--- Chapter 459 ---
After putting his plan into motion, Yunlong started preparing some skills and meditated in the Hatake Household's backyard. He needs a lot of focus to reincarnate many people at once.
Thankfully, there are Kaguya and Gu Yuena around, who are very adept in the soul-related fields and skilled in the physical aspect of the matter, respectively.
Hagoromo returned with several people who wanted to get reincarnated, and some had a varied expression when seeing Kaguya. To some of them, Kaguya is the mother of destruction.
So, seeing Kaguya lazily sit beneath a cherry blossom tree and drink her tea is a surreal experience.
Kaguya ignored the gazes and said calmly, "Before we start, I have to say something."
"After getting reincarnated, you will be my husband's loyal subordinates."
"Defying his action, whether it was an act of dishonesty or betrayal, means death."
"Not your kind of death. It is True Death. You didn't go to heaven or hell, and you absolutely cease to exist from this universe."
Everyone's expression sank after hearing Kaguya's statement.
Hagoromo and Hamura knew what their mother said was the truth. Even though they doubt Kaguya would do such a thing, especially after her new life, Yunlong would do it in a heartbeat.
If Yunlong knew what the brothers were thinking, he would immediately call out their bias.
Gu Yuena didn't like the tension and added, "Don't worry. Yunlong won't order you around to do evil things."
"Of course, you can't fully expect not to do some dirty work for him."
"You live in a world torn with war, so you understood the law of the jungle and survival of the fittest."
Dirty and Evil are part of the Shinobi World.
Although Hagoromo tried his best to reform the Shinobi World, his power was 'sincerely' limited under the guise of false achievement. They can't change human hearts and greed.
Even if they do, they only suppress it, which causes it to grow stronger.
What they need is Absolute Power and Authority.
And fortunately, Yunlong has them.
They weren't dumb.
They know what Gu Yuena implies.
"Ah, one more thing." Gu Yuena smiled at them.
"You won't be fighting under the Shinobi World's banner."
"You're fighting under the Bright Spirit Empire's flag, a faction owned by Yunlong and Bibi Dong. Shortly put, you will be serving the Empire from now on."
"Will you give us freedom?" Obito asked while raising his hand.
Gu Yuena's smile widened, "Freedom?"
"I don't know what you have done, but your Karma is quite heavy, no?"
"That means you know there is no such a thing as true Freedom."
"But as long as you follow the laws, nothing will stop you from being happy, forming a family, and experiencing the world's beauty."
Clap! Clap!
The sound of claps awakened everyone.
They moved their gazes and saw Yunlong sitting on the rock with a faint smile on his handsome face.
"Nice speech, Yuena."
"But there is no need for that."
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!!
The Pure Land shook violently, and Yunlong indifferently gazed at them with his crimson eyes. His godly presence suffocated everyone.
Even Hagoromo and Hamura felt like their souls were on the verge of crumbling.
"My question is simple..." Yunlong held his chin with one hand.
"Yes or no."
"Those who followed me will get the taste of heaven."
"Those who didn't agree, simply say, get the fuck out of my sight!"
Yunlong's aura flared even more, creating cracks in Pure Land.
Everyone thought of one thing in their minds right now.
Domineering!
This person doesn't care about their feelings at all.
He only wanted an answer.
"Obito..." Rin held Obito's hand calmly.
"Rin, you..." Obito was speechless.
He thought Rin would be afraid, but no. She showed a determination that no one had ever seen.
Obito had never seen this side of Rin.
However, Obito also understood Rin's dream.
They are born in the Era of War. Rin died young because of being used as the container of Third Tail to attack Konohagakure.
She has yet to experience becoming an adult, marrying someone, bearing a child, and growing old watching them grow. She wanted to experience those, but the Pure Land had a set of rules she couldn't break.
With that in mind, Obito grasped Rin's hand and gazed at Yunlong with a determined flame in his eyes.
"I'm willing to be your dog, but Rin must be happy!" He said coldly.
After hearing what Obito said, everyone was quiet.
Yunlong broke a sly smile, "Obito, I'm a man of my word. Rin will live comfortably, I assure you."
"However, I hope she wasn't useless."
"For the next seven days, I wanted her to show her worth."
"Understood, Yunlong-sama," Rin answered this time. She doesn't want to become a burden for Obito. "I will show you my worth in seven days."
"I will follow you, too." A pale man with a shark-like trait walked toward Yunlong.
"Kisame..."
But this one ripple is enough chaos among the people.
"Uzumaki Clan will follow you, Yunlong-sama!" A white-bearded elder declared to Yunlong. He led many Uzumaki Clan members who died in the siege of other villages.
"Uchiha Clan will also follow you, Yunlong-sama."
"Senju Clan, too."
Faced with such perils, several other clans also agreed to Yunlong's authority.
Hashirama glanced at his younger brother with a wry expression, "He won them all this easily."
"Unlike you, Big Brother..." Tobirama stared at Yunlong calmly. "Yunlong conquered human's heart and darkness."
"He didn't try to understand them because he knew it was futile."
"What people want was stability brought by Absolute Power. No offense, you once called the God of Shinobi, but you disappeared, and peace was no longer an option."
"That is harsh." Hashirama pouted.
Still, Hashirama didn't deny his younger brother's words.
It is hard to understand others.
If not, there won't be so many wars.
Maybe Yunlong's method is the best, after all.
"Let's go." Tobirama crossed his arms and walked to Yunlong.
"You wanted to meet that guy again, right?"
"He has a name." Hashirama rolled his eyes, following his younger brother casually.
Surprisingly, everyone agreed to become Yunlong's followers. Well, it's not like they have any choice in this conversation.
Some of them have unfinished business in the realm of living. They have buried it for too long, and this reincarnation granted them the chance to complete it.
"Wait!" Someone shouted from a distance.
"We also want to get reincarnated." A calmer voice followed.
Hagoromo's eyes widened because he recognized this voice. He turned around and saw his sons, Indra and Ashura, running toward the Hatake Household.
'Damn it. What are these two doing here?' Hagoromo cursed in his heart.
Hagoromo didn't tell his son about Yunlong's mass reincarnation plan, but hiding it doesn't seem to work.
"Indra, Ashura." Kaguya's eyes lit up.
Yunlong stared at the two in amusement, "You know that following me means you're my subordinate eternally?"
"We know." Indra and Ashura replied calmly.
Ashura scratched his cheek, "If possible, can you also reincarnate my wife and some other friends? They are strong and can fight well, trust me."
"Sure." Yunlong agreed without much problem.
"What about you?" He glanced at Indra.
Indra closed his eyes before opening them slowly. "I'm fine, alone."
Yunlong nodded in understanding, "Very well."
"Since everyone is here, let's start the reincarnation process."
"It might hurt a little, but that's normal because you're adjusting to your new body."
Yunlong stood up and clasped his hand, drawing the power of Godking of Miracle. He also used the power of Fantasy God, preparing homunculus bodies in the semi-virtual realm.
Kaguya immediately supported Yunlong's back, giving him all her Spiritual Energy. Meanwhile, Gu Yuena returned to the real world and supplied Yunlong with her dragon energy.
Yunlong closed his eyes, revealing a bit of gold hue.
"Heavenly Ruler's Authority."
"Weaving Through Heaven and Earth!"
SWOOOOOOOOOOOOSH!!!
A brilliant platinum light washed the Pure Land.
