Chapter 55: Saiki Youyu’s Strength
Konoha, Youyu’s home.
“Hah—” Youyu walked out of the bathroom while drying his hair.
He took a bottle of beer from the fridge and comfortably took a mouthful.
“My shoulders still hurt a little.” Youyu lay down on the sofa in a comfortable position, his eyes somewhat lazy.
These past few days had truly exhausted him.
Although he had cut people to his heart’s content this time, too much happiness was not necessarily a good thing.
He had cut so much his muscles were starting to ache!
Fortunately, Rin and Kurenai felt sorry for him and had just given him a full-body massage.
If it had not been too late and the two girls had not had to go home, Youyu would have wanted to pull Kurenai and Rin into drinking a cup together to celebrate.
“But the gains really were good.” A satisfied look appeared in Youyu’s eyes.
“Open attribute panel.” Youyu gave the command in his mind.
Host: Saiki Youyu.
Constitution: Jonin level.
Chakra: Jonin level.
Swordsmanship Comprehension: Sword Master realm.
Special: Asura Sword Intent, Armament Haki (skilled), Conqueror’s Haki (beginner), Observation Haki (proficient).
Sword Technique: Dark Heaven Demon God.
Overall Strength: Top Elite Jonin.
(Note: Special bonuses apply while intoxicated.) The attribute panel had undergone a world-shaking change compared to before he participated in the Chunin Exams.
Because in the Wine Berserk state, he could receive critical rewards.
Even though the people he cut were all Genin, he had still obtained generous attribute rewards!
His Constitution and Chakra had leapt straight to Jonin level.
Among them, the one who made the greatest contribution was Kisame.
That slash against Kisame had given Youyu a large amount of Constitution and Chakra attribute rewards.
By now, Youyu had also figured out the system’s reward pattern.
After getting drunk and cutting people, he would receive rewards based on the characteristics of the person he cut.
For example, Kisame possessed monster-like Constitution and Chakra, so after Youyu cut him, he obtained a large number of Chakra and Constitution rewards.
However, no matter who he cut, he would randomly receive Swordsmanship Comprehension attribute points.
This harvest had also allowed Youyu to thoroughly step into the Sword Master realm, greatly increasing his strength.
As for the sword technique he had finally swung toward Orochimaru, Dark Heaven Demon God, it was an ultimate-level sword technique he had obtained after completing ten kills, plus the critical reward.
Dark Heaven Demon God could devour the light in an area after releasing sword intent.
The stronger his swordsmanship comprehension, the wider the affected range.
The devoured light would gather together and form an astonishing slash!
In other words, this sword technique had no upper limit!
Theoretically, if his swordsmanship comprehension was strong enough, he could even devour all the light in the world!
It was hard to imagine just how terrifying a slash formed like that would be.
Youyu was extremely satisfied with this sword technique.
Although his current overall strength was only Top Elite Jonin level, once he used this sword technique, he would completely break through the limits of Jonin and touch the Kage level.
The three types of Haki rewarded from the first kill were also extremely important.
Armament Haki could greatly increase the power of Youyu’s slashes.
As for Observation Haki, Youyu had originally been a little troubled by it, because the probability of obtaining Observation Haki attribute points from cutting people was extremely low!
According to the pattern, he would have a higher chance of obtaining it by cutting someone with sensory abilities.
Fortunately, when he had nearly cut down Orochimaru at the end, the Third Hokage and Jiraiya, who were watching through the crystal ball, as well as Orochimaru himself, had all experienced intense mental fluctuations.
Perhaps because of that, his Observation Haki had directly reached proficient level!
That was equivalent to the average standard of a Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral!
At this level, in terms of perception alone, it had already surpassed the three-tomoe Sharingan!
Youyu, who knew the plot well, understood that the Third Shinobi World War was about to begin.
At that time, Konoha would eventually face the situation of fighting four great villages alone.
Forget whether the Third Hokage would order him onto the battlefield.
Even if the Third Hokage did not order him, Youyu would apply on his own.
This was a great opportunity to cut people!
A pile of attribute points was waiting for Youyu to obtain.
Besides, Youyu had not yet tasted the fine wine brewed by other hidden villages.
“I heard Sunagakure’s wine is very strong?” Youyu licked his lips.
Once the war began, he would apply to go to the Suna battlefield!
After entering the battlefield, Observation Haki would be extremely useful.
“And there’s also that room full of fine wine.
Good things like the Chunin Exams really should be held more often.” Youyu sighed emotionally, took another mouthful of cold beer, and narrowed his eyes in comfort.
… While Youyu was enjoying the gains from the great battle… Elsewhere.
Konoha, Hokage Building, inside a secret meeting room.
“Achoo!” Hiruzen Sarutobi sat in the main seat and let out a huge sneeze.
“Lord Hokage, are you all right?” A Jonin asked with concern.
“I’m fine, I’m fine.
Maybe I caught a slight chill.” Hiruzen Sarutobi waved his hand.
Just now, he seemed to have felt an ominous premonition.
“Everyone, I believe you already know the topic of this meeting.” Hiruzen Sarutobi looked around the room.
Jiraiya, Orochimaru, Minato Namikaze, Shinku Yuhi… All of his trusted Jonin had gathered.
“This is regarding Saiki Youyu.” Hiruzen Sarutobi said.
Orochimaru, who sat in the first seat on Hiruzen Sarutobi’s right, twitched at the corner of his mouth when he heard that name.
This time, he had suffered a huge loss at Youyu’s hands.
Although he had not been injured, it was humiliating!
As Konoha’s second-in-command, he had nearly been cut down by a guy who had just graduated from the Ninja Academy!
If not for the bottle of wine the old man had told him to bring, the situation might truly have been difficult to resolve.
“Orochimaru, give everyone a detailed explanation.” Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at his disciple’s unnatural expression and secretly laughed inwardly.
So Orochimaru also had times when he suffered such a huge loss.
But when Hiruzen remembered that he had never gained any advantage over Youyu either, his own face darkened.
“Everyone, please watch a few recordings first.” Orochimaru steadied himself, stood up, and spoke in a hoarse voice.
