Chapter 439: Red Eyes, Your Man Smells So Good!
Chapter 439: Red Eyes, Your Man Smells So Good!
"What?!"
"Death Valley?"
"Are you sure you're not mistaken?"
...
Dong Ping woke up and, after finishing his morning routine, heard Uchiha Yai's voice coming from the living room.
When he entered the room, he saw three adults and four children, all wearing training uniforms, standing against the wall in a horse stance, with a basin of water balanced on their heads.
If anyone moved their body, the basin would topple, drenching them.
How ruthless!
Dong Ping's lips twitched.
Even the youngest, Uzumaki Minato, who was not yet four years old, was treated the same, with no mercy shown.
In his previous world, this would be considered child abuse.
But in the Shinobi World?
This was already considered 'gentle' treatment.
Just look at the Great Filial Son, who was brought to the battlefield at a young age.
That was a true 'shocking education'.
In comparison, this was nothing.
However, upon seeing Dong Ping, the four children desperately winked at him, pleading for his help.
Facing Uchiha Yai, they were completely suppressed by her bloodline, and they didn't dare to plead for leniency, let alone speak up. They could only pin their hopes on Dong Ping.
It could be said that Dong Ping had nothing to do with the word 'strict teacher'.
Glancing at Uchiha Yai, who was sitting on the sofa talking to Uchiha Shizuka, Dong Ping walked over.
Upon seeing Dong Ping, a motherly smile instantly appeared on Uchiha Shizuka's face, and she asked,
"How was your rest?"
As the spokesperson for Uchiha Yai, she was naturally aware of Dong Ping's actions and knew that he had slept for an entire day.
"Not bad. What's going on?"
Dong Ping nonchalantly responded, and as for pleading for the children, he looked at Uchiha Yai, whose aura was fully unleashed, resembling a domineering CEO. He gave up.
"Now, Konoha, the Rock Village, the Grass Village, and other forces are all showing signs of war due to the sudden appearance of Death Valley!"
Uchiha Shizuka reported again.
However, after hearing this, Dong Ping's lips twitched, as he had confirmed that the so-called Death Valley was the very place he had previously blasted with his Starbreaker Spear.
But he hadn't expected that place to be capable of activating chakra.
After some thought, he realized that the Star Ninja Village also utilized 'stars' for training, which allowed them to rapidly enhance their strength and even cultivate unique ninjutsu like the Peacock Marvel Technique.
The radiation from stars or uranium indeed benefited ninja chakra cultivation, but the cost was a shortened lifespan.
For people from his previous world, trading a shorter life for faster cultivation speed was out of the question.
But in the cruel Shinobi World, this was a tremendous blessing, worth fighting for, which was why such a situation arose.
Uchiha Yai naturally understood the nature of Death Valley, so she turned her gaze towards Dong Ping.
Her intention was clear—she wanted him to explain.
Uchiha Shizuka was unaware of their encounter with Otsutsuki, so upon receiving this news, she had rushed over.
"A special energy can indeed activate the body and promote chakra cultivation, but it's very harmful and won't last long before disappearing!"
Dong Ping thought for a moment and explained.
That's right, radiation couldn't exist for an extended period.
After all, this was the Shinobi World, not his previous world, and the intense battle. The rules were different, so the manifestations were naturally distinct.
With aliens and divine beings, different rules were fundamental.
"Is that so..."
Uchiha Shizuka's expression turned slightly disappointed.
She had initially thought this was some kind of treasure ground for cultivation, and they could find a way to benefit from it. She hadn't expected this outcome.
Wait!
She suddenly realized that Death Valley had only appeared recently, and Dong Ping seemed to know about it in great detail.
However, she didn't voice this doubt.
It wasn't unusual for her superior, the master of the Heavenly Fortress, to have secrets.
"By the way, how are the preparations?"
Dong Ping asked.
He had given instructions before resting.
"We've already contacted the other party!"
Uchiha Shizuka nodded.
Yes, the task assigned yesterday was to arrange a meeting with someone and prepare a discreet route to the Water Country.
At any other time, there would be no need for preparation.
But currently, the Mist Village's army was attacking the Heavenly Fortress, making travel to the Water Country extremely challenging.
"That's good!"
Dong Ping stood up, ready to depart.
This time, he wanted to go alone.
The reason was simple: Uchiha Yai was stationed at the Heavenly Fortress, and Hyuga Cangyue needed to properly nurture her Reincarnation Eye.
Only he had the time.
"Do you want someone to accompany you?"
Uchiha Yai asked calmly, as if she didn't care about him at all.
A typical Uchiha tsundere.
"No need, I can move more freely alone!"
Dong Ping shook his head.
He wasn't exaggerating.
If his strength wasn't sufficient, following him would only be a burden.
Just like the Second Hokage, if it weren't for protecting his Shadow Guards, he wouldn't have needed to stay behind as reinforcement.
Even without the Sage Mode, his Fire Style alone made him a Shadow-level shinobi.
Not to mention his formidable strength, he also had several life-saving abilities. If he wanted to leave, not many could stop him.
"Alright then!"
Uchiha Yai naturally understood this, so she didn't insist.
Before reaching the door, Dong Ping glanced at the little ones and advised,
"They've learned their lesson, right... I'll be going now!"
Seeing Uchiha Yai's stern expression, Dong Ping decided to slip away, leaving the little ones with a helpless look.
Because he knew Uchiha Yai was right.
In the harsh world of shinobi, if one wasn't strict, just look at Kinutree for reference.
The battlefield wouldn't care about your background; if you're not strong enough, you die.
(Kinutree: ...Are you blaming me for this?)
That's right!
Dong Ping indeed had a new idea.
For instance, how to repay Tsunade's favor while also annoying the Konoha upper echelon.
If the Senju bloodline appeared again, who knows how Sarutobi would choose in the future.
His position as Hokage was largely secured by inheriting the 'Senju Legacy'; otherwise, do you really think their Konoha F4's strength could suppress the Hyuga and Uchiha clans?
Of course, this was just an idea, and the conditions weren't ripe yet.
After leaving the residence, he saw a beauty with black shoulder-length hair, a pure and delicate face like jade, and a loose white martial arts outfit that couldn't hide her stunning figure.
Despite many passersby, no one seemed to notice this beauty, as if she were invisible, which was extremely odd.
"Dong Ping, it's not right to sneak out alone!"
The beauty shook her finger playfully.
Indeed, it was Hyuga Cangyue! With her true Reincarnation Eye, she had broken free from her restraints, and her entire being underwent a metamorphosis.
She had cried the night before.
The caged bird was her nightmare, and now that this nightmare was finally broken, how could she not undergo a transformative change?
Even the headband or protector on her forehead was removed, revealing her smooth and delicate forehead.
Now, even if she encountered the Hyuga clan in the village, they wouldn't recognize this beauty with her pure and delicate face and blue pupils. The once timid and average-looking Hyuga Cangyue had undergone a dramatic transformation.
Usually, she had been in disguise, but now, without it, her appearance was naturally transformed.
"Your eyes..."
Dong Ping was hesitant to refuse Hyuga Cangyue's company.
Because at this moment, the Reincarnation Eye wasn't suitable for combat.
"No, it's just that using the pupillary techniques is inconvenient, but basic observation is still possible. Besides, you don't want to be ambushed during negotiations, do you?"
Hyuga Cangyue explained.
After more than a day, she had become familiar with her metamorphosed Reincarnation Eye and gained this information.
In short, using the pupillary techniques would affect growth, but basic observation abilities weren't significantly impacted. Therefore, bringing her along was essential.
"Alright!"
Dong Ping nodded after considering.
This 'super human radar' was indeed necessary.
Without her, even with Zetsu's company, they wouldn't have been able to detect the plan, which would undoubtedly be affected.
Thus, there was one more person on this trip.
Hyuga Cangyue glanced at the residence behind them.
'Red eyes, your man is so charming!'
After looking back, she wore a heartfelt smile and followed Dong Ping's footsteps.
