Douluo Dalu: Stealing Through The Heavens

Suotuo City.

In the early morning, when the first ray of sunlight shone through the window into the guest room where Zuzong was staying.

After a night of training, Zuzong slightly opened his eyes and exhaled a breath of stale air.

These days, apart from participating in the Great Spirit Arena every night, Zuzong spent most of his time practicing body techniques, fighting skills, and kunai and shuriken throwing techniques.

For many years, Zuzong had frequented the Great Spirit Arena, using the power of his Sharingan to copy numerous combat techniques. Taking advantage of this leisure time, while teaching Xiao Wu and Ye Lingling, he also worked hard to integrate those techniques with his own body skills.

Zuzong's body techniques originated from Uchiha Itachi of the Naruto world and were not overly complicated. They focused on three words: fast, accurate, and ruthless, aiming for a one-hit kill. This was both Zuzong's strength and his weakness. The techniques were too simple, making it easy for others to target him. This was why Zuzong put so much effort into copying the fighting techniques of those in the Great Spirit Arena.

Unfortunately, the soul masters of the Douluo Continent relied too heavily on their martial souls, and Zuzong had not seen any particularly effective techniques so far. However, it wouldn't be long before Tang San and the others would return from hunting soul rings in the Star Dou Forest. At that time—hehe! He was really looking forward to seeing Tang San's surprised expression.

Thinking of this, a strange smile appeared on Zuzong's lips. Techniques like Controlling Crane and Catching Dragon, Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, and Mysterious Jade Hand were just advanced uses of soul power rather than true soul skills requiring a martial soul to perform. It shouldn't be too difficult to copy them.

It was worth mentioning that although Zuzong hadn't made much progress in improving his body techniques, he had managed to perform the Body Flicker Technique by controlling his soul power.

Zuzong's Body Flicker Technique also came from the Naruto world.

Although it consumed soul power, it fundamentally used chakra, making it impossible for others to practice. In the past, Xiao Wu had a more powerful teleportation soul skill, so Zuzong never considered improving it. 

But now, with the addition of Zhu Zhuqing, things were different. The safety of this little cat was paramount. More techniques meant more chances to survive. Therefore, Zuzong had been focusing most of his energy on improving the Body Flicker Technique these past few days.

"Zhuqing went to the Star Dou Forest with the Shrek team. I wonder how she's doing now. With Xiao Wu not there, the Titan Giant Ape shouldn't cause them any trouble, right?"

Zuzong thought. Speaking of the Star Dou Forest, he remembered his stealing system, which he hadn't used in a long time.

"System, open my personal panel."

As soon as he finished speaking, a crisp female voice echoed in his mind.

[Ding! Host's personal panel has been opened.]

"Uh." Zuzong was stunned. If it weren't for the content of the voice, he would have thought he misheard. This childish voice was no longer the iconic mechanical tone it used to be. It was clearly the voice of a girl!

"System! Why has your voice changed?"

[Ding! Reporting to the host, this system has been updated for nearly two years!]

"System update? Why didn't I know about it?"

[Ding! Because the host blocked the system two years ago. o(╥﹏╥)o Cry. Thus, all notifications except for basic ones couldn't be conveyed.]

Zuzong thought about it, and it seemed to be the case. Two years ago, while searching for the Pit Demon Spider in the Star Dou Forest, the system tricked him. Coupled with years of failed stealing attempts, he blocked the system in a fit of anger.

For the past two years, if he wasn't training, he was being pestered by the rabbit. If it weren't for the system's reminder every time his level increased, he would have almost forgotten this thing existed.

"Alright, alright, why is a system crying?"

[Ding! I'm a girl now after the update.]

Zuzong's forehead was filled with black lines.

"Fine, then let me apologize to you, Miss System."

[Ding! You're forgiven!]

"System, steal for me!"

[Ding! The system is stealing.]

[Ding! Congratulations, host, for stealing an ammo crate from the world of "Hero" in an underground warehouse. Ownerless item, no hatred points generated.]

[T/n - This a chinese show which will have no relevance in this fic]

Space distorted, and a black military case appeared in front of Zuzong. Opening it, the case had three layers.

The first layer contained two black Type 54 pistols, along with several magazines and a box of bullets.

The second layer contained a Thompson submachine gun and various accessories.

The third layer was even more outrageous: an AWP sniper rifle with a silencer.

Seeing this, Zuzong twitched and his forehead darkened.

A Type 54 pistol, standardized in 1954, appearing in the world of "Hero"? And an AWP sniper rifle too? Yanshuang Ying was really from the Anti-Japanese era? Truly the Chinese Captain, a bona fide badass!

"System, continue stealing!"

A childish voice echoed in his mind again.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, for stealing ten bottles of hundred-year-old soul wine from a grocery store in Douluo Continent. The grocery store owner's hatred towards the host increased to 40%. The owner decided his 400-pound daughter must marry the host. Hatred points increased by 750.]

[Ding! Congratulations, host, for stealing two sets of the latest couple outfits from a clothing store in Douluo Continent. The clothing store owner's hatred towards the host increased to 70%. The owner's daughter, weighing 400 pounds, now insists on marrying the host. (The clothing store owner is also the grocery store owner's precious daughter, who has now turned into a black-clad, blue-haired fanatic.) Hatred points increased by 1,250.]

"Pfft," Zuzong spat out blood.

"Damn! It's those two crazy father and daughter again! It's been five years, and they're still haunting me. A black-clad, blue-haired fanatic? Why not just a Zuzong fanatic?"

"Four hundred pounds? Even pigs aren't that fat. Marry her off to Yu Xiaogang! Ignore them."

[Ding! Congratulations, host, for stealing Xiao Wu's innerwear from Douluo Continent. Xiao Wu's affection towards the host increased to 110%. Host's hatred points remain 0.]

"Hehe, it was already 100%, now another 10%? System, were you sent by the author to inflate the word count? What a scam!"

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you guessed right. The system was indeed set up to inflate the word count.]

Zuzong's mind moved, and a pink innerwear fell into his hand, with a Q-version rabbit print on it. "Damn! Isn't this…"

At the same time, in the Rose Hotel, in the room next door to Zuzong's.

Xiao Wu, who had just woken up and was freshening up, was organizing her clothes. Ever since Zhu Zhuqing appeared, she started paying more attention to details. In the past, at Nuoding Academy, it was Zuzong who took care of her clothes, washing, organizing, and placing them. Now, she had to do it herself. If it weren't for Ye Lingling's help, she wouldn't have been able to manage.

At this moment, Xiao Wu was frowning, desperately searching for something, "Lingling, have you seen my pink panties with the Q-version white rabbit pattern?"

These panties were a gift from Zuzong on her "seventh" birthday and held great sentimental value. Although they no longer fit, she had kept them well-preserved.

She clearly remembered that when leaving Nuoding, she had personally handed these panties to Zuzong for safekeeping. Now that she couldn't find them, how could she not be anxious?

Ye Lingling shook her head, "It's so messy, maybe you misplaced it somewhere!"

"Misplaced somewhere?" Xiao Wu touched her white chin, pondering. The only people who had come into contact with these panties were herself and Zuzong. Could it be with Zuzong? The more she thought, the more possible it seemed.

Moments later, Xiao Wu concluded: Zuzong had secretly hidden her panties to do those naughty things.

Thinking of this, Xiao Wu blushed, looked toward Zuzong's room, and whispered, "Zuzong, you silly, if you wanted them, just tell me directly! Why be sneaky?"

Ye Lingling (dumbfounded): Someone, please take away this lovestruck bunny.

Zuzong (shouting): I didn't, I didn't!

In Zuzong's room.

Zuzong put away the pink panties, continuing to shout in his mind, "System, continue stealing!"

[Ding! Congratulations, host, for stealing Tang San's Eight Spider Lances external soul bone from the world of Douluo Continent.]

"What the hell!"
