In Konoha, I collected corpses on the battlefield for ten years

#14 - Section 14

Opening the system panel revealed a human skin mask as thin as a cicada's wing. I brought up the item's attributes.

【Name: Hoshi's Obsession】

【Description: A Rock Ninja Chunin who infiltrated Konoha at the age of eight, remaining in the village for twenty-three years. In his final moments, he only wished to see Iwagakure one last time.】

【Effect: Perception +2 when worn. Can adjust facial features and structure. Remaining uses: 5/5】

【Note: The deceased is gone, their soul returns home. Hoshi wishes to be buried in the Land of Earth.】

Reading the description of the item, Qifeng fell silent.

He reached into his pocket, hesitated, but ultimately didn't take out a cigarette.

With a serious expression, he said to Hoshi's corpse, "If I have the chance, I will return you to the Land of Earth."

While alive, people can have conflicts due to differences in position, but once they are dead, they should return to dust.

As a skilled elite Chunin specializing in disguise, and a veteran infiltrator who had been in Konoha for twenty-three years, possessing such an item was barely justifiable.

After all, both the Transformation Technique and Orochimaru's Face Replacement Technique have chakra fluctuations, making it difficult to evade detection by sensory ninjas, let alone the Byakugan of the Hyuga clan.

However, this type of human skin mask, while not a perfect transformation, is actually easier for disguise.

In this way, Qifeng would have a way to conceal his identity for many actions he didn't want to expose.

Perhaps hearing his promise, the third corpse search went smoothly.

【Success! Obtained a Single Attribute Random +2 Enhancement Card!】

Without hesitation, he used it directly on himself.

【Ninjutsu +2!】

After looting this green corpse, it was finally time for the red corpse that Qifeng had been anticipating for so long.

Suppressing his excitement, he placed his hand on it.

【Red Corpse, 15% success rate. Do you want to loot the corpse? (This time 3/3, today 6/9)】

A 15% success rate!

The moment to test the luck of the Overlord of Europe had finally arrived!

【Yes!】

Chapter 8 Overlord of Europe (Seeking Collection and Recommendations)

【Failure!】

Looking at the bright red words, Qifeng took a deep breath.

"Stay calm, a 15% success rate is normal."

Any normal person wouldn't succeed on the first try with a 15% probability. This isn't just a matter of probability, but also a crucial matter of luck.

"Or... if I have the chance, I'll send your body back to the Land of Earth too? If Konoha allows it."

Qifeng squatted there, trying to bargain with a corpse.

Easy to talk to, right?

After saying nice things for over ten minutes, he placed his sweaty palm on it again and tried again.

【Success! Obtained Iwagakure Jonin Akagi Tsukasa Experience Card (Rare)!】

It worked!

Qifeng waved his hand excitedly.

"Thank Buddha! Thank God! Thank you, Six Paths Sage!"

Using up a Jonin experience card and getting back a quasi-Kage experience card, plus "Hoshi's Obsession" and a single attribute +2 enhancement card.

This wasn't a loss.

No, this was a huge profit!

"Indeed, corpses should be treated with respect. If you communicate with them properly, they can understand."

Qifeng felt that he had grasped the key to looting corpses.

If you respect the other party, even if it's just a corpse, they will give a corresponding response. This might just be a coincidence, just his imagination.

But he wouldn't lose anything by taking that extra step.

What if it was real?

This result strengthened his attitude towards every corpse he encountered, and his actions to help these deceased who had obsessions but were unable to fulfill them.

Give and take, with a clear conscience.

He succeeded directly on the second try, so it didn't matter whether the third try succeeded or not. Anyway, he wasn't at a loss anymore.

But sometimes, Murphy's Law isn't just useful on Earth. In this Naruto world, the influence of the great Murphy is also present.

【Success! Obtained Earth Style Chakra Enhancement Card!】

Huh?

There's more?!

Looking at the gorgeous red card depicting magnificent rocks, quietly lying in the system, Qifeng blinked.

A 15% probability, succeeding twice!

He just wanted to ask.

Who else is there!

The Overlord of Europe bloodline has been identified!

Sit down, sit down, standard procedure, standard procedure.
