"Having Izanagi really makes this guy hard to kill. I actually had to spend three whole seconds to use up all nine of his lives." Bai Ye complained.
Looking at the two heads before them—Hiruzen Sarutobi and Shimura Danzo, facing each other like a pair of lovers—everyone fell into a dead, suffocating silence.
"Alright, stop whining. Weren't all your clans forced into submission by the Uchiha and Senju before joining Konoha back then?"
"It hasn't even been a hundred years. What now? You people who used to kill each other on sight suddenly start calling yourselves one big family?"
"I'm just recreating exactly what you all did back in the Warring States era." Bai Ye sneered.
"Kakashi-sensei, surrender." At this moment, Uchiha Sasuke stood up, playing the good cop. "As long as you're willing to surrender, there's still room to salvage everything."
"I'll give you half an hour to persuade them. If they still don't surrender in half an hour, don't blame me. I'm going for a walk." Bai Ye said to Sasuke, then ignored the dark-faced shinobi and walked out.
On the way, bored, Bai Ye opened the chat group. They were currently discussing his earlier coronation.
[Deep Blue]: I'm in Konoha, taking a stroll. Nice scenery.
As he typed, Bai Ye leapt high, and from ten thousand meters above, snapped a full overhead shot of Konoha.
The entire 40-million-square-meter area of Konoha was now filled with over four thousand evenly spaced massive craters—neatly arranged. From above, it was aesthetic enough to soothe anyone with OCD.
**[Kanna Kimishima]: Senior Bai, is this really Konoha? Why does it look like it's full of potholes?"
[Deep Blue]: Yep. I blew it up. It looked fine just now. Forgot to take a picture for you guys before that.
Blew… blew it up?Everyone in the group was stunned by Bai Ye's "constructive" update.
[Playboy]: But didn't you arrive in Konoha less than a day ago…?
[Deep Blue]: Doesn't this prove I'm efficient? First day here and I already helped a fellow member resolve their problem—returned Konoha from a modern city back to its pastoral, rustic era. Also solved most of the villagers' eyesight issues.

The group fell into speechless silence. Everyone felt that Bai Ye had an inexplicable aura—wherever he went, disaster followed.
He was the embodiment of environmental destruction. Wherever he appeared, the local environment took a nosedive.
We definitely can't let Bai Ye enter our worlds lightly…This became the unanimous thought of all group members.
Half an hour later, Bai Ye returned and saw that the shinobi had actually been convinced.
"Huh? How'd you talk them into it?" Bai Ye looked at Sasuke curiously.
"I told them that once I resurrect the Uchiha clan in the future, I could bring back their comrades as well." Sasuke said calmly.
"Hey, you…" At this moment, Naruto finally woke up from unconsciousness. He looked at Bai Ye, about to speak—but Kakashi immediately chopped him on the neck and knocked him out again.
"Bai Ye-kun, I suppose I'm the Fifth Hokage of Konoha now." Orochimaru said, wearing a Hokage robe he somehow acquired, looking rather intrigued. He never expected this day would actually come.
"Mm. First thing is infrastructure. Konoha's a mess now. Most of the villagers are gone—only a few tens of thousands of injured shinobi left. Start with rebuilding." Bai Ye said.
The moment he said this, everyone around him stared at him with very strange expressions.
Wasn't this mess your fault?Now you suddenly care about infrastructure? Why didn't you hold back a little earlier?
"Hey, what's with those looks? My goal earlier was to destroy Konoha. And look—Konoha is destroyed. Now I want to rebuild it. What's the problem?" Bai Ye glared.
"The Uchiha district hasn't been destroyed. You can stay there for now." Sasuke coughed lightly, then added with a straight face.
"Next is population and supplies. Just take them directly from the Land of Fire. Tell that daimyo to bring half the national treasury over immediately." Bai Ye said, as if it were the most natural thing in the world.
Even Sasuke felt that sounded wrong.
"I don't think that's appropriate." Kakashi said. "We can't be that forceful with a king. We should negotiate. Otherwise, we might provoke the anger of every nation, and Konoha may be attacked from all sides."
"Negotiate what? Konoha today isn't the same as before. What qualifications does the Land of Fire have to negotiate with me? I already flattened Konoha—why should I let that pigheaded daimyo keep his seat?"
"I'll write a letter. Tell him to send half the treasury immediately. If he refuses, he's disrespecting me. Who does he think he is? I'm practically a foreign dignitary."
"First Konoha, then occupy the Land of Fire, then the other nations. Step by step, I've already planned it all out for you."
Bai Ye spoke with absolute dominance, leaving the others unable to argue. He was clearly aiming to overturn the entire world.
Soon, under his orders, the remaining Konoha shinobi began collecting corpses—planning to revive them later using White Zetsu bodies for Edo Tensei, followed by Rinne Rebirth.
A shinobi named Yamato began tirelessly using Wood Release to build houses. By the end of the day, he was nearly drained dry.
By dusk, Orochimaru approached Bai Ye and tossed a stack of documents in front of him. "Bai Ye-kun, here you go."
"Huh? What's this?" Bai Ye picked it up. On it were names like Hyūga Hinata, Yamanaka Ino, and over a dozen more.
Bai Ye looked up, confused. "Why are you giving me this?"
"For sleeping, of course." Orochimaru said naturally. "This is a list of the remaining kunoichi in Konoha. Didn't you conquer Konoha because you wanted this? So I'm fulfilling your wish."
"…?"Bai Ye was dumbfounded."Who told you I conquered Konoha for women? I clearly did all this to help Sasuke get revenge! This is slander—blatant defamation!"
Now it was Orochimaru's turn to be stunned, recalling what Bai Ye had said before the battle:
'You Konoha villagers see me coming, yet you don't offer your wives and daughters and wealth for my enjoyment? Instead you stand there squawking? You're courting death yourselves.'
"…That doesn't mean I actually planned to do anything! Got it?" Bai Ye said.
Got it.Orochimaru's expression turned knowing.So this guy wants both women and dignity. Shouldn't have asked him first.
Better to just sneak two pretty girls into his bed at night and be done with it.
The books all say he's a notorious pervert rampaging through the ninja world—what's he pretending to be a gentleman for now?
