Chapter 475: Nervousness and the Prelude!
Chapter 475: Nervousness and the Prelude!
Not long after, Kakashi left. This time, he represented the Shadow Division and followed behind Danzo. After all, the matter of the Flying Squad was not only under Danzo's attention but also involved the entire Konoha.
As for Dong Ping, he rarely had the chance to be away from the watchful eyes of Uchiha Yai and Hyuga Cangyue, so naturally, he wasn't in a hurry to return. It took him two days to finally go back.
He couldn't help it; Rin was just too alluring, and these two days had been a 'living in bliss' for him.
The two of them were like fire and ice, but the others didn't react as dramatically. Otherwise, the Heavenly Fortress might have been blown to smithereens by the Reincarnation Eye and the Reincarnated Eye.
Indeed, the two of them were wary of each other, both thinking, 'If I can't have it, neither can you.' Before a clear winner emerged, Dong Ping could only dream of doing anything.
However, when it came to the others, the two of them would turn a blind eye, and Dong Ping gradually realized this.
If not, Hanyu Rin would have 'disappeared' long ago.
Oh, right!
Dong Ping now also had a 'noble' identity, which meant he could reasonably start a harem. Unlike other time-travelers, he wasn't going to restrict himself by the rules of his previous life.
Please, if he were to follow those rules, the first issue would be killing. If you're a ninja and you don't kill, you're probably still dreaming.
With the right conditions, the harem would naturally open.
What's the point of time-traveling if you don't start a harem?
However, with two dangerous women by his side, this dream could only be kept hidden in his heart for now.
Whoosh!
Upon returning to the mansion, Dong Ping wanted to say 'Excuse me' and leave after opening the door.
Uchiha Yai and Hyuga Cangyue were sipping tea in the living room, while Shizuka Uchiha stood in the corner, watching the drama unfold. Meanwhile, the three adults and four children were all practicing horse stance against the wall.
Indeed, this had become Uchiha Yai's daily routine at the Heavenly Fortress.
The four children's fear of Uchiha Yai wasn't entirely unfounded, as she was the legendary 'Tiger Mom' type of elder who could be truly fierce.
Making a mistake would earn you a severe beating!
However, the elders didn't get angry about this; instead, they were even more grateful.
Uchiha Yai was the renowned 'Thunderflame Queen.' Taking time to mentor the children in the basics, how dare they complain?
A beating was in order!
The adults understood even more clearly that in the Shinobi World, without strength, one would face dire consequences. So, they not only refused to back the little ones but also added to their punishment.
Moreover, they were well aware that although Uchiha Yai's training was harsh, all kinds of food, secret medicines, and medicinal baths were provided free of charge.
It could be said that she was treating the children as the future core of the Heavenly Fortress, hence the special treatment.
There was a vast gap in strength between the ninja clans and the common ninja, and the biggest problem was resources. Now that Uchiha Yai was helping to invest in resources, how could they not be grateful?
Even Shizuru, the princess of the Phantom Country, received the same treatment, and Maito even wrote a letter of thanks.
Asahagami Seifu, the 'guardian,' brought her over every day.
Shizuru's fate also differed from the original plot.
In the original story, her ability to foresee the deaths of those around her led to a reclusive personality, compounded by her mother's early death, making her extremely rebellious.
However, influenced by Dong Ping, even the Water Phantoms, the mortal enemies of the priestesses, had become allies. With a group of friends by her side, how could she be reclusive? It was simply overthinking.
After assessing the situation inside the house, especially when he felt the two glares fixed on him, Dong Ping's right hand felt incredibly heavy as he tried to close the door. In the end, he entered the house as if submitting to punishment.
This nervousness was natural.
After two days of gallivanting, returning home to find your official girlfriend waiting at the door, it was hard not to feel nervous.
"Ahem!" Dong Ping coughed tactically a few times, drawing attention before 'talking to himself' and sighing, "After two days of overtime, I've finally finished the experiment!"
Overtime was a common occurrence, and two days was nothing. Even two months holed up in the lab wasn't unheard of for him.
After obtaining the body of the Great Tree, he immediately returned and worked overtime for a week without rest.
"Yeah, it's been exhausting these past few days. Your back must be killing you, right?"
Hyuga Cangyue spoke with a seemingly nonchalant tone, causing Dong Ping's expression to freeze.
Damn it!
Is this the end?
If the two of them were to join forces, not only would he lose his chance at a harem, but he'd also lose all freedom. With the Reincarnated Eye used to catch adulterers, who could withstand that?
"Hmph!"
Uchiha Yai was about to say something, but seeing Uchiha Shizuka in the distance with a face full of 'fight, fight' and four small figures in the corner with their ears perked up while practicing horse stance, she let out a cold snort and lowered her head to drink her tea.
At that moment, Hyuga Cangyue threw a glance at Dong Ping.
Turns out, she was the 'inside spy'.
Without her cooperation, things wouldn't have gone so smoothly this time.
"Phew!"
Dong Ping exhaled lightly and sat down on the sofa.
Hyuga Cangyue skillfully poured him a cup of tea.
"Soon, we'll witness a grand spectacle!"
Dong Ping seized the initiative, directly mentioning something that would undoubtedly capture their attention.
This time, he had returned not only to handle the affairs of the flying squadron but also to watch the show.
"A grand spectacle?"
Not only was Uchiha Yai intrigued, but even Uchiha Shizuka, who was watching the show, became focused.
They both knew one thing.
If the words came from Dong Ping's mouth, no matter how absurd or unbelievable they might seem, they would undoubtedly come true.
After all, there were too many such examples, making it hard not to believe.
"Tsk tsk, the Uchiha clan's genius, 'Instant Calm', has a reputation that surpasses even ours. Isn't that a bit too dazzling?"
Dong Ping was no longer hinting but explicitly stating it.
This was his style; he never played the game of cryptic hints. If he had something to say, he'd say it directly; otherwise, he'd remain silent.
Now, he had revealed the main topic.
Instant Calm!
The opponent's fame was at its peak.
The title was earned through battles against the Mist Ninja, where they were undefeated in small-scale conflicts.
Now, with the Mist Village in seclusion, the opponent had returned to Konoha.
Estimating the timing, the period when the opponent encountered trouble was approaching.
After all, within Konoha, the Uchiha clan was already showing signs of becoming a 'bomb'.
The number of members in the Hawk Faction was increasing day by day.
Being treated like 'criminals' and ostracized daily, even an ordinary ninja clan would become irritable, let alone the Uchiha, a powerful clan in the Shinobi World.
Frequent clan meetings at Minakagawa Shrine served as an outlet for their emotions, and some members started suggesting they cause trouble.
As for seeking refuge with the Heavenguard Tower, no one brought it up.
It wasn't that they didn't want to; they simply lacked the face to do so.
After all, they had voluntarily 'abandoned' the Naka-machi Clan Lineage initially. It would be impossible for them to return now.
Therefore, the only option was to overthrow the Hokage... no, to rebel.
By rebelling, they aimed to topple the current Hokage leadership, which was targeting them, and then install the Uchiha clan as the new Hokage.
The grand spectacle Dong Ping mentioned was the Uchiha clan's rebellion.
Upon hearing this news, neither Uchiha Yai nor Uchiha Shizuka showed any reaction.
As members of the Naka-machi Clan Lineage, they had become estranged from Konoha.
Initially, they had been 'sacrificed' by the other side.
Given this premise, it was no wonder they reacted in such a manner.
"Instant Calm... Is there something special about him?"
Hyuga Cangyue glanced at the four little ones in the corner and then asked.
As long as they kept their voices down, the others wouldn't be able to hear them.
It wasn't that they wanted to hide anything, but some things were indeed not suitable for them to hear.
"Yes!"
Dong Ping looked at Hyuga Cangyue with appreciation. Her intuition was indeed sharp.
For him to bring it up alone, there must be something special about it; he wouldn't even bother with ordinary people.
And so, he began to reveal the truth.
