Chapter 288 Monster

"Old man, please tell me! Please tell me quickly!"

Looking at his son who was urging him like he was dying, the Third Hokage was in an unprecedented headache. He had never had such a headache before when Naruto broke his crystal ball.

He took several puffs of cigarettes and didn't say anything.

He waited until Asuma stopped urging him.

"Are you calm now?"

The Third Hokage put down his pipe and asked calmly.

Asuma raised his broken hand.

Calm down?

What do you want him to do to calm down?

Most of the strength of a ninja lies in these hands. Without his hands, the road to becoming a ninja is also half ruined.

He is a young man in his twenties. He can't retire and collect pensions like the old men in their forties or fifties in the family, can he?

If he really did that, Asuma Sarutobi would rather cut his own neck with a thousand bonsai first.

The Third Hokage looked at his scumbag look and felt angry but couldn't say anything.

He is his own son, he has to be responsible for it.

He has been worrying since he was young, and now he thought he could understand his deep meaning. In fact, except for his height, his intelligence has not improved at all.

He pursues the so-called "Jade" all day long.

He is as stupid as his traitor who was brainwashed by a group of toads.

What is Jade?

What is the Child of Destiny?

How much does it have to do with you?

What Hashirama-sama didn't do back then, you pin your hopes on someone in the future, isn't it ridiculous?

If you have that time, why not come and help, and handle some government affairs together, it is a hundred times, a thousand times, or even ten thousand times better than just talking and not doing.

To be honest, he would rather Asuma discover his darkness, the darkness of Konoha.

He doesn't want Asuma to immerse himself in the so-called Will of Fire.

As the user of "weapons", can the Sandaime Hokage not know the power of the Will of Fire?

However, looking at Sarutobi Asuma's unwilling expression.

The Sandaime Hokage sighed slightly.

Asuma, I hope you can mature sooner.

"I have sent someone to invite Tsunade, but she doesn't want to return to the village. Wait until the end of this joint Chunin exam and the other ninja villages have left, then you can go to Tansho Street to find her."

"Be polite when you meet. I have already given her the medical expenses. You can give more if you want."

"Also, ask her how she has been doing in recent years. Konoha welcomes her home at any time."

The Third Hokage looked like an old father who was patient and persuading.

Although he had many distracting thoughts in his mind, he really cared for his son.

Asuma may not be sensible because he is just a junior.

But this old guy must understand.

Money must be given, and care must also be taken care of.

The former can make Tsunade feel "happy" for a short time, and the latter can arouse Tsunade's anger.

He wants Tsunade to have some feelings for Konoha, but he doesn't want her to really return to Konoha.

The princess of the Senju clan should not be in Konoha.

He doesn't need to tell Asuma too much about the twists and turns here. Asuma's head may not understand even if he breaks this matter into pieces.

To be honest, sometimes he really doubted whether he had picked up the wrong child from Biwako.

He wasn't so stupid when he was young, was he?

"Thank you, old man!"

Hearing Asuma's "thank you", the corners of the Sandaime Hokage's mouth twitched.

Forget it, biological children, biological children

"Remember to thank you."

The Sandaime Hokage reminded weakly.

Asuma waved his hand and happily left the Hokage's office.

Looking at Asuma who didn't look serious.

The Sandaime Hokage was a little tired.

It is estimated that when he said this, Asuma would complain in his heart that this old man kept talking nonsense all day long.

As one of the three ninjas of Konoha, isn't it natural for Tsunade-sama to treat Konoha ninjas?

And the Sandaime Hokage paid in advance.

He would just go over and do some superficial work.

Thinking of this possibility, the Sandaime Hokage knocked on the table.

The members of the Anbu appeared and knelt on one knee.

"Go and keep an eye on Asuma, don't let him run around."

Asuma still doesn't know that he has been completely cheated on.

If his brainless and stupid son, after being reminded by some people with ulterior motives, knows about this

Let alone whether Asuma will cause any trouble, he will have a hard time explaining it to Luke.

If a gap is created because of this, he will have to be scolded again when the Fire Country Daimyo comes to hold him accountable.

So, he must send someone to watch Asuma.

At least during the Chunin Joint Exam, Asuma must not cause any trouble.

For Konoha and for Asuma himself.

The Anbu members took the order and left.

The Sandaime Hokage took a puff of his pipe, his face full of sorrow.

He is old, he has been old for a long time.

When the Fourth Hokage took office, he was gradually giving up power.

But before the Fourth Hokage completely took power, the Nine-Tails' attack on the village caused a heavy blow to the entire Konoha.

Under the circumstances, he had no choice but to come out again.

Under pressure from many sides, he barely managed to hold up the facade of Konoha Village.

Unfortunately, the "Ninja Hero" in his prime was able to hold up Konoha, but the old "Ninjutsu Doctor" had long lost his killing heart.

He didn't even care about sending someone to assassinate his old friend Shimura Danzo.

If it were when he was young, Danzo would not have been so arrogant and proud in front of him all day long. If he could walk into the Hokage's office alive, he would have considered this ninja hero to have withered.

The untimely death of the Fourth Hokage, the covetous elder Danzo, the rebellious Konoha Sannin, and his wife who died in the Nine-Tails attack on the village

almost completely broke this old man.

The Fourth Hokage was a young junior he favored, Danzo was his old friend who shared life and death, and the Sannin was his apprentice who he brought up from childhood. The relationship between them could be compared to his own children.

And his wife Biwako, needless to say.

The two had been together for decades, but they were separated overnight. Sarutobi Asuma's rebellion for so many years must have been a hidden danger buried at that time.

He was almost the same as his disciple Jiraiya.

It seemed perfect, but it was actually a tragedy.

Hokage.

This position confused the eyes of too many people, including himself.

Sarutobi Hiruzen narrowed his eyes.

As I get older, I often recall the past.

Konoha is pretty good now, isn't it?

There are afterimages on the crystal ball, the dumpling shop, the ramen stall, the flower shop, the bathhouse

They are all still alive

The smoke lingers, entangling the crystal ball.

In the living room, Shion sits upright.

Luke is thoughtful.

"Can you still feel the 'connection' now?"

Shion quickly shakes his head.

No, not at all.

"Since you appeared, the power of the miko is approaching you." At this point, Shion hesitated, "I could also sense the connection when I prayed and sacrificed before, but I was not sure of the specific location."

"So, after I appeared, the target of the contact became me directly?"

Luke continued to ask.

Shion nodded.

Yes, before Luke came, she could indeed sense "God" when she prayed every day.

And this connection is quite weak.

It's as if there is a whole world between them.

Every sacrifice consumes a lot of energy, and it takes several days to recover.

The overall effect gives people a sense of emptiness that I have made great efforts but have not received any rewards.

However, after Luke appeared, this feeling completely disappeared.

The power of the shrine maiden was restless.

Fate no longer constantly guided her, eagerly "guided", no, it should be said to be an order.

Fate forced her to give her own power.

Although this feeling of being filled up is a bit intoxicating, I always feel like a gift that is rushed to be sent up.

I don’t even know what the other party likes.

Fate put all its gifts up at once.

Who gives away all their wealth when giving gifts?

The shrine maiden Shion, who was treated as a gift, was helpless.

"Is that so?"

Luke was thinking.

The shrine maiden Shion can indeed contact the "gods", and should also be the embodiment of the local rules of the ninja world.

But in the Chakra era, the "gods" have restored their original essence.

Only under certain conditions can they appear for a short while.

The rules that the witch contacted should be the "god" who controls fate and seals the rules.

So, under the guidance of fate, she came to him almost instinctively.

Luke originally thought that this group of "gods" had no self-awareness.

But now it seems that some of them still have consciousness and can detect his abnormality.

Are they rushing to send the gift to him because they need him?

Luke guessed.

"God. Lord God!"

Ziyuan mustered up her courage.

Luke looked up.

"Can I follow you?"

Ziyuan stared at Luke closely.

She didn't understand why "fate" brought her to Luke, a strange god, nor why a god would hide among mortals.

However, the guidance of fate will not be wrong!

She has predicted the death of others countless times, and has witnessed the future she predicted come true countless times with her own eyes.

Now Ziyuan firmly believes in this.

Perhaps, fate asked her to come here so that this Lord God can have his own witch.

Ziyuan guessed in her heart.

After all, before coming here, she also did some research on the mortal identity of the Lord God.

The famous great writer of the Fire Country, who was romantic by nature, had no one to accompany him.

Commoners like Ayame were not considered human beings in the eyes of the nobles.

In other words, this god was "lonely".

There were no priestesses serving him, no faithful believers, and no shrine of his own.

Fate, perhaps, did not want this Lord God to continue to wander around in the world in a muddle.

The priestess thought her idea was quite correct and was ready to implement it.

Luke scratched his head.

The two powers of Shion could protect her from the influence of monsters, but in front of Luke, she was just an ordinary person.

Luke knew what he was thinking.

Not to mention that since Shion appeared in front of him, Luke did feel that he seemed to have some kind of weak connection.

He seemed to be able to pull Shion directly into the "fog space" he created.

So, this is an additional "recruitment channel"?

Luke's expression looked a little strange for a moment.

He obviously wanted to follow the route of pirated Soul Society, so why did he develop in the direction of Western fantasy belief in gods?

Is this a strange path that he came up with by accident?

"Follow if you want."

Luke shook his head and suppressed these strange thoughts in his heart.

In the final analysis, there are differences between worlds.

The world of One Piece only allows the existence of Haki and Devil Fruit.

The fighting manga world allows the existence of magnetic field rotation system because it is compatible with this power system.

The Marvel world is even more outrageous, no matter how many power systems can be stuffed in.

Luke estimated that if Doraemon was stuffed in one day, there would not be any big fluctuations in the Marvel multiverse.

Although the Naruto world is not as open as the Marvel multiverse, it is not as extreme as One Piece that only allows its own power system to exist.

At least, Luke can now make some magic changes based on the power of the Ninja World.

As for the effect of the magic change, it depends entirely on God's will.

Anyway, he just needs to ensure that the background still has elements of the ninja world.

Shion's ability can also provide some reference directions for Luke.

If the development route of the Soul Society is really unworkable, then Luke can burn the divine fire in the ninja world and raise the divine court.

Who knows how far the world can relax its boundaries?

Their Luke's combat power so far is still at the planetary level.

It is still far from a single universe.

Not to mention the multiverse and infinite box in the future.

Shion showed joy and nodded excitedly.

It is much better to follow a living god than to be trapped in the Demon Kingdom.

And staying in the Demon Kingdom, you have to worry about when you will sacrifice your life and seal the monster.

The scene before her mother's death always makes Shion feel a little scared in her heart.

No one wants to die.

Not to mention a young girl.

"By the way, I'll take the demons from the Ghost Country first."

"You can take whatever you want. This is your Lord Quan. What do you want?"

Shiyuan subconsciously complimented him in the first half of the sentence, but she reacted as she spoke.

Her beautiful eyes widened, and her little face was full of surprise.

Luke raised his hand, a faint purple light appeared, and a small and exquisite dragon-shaped demon appeared in his palm.

The demon roared, and wisps of demon chakra flowed out of his body.

In the original timeline, humans could use the chakra of the demon Wuliang to create a group of terracotta warriors.

This group of troops caused the prince a lot of trouble at the beginning.

As for the demon Wuliang, after being unsealed, its strength is even more amazing.

But now, the soul of the demon Wuliang is just held in Luke's hand.

Playing with it like a toy.

Luke scratched the chin of the demon.

The dragon-shaped monster roared and bit Luke's finger.

But it didn't cause any damage.

Little thing, it's quite fierce.

Luke turned his hand and put it into the 'fog space'.

"You should know where my home is. If you want to come, you can come. I have taken the monster away. You can find a reason to explain it to the outside world."

Luke explained.

Ziyuan nodded in surprise.

In her mind, she still lingered on the scene of the monster Wuliang who had killed her mother being pulled out of the seal by Luke thousands of miles away. (End of this chapter)
