Chapter 83: Sasuke's Dance

As expected.

Losing your composure already?

The more eager they are to kill me, the more it proves the forbidden nature of the research data I hold, and that they cannot bear the consequences of it being made public.

Sasuke narrowed his eyes.

A scarlet glow lit up in his pupils, and the pitch-black tomoe spun at extreme speed, providing him with the power to observe the enemy's movements clearly.

The five Root members did not rashly close in; Sasuke Uchiha had already displayed enough power to make them cautious.

Whoosh!

With perfect coordination, they reached into their Ninja Tool Pouches, and immediately, countless shuriken flew out.

A crisp sound of metal clashing.

Sasuke swung his long sword into a watertight defense, and sparks refracted as the shuriken collided with the blade, illuminating his cold expression.

Wind Style: Vacuum Sphere.

The Root ninja in the very center formed hand seals, chakra gathered in his throat, and his mouth suddenly bulged.

Volleys of wind pressure bullets that pierced the air were continuously spat out.

This ninja was extremely experienced and knew exactly when to use ninjutsu.

They were blocking the exit of the laboratory, and by releasing this highly penetrative Wind Style ninjutsu inside, the opponent had no way to dodge in the narrow corridor.

However,

Sasuke just lowered his body slightly, and the chaotic black flames burning all over his body solidified, turning into pitch-black armor that covered him, even obscuring his face.

【Black Flame Cursed Armor (Green) Lv. 5】: Releases the power of black flames, condensing into impenetrable black flame armor, Defense +30, deals 5 Fire Attribute Damage per second to targets within a 2-meter radius.

The menacing wind pressure bullets collided with the armor condensed from black flames and vanished without even making a sound.

"How is that possible?"

The Root ninja beside him widened his eyes.

Vacuum Sphere was Danzou's signature ninjutsu, possessing the effects of wind-attribute chakra, easily capable of piercing solid iron armor; how could it be blocked by the opponent's strange defensive ninjutsu?

Water Style: Exploding Water Colliding Wave!

Another Root ninja opened his mouth wide and spat out a massive amount of water containing chakra, intending to flood the entire laboratory.

Water overcomes fire.

He did not believe Sasuke Uchiha's defensive ninjutsu could overcome elemental suppression.

Especially since the files clearly stated that the opponent was just a Genin who hadn't even been out of the Ninja Academy for two years; even if recruited by the Weird Samsara Game, could he really withstand the combined efforts of them, the Elite Root members?

The surging water instantly flooded the narrow passage, turning the entire laboratory into an underground water cellar.

Nearby, one ninja placed a hand on his waist, pushed with his thumb, and after drawing his long sword, slashed at the rock at the entrance of the laboratory.

Boom.

The shattered rock completely blocked the exit.

"Is he dead?"

The Root ninjas looked at each other; buried underground, unless one was a Rock Ninja skilled in Earth Style, even a Jonin would be unable to escape and would be suffocated to death.

As everyone knew, the Uchiha Clan was skilled in Fire Style and possessed no secret Earth Style techniques like the Rock Ninja.

"What a pity, if we could have captured him alive, we could have obtained a pair of brand-new Sharingan for Danzou."

The Root ninjas waited quietly, intending to begin cleaning up the battlefield once they were certain Sasuke was completely dead.

All data related to the laboratory and human experimentation would be thoroughly destroyed.

Just then,

A muffled sound suddenly came from underground.

Bang, bang, bang.

Explosive, scorching black flames burst directly through the thick ground, and Sasuke, clad in black armor, gripped his sword with both hands and slashed down, sending a black flame sword aura flying out.

"Ah, my hand!"

A Root ninja failed to dodge in time and had his wrist severed by the black flame sword aura, the black flames continuing to burn and spread along the wound.

His companion nearby saw this, his gaze indifferent, and before the black flames could spread further, he drew a kunai and chopped off the man's arm.

A flicker of pity flashed in the eyes of the companion who should have been devoid of emotion.

Losing a vital right hand meant being unable to form hand seals; a damaged tool would be disposed of by Danzou.

"How is it possible, not even a single injury?"

The Root ninja who had released the Water Style could not believe it.

After Sasuke, who had been buried, rushed out from underground, there wasn't even a scratch on him; he was completely unscathed.

"Stupid."

Sasuke's gaze was calm, but the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

According to the Samsara Game's strength assessment,

The average four-dimensional attributes of a typical Genin are around 10 points, while a Chunin can reach an average of 20 points.

The Root ninjas before him felt like they had four-dimensional attributes of about 30 points, reaching the initial level of a Jonin.

And as for himself, every level-up in the game grants 2 free attribute points, and after changing his class to Cursed Swordsman, he gains a fixed increase of 2 points in Strength, 3 in Agility, and 3 in Spirit per level-up.

These Reward Points can not only Reinforce the game body but can also be synchronized to the physical body in reality!

It's just that to add points in reality, one needs to consume Reward Points to purchase a 【Reality Scroll】.

Without using a Reality Scroll, the attribute correlation between the game shell and the real body is only ten percent.

After consuming a Reality Scroll, one can convert attribute points into 【Reality Attribute Points】 to Reinforce the real shell by one hundred percent.

The annoying part is,

The minimum selling price for each 【Reality Scroll】 is two hundred Reward Points, and each time it can only convert one point of an attribute into a real attribute.

Furthermore, according to the attribute strength of the player's physical body in reality, the higher the attribute, the more expensive the 【Reality Scroll】 required to convert it.

A large portion of the Reward Points Sasuke earns from hunting Pollution Monsters needs to be spent on Reality Scrolls.

But the effect it brings is also genuinely powerful.

After spending a massive amount of Reward Points,

Sasuke's body has not even fully developed to its peak state, yet he already possesses the strength of a Jonin just after graduating from the Ninja Academy.

And he is not the kind of ordinary Jonin with obvious shortcomings.

In the ninja world, most ninja are specialized; judging by the four-dimensional attributes of the Samsara Game, only one attribute breaks through the 30-point mark to reach the Jonin level, while the remaining attributes do not meet the standard at all.

Being able to have two attributes break through 30 points is considered a relatively capable existence among Jonin.

But for himself, a full three attributes have broken through 30 points.

These Root ninja, although numerous, are not even in his eyes.

Not to mention the bonus effects from his equipment.

"Five minutes to end the battle."

After Sasuke says this with Haki, he kicks off the ground with his toes, and his figure has already vanished from where he stood.

Clang.

Fragments from the metal impact are ignited by high heat, bursting into dazzling black sparks.

The Root ninja who previously smashed the rock to block the door grips his blade with both hands, his arms trembling as he blocks the longsword Sasuke brought down.

The blade is wrapped in Sharp chakra, resembling a wind blade.

In the past, a single strike would have cut through any of the enemy's metal weapons.

But the longsword gripped tightly in Sasuke's hand still radiates a chilling gleam, while his own Blade has developed fine notches instead.

"This is a weapon I spent a fortune to have crafted by an artisan from Iron Country, how could it..."

The Root ninja resists with difficulty, his arms continuously sinking.

Until the Blade in his hand is pressed down onto his shoulder blade, the heavy weight feeling as if it might crush his bones, making him feel an urge to throw it away.

Just two more seconds of holding on will do.

From the corner of his eye, he has already glimpsed his companion forming hand seals.

Secret Technique: Shadow Possession Jutsu.

The Root ninja who had not yet officially made a move suddenly has a pitch-black shadow spring from the soles of his feet, which, aided by the moonlight, touches the soles of Sasuke's feet at extreme speed.

Success!
