Chapter 186. The Ninja World Finally Witnessed...

---

Konoha.

Yuto Internet Cafe.

Although autumn had arrived and the chilly wind was blowing outside, the internet cafe was still warm, even giving off a faint sense of coziness.

[Yuto Air Conditioning]

[Year-Round Comfort, Extraordinary Warmth – Heating & Cooling at Its Best!]

As soon as Asuma hobbled into the shop on his crutches, all the players who were online looked at him and laughed. Some called out.

"Asuma, you've got new bruises on your face again?"

Asuma didn't reply, just awkwardly walked to his seat and sat down, tidying up his disheveled appearance.

Seeing Asuma like this, everyone burst into laughter. "Did your old man beat you up again?"

Asuma's face immediately turned red, veins popping on his forehead. "It was a spar! A spar doesn't count as getting beaten up!"

"Wasn't it just a father beating his son?"

"It's different! How can you call it a beating when it's between ninjas? I'll defeat him sooner or later!"

However.

The fresh bruises and swelling on his face still made everyone laugh, filling the internet cafe with a lively atmosphere. Even Asuma himself chuckled.

But.

As he laughed, he winced in pain and covered his face.

"Asuma, I think you should rest a bit more," Genma said helplessly. "Or at least go see a medical ninja!"

"It's fine! I've already seen a medical ninja," Asuma waved his left hand casually, his imposing figure radiating confidence. "I'm fine! Even with just my right hand, I can still make them call me Dad!"

"Alright, but those fresh wounds on your face..."

"Don't bring it up!" Hearing Genma's words, Asuma suddenly looked up at a 45-degree angle, his expression filled with melancholy. "I just found the old man's secret stash of money hidden in his ninja tools..." At this point, tears streamed down his face. "I didn't even have time to report it before he found out and hung me up for another beating! Otherwise, my wounds would've healed by now!"

"..."

You were actually planning to report him?

Genma looked at Asuma strangely.

Perhaps it's precisely because of the Third Hokage's deep fatherly love that Asuma craves it even more!

As if remembering something, Genma took the senbon out of his mouth. "By the way, where's Obito? Didn't he finish filming? Why haven't we seen him either?"

"Oh, Obito? I don't know," Asuma shrugged casually. "Maybe you should ask Kakashi."

As he spoke, he used his right hand to log into the game, directly controlling his high-level VIP11 account and heading to the beginner zone.

However.

As soon as he arrived, he fell silent.

He stared in shock at the field of corpses.

"Who... did this?"

Someone stole his kills?

...

Let's rewind time a bit.

Today.

The weather was clear and beautiful.

The mist in Kirigakure had also thinned a little.

It was a great day!

Since Yuto Milk Tea, Yuto BBQ, Yuto Dance Hall, and Yuto Internet Cafe had opened in Kirigakure, the lifestyle of the villagers had undergone significant changes.

The once cold-blooded and boring rule seemed to have been injected with a bit of vitality.

In the past, ninjas who used to immediately dive into new training or continue taking on missions after completing one now chose to relax a little when they returned to the village.

Now, some would go dancing, others would have a barbecue, and some would even buy a cup of milk tea and enjoy the sunset in Kirigakure.

The pace of life seemed to have slowed down considerably.

At this moment.

A young man with bandages wrapped around his body, a sword strapped to his back, and eyes as cold as winter walked into the internet cafe. He said flatly, "Two hours."

As soon as the words were spoken.

Everyone shivered slightly, and the cheerful chatter seemed to instantly disappear as they lowered their heads and quietly played their games.

The ruthless Zabuza had arrived!

Momochi Zabuza!

A genius of the younger generation, who once single-handedly took down all his classmates to change the unfair system in the ninja academy. His actions forced the higher-ups to quickly revise the academy's examination methods, leaving only him as the sole graduate of that year.

Of course, that's not all.

Apart from eliminating all his classmates, Zabuza-senpai, though usually cold and distant... was actually quite decent. He even had quite a few admirers among the civilian ninjas.

However.

Ever since he participated in the Chunin Exams...

Zabuza-senpai seemed to have changed completely. He became extremely hostile to anyone standing behind him. Once, he severely injured a Chunin who accidentally bumped into his ass during a playful moment...

Cold and ruthless.

Unpredictable in temperament.

Therefore, it's best not to provoke him.

Once Zabuza logged in, he didn't care about the others and went straight to his own business. He logged into his account, [Demon of Kirigakure], and, as usual, mocked Konoha.

[Even a pervert gets idolized. Konoha has truly fallen. Do you know what that pervert did?]

Then.

He sneered at the brainless fans, ignoring these mindless fools.

He.

Momochi Zabuza.

He would fight to the death with Konoha's "Ass-aulter"!

And one of the Sannin, Orochimaru... that guy actually dared to covet Zabuza's back. Sooner or later, he'd chop that snake into pieces.

At this moment.

Suddenly.

"Quick! Quick! Come and support us!"

"It's crazy! It's crazy! They're killing like crazy! Hurry up and get online for support!"

"What's going on? Is [The Most Handsome Ninja of Konoha] bullying newcomers again?"

"Didn't they say he got his arm broken for being too arrogant? What? He's healed already?"

Hearing the cries for help, everyone turned their heads in confusion, only to see pale, horrified faces.

"Our ninja village... our ninja village is doomed!"

Everyone was stunned and quickly logged in. Zabuza had already logged into his game as well.

Then.

The sight of corpses scattered everywhere made everyone tremble in fear.

What.

The hell... happened?

...

"Kill them!"

"That's right! F*ck them!"

"Wipe it all out! Destroy everything!"

"We will change this world!"

"May this world be free of deception!"

"Give us back our hard-earned money!"

Countless White Zetsu swarmed into every map, country, and village in the game. Wherever they went... it was like a plague of locusts, leaving nothing behind.

Under the pressure of this terrifying army, newcomers were instantly wiped out, and even the slightly stronger players were quickly overwhelmed and killed.

Considering the unique nature of ninjas, Yuto hadn't implemented any safe zones in the game. After all, in the ninja world... death was a common occurrence. Adding safe zones would only restrict the players and make them uncomfortable.

But who could have predicted.

That one day...

The White Zetsu army would awaken?!

Countless maps began to fall one after another. First, the Land of Rain, a small country that had just joined the network. With few players, it was quickly overrun, infuriating Hanzo, who desperately organized a counterattack.

Unfortunately.

It was too late.

After all, many White Zetsu had been playing longer than him.

Next.

Kirigakure and the Land of Water fell one after another. By the time all the maps were occupied, some discerning players began to form resistance forces. They died repeatedly, only to respawn and charge again, until... their equipment durability ran out.

In the end.

Even the Land of Fire, with its massive player base, and Konoha, which had the top spender on the leaderboard, couldn't withstand the terrifying army!

Even with organized resistance... they still fell.

On this day.

The ninja world finally witnessed... the terror of being dominated by the White Zetsu.
