Hearing Kairen mock his maneuvering, the daimyō immediately refused to accept it.
"That's not a small amount—exactly thirty billion. To kill you… the daimyo's mansion is practically emptied!"
Kairen's gaze became serious: "So that means… you're very brave!"
The daimyō nodded: "I'm super brave, okay? Those few juniors who wanted to snatch my daimyō position—I even scattered their ashes!"
Kairen ignored this guy and turned his gaze to the Cloud Family.
At this moment, beside Cloud Kairen stood a beautiful mature woman, bearing extraordinary poise, her face full of spring.
By the Cloud Family's members there were many women, warblers and swallows, all of top beauty.
Cloud Kairen walked over with that beautiful woman and whispered to Kairen:
"There are plenty of women in the daimyo's mansion. It would be wasteful to 'dispose' of them—just give them to the comrades!"
Kairen swept a glance around; they were all beautiful women around thirty.
After all, he was someone who cared about reputation; for a shadow clone to openly snatch others' wives was really losing reputation.
Kairen cursed softly: "You're all part of my chakra—why are you so lusty and impatient?"
Cloud Kairen immediately protested: "Aren't shadow clones people? We work like oxen and horses for you; you eat the meat and won't even let us drink a little soup."
"Besides, we're one and the same. If I sleep with them, isn't it the same as you sleeping with them?"
Kairen suddenly froze—right, that's true!
He still reminded them: "You must not force them!"
Cloud Kairen nodded: "Rest assured, they're noble ladies, pampered and spoiled, and naturally understand leaning on the strong."
"Plus we're young and vigorous—they're secretly delighted inside!"
Seeing Cloud Kairen properly arrange these innocent women, Kairen nodded.
But suddenly, he sighed inwardly.
He too wanted to be as unrestrained as the shadow clones, but he couldn't. The women around him were all peerless beauties.
To capture their hearts, he'd have to give up an entire forest.
But it didn't matter—as long as that happiness was transmitted to me, that's enough.
Tsunade walked over and asked Kairen: "How are you going to deal with the daimyō?"
Kairen thought for a moment—before, he cut off his head to offer to heaven, but now he'd changed his mind, and a wicked idea arose.
"I'll put a bounty of ten billion on his head. If he can survive tonight, then he's truly lucky."
Tsunade folded her arms and looked at the daimyō.
Still trapped in Kairen's genjutsu, he dumbly didn't know what his fate would be.
She shook her head: "Whatever you like! There's plenty of work coming up!"
The Land of Fire has changed hands; the ninja village directly kidnapped the daimyō—this is the first time from the Warring States era to the ninja village era.
Whoever it is, just from Konoha's situation alone, the ninja world is about to change.
The other four great nations will definitely react strongly.
Daimyōs and nobles will not silently watch ninjas threaten their status.
Though the situation was critical, Tsunade instead smiled a little.
With Kairen—so long as he's here—there's no need to worry about anything.
Kairen said to Tsunade: "Tsunade, now that I control the Land of Fire, you become Hokage, I'll be the daimyō in the shadows. We, man and woman paired together, will rule the entire ninja world."
Tsunade nodded: "It's all up to you! Whatever you want to do, I'll support you."
Hearing Tsunade's declaration, Kairen suddenly expressed a thought: "I plan to open a harem. Tsunade will be the mistress of the harem, so how about—"
"Hey!"
A monstrous strength punch suddenly smashed onto Kairen's head, directly pounding him into the ground like a gopher.
Tsunade scolded: "You little lecher! Dream on. Even the daimyō is monogamous—yet you want a harem. Are you looking to die?"
Kairen sighed in his heart.
The harmonious wives-and-concubines of web novels are pure lies.
Women, just like men, are full of possessiveness.
Any woman with a brain would never share a man with someone else.
As someone educated in the new era, Kairen suddenly missed the system of the old era.
Even ministers would advise the emperor to expand the harem to strengthen the royal family.
Arrangements for the daimyo's mansion went quickly. With a single genjutsu from the Uchiha clan members, they immediately confessed all the vile things they'd done in life.
"I'm a beast—such a young girl…"
"I'm a beast too—such an old woman…"
One after another of heinous crimes were exposed, leaving the onlookers utterly stunned.
The lower limit of these nobles was simply limitless!
Anything a person could think of—or not think of—they had done.
Little girls, mothers and sons, fatties, little boys…
This is even wilder than Japanese videos! More male-male than male-male.
Most importantly, one minister liked to eat human flesh—one meal every day—and heads, at that.
The villagers listening were full of anger. Before, they'd still feared these noble lords a bit, but now they were truly filled with killing intent.
No one can hear these evil deeds and remain unmoved—unless you're really not human.
The nobles divided humans into two kinds: people, and people who play with people.
"Kill them!"
"Kill them!!"
Public fury surged, as if the people's wisdom had awakened.
Tsunade's face was filled with anger. She shouted loudly to the surrounding villagers: "Rest assured—evil will meet evil retribution, good will meet good retribution. These people will receive the punishment they deserve."
Kairen's shadow clone mixed among the villagers—it was someone from the Jiangdong navy.
"Princess Tsunade is right. The ninja world must also have heavenly justice. From now on, we abandon the daimyō and follow Princess Tsunade's lead."
"Right! Nobles are disgusting—we must overthrow them!"
"Long live Princess Tsunade, long live the Fourth!"
Once the cry of "Fourth" rang out, the whole village instantly fell into chaos.
"Long live the Fourth!"
"Long live the Fourth!!"
Kairen smiled faintly: "This is the will of the people!"
He produced a Fourth Hokage robe and slowly draped it over Tsunade's shoulders.
"Tsunade, from now on, you are the Fourth!"
White robes with flames at the hem—Tsunade at this moment was heroic and valiant, full of the aura of a female general. Seeing her made Kairen want to take her from behind.
He whispered: "Tsunade, can you wear this outfit tonight?"
Tsunade gently scolded Kairen: "This is work attire—it's restrictive to wear."
Kairen laughed: "I just like seeing Tsunade at work. How about tonight we go to the Hokage building…"
"You little lecher—dream on!"
In the end, Tsunade was still not as shameless as Kairen.
After all, she was still human; Kairen had long since become a wolf wearing human skin.
"Enough—Tsunade has become Hokage, and I have become the man of the Hokage. That counts as fulfilling a childhood dream."
When his former self was small, like most in the village, he shouted every day about becoming Hokage.
Tsunade looked around—empty and desolate—the whole village had returned overnight to before liberation.
She patted Kairen's shoulder: "The village's reconstruction is up to you!"
Kairen nodded and suddenly made a deal: "As long as I rebuild the village, tonight you must wear the Hokage robe and go with me to the Hokage building."
Tsunade was a bit helpless and secretly pinched Kairen's ear.
"What exactly are you thinking? The bed at home is so big—can't you sleep there? You must go to the workplace!"
Kairen laughed inside.
What do you know?
The four Hokage watching your bravery—the Will of Fire instantly maxed out.
Kairen suddenly threatened: "If you don't agree, then I… I just won't do it!"
Tsunade could only agree: "Okay, okay—have it your way! Have it your way!"
Kairen's face was full of joy.
Tsunade secretly glanced toward a big tree in the corner—since Hashirama and Tobirama weren't paying attention here, she let out a breath of relief.
Secretly thinking that staying with Kairen too long had eaten her conscience—actually planning to do that kind of thing, under the portraits of the two grandfathers…
Tsunade hurried to deal with proper matters.
The noble lords were hung on crosses, covered in rotten egg liquid; many people even threw durians.
Public fury surged—these people couldn't be allowed to stay.
She said to Kairen: "I'll leave them to you. Remember—make them regret coming into this world."
Kairen nodded.
Though his mind was lewd, he still had a sense of decency and hadn't sunk to that level.
He summoned Canon and ordered him: "I'll leave it to you. Make sure they experience ecstasy and agony!"
Canon nodded, giving an evil grin: "I know there's a prison in the Land of Fire—it's full of men-loving-men. In less than a month… they'll die of pleasure."
Kairen waved his hand: "So be it!"
Canon requested Kairen: "Boss, those noble ladies leave them to us!"
Kairen was helpless: "All right! Remember to pay them!"
Those women weren't clean either—so let them serve as official courtesans of Kairen's legion!
Canon beamed: "Many thanks, Boss. Oh, right!"
Canon remembered something and said to Kairen: "The ninja clans who followed Sarutobi before have all surrendered—how should we deal with them?"
Kairen said calmly: "Follow procedure—genjutsu interrogation. Heavy offenders beheaded and their whole families turned into prostitutes; light offenders released."
"And those clans that participated with Sarutobi—strip their clan names. Everything must have a price. The establishment of a new dynasty must make room for a large number of people."
Canon nodded.
Kairen continued, saying, "And those old men who plotted against the Second, check whether any of them still aren't dead. If there are, send them to the other side."
"Even the dead ones must not be spared. Dig up the coffins and scatter the ashes over the Second's grave."
Canon kept nodding. The Kairen Legion always remembered one rule.
Don't touch matters involving personal entanglements with people.
"Go!"
"Okay!"
Kairen slowly walked toward the two zombies.
Hashirama and Tobirama looked at the scene in the village.
Although Hashirama wore a mask, he was serious from head to toe.
"Never thought the nobles we served were such a group of people. We really misjudged them."
Tobirama snorted. "Turning power into luxury—this kind of thing existed before, and will exist in the future. No matter the era, it's impossible to eliminate it."
Hashirama sighed. "The pitiful part is… we ninjas fight desperately for them, charging into battle."
Tobirama suddenly said, "Big brother, you must understand one thing: ninja is a profession that works for money. Only when nobles have needs can ninjas have jobs to do."
Hashirama looked at Tobirama. "You mean… we ninjas are their accomplices."
Tobirama nodded. "Every day the village receives many clients' missions. Those missions are all sorts of bizarre things. Some can't see the light of day, so they're handed to the Anbu."
"Many matters are absurd, but if you don't do them, other ninja villages will. More importantly, they pay far too much!"
Hashirama was shocked. "This—"
"Heh… big brother, now you understand, right? For ninjas to develop, they can't separate from war."
Hashirama felt a headache. "Sigh… which side should I stand on?"
He was also a ninja, still wearing a forehead protector, and had to think of his peers.
Kairen's voice sounded softly. "Change professions and become state soldiers."
Hashirama looked at Kairen. "Soldiers, samurai?!"
Kairen shook his head.
"Not those idiots who carry swords and do nothing all day, but soldiers who defend the country—hmm… like the new-style samurai of the Land of Iron."
"The state provides salaries; they're responsible for fighting wars."
Hashirama had another headache.
"More wars again! Can't the ninja world be peaceful?"
Kairen suddenly replied, "Not wars of the ninja world."
"Then where?"
Kairen looked to the sky.
"Aliens! The world we live in is not alone; there are far, far too many extraterrestrial civilizations."
"Weapons won't rest, wild horses won't return to the plains, wars won't cease. This is the normal state of civilizational development."
Hashirama rubbed his forehead.
"Sigh… the ninja world won't fight, but we'll fight aliens? This universe, seriously, can't everyone just get along?"
Tobirama was somewhat curious about extraterrestrial civilizations, so he asked, "You know the world of aliens?"
Kairen nodded, speaking straightforwardly without blushing or panting.
"On the distant Planet Vegeta there's a group of Saiyans who can turn into giant apes. They mainly invade other people's planets."
"They clear civilizations from planets and sell them to space merchants at suitable prices."
Hashirama was a bit shocked. "This… using a planet as a commodity—such a thing is simply unbelievable."
Tobirama analyzed, "The universe has existed for tens of billions of years; you can never know to what extent extraterrestrial civilizations have developed."
"Using planets as trade goods is hard to imagine, but not impossible."
You actually believed it!
Kairen was shocked—he had just made it up casually.
"What other civilizations are there? Tell us more."
Kairen continued making things up. "There's also a Titan star, on which there is a spirit…"
Kairen then went on popularizing cosmic civilization studies for the two Hokage.
With only brief information, Tobirama analyzed a lot.
"The civilizations you mentioned are mostly extremely aggressive war civilizations. Perhaps… the universe is a dark forest."
"All civilizations must arm themselves, carefully hiding in the shadows of the forest, guarding against being wiped out by others, and greedily devouring other civilizations to strengthen themselves."
Tobirama's posture surprised Kairen, but he then shook his head and said to Hashirama,
"Grandfather!"
"What?"
"The village needs to be rebuilt now. We need your Wood Release."
Hashirama pointed at himself. "Have me use Wood Release to build houses!"
Kairen nodded.
Hashirama suddenly laughed. "That's good too. To think that even as a dead man I still have so much use! Let's go! Let's build a beautiful Konohagakure."
Kairen then said to Tobirama, "Second , I've already had shadow clones raid the homes of those who framed you back then."
"We'll soon drag them here to your grave and behead them. Are you satisfied?"
Tobirama: ⊙﹏⊙‖∣°
