Chapter 800: The City's Deep-Rooted Tricks!
The operation took place at night.
If it were merely for Gaara's safety, it wouldn't have been necessary to go through all this trouble.
For Chiyo, resurrection meant trading one life for another, but for Tang Ping, it was merely a matter of casually sacrificing a White Zetsu.
However, when it came to the game with the Six Paths and the calculations involving the Ten-Tails, they had to be cautious.
Gaara and Kankuro, as agreed, entered the small, private hospital that had been prepared in advance during the late hours of the night.
Upon entering the hospital, the two discovered that they couldn't use their chakra, and the area was filled with an unfamiliar power.
Spirit Energy!
The power bestowed by the Skyeye Tower directly permeated this region, arrogantly blocking everything.
With this, they no longer had to worry about the Six Paths discovering anything.
Caution is the key to success.
Tang Ping didn't want his negligence to ruin everything at the last moment.
"Gaara, Kankuro!"
Temari appeared before the two and led them to the operating room.
"..."
Looking at the operating table before them, Kankuro glanced at Gaara with concern.
How could he not worry when they were suddenly called in for surgery?
"Don't worry, this is just an extra precaution, and it might save Gaara's life in the future!"
Tang Ping put on gloves and picked up a scalpel as he entered.
Although with his abilities, these were unnecessary, but sometimes, if you don't pretend, how can others know how tired you are?
It's all about the tricks of the trade!
These tricks were what allowed him to quickly win over Temari.
"I'll leave it to you!"
Temari glanced at Tang Ping and then pulled Kankuro away from the laboratory.
The laboratory door closed.
Gaara voluntarily lay down on the operating table and began inhaling the anesthesia gas.
This gas, prepared by Wildflower Lin, was incredibly effective. Even a Hyper Shadow Rank ninja, if caught unprepared, would be affected, let alone Gaara.
Once Gaara's panda eyes closed, Tang Ping immediately threw the scalpel and gloves into the trash can.
For him, these were truly unnecessary and would only hinder his performance.
First, he drew runes on Gaara's body, ensuring that if Gaara died, his soul would not depart to the Pure Land.
The soul was the biggest challenge in resurrection.
As long as the soul could be preserved, recreating Gaara's body was effortless for Tang Ping.
Inside Gaara's body, the sealed Shukaku sensed the disturbance in the seal and saw a giant hand descending.
"Ah, what are you doing? Don't touch me, old man!"
Even with its foul temperament, Shukaku was terrified.
After several minutes!
Tang Ping retracted his hand and then lay down on the small bed prepared in the corner to catch some sleep.
Yesterday, he had spent a lot of energy and stamina accompanying a group of girls on a shopping trip, so he needed to rest.
As for Temari?
Of course, he had instructed her beforehand that the surgery would take a long time, and she should come back the next day.
The next day!
Tang Ping woke up.
"What's going on with me..."
His hazy mind began to clear.
Especially when he saw Gaara on the operating table not far away, he immediately realized what was happening.
With a ninja's physique, even if he lay there for a night, or even a few days, nothing would happen, which was why he hadn't made any special arrangements.
As he was about to get up to wash up, he suddenly thought of something and immediately formed hand seals.
Bang!
A white mist passed by, and his appearance changed dramatically.
His eyes were bloodshot, and he looked incredibly tired, as if he had stayed up all night without sleep.
Brilliant!
Tang Ping was all about the tricks.
If the surgery had ended in just a few minutes, Temari might have thought it was a simple procedure, and she wouldn't have reacted at all.
But now, seeing that the surgery lasted from midnight until the next day and that he looked so exhausted, she would undoubtedly be deeply moved.
The mighty lord of the Blazing Sun had gone to such great lengths for her; she couldn't help but be touched.
The same action, performed by different people, carried different meanings.
For example, when it came to flirting.
Would a simp carrying takeout for a goddess have the same effect as a rich and powerful CEO doing the same?
Some things were indeed judged by looks and status.
These tricks were unknown to the ninjas of the Shinobi World, who were skilled in combat and conspiracy but naive and straightforward when it came to flirting.
The first impression was crucial!
The effect was truly remarkable.
Whoosh!
The door to the operating room opened.
"Tang Ping!"
Temari, who had been waiting outside the operating room all this time, immediately came forward to support him.
"Rest assured, I'm fine. Gaara just needs some rest, and he'll be discharged soon. But it's best to keep this matter among us, and don't mention it casually in private!"
Tang Ping extended his free hand to stop Kankuro, while also issuing a reminder.
Although the Six Paths Sage wasn't omniscient, if he wished to, he could keep an eye on the ninja without being noticed from the Pure Land. Therefore, it was necessary to take precautions.
At the same time, Kankuro was surprised to see a soft and delicate girl like Temari helping him, but even more so when a man like Kankuro came to assist.
"I understand!" Kankuro nodded, feeling concerned as he observed Tang Ping's poor condition.
From their appearances, the strong and beautiful Temari and the fresh-faced boy seemed like a perfect match.
Only Kankuro, standing beside them, seemed out of place.
Fortunately, he seemed to sense this and quietly entered the operating room to carry Gaara out.
In the hospital, a private room had been specially prepared for Gaara.
After all, his excuse for coming to the hospital was to have his physical condition checked.
As the Jinchuriki, this was entirely normal.
Next, Tang Ping took advantage of the opportunity to have Temari take care of him.
Normally, he wouldn't even dare to think about it.
However, with Temari feeling guilty, this wasn't an issue.
Today, Tang Ping was able to enjoy Temari's gentle treatment, a rare occasion considering she usually maintained a strong and aloof demeanor.
Lying in the hospital, he had everything he needed, and Temari even overlooked his attempts to take advantage of her.
It was only when Tang Ping asked her to change into the hospital guard uniform that she glared at him and chose to refuse.
One could say that his previous efforts in time management hadn't been in vain, as it directly led to the addition of another member to his harem.
This was done for the sake of harmony; otherwise, he might have even enjoyed the 'Night Shift Nurses' treatment.
Unfortunately, this VIP treatment lasted less than a day. After Gaara regained consciousness and was discharged, Temari had to return to the Land of Wind.
There were many matters to attend to there, and the three siblings were part of Yekura's core group for development.
Of course, in terms of strength, with the abundant resources they had received, the three siblings were now even stronger than they had been during the Fourth Shinobi World War in the original storyline.
After everyone left, Tang Ping didn't depart from the small hospital that had been set up for him. Instead, he continued to rest.
Yes, he needed some time to recuperate and restore his health.
This was also to avoid the 'Battlefield of Devils'.
However, staying there didn't hinder his work.
Network Construction!
This was his most important task at the moment.
Three Pure Land Towers, one of which was already completed at Myoboku Mountain, leaving only the Ryuchi Cave Pure Land Tower.
Once that was finished, the network could be established.
Nevertheless, even with only two Pure Land Towers temporarily, the range of faith collection had significantly increased.
Especially in the Land of Water!
Previously, there were still uncovered areas, but now they were all within the network's reach, even the southernmost regions.
The New Hidden Mist Village was now in control of everything in that region.
All countries and forces had to submit to the New Hidden Mist Village.
In the past, neither the Land of Water nor the Hidden Mist Village would have undertaken such a thankless task.
The more territory and population they had, the heavier the burden became.
For a fertile land like the Land of Fire, the more, the merrier.
However, for a harsh place like the Land of Water, occupying too much territory was truly disadvantageous. No matter how much they exploited the resources, they couldn't break even, and it often resulted in significant losses.
Times had changed.
For the Blazing Sun Faction, the environment wasn't a significant concern.
With the Hoki Legion under their command, even the harshest environments could be transformed. Moreover, Tang Ping's numerous technologies ensured their effectiveness.
In a sense, population equated to resources.
For the Blazing Sun Faction, population was their most crucial resource.
Therefore, sending the New Hidden Mist Village to conquer these overseas lands wasn't about financial gain but for the people.
According to intelligence, the combined population of these regions exceeded several tens of millions.
The primary reason was the vast area! Even if one place had a small population, the total number was still significant when added together.
In the past, they hadn't intervened because the faith collection range didn't cover these areas, making occupation pointless. Now that the coverage had expanded, it was only natural to take control.
At the same time, Tang Ping had recently come across an interesting task and decided to assign it to the younger generation to handle.
