Chapter 894: Don't Treat Me With Kid Gloves Just Because I'm Delicate!
Kuu!
A boy with gray hair and brown eyes, his right hand wrapped in bandages.
Tang Ping recognized him at first sight, not because of his appearance, but because of the red Tailed Beast robe that enveloped him.
The Pseudo Nine-Tails Jinchuriki!
The distinctive evil chakra instantly confirmed his identity to Tang Ping.
However, what puzzled Tang Ping was the boy's strength, which was somewhat beyond his expectations.
So strong! Despite having only one chakra fox tail, his power was comparable to that of an Elite Jonin. At this moment, he was swinging his bandaged right hand, shattering a large boulder.
The combination of his impressive strength and attack power left everyone observing from the edge of the testing ground satisfied.
"As expected of an Artificial Jinchuriki, his combat prowess is indeed remarkable. If he stays in Konoha and learns more ninjutsu, his strength will only grow!" Mizuhara Gen praised and suggested.
By letting him stay in Konoha, they would also have the opportunity to brainwash him.
Under the Fire Will, this 'weapon' created by the Guardian Ninja might even become Konoha's.
"No, Kuu must return to Kyoto with us. We're here only to retrieve those resources and absorb the Nine-Tails' chakra. He can't stay in Konoha!"
A Guardian Ninja with shoulder-length white hair and a cold, determined expression spoke up.
He Ma!
He was also the leader of the radical faction among the Guardian Ninja and Kuu's father.
Note that in the original storyline, he was defeated by Asama because he insisted on the Daimyo ruling the Ninja Village. He then attacked Konoha.
But in Tang Ping's Shinobi World, none of that happened.
Compared to the 'Double Jade' incident, the Sunlight Nation was an even greater threat to their survival.
After all, they had eliminated the nobility and abolished the Daimyo, something the Guardian Ninja could never accept.
Damn! If the Sunlight Nation was going to eliminate even their boss, there was nothing left to say. They had to fight.
So, the Guardian Ninja's target shifted from the initial 'Double Jade' dispute to first eliminating the Sunlight Nation.
Whether they succeeded in eliminating the Sunlight Nation or not is another story, but the relationship between the Guardian Ninja and the Ninja Village underwent a substantial change.
Things were looking up!
Family, who could have imagined this?
With the Sunlight Nation as a huge threat, the Ninja Village and the Guardian Ninja became incredibly close.
After all, if they didn't cooperate closely, no one would be able to escape.
After the relationship improved, He Ma naturally didn't act according to the original storyline. Instead of attacking Konoha, he brought his son with him, intending to collaborate with Konoha to cultivate Kuu into the strongest combat tool.
Compared to the real Nine-Tails, this 'Pseudo Jinchuriki' Kuu indeed had weaker potential.
But what they needed was not potential but immediate combat power.
Since Kuu didn't have a Tailed Beast within him, as long as he could withstand the chakra erosion, his strength would increase with the Nine-Tails' chakra inside him.
No risk of a rampage!
This was their greatest advantage.
And this was also where the storyline differed.
In other words, as long as there was an abundant supply of the Nine-Tails' chakra, Kuu could grow wildly.
However, the Nine-Tails was under Konoha's control, so even if the Guardian Ninja was reluctant, they had to cooperate.
If it were Jiraiya, he would never agree to this.
But the Hokage System was different.
In their eyes, Naruto was merely a tool. By letting him contribute some of the Nine-Tails' chakra, they could gain a powerful immediate combat force, which was an incredibly beneficial deal.
So they agreed without hesitation, even keeping it a secret from Jiraiya.
Hmm, Jiraiya was indeed strong, but in other aspects, he was genuinely naive. With the power now in the hands of the two Advisor Kage and the Hokage System, keeping it from him while he diligently trained was not a problem.
Training.
This was what Jiraiya was doing every moment now.
After several encounters, he realized that his once-proud strength was fundamentally insignificant.
He even regretted his past laziness countless times. If he had diligently trained, perhaps Mount Myoboku wouldn't have been destroyed, his teacher wouldn't have died, Tsunade wouldn't have been captured, Gai wouldn't have sacrificed himself to save him... and so on.
The current Jiraiya understood that strength was the ultimate truth.
When the Hokage took on the role not out of personal desire but because the village needed him, it was no wonder he seemed to disappear, dedicating all his time to cultivation and having no time to appear in public.
In the core laboratory, Tang Ping witnessed the dark and bloody transaction between Konoha and the Fire Country.
Regarding Kuu, the 'Pseudo Nine-Tails Jinchuriki', although he had been somewhat tempted before, he no longer had any interest. After all, no matter how much you enhance it, it's still just that.
Even for a regular power, let alone the Five Great Ninja Villages, it would be a headache. But in the Sun Nation, there was more than one who could take on the Nine-Tails alone, let alone Kuu, who possessed the Nine-Tails' chakra.
If he became the Fire Country's trump card, it would not only boost their confidence in facing the Sun Nation but also prevent them from scattering and wasting time and energy hunting these guys down.
Indeed, Tang Ping only wanted to understand their trump card, not to destroy it.
Even if he could destroy this trump card, they could always prepare a new one, and he would be caught in a never-ending cycle.
It was better to let them prepare the trump card that he knew about, so he could easily deal with it when the battle began.
After figuring this out, Tang Ping quietly left the core laboratory and headed to the mission center.
All Root Division's actions were recorded here.
The information about Hyuga Hinata's incident was also obtained from the mission center.
Root Division was too careless with people, so it was necessary to take precautions. Therefore, it was best to check on the recent plans first.
Sitting in the tightly guarded mission center, Tang Ping felt right at home, only missing a bottle of happy water.
Tang Ping saw one bloody and dark mission scroll after another.
Tang Ping showed no reaction to these at all.
Respect others' fate, and let go of the urge to help!
Tang Ping understood this principle very well. He wasn't some saint; as long as it didn't involve his people, he was happy to watch the show.
Without these evil forces as a contrast, how could the Sun Nation's goodness shine?
"Wow!"
Tang Ping's eyes lit up with anticipation as he read the latest scroll.
Covert Operation Plan!
The scroll detailed how Root Division would send Ineno to infiltrate his side, using her beauty to capture his heart and steal intelligence, and even poison him at a critical moment.
This was... too perfect!
Tang Ping's eyes gleamed with excitement.
He had always wanted to experience a beauty plan, but no one had ever used it on him before. He hadn't expected someone to do so now.
Regarding this strategy, Tang Ping had only one thought.
Don't pity me because I'm a delicate flower; come at me!
Carefully, Tang Ping put the mission scroll back in its place.
Tang Ping was well aware of Root Division's security measures, ensuring no one would know the scroll had been read by an outsider.
After handling these matters, Tang Ping left Root Division and returned to the hotel to rest.
The next day!
Tang Ping had just woken up when Quan hurried in.
"Found it!"
She spoke softly.
And this so-called 'find' had only one target.
Senju Tobirama!
With Kakashi, the local expert, investigating his whereabouts wouldn't be easy.
"Oh, where is he hiding?"
Tang Ping was very curious about where the other party would hide.
"One Laugh Ramen!"
Quan spoke of a place that Tang Ping couldn't describe.
One Laugh Ramen! But it was a very famous place in Konoha.
The legendary Otsutsuki One Laugh, only those in the know would understand.
Tang Ping hadn't expected Senju Tobirama to be hiding in such a place.
"Let's go and see!"
Tang Ping stood up and prepared to meet the other party, intending to take him away.
Konan's intelligence was sent a few days ago, stating that Sasuke had captured the Eight-Tails and returned, but it was indeed a severed tail, and now they were starting to capture the Nine-Tails.
Capturing the Nine-Tails!
This meant Naruto would come to Konoha, and people had already set off, so they could arrive at any time.
Senju Tobirama's strength didn't seem weak, after all, he was a Jonin.
But compared to Naruto, it was not worth mentioning, so it was necessary to take him away in advance.
The two left the hotel and strolled through Konoha, soon arriving at the unchanged One Laugh Ramen, which remained unchanged.
