Chapter 157 - NFLS: Chapter 157

"Goo goo..."

A cute chubby figure slowly separated from Gengetsu Hōzuki. This was the Vapor Style—Exploding Clone! An explosion clone made of oil on the outside and water on the inside!

"Die!" The cute chibi Gengetsu moved with astonishing speed. Even Aoi Ren, empowered by both modes, couldn't widen the gap. With a gentle swing of his sharp arm blade, he cut dozens of trees in half...

Both in strength and speed, it was far superior to its portrayal in the anime. The gap between Edo Tensei and living power had already been witnessed by the Gold and Silver Brothers!

Seeing the little chubby figure made of oil and water growing larger and larger, Aoi Ren couldn't help but shake his head slightly: "Second Mizukage, truly not a simple opponent!"

However...

Aoi Ren smiled and took out his drawing board. In a few seconds, a sudden blizzard appeared, covering the entire valley. Controlling the weather was too easy for Yakumo Kurama's talent!

The blizzard stopped the Vapor Style clone's heat from increasing, breaking the cycle of alternating hot and cold explosions...

"What's going on?"

Gengetsu Hōzuki was going mad. He didn't understand why a clear sky would suddenly turn into a blizzard!

"You lost!"

Aoi Ren stood in front of Gengetsu Hōzuki, sneering coldly: "As agreed, you must immediately withdraw the Hidden Mist ninjas from the front lines and stop the war with Konoha!"

"..." After a long silence, Gengetsu Hōzuki laughed heartily: "Yes, I lost. Today's young people are truly amazing!"

Unexpectedly, Gengetsu Hōzuki was very calm about his defeat and stated that he would definitely withdraw the Hidden Mist ninjas from the battlefield.

However, others were not so magnanimous...

"Damn it, the Mizukage-sama actually lost!" "What should we do now?" "No matter what, we can't let this brat return to Konoha, or our Hidden Mist will be utterly disgraced!"

Discussions rippled through the Hidden Mist. Aoi Ren could feel many ill-intentioned gazes. However, since Deidara could single-handedly capture Gaara from the Sand Village, Aoi Ren was confident that he could leave the Hidden Mist safely after defeating Gengetsu Hōzuki!

The atmosphere at the scene grew increasingly tense. The surrounding Hidden Mist ninjas were restless, ready to pounce and dismember Aoi Ren at any moment.

However, at this critical juncture, Gengetsu Hōzuki smiled and beckoned to Aoi Ren: "It's been a long time since I've lost so convincingly. Would you like to have a drink?"

"Of course!"

Knowing that Gengetsu Hōzuki was helping him out of a difficult situation, Aoi Ren naturally wouldn't refuse.

Ten minutes later, looking at the milky white liquid in the cup, Aoi Ren couldn't help but grin: "But, why is it milk?"

"Hahaha!" Gengetsu Hōzuki laughed heartily: "Children can't drink alcohol!"

That night, the hosts and guests enjoyed themselves. When the banquet ended, Gengetsu Hōzuki collapsed in front of Aoi Ren and whispered: "Brat, escape quickly. My subordinates won't let you go!"

Hearing this, Aoi Ren smiled slightly and walked back to the guest room. Of course, he knew these guys wouldn't let him go...

But simply escaping was not his style!

Peace Talks Mission Completed: Obtained one Shadow-level Treasure Chest, Ten Thousand Points. Defeated Gengetsu Hōzuki Mission Completed: Obtained one Shadow-level Treasure Chest, Five Thousand Points.

"Open the chest!"

Beginner Random Training Scroll, Beginner Random Training Scroll, Kaguya Otsutsuki's foot wraps. Taking out the foot wraps that seemed to still carry a faint strange odor, Aoi Ren was speechless: What a bizarre item to obtain!

However, putting that aside...

"Ding, detected two identical items, they can be fused!"

"Is it a training scroll?" Aoi Ren frowned. The constant appearance of Beginner Random Training Scrolls had puzzled him. It seemed the change was here...

"Fuse!"

Two dim Beginner Random Training Scrolls melted into two pools of silver liquid, which slowly solidified into a shimmering silver metal scroll: Intermediate Naruto Training Scroll.

What was the change between Beginner and Intermediate?

Aoi Ren slowly unrolled the scroll, but strangely, Aoi Ren was not directly sucked into another dimension by the scroll. Instead, clear paintings appeared one after another.

The Scroll of Zabuza and Haku, the Scroll of Orochimaru's Invasion of Konoha. The entire storyline of Naruto was laid out on the scroll, but it was divided by the furthest plot Aoi Ren had reached. The subsequent plot was dark, while the previous plot was bright...

It seemed that the bright areas could be chosen freely, while the dark areas yielded no reaction no matter how Aoi Ren touched them. The Intermediate Training Scroll offered a certain degree of freedom of choice!

"So, where should I go? Should it be the plot of Orochimaru's attack on Konoha, or the story of the Star Village?" Aoi Ren hesitated for a long time, then his eyes suddenly lit up: "I've decided, I'll go here!"

"Ding..."

The scroll emitted a faint glow, enveloping Aoi Ren...
