Although the spirit is not exhausted,
But under Hinata's gentle pinch, Ryosuke still slowly fell asleep.
And when he woke up, the sky outside was already red, and it was evening.
Hinata next to him didn't know when to leave,
Maybe it was because he had a very heavy heart before going to bed, so he slept a little drowsily this time, and he didn't notice the movement around him.
"It looks like... I wasn't deleted."
With a self-deprecating laugh, Ryosuke felt a little helpless about his crazy thoughts before going to bed.
Unexpectedly, this kind of unconstrained thinking would actually appear within the scope of my consideration.
But looking at the dim room and the setting sun outside, he stretched out his palm unconsciously, and took a hard bite on the middle of his index finger.
It hurts, it's real.
Deep dark red tooth marks appeared on the index finger, and even faintly bleed,
But soon, this wound healed quickly under the influence of physique.
After subconsciously doing this action, Ryosuke was stunned again,
The helpless emotions calmed down instantly until there was no wave at all.
Standing up, all the expressions on his face converged, and he came to the door,
Reason told him that this kind of dangerous thinking could not continue, and without any more information to think about, his blindly digging into corners would only cause problems with his emotions and spirit.
But the reality he came into contact with made him think uncontrollably.
After all, Ryosuke didn't even know how he died in his previous life,
His memory of his previous life stayed in the morning when he woke up from a dream, went to work as usual, and then came to this world.
How did he die, why did he appear here after death, whether he came into contact with the mythical Naihe bridge or the underworld during this process, Ryosuke has no idea.
This also caused all of this to be like a dream, with no beginning, only a process.
But everything in front of me is so real, so it is definitely not a dream.
"Ryosuke? You're awake, it's time to eat..."
In the distance, a familiar voice sounded,
Turning his head, Ryosuke saw Hinata's figure coming from the somewhat bright corridor.
But before he could say hello, Hinata's voice stopped suddenly, and she looked at herself warily.
"What's wrong?"
Ryosuke asked suspiciously.
"you……"
Through the peripheral light in the evening sky, Hinata took a serious look at Ryosuke's face, and breathed a sigh of relief, "What's wrong with you, you were scary just now."
scary?
Ryosuke looked a little confused.
Did you... did you do something just now?
"It's so dark, I almost thought it was an intruder."
Hinata patted her chest and looked at him in shock.
"You don't recognize me?"
Ryosuke took a step forward, "Maybe after the metamorphosis, the body shape has changed."
But soon, he denied this statement in his heart.
Every time you transform, your body shape will change, there is no doubt about it,
This is also the reason why he is not very old, but he can have better physical characteristics than ordinary people.
But no matter how he changed before, whether it was growing taller, getting stronger, or shrinking muscles, Hinata can recognize himself and will not feel strange because of the transformation, and the same is true for other members of the family.
But this time...
"It doesn't seem to be a physical change..."
Hinata scratched her hair, feeling a little distressed and unable to think of a reason, "Forget it, let's go eat! Tonight's dishes are very good, I just sneaked into the kitchen to take a look, and they are all your favorites. "
Ryosuke chuckled, and casually said to Kaidō, "It's also your favorite."
The two of them have similar opinions on food, and both prefer meat.
Not too much entanglement in some things that are currently undetectable, or, Ryosuke is trying hard to resist thinking about these issues.
If I think about it now, I might look like a lunatic in the eyes of others.
He knew this very well...
The dinner at Hyuga's house tonight is indeed very sumptuous,
Those who fly in the sky, those who run on the ground, those who swim in the water, there are all the dishes that should be available, and they are all made in different ways, some are charcoal grilled, some are steamed, and some are boiled in sauce.
The tempting aroma is overflowing, filling the entire dining hall,
But this taste does not make people feel greasy or nauseating. Instead, it deeply arouses the wildest instinct in people's hearts, the instinct for food.
There was a large table full of dishes, and even the usual table for eating was temporarily added. It was only enough to put all the plates together when the two tables were put together.
However, even if the portion of the food is almost doubled, it is not difficult for the Hyuga family of four who are members of the Taijutsu family.
During the first half of dinner,
The spoons and chopsticks collided on the porcelain bowl, and the sound of jingle bells kept ringing,
But eating fast does not mean eating like a pig.
There was no sound of smacking or rude sniffing at the entire dining table. Although there were occasional eating sounds, it was not too loud. The overall atmosphere was very quiet, just like a piece of delicious music.
And it wasn't until the second half that there was a voice of conversation.
"During the time you were retreating, there was news from Xingcai that they had been discovered by that alien."
After comfortably drinking a bowl of dashi soup, Hyuga Hiashi, who is old and has low combat effectiveness, was the first to leave the battlefield and start talking to Ryosuke.
"As you guessed, that outsider is indeed Shanks, and he is very powerful."
Talking about business, Hyuga Hiashi's tone became serious, "He is currently living in the Sagi family in Sagi Castle, and it seems that he has reached some agreement with the Sagi family, or the noble forces of the country of fire, and is doing something for them. matter."
"Listen to the news from Xingcai and the others, and after a face-to-face confrontation, the few of them were directly stunned by the opponent's unknown method, an ability that feels like a high-level illusion."
"This is what I introduced to you earlier, Conqueror's Haki."
Ryosuke picked up a charcoal-grilled lamb chop and explained: "You can understand it as a kind of spirit, the spirit of a king."
"This kind of illusory spirit has been continuously improved in battle after battle, and finally has a substantial destructive ability, which can directly cause a certain degree of damage to the spirit of others."
"Although this kind of offensive is considered a spiritual offensive, to some extent it depends more on people's will."
"Even if a weak-willed person has a deep research on the Yin escape technique, they may not be able to resist the impact of this kind of courage."
He didn't care about the Sagi family that Hyuga Hiashi mentioned at all, and only talked about Shanks.
"Sounds great."
Hinata commented that the ability to directly knock down experienced ninjas including Hyuga Xingcai is terrifying.
"Does this mean that if we want to be an enemy of such a person, we must not only be superior to them in terms of combat power, but also be prepared to maintain a strong spiritual will at all times in battle?"
Hyuga Hiashi pointed out the key point, "You can't have the slightest cowardice, or you will lose immediately because of the influence of this Conqueror's Haki?"
"You can think so."
Ryosuke hesitated for a moment, "Whether this Conqueror's Haki is strong or weak depends entirely on the awakened person's own ability, and the influence on the will is also different, so it is impossible to judge where the lower limit and upper limit are."
However, looking at their worried expressions, he added: "However, with information, there are very few people who can awaken this Conqueror's Haki, and there may not be one among tens of millions of people, so we don't have to worry about it too much." Worry."
"There may not be one among tens of millions of people?"
Hyuga Hiashi was a little surprised, "The number of ordinary people and Jōnin in our country of fire is only in the tens of millions."
"So on average, it's about the same number as one person in a country? That's acceptable."
His heart, which was a little distressed, let go a little bit.
The Otherworld development plan they formulated, although the primary goal is the world where Sakata Gintoki and the others are,
But judging from the current benefits, the Otherworld with Devil Fruit is the best choice. If they have the opportunity to explore this world, their clan's combat power is likely to increase dramatically in a short period of time.
But if everyone in that world is like Shanks, mastering the ability of Conqueror's Haki, then they basically don't need to explore, and even have to worry about being invaded.
"So... what's Shanks' attitude at the moment?"
Ryosuke has not considered entering the world of One Piece yet, this kind of thing is too far away, "After Xingcai and the others are discovered, he can still send news back, so his attitude should be considered kind?"
"Yes, when we show that we are willing to negotiate peacefully, he is also willing to sit down and have peaceful talks with us."
Hyuga Hiashi nodded, "He didn't restrict Xingcai's activities, and said kindly, whether it's him coming to make an appointment, or we can make an appointment, it's up to us."
After a pause, he said expressionlessly, "He seems very confident in his own strength."
"After all, he is a man with the qualifications of a king. Since we are so honest with each other, he certainly does not want to be weaker than others in terms of momentum."
Ryosuke smiled at Kaidō, "And he has also seen the relatively top level of combat power in our world - the strength of "Jōnin", perhaps because of this reason, he is sure to fight with us on an equal footing. It’s so refreshing to talk.”
"In this way, we only need to find a time to ask him to come to the door."
Shanks is definitely not an arrogant person,
He has a good view of the big picture and is also very good at communication, so maybe he dared to make such a proposal with a certain degree of certainty.
After all, Conqueror's Haki's standard is not to be a brave iron boy.
"Jōnin? Alas..."
Hyuga Hiashi's tone was inexplicably emotional, "I don't know when, Jōnin in our Hyuga family is no longer a standard of high-end combat power, and can only stay in the mid-range."
Looking at Ryosuke's puzzled eyes, he explained: "You haven't paid attention to family affairs, so you may not understand."
"Now in the clan, even if you are at the level of Jōnin, that's not enough. You have to have other achievements, and these achievements are not limited to combat, medical treatment, enchantment, escapism, even commander, management and financial management. ..."
Ever since Ryosuke showed great strength time and time again to raise the upper limit of the family, the whole family has entered a period of rapid development. The whole family is working hard to move forward. Anyone who is a bit slack will be thrown away soon.
Even clansmen who are not gifted in family secrets and bloodlines will start to improve themselves from other directions,
Just like the five elements yin and yang escape technique that no one was willing to study before, many people who have not been able to shine in the family inheritance have begun to focus on the development of this aspect.
Only at the level of Jōnin can no longer satisfy the desires of the clansmen.
For example, Hyuga Xingcai and Hyuga Iroha, although they are both Jōnin,
But one has outstanding achievements in medical ninjutsu, and has researched many results for the family to improve combat power.
And the other has a very good commanding ability, these are the differences between them and ordinary Jōnin.
They couldn't find a way to break through the upper limit of combat power like Ryosuke, so they could only start with other abilities.
"Sounds like... a lot of resource consumption."
Putting down the chopsticks, Ryosuke became the second to withdraw from the fight.
Of course he was happy about this kind of thriving development, but when he was happy, the first problem that came to his mind was the consumption of resources.
"really……"
Hyuga Hiashi looked at Hinata who was still working hard at the dining table, "The consumption is completely unsustainable, but you have to ask Hinata for details, and she handles all the family logistics."
"money……"
Mouth stuffed, Hinata heard something about her, and Kaidō slurred: "The money in the clan is totally insufficient."
"I still have a bunch of applications for resources in my hands. They want to find another way out, and money is definitely indispensable."
"But how can we have so much money in our clan, not to mention food and clothing expenses, not to mention research fees for various magical barriers, site repair fees, and material fees."
"Our clan is full of enthusiasm now, but we don't have the money to exert ourselves."
Speaking of this, she complained to Hyuga Hiashi again, "Father, I have raised this issue many times, you should quickly find a way to solve it. They are guarding my place every day, just because they are afraid that someone will jump in line to grab resources."
"I have raised this matter in several meetings, but there is no solution for the time being."
Hyuga Hiashi regretted Kaidō: "Although our clan already has a lot of resource acquisition channels that are independent of Konoha, the bulk of our clan's supply is still the funds allocated to Konoha by the Nation of Fire every year."
"Even if most of the funds given to Konoha by the Kingdom of Fire are taken away by Konoha, the resources distributed to our family are still much more than the resources we obtained from other channels."
This is the result of the direct inclination of the resources of a big country,
Even if it is divided into many small portions, these small portions are still larger than the portion they ate.
"It still takes time, and we have to take it slowly. We can't just give up on Konoha's business and find a big country to settle in. Although our family already has this ability, it's too bad."
Hyuga Hiashi reminded Hinata, "Stay calm, although the resources in our clan are not enough, but it can also be regarded as a tempering."
"Choose the best from among them, instead of satisfying all their applications at once. The better the plan they propose, the more beneficial it is for the development of the family, and we will give it to them."
