Chapter 43 : Sign-in

"Of course, Mizukage-sama!"

Excitement filled the voices of the Mist Shinobi as they hurriedly exited the cabin.

None of the Mist Shinobi present doubted that their Mizukage would shy away from this duel.

After all, dealing with the Uzumaki clan, with their fiery spirits, should be a piece of cake, right?

Even the Elder Genji, who usually kept a close eye on the Third Mizukage, remained silent, consenting to tomorrow's showdown.

They all had unwavering faith in the Third Mizukage's strength.

Were the Uzumaki clan truly that naïve? Would they willingly enter a gamble without confidence?

The Third Raikage recalled the curious feeling he had when he arrived.

He added, "Mizukage, let's not be complacent. The Uzumaki clan might have some hidden trump cards; after all, they've been around for centuries!"

"They could possess various extraordinary abilities!"

The Raikage, having experienced the world, knew that many legendary ninja tools had been passed down through generations.

Just like the legendary ninja tools passed down from Sage of Six Path in Land of Thunder, he believed that the Uzumaki clan had their own treasures.

The Third Mizukage caught on to the Raikage's implication.

"If the Uzumaki clan possessed such power, they wouldn't reveal it now. They'd save it for when we entered the Land of Whirlpools."

"Even if they had ninja tools passed down from ancient times in the Land of Whirlpools, it's the confidence they need."

"However, no matter how miraculous their ninja tools are, they can't defeat me. In the ninja world, one's own strength is still paramount."

The Third Mizukage raised his head, brimming with confidence.

Seeing the Mizukage's unwavering belief, the Raikage smiled.

"Hahahaha, Mizukage, you still have the heart of a true warrior, unlike those who endlessly prattle. As the Kages of our villages, it's laughable if you lack this confidence!"

"You are a worthy partner in this endeavor. Mist Shinobi wouldn't be fit to work with us otherwise!"

"After this battle, let's find a place to spar ourselves! I've grown rusty in the Cloud Shinobi Village these days!"

The Third Raikage didn't hold back, openly expressing his thoughts.

"And since you've agreed to this gamble, I'll join in as well."

"How could I resist such an intriguing event!"

It had been a long time since the First Ninja War, and the Third Raikage found this situation highly entertaining.

Today, he had purposely ventured near the waters of the Land of Whirlpools, hoping to find something interesting.

Originally, he was here to assist in capturing the escaping Uzumaki clan members or preventing their escape.

Little did he know, he would come across something this fascinating. A welcome break from the never-ending bureaucratic work that plagued him day after day!

The Third Raikage couldn't help but think to himself.

Observing the enthusiastic Third Raikage, the Mizukage nodded in agreement.

After all, the Raikage's words had cemented their partnership.

Seeing the Raikage's arrival, it should be the Uzumaki clan who should be feeling the pressure.

At this moment, the Third Mizukage was growing increasingly curious about the reaction of the Uzumaki clan upon encountering the Cloud Shinobi.

*****

After receiving the news from the Third Mizukage, Kazuhiko rubbed his chin and glanced at the departing Mist Shinobi and clan patriarch.

"Tomorrow, huh? Alright!"

Kazuhiko had thought he would have a couple more days to negotiate.

He had planned to let the clan head finalize the terms of the gambling match, recording the terms of victory and defeat in an official contract.

However, he didn't expect the Mist Shinobi to act so decisively this time. Could it be that the Raikage's arrival had spurred them on?

Or were they genuinely confident? If that was the case, Kazuhiko was prepared to disappoint them.

He didn't dwell on it for long. With the Raikage's presence, it became imperative to enhance his strength as quickly as possible.

Kazuhiko wasn't overly concerned about any adversary, be it the Third Mizukage or the Third Raikage.

"System, open my attributes panel."

"Host: Kazuhiko

Age: 10 years old

Current Sign-In Location: Ninja World· Land of Whirlpools

Upcoming Sign-In Location: None (to be refreshed)

Signed-In Locations: Uzumaki Clan Lands, Uzumaki Clan Secret Room

Rewards: Admiral Kizaru Template of the One Piece World (37.138%, in development), Shinigami World Eleventh Team Captain Zaraki Kenpachi Template (in development), Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique, Lightning Style: Lightning Pillar, Water Style: Water Barrier, Wind Style: Great Breakthrough, Earth Style: Earth Shore Return

Note: The host has successfully Signed in. Please wait for the next Sign-in opportunity."

Kazuhiko examined his updated attributes panel with satisfaction.

In recent days, he had acquired both Wind and Earth Chakra, making him proficient in all five elemental Chakra types.

With the Yin and Yang Chakra elements, he could potentially become an all-attribute ninja. This would offer him various options to enhance his ninjutsu and bloodline limits.

Besides the renowned bloodline limits, Kazuhiko's ultimate goal was to create his own unique bloodline limit.

Once he became an all-attribute ninja, he would have the opportunity to experiment with it. With the support of the system, he was confident he could achieve remarkable results.

However, those plans were for the future. Right now, the top priority was to boost his current strength.

Today's Sign-in was crucial because the system allowed one Sign-in per day at any location, offering random rewards.

Kazuhiko had a strong intuition that today's Sign-in might yield unexpected benefits.

"System, proceed with the Sign-in."
