Chapter 553: The Current State of Powers
Chapter 553: The Current State of Powers
"You can experience the Izanagi Mangekyo first and help me with an experiment!"
Tang Ping gave a clear reply.
He was going to let her experience the true power of the Mangekyo and had an experiment in mind.
The Mangekyo Experiment!
Legend has it that the abilities of each pair of Mangekyo Sharingan were based on the user's 'wishes'.
If Tang Ping could guide these wishes, wouldn't it be like 'tailoring' the Mangekyo's power to the user?
Others might not be able to conduct such an experiment, but Tang Ping was different.
He had ample experimental data and, more importantly, the talented Uchiha Izumi by his side. With her, such an experiment was indeed possible.
"Yes, Master!"
Uchiha Izumi controlled her excitement and nodded.
As Tang Ping's disciple, she had received numerous hidden benefits, so she was well aware of the advantages of the experiment Tang Ping mentioned.
If she were to obtain the Mangekyo Sharingan through conventional means, she might have to work hard to earn contributions. But with this experiment, not only would she get something valuable for free, but she would also gain contributions.
Those who understood, understood!
After all, the rules were there to serve them, not restrict them.
"There will be many occasions where your strength will be needed in the future!"
Tang Ping hinted.
Now that it was the sixtieth year of Konoha, the stage was set for the grand events to unfold.
Upon hearing this, both Izumi and Karin's eyes lit up. They weren't afraid of hard work; they just wanted to have a chance to prove themselves.
"Alright, you two can go back now!"
Hyuga Cangyue started to send them off.
"Yes, Sister Cangyue!"
Karin and Izumi obediently left without a hint of defiance.
Both Uchiha Meika and Hyuga Cangyue had a powerful suppressing effect on the new generation of the Heavenly Castle.
Tang Ping knew that Hyuga Cangyue wanted to have a private conversation with him.
After the two left, Hyuga Cangyue's eyes suddenly turned into a deep, starry blue, looking incredibly dazzling.
The Celestial Body!
Tang Ping had introduced this countless times before, saying it was the key to entering the Hyper Shadow Rank. How could Hyuga Cangyue not be incredibly curious?
"Your Rinnegan has developed so quickly; how many Seeker Orbs have you condensed?"
Tang Ping was curious about the growth of the Rinnegan.
Measuring the growth progress by the number of condensed Seeker Orbs was indeed a very clear indicator.
"Six!"
Hyuga Cangyue proudly gave the answer.
She had made tremendous efforts and invested a vast amount of resources to achieve this growth.
"So fast... Did Orochimaru help?"
Tang Ping found this growth rate a bit surprising. It was already comparable to the Hyper Shadow Rank. Normally, no matter how many resources were invested, it wouldn't be possible to grow this fast, so there must be external assistance.
And the only one who could help was Orochimaru.
"I helped him with some 'tasks', so he helped me enhance my Rinnegan. I also brought back Kimimaro's blood and the inspection report!"
Hyuga Cangyue's Rinnegan closely examined Tang Ping's state as she casually replied.
Even though Orochimaru was under their control, his abilities were too extraordinary, and he dared to tamper with even their souls. So Tang Ping had instructed them to be cautious and not force orders upon him.
As for helping Orochimaru with tasks, it was no trouble for Hyuga Cangyue, and bringing back Kimimaro's blood and report was part of the deal.
"It wouldn't be surprising if Orochimaru could give us a 'surprise'!"
Tang Ping's eyes held a hint of expectation.
Regarding Orochimaru, his changes were minimal. Aside from their secret cooperation and personal relationship, he hadn't touched any other aspects, so the original plot would definitely unfold.
"Oh, is that so? I didn't expect that cold-blooded snake to have this use."
A voice sounded from the door.
It was Uchiha Meika.
Since Tang Ping had appeared, the 'Thunderfire Queen' who presided over the Heavenly Castle naturally couldn't be unaware of it, so she had rushed back at the first opportunity.
"Don't underestimate Orochimaru. If he didn't have enough value, I wouldn't have used the Susanoo on him!"
Tang Ping could clearly sense the hint of malice in Meika's tone towards Orochimaru.
The reason was obvious.
The Uchiha clan, especially the clan head, Meika, would undoubtedly be targeted. Although they wouldn't dare, and wouldn't even consider, attacking the Uchiha branch at the Tenshukaku, it didn't mean that Meika wouldn't have any opinions.
"I hope he can give us some surprises!"
Uchiha Meika sat down on the sofa.
After a few years, her appearance remained unchanged, and she even looked much younger, not seeming any older than Quan.
After all, she had the Extraordinary Organ.
"During my slumber, what major events occurred?"
Tang Ping didn't want to go to the office to read reports, so naturally, it was best to ask her.
Uchiha Meika, of course, was delighted to spend more time with Tang Ping, who had just awakened from his slumber, so she slowly spoke.
During Tang Ping's slumber...
With the Tenshukaku's resources and energy focused on the grand plan, they naturally had no time for trouble, so things were relatively peaceful.
However, their relationship with Konoha took a sharp turn for the worse.
Both the Daimyo and Konoha secretly began targeting the Tenshukaku, first blocking all their intelligence and news, causing many to be unaware of the Tenshukaku's existence.
At the same time, Mount Myoboku and Dragon Hole Cave continuously sent snakes and toads to gather intelligence on Soup Valley.
This was the situation within the Land of Fire, while externally, things were much more lively.
The Land of Birds directly involved the surrounding powers, even the Land of Wind and the Land of Earth couldn't calm this chaos.
Wealth moves the heart! The value of bird droppings was too high, and the two great countries monopolized it, leaving the surrounding small countries impoverished. It's no surprise they took action.
Furthermore, the 'Black Oil' extraction at the Fire/Wind border region turned it into a meat grinder.
Black Oil could not only refine skyship gases but also produce plastic and oil, earning it the title of 'Liquid Gold'.
For this substance, the major powers naturally became obsessed, their minds turning to mush.
And the Land of Rain became the center of black market oil trading.
"..."
Hearing this, Tang Ping didn't know what to say. This was a path the Rain Shinobi had never imagined.
The Rain Shinobi were able to establish two black markets and maintain them because of the 'Akatsuki' secretly intervening; otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to keep up this business.
It can be said that both bird droppings and black oil became sources of chaos, attracting the attention of major powers. This was how the Tenshukaku managed to hold on during Tang Ping's slumber.
With their resources fully invested in the grand plan, it's not surprising that their development stagnated.
Of course, this didn't include the Land of Water.
Terumi Mei was even more ruthless and capable than imagined.
She directly ordered the Mist Shinobi to blockade the sea, sinking any non-allied ships.
A closed and isolated country!
This was the traditional art of the Land of Water.
By blocking information, the Mist Shinobi were able to take control and, with the help of the Mist, turned the controlled areas into a series of aquaculture farms, pastures, and the like.
The Land of Water may have thick fog, but that doesn't mean they can't farm. As long as they dug good irrigation channels, it wasn't a problem.
At the very least, growing 'Water Potatoes' was not an issue.
This is a type of grain, but it contains a large amount of starch, and it thrives in shade and water, perfectly suited for the Land of Water.
It can be used to feed fish, shrimp, pigs, cows, and more. The demand is endless.
It can be said that with the help of the Mist, the new Hidden Mist Village and the surrounding few hundred kilometers have been developed into a fertile land.
Over ten million people!
In the Land of Water, the new Hidden Mist Village already has this many people working for it.
And various materials are piled up like mountains, but due to Tang Ping's slumber, resources and energy were constantly being diverted, so expansion was difficult.
However, the new Hidden Mist Village and its surroundings have become a country within a country, directly deterring the Daimyo and nobles from entering.
At the same time, the new Hidden Mist Village has completely transformed into their image.
The current Mist Shinobi are proud to be Tenshukaku Shinobi and have no dissatisfaction. They only call themselves Mist Shinobi because of the rules; otherwise, they would have changed their flags and headguards long ago.
After listening to all this, Tang Ping finally had a general understanding of the Shinobi world during his slumber.
