Chapter 105 Tanabata Street truly lives up to its reputation as the number one entertainment city in

Chapter 107 Tanabata Street truly lives up to its reputation as the number one entertainment city in the Land of Fire.

"Surrender, is that it? Hand over the three coded signals you have!" Akaishi said directly—acting as if he hadn't exhausted his ninjutsu, but had deliberately stopped because he heard them begging for mercy.

Although the three from Hoshigakure didn't believe it, judging from Akaishi's vigorous voice, they could at least tell that this Uchiha was far from exhausted.

"We—don't have three codes," Red said immediately.

"Hand over all three codes and you can leave. If you miss one, one of you will be left behind!" Akashi said directly.

The three Star Ninja then realized that the opponent was only showing two people, which meant—

There might be someone lying in ambush nearby!

These Konoha ninjas are so strong, yet they are so cautious—not only did they set traps to ambush us long ago, but they also kept someone in the shadows ready to strike.

"We only have two codes, one received and one intercepted. If you want them—"

Firefly was interrupted halfway through her speech by the sound of Lanwu's whip.

"Don't rush to give the code. Who are you planning to abandon?" Lan Wu asked directly.

Seeing that the Konoha ninjas were very serious, especially since one of them was an Uchiha, Akara paused for a moment before saying, "Wait, wait—we're going to Tanabata Street for a mission to receive a coded message. You can come with us; we'll give you the message too!"

"Red—" Firefly wanted to stop Red, but he had already spoken.

This also served as a reminder to Akaishi and Lanwu.

Whether receiving or passing a code, you really can't let your guard down. Even though the rules don't allow temporarily matched teammates to attack each other, these temporarily matched teammates might bring other people with them!

"You're here to receive the ciphers? Hand over the two ciphers you know!" Akaishi said sternly.

Left with no other choice, the firefly had to hand over the coded message.

After Akashi took out a scroll and recorded the information, the Star Ninja Team's intercepted code disappeared, and their reception points decreased by 1.

"So, you're going to Tanabata Street to receive the code? How do you make contact?" Akaishi asked with a hint of anticipation.

"Midnight—meet at the clock tower. The code for verifying identities at the meeting is—"

Firefly was halfway through her sentence when Red Stone interrupted, "Ten gambling chips?"

"How did you know?" Firefly was taken aback.

The three Star Ninjas were immediately overjoyed, but then—they were filled with resentment.

Clearly, they had already guessed it —

"Haha, that's perfect! You don't need to go. Just write down the code here and you can leave!" Akashi said, patting his chest.

That's right, as soon as Akashi heard the word "connection," he realized that the two teams were "teammates" this time!

"You—are you—not allowed to attack us?" Akashi's face turned red.

"I didn't know before, and since no one stopped me, it's not a foul!" Akaishi said righteously.

Logically, teammates who receive and transmit data shouldn't be able to attack each other, but—

If you don't know the rules and happen to attack each other, it's obviously not considered a foul; it's just to prevent someone from deliberately launching a sneak attack when you bump into each other.

As for the fact that a fight broke out when no one knew about it, that's purely coincidental. If it were really going to happen, someone would have already stepped in.

The three Star Ninjas were unable to refute this for a moment.

Akashi had clearly thought of this beforehand, and even made them hand over the code first—otherwise, if they knew in advance that they were teammates in this match, it would be difficult to use violence against them within the next 24 hours, and the Star Ninja could simply leave!

As Akaishi watched them write the code on the scroll, a transmission integral appeared on Akaishi's scroll as well.

The contact method is only for them to verify their identity. If they don't verify it properly, the other party might be from another team pretending to be trying to trick them into giving information or codes.

However, if the identity is confirmed by other means, it is not necessary to meet in the given manner; as long as the code is sent to the correct reel, it is fine.

Right now, Akashi is clearly not worried that these Star Ninjas are liars. One reason is that they have revealed their contact method, but more importantly—they are right under Akashi's nose right now. If Akashi writes it down and then deducts points, they will definitely be eliminated on the spot!

"You guys are really lucky to have run into us halfway through your journey—receiving points is extremely rare!" Akaishi congratulated them.

The three Star Ninjas: ————

"You haven't even thanked me yet," Akaishi reminded him.

Upon hearing this, Aka wanted to curse—after all, Akaishi couldn't attack them anymore, but—

"Thank you so much—" Xia Ri said through gritted teeth.

After all, there are still 12 days until the preliminary test, and the "safe period" is only 24 hours!

Who knows, we might meet again someday.

"Our next mission is to End Valley, do you want to come along?" Akaishi asked with a smile.

"No need, let's go somewhere else."

After Firefly finished speaking, the three Star Ninja, who had luckily completed their mission, immediately headed east.

It's nowhere to the east.

Akashi guessed that they dared not reveal the location of their next mission and wanted to get away from Konoha genin while the "safe period" was still there.

As for Akaishi and Lanwu—

"What kind of illusion did you use? It was exposed way too quickly!" Lan Wu complained.

"What can we use? If we're going to use some kind of platitude, we can only use the Sharingan's genjutsu," Akaishi said matter-of-factly.

Standardized illusions make it difficult to create specific illusions.

For example, "Fox Mind Technique" only makes people feel lost, "This Is Not the Technique" only makes people misjudge their location, and "Naraku Sight Technique" only instills fear in the target.

As for using these illusions to trap a target in a specific "plot," it is almost impossible to do so unless one's mastery of illusions is so profound that one can perhaps follow the inherent nature of illusions, guide specific illusionary effects, and present a certain "plot."

However, among the Sharingan genjutsu, there is a special genjutsu called "Dreamweaver" that makes people fall into a pre-woven plot. This is why Akaishi felt that he had a great advantage in this test.

However, after actually using it, Akashi found that it was still very difficult.

Because this type of illusion can be broken as long as the target disrupts their chakra, one can only guide it according to the situation and not be too "out of character" to avoid alerting the target.

Akaishi also wanted to make the target lose themselves in the illusion, just like "immersion," so that they couldn't get rid of it even if they knew it was fake—but it was impossible. In Akaishi's common sense, no illusion could do that.

Therefore, the "dream weaving" that creates illusions requires a high level of mastery of illusion techniques.

The method I used on the three Star Ninjas just now only allowed them to see or hear a teammate interacting with them. There were no other people around who needed to be shown in the illusion, so it was easier.

But even so—

The other two had no idea about the code, and when Akaishi wanted to give the leader, Firefly, a little stimulation, he could only simulate various mosaics and holy light because he had never experienced stimulation before!

Not only is Akaishi not particularly exciting in reality, but even in the "immersive" experience, such exciting scenes are often obscured by various eerie blocks or mysterious lights.

As for obscene books and the like, with the Security Department there, they simply won't appear in Konoha!

Akaishi couldn't create illusions that he hadn't seen before and had no reference points for, so he was instantly exposed by Hotaru.

"As expected, normally we shouldn't see any strange blocks or odd lights—" Akaishi confirmed this.

"What did you say?" Lan Wu asked.

"Ahem, it's nothing—the next mission is good, it's a mission to receive information, and it's even in Tanabata Street." Akaishi changed his tune—of course, what he told Hoshinobi before was a lie.

Although the quest has been refreshed, the direction of travel does not need to be changed; continue heading towards Tanzaku Town.

By this time, it was already completely bright, and Akaishi and Ranmai continued their journey, arriving at Tansaku Town that afternoon.

Even more bustling than the Flower Capital, you can see people and cars coming and going just as you approach Tanabata Street.

"Tanpaku-gai, truly lives up to its reputation as the number one entertainment city in the Land of Fire!" Akaishi exclaimed.

"That's what makes it troublesome—" Lan Wu said with a serious expression.

The task that Akashi and Lanwu received at this time was to be the receivers, and the way to make contact was to gamble with dice at the "Oru Casino" in Tanabata Street. After the messenger placed three threes in a row, the receiver placed eighteen one three times to confirm the identities of both parties.

The problem lies in this connector type!

"What was that San-toku thinking? As a secret code, it's certainly not easy to be accidentally triggered, but it's too conspicuous," Akaishi complained as well.

Since the other party wasn't here, in Akaishi's words, "Santoku Jonin" was directly downgraded to "that Santoku".

Lan Wu was already used to this, after all, it wasn't a new thing for the Uchiha to be rude behind people's backs, even though Uchiha Madara was still referred to as "that Uchiha Madara" by Akaishi.

Anyway, in front of her, Akaishi still addressed her as "Lord Tobirama" and "Lord Hashirama" repeatedly, while Lanwu pretended not to hear the rest.

Akaishi's worries are exactly what Lanwu is worried about.

This casino is a gambling den that specializes in dice games. These games usually involve three dice – first, someone bets three times in a row that all result in 1s, and then someone bets three times that all result in 6s.

If no third party sees them, that's fine, but if any other squad of ninjas happens to see them, they will notice!

"If we're discovered, we'll definitely be followed and interfered with." Lan Wu was also worried about this.

"I'm not afraid of being followed or interfered with, I'm more afraid of someone going down with me!" Akaishi was more worried about this.

Unlike the Valley of the End, as Santoku mentioned before, there is a protective force in Tanabata Street. These genin are simulating delivering classified information on enemy territory, and they will be "besieged" if they are discovered.

"It's only the second day, there's no need to give up so quickly—" Lan Wu was slightly more optimistic, but still said, "But we should try to use shadow clones to make contact when the time comes."
