Naruto: Lama Tobi was exposed by the sky curtain

Chapter 449 Challenge

[Uchiha Madara: Nameless? Could she be that Uchiha Nameless?]

[Uchiha Izuna: Hmm... but hair and eye color aren't characteristics of the Uchiha clan.]

[Tobirama Senju: Hmph, are you stupid? Virtual characters in games can change their appearance. Although her hair and eye color are different, her face shape and attire are very much in line with the traditional Uchiha clan.]

[Uchiha Izuna: You white-haired brat!!]

[Akimichi Chocho: But what Izuna-sensei said isn't entirely unreasonable. Apart from Sara Shin, almost everyone in the Uchiha clan has brown or black hair.]

[Mai Shiranui: Yeah, his red hair really stands out too much among the Uchiha clan. I guess Karin's Uzumaki bloodline is pretty strong.]

[Boruto Uzumaki: Then why aren't Himawari and I red-haired?]

[Mitsuki: That must mean your grandfather's genes were stronger. It seems like he's wearing the skin of a commoner ninja but is actually a member of a hidden powerful clan—a very common trope.]

Minato Namikaze: ......

[Screen continues...]

Xiao Wu and Wuming team up to complete the challenge.

The first challenge consists of wild animals, which can be easily wiped out even without using ninjutsu.

During this process, Xiao Wu also subtly observed Wuming.

"The movements were swift and decisive, but the methods were outdated, suggesting that the ninja was likely older."

After sweeping up the rewards, Wuming happily said, "Next level, shall we?"

"Ah."

Upon reaching the fifth level, the game's scenery undergoes a dramatic change—humanoid monsters appear! These monsters possess human-like forms, yet exude an evil aura that sends chills down the spine. Faced with such powerful enemies, novice players relying solely on their meager attack power, coupled with traditional martial arts techniques and weapons like shuriken and kunai, will likely find it difficult to pose a substantial threat or inflict significant damage.

"Oh dear... It seems the game designers are deliberately making things difficult for us this time, forcing us to use ninjutsu!" Xiao Wu muttered to herself as she swiftly displayed her light and agile skills, weaving through the dense horde of monsters like a ghost.

He skillfully used various tactical techniques to successfully divert the attention of many monsters and gradually gather them together to form an encirclement.

Just then, Xiao Wu uttered a soft shout: "Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!"

Immediately, he gripped a folding fan tightly and swung it violently. In an instant, an incredibly powerful gust of wind erupted from the fan, like a roaring, furious dragon lunging at the besieged monsters. Accompanied by screams, the monsters' bodies were torn to shreds by the fierce storm, scattering into countless pieces on the ground.

"Although the amount of chakra is fixed, the form of ninjutsu can still be controlled by the player."

On the other side, Wuming spat out a large amount of Phoenix Fire, burning the monster to ashes.

"Not bad Fire Release techniques, and the form transformations are very skillful."

Xiao Wu gave a compliment.

Hearing Xiao Wu's praise, Wuming smiled, as if he had been recharged. Looking at the approaching monster horde, Wuming quickly made his move.

Fire Release: Great Fire Annihilation

The nameless creature unleashed a massive wave of flames, as vast as the ocean, leaving the unfortunate monster horde with no room to dodge and resulting in their complete annihilation.

This stunned Xiao Wu, who was observing from the side. Of course, it wasn't because of the power of this ninjutsu, but because the move she used was a B-rank ninjutsu.

The game rules state that passing the tenth level unlocks the B-rank ninjutsu learning privilege, but she just received the first-clear reward, which means this is also her first time passing the level.

"How did she learn that? Even if it's a ninjutsu she already knows, she can't use it because it's restricted in the game."

Theoretically, Xiao Wu could break the game's rules and restrictions with her own abilities, but that would ruin the gaming experience.

"Could she be using cheats? Or exploiting a bug?"

"Forget it, let's not pry into other people's privacy."

…………

Xiao Wu and Wuming made it to the tenth level.

The boss of the tenth level is a huge mutated tiger.

Its attack power, defense power, and speed are more than ten times stronger than the bosses in the previous levels. Generally speaking, almost all novice players can only pass the ninth level if they try to complete the game in one life.

The mutated tiger's speed was too fast for many people to react to, and its tail could sweep across a wide area, and it even had a second form.

Therefore, when facing the tenth level, players can only choose to farm the first nine levels to upgrade and buy equipment, and then proceed with the challenge after they are fully prepared.

Unlike other levels, level 10 only offers the option to either continue or exit. Exiting automatically results in failure. Therefore, no one has completed all ten levels so far.

Xiao Wu and Wuming chose to challenge the level. After entering the tenth level, they saw a mutated tiger lying on the altar, staring at them with a bloodthirsty expression.

"Wow, wow, just this aura is on a completely different level from the previous BOSS."

Xiao Wu turned to Wuming and said, "Wuming, you need to be careful to dodge. I've seen a description of it in the quest log guide. With our current health, we can't withstand its second attack."

"I understand, Xiao Wu, you need to be careful too."

As the last second ticked away, a roar suddenly broke the silence. The incomparably powerful tiger leaped off the stage like an arrow, pouncing straight at Xiao Wu and Wuming with unparalleled momentum!

Faced with such a fierce attack, Xiao Wu was not afraid at all. He flashed his body and dodged to the side as quickly as a ghost. At the same time, the hidden weapons in his hand - sharp shuriken - were also scattered into the air like raindrops. These sharp blades, which were gleaming with cold light, drew beautiful arcs in the air and landed accurately on the tiger, making a crisp sound when they hit it.

Meanwhile, Wuming seized the opportunity, and a raging flame rose from around Xiao Wu, followed by a series of deafening explosions. It turned out that Wuming had unleashed a powerful fire-style technique, combined with a large number of explosive tags, causing some damage to the tiger.

However, this powerful BOSS was not easily defeated. It opened its gaping maw, revealing sharp fangs, and extended its thick, powerful claws, unleashing a signature move called the Fierce Tiger Pounce at Xiao Wu. This attack was incredibly powerful, accompanied by a howling wind that sent chills down one's spine.

Although Xiao Wu's physical stats are fixed, everyone's combat experience, awareness, and reaction speed vary greatly. For the battle-hardened Xiao Wu, the tiger's speed, while seemingly extraordinary, is actually quite average. As long as she anticipates its movements and uses agile and varied movement techniques, dodging its repeated fierce attacks is not difficult.
