gate of the naval base in a tattered wooden boat and loudly expressed his dream: "My name is Sig, and I want to be the king of the navy!"

The memory ended. Looking at the Akainu fighting in the projection, Sig clenched his fists tightly and thought to himself: "The Admiral of the Navy will never lose!"

Looking at the projections lighting up everywhere, Fang Yi sighed helplessly and said, "Originally, the [Arena] function was supposed to be activated after the second-level player appeared, but because the players tripped each other up, it has not been updated until now."

The [Duel] rule items dropped by monsters are actually props prepared for the arena.

As a result, it has not been put into use yet.

but,

Fang Yi's gaze slightly shifted to the Straw Hat Pirates who were constantly gathering materials for the [Family Building] mission, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

I don’t know whether to say that fools have good luck, or that new players are just incredibly lucky and there is a welfare period for new players.

Near Wannian Snow Mountain,

The Snow Ninja and the Mist Ninja are fighting each other, both wanting to snatch the first kill of [Ice-Hearted Boy] Charlie, and the confrontation is fierce.

Near Belmar, a melee was witnessed between Konoha and the navy, as well as Orochimaru's sneak attack.

Near the Dark Elf Kingdom are Iwagakure and Kumogakure, as well as Whitebeard and Red-haired Shanks who have just landed.

With the appearance of the pirate world, the ninja world, which had originally achieved a tenuous balance,
The balance is broken.

All fell into battle and chaos, and began to snatch monsters and resources.

On the contrary, the Straw Hat Pirates, a small group that is powerful but has no influence, are actively collecting materials to break through to the second level.

Ignored by countless people.

"The Straw Hat Pirates, Buggy and Crocodile, and the lone rangers of the ninja world, let's see who can successfully break through to the second level before the situation changes?"

After all,
The second stage is a transformation of the life level, and improving combat power is just a side benefit.

After a first-stage weakling transforms into a second-stage weakling, he is still a weakling, just like a Lv.28 trash in the game. Even if he has a level advantage, he will still be beaten up by a Lv.19 player full of artifacts.

The greatest function of upgrading is to unlock the key to further evolution!

but,

Some forces do not want to disrupt the current balance.

They were worried that the emergence of [Level 2] would lead to their elimination, so they took the lead and began to do their best to prevent players from breaking through Level 2.

This led to the formation of this bad atmosphere.

"This kind of old stubborn people who are content with the status quo, weak-willed, and afraid of being swept away by the tide of the times will always appear in various forms."

"Not surprising."

Fang Yi sighed inwardly,

However, the final right of interpretation of the reincarnation game is not in the hands of these corrupt souls. Their weak wills cannot stop the rolling torrent and will eventually be submerged and eliminated.

However, what these old stubborn people did was not a bad thing.

Preventing the emergence of second-level players will cause delays in game updates, which is also a disguised way for players to familiarize themselves with the new version of the game environment in advance.

After all, these rule-based items themselves can involve the second order.

Just like the [Duel] rule items,

When the arena system appears, it will serve as a registration ticket, and the winner of each competition will receive various rewards and incentives.

"Akainu, this time it might be dangerous."

"Naruto Uzumaki's strength is likely to exceed the imagination of One Piece players."

It is different from the world of pirates, where strong people are cultivated by fighting each other and using the poisonous insect mode.

The ninja world is completely in parenting mode. Uzumaki Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke, the two children of destiny, are players who are cultivated by the entire ninja world.

Extraordinary.
