Chapter 322 A New Era Begins in the Ninja World!
"This is the Spirit Platform Realm..."
The group looked around at the world, which was exactly the same as their real-world perception.
After Minato Namikaze's "friendly exchanges" with the various film studios, they have all come to a profound understanding of what humility truly means.
They also understood what kind of enemies the ninja world would face. Therefore, if the ninja world continued to fight amongst itself and did not progress, it would die! In that case, the entire ninja world would be drained dry and sacrificed!
Now an opportunity to become stronger is right in front of them; it remains to be seen whether they can seize it!
As for those who would rather die than comply... well, there's nothing more to say. In short, if you're so capable, then don't use it!
There weren't many people who came this time, just the Five Kage, Kaguya, Nagato, and Hiruzen Sarutobi. Orochimaru was originally supposed to be there too, but he seemed to be busy studying Hidan.
As soon as the eight people entered, they saw Li Muyang, Bai Yuxiu, Feng Ling'er, Nan Ying, Nan Sheng, Ganlu Temple Mitsuri, and the Shi Tou brothers gathered around a fire on a flat area not far away, roasting something to eat.
Corn on the cob, sweet potato, potato, eggplant...
Yes, they're all vegetarian.
I'm tired of eating meat lately.
Seeing everyone come in, Li Muyang, who was munching on a corncob, blinked, picked up a corncob that he hadn't eaten yet, and offered it to the people who had just come in, asking, "Want some?"
Aside from Minato Namikaze, the other Kage... Oh, Mei Terumi didn't refuse, took one, thanked him, and started gnawing on it without any politeness, her face smeared with blackened charcoal from the stick.
The last piece of roasted sweet potato was snatched away by Minato Namikaze.
Princess Kaguya picked up a raw skewer and handed it to Li Muyang, who stared at it longingly. Her cooking skills were probably only slightly better than those of a certain purple-haired katana-wielding girl.
It won't kill you.
Moreover, Princess Kaguya knew that the ingredients Li Muyang could provide were basically grown in his small world, containing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth!
She confessed that she was addicted to drugs! She just wanted spiritual energy! And she also wanted Li Muyang's cooking skills!
Grandpa Sarutobi had no choice but to roast the potatoes himself.
Seeing that everyone else had joined in the barbecue, Nagato also came over, leaving only three shadows, a situation that was hard to describe.
If I don't join, I feel like I'm not fitting in; if I want to join, I feel a bit awkward because I just refused.
In the end, I couldn't resist the temptation of the aroma.
"Hiss... Ha!" Lei Yingai hurriedly picked up the scalding hot roasted sweet potato and exclaimed, "I never thought that in my lifetime we could sit together and eat barbecue in harmony!"
Ohnoki also joked, "And this ingredient is definitely the best-tasting I've ever had!"
"Thank you, it's homegrown," Li Muyang said with a faint smile. "As long as you like my ingredients, we're all friends."
Luo Sha remained silent, only gnawing on the corn.
While eating, Li Muyang also showed everyone the introductory page about this world, letting them browse it. He also asked them to point out any problems they didn't understand and he would fix the bugs.
Seeing that Li Muyang was not as arrogant as they had imagined, the group of figures breathed a sigh of relief. After all, the behavior of the Otsutsuki clan that they had witnessed before had left them with a rather stereotypical impression: these powerful individuals were not only short-tempered, but also difficult to talk to!
Including Princess Kaguya!
There are some things that Minato Namikaze's identity makes it inconvenient to say, but Kaguya-hime has no such concerns. Besides... Minato Namikaze is only inconvenient to say openly; he's not a pedantic person. Having Kaguya-hime speak for him feels pretty good!
Therefore, during meetings, the two of them would play the good cop and the bad cop, making things very difficult for the other members of the group.
But they should be thankful, because at least they didn't encounter a combination like Madara Uchiha and Tobirama Senju.
Princess Kaguya is obedient with Li Muyang, but once she leaves him, even when facing Minato Namikaze, she maintains a cold, ruthless, and short-tempered demeanor. The only people she can get along with as an equal are Bai Yuxiu and Feng Ling'er, mainly because of their close relationship with Li Muyang.
Moreover, Kaguya could sense that the two women were dangerous, especially the way they looked at her as she walked with Li Muyang.
Even the goddess of the rabbit can't rely on a girl's resentful and jealous eyes!
The two women might have a hard time defeating Kaguya now, but Kaguya herself definitely can't do anything about the two women.
According to the description on the page, the group of people tried it out themselves while getting to know the world.
To put it simply, it's like an online ninja world game where the abilities of ninjas in real life are perfectly replicated. You can earn gold coins and experience points by completing tasks, building, fighting monsters, training, and sparring.
The key point is that gold coins can be exchanged for a fruit, which, when consumed, increases in-game stats. Furthermore, this enhancement is reflected in the real world!
It can be described as a game about exploring another world.
To add variety to this world, Li Muyang created a large group of NPCs. Under normal circumstances, ninjas cannot harm these NPCs. In addition, in some special town areas, chakra cannot be used. If players engage in private fights, they will attract the attention of the guarding NPCs, who may forcibly expel them from the town.
Of course, once certain special missions are triggered, NPCs may turn into bosses and display their health bars!
"Isn't this my Ninja World Online?" Kazekage Rasa exclaimed with a sparkle in his eyes.
Mei Terumi and Ai both nodded. They both knew that the shop that inexplicably attracted their attention and led them into without realizing it was called an internet cafe.
It's a popular game on the computer inside, and a lot of people have been playing it lately; even those few shadows have fallen for it.
Only the old man, Onoki, looked completely bewildered. What are you talking about?
That's normal. Older men have a poor ability to adapt to new things and haven't gotten used to it yet. He has been to internet cafes before, but only to browse some posts, short videos, or chat with other older men and women.
Upon learning that this world's structure was similar to a game, the group looked at Li Muyang, who was setting up the mission storyline. Old Li smiled calmly... "That's right, I'm the one who owns that internet cafe."
This is just to let you get used to it!
In a sense, the game and this dream world are the same; users can use a single account.
After all, there are still some who aren't ninjas!
But the rewards for the game in the Spirit Platform Realm aren't just chakra! There's also something most important: knowledge!
"I know you're all envious of Konoha's reforms and development, so some of the rewards in the Spirit Realm involve knowledge in these areas, not just techniques and systems, but also some ninjutsu or sage techniques..."
Upon hearing this, the several figures instantly perked up. They had originally thought that the Spirit Realm could only increase chakra, but now that they knew they could also obtain these things, they were truly priceless treasures!
Li Muyang placed these things in the Spirit Platform Realm as a reward, and Minato Namikaze had no objection?
What could Minato Namikaze possibly have to say? Konoha had already been decades ahead and had developed for over a decade, putting it far ahead of the other ninja villages. Even if the other ninja villages acquired this knowledge, it wouldn't be easy for them to catch up.
Konoha is not stagnant. The most difficult period of reform has passed, and now is the era of Konoha's vigorous development. Having several rivals who are making progress together is also a driving force for development. If it can't even withstand this test, then it's better not to bother with all the trouble!
With Minato Namikaze, the Fourth Hokage, in charge, Konoha will surely be able to develop steadily, and the younger generation of the new era is also growing up in an orderly manner. Even if something unexpected happens to him, the village will have enough backup plans to get through the development period, so there is absolutely no need to fear the impact of this.
Moreover, Minato Namikaze also holds a share of the management authority over the Spirit Realm. If something were to happen to him, the ninja world would likely not be able to withstand much of a blow.
At that point, we'll have no choice but to ask Li Muyang for help.
"Oh, I almost forgot, there should be a resurrection part." Li Muyang suddenly slapped his forehead and said.
Apart from Minato Namikaze, Kaguya-hime, and Nagato, everyone else looked completely bewildered.
What resurrection?
Well, when Minato Namikaze was negotiating, he didn't mention this at all. He originally intended to keep it as a last resort, but the negotiations went exceptionally well, and the previous benefits had already tempted the Kage. Therefore, he completely forgot about this last condition!
Upon learning that Li Muyang could actually revive the dead, all the figures widened their eyes in astonishment. Ai, the tough guy, suddenly had tears welling up in his eyes, as if he had just thought of something.
"Hold on, let's make this clear first. The amount of gold coins required for resurrection is astronomical! I also cannot resurrect those who died of old age, and their souls must be in the Pure Land of the Sage of Six Paths. Otherwise, you will have wasted your efforts, and even if they are resurrected, they can only stay in the mortal world for a few days."
Li Muyang continued leisurely, "Whether or not someone can be resurrected in the end depends on whether they are willing to be resurrected. If they are not willing, they cannot be resurrected."
Several figures forced themselves to suppress their excitement and nodded, understanding! Boss, you're awesome!
Wait a minute, the shrewd old man Onoki suddenly realized something!
"Lord Li, you just mentioned a term... the Pure Land of the Sage of Six Paths? Does that mean the Sage of Six Paths is still alive?" Onoki asked in shock, and the others also realized what he meant.
Li Muyang stared at Minato Namikaze and Kaguya with dead fish eyes. Seriously? You two didn't even mention this?!
The two lowered their heads awkwardly and coughed lightly. There was no need to bring it up, so they didn't!
I had no choice but to explain it again, after much effort.
The few shadows were unaware that the Sage of Six Paths still had a soul in the world. They had already learned about Kaguya's identity, which was one of the reasons they backed down, since... they really couldn't defeat her!
Now that they know the Sage of Six Paths still has a soul in the world, the group's worries subsided considerably. After all, an old monster of this level is much more difficult to deal with! Much more troublesome than Kaguya herself! They'd need a taller person to hold them off!
Having resolved their doubts, the group of Shadows excitedly prepared to return and pack up. Their gains had exceeded their expectations. As for the methods to enter the Spirit Platform Realm, Minato Namikaze and Princess Kaguya had already taught them, so that was not a problem!
Get everything ready as soon as possible! Be among the first to join the pioneering efforts in the Spirit Platform Realm!
