Chapter 107: Mission Accomplished, Want to Make a Bet?

  "You're really arrogant, so let me show you what a real ninja looks like." Looking at Meng Ling's icy expression, Aoi Midori immediately drew out a black-handled dagger, and in an instant, a golden blade flashed out from the handle.

  "Raijin Sword! I wonder how powerful it is, I'm really looking forward to it." Meng Ling looked at Aoi Midori who had already drawn out the Raijin Sword used by the Second Hokage in legend, and a layer of flames immediately appeared on her right fist. Apparently she was ready for battle.

  "You can die under the Thunder God Sword, it's your own honor. Don't worry, after I catch up with your companions, I'll definitely let them come and find you." Qing Leng said coldly.

  "You're really dull, aren't you? As a high-ranking ninja, you've ended up in this situation and yet you still have the nerve to be arrogant." Meng Ling said calmly, as the flames on her right hand grew even more intense. At the same time, a cold aura appeared on her left hand, with a chilly mist that occasionally dropped ice shards onto the ground, making crackling sounds.

  "The Elemental Fruits aren't just limited to controlling one element, as long as it's a substance that can be synthesized through chemical elements, I can control anything. Bring it on - Ice and Fire, Double Heaven!" Right in front of her was an excellent hostile 'test subject', Meng Ling naturally wouldn't let him off, especially since this person was also the one she hated the most, the so-called 'traitor'. Naturally, she wouldn't give him a good face either. Before taking back the Raijin sword and giving it to Minato, Meng Ling must thoroughly teach this self-proclaimed Jonin what the outcome of being a traitor should be."

  "What kind of ninjutsu is this again?" asked Kusa-nin, the three lower-ranking ninjas beside Aoigiri, in surprise.

  "It's just a small trick to scare people, nothing to worry about. In any case, a young and inexperienced kid like you is absolutely no match for me, who possesses the Thunder God Sword." said Qing Lü with an arrogant tone.

  "Correct me if I'm wrong, but this is indeed a small trick, not to scare you, but to... say hello!" Meng Ling said lightly, and the fire fist in her right hand immediately shot out a huge fireball towards Kui Qinglan.

  "What a joke, would this jutsu be useful to me, the Jonin?" Akane said disdainfully. The Raijin sword was raised, and Murei's fireball immediately split in two, while Akane walked slowly through the gap between the two fireballs. "After all, it's just a little devil."

  "You seem to be very confident in the Thunder God Sword in your hand, but I wonder how much of your strength will remain without it?" Just as Qing Lü was speaking disdainfully, Meng Ling's voice came from beside him. The next moment, Meng Ling's left hand, which had condensed into icy frost, pressed down on Qing Lü's right arm, which was holding the Thunder God Sword. Immediately after that, Qing Lü's right arm, which had been touched by Meng Ling's icy left hand, instantly turned into an ice stick, and the Thunder God Sword also fell to the ground with a clang.

  "You scoundrel, when exactly did you sneak up behind me?" Kui Lü Qing Lan hugged her right hand which had already frozen into an ice stick and gritted her teeth as she asked. It was clear that Meng Ling's left hand was approaching 'absolute zero'.

  "No need to answer me, but thanks anyway. I'll just confiscate the Thunder God Sword for now. Oh, by the way, as a side note, all the cells in your right hand have been frozen by me and are currently in a state of necrosis. If this state persists for too long, then all the cells in your entire body will become necrotic too." Dreaming picked up the Thunder God Sword from the ground and coldly said to Green Blue with a smile.

  "Despicable...... Ah!" Kōryoku Seiran, although a traitor, was still a high-ranking ninja. Upon hearing Mugen's words, he made a split-second decision and immediately cut off his own right arm with Kokū no Jutsu. The next moment, only his severed right arm could be seen crumbling into countless ice shards on the ground.

  "Hmm, cutting off your own right hand to prevent the ice poison from spreading throughout your body? That's indeed a good decision, but do you think that as a traitor of Konohagakure, you and those grass ninjas still have a chance to survive?" Meng Ling said coldly. At the same time, a golden light blade appeared on the Raijin sword in her hand. The next moment, Meng Ling's figure had already appeared behind Akane Kōryū, Aoika, and the three genin, over 100 meters away. However, including Akane Kōryū, the four of them were standing there as if they had been frozen in place, not moving at all. If it weren't for the sweat continuously dripping from their bodies, one would really think that the four of them were just some statues.

  "Alright, it's settled then. If this mission goes smoothly, I'll give the Raijin sword to Naru as a reward. But if those old codgers from Konoha come looking for trouble, I might just take this chance to teach them a lesson." With that thought, Mu Lin stored the Raijin sword in the Chaos Colored Jade and leapt into the air, disappearing into the distance...

  "Hmph……" Shortly after Meng Ling left, a small bloodstain appeared on the necks of Kui Lü Qing Lan and the three lower ninjas who were still standing in their original positions. The three people remained motionless until the waves washed over them, at which point they slowly fell to the ground.

  ————I am that gorgeous dividing line————

  With the help of Mugen's Spiral Accelerator, Idate's race wasn't as difficult as in the original story. On the second day, they arrived at the finish line early in the morning. After Mugen caught up, everyone had a big meal at Jirocho's mansion. In the afternoon, under Sakura's leadership, they started strolling around the town, planning to relax and unwind on this extra day. Mugen didn't object to this because he was also someone who couldn't stay still. When Mugen, Narutomaki, Sakura, and Sasuke arrived at the main street, they directly entered a barbecue restaurant. Although Mugen wasn't as good at eating as Denjiro, he was also a big eater. With his chaotic physique, Mugen's stomach would be like a bottomless pit, with food going in but never coming out.

  "Ah, this is fine." After finding a spot by the window, Meng and others sat down, sipping tea while waiting for the food to arrive.

  "Hmm, it's really relaxing to come here after a mission." Naruto said with his eyes narrowed in enjoyment.

  "Hmm, yeah, Naruto. You all did a good job on this mission. Looks like Kakashi-sensei is going to be in for a surprise, heh heh." Mei said with a smile.

  "Hehe, I wonder what Kakashi-sensei's disappointed face looks like." Naruto said with a smile.

  "This time, I'll know when I get back." Meng Ling said with a smile, her eyes already glancing out the window. At this moment, there were three people carrying bundles swaggering down the street. Meng Ling recognized them at a glance as the same three rascals who had eaten without paying and tried to start a fight before. However, this time, although they were still swaggering, they seemed much less arrogant than last time.

  Without a strong backing behind them, these people have also quieted down. This world is indeed realistic. Just as Meng was still thinking, the barbecue had arrived and everyone started eating.

  "Afternoon with nothing to do, can still come here to eat barbecue, ninja is really leisurely." At this time, Iida came over again with a wooden skewer in his mouth, just like last time.

  "Hey, you're eating a king's meal, you're also very leisurely today." Naruto said, not to be outdone.

  "You little brat, looking for trouble?" Idate immediately confronted Naruto after hearing his words.

  "Here you come, Naruto, you really can't stay still, wanting to exercise now?" asked Meng Ling faintly.

  "Hmm, and you, woman, last time during the mission, you actually left, are you a ninja or not? Why did you leave so directly?" Ida arrived in front of Meng Leng, staring at her face within five centimeters, asking.

  Silence...

  "Hey, don't get your face so close." Naruto yelled loudly from the side, but no one paid attention to him.

  "Super big idiot." Sasuke coolly said just one sentence.

  "What did you say? Want to fight?"

  "Ah, just what I wanted!"

  Then Sasuke and Naruto clashed.

  "It's actually nothing, because I think at that time it was no longer necessary for me to continue protecting you by your side. Moreover, Naruto and the others also need battles to train their abilities. Can this explanation be accepted?" Meng Ling ignored the confrontation between Naruto and Sasuke, eating roasted meat while calmly saying this.

  "Absolutely not, your previous actions completely violated the rules of the ninja, so you must give me an explanation." Idate said loudly.

  "Then say it, what should we do?" Meng Ling asked calmly.

  Iida: "Why don't you consider talking with me about the future..."

  Meng Ling: "No comment."

  "So let's make a bet, if you can win against me in my strong point, I'll grant you one thing, but if you lose, you have to grant me one thing. How about it, do you have the guts?" Ida asked boastfully.

  "What's going on?" Meng Ling raised her head and asked.

  "Ah, of course, anything is fine now." Ida said with a slightly red face.

  "Alright then, let's give it a try. Naruto, are you guys coming?" Meng Ling stood up and asked.

  "Alright, we'll be the judges." Although Naruto was usually slow-witted, he still caught a glimpse of Miren's - wicked smile when she stood up.
