Chapter 080: Star Sand, The Power Surge of Gaara!

Golden List Livestream.

[Hashirama Senju: The Pet Rankings are about to be updated, but there shouldn't be many changes at the top, right?]

[Tsunade: It should still be Ye Tian's summoning beasts in the top spots, though the order might shuffle a bit.]

[Garaga: I finally evolved into a Gem Dragon. I hope I can advance by one or two spots!]

[White Snake Sage: I hope I can make some progress too!]

[Garaga: Old lady, the top ten spots are already taken by us. You should stay in the eleventh place!]

The White Snake Sage didn't argue. After all, the top ten had received a lot of valuable rewards, and even Garaga must have made tremendous progress. It was almost impossible for her to surpass the top ten; she could only wish for it in her heart.

Soon, the Pet Rankings officially began to refresh.

As usual, the rankings started from the first place.

Just like before, the first place in the Pet Rankings remained Beerus, with no change.

Then, the second place was updated.

Previously, the second place in the Pet Rankings was Sun Wukong. A few people were curious to see if it remained Sun Wukong this time.

"It's still Sun Wukong!"

Kumoko sighed, giving up hope. She thought she had made significant progress, but it seemed that others had made even greater strides!

Next, the third place was updated.

[Third place in the Pet Rankings: Kumoko, Owner: Ye Tian]

"Good, I surpassed that Red Lotus guy!" Kumoko said with a smile.

In the depths of the ocean...

Red Lotus Godzilla noticed the change in the Pet Rankings. His third place had been overtaken by the Kumoko.

"Kumoko improved quickly, even surpassing me. I remember when she was just a small fry, so weak that she couldn't withstand the aftershocks of my atomic breath, and now she's surpassed me! Sigh, it's still better to stay close to the master. The progress is fast, but unfortunately, the master doesn't let me return!" Red Lotus Godzilla said helplessly.

Of course, he also understood that with his enormous size and lack of transformation skills, he wasn't suitable to stay by the master's side—unless he could transform.

But, seemingly due to his species, he had never been able to transform.

Thus, he could only remain in the depths of the ocean, searching for mineral resources for his master.

[Tsunade: Kumoko has advanced again, now reaching fourth place in the Pet Rankings. This spider is something else!]

[Mei Terumi: Yes, this spider is incredibly powerful, advancing at a rapid pace!]

[Garaga: Kumoko, you're amazing!]

[Red Lotus: Kumoko, I'll surpass you next time!]

[Kumoko: Haha, maybe next time, I'll be second, or even first!]

[Sun Wukong: Kumoko, you'd better not think about surpassing me unless the master specifically helps you!]

[Rongrong: The master likes Kumoko, so he might just help her out.]

[Nine-Tails: Oh, all the top ten big shots in the Pet Rankings have come out today!]

[Four-Tails: @Sun Wukong, Big Brother, hello! I'm Sun Wukong; I'll be your little brother from now on!]

[Sun Wukong: I know you, but if you want to be my little brother, you need to at least have Garaga's strength. Your strength is too weak!]

[Hashirama Senju: True, the Tailed Beasts are indeed too weak. Even the Nine-Tails falls a bit short!]

[Four-Tails: Garaga's strength? Never mind!]

Then, the fourth place in the Pet Rankings was updated.

This time, it was Red Lotus Godzilla's turn to be in fourth place.

There weren't many changes in the rankings after this, and soon it reached the ninth place.

At this moment, Garaga was a bit anxious.

The ninth place would either be Rongrong or her.

"It's me! It's me!"

Garaga shouted out.

At that moment, a terrifying cold aura swept over, freezing her in place. Coupled with her Ruby Dragon body, she looked like a giant gemstone ice sculpture.

"Garaga, you still want to surpass Rongrong? You should stay in the tenth place!" Yaya said as she walked over.

"Can't I even think about it?"

Garaga thought, feeling aggrieved.

"Yaya, stop teasing Garaga!" Ye Tian said.

"Alright!"

Yaya nodded slightly.

At this point, Garaga gathered her strength and shattered the ice.

In reality, her strength had grown immensely now, almost equal to Yaya's, so the ice couldn't trap her.

At this moment, the ninth place was updated.

[Ninth place in the Pet Rankings: Fox Spirit Rongrong, Owner: Ye Tian]

"As expected, it's still Rongrong!"

Yaya said.

"Ah, it's still Sister Rongrong, I'm still in tenth place!!!" Garaga was completely defeated, "I clearly evolved into a Gem Dragon, and I even obtained the Garaga Claw weapon. My strength has improved rapidly!"

"Because your original strength was too weak. You've only just caught up now. To surpass Rongrong, you'll need to work harder!" Honghong said.

"Fine!"

Garaga nodded helplessly, realizing this might be the case.

Of course.

If she evolved into a true dragon adept in combat, she might really surpass Sister Rongrong.

Afterward, the rankings continued to update, with the White Snake Sage still in eleventh place.

The rest of the rankings showed almost no changes.

Soon, the Pet Rankings update ended.

Next was the reward distribution phase, starting from the first place, with each reward given out one by one.

Since there weren't any new pets on the list, the rewards were fairly ordinary.

The first place in the Pet Rankings, Beerus, only received a Thunder Tribulation Fruit this time.

The first place on the Pet Rankings, Beerus, only received a Thunder Tribulation Fruit as a reward this time. The Thunder Tribulation Fruit refines the body using the power of thunder. While it has some effect on Beerus, it's not significant enough to instantly and greatly enhance his strength.

The second-place reward for Sun Wukong is Monkey Wine, another type of wine, but not as precious as Celestial Wine.

The reward for Kumoko is also quite ordinary—a Demon Fruit that can increase Demon King's power. For Kumoko, it only slightly enhances her Demon King's strength.

Octopus Sensei received a Spirit Fruit, a fruit that slightly enhances spiritual power.

Slime King Rimuru also received another Demon Fruit that can increase Demon King's power, just slightly less valuable than Kumoko's reward.

Red Lotus Godzilla's reward was a Flame Flower, which, when consumed, can refine the body. For Godzilla, it only slightly enhances his strength.

The Fox Spirit Sisters, Honghong, Yaya, and Rongrong, received rewards that were equally average, merely pills that could enhance their demonic power.

Soon, it was Garaga's turn.

[Tenth place on the Pet Rankings: A drop of Dragon Marrow]

Dragon Marrow contains the essence energy within the bones of the dragon race and is very valuable. For Garaga, who is also of the dragon race, Dragon Marrow is useful. The only regret is that it's just a single drop, so it doesn't provide much help. However, as a young Ruby Dragon within the dragon race, a drop of Dragon Marrow from an adult dragon can still slightly enhance his strength.

Afterward, one reward after another was given, and it was finally Nine-Tails' turn.

Nine-Tails had good luck and received a decent treasure.

[Bone Tempering Pill!]

From the name, it's clear that this pill can significantly temper the bones. Strong bones are the foundation of a powerful body.

However, Nine-Tails was certain that he wouldn't need it and would give it to Naruto. After all, as a Tailed Beast, his power is nearly fixed and cannot be cultivated further, which is one of the Tailed Beasts' weaknesses. Only by developing powerful techniques on their own could the Tailed Beasts hope to become stronger. However, the Tailed Beasts are quite lazy and never bother to develop their own techniques—they always rely on Jinchuriki to use their power for developing techniques.

Somewhere in the Shinobi World, Naruto was training in a canyon, with Jiraiya also present.

At this moment, Naruto took out the Bone Tempering Pill.

Swoosh!

Jiraiya used the Body Flicker Technique to appear beside Naruto and said, "Bone Tempering Pill, huh? Naruto, eat it and see how it works."

"Alright!" Naruto nodded and immediately swallowed the Bone Tempering Pill.

As soon as he swallowed it, a terrifying force surged forth, wildly tempering his bones.

"Ahhhh!!!" Naruto screamed in pain. The Bone Tempering Pill's power was too violent, causing intense pain during the tempering process.

Jiraiya frowned, thinking that something had gone wrong with Naruto, but after a careful check, he realized that the pain was a result of the bone tempering process, not a problem, so he stood by, ready to intervene only if Naruto encountered any major issues.

Crack, crack!

It was as if an invisible, terrifying hand was reshaping Naruto's bones, and from the outside, his bones could be seen shifting under his skin—a truly frightening sight.
