Even Tsunade, the bespectacled woman, couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
"Aoki's strength is truly becoming more and more monstrous!"
"Every time I see him, he exceeds my imagination."
Kakashi, Minato, and the others also expressed their amazement one after another.
They were all astonished by Aoki's power!
At every Hokage Summit,
Aoki consistently ranked first in the world.
And it wasn't without reason!
The most surprised among them
was Naruto, who had just joined.
Although the others were also amazed,
they more or less understood in their hearts
that Aoki's strength could simply be described with the word "monster."
As for Naruto,
he had never expected any of this.
To him,
Aoki was the most mysterious person here.
He was very familiar with all the other Hokages present,
having interacted with each of them.
Only Aoki was someone he had never met before.
Therefore, the formidable strength Aoki displayed
left him inexplicably shocked!
Facing the utterly astonished gazes of everyone present,
Aoki simply smiled without saying a word.
He felt he was already being quite low-key.
Earlier, he had merely thrown three ordinary punches.
And that was the result of him holding back.
Otherwise,
with his current, almost perversely powerful strength,
if he had truly fought seriously,
Tsunade would have been in great danger!
After the minor skirmish ended,
everyone gradually calmed down.
They all fell silent,
waiting for something to happen.
Although Naruto didn't know what was about to occur,
seeing how the others were behaving, he wisely kept quiet.
Soon, the notification sound of the Chat Group rang out.
[The Myriad Worlds Function is about to activate!]
It's here!
Hearing this sound,
everyone's expressions turned excited.
The main event of this meeting had finally arrived.
[Each meeting will open a new world.]
[A Multiverse Mission will be issued. After completely finishing the tasks in this world, all of you will receive a large Point Reward.]
[Similarly, treasures obtained in other worlds can also be exchanged for points within the Chat Group!]
[During Multiverse Tasks, your respective worlds will remain static, waiting for you to return after completing the missions.]
[Note: If you die during a Multiverse Mission, the Naruto World you belong to will also be destroyed, and no further replenishment will be possible!]
Since a new Hokage had joined the meeting this time, the Chat Group thoughtfully explained the rules of the Multiverse Mission.
All the other Hokages were brimming with excitement, ready to set off.
Meanwhile, Aoki turned to Naruto and asked, "Naruto, what do you think? Do you want to participate?"
As this was Naruto's first time attending such a meeting, the decision to join the Multiverse Task was entirely his own. The other Hokages didn't pressure him, as long as ten people were gathered, the Daily Mission could begin. Naruto's participation wasn't necessary for them to proceed.
After hearing Aoki's words, Naruto pondered briefly. He glanced around at the reactions of the others—whether it was his teacher Kakashi, Sasuke, or even his father—all were visibly excited and eager.
In his heart, Naruto made a decision. With his strength, what was there to fear?
"I'll join!" Naruto declared firmly.
Upon hearing his decision, the Hokages cheered excitedly.
"Great! Now we have everyone!"
"I'm so excited!"
"We've been waiting for half a year—I can hardly wait!"
"The last world we visited not only had simple tasks, but we also reaped huge rewards!"
"It was like a super affordable, high-quality vacation!"
"I wonder what kind of world we'll go to this time?"
Everyone spoke with anticipation.
The Pirate World they visited last time was fantastic! Each of them had gained plenty of valuable items and returned with a hefty amount of points.
This time, they wondered if it would be just as thrilling as before.
As they chatted curiously, a hint of concern lingered in their hearts. After all, a completely new world was no joke. If they lacked strength or weren't careful enough, something could go wrong.
Everyone silently reminded themselves to stay vigilant and not let their guard down in the new world.
Aoki chuckled, "I wonder which world we'll go to this time? I'm really looking forward to it!"
Meanwhile, Minato was explaining the detailed specifics to Naruto. For instance, once they entered the Multiverse Task, time in their own world would freeze. Upon completing the mission and returning successfully, they would earn a large number of points, which could be exchanged for numerous rewards in the shop. The benefits were plentiful.
Of course, there were downsides too. If someone died, not only would they perish, but their entire world would be destroyed as well.
Hearing this, Naruto showed no fear. Instead, his gaze grew even more determined.
"Don't worry, Dad! I'm not afraid! Even if there are dangers, I'll go. Because opportunities are waiting for me!"
Naruto's attitude brought smiles to everyone's faces.
Hashirama praised, "Well said, Naruto! That spirit is worthy of a Hokage!"
At that moment, the Chat Group's notification echoed through the Summit Space.
[Ding! Multiverse Mission activated!]
[World selection in progress!]
Everyone's attention focused, eagerly awaiting the details of the next world.
Soon, the new world they were about to enter would be revealed.
[Ding! World selection complete!]
[Otherworld: Soul Reaper World]
"Soul Reaper World?"
"What kind of world is this?"
"Never heard of it, but it doesn't sound easy to deal with!"
After seeing the newly selected otherworld, everyone was filled with confusion.
This world was probably not simple!
After all, it's called the "Soul Reaper" world. Matters related to life and death are no joking matter.
Regarding this, Aoki explained to everyone.
"The Zanpakutō you drew."
"And the Complete Kidō Compendium."
"These are all abilities from the Soul Reaper World!"
"This time, our luck is still decent."
"Our strength should be enough to handle the powerful beings in the Soul Reaper World!"
Hearing Aoki's explanation, everyone nodded in agreement.
Just then, the Chat Group's notification sound rang out once again.
[Mission Released!]
[Mission One: Defeat Ichigo Kurosaki.]
[Mission Two: Defeat Aizen, Yhwach, and Genryusai Shigekuni Yamamoto!]
[Mission Three: Completely defeat the three factions: the Soul Reapers, the Hollow Realm, and the Invisible Empire!]
After seeing the released missions, Aoki's expression couldn't help but change slightly.
Good grief.
Enemies with the whole world again?
Combined, these three missions basically required them to fight through all the factions in the entire Soul Reaper World!
