Bab 21: Trading Market
Tower of reincarnation.
Despite its name containing the word "tower," this place does not have a physical structure consisting of floors or levels as one might imagine. Instead, the Tower of Reincarnation is a vast expanse divided into three main areas: the Outer Circle, the Inner Circle, and the Center.
The Outer Circle is designated for reincarnators ranked F to D. In the middle of the Outer Circle, not far from the teleportation circle, there is a bustling marketplace that serves as the center of economic activity. Here, reincarnators can buy and sell items they have obtained from the dungeon worlds. The marketplace is a dynamic place, where prices can change quickly depending on supply and demand. To open a shop in this market, a reincarnator only needs to pay 500 points. With this capital, they can market their goods and strive to make a profit.
Meanwhile, the Inner Circle is for reincarnators ranked C to A. To enter the Inner Circle, a reincarnator from the Outer Circle must achieve a life level of C.
The Center is the most elite area in the Tower of Reincarnation, where only reincarnators ranked S and above are allowed to enter. This is where the strongest reincarnators gather. To enter the Center, a reincarnator from the Inner Circle must reach rank S, an achievement that is challenging and requires considerable dedication and effort.
Back in the marketplace, Haru has just re-entered the Tower of Reincarnation after spending time with Sora. This is his first time in the marketplace, and of course, he has researched the situation beforehand. The atmosphere in the market is very lively, with reincarnators bargaining for the items they desire. In the marketplace, reincarnators can choose to conceal their identities by blurring their faces and altering their voices or display them openly. Haru observes his surroundings.
Haru has a clear goal: he wants to buy a Chakra purification scroll and some ninjutsu. Even though he possesses a strong Senju lineage (Mokuton), he knows that without proper Chakra purification methods and ninjutsu, he cannot maximize his abilities. Besides purchasing ninjutsu, he also intends to sell his ancestral demon lineage, Kibutsuji Muzan. He is confident it will sell for a high price considering its ability to create demon armies.
After exploring the market to familiarize himself with the environment, Haru comes to the busiest area and opens a shop. He pays 500 points and registers his store. He lists the items he will sell, including the ancestral demon lineage. Haru sets the initial price at 5,000 points, even though he knows that this price seems low. He is confident that in no time, the item will become sought after by other reincarnators, and the price will soar.
As Haru arranges his merchandise and writes descriptions for each item, a group of reincarnators gathers around him.
**[Item Name: Ancestral Demon Lineage.
Rank: Blue
Description: This lineage allows the user to have high-speed regeneration, Blood Demon Arts, and create demons just by injecting their blood.
Note: Has a weakness to sunlight.
Price: 5,000 reincarnation points or traded for several rare ninjutsu (preferred)]**
"Hey, are you serious? A lineage that can create demon armies just by injecting their blood!!" exclaimed one reincarnator.
"Really?" Another reincarnator who heard this immediately joined the crowd.
"Unfortunately, it has such a huge weakness; if not, this lineage should at least be gold-ranked," a reincarnator sighed in regret.
"Come on, don't daydream. No way a gold-ranked item would appear in the Outer Circle. Even if there were, no fool would sell it," another reincarnator scoffed.
"Friend, I'll buy that lineage for 6,000 reincarnation points," one reincarnator offered.
"6,200."
"6,500."
"Ninjutsu Suiton: Suiryudan no Jutsu."
"Healing Magic."
Bids continued to heat up.
...
**Hungry Wolf Guild Headquarters.**
"Leader, there's news of a rare lineage appearing in the Outer Circle," a member of the Hungry Wolf guild entered the leader's room.
Lovo, the guild leader, looked up and stared at the informer.
"Specify."
"The lineage is the Ancestral Demon Lineage; by combining it, someone can gain high-speed regenerative abilities that are almost impossible to kill, and this lineage can also create demon armies just by injecting their blood," the member explained.
"It's impossible for that lineage to only be blue-ranked. There must be a significant drawback, right?" Lovo wisely analyzed.
"As expected from the leader; there is a weakness—it will perish if exposed to sunlight," the member praised before explaining the weakness.
"Hmm... While it's not too strong, the ability to create demons will be very useful in the dungeon world. With that, we can use locals as cannon fodder," Lovo pondered.
"Go get that lineage by any means necessary," he commanded.
...
"9,000."
"10,000."
The bidding at Haru's stall continued and showed no signs of slowing down.
"A Chakra extraction scroll and 3 Mokuton ninjutsu."
A loud voice drew everyone's attention. Not because the bid was high, but because it was too low.
"Is he an idiot? Even though Mokuton ninjutsu is rare and powerful, no one can actually practice it," said one reincarnator.
"That's right; I heard that even in the Naruto dungeon, only the first Hokage could do it."
"Shh… be quiet, or you'll offend Hungry Wolf," a reincarnator who recognized the newcomer quickly admonished his friend.
"Hungry Wolf? Sigh… it seems that lineage will fall into their hands."
Haru also heard their discussion. He was surprised that Mokuton ninjutsu would be so cheap, which excited him even more, as he could gain a greater profit.
"Friend, please don't joke; how can a rare lineage be bought for some trash?" Haru said angrily.
"Do you know who I am?" the reincarnator replied.
"Oh? Aren't you just a member of Hungry Wolf? So what? If you have the ability, come take it," Haru taunted, showing no fear of Hungry Wolf. Right now, he was hiding his identity, so he didn't need to worry about offending them; they didn't know who he was.
"Good... very good... you dare provoke Hungry Wolf. Don't expect to escape just by hiding your identity."
The man said, tossing several ninjutsu scrolls.
"Is that enough?" he asked angrily.
Haru looked at the contents of the scrolls and found that they were A-rank Raiton and Fuuton ninjutsu, Raiton: Juurokucuu Shibari and Fuuton: Shinkurenpa.
Seeing the additional ninjutsu in his hands, Haru's eyes lit up.
"Agreed," he said.
"Hmm... pray that you don't encounter Hungry Wolf in the dungeon, kid," the man snorted coldly and turned away.
'I didn't expect to get such a great harvest today. Time to go back and train,' Haru muttered, turning and heading to the training area.
