Multiverse Skill System

Damn, when did the Three-Tailed Fox become so amazing? It uses this ultimate move so skillfully.

If there's no way to dodge it, then there aren't many left. Yi Shuihan swung his fist to meet the attack, and with one punch, several nearby palms were shattered and turned into water, falling down.

"If one punch isn't enough, then let's have a few more."

"Boom boom boom"

Yi Shuihan swung his fists repeatedly as if he were practicing punching, throwing dozens of punches in a short moment.

"Wow!"

Dozens of huge holes appeared in the sky, and the giant hands turned into water, falling down like waterfalls, which was quite spectacular.

"So...so strong."

The ninjas stared blankly at the strange phenomenon in the sky. Yi Shuihan had actually neutralized the attack in that way, and his powerful image left a deep impression on everyone.

The thought that the Three-Tails might lose, which had never crossed my mind before, took root and sprouted for the first time.

"Don't think you're safe just because you're wearing a turtle shell. Now it's my turn to perform."

Yi Shuihan's eyes narrowed slightly, and he threw another punch, but this time the target was the three-tailed creature below, or more precisely, its shell.

"What an idiot! You know perfectly well that my defenses are the strongest here, yet you still insist on attacking. Let's see what you do after you're exhausted."

Sanwei didn't make any unnecessary movements; it simply waited quietly for Yi Shuihan's attack to end.

Although it felt pain in its back, it didn't care. It could withstand hundreds or thousands of punches without any problem.

However, is Yi Shuihan the kind of person who would do unnecessary things? Of course not. If Sanwei were to sense things more carefully, it would discover that the source of each pain was the same place.

Like water dripping on a stone, countless punches struck the same point on the tortoise shell. Originally, the tortoise shell, which could not be broken by such force, gradually developed a white spot. Then the white spot spread downwards, and after a moment, a point of penetration appeared.

A thousand-mile dike can be destroyed by an ant hole. Under Yi Shuihan's relentless bombardment, cracks finally appeared and spread at a speed that Sanwei could never have imagined.

At a certain moment, when the Three-Tails realized it, it was too late. A faint cracking sound was heard, followed by a huge, continuous roar.

Before Sanwei could even react, it was knocked underwater, its shell completely shattered. From then on, every punch Yi Shuihan landed on it sent up splashes of water.

The bodies of tailed beasts are indelible, possessing corresponding attributes, and can achieve an effect almost akin to elementalization in the One Piece world. As a result, their effectiveness in physical attacks is very limited; even if the Three-Tails is shattered into pieces, it can reassemble itself.

Yi Shuihan was aware of this, but he still did not take any other measures. Although tailed beasts cannot die, what he was facing now was not a tailed beast but a jinchūriki. If he were really broken into pieces, Yagura would definitely die.

The bombardment lasted for several minutes, and the earth trembled almost throughout the entire Hidden Mist Village. Ordinary people knelt down in fear, constantly praying for God's forgiveness.

Even the ninjas stared in horror at Yi Shuihan's direction, their faces filled with terror.

"Oops, I think I used too much force."

Looking down at the bottomless, dark hole hundreds of meters deep, Yi Shuihan chuckled nonchalantly.

The small lake created by the appearance of the Three-Tails has now disappeared, likely flowing into the large cave.

"Gulu."

The sound of swallowing continued. When the Mist Ninja saw Yi Shuihan's gaze, they all felt as if they had been grabbed by something. They stiffly put on a flattering expression and forced a smile, but they didn't know that what they were showing was a smile that was uglier than crying.

Now their only thought was to get as far away from Yi Shuihan, that demon. That dark, gaping hole seemed to connect to hell, emanating a chilling, black aura.

Even the Fourth Hokage, who had transformed into a fully-formed tailed beast, was no match for them, so they were even less of a match.

As for the Third Mizukage, they had no hope of him. Yi Shuihan's strength had exceeded their expectations, and even if the Third Mizukage came, he would probably just be there to die.

Now they even hope that the Third Mizukage will hide and not appear here, so that Kirigakure can retain a sliver of vitality and not suffer a major blow and become completely devastated.

"Young man, can you tell me what exactly happened?"

The Third Mizukage finally appeared, with a head full of white hair and an expression that seemed to indicate that his life force had been exhausted. Although his aura was still relatively strong, Yi Shuihan could tell at a glance that his body was already tattered inside and that he was now just a shell of his former self.

"As you can see, I just finished sparring with the Fourth Mizukage, and it looks like I won."

What grudge do you hold against us?

“Grievance? No! Didn’t I say I was just here to spar? If you spar with me one more time, I’ll leave immediately.”

Yi Shuihan's words silenced the Third Mizukage.

Chapter 360, Submitting the Task

"After the sparring session, regardless of winning or losing, you will leave?"

The Third Mizukage's voice carried a hint of tragic solemnity. No matter what, he could only follow Yi Shuihan's wishes, since the stronger party now was Yi Shuihan, not the Mist Ninja.

Once upon a time, Kirigakure, one of the Five Great Ninja Villages, was so powerful. Has it now fallen so low that it has to act according to the whims of one person? First Hokage, I have failed your expectations!

"Lord Sandai, no! How can we believe what this devil says? You should leave quickly, and we'll hold him off."

"Yes, please hurry, the village needs you!"

The Mist Ninja shouted loudly. Originally, they were thinking of escaping, but now they seemed to have become different people, becoming guardians of their homeland. Yi Shuihan was speechless.

Is this really okay? It's like I'm some kind of world-destroying demon king.

I really just came here for a friendly spar. If that guy from the fourth generation hadn't been so rude from the start, there wouldn't have been so much damage.

The explanation was forcibly left in his heart. Yi Shuihan knew that even if he said it, it wouldn't make any difference. People, once they have a subjective judgment, will think in the direction of their judgment no matter what you say.

By adopting an attitude that showed he was completely unaffected by the touching scene, he actually seemed to fit the impression that others had of him.

"Boss, are you not going to wipe out Kirigakure?!"

Toyota Sei was completely bewildered by Yi Shuihan's current appearance and couldn't help but start having wild thoughts.

Of course, even if Yi Shuihan really did that, Feng Tianqing wouldn't have any other thoughts. He had been hurt enough by this place and had no more ties. Now he was Yi Shuihan's man. At most, he wouldn't intervene when Yi Shuihan wiped out the Mist Ninja, which would be for the sake of his hometown.

"I'll leave after the sparring session."

"Your Excellency, I have agreed to the sparring, and I hope you will not go back on your word."

Under the watchful eyes of the Kirigakure ninja, the battle ended very quickly. Yi Shuihan had lost all will to fight, so he simply flashed behind the Third Mizukage and knocked him unconscious with a chop to the neck.

The battle lasted less than a second from start to finish, and Yi Shuihan secured victory.

Without leaving a single word, he took Toyota Ao and left without any hindrance, proceeding very smoothly.

Moreover, after leaving the village, they heard a deafening celebration, as if it were New Year's Day, which made Feng Tianqing look at Yi Shuihan strangely.

"Boss, you really have no interest in this place? If you were to come and become the Mizukage, I would wholeheartedly support you."

"What's so great about being the Mizukage? I wouldn't even want this mess if you gave it to me."

"Could you tell me how to become a hot spring resort owner?"

"???"

Yi Shuihan found Toyota Ao's question baffling.

He wants me to usurp the throne? The thought flashed through his mind but quickly faded; he could tell that Toyota Ao didn't mean it that way.

Why become a hot spring resort owner?

"Isn't being a hot spring shop owner a much better job than being a ninja? I don't want to be a ninja, I want to change jobs."

"Job change!?"

Yi Shuihan looked at Feng Tianqing speechlessly, not knowing how to explain to him that his strength had nothing to do with being a hot spring shop owner. It wasn't a profession, it was just the literal meaning.

There's a job change system? Are you sure this isn't just a game? If this job really existed, I'd love to try it out!

"I might consider helping you change your ninja class once your ninja strength surpasses that of a Kage."

"Really? That's great! I must work hard and try to change jobs as soon as possible."

The idiotic look on Toyota Blue made Yi Shuihan feel guilty for bullying a child.

Well, it's not exactly lying to him. Once his strength truly surpasses that of a Kage, how about letting him be the owner of a branch of the hot spring resort? And when I'm gone, I can consider giving him my position.

"Is this Konoha? It's so bustling!"

Toyota's country bumpkin-like appearance, glancing around, made Yi Shuihan, who was ahead of him, quicken his pace.

"Hey, boss, wait for me, don't walk so fast."

Waiting for you? No way.

Originally, Yi Shuihan planned to teleport back immediately after the sparring session, but he changed his mind and instead traveled back with Feng Tianqing along the way, so that he could collect some medicinal herbs along the way and research some medicines that would be useful to Feng Tianqing.

Of course, the most important thing was that Yi Shuihan wanted to see if Toyota Qing's Bloodline Limit was really as awesome as he thought, and whether it had the potential to evolve.

The results proved that the Bloodline Limit could continue to evolve, and with continuous use, the control over the drug's effects gradually increased.

For example, Senryokumaru, who could originally only endure for one month, returned to Konoha and it had become two months, doubling the time.

This level of evolution has already exceeded Yi Shuihan's imagination. Yi Shuihan can imagine that if it continues to evolve in the future, it might even be able to consume battle power pills indefinitely.

Even Yi Shuihan was somewhat envious of Toyota Ao's Bloodline Limit, but when he realized that this Bloodline Limit was based on chakra, he no longer longed for it so much.

Chakra is always a relatively low-level energy. No matter how powerful it is, it won't be too overpowered. This bloodstain might be useful for those below Silver rank, but it's probably useless for those above Silver rank.

Even at his strongest, Toyota Ao's strength could not possibly surpass that of Otsutsuki Kaguya, unless he encounters some extraordinary event that fundamentally alters his bloodline once again.

"The boss is back!"

Has anything major happened recently?

"Big news? I don't think so."

Why would I ask him? Dai is basically uninterested in outside affairs unless it becomes common knowledge; otherwise, he knows less than an average person.

"Then forget it. He's Toyota Sei, and he'll have the same status as you in the future. You make arrangements for him, and I'll leave for a bit."

After tossing Toyota Blue to Matt Dai, Yi Shuihan went to his room alone.

"Phew, it's about time. I'll just submit the task."

With little time left before the one-year deadline, Yi Shuihan knew it was practically impossible to increase the completion rate any further, so he decided to turn in the quest.

Chapter 361, 27% chance of increasing the success rate of the lottery.

"Originally, I only needed to defeat 3 people, but now I've defeated 27, a full 9 times more. I wonder what the final reward will be?"

Filled with anticipation, Yi Shuihan clicked on the task submission interface.

"Only 3 days left? A year really flies!"

After reviewing the task once more and confirming that nothing had been missed, Yi Shuihan submitted it.

"Ding, task submitted..."

"Submission complete, reward being generated..."

The interface paused for several seconds, which had never happened before. In the past, the reward would be given immediately after submitting the task. Of course, this might be because the reward this time was based on the completion rate.

The anticipation was palpable; Yi Shuihan felt an overwhelming urge to know what the reward would be. Every second felt like an eternity.

"Ding, rewards have been distributed. Please check them yourself."

My heart skipped a beat, and I quickly switched to the reward distribution interface. My eyes narrowed slightly, and in 01 seconds I saw the answer I wanted.

"It's this!!" Unable to suppress a smile, Yi Shuihan felt that all the hard work he had put in these past few days to achieve the completion rate was completely worthwhile.

There are two rewards for the mission. The first is two chances to draw a prize, which can be stored and are not limited to this world. The first reward made Yi Shuihan feel that the trip was worthwhile, but the second reward was what excited him the most.

The second bonus is a 27% increase in the success rate of the lottery. As for its effect, it's very simple and straightforward: when choosing a lottery, no matter what lottery you choose, it can change the original lottery odds and increase the success rate, up to a maximum of 27%.

Moreover, this 27% success rate can be broken down and used multiple times. For example, if your Silver Lottery chance is originally 50%, you can increase it by 27% to 77% at once, or you can increase it by less than 27%, such as increasing it by only 10% to make the success rate 60%.

Of course, once it becomes 60%, only 17% remains.

"It applies to all lotteries, so it should definitely be used for the Gold Lottery! Using it for other lotteries would be a waste, or if the Silver Lottery has a 90% or higher success rate, making it 100% would also work. Winning every time and having no chance of winning are two different things!"

"Is the 27% figure in the system because I defeated 27 Shadows?"

Yi Shuihan suddenly asked.

"good."

"So that means if I defeat 100 Shadows, my chances of winning the lottery will increase by 100%?"

"That's not how it's calculated. The rewards change depending on the number of people defeated. If you're below 10, you only get one chance to win. If you're between 10 and 19, you get two chances to win. If you're between 20 and 29, you get two chances to win, plus a chance to win. If you're 29, you get two chances to win plus a 29% chance to win."

"When you reach level 30, you will receive an additional reward on top of level 29. As for the specific host, since they haven't reached that level, the system hasn't calculated it."

The system rattled off a whole bunch of things, and Yi Shuihan's initially pleasant mood vanished instantly.

He was filled with regret! He was just three people short. If he could defeat three more, he would get an extra reward. This third reward might even be better than increasing the success rate—it would guarantee a 3% success rate in the gold lottery. When this thought crossed Yi Shuihan's mind, his heart clenched again.

After regretting it for a full 10 minutes, Yi Shuihan finally pulled himself together.
