Chapter 45: The Kunoichi Village's Waste of Heavenly Treasures

After multiple upgrades, Fate Redemption had advanced to Purple quality, extending the duration of the Lucky King state to 3 minutes and increasing Luck attribute by 4 points during that time.

Not only that, Su Xiao's own Luck attribute was 2 points, and with the equipment effect of Fate Redemption, "3 Strong Luck (Passive)," his Luck attribute was further increased by 1 point.

With all this accumulated, after activating the Lucky King state, Su Xiao's Luck attribute reached 7 points. For a Luck attribute, this value was already astonishing. If it could be maintained for a long time, fighting with these 7 Luck points would be no problem. Su Xiao had seen someone use their Luck attribute in combat, and it was very strong.

With a full three minutes available and four treasure chests to open, time was ample. Su Xiao planned to start with the Dark Purple chest dropped by Terumi Mei, then proceed from the Light Gold, Gold, and Legendary chests, from lowest to highest quality.

In this not-so-large room, Su Xiao wasn't alone. Bubu Wang and Amu were both present. As for Karin, she was recovering from her injuries in the next room.

Bubu Wang was always interested in opening treasure chests. Every time Su Xiao opened one, this guy would maintain a safe distance. This stemmed from a time when Su Xiao had particularly "bad luck," and Bubu Wang let out a "Wang" of mockery, after which Su Xiao educated him with a large slipper. The education was severe.

Su Xiao took a deep breath and directly opened the Dark Purple chest.

[You have opened the chest (Dark Purple).]
[You have obtained 7,800 Paradise Coins.]
[You have obtained 3,600 Paradise Coins.]
[You have obtained Water Release Ninjutsu Scroll: C-Rank ~ B-Rank (Dark Purple).]

Introduction: A scroll recording dozens of Water Release ninjutsu.
Selling Price: 79,500 Paradise Coins.

...

Su Xiao held a very thick ninjutsu scroll in his hand. The value of this item was somewhat difficult to estimate. If it recorded C-Rank to A-Rank Water Release ninjutsu, then this item would be priceless.

As for C-Rank to B-Rank, this item was more suitable for Second Rank contractors. Many contractors specialized in the chakra system. If he sold this to them, he could definitely fetch a good price.

Putting the ninjutsu scroll away, the overall harvest was decent. If this item met a sucker, it could sell for hundreds of thousands of Paradise Coins without issue.

Su Xiao picked up the Light Gold chest dropped by Darui. Darui's combat performance wasn't particularly impressive, and given his identity as the Raikage's guard, Su Xiao didn't have high expectations for this chest.

Opening the Light Gold chest, Su Xiao silently prayed that it wouldn't flash. If it had to flash, let it be saved for the final Legendary chest. If the Legendary chest flashed, that would be a fortune.

[You have opened the chest (Light Gold).]
[You have obtained 9,800 Paradise Coins.]
[You have obtained Ranche.]
[You have obtained 8,700 Paradise Coins.]
[You have obtained 3,600 Paradise Coins.]
[You have obtained 5,000 Paradise Coins.]

...

Seeing this series of prompts, Su Xiao was stunned. At first glance, it seemed like a large amount of Paradise Coins had been obtained, but upon closer inspection, something strange was mixed in among the Paradise Coins.

Introduction: A weapon forged at great expense by the Hidden Cloud Village for Jonin Darui.
Selling Price: 97,000 Paradise Coins.

...

The heavy blade once used by Darui appeared in Su Xiao's hand. This item was quite heavy and extremely expensive. Heaven knows where the Hidden Cloud Village got such a large piece of Chakra Conductive Metal.

Chakra Conductive Metal from the Naruto World was undoubtedly the most expensive metal in that world, bar none. Other metals could also conduct chakra, but they would have significant resistance, causing a large amount of chakra to be lost during conduction, greatly increasing chakra consumption.

Chakra Conductive Metal was different. Its resistance to chakra was almost zero, and the loss rate was negligible.

Under normal circumstances, Su Xiao obtaining a Light Gold quality blade weapon would definitely become "food" for Dragon-Slaying Flash. But this time was different. Su Xiao would not "feed" this blade to Dragon-Slaying Flash.

Su Xiao wasn't planning to keep this blade. He intended to melt it down, extract the Chakra Conductive Metal inside, and then sell it.

Compared to the skilled workers in Reincarnation Paradise who specialized in forging, the craftsmen of the Hidden Cloud Village were a complete bunch of trash. With such a large piece of Chakra Conductive Metal, they actually forged it into a heavy blade.

Of course, this might have something to do with Darui's status as the Raikage's successor. Thinking about it that way, carrying such a blade wasn't strange.

No, Darui wasn't just carrying a blade; he was carrying a gold mine on his back every day. If Su Xiao melted this blade and sold the Chakra Conductive Metal, then Dragon-Slaying Flash could hope to advance to Light Gold quality.

This amount of Chakra Conductive Metal could easily be exchanged for several Light Gold weapons. As long as Su Xiao put out the word, many contractors specializing in chakra abilities would come knocking.

Thinking about this, Su Xiao was in a good mood. The Lucky King state hadn't disappointed him. The two chests he had opened so far were the lowest quality ones. There was still a Gold chest and a Legendary chest waiting for him to open.

Carefully putting away [Ranche], Dragon-Slashing Flash's advancement to Gold quality would depend on this item.

Neither the Dark Purple chest nor the Light Gold chest had disappointed Su Xiao. His gaze fell on the Gold chest on the bed. This was the chest dropped by Hozuki Zangetsu.

Thinking of Hozuki Zangetsu, Su Xiao couldn't help but recall a ninjutsu: Steam Imp.

If he could get Steam Imp from Hozuki Zangetsu's chest, that would be a windfall. Any contractor specializing in chakra would sell everything they had to buy Steam Imp, especially since this was Hozuki Zangetsu's improved version of Steam Imp. Su Xiao had nearly died from this technique.
