Chapter 49: Chapter 49 : Rimuru?
On the screen, a radiant figure sat cross-legged, bathed in a golden light.
Below him, an introduction materialized.
[Sun Wukong: The Golden Monkey King, a master of transformation, proficient in the art of the staff, lightning-fast, possesses special penetrating eyes, comprehends all illusions and transformation techniques, extraordinary strength, and is skilled in Senjutsu!]
[Nine Tails: So, you're a monkey too, Four Tails. Turns out he's your relative!]
[Four Tails: Hehe, those three fox demons are your relatives!]
[Kakashi: This Monkey King must be a Monkey Summoning Beast. Where in the ninja world can you find such a potent Monkey Summoning Beast?]
[Third Hokage: Enma, is this your family's ancestor?]
[Enma: Sarutobi, don't you know the strength of my family? I am the strongest of my generation; there's no room for ancestors!]
[Third Hokage: Enma, how about inviting him to become an honorary ancestor and supporting us from behind?]
[Enma: ...]
[Third Tsuchikage: Sarutobi Hiruzen, that's a brilliant idea. This could be a powerful supporter for Konoha.]
[Orochimaru: Sun Wukong has those fiery eyes; it seems like another kind of ocular jutsu or bloodline limit, akin to Sharingan. It specializes in dispelling illusions and could potentially counter Sharingan effectively!]
Orochimaru was particularly intrigued by the fiery eyes. His fear of Sharingan had driven his desire to possess it, but now, a new ocular technique emerged that could challenge it.
Obtaining those fiery eyes could mean he'd no longer be vulnerable to Uchiha Itachi.
Uchiha Madara also noticed the fiery eyes.
"A specialized ocular technique for dispelling illusions. If I ever face those eyes, it might be a handicap. Fortunately, I possess the Rinnegan. Once I revive, I will reclaim my Rinnegan and have no fear of these fiery eyes," he thought to himself.
However, the opponent's strength was daunting, and he couldn't decipher it entirely. Perhaps the true test would come after completing his plan, becoming the Ten Tails Jinchūriki, and ascending to the level of the Six Paths.
The live broadcast room buzzed with discussions about these unique eyes.
[Fourth Raikage: Will Sun Wukong's fiery eyes counter the Kotoamatsukami?]
[Terumi Mei: It's very possible. Kotoamatsukami may also be an illusion, and the fiery eyes specialize in dispelling illusions. Given the opponent's strength, Uchiha Shisui's Kotoamatsukami might be ineffective.]
[Danzo: Humph, my Kotoamatsukami is invincible, and I won't accept any objections!]
[Uchiha Shisui: That's my Kotoamatsukami!]
Members of the Uchiha clan were naturally obsessed with ocular jutsu.
As for Monkey King's transformation technique, it went largely unnoticed.
Despite its incredible power, the presence of the Transformation Technique in the ninja world had diminished the appreciation for such abilities.
...
"This monkey is ranked fifth? He's always been such a show-off; I thought he'd make it to the top three!" Rongrong muttered.
"This monkey is the oldest Summoning Beast that has been with the master. It started as an ordinary monkey. If it weren't for the master's hard work, it wouldn't have grown so powerful," Yaya explained.
"Isn't that what we're doing? We're here to serve the master!" Rongrong continued, moving closer to Yasao.
"Master, we're here to serve you too!" Honghong chimed in, tapping one of Yasao's legs.
Yasao lay there, enjoying their attention comfortably. Cultivating them had proven to be an excellent decision. Although it was initially challenging, they had grown remarkably.
"Master, I..." Kumoko started speaking but quickly realized that her metallic spider legs weren't suitable for a massage, making her anxious. "I must transform soon and give master a shoulder massage!" she vowed.
Garaga, standing nearby, envied their closeness to the master. He, on the other hand, felt that the master didn't favor him much, only assigning him rough tasks. Nevertheless, he was content.
"Hey, if only I had been with the master from the beginning. I could have been as strong as them!" Garaga thought to himself but dared not say it aloud, lest he face their wrath.
He didn't believe he could challenge them in his current Flood dragon form. The pet list ranking spoke for itself.
...
In a remote corner of the ninja world, Sun Wukong, disguised as an ordinary person, carried out tasks for his master while keeping an eye on the ranking.
"I'm only fifth? Those four ahead of me must be really powerful," Sun Wukong pondered.
However, he knew he didn't have time for personal challenges. Completing the master's task took priority, and only then could he seek out those four formidable opponents.
Soon, the fourth-place ranking was revealed.
[Fourth Place in the Pet List: Rimuru (Slime), master: Yasao]
This ranking surprised many. Slimes, generally regarded as weak and insignificant beasts in the ninja world, were not typically considered Summoning Beasts or pets. They were easily bullied by ordinary people.
[Fourth Raikage: Is that the slime I'm thinking of?]
[Kakashi: It can't be that type of slime. Wait for the screen to show its true form.]
[Naruto: It can't be a slime. I stepped on several slimes with one foot last time. How can such a beast rank fourth on the pet list?]
[Terumi Mei: Slimes are slimy; I don't like them!]
[Tsunade: Let's see a picture of this cute slime.]
As the audience watched, a picture of a slime appeared in the live broadcast room, looking just like any other slime.
[Terumi Mei: Is this really the slime? This feels like a reality-defying concept. Can such beasts become so powerful?]
[Fourth Hokage: The key is that its master is Yasao. I feel that it's not Yasao who had found these powerful Summoning Beasts; it's the other way around. These Summoning Beasts have been favoured by Yasao, making them become so powerful.]
[White Snake Sage: I can't believe one person could cultivate so many powerful Summoning Beasts of different types. Perhaps these Summoning Beasts were hidden too well, and Yasao has a unique ability to find them.]
[Naruto: Maybe Yasao is just that strong!]
The introduction of Rimuru appeared on the screen, and everyone gasped as they read it. They now realized the true extent of this slime's power, unlike any other ordinary slime.
It's like they are completely different species.
