A Journey Through the Universes

Chapter 163: Ringo



Chapter 163: Ringo

It was early morning when Tetsuya woke up.

He raised his eyelids and looked at Kushina's sleeping pug with a smile. Mischievous rays of the sun tried to wake the girl, but she was against it, and therefore completely disappeared into the veil.

Getting up, Uzumaki dressed and went to the bathroom.

There he washed his face and with the help of one technique completely cleansed himself.

The technique, by the way, was called simply 'Cleansing', but the jutsu itself was quite complicated, because it not only cleansed the body of dirt, but also cleaned the pores, removed dead roughened skin and removed toxins. The ladies would be just delighted with this, but not every jonin will be able to repeat this technique, so the jutsu passes them by.

After going down to the first floor, Tetsuya immediately entered the living room, where Tsunade and Mito were already waiting for him at the table.

Mito squinted with amusement And here is the one who did not let poor Kushina sleep.

Good morning, my love. Tsunade greeted me warmly

Morning. Mom, are you already aware of Tsunade's new powers?

- Yes. This is unbelievable, Tetsuya.

Tetsuya pointed at Tsuna's eyes with his gaze Yeah, do you want the same ones?

Mito grinned Son, who wouldn't want to?

Tetsuya nodded, pouring tea Great, when Kushina wakes up, ask her about the same, if she also wants, then I'll give them to you in the evening.

- OK. Are you going to practice now?

- Yes. I won't be here until tonight. By the way, you could immediately say that you just want to let me spend the night with Kushina alone

Looking at each other, Mito and Tsunade said at the same time Then there would be no surprise.

Tetsuya waved His hand He wasn't there anyway, after Tsunade's refusal, I immediately guessed what was what. For cougars like you to give up a night with me is just nonsense.

Mito squinted Yes, that's what, and your limbs are able to send a woman to heaven for some time.

They chatted all through breakfast, discussing all sorts of little things, and in the end Tetsuya teleported to the shelter.

There he reconstructed the training room for some time. I reinforced the walls, floors and ceilings, but the most important thing is the huge seal that was placed on the ceiling of the training room.

This fuin created artificial gravitational pressure. The pressure force was adjusted, so even Tetsuya had to sweat a lot to complete the usual list of workouts.

By the evening, for the first time in many years, Tetsuya felt slightly tired.

Sarutobi's Office

A lot of people were in Hiruzen's office. Clan leaders, advisors, and the most senior Jonin.

This was another meeting, but Sarutobi and Tetsuya were going to make it a little special.

Tetsuya and Madara stood side by side and talked quietly about little things.

For five minutes, the absolute majority of visitors to the office have been cautiously staring at Uzumaki's eyes, because he openly demonstrated Rinne-sharingan.

Uchiha and Hyuga looked at the powerful and previously unseen dojutsu with an ambiguous look. Especially Uchiha, because Rinne-sharingan had similarities with their clan dojutsu and for good reason.

Hiruzen coughed into his fist and attracted everyone's attention Ahem, before we start discussing what we usually discuss at meetings, I will make a statement...

Everyone carefully focused on Kaga.

I, Sarutobi Hiruzen, Sandaime Hokage resign from the post of Kage and appoint Madara Uchiha as my successor...

Silence... Everyone froze and could not believe their ears, although everyone was preparing for such a turn, but, according to their forecasts, it was supposed to happen no earlier than in five years.

In a week we will hold the inauguration and Madara will become a legitimate Kage.

Silence... Sarutobi expected that there would be at least some indignation, but there was a deathly silence.

Tetsuya broke the silence and extended his hand to Madara Congratulations.

- thanks. Uchiha nodded

It was a shot from the starting pistol.

Congratulations.

I think you'll make a good Kage.

It should be noted. Madara-san, I suggest you visit the best restaurant of the Akimichi clan.

Exactly! It's worth noting!

That's right!

Everyone started congratulating the future Hokage, and someone started sucking up slowly.

Further events developed very rapidly.

A week later, Madara successfully took over the post of Hokage and now his face was flaunted on a rock next to the faces of the past Kage.

The citizens were not very happy about the new Hokage, but since he was supported by everyone's beloved Shinobi God, they reacted to this with optimism.

A month later, Madara finally settled into a new place and performed his duties at the proper level.

As for Tetsui, he did not sit still all this time, moreover, he began to act.

With the help of diplomacy, tiny manipulations with genjutsu and a strong fist, he began to attach smaller countries with which it bordered to the land of Fire.

Tea Country, Bear Country, River Country, Rain Country, Iron Country...

Some resisted, while others willingly agreed, but the outcome was the same.

The borders of the land of Fire were inexorably expanding, which extremely unnerved the Daimyo and Kage of the remaining great countries.

It was unprecedented, usually they wouldn't dare to be silent and sit on their butt straight, but the power of Uzumaki Tetsui forced them to do it. They knew that if earlier, by uniting, they could somehow influence Konoha, now it was impossible.

As for Tetsui himself and his entourage, not much has changed in a month.

At night, he now has one more woman, but he did not even notice that the 'load" increased.

Daily training was bearing fruit, and his strength began to slowly creep up again.

The task "Tobirama Senju's Nightmare" was completed and the talents of "Cooking" and "Massage" were upgraded and Tetsui's ladies immediately noticed his improvement in these aspects. Now it's hard to call it a joke that they are ready to kill for his affection and food...

The situation with Orochi was relieved and even improved, Tetsuya noticed that he increasingly sees a desirable woman in his friend and the trembling inside him gradually decreased. The guy was surprised at how plastic the human mind is.

Mito and Kushina got tenseigan and together with Tsunade actively trained his strength.

Maito Guy and Kakashi continued to compete. Poor Hatake had to make great efforts to keep up with the user of the Power of Youth.

To their general surprise, Uchiha Obito began to rapidly gain strength and increasingly challenged them.

Perhaps soon all this will turn into a trio of eternal rivals.

Although Hiruzen said that he would retire and devote all his time to his family, he could not stay idle for a long time. As a result, he began teaching at the ninja academy and it was clear from him that he liked this job much more.

Hokage's Office

The rustle of paper and tired sighs broke the silence in the room.

Uchiha Madara looked with tired eyes at the mountains of paper, which had no end, no edge.

Sighing again, the lips of the Uchiha muttered It seems I'm nae * ali... It was even more interesting to catch cats...

The door opened abruptly Good afternoon!

Madara looked up and saw the joyful face of the red-haired guy, because of whom he found himself in this chair Why did he show up?

Tetsuya exaggeratedly pouted his lips Why so aggressively? I'm on business!

"What business?" I've got a lot of work to do... because of you...

It's time to take the next step. Tetsuya shrugged his shoulders Call Gokage-Kaidan. The meeting place is here in Konoha.

Madara slowly put down the brush Such a sharp meeting... We need a reason, and the meeting place on our territory does not look very good...

They will agree... The reason is simple, the unification of the Shinobi world, so write to them. Guards can take with them as much as they want, they can bring the whole army, the main thing is let them come.

A tiny smile formed on Madara's face Good... I think it's going to be fun soon.

Tetsuya grinned and shrugged his shoulders Who knows, who knows.

Three days later

As Tetsuya expected, the four Kages did not refuse and willingly agreed.

Today we arrived in Konoha: Sandaime Kazekage - Sakai Suzumo, Sandaime Tsuchikage - Oonoki, Sandaime Raikage -Hey and Yondaime Mizukage - Karatachi Yagura.

It was decided to hold the meeting immediately, as no one wanted to leave their villages unattended.

...

In a large room, four people were sitting at a large round table.

There was one bodyguard standing next to each of them.

Next to the Raikage was his son, Hey.

Sakai had Chiyo as a bodyguard, and Oonoka, Roshi - jinchuriki four-tailed.

Next to Mizukage stood Ringo Ameyuri, a sharp-toothed girl who was a swordsman of the mist and the owner of Kiba swords. Short red hair and a strange hairstyle with curls sticking out the top and loose hair at the same time.

Oonoki shook his head It's been a long time since this happened.

Raikage nodded Yes, but the topic of this Gokage-Kaidan is very interesting.

Mizukage smiled That's right.

Yagura looked very young, he could literally be mistaken for a child because of his short stature and childish facial features, but everyone knew that Mizukage was already over twenty. Among other things, he was also the jinchuriki of the three-tailed.

Kazekage sat silently with his eyes closed and listened attentively to the conversations.

It seemed that the Kage were having a simple friendly conversation, but this was just an attempt to defuse the situation and probe their opponents.

The door opened and Hokage came inside Sorry for the delay.

The four Kages nodded and focused more on Madara's bodyguard, whom Tetsuya was playing

Madara walked around the room and sat down at the table. Well, now the meeting can be considered open.

Oonoki asked first Hokage, what did your words about the unification of the Shinobi world mean?

These are not my words. Madara said calmly, folding his fingers into a lock

Tetsuya smiled Oh, those were my words. In general, I was the initiator of this meeting rather than the Hokage.

The four Kages only sighed, as they were almost completely sure that Tetsuya was the initiator of this meeting.

"I suggest you swear allegiance to me and help me win the title of Emperor for my humble person.

Silence... This was clearly not expected by the Kage... It was a very brazen request, especially for proud people, which Kage definitely were. Moreover, it can be called a betrayal, because they all served the Daimyo.

The son of Raikage Hey was ready to scream, but his father put his hand on his child in time.

Oonoki was also ready to explode, but he stopped himself in time when the moment came to mind how this muzzle years ago, alone, defeated his village and was not even out of breath.

Tetsuya smiled charmingly, activating Rinne-sharingan Before you are outraged by such an impudent request, I will tell you what the essence of this whole proposal is. And the bottom line is simple, I'm going to destroy the current world order and build a new one. If you want, I can call it a change in the Shinobi system and their position in the world, as well as the creation of eternal peace between people.

Kazekage, being the calmest, said A change of system?

- Yes. Tetsuya spread his hands Has it ever seemed silly to you that we, Shinobi, all serve the Daimyo?

Kage looked at each other, as if looking for an answer in each other's eyes, until Madara calmly said It always seemed so to me.

Suddenly, scratching her head, Ameyuri replied I was thinking that too.

Yagura was surprised by his guard Ringo?

Well, what about it? They are simple people, they have no power, but we serve them and, in general, depend on them, and they, in turn, bathe in gold and are free to sponsor us as they want.

Yagura was confused by this behavior of the bodyguard Ameyuri, we depend on each other...

The woman waved her hand Nonsense, we depend on the Daimyo, although it should be quite the opposite. Vaughn, take at least Suna's situation. Kazekage had to crawl in front of the Daimyo so that he would at least think about supporting his own Shinobi village, and not a foreign one...

Ameyuri! - Mizukage said sternly, being incredibly embarrassed Kazekage, I apologize for the words of my man...

Sakai calmly raised his hand, stopping Yagura There is no need to apologize, she is right in many ways.

Tetsuya smiled charmingly, "You're quite a brave girl.

Grinning and showing her sharp teeth, Ringo replied Not all women can be quiet and submissive, besides, I am a great swordsman of the mist and I always have something to say... For example, I can say that you are my type and very sexy, so I wouldn't mind taking a ride on your face.

Pfft! Chiyo burst out in a fit of laughter, trying to keep laughing

Hmm, the girl has a character. Madara said, leaning his cheek on his fist

Kage stared at Ameyuri in shock, especially Yagura, who clutched his head and cursed his decision to take Ringo as a bodyguard thousands of times.

Tetsuya was surprised, and then grinned Well, I know that a lot of women want me, but you are one of the few who finds the courage to tell me so openly.

Ringo spread her hands and closed her eyesThat's my character.

Really? Tetsuya tilted his head And this courage did not come by chance from the fact that you are going to die soon?

The girl tensed, as did everyone else in the room.

Yagura stood up Is this a threat?

Following her Mizukage, Ringo also replied in a surprised tone How do you know?

Yagura turned to his guardAmeyuri?

The girl sighed I have been hiding a very strange illness for a long time, Mizukage. I appealed to all the iryenins, but no one could give me a clear answer... The pain in my head is getting worse every day, and I feel that its apogee is waiting for me in a few days... I'm wondering how you found out about this, Uzumaki Tetsuya.

My eyes are capable of a lot. Tetsuya tilted his head and squinted If you want to live longer, then visit me tomorrow at my residence.

Can you help me? she frowned

If I can't help, no one can. he shrugged his shoulders

Yagura, exhaling, said Ringo, tomorrow is your day off, dispose of the time as you want.

Ameyuri smiled Thank you, Mizukage.

- Khmkhm. Oonoki coughed into his fist, attracting attention - I am very glad that the girl will be helped, but let's get back to the topic of Shinobi unification.

Yes, let's get back to what we're here for ... Tetsuya took a deep breath in his chest Ameyuri was telling the truth, we depend on the Daimyo, although the power and capabilities are completely on our side. Previously, before the creation of villages, we really were Shinobi, we were hired during wars, paid money, and we fought, but now? Now it is more reasonable to call us a regular army that protects the country. he shrugged his shoulders But since we are an army, why should we support ourselves and beg for money and missions from the Daimyo? Don't you think it's at least silly? With our help, the Daimyo intimidates the population and retains his power. When it's necessary, we kill those he doesn't like. We bring an incredible amount of money to the Daimyo and all his power, but do we get at least some of what we deserve?

There was silence for a while. Everyone pondered Tetsuya's words.

What do you suggest? Raikage said calmly

"As I said, you must swear an oath to me as Emperor and help establish a new order. The daimyo will basically have only nominal power, the rest will be for my governors. You will still be Kage, but your power will increase, as will the list of responsibilities.

Oonoki frowned The governors?

- Yes. I will choose who will be Kage and in which territories. However, I will choose him from the applicants who will be chosen by the past Kage. If they do not suit me, then I will reject them and ask them to find new ones. If the Kage does not suit me, then I will change it to a new one. Something like that.

Everyone had a reasonable question for a second: "What the hell are you going to be the emperor and why the hell will you have so much power?", but then they remembered who they were talking to, and all questions disappeared.

Daimyo will only be my tools for communication with the common people, you will connect me with Shinobi. All the money will go to me where I will already direct them to where they are really needed. I say in advance, there will be no Imperial treasury, all the money will go to the regions. If I want money, I can easily earn it.

Looking at the faces of Kage, Tetsuya saw that they were thoughtfully digesting what he said Besides, as the Emperor, I undertake to make the lives of my subjects as happy and easier as possible, which means I will go through all the regions and make their lands very fertile, moreover, farmers who will work for the Empire will receive special types of crops that were bred by me personally.

There will be no more wars, Shinobi will still perform missions, but their types will decrease significantly, since there will be no enmity. Bandits, nukenins, corrupt officials and other dirty bastards will always exist, which means that the ninja will have a job.

After finishing his speech, Tetsuya smiled That's all I wanted to say at this meeting. You can discuss it among yourselves and make a decision... However, I want to say one last thing... pressure burst out of Tetsuya's body and cracks crawled like snakes all over the room, and Rinne-sharingan began to shine mystically I will unite the world of Shinobi without your help. If war is needed for eternal peace to exist, I will start it.

Instantly, all the pressure disappeared, as did Tetsuya himself.

Everyone sat in silence with their heads down.

Suddenly, a woman's laughter rang out Haha, this is a man.

Everyone looked at Ameyuri, but did not comment on her exclamation in any way.
