Naruto, this game world seems a bit real.

Chapter 261 An Unexpected Joy

Chapter 261 An Unexpected Joy

"This is it. She doesn't believe Kakashi can find it again." Mo Shuang used her spiritual power to set up a barrier and breathed a sigh of relief.

Ye Li received the message from Mo Shuang and tapped the '+' button on the character panel indicating strength. Instantly, the clear, cloudless sky became overcast, with lightning flashing intermittently.

"My God...she should be alright this time, right?" Ye Li swallowed hard, genuinely uncertain.

She summoned the sword within her body and held it in her hand, giving herself a sense of security.

"A..."

"Two..."

"Three..."

Ye Li had lost count of how many times he had been struck, but fortunately it was all within a controllable range, since most of the lightning was absorbed by the sword in his hand.

She tended to her wounds, then looked up at the sky. The clouds were growing thicker, as if brewing something, and occasionally purple lightning could be seen streaking through them.

"This can't be for real, right?!"

Ye Li gripped the sword tightly, but the sword suddenly slipped from her hand and returned to her body, remaining unresponsive no matter how she called out to it.

"Don't play like that!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than purple lightning struck down without warning.

Ye Li didn't feel any physical pain, but his soul felt as if it was being torn apart.

"This...this is a tribulation of lightning targeting the soul?"

She had just recovered when the second bolt of purple lightning struck.

"what!"

Ye Li clutched her head, her face contorted in pain. She felt as if her soul was about to leave her body.

"No... even if I'm leaving this game, this isn't how I should leave."

She endured the pain and sat up to meditate and circulate her energy. Although she didn't know if it would work, it was better than waiting to die.

Fortunately, it did help somewhat, and the tearing sensation was temporarily relieved.

After enduring three more lightning strikes, the method gradually lost its effectiveness. Then another bolt of lightning struck, and Ye Li instantly collapsed to the ground. She could even see her soul about to leave her body.

"No!" Ye Li roared, and his soul returned to his body.

She seemed to understand something; as long as one's willpower was strong enough, there was a way to get through it.

Two more bolts of lightning struck in quick succession, but Ye Li managed to withstand them through sheer willpower, feeling as if he were floating on air.

With her last remaining consciousness, she opened her eyelids and glanced at the sky, only to find that the tribulation was not over yet.

"Itachi, I'm so sorry... I can't say goodbye to you." Her mouth opened and closed, and then she fainted.

All the spirit clones' bodies became transparent.

Kakashi broke through Mo Shuang's barrier and witnessed this scene.

In the past, he would never have been able to break the barrier. But ever since Ye Li swapped his blood with Kakashi's, he had already transformed Kakashi's Sharingan into the Mangekyou Sharingan ahead of schedule.

"Mo Shuang, what exactly is going on?" He reached out his hand, but it passed right through him.

"Kakashi, with your intelligence, you should have guessed it long ago!"

“I am a part of her, but Ye Li hasn’t realized it yet. Every time I separate from her, some of her emotions are taken away and her memories are weakened.”

"But I have vanished, and all of this will be returned to me, along with all the memories I have experienced."

"So that's it," Kakashi instantly understood why Ye Li had been so indifferent to him.

"Kakashi, remember to keep this a secret, or you'll be in trouble when I come out again." Mo Shuang's body was becoming increasingly transparent, and she didn't forget to give a warning.

Suddenly, her body slowly solidified again. "Hmm... what's going on?"

The first thing to do after recovering her body was, of course, to restrain Kakashi. "I'm sorry, I can't let you go back to Konoha, Kakashi," Mo Shuang said bluntly, crossing her arms.

After she finished speaking, she placed her hand on Kakashi and cast a sealing jutsu on him. Kakashi did not resist at all.

"Not all of them are her; she herself is getting stuck on a rut."

Kakashi never wanted to leave, so it was fine for him to stay by her side.

Unaware of his thoughts, Mo Shuang blindfolded Kaka Simon and took him back to his residence in 'Hidden Mist Village'.

"What exactly is the purpose of your staying in Kirigakure?" Before Mo Shuang could speak upon arrival, Kakashi asked first.

"No comment." She glanced at him after saying that. "Don't even think about running away. You can't escape."

Before the warning could be finished, Mo Shuang was pulled in front of Kakashi.

"What are you doing!" she said, her expression completely unchanged.

Kakashi stared at her for a long while, then pulled her into his arms. "I missed you, so much..."

Just as Mo Shuang was about to speak, there was a knock on the door. "Sister, I'm back."

"Ranmaru, why did you suddenly come back?"

She instantly left Kakashi's embrace, pulling him to a room on the second floor. "Don't make a sound... don't come out..."

After she finished explaining, she had just turned around when Kakashi pulled her back into his arms. "If you want me to stay silent, you have to kiss me first."

Upon hearing this, Mo Shuang's cold face instantly cracked, and she gritted her teeth and said, "Kakashi, do you want to die?"

She had just clenched her fist when Kakashi lowered his head and kissed her. "It's the taste I've been longing for." He had only intended to ease his longing, but he couldn't help wanting more.

Mo Shuang was immediately dumbfounded. "How dare this guy? He must have been too lenient with him before."

Just as she was about to make her move, a voice came from downstairs, "Sister, I've come up to find you."

Mo Shuang nudged Kakashi, signaling him to let go quickly. As the footsteps on the stairs grew closer, her brows furrowed.

She wanted to teach Kakashi a lesson, but didn't want Ranmaru to know that Kakashi existed.

With a 'click', Kakashi reluctantly let go, only to be pushed into the wardrobe by Mo Shuang the next second.

Just as Ranmaru came in, she closed the wardrobe door.

"Lanwan, don't just go into girls' rooms. It's very impolite, understand?" Mo Shuang turned around and scolded.

"Sister, I'm sorry, I just couldn't wait to give this to you." Ranmaru held a crystal ball like a child who had made a mistake.

Mo Shuang stepped forward, took the item from his hand, and looked at it. "It's a very beautiful item. I like it very much."

"Thank you, Ranmaru."

After she finished speaking, she pinched his little face and smiled slightly.

"I'm glad you like it, sister." Ranmaru smiled happily upon seeing this.

Looking at that smiling face, Mo Shuang explained, "Oh, right, what my sister said earlier..."

Before she could finish speaking, Ranmaru interrupted, "Sister, I know you're doing this for my own good, I won't take it to heart."

The two went downstairs and chatted for a while, with Mo Shuang listening to Lan Wan talk about life in the medical department.

"Ranmaru, you're really great," Mo Shuang praised, then asked, "Ranmaru, how long will you stay at home this time?"

"Sister, besides bringing you these things, there's something else I want to tell you." Ranmaru glanced at Mo Shuang, pursed his lips, and continued, "Sister, I'm going on a mission with a team as a medical ninja, and I'll be leaving soon." He lowered his head further as he spoke.

"Ranmaru has grown up!" Mo Shuang rubbed his head and exclaimed, then said, "Here... take this, it's a talisman your sister gave you."

"Sister, aren't you angry with me?" Lanwan asked, taking the ice bracelet from Moshuang's hand and looking up.

"Why blame? People need to grow."

"Alright, don't keep your teammates waiting too long."

As Mo Shuang watched Ranmaru leave and closed the door, Kakashi hugged her from behind.

She was startled, and blue light instantly appeared on her hand as she prepared to use a ninjutsu. Kakashi grabbed her hand, and she was unable to use the ninjutsu.

"This is impossible!" she exclaimed in disbelief. "What...what did you do?"

Kakashi was prepared to be frozen, but this turned out to be a pleasant surprise.
