Chapter 714: Capturing Hand Clan Feijian!
Chapter 714: Capturing Hand Clan Feijian!
"I'm already dead, and everything before that has nothing to do with me!" Hand Clan Feijian politely declined.
Yes, the Second Hokage's ideal was not to protect the village and his family like his older brother, but to conquer the Ninja World.
While protecting the village was also a goal, his greatest ambition was to dominate the Ninja World, a desire he shared with Danzo.
Unfortunately, their identities made collaboration impossible.
"Is that so? If you've accepted your fate, why secretly research the seals I set up and gather intelligence on the Skyguard Tower?" Dong Ping wasn't fooled by Hand Clan Feijian's words.
From the original storyline, he knew that Hand Clan Feijian wasn't as resigned as his older brother and was always up to something.
If not for Hand Clan Feijian's restraint, he might have already caused trouble.
So, after gaining control over Hand Clan Feijian, Dong Ping immediately placed numerous restrictions on him.
In general, as long as Hand Clan Feijian's abilities didn't surpass his own, there was no need to worry for the time being.
Additionally, Dong Ping had no intention of 'reviving' Hand Clan Feijian, despite his usefulness.
He merely used the promise of reviving Hand Clan Shoutree as a temptation.
Even with an enhanced Heavenly Curse Seal, it might not be possible to control Hand Clan Feijian if he were truly resurrected.
Furthermore, while Hand Clan Feijian was useful, he was even more adept at causing trouble.
The Reanimation Jutsu was an extremely dangerous forbidden technique, and Hand Clan Feijian had undoubtedly created more than one. Dong Ping had no desire to destroy the Ninja World, so he was content to use this dangerous individual for his purposes, but he wasn't willing to bring him back to life.
"I was just researching it!" Hand Clan Feijian's expression remained unchanged, showing no sign of embarrassment at being exposed.
It could only be said that he had mastered the essence of the 'Thick Black Theory', knowing that as long as he wasn't embarrassed, the embarrassment would fall on others.
"Senior Feijian, you wouldn't want to see the Hand Clan go extinct, would you?" Dong Ping threatened calmly.
He had the upper hand! Although Hand Clan Feijian was already dead, his love for the Hand Clan was genuine, and Dong Ping could manipulate him by holding this over him.
If it weren't for the Skyguard Tower's opposition to the Hidden Leaf Village, Hand Clan Feijian would have agreed long ago.
"Hand Clan Shoutree..." Hand Clan Feijian naturally understood Dong Ping's intentions.
Even without Dong Ping saying it, Great Snake, as his teacher, would surely reveal the truth.
"I suspect that the Hand Clan Shoutree's death was also related to the Hidden Leaf's upper echelons. Otherwise, with a powerful ninja like Great Snake, dying in a simple Explosive Tag Trap is a bit too convenient, don't you think?" Dong Ping began to stir up trouble.
The reason Hand Clan Feijian refused was because of the Hidden Leaf, and now Dong Ping was naturally going to provoke him.
With Hand Clan Feijian's wisdom, he surely understood Dong Ping's intentions.
However, Dong Ping's words were logical and well-founded.
After crossing over into the Ninja World, Dong Ping realized it was a dark and corrupt world. If he assumed the worst and darkest interpretation of events, he would undoubtedly uncover the truth.
For example, Hand Clan Shoutree, the young master of the Hand Clan, didn't die in battle but in a trap. Danzo must have had a hand in it.
Dong Ping had thought of the reason.
Hokage!
Once Hand Clan Shoutree grew up, the position of Hokage would undoubtedly be his.
How could Danzo, who desperately wanted to become Hokage, tolerate this? Moreover, Danzo and the Hokage lineage rose to power after the Hand Clan's demise. The thought of Hand Clan Shoutree becoming Hokage was too beautiful to even consider.
Therefore, this 'accident' was a natural consequence.
Creating such an accident would be simple if one understood Hand Clan Shoutree's abilities and habits.
There were reasons and conditions for it! Dong Ping couldn't help but suspect the famous 'Pot King'.
Hand Clan Feijian also had a conspiratorial nature and understood that the likelihood of this possibility was extremely high; it wasn't a small probability event.
If Hand Clan Shoutree had died in battle, he wouldn't have any thoughts of reviving him.
But if he died due to a conspiracy, and his disciples might have been involved, Hand Clan Feijian couldn't remain indifferent.
"The monkeys would never do such a thing!" However, he still defended his disciples, trying to deceive himself.
"Really? I can also use Reanimation Jutsu. Should I bring back the Third Hokage, the 'Strongest Hokage,' and ask him?" Dong Ping suggested with ill intent.
Yes, while Monkey King Enma wouldn't take action, he must have noticed something. Questioning him was the fastest way to find out the truth.
Furthermore, since Hand Clan Feijian was already dead, there were ways to control him and force the truth out of him.
"No!"
"No need!"
"Let's not disturb the dead any further!"
...
Hand Clan Feijian flatly refused Dong Ping's 'kindness'.
Before asking, he could still deceive himself, but if he heard the truth, his mental state might collapse.
For his disciple to harm his own grandson... it was a bit too cruel.
Upon hearing this response, Dong Ping secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Because he didn't have Monkey King Enma's body tissue.
After learning about the Reanimation Jutsu, the other party's corpse would definitely be handled with care, so how could he have a chance to exploit it?
Looking at Hand Clan Feijian, who would only have his 'mouth' left even if he was cremated, Dong Ping no longer wanted his disciple to poke at his heart and instead proposed another condition.
"Resurrect Hand Clan Shoutree, and I'll let him live a happy life as an ordinary person, then rebuild the Hand Clan!"
His plan was to sway Hand Clan Feijian by using the resurrection of Hand Clan Shoutree and the rebuilding of the Hand Clan to get him to work for Dong Ping.
However, he didn't want to play the part of the cuckoo in the magpie's nest, so he directly killed Hand Clan Shoutree from the start.
He couldn't be a ninja!
Otherwise, with his identity, it would be too easy to recruit a group of Hidden Leaf Village ninjas and create a 'Hidden Leaf' faction.
This was intolerable, so the conditions had to be discussed in advance.
"The Hand Clan...?"
Hand Clan Feijian's tone was filled with exclamation, clearly wavering.
Even if he considered the Hidden Leaf Village as his own child, the Hand Clan was the source of his bloodline, and now that it had been 'exterminated', how could he possibly accept it? It would be strange if he wasn't wavering.
"And by helping the forces you assisted in life achieve your unfulfilled ideals, aren't you also inheriting your own ideals?"
Dong Ping added another condition.
The other party's ideal couldn't be fulfilled by the Hidden Leaf Village, but the signs of life, so it wasn't an empty promise.
Although Hand Clan Feijian didn't know that the Sand Village Ninja and Mist Shinobi had transformed into the Skyguard Tower, just the forces of the Tea Country and the River Country, along with the hidden power of the Skyguard Tower, were enough to make it clear that this coalition might be at a disadvantage.
Not to mention, there was also Dong Ping, a 'Super Kage' level powerhouse, in command.
Injured?
After spending a month together, Hand Clan Feijian's eyes weren't blind, and he could naturally see that it was an act.
But even if he was worried about the Hidden Leaf Village, it was useless.
Because he couldn't do anything now, and any small action he took would be noticed.
"Alright, but I won't harm the Hidden Leaf Village ninjas, and you must fulfill the conditions!"
In the end, Hand Clan Feijian nodded in agreement.
There was no other way; Dong Ping had offered too much.
Moreover, even if he didn't agree, with his life in the other party's hands, it wouldn't be surprising if he were to be manipulated in some way.
The other party's soul cultivation was too profound, and he didn't dare gamble on whether they had soul techniques.
It could be said that Hand Clan Feijian was a smart person who could be manipulated.
If it were Hand Clan Hashirama, there wouldn't be any chance of success, so when Dong Ping initially discovered that the wrong person had been sealed, he was overjoyed.
Swish! A scroll unfolded before Hand Clan Feijian.
On it were research projects related to the Sky Tower, Anti-Gravity Barrier, Dark Rod, Power Plant, and more.
"These are the projects that need to be completed next!"
Dong Ping completely disregarded the other party's humanity.
After all, the other party was an Impure Body, and they could work non-stop for 24 hours, so these projects could be done together with Dong Ping.
The other party would be responsible for creation and development, while Dong Ping would take care of the completion.
In terms of creativity and development capabilities, the other party was the strongest in the Ninja World.
And in terms of execution, Dong Ping could guarantee that no one would surpass him.
"..."
Hand Clan Feijian's gaze at Dong Ping was extremely unfriendly.
If he didn't know that his strength wasn't a match and that he couldn't take action, he wouldn't mind using a 'Twin Explosive Tag Jutsu' forbidden technique to fight with him.
Even if he was already dead, he didn't need to be treated so disrespectfully, did he?
"Cough, cough!" Facing such a gaze, Dong Ping also felt a bit guilty, so he offered a compensatory condition, "Hand Clan Shoutree can be resurrected tomorrow, and I'll arrange five wives for him to quickly revive the Hand Clan!"
For the sake of the Hand Clan, he could only make Hand Clan Shoutree suffer a bit more.
Undoubtedly, many people before the transmigration would have wanted to experience this kind of suffering, and even Dong Ping was envious.
With this condition, Hand Clan Feijian also put away his murderous gaze and began to work.
