107 Naruto Mobile Game

"Don't worry, Dad, I'm heading out."

After finishing his chat with his father, Uchiha Fugaku, Sasuke closed the private channel and stepped outside, brimming with energy.

This period of time had felt like heaven one moment and hell the next for him, as if he'd been tossing and turning nonstop.

But the channel connection to the Pure Land had genuinely been a pleasant surprise.

Members of the Uchiha clan all came to talk to him about this and that, and in an instant it felt like he'd gone back to those old days, going to and from school through the Uchiha district.

Back then, everyone he passed would greet him—uncles and aunts.

These past few days had been very fulfilling for Sasuke.

Fugaku had told him that no matter what thoughts he had about the truth behind the Uchiha clan's destruction, or whatever he planned to do next, he would support him unconditionally.

That filled Sasuke with confidence, officially taking on the hopes of his parents and the entire Uchiha clan.

Back then, he had no chance to choose and could only accept things passively. Now it was different—the opportunity was already in his hands.

From far away, Sasuke spotted the other three members of Team Seven. Speaking of which, Kakashi rarely arrived late—he, on the other hand, often did.

"Hey! Sasuke! You—"

"Kakashi, what's going on with you?"

Sasuke spoke up first, cutting Naruto off and directing the spearhead straight at Kakashi.

Sure enough, Naruto's attention was drawn away. He turned to size Kakashi up, his face full of suspicion.

Kakashi looked a bit tired, then smiled helplessly.

"Are you asking about the livestream PK thing?"

"Yeah, Kakashi-sensei. The village has been going crazy about it these past two days. You PK'd that masked man, then suddenly ended the stream. Everyone's shouting for refunds!" Naruto said.

Kakashi sighed.

"That's not important. Don't forget what we're supposed to do today."

Ninja Mobile Game had updated—the first update after the new season, with quite a bit of content.

Aside from replacing the current High-Class Recruitment S-rank [Minato Namikaze] with [Tobirama Senju], other ninja had also gone live.

"What is this?!" Naruto suddenly widened his eyes.

Sakura was right beside him. Seeing his reaction, she curiously leaned over to look at his phone screen—and instantly exploded in anger.

"You jerk, Naruto! What are you looking at?!"

Duang!

"N-no, that's not it!" Naruto clutched the swelling bump on his head, whining tearfully. "That's a ninja! Everyone can see it, right?!"

Sakura snorted, her face dark as ink.

[Haruno Sakura · Summer Swimsuit]

The first ninja with swimsuit elements had gone live, causing quite a stir.

No one had expected that this could even be made into a ninja.

Just a change of clothes… uh, the clothes really are quite white—ah no, the little swimsuit is pretty cute.

Sakura, however, was dissatisfied. She wasn't that small!

"And there's Nohara Rin? That's your companion, Kakashi, right?" Sasuke casually remarked and skipped past it, not bothering to look any further.

On the right side of the main scene was a Ninja Scroll with a red dot. This had been mentioned at the information conference, so he tapped it directly.

The next moment, the Ninja Scroll page unfolded.

[Brand-New S-Rank Ninja Await You!]

[Secret Scrolls Ninja Scroll!]

[First Issue Secret Scrolls Ninja Scroll rewards include Gengetsu Hōzuki, exclusive avatar frame, exclusive title, animated emojis, Shippuden-era Secret Scrolls, and many other rich rewards]

Gengetsu… who's that?

Sasuke didn't recognize the name. He tapped again, and now he knew who this eyebrow-less little mustache was.

[Gengetsu Hōzuki · Second Mizukage]

[Ninja Scroll Price: 198 Coupons]

"It actually costs Coupons?" Sasuke froze. "This is the first Coupons ninja, isn't it?"

That the Second Mizukage was an S-rank wasn't surprising—but what was even more shocking was that the ninja obtainable from this scroll weren't limited to just him.

[First Issue Ninja Scroll Special Purchase:]

[Players who purchase the Ninja Scroll during the first week can directly receive eliminated High-Class Recruitment—S-rank Uchiha Itachi · Susanoo, A-rank Uchiha Shisui!!]

Hiss!

Sasuke couldn't help but suck in a sharp breath.

It wasn't because the Ninja Scroll was so generous, directly gifting ninja—but because this move had completely put him in a bind.

He had sworn never to play Akatsuki ninja. Now he had to hesitate over whether to buy it or not.

"What does 'eliminated High-Class Recruitment' mean?" Sakura asked.

"From the explanation, it seems they were originally planned as High-Class Recruitment, but for certain reasons were abandoned—special ninja."

(In plain terms: no schedule.)

After saying that, Kakashi casually bought the Ninja Scroll.

Although Coupons were precious, he knew very well that ninja usable for ranking battles were just as precious.

Besides, he planned to collect every ninja. No matter what Ninja Mobile Game released—even if it was a pile of crap—he wouldn't miss it.

As for why—hehehe...

"Oh? You can't get them immediately? You still need to do a month of missions." Kakashi pondered.

[Uchiha Itachi · Susanoo] and [Uchiha Shisui] could be claimed right away, but [Gengetsu Hōzuki · Second Mizukage] could not.

Of course, anything produced by the Kuroda system definitely wouldn't be as scammy as Cube Internet Café.

Are you still troubled because you bought the Ninja Scroll but can't draw an experience card to try the ninja? Are you still cursing because you have to grind out a full four months of bullshit missions? Are you still collapsing because after waiting four months, you can only play a ninja past their peak?

Now, an opportunity lies right before you.

Travel through the ninja world! Experience a brand-new version of Ninja Mobile Game! Loaded with benefits! Formidable opponents!

So, what is your choice?

[Yes] or [Yes]

"Kakashi-sensei is already playing? So fast!" Naruto suddenly exclaimed.

As expected of Kakashi—his hand speed was incredible. He was already operating the ninja in the practice field.

"After buying the Ninja Scroll, even though you can't get the ninja immediately, you can receive a three-day experience card every week." Kakashi's words counted as an explanation.

He thought this was pretty good—otherwise, spending Coupons and still not being able to play would be unreasonable.

The little mustache wasn't complicated. Simply put: first skill shoots water guns, second skill releases clones, ultimate summons a clam, and the first few basic attacks are ranged.

Worth mentioning—this was the mature version of the little mustache, not the initial version, but one optimized by Cube Internet Café.

Kakashi was last season's third-place rank finisher on this server—a top-tier player in the ninja world. The moment he got his hands on it, he felt something was off.

"This basic attack is insanely strong." Kakashi looked shocked.

There had been ranged basic attacks before, but in terms of performance, compared to the little mustache, it was like heaven and earth.

As everyone knows, Ninja Mobile Game is a fair competitive game. The substitution distance differs between S-rank, A-rank, and other tiers of ninja.

Generally, substitutions place you behind the opponent.

At the extreme substitution distance of S-rank ninja, A-rank ninja can only substitute in place.

Kakashi immediately realized that the little mustache's basic attack combined with skills could pull the opponent's substitution, forcing them—regardless of ninja tier—to substitute in place.

This was an unimaginably huge advantage.

He decided he'd go find the Third Hokage later and tell him that it would be best for all Konoha players to buy the Ninja Scroll.

For a ninja this broken, hesitating instead of grabbing it and ranking up would be idiotic!

The little mustache's first skill, Water Iron Cannon Technique · Barrage, was performed by firing dense water bullets alternately from the left and right hands.

It was multi-hit—super multi-hit!

"Full hit is about 600,000 damage?" Kakashi looked at the damage statistics showing 21 hits, then used the skill again to get familiar with it.

This time, just as he was about to use the skill, he had a sudden idea and rapidly shook the joystick.

After finishing the attack, all four members of Team Seven—including Kakashi—fell silent at the same time.

29 hits! 810,000 damage!

Kakashi took a deep breath and released the first skill again. This time, he directly unleashed hand speed that ranked among the very best in the entire ninja world.

Ninja Mobile Game was different from Kuroda's previous life—this was a ninja-world exclusive version, meaning the theoretical hand-speed ceiling was even higher.

In the end, Kakashi stared at the nearly one million damage dealt by a single skill and fell into deep thought.

Second Mizukage-sama—terrifying, indeed!
