Chapter 277: Chapter 161 : Seven Dragon Balls!!
[Who is the Sixth Mizukage?]
This time, there are no choices. It falls upon Senju Tobirama to provide the answer himself.
[Senju Hashirama: Is there no other option for this question?]
[Tsunade: Fifth Mizukage, do you have a candidate for the Sixth Mizukage in Kirigakure? Please, tell me!
[Terumi Mei: Why should I say that? It doesn't benefit me at all!]
[Kakashi: Well, considering there are only a few renowned and promising ninjas in Kirigakure, we can deduce it.]
[Nara Shikaku: Both of the Fifth Mizukage's bodyguard, Chojuro and Ao, could be considered as candidates for the Sixth Mizukage. However, Ao is slightly older, even surpassing the Fifth Mizukage in age. If the Fifth Mizukage were to retire later, there would be no chance for Ao to become the Sixth Mizukage. I believe, in such a scenario, Chojuro stands a better chance.]
[Tsunade: Chojuro is indeed a fitting choice for the Sixth Mizukage.]
[Senju Tobirama: Then, shall I announce Chojuro as the answer?
[Senju Hashirama: Brother, go ahead and announce Chojuro as your answer.
And so, Senju Tobirama made his choice.
[Senju Tobirama: The Sixth Mizukage is Chojuro.]
Soon, the results were revealed.
[Congratulations to Senju Tobirama for the correct answer!]
[Senju Tobirama: Ha ha ha, I actually got it!
[Senju Hashirama: Brother, congratulations!]
[Tsunade: Uncle Tobirama, well done. The reward this time seems quite satisfactory!]
[Uchiha Madara: Hmph, just lucky!]
[Chojuro: To think I'm actually the Sixth Mizukage, I'm thrilled!]
[Ao: Congratulations, Chojuro!]
[Chojuro: This is the future! Though I can't quite grasp it yet, I'm still pumped!]
[Mei Terumi: Chojuro, you still need to toughen up. Your temperament is too soft and that won't do.]
[Chojuro: Yes, Mizukage-sama!]
At that moment, a portion of the reward emerged from Senju Tobirama.
Wow!
A cascade of golden light of merit flooded the scene, the quantity quite substantial, rivaling that of the initial batches.
"Golden Light of Merit!"
Senju Tobirama was overjoyed.
This meant he could bargain with Yasao!
[Senju Tobirama: Yasao, I can trade these golden lights of merit in return for a chance at resurrection, alright?]
[Yasao: Certainly, no problem at all.]
Shortly after.
Yasao revisited Konoha and employed the angel scepter to resurrect Senju Tobirama.
Boom!
The resurrection process swiftly concluded.
Senju Tobirama revived Konoha and returned to life.
"Hahaha, I'm finally back!"
Senju Tobirama was ecstatic.
Soon after, Senju Tobirama handed over the golden lights of merit to Yasao.
"Excellent!"
Yasao departed with the golden lights of merit.
Before long, Senju Hashirama, Tsunade, and Naruto arrived.
"Brother, you've finally been resurrected!"
Senju Hashirama approached and gave Senju Tobirama a hearty pat on the shoulder.
"Indeed, it's about time. Let's make the most of it," Senju Tobirama exclaimed with excitement.
"With the Second Granpa's return, Konoha's power has grown even stronger!" Tsunade exclaimed.
At that moment,
Shinobi from other villages couldn't help but feel a twinge of envy towards Konoha. After all, Konoha was the first Shinobi village and boasted several Six Paths level powerhouses.
With the First and Second Hokage now among their ranks again, Konoha seemed unbeatable. No matter how many times the other villages attempted to rival them, they were met with failure.
Even if all four other Ninja villages were to unite, they would still pale in comparison to Konoha!
Soon, the merit rewards list was released, with the 19th place being revealed.
However, luck didn't favor the Third Raikage this time, as his rewards were rather ordinary.
The first item was a weapon.
[Thousand-bladed Thunder Blade: A remarkably sharp weapon infused with Lightning Style Chakra, capable of unleashing devastating cutting power, able to slice through thunder and lightning with ease, cutting through steel like tofu.]
The second item was an pill.
[Lightning Pill: Enhances Lightning Style Chakra, and toughens the body.]
[Third Raikage: Lightning Pill is somewhat average. While the Thousand-bladed Thunder Blade is formidable, it seems insufficient against those Six Paths level enemies, leaving a bit of a bland taste.]
[Fourth Raikage: Father, could you give me the Thousand-bladed Thunder Blade?]
[Third Raikage: Very well, here you go. It's of little use to me anyway, and it'll only benefit you to strengthen yourself.]
And so, the Third Raikage chose the Thousand-bladed Thunder Blade and planned to exchange rewards with the Fourth Raikage later on.
Following this,
The ranking rewards were announced one by one, until they reached the 30th place, which belonged to Hong Hong.
This ranking held little of value, hardly useful even for Six Paths level beings, let alone someone at the level of an Immortal Dao. Naturally, it offered little assistance.
However, Honghong managed to catch Yasao, hoping for a stroke of luck to acquire something of even slight value.
Soon, two reward items appeared on the screen.
The first item was the Rank Three Golden Pill, which held little use for Honghong. It wouldn't aid in her cultivation progress; at best, it could only replenish Senjutsu Chakra.
The second item was the golden light of merit. Though not abundant in number, it was at least beneficial!
Without hesitation, Honghong selected the golden light of merit.
"Master, I'll give you this golden light of merit!" Honghong exclaimed, extracting the golden light and offering it to Yasao.
"No, keep the golden light of merit for yourself," Yasao replied.
"Why should I keep it?" Hong Hong inquired.
"I'll help you integrate it into your claws. It will enhance their power," Yasao explained.
"Is that possible?" Hong Hong was astonished.
"Indeed," Yasao affirmed with a nod.
Without delay, Yasao assisted Honghong in incorporating the golden lights of merit into her claws.
After a while, the fusion was complete. The power of Honghong's red insulating claws had significantly increased, accompanied by several new special effects.
As time passed, rewards were also distributed to Yaya, Rongrong, Beerus, and others, but they were all rather ordinary.
Unnoticed by many, the distribution of merit rewards concluded.
With the merit list finalized, another year would pass before the next distribution.
Yasao began his retreat, delving into his practices, continuously cultivating within the time domain to enhance his own cultivation.
At this moment, he distinctly sensed the deceleration in his cultivation speed.
"The ninja world still isn't conducive to cultivation. Unless you steer clear of its influence, progress will remain sluggish. But it's not the right time to depart. Alternatively, I could enhance my innate talent," Yasao murmured.
He had diligently pursued various methods to boost his potential and aptitude, and now, he had made noticeable progress.
However, progress solely through his efforts seemed limited.
Then, a thought struck Yasao—a treasure he had overlooked: the Seven Dragon Balls!
This artifact had remained dormant, and with his ongoing cultivation advancement, neglecting it rendered it futile for future use.
"Then let's make use of it!" Yasao resolved.
