Chapter 4122 Mission

Chapter 4122 Mission
"Ozaki Naomichi? How could it be him?" Many viewers in the live chat expressed considerable surprise upon seeing Ozaki Naomichi.

"Who? Do you know him?" Some viewers who were unaware of the situation were clearly confused. Who was this person? Why didn't they recognize him?
"I thought that the top live streamers next door were a niche group, but I didn't expect so many people to know them."

"Just kidding, we have tens of millions of fans. Even though we don't do extreme sports, that doesn't stop us from watching."

Many comments started offering fragmented explanations, roughly describing the situation at Ozaki Straightway.

This is a contracted streamer on a specific live streaming platform, whose main content is extreme sports. His specialties are parachute rappelling and wingsuit flying.

Besides that, Ozaki Naomichi has tried almost everything related to extreme sports, including skiing, surfing, racing, and motorcycling. In short, he's a max-level online gamer.

Of course, his livestream became a hit not after the spiritual energy revival, but long before that, he had already become a top streamer with tens of millions of viewers due to his livestreams and videos of various extreme sports. Just like that viewer said before, although extreme athletes are a very niche group, there are many viewers. Even though most people don't actually go skydiving or diving, it doesn't stop people from watching.

So, as soon as Naomichi Ozaki revealed his identity, he was immediately recognized by a large number of viewers, confirming that it was indeed him.

However, what Naomichi Ozaki said left many people confused. Possessing a system? What did that mean? Was there something they didn't know?
Inside the helicopter cabin, everyone frowned upon hearing Naomichi Ozaki's words.

None of them recognized Ozaki Naomichi, nor did they know he was a streamer. They only understood that he had come to stop them, and as they had assumed, he was an enemy, not a friend.

"So... what exactly are you trying to stop?" He Xinchangping suddenly asked. Indeed, this was clearly a very important question.

The fact that the other party was able to get on this flying helicopter clearly means they are not an ordinary person; they must also be an Awakened One.

If it's just a superficial reaction—seeing the live stream and thinking they're kidnappers, then wanting to be a hero and spontaneously coming to rescue them—that's easier to understand. In other words, coming to stop their criminal activity isn't too difficult.

But if it's about stopping other things, then things get a bit more complicated. For example, preventing them from publicly revealing a newly created cultivation technique—that wouldn't be so simple.

This time, Naomichi Ozaki did not answer He Xinchangping, but looked directly at Takaoka Yunori: "Since you both have a system, you should understand that I am here on a mission. My mission... is to stop your live stream."

"So, you were in a hurry after all?" Takaoka Yūnori chuckled. "Until just now, I couldn't confirm whether I had truly succeeded in creating the technique, but your appearance proves that I really did succeed. Did the system itself contact you directly?"

"You're cutting off your own path to survival by doing this," Naomichi Ozaki said directly. "The system is our only power to fight against those invaders. Without the system, we'd be at their mercy. Don't you understand that?"

"Intruder? Who are you talking about? Linton?" Takaoka Yūnori asked directly.

“Yes, he is the leader of the invaders,” Naomichi Ozaki nodded. “They don’t belong to this world at all.” “Then what about this system?” Yūnori Takaoka asked directly.

"..." This question surprised Naomichi Ozaki for a moment.

"Clearly, you haven't thought about this question," Takaoka Yūnori said. "Although you act as if you're the only one who's sober while everyone else is drunk, and think we're all stupid, is that really the case? Just because the system says a few things, you think it's all right?"

“That’s not what I think,” Naomichi Ozaki immediately said.

“Really? Do you know? I’ve experienced despair twice.” Takaoka Yūnori suddenly said, “Both times, I was being hunted down by Linton. Because of the system’s ability, I was constantly going through a cycle of death both times. I can only say that there is nothing worse in this world.”

“So shouldn’t you be on our side even more?” Naomichi Ozaki said.

“Indeed, for a time I was quite grateful to this system. Without it, I might have died sometime later. Being targeted by someone like Linton, I'm lucky to still be alive,” Takaoka Yūnori said. “But after thinking about it carefully, I realized that someone as insignificant as me didn't even deserve to be targeted by Linton. The only reason he targeted me was because of this system.”

“You…you shouldn’t think like that. The one who’s wrong is Linton, he’s the one who’s been so reckless with human life, the system is just here to save you,” Naomichi Ozaki said, frowning.

“No, from the very beginning, the person Linton was targeting was the system. And the system, knowing this, kept dragging innocent people into this mess. In the end, we are just pawns of the system,” Takaoka Yūnori said. “From your tone just now, I sensed that you even felt some gratitude towards the system, which is… utterly ridiculous.”

“Your thinking is completely wrong,” Naomichi Ozaki sighed. “The system is just a power given to us. We should use this power to fight against the intruders. The kind of malice you’re talking about never existed in the first place.”

"Does it really not exist?" Takaoka Yūnori smiled. "Then I only need you to answer one question for me now."

"What?" Naomichi Ozaki asked.

"You just said you're here to stop me, right?" Takaoka Yunori said. "Then answer me, how do you plan to stop me? Or rather, what exactly is the mission the system gave you to stop me?"

"..." Suddenly, Naoki Ozaki was speechless.

"Looks like you can't answer this, right?" Takaoka Yūnori had a knowing look on his face. "It's okay, if you can't answer, I can answer this question for you. The way to stop me is... to kill me, right?"

"What?" Akiyama Shunsuke, who was standing next to him, was completely stunned. Just a moment ago, he had thought that Ozaki Naomichi might be a good person, and that he had just accepted a system mission. Now, upon hearing this, he was dumbfounded.

“Your silence proves I’m right. Your mission isn’t to stop me, it’s to kill me, right?” Takaoka Yūnori said, looking at the silent Ozaki Naomichi. “After all, this technique is now in my mind, so the system must be really anxious, right? So, stop pretending to be so high and mighty.”
