"Is this the Valley of the End?"

Taking advantage of the time Kisame had stalled, and encountering no further surprises, Sasuke hurried all the way and soon arrived at the Valley of the Gods.

Looking at this place, known to have been transformed from a plain into a valley through a fierce battle, Sasuke felt a hint of apprehension.

When Gensou had casually mentioned it before, it was a ray of hope in Sasuke's otherwise hopeless situation. But what about for Gensou?

Would he not care at all?

Would his desperate gamble yield the desired outcome?

Sasuke clenched his fists, surveying the valley. Soon, his gaze locked onto the figure atop the "Hashirama" statue.

He let out a slight sigh of relief, grateful that things hadn't taken a turn for the worse.

With a few leaps, Sasuke, whose rock-climbing skills could put experts to shame, swiftly reached the top of the statue. He respectfully addressed the man whose presence felt even more imposing than the last time they met.

"As you see, I have arrived," he said with rare reverence.

Gensou turned his head and nodded calmly. "Your determination is commendable."

Not everyone has the guts to become a rogue ninja. Even though Sasuke was driven by hatred, his willingness to forsake everything was praiseworthy.

If Gensou had initially taken a casual approach, he now didn't mind taking Sasuke under his wing.

After all, he wasn't interested in Sasuke's body like Orochimaru was. At worst, it wouldn't end as badly as it did for Orochimaru.

And in terms of potential gains, as the reincarnation of Indra, Sasuke's value would undoubtedly exceed the investment.

Of course, to be cautious, Gensou would ensure Sasuke had an unexpected bond.

"Do you need to say goodbye to your comrades?" Gensou asked, glancing in the direction Sasuke had come from.

As soon as he finished speaking, loud shouts echoed from that direction.

"Sasuke! Sasuke!"

Sasuke turned back to see Naruto's bright yellow figure swiftly approaching.

"No need," Sasuke replied calmly. "The childish ninja games end here."

"Games? What isn't a game in this world?" Gensou remarked lightly. Placing a hand on Sasuke's shoulder, he said, "Let's go."

A gust of wind blew through, and in a swirl of falling leaves, the figures of Gensou and Sasuke vanished.

Naruto, who had just entered the valley, looked up and saw only the last glimpse of Sasuke and Gensou disappearing.

Reaching out in vain, he shouted with all his might, "Sasuke!!"

"I will take you back from Gensou!!"

His loud vow echoed through the Valley of the End.

"Am I too late?" Kakashi, arriving just seconds behind, saw Naruto's sorrowful and determined shout and sighed inwardly.

He had known that Sasuke carried a deep burden of vengeance, but he hadn't expected him to be so resolute.

"From Naruto's words, it seems Sasuke has followed Gensou. The intelligence was correct," Kakashi thought.

"Hagoromo Gensou..."

He was a figure even more troublesome than Itachi.

Recalling the scene where Gensou effortlessly broke through his Chidori, Kakashi furrowed his brow.

Trouble seemed to be brewing.

"Sand Waterfall Imperial Funeral!"

A massive wave of sand surged from the ground, turning a hundred meters of forest into a desert in an instant.

With Gaara's move, the battle was nearing its end.

The combined force of the Twelve Guardian Ninja and the Sand Ninja, including the One-Tail Jinchuriki, had beaten the Sound Four into retreat, despite their cursed seal state two.

"It's time to end this once and for all!"

In his clan's secret jutsu, Man-Beast Transformation, Kiba, now a two-headed wolf, charged ferociously to deliver the final blow.

Shikamaru, whose chakra was almost depleted, didn't stop him. In his view, the outcome was already decided.

But in the next second, an unexpected event occurred.

As Kiba, transformed into a two-headed wolf, charged forward, he was suddenly sent flying

back, breaking his secret jutsu and rendering him and Akamaru unconscious, lying exposed to

everyone.

"What just happened?"

Shikamaru's eyes widened, and before he could react, a shadow moved swiftly, striking him

down.

"Is that... Sakon?" Shikamaru recognized the attacker just before losing consciousness, confusion etched on his face.

How had someone on the verge of defeat suddenly gained such speed?

Sakon, uninterested in explanations, kicked the weakened Chouji towards Gaara. Hearing the mission completion sound in his mind, he swiftly fled the forest.

As the shadow clone dispersed, the real Sakon, who had just woken up nearby, was confused about how he had ended up there.

But realizing he had somehow escaped, he didn't dwell on it. Without considering his brother

Ukon, still on the battlefield, he chose to flee.

However, before he could get far, he heard the clear sound of a bell.

"Today's luck is indeed good; another prey has come to me."

Kisame looked up, pleased with the sight of the panicked Sakon running towards him.

The one who had knocked out Kiba, Shikamaru, and Chouji was, of course, Gensou.

More precisely, it was his shadow clone.

Although he had been posing atop the statue in the Valley of the End, Gensou hadn't forgotten

the new mission issued by the system.

To that end, he had sent out a shadow clone, which had taken the necessary actions.

As for disguising himself as Sakon?

Aside from Sakon conveniently passing out nearby, Gensou didn't want rumors of him attacking young genin spreading across the ninja world.

The plan went smoothly.

As he hurried with Sasuke, Gensou reviewed the memories sent back by his shadow clone and

focused on the system.

Ding! Main Mission: Become the Boss of the Skipping Class Four (Completed)

Congratulations to the host for defeating the Skipping Class Four, taking a big step towards

dominating the Ninja Academy.

Mission Reward: Standard Chunin Level Chakra; Konoha Style Kenjutsu - Crescent Moon

Dance

This time, the mission reward wasn't disappointing.

Feeling the infusion of chakra slightly more substantial than the barely noticeable genin

level, and noticing the Konoha-style kenjutsu, Crescent Moon Dance, imprinting in his mind,

Gensou nodded slightly.

Fairly speaking, if using the system's criteria, the above rewards would have significantly

boosted his strength during his time in the ninja academy.

But having traveled decades ahead, the system's early rewards no longer held much appeal.

The only option was to speed up the process.

"System, is there a new main mission?" Gensou asked.

This time, the system responded promptly.

Soon, the familiar Ding! sounded in his mind.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
