Chapter 896: Arrangements!
Chapter 896: Arrangements!
"Hmm, if we don't act fast, it might not just be the ramen shop, but our lives as well!"
Tang Ping's tone was light.
After all, he wasn't the one in a hurry.
In the original plot, the One Laugh Ramen Shop was fine even after Pain's Cargo.
But as he had said, that was in the 'original plot'.
This time, Konan would 'spice things up', and if the One Laugh Ramen Shop still existed, it would be destroyed unless Rikudo himself intervened.
"Then I should tell..."
Shonju was about to inform the two of them, but he felt a gaze fixated on him.
Quan, with a gentle yet firm voice, said,
"You can't!"
If Shonju didn't cooperate, she had a million ways to make him comply.
Don't forget the path she had chosen.
Genjutsu + Speed!
She had always displayed terrifying speed.
But in reality, her genjutsu was equally terrifying.
The backlash from Itachi's Moon Reader made it clear that she was strong in genjutsu.
Therefore, a single glance from her made Shonju 'obediently' comply, and it wasn't that simple.
"Move, I command you to move!"
Shonju's mind kept telling his body to move.
But his body refused: "Don't move, I don't know how."
Even a Shadow-level strong ninja, with Quan's Eternal Mangekyou Sharingan, could easily control others with genjutsu.
A mere Shonju had no chance to resist.
"Alright!"
Tang Ping reached out, signaling Quan to release the genjutsu.
Though it was for Shonju's benefit, he didn't want to force it, so he gave him some 'face'.
Of course, if the other party didn't want face, he would give them face.
After all, he valued the other party's sister and grandfather, not Shonju, who was completely worthless.
Yes, in Tang Ping's eyes, the other party had no value.
The only value was in tying down those two people. If not for this value, he wouldn't have resurrected them, let alone have this patience.
"If you listen obediently from now on, I guarantee you'll see the Heavenly Fortress Tower and the Water Plant father and daughter. I'll also ensure you won't experience the hardships of the past. But if you don't listen..."
Tang Ping didn't finish his sentence, but he knew Shonju would complete it himself, even scaring himself.
The unknown was the most terrifying!
So he used both the carrot and the stick.
Yes, the task of ending Shonju's 'stud duty' was Senju Tobirama's words before his departure.
Now, the number of Senju descendants was close to a hundred, and with this number, if the next generation made an effort, the Senju Clan could be revived. There was no need to put all the pressure on Shonju.
Moreover, Shonju's escape made Senju Tobirama realize that the oppression was indeed severe, so he changed his mind.
"What!" Shonju's eyes lit up when he heard Tang Ping's words, and he eagerly asked, "Do you mean I'll be free in the future?"
Before this, he had been confined to one place, like being 'imprisoned', hence his words.
"Hmm, on the condition that you obey orders!"
Tang Ping nodded.
"I'll definitely obey!"
Shonju nodded repeatedly.
Regarding the Sunlight Nation and the Sunlight Will, he actually agreed with them. After all, they were more magnificent and noble ideals than the Fire Will.
Furthermore, they not only talked but also put their ideals into action.
If not for those hellish days, he wouldn't have escaped to the Allied Forces.
However, after reaching the Allied Forces, he realized the kind of life the people under their rule lived.
It was like heaven and earth.
This fact further solidified his belief in the Sunlight Will.
In other words, it was all thanks to the contrast with the Allied Forces!
If not for them, Tang Ping's Sunlight Nation would have been criticized as exploitative.
After all, working almost twelve hours a day with little compensation, barely enough to keep one from starving, was the norm.
But even with such treatment, compared to the Allied Forces, it was like heaven.
Even for this reason alone, Tang Ping would never truly eradicate the Allied Forces.
The Lightning Country was not only a breeding ground but also a future role model. With their contrast, the Sunlight Nation could prove its superiority.
After dealing with Shonju, the next step was to find a way to convince Ichiraku and Shobu to relocate to the Heavenly Fortress Tower.
This would be extremely difficult for others, but for Tang Ping, it was a breeze.
Confirming that they were ordinary people and with Quan by their side, a simple Genjutsu suggestion would easily convince them.
With her mastery of Genjutsu, there was no need to worry about being detected.
The most crucial point was that despite their notable reputation, they weren't on Rikudo's watch list, so there was no need to worry about any unexpected issues.
The Konoha upper echelons only monitored Ninjas or descendants of the Ninja Clan, not ordinary citizens.
Therefore, as long as Ichiraku and Shobu chose to leave Konoha, no one would stop them.
It's just a noodle shop, after all.
Even if the food is delicious, it's not worth holding them back.
What if this action causes dissatisfaction from the father and daughter?
No need to worry, even if they resent Tang Ping, he doesn't care.
If it weren't for Shonju, he wouldn't have wasted this effort to take the fall.
"Quan, leave the rest to Shonju!" Tang Ping said, then turned and left the corner.
Time was running out for them!
If they didn't have a good reason, hastily leaving the village would raise suspicions.
However, using the excuse of rushing to 'return home and marry' Shonju would naturally not be a problem.
With Quan's presence, nothing was an issue.
A simple suggestion was all it took!
Unless there was a Shadow-level powerhouse present, not even Genjutsu was necessary.
The appearance of a Super Jinchuuriki-level Genjutsu expert could effortlessly sweep away all obstacles.
The process could only be described as silky smooth.
By noon, the procedure was underway, and by afternoon, not only were the village departure formalities completed, but even the Sarutobi clan's properties were sold.
Ah!
After the Uchiha clan's annihilation and the Hyuga clan's escape, the Sarutobi clan became the largest landowners in Konoha, backed by the F4.
They owned numerous shops, houses, and other properties in the core areas.
However, after Chamaru's 'Carrying Rice' event, the Sarutobi clan would be the most significant losers.
People can be revived, but destroyed buildings cannot be restored.
It's unknown if any Sarutobi clan members will go to the rooftop, which is quite exciting.
Of course, Tang Ping had no idea about this. He wandered through Konoha, deliberately reducing his presence, wanting to take in the sights of this Shinobi World's center.
Indeed, at least in the original story, this place was the heart of everything.
But now, things were different.
The Heavenly Fortress Tower was the true center of the Shinobi World.
Whether it was economics or population, the tower overwhelmingly dominated Konoha.
Even their reputation surpassed Konoha's!
In the past, Konoha was the leader of the Five Great Ninja Villages, and this reputation alone was enough to make it the 'center of the Shinobi World.'
However, with the Sunlight Country defeating numerous Ninja Villages and nations, including the Five Great Ninja Villages, it directly claimed the title of 'Strongest,' naturally overshadowing Konoha's fame.
It was only due to the 'Sealed Off' technique that Konoha still existed. Otherwise, Konoha would have been long gone.
However, Konoha's status as the center of the Shinobi World would soon vanish.
Chamaru was about to attack.
After his 'Carrying Rice' event, Konoha, destroyed in an instant, would no longer be qualified to compete with the Heavenly Fortress Tower for the title of the 'center of the Shinobi World.'
Currently, under the pressure of the Sunlight Country, Konoha had no choice but to open up a vast amount of resources to cultivate Ninjas, resulting in a noticeable increase in their numbers.
In the past, resources would have been insufficient.
But with the massive threat of the Sunlight Country, the Daimyo and merchants fully invested in the Ninja Village, ensuring an abundance of resources.
"Run a thousand laps around the village, and if you can't, there will be extra training!"
A voice rang out from the side.
Tang Ping turned to see a boy with a green bodysuit, a pot-like head, and thick eyebrows, resembling a Kappa, running swiftly.
Lee!
The boy who could be considered the most unfortunate cockroach.
His teacher, Gai, had died at Tang Ping's hands, and his two teammates had become part of the Sunlight Country. Only he was left alone in Konoha.
After Lee passed by, Tang Ping spotted a familiar Ninja team.
