Chapter 1042: Warning and Revival!
Kurenai Yuhi!
She knew Tang Ping too well, given their mutual understanding of each other’s backgrounds. She was well aware of his thoughts, which was why she used genjutsu to remind Ino of her choices.
She was to weigh whether to stay loyal to the Yamanaka clan or face the possibility of the clan’s destruction alongside the other two clans.
As for Ino joining the Sunlit Kingdom with a hidden agenda... No one would suspect it, and no one could see through it, right?
Shinobi were extremely sharp when it came to intelligence and vigilance.
If it were someone like Itachi, Kabuto, or Nonō, they might have gone unnoticed. But Ino was no such spy!
After she and the Root operatives staged her defection to the Sunlit Kingdom, even if Tang Ping didn’t reveal the truth, others still picked up on some clues.
However, Konohagakure was indeed dangerous, and their relationship was complicated. That’s why they tacitly accepted her but never shared any intelligence with her.
Kurenai Yuhi felt sympathetic towards the girl, whose father had died in battle, who faced discrimination within her clan, and who was tricked by Root to become a spy. That was why she took care of her.
Otherwise, with Ino’s limited spy skills, she would have been exposed countless times.
Especially Nonō found it a headache.
It wasn’t about preventing intelligence leaks; that was a non-issue.
Ino’s level of skill meant she couldn’t gather much important information, and they never kept ordinary intelligence confidential.
Her headache was how to pretend she hadn’t noticed Ino’s small actions.
Kurenai Yuhi had asked her to keep an eye on things, so she had to be careful.
Of course, Kurenai Yuhi had also informed Tang Ping about this, which was why Nonō agreed to help. Otherwise, she would never have taken such a risk.
As the head of intelligence, she wouldn’t make such a mistake.
Knowing Ino’s situation, it’s no wonder Kurenai Yuhi warned her.
Because choosing wrong could have severe consequences.
Clan extermination!
The survival of the Yamanaka clan now rested on Ino’s shoulders, which was why she took on the mission.
“Hope you succeed!”
Tang Ping gave Kurenai Yuhi a meaningful look and then gestured for Tsunade and Ino to leave.
Even before his Ascension, he could have detected Kurenai Yuhi’s genjutsu, let alone now, when it was practically obvious.
“We’ll be going too!”
Kurenai Yuhi also left with Anko Mitarashi. She wasn’t afraid of Tang Ping.
Thus, the office was left with only Tang Ping and Tobirama Senju.
“Is there something you need?”
Tobirama Senju asked straightforwardly.
Being a rational person, he knew Konohagakure had no chance of a comeback after learning about the Sunlit Kingdom’s intelligence. With the Senju clan’s support, he could maintain his position and work for the Sunlit Kingdom, despite his lingering feelings for Konohagakure.
“I hope you don’t interfere with Tsunade’s mission!”
Tang Ping looked at him seriously.
As the Second Hokage, if Tobirama were to intervene, he could indeed handle Konohagakure, even with Shinra present.
Tobirama had prestige, strength, and political acumen.
So, this ‘cheat’ for Tsunade needed to be shut down early.
Tang Ping hoped Konohagakure would stubbornly refuse, so he could make them understand the harsh reality of survival of the fittest.
The former peace of Konohagakure was built on the suffering of other villages.
Villages like the Rain Village had been battlefields for the major shinobi villages. Now, it was their turn to taste that pain.
“...I understand!”
Tobirama Senju felt a pressure from his soul under Tang Ping’s intense gaze and eventually nodded.
After Ascending to a divine being, Tang Ping’s life force had transcended, and when he focused, he could exert immense pressure on Tobirama Senju.
“Good!” Tang Ping nodded in satisfaction, then added casually, “No matter how Konohagakure changes, it will always be the Konohagakure founded by the Senju and Uchiha clans. As long as that remains true, it’s enough, isn’t it?”
He meant that no matter what happened, Konohagakure would still exist, and the fact that it was founded by the Senju clan would be widely known.
Whoever was purged or disappeared was a minor issue.
“Understood!”
Tobirama Senju slowly nodded, accepting Tang Ping’s proposal.
He had no choice. The more he understood Tang Ping, the more he realized his power and fear.
Especially now, with the legendary Sage of Six Paths and Uzumaki Mito already dealt with, he had no grounds to refuse.
'Hoping Tsunade will succeed!'
This thought flashed through Tobirama Senju's mind as he walked out of the office.
Because only then could the subsequent purge be avoided.
Otherwise, if Tsunade were to fail, Konohagakure would face a catastrophic disaster.
After Tobirama Senju left, only Tang Ping remained in the office, and he began his work.
While conquering Konohagakure was important, the 'Resurrection' was even more critical.
At this point, most of the Ryounin had fallen in battle, and he needed to 'resurrect' them.
"Release!"
Tang Ping walked to the side lounge, pulled out a scroll, and made the hand signs to summon Uzumaki Budou's body onto the sofa.
She had only been dead for half a day, so her body was still quite 'fresh.'
Bang!
A God of Death Clone, about the size of a pillow, appeared.
After Tang Ping's Ascension, he no longer needed to perform hand signs to summon this clone.
On its claw, there was a small, translucent image of Uzumaki Budou.
Yes, a soul!
The souls of those who died in the final battle all entered the Tengoku plane, so there was no need to use the Impure World Reincarnation technique to summon them from Jodo.
Although Jodo no longer had the Sage of Six Paths, the Impure World Reincarnation could still be used freely, but this method was far more convenient.
The God of Death Clone inserted the soul back into Uzumaki Budou's body.
The process looked incredibly simple, as if resurrection was just a matter of a single claw.
In reality, this was due to the God of Death's unique expertise in the realm of souls. For anyone else, even a divine being like Tang Ping, resurrection would be far more complex.
But for the God of Death, as long as the soul was intact, it was a straightforward task.
Of course, the prerequisite was that the body was not damaged.
If the body had fatal injuries, even if the soul was returned, the person would die again.
So, Tang Ping had already roughly treated the wounds on the body to prevent any immediate death after resurrection.
The originally cold body of Uzumaki Budou gradually regained breath and warmth, and Tang Ping administered several vials of life potions to her.
Life force!
This was the most crucial thing to replenish after resurrection.
Without sufficient life force, the revived person would face numerous complications.
Resurrection was a delicate process.
Thanks to the God of Death Clone and Tang Ping's Ascension to the Divine Realm, resurrecting Uzumaki Budou, who had reached the peak of the Soutensei level, was not a simple task.
Of course, while it looked like the God of Death's resurrection was just a matter of a single claw, the greatest cost was borne by Tang Ping!
It drained his mental and physical energy completely.
Even after a brief rest to recover, his energy was once again depleted.
"Hmm..."
Uzumaki Budou let out a soft hum.
Soon, after drinking a few concentrated vials of the life potion, she opened her eyes.
Seeing the familiar surroundings and the figure beside her, she immediately understood what had happened.
"Resurrected... did we win?"
Uzumaki Budou was no stranger to resurrection, so she was not confused about the situation; she only cared about the outcome of the final battle.
If the Sage of Six Paths could not be dealt with, the trouble would be immense.
"We won. I have already become a divine being, and the Sage of Six Paths is no longer a concern!"
Tang Ping's voice was gentle.
His fiancée had sacrificed herself without hesitation for him, and he could not help but be moved.
"Is that so... that's good!"
Uzumaki Budou, who had been somewhat tense, now relaxed.
She knew very well what resolving the Sage of Six Paths meant.
It meant that the Sunlit Nation would no longer have to worry about any opponents.
Long ago, the Sunlit Nation could have dominated the Ninja World, but Tang Ping had always held back without explaining the reason.
Only before the final battle did he reveal the true opponent to the Ryounin, making them understand who their true adversary was.
Now that this opponent was dealt with, there was no longer any force in the Ninja World that could stand against the Sunlit Nation. They could unify the Ninja World and bring true happiness and peace.
"Yes, the next steps may require your assistance..."
Tang Ping began to delegate.
Resurrecting Uzumaki Budou was not just because of their relationship.
It was also because she could take charge of the Sunlit Nation and handle the remaining affairs.
As for him, he had more important matters to attend to.
