Chapter 587 Hinata took Sakura's script

Of course, the possibility that Naruto will have the Nine-Tails taken away by Nagato is just the worst-case scenario.

Lu Li was still willing to believe that Nagato would keep his promise to him.

Thinking of this, Lu Li first distracted himself and checked his tasks in this world.

He previously had a special hidden mission called 'Nagato's Ideal', and the progress has now been inherited.

As long as he helps Nagato realize his ideal, creates the Ten-Tails to intimidate the ninja world, and brings the world into an era of peace, he will be able to obtain the Six Paths of Samsara after Nagato's death.

What's weird is that as soon as he took a look at the mission, he found that his mission had failed.

He did inherit the progress, but the mission failed, which confused Lu Li.

He thought about it carefully and suddenly realized that there were two possibilities for mission failure. According to the mission description, one of the failure situations was that it was impossible for him to gather all the tailed beasts to summon the Ten Tails and achieve world nuclear peace.

Judging from what Orochimaru just said, since Nagato has already gathered all eight and Naruto is still here, from this perspective, it is impossible to directly judge him as having failed the mission.

There is only one possibility that can directly confirm that this mission has failed, and that is that Nagato is dead.

After all, the prerequisite for the mission was to complete these tasks while Nagato was alive, and the verbal agreement Nagato gave him was that he would become the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki, and after he died, he would pass the Rinnegan to Lu Li.

If Nagato is killed before he can do anything big, the mission will naturally fail.

After discovering that the mission had failed, Lu Li felt a little gloomy. After all, he had some friendship with Nagato, and he also agreed with Nagato's ideals, believing that in the environment of the ninja world, "nuclear deterrence" was indeed a good way to achieve peace.

There was still a certain comradeship between them, but when he came this time he found that Nagato was dead, maybe he had just passed away a few days ago. This naturally made Lu Li depressed and even a little angry.

It goes without saying that there must be a mastermind behind the scenes who persuaded Naruto to defect and killed Nagato.

In today's ninja world, the only people who can kill Nagato without causing any waves are the explorers operating in the mission world.

No matter who did it, killed his friend and ruined his mission, he would make the other party pay the price.

Lu Li calmed down a little and continued to check his other tasks.

[Pioneer Mission: Break Through the World]

Mission content: Collect the fragments of the world's core, and penetrate this world while ensuring that the world's core has a purity of more than 90%.

The targets who possess high-purity fragments of the world core include Uzumaki Naruto, Uchiha Sasuke, Uchiha Madara, Senju Hashirama, Ōtsutsuki Kaguya, and Ōtsutsuki Toneri.

The World Core Extractor has been distributed to the Pioneer storage space. If the target cooperates, you can use the extractor to extract it. In addition, you can also obtain it by killing.

No matter how the World Core is obtained, the target's strength must reach the peak it can originally reach. If it is extracted or killed without peak strength, only fragments of the World Core of low purity can be obtained.

Mission Difficulty: Difficult ~ Nightmare
Mission Reward: Diamond Pioneer Medal*2, Bloodline Network. Samsara Sharingan

Failure penalty: None
[Pioneer Mission: Hunting]

Mission content: Hunt down violator No. 419823. The hunting radar will be activated when the target is within kilometers of the Pioneer. The target has special abilities. Pioneers are requested to deal with it as soon as possible after the hunting radar is activated, otherwise there will be unpredictable risks.

Mission difficulty: Easy ~ Must die
Mission Reward: Diamond Pioneer Medal*1
Failure penalty: None
Because it is a large derivative world, and Lu Li has strong personal strength, this time the space did not give him a long-winded main quest that is linked together.

The main theme is still free exploration, but the pioneer mission is a mandatory requirement for him to break through this world.

The rewards are also generous. Although Lu Li’s special hidden mission failed, he still has the opportunity to obtain a better eye technique bloodline, which is also the ultimate ability of this world, the bloodline network.

The other hunting mission was related to a violator that he hadn't encountered for a long time. According to the mission description, the violator should have some special ability that could develop very rapidly, and the longer it was delayed, the more disadvantageous it would be.

So Lu Li planned to sweep the continent first, find the offender and kill him, and then slowly conquer the world.

"I have a general understanding of the situation. Is this the Land of Fields?"

Lu Li began to confirm his location. This time the space was too inconsiderate. Neither the time nor the specific location was marked for him. It might also be because they thought that he had been here once and there was someone in front of him who could explain it, so they did not give him enough information.

"My experimental base in Tian No Kuni was destroyed a few days ago. This is a temporary base outside of Konoha."

Orochimaru explained, his eyes grim as he spoke of this matter, "The world is indeed not peaceful. Some people actually dared to attack my village in broad daylight."

"How strong are the attackers?"

Lu Li inquired, and he could probably guess that this was done by an explorer, and he probably treated Orochimaru as a copy. After all, Orochimaru had a lot of good things in his hands, which could be exchanged for money if they were authenticated.

"Very strong. Even though I'm not very proficient in using the Kaleidoscope, I still couldn't do anything to them. In the end, I had to use the Divine Power Space to escape."

Orochimaru said with a serious expression.

"Damn it, what a bunch of arrogant guys! If I were here, I would definitely not let them have it easy!"

Sasuke's voice was filled with anger. As Orochimaru's disciple, he obviously felt that this was quite humiliating.

If Naruto's matter hadn't distracted his mind, he would have gone to investigate the whereabouts of that group of people.

"It's a good thing you're not here."

Lu Li looked at Sasuke and complained silently. After all, the current Sasuke is not much stronger than Orochimaru, even after awakening the Mangekyō.

Putting aside other things about Obito, his Sharingan ability is quite tricky. After years of research, Orochimaru has basically been able to use it without any side effects, but its spatial ability is quite difficult to deal with.

When Lu Li killed Obito, he relied on a mindless storm attack and slashed at the opponent for a long time before he killed him.

In fact, if Obito chose to stay in the Kamui Space and not come out, even Lu Li, who is now extremely powerful, would be unable to do anything to him, and would not be able to actively locate and enter a different space.

"I……"

Sasuke was not convinced when he heard this. Normally, he acted like a cool and handsome guy in front of other people, and he adhered to the principle of talking less and showing off with actions more.

Over the years, even though he still has some respect for his teacher Orochimaru in his heart, he has become more and more rebellious on the surface.

But when facing this natural disaster who looked like an old man who was about to die, he subconsciously restrained himself and did not dare to be too presumptuous.

He didn't know if it was because he was still affected by the shock he had felt when he saw Lu Li break through Konoha in his childhood. But he just couldn't pretend in front of this natural disaster senior, as if there was a voice in his head reminding him.

"I roughly understand the situation. Senior Orochimaru, you should stay in Konoha and do your research. I'll go out for a walk."

Lu Li stood up from the wheelchair and stretched his body under Orochimaru's surprised gaze.

“It’s a medical miracle!”

Orochimaru exclaimed. As far as he could remember, he had just brought Lu Li back to the base last night. Judging from Lu Li's vital signs at the time, he felt that even if he could wake up, he would most likely have to live in a wheelchair for the rest of his life.

But after taking some nutrient solution, Lu Li was able to stand up and even walk on his own.

"Senior Tianzai, what about us?"

Sasuke was also somewhat surprised to see Lu Li able to stand up, mainly because he didn't want to move around with a disabled old man.

He heard that Orochimaru had found Zai, but Zai was already exhausted and became a useless man. He did not count on Zai's fighting power. He just wanted Zai, Naruto's first "life mentor", to enlighten and advise Naruto.

Now that he saw that Lu Li could still move on his own, he felt relieved. This way, he wouldn't have to carry an old man on his back while traveling in such an uncool manner.

"Let's go find Naruto."

Lu Li didn’t know what Sasuke was thinking, otherwise he would definitely teach him a lesson.

Lu Li’s idea is very simple. To conquer the world, one needs a high-purity world core, which is similar to the world of pirates.

Is it difficult to kill Naruto and Sasuke? For people at this stage, let alone a sixth-level explorer, a fifth-level explorer can easily kill these two boys.

The problem is that this is not the peak of Naruto and Sasuke's career. If they are killed now, they won't be able to obtain the World Core of sufficient purity, and they won't be able to break through the world.

However, due to the upper limit of the entry level of this world, it is quite difficult for a level 55 explorer with an average comprehensive attribute of 135 points to kill the perfect forms of Naruto, Sasuke, and Kaguya.

These problems were nothing to Lu Li. He only needed to consider how to make Naruto and Sasuke become complete forms as soon as possible, and how to get Kaguya out.

Now that Naruto has defected, it may also be related to the manipulation of explorers. Lu Li needs to find Naruto as soon as possible to prevent some blind explorers from killing Naruto now, otherwise he will not be able to break through the world.

"Senior, how is your health?"

Sasuke's tone was slightly worried, he didn't want Lu Li to die halfway through the journey.

Orochimaru felt a little uncomfortable watching this scene. Even though he was a person who taught students in accordance with their aptitude and never cared whether his students were respectful to him or not, Sasuke's arrogant character was also nurtured by him.

But he saw that Sasuke used honorifics to address Lu Li, but when he grew up, he always called him "Orochimaru", which made him feel a little awkward.

"It's okay, I'm not going to die yet."

Lu Li stretched his old body and walked a few meters to show that he was fine.

But to Sasuke and Orochimaru, the scene seemed like Lu Li was just holding on, trying to maintain the dignity of a strong stranger.

The two of them "saw through it but didn't say it out loud". Anyway, Sasuke didn't expect Lu Li to suppress Naruto with his fighting power. It's better to say that now that the wind has stopped and the rain has cleared, he feels that his current strength is no worse than when Lu Li attacked Konoha.

With his strength, he couldn't even beat Naruto, let alone Lu Li who is now on his deathbed.

In Sasuke's opinion, Lu Li's role is mainly to "talk nonsense"

"Senior, let's go. If you feel tired on the way, be sure to tell me."

Orochimaru's eyes widened in shock at Sasuke's thoughtfulness. Is this something Sasuke could say?
Did the natural disaster leave too deep an impression on the child, or did Sasuke break his back for Naruto?
Lu Li didn't notice anything wrong, he just nodded and walked out with Sasuke.

In fact, compared to the original work, Sasuke's aggressive character has indeed been restrained a bit, mainly because he had a happier childhood and was surrounded by geniuses, so his arrogance was suppressed.

After walking out of this temporary base, Lu Li saw that there were other people waiting outside, some young ninjas from Konoha.

I don't know if it was the convergence of the world line that was at work, but after Sasuke and Naruto returned to Konoha, they still had some interactions with the original Twelve Ninjas of Konoha. However, because he and Naruto were too strong, they didn't get too close.

After all, when they returned to Konoha, these people had just graduated not long ago, and until now, only Shikamaru became a Jonin with his outstanding tactical mind, while the others were still Chunin.

"Sasuke-kun, who is this old man?"

As soon as Lu Li and Sasuke walked out of the door, a girl with long black hair and white eyes couldn't wait to come forward, her tone full of anxiety and expectation.

This girl is naturally Hinata Hyuga. The matchmaker seems to be a red string pulled by steel bars. Even if Naruto's fate changes, this red string still ties them together.

However, this time Hinata accidentally got hold of Sakura's script, and her beloved boy defected. She tried her best but failed to get him back. She could only ask Sasuke, who has a similar strength to Naruto and is Naruto's best friend, to help her bring Naruto back.

Sasuke was defeated in the battle at the Valley of the End. Hinata was disappointed and even desperate, and she wanted to leave the village herself to chase Naruto.

But at this moment, Sasuke said that he had received news that a senior who might be able to persuade Naruto had appeared, so he should go and ask, and maybe he could get help.

"Act of God."

When facing people of the same age, Sasuke puts on his cocky face, but he still attracts girls like Ino to become crazy about him.

There's no way around it, he's handsome, charming, and powerful, and he's the son of the Hokage, so anyone who sees him would be confused.

"Natural disaster!?"

The boys and girls were surprised to hear Sasuke's words. Except for Hinata, it was obviously the first time for them to see Lu Li in person, but they were all very familiar with the name of the natural disaster.

Under the brainwashing propaganda of the new Hokage, the image of a lone brave man who is not afraid of abuse and is determined to make Konoha a better place has been deeply imprinted in their minds.

However, even Hinata, who had seen Lu Li through the window during the battle of Konoha, could not recognize the current Lu Li.

"Is it really a natural disaster? But..."

Hinata was surprised and confused, "From my impression, Senior Calamity should not be this old now, right?"

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Lu Li suspiciously, wondering how could such a frail-looking old man be the scourge that terrorized the ninja world back then?
