Chapter 444: The Cowardly System
"no!"
Hearing the long-lost prompt from the system, Shilang was stunned for a moment, then he directly refused without even looking at the content of the task.
It's not that it can't be accomplished. With the Heaven's Chain in hand, the Three-Tailed Fox is just a well-protected beast to him. Moreover, the purpose of his trip is to hunt down the Three-Tailed Fox, which does not conflict with the mission.
The main reason why Shiro refused was that the timing of this mission was a bit coincidental. He just had to deal with the Three-Tails. Moreover, the speed of change in the world happened to be accelerating (in addition to the Mystic Eyes, deformed children with coexisting chakra meridians and magic circuits were born), and the so-called evil god just happened to issue a revelation...
These things mixed together made Shilang think about it. Besides, the repair time was too long. It had been a long time since Shilang's magic power broke through level B. During this period, he had not provided any high-energy substances to the system. This was a bit of a coincidence.
But what's even more coincidental is that Shilang had read a lot of system literature in his previous life, and he had thought about the system's dirty tricks, but he didn't have the power and had no choice before.
Things are different now. Ever since Shiro started that experiment some time ago, he has officially broken free from the limitations of the system. The most obvious thing is that his magic power is still at B level, but he can already project A-level treasures!
This is also the reason why Shilang refused this task. He no longer needs this system, so there is naturally no need to follow its route.
"Ding~ Mission released, capture/kill the three-tailed beast. Do you accept?"
"Tip: If you refuse, the database will be permanently closed. After completing the task, the database will be backed up and separated."
"Um?"
The system's prompt made Shiro retract his right foot, which was about to take a step forward. The amount of information revealed by this re-issued task was quite large.
Putting aside the ownership of the database that is open to the public, this is still quite important to Shiro. There is too much information in it. Although Shiro has been transferring it, his ability is limited and he has not transferred much.
He knew very well that if he relied on his own research on magic, the progress would probably be very slow. Although projection magic could help him gain magic knowledge, it was not comprehensive and was just fragmented.
It works well for daily training, but it’s pretty useless for learning.
Shiro was not surprised, otherwise he would not have transferred the data. What surprised him was that the system's task had changed. Before, it required capturing, but now it seemed that killing was also possible...
The amount of information revealed here is quite large...
But he immediately put it aside. Shilang didn't want to delve into this matter. As mentioned before, he didn't have enough ability to participate in it yet. The right thing to do now was to seize every opportunity to strengthen himself.
This ability is not just about strength, it also includes many things. For example, Uchiha Madara is strong enough, right? But he still didn't participate, and even his understanding of things is not as good as Shiro and Orochimaru.
For example, Snake Hermit and Gamamaru, the strength of these two is not as good as Shiro and Orochimaru, but they know more about this aspect than them.
But for now, Shiro has actually already made his choice. After all, his core capability system and what he wants to plan have destined him to side with one side, unlike Orochimaru who still has a certain degree of choice.
These things only stayed in Shiro's mind for a moment before disappearing again or sinking deeper into his thoughts. What he was now a little curious about was the content of the mission.
The task must be taken up. The database is more important to him at the moment, but how to complete the task and how much to complete require careful consideration.
Shiro didn't forget that this system was thrown to the Type-Moon world after it was crippled. Maybe it could also be used as a choice of team. If he accidentally stood in its team, Shiro would be really in tears.
“Mission: Capture/kill the three-tailed beast!
Mission content: The world is about to face great changes. The tailed beasts play an important role in the Naruto world. The three-tailed beast, which has a great influence on the world line, is among them. Capturing or killing the three-tailed beast will rewrite part of the world's process.
Mission requirements: 1. Kill the three-tailed monster! (Completion 60%)
2. Capture the three tails! (Completion 100%)
Mission Rewards: With 60% completion, you will obtain permanent ownership of the database separated from the system. With 100% completion, you will obtain permanent ownership of the database separated from the system and the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception/the method to activate/obtain any anti-star treasure!
Note: 100% completion can only be achieved if the system completely absorbs the three tails!"
After reading the mission with more information, Shilang was like this...
(○o○)
After reading the mission content and mission rewards, Shilang knew that his guess was correct. The system was indeed a single camp, and the benefits were very good!
Whether it was a direct death or a star attack, as long as he got one, Shiro would be able to take off on the spot, but he didn't dare.
Shiro was very aware of his own strength. He was not worth this price at all. The fact that the system could offer this price indirectly showed that it was guilty. At least in terms of strength, it was far inferior to the other two sides.
But unfortunately, the higher the system's bid, the less interested Shiro became. The database was still okay, as he was going to kill the Three-Tailed Fox anyway, and he had no ability to stop the system from absorbing the Three-Tailed Fox's dissipated energy. It didn't hurt to take the mission, as he could even get some benefits.
As for capturing the Three-Tailed Fox, Shiro could only say that he was helpless. Putting aside the fact that he was in excessive contact with the system, most of his own strength was obtained through the system, so he didn't mind it much.
The key issue is that Sanwei also plays an important role in Shiro's plan. He can accept Sanwei being killed, but he cannot accept it being absorbed by the system, which will disrupt many of Shiro's plans.
Moreover, the task rewards given by the system only look good. It does not mean that you will get them after completing them. The system only gives you an opportunity, and whether you can get it is still unknown.
If this were the system in its heyday, Shiro would have chosen 100% completion without hesitation, as he believed the system could easily grant him such power. However, with the current system, forget it.
"Lord Emiya, what's wrong?" The ninja who provided information to Shiro, who was also his adjutant during the war, asked carefully after seeing Shiro standing there without moving for a while.
"Huh? Oh, it's okay, let's go." Hearing the adjutant's reminder, Shilang was stunned for a moment, then continued to move forward with the adjutant.
'Do you accept the mission?'
'yes!'
Shiro's decision to kill the Three-Tails was not a momentary impulse. Regardless of whether Madara and the others kidnapped Obito or not, Shiro would eventually come and kill the Three-Tails!
The most important reason is that whether it was the sealing of the Three-Tails in Rin's body in the original work, or Obito's later control of the Three-Tails Jinchuriki Yagura, it all represents that Madara and the others have a very high degree of control over the Three-Tails!
It may even be higher than the Nine-Tails, which was forced to sign a summoning contract by Madara. After all, the Nine-Tails is still sealed and isolated by the Uzumaki clan, so it is not so easy to control it.
But the Three-Tails is different. It can be controlled even from within the body of a Jinchūriki. It is very useless, so Shiro will kill it first, and will hunt it regularly!
The hunting operation will not stop until Shiro needs the Three-Tailed Fox.
There is no way. The tailed beasts are nothing to Shiro, but they are definitely a powerful weapon for others. Without the three tails, Shiro believes that Jue and the others' future plans will definitely be much more difficult.
Therefore, even without the system's task, Shiro would have killed Sanwei. The reason why the system regenerated a task that was more beneficial to him after he refused the task was probably because the system would gain more after Shiro accepted the task.
For example, cause and effect, but Shiro still didn't understand that thing, so he didn't delve into it. He just followed his own plan.
"What? Are you in such a hurry to end the battle? Is there something wrong with Kirigakure?"
Just as Shilang and his companions were about to leave the camp, Taiyi's voice suddenly came from the side, and the man slowly walked out, looking at Shilang with a smile.
"Danzo is about to arrive at Kirigakure, and I need to get the Mizukage to sign the letter of surrender before he does. How about joining me? Let's go and admire my heroic fighting form."
After Shilang finished speaking, the adjutant who was one body length behind him immediately lowered his head and stepped back one body length.
As a special Jonin who was good at position management, he was not worried about being executed for such a thing, but he also did not want to get involved in such a fight. With his weak arms and legs, he could not withstand the tossing of these big guys.
Taiyi glanced at the adjutant who lowered his head and said nothing. Everyone has their own choices. He did not agree with this approach, but he would not interfere.
"What are you going to do? Although Kirigakure is considering surrendering, they've only just concluded the Earth Country battle, where they deployed very few troops. They're probably still waiting for the Lightning Country battle. Going there now won't yield much."
"So I plan to cripple them first and then talk about the surrender. If they don't sign, I'll keep fighting until they do."
Taiyi was stunned for a moment, then laughed: "You guys are still as reckless as ever. Do you have a target?"
"Got it, Sanwei, this should be a good way to show your power."
"No way? Going after the tailed beasts again? You guys just got rid of their Five Tails a while ago, and now you're doing it again?"
"Hasn't their Five-Tails under control? Kumogakure, Sand Village, and Rock Village have all lost a tailed beast. If Kirigakure doesn't keep up with the formation, they will be targeted. This is for their own good."
“.”
"The Three-Tails Jinchuriki should be in the camp below. How do you plan to fight him?"
"How else can we fight? Of course we just go in and kill them!" As he said that, Shiro smeared the blood on his hands, and then
"Psychic Technique: Blue Snake!"
"Bang!"
A large amount of spiritual smoke dissipated, and a blue snake that was several times larger suddenly appeared on the battlefield.
"Am I remembering it wrong? Why does it feel like this Blue Snake has grown a lot bigger? It's almost catching up with Orochimaru's Manga, right? Why don't you use its power?" Taichi stood on the head of the Blue Snake and looked down in surprise.
"Well, the Snake Immortal gave it some intensive training, and the potion experiments Ah Yue does on a regular basis will also benefit it, so that's it. As for why it's not used."
"Because Blue Snake's power doesn't match Shiro's fighting style, and its use is too limited."
"So you, the gray snake, took the opportunity to get promoted?" Taiyi said with a meaningful smile as he looked at the gray snake that suddenly climbed onto Shiro's shoulder.
"Hiss~ I feel like you are thinking about something bad." The gray snake looked at Taiyi and his eyes began to flash dangerous colors.
"No, no, this is all your illusion, Gray Snake." Seeing that Gray Snake was a little serious, Taiyi quickly waved his hand and apologized to Gray Snake.
Taichi and Gray Snake have been cooperating for a long time. He knows very well that the cold-blooded part of Gray Snake has long disappeared. Therefore, he feels guilty about taking Blue Snake's position and becoming Shiro's partner.
Although Blue Snake has no objection, after all, it is the fact that Blue Snake is better at frontal assaults on the battlefield and is more about strength, but Shilang's fighting style is more inclined towards skills, so there is nothing that can be done about their incompatibility.
The Gray Snake is different. It is small in size and proficient in perception and some reverse summoning techniques. It is a very good auxiliary. Later, with the help of Shiro, it also learned the half-sage technique. (Referring to the sage mode, the summoning beast can directly use the sage technique without the time limit of the sage mode)
The blue snake is different from the gray snake that was seriously influenced by Shiro in the early days. It has no resentment about having its status taken away. It is a law of the jungle where the strong prey on the weak and the fittest survive. Being abandoned is just because it is not strong enough.
Therefore, there is no need to be unwilling. Since it has been taken away from you, work hard to become stronger and then take it back!
This is also the reason why the blue snake actively cooperates with A Yue's potion experiment, which can make it stronger quickly.
"Bang! Boom boom boom!"
As Taichi and the Gray Snake were facing off, the Blue Snake, after its adjutant had gone down, fiercely charged into the Kirigakure camp! It triggered a series of traps, unleashing a massive burst of flames. Combined with the Blue Snake's roar, it transformed the area into a scene of hell!
"Konoha."
"Water Style: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"
The Mizukage would naturally not fail to sense such a big commotion. After arriving at the scene, the Mizukage gritted his teeth and started with a water dragon bullet. Regardless of whether it was effective or not, or whether he could win or not, at least he had to show his attitude.
pity
“Squeak, squeak, squeak!”
Accompanied by a burst of thunder, a flash of lightning flashed, and the powerful water dragon was shattered into water splashes all over the sky before it even touched the blue snake!
"Emiya Shirou and Uchiha Taichi are currently in a peace negotiation period. What do you want to do?"
"Wait a minute, I'm not looking for you. Where is the Three-Tails Jinchuriki?"
"I refuse to answer. Now is the negotiation period. Your actions will..."
"Sizzle~"
"What will happen?"
Before the Mizukage could finish his words, Taichi suddenly appeared in front of him and interrupted him. He looked down at Taichi's slender right hand on his neck, which was shining with lightning, and fell silent.
"Is this Shunrai Taichi?"
