"Master, does your promise still stand?" Zhang Bairen asked, noticing Koushirou's silence.
"A promise?" Koushirou paused for a moment, then replied, "It counts, of course it counts. Just tell me what you want me to do."
Your current status alone makes me unsure how to face you.
"Hehe, as long as it's a promise, let's keep it for now and talk about it later when I've thought of the terms," Zhang Bairen said.
"Ha, you little rascal." Koushirou chuckled and shook his head, resuming his usual demeanor.
"Bai Ren, starting tomorrow, you will go to the dojo to teach students."
"I'll teach you for three hours a day, and the rest of the time, you can learn Haki from me," Koushirou began.
“Okay, no problem.” Zhang Bairen did not refuse.
Focusing solely on cultivation can become monotonous and tedious. Having other things to do can make life more interesting.
In the Naruto world, Zhang Bairen, who left Konoha Village and moved to the capital of the Land of Fire, felt like a dragon returning to the sea or a tiger returning to the mountains, and his whole being became free.
The city where the daimyo resides is extremely safe and far more prosperous than Konoha.
In fact, the ninja world is very abnormal.
Ninja villages that control military force rely on funding from the daimyo and are controlled by the daimyo. Even rogue ninjas with strong ninjas will not easily attack nobles or daimyo.
This is their age-old rule and concept, just like the Celestial Dragons in the One Piece world, who are born superior even without any strength.
Therefore, the capital of the Land of Fire is far safer than imagined.
"Phew! No dark forces or roots, no telescopes, no scheming or backstabbing, this feeling is so comfortable!" Zhang Bairen, lying on the chair basking in the sun, squinted his eyes contentedly.
At this moment, Zhang Bairen felt a deep sense of joy and ease.
As long as you have money, you can enjoy a lifestyle second only to the nobility in the capital of the Land of Fire. Coincidentally, Zhang Bairen is quite wealthy.
The savings from the previous book and the profits from the business group allowed Zhang Bairen to accumulate more than 300 million.
That's equivalent to ten Sarutobi Asumas.
This amount of money is not comparable to that of the owners of large merchant groups or nobles who have inherited their wealth over generations, but within the Land of Fire, it is already considered very wealthy.
"Once this batch of goods is sold, we will have accumulated a billion yuan in savings."
"It's so great to make money without any initial investment!" Zhang Bairen thought to himself with satisfaction.
Inside the Hokage's office in Konoha Village.
Out of curiosity, Hiruzen Sarutobi bought Zhang Bairen's latest book.
"Battle Through the Heavens? What a strange name. Does it mean to break through the sky? Or does the true meaning of this title mean to break free from constraints, shackles, and existing shackles?!" Thinking about Zhang Bairen's departure from the village, Hiruzen Sarutobi couldn't help but ponder further.
"Inhale, exhale~" As he turned the pages of the book, Hiruzen Sarutobi took a satisfying drag on his cigarette.
"This is really good. Even the lowest grade of tobacco is far better than any tobacco I've ever bought before." Hiruzen Sarutobi was also extremely pleased.
The gifts given by Zhang Bairen contained impurities of varying purity.
The lowest purity tobacco only increases addictiveness slightly, and its effects are less likely to be detected.
Even the Hokage didn't notice the colorless and odorless substance in the tobacco.
As the book was opened, Hiruzen Sarutobi became immersed in the world of the novel.
"Xiao Clan, son of the clan chief, is looked down upon by his clansmen because his talent has declined..."
And then there's the old apothecary; it turns out the clan leader's son's talent was influenced by this soul...
"Wait, why do I have this strange sense of déjà vu? Is it just my imagination?" At this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi felt a sense of vigilance.
"The clan leader's son, looked down upon by everyone, the ring left by his mother, the soul of a man named Yao Lao, and a mysterious childhood sweetheart..." At this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi felt more and more familiar with it.
Finally, I suddenly woke up.
Isn't this just a carbon copy of Naruto?!
The son of the Fourth Hokage, looked down upon by the villagers, along with the Nine-Tails, and the young girl from the Hyuga clan...
"Could it be that that guy knew something, which is why he escaped from the village!?" Thinking of this, Hiruzen Sarutobi quickly used his telescope technique to start monitoring Naruto Uzumaki.
A few minutes later, Hiruzen Sarutobi breathed a sigh of relief.
Thankfully, Naruto is alright.
"Let me take another look. If there's really a problem, we must capture Zhang Bairen and interrogate him thoroughly!" At this point, Hiruzen Sarutobi was already showing his personal emotions.
My initially relaxed mood turned extremely heavy; I had wanted to unwind, but now I was looking at the novel before me with a scrutinizing gaze.
Soon, Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression changed from solemn to serious.
Half an hour later, he was completely absorbed in the world of the novel.
As evening fell and darkness gradually descended, Hiruzen Sarutobi slowly exhaled.
"Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river, never underestimate a young man's potential!"
"This book is truly inspiring!" Hiruzen Sarutobi exclaimed.
In the real world, various video games, movies, anime, and other forms of entertainment run rampant, but online novels have still carved out a bloody path for themselves.
Among them, Battle Through the Heavens is the most representative and is definitely a classic among classics.
Unsurprisingly, those in the ninja world who had never read this kind of novel before became addicted and obsessed.
Even Hiruzen Sarutobi was no exception.
After all, the thrill and excitement of such a novel is extremely intense.
It is said that in modern society, there are still drug addicts who have kicked their addictions by reading novels.
This is enough to prove the appeal of online novels to new readers.
Hiruzen Sarutobi watched until dusk, forgetting even to continue smoking his spiked tobacco and neglecting his daily duties.
This is enough to prove just how addictive the Ninja World version of Battle Through the Heavens is!
"Xiao Yan is a good kid. He was looked down upon by his clansmen, but he still had to refine pills to save his clan. With the help of Yao Lao, he also began his path of reversal."
Inspirational and passionate, it can be a great way to motivate children.
This book deserves to be widely promoted! Hiruzen Sarutobi picked up his pipe and took a slow puff.
Only then did he realize that the pipe had completely burned out.
"Time flies so fast? It's already time to get off work?" Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the sky in confusion.
After reading the novel, Hiruzen Sarutobi not only forgot his desire to capture Zhang Bairen, but also planned to personally promote the book.
Due to his lack of experience, Hiruzen Sarutobi saw the inspirational and passionate aspects of Battle Through the Heavens, but overlooked the novel's addictive nature.
Although, in Hiruzen Sarutobi's view, every novel has this effect.
For example, Jiraiya's Icha Icha Paradise...
Zhang Bairen, who was enjoying his dinner, was completely unaware of the enormous impact that the novel "Battle Through the Heavens" had on the ninja world.
Almost no one can resist this kind of inspirational and passionate novel for young people, whether they are adult ninjas or young ninjas.
The oppressive atmosphere, cultural desolation, and cruelty of the ninja world made them desperately need spiritual nourishment.
If the previous novel was a sensation throughout the ninja world, with all ninjas curious enough to buy and read it because of the Fourth Hokage's fame, then...
So even ordinary people, those without ninja talent, cannot resist the allure of Battle Through the Heavens!
This is the unique charm of online novels!
