Become a god by AFK starting from Naruto

Chapter 135 A Clichéd Story

Before long, Xingliu arrived at the capital of the Land of Fire.

He didn't really care what the city was like, since he would bring Tsunade and the others here to visit sooner or later on this trip.

We should focus on the important things now; we've already wasted enough time today.

So he went straight to the daimyo's residence to see him off.

When Xingliu arrived at the daimyo's residence, he found it surrounded by samurai and ninjas guarding it from the shadows, but he didn't care.

After observing quietly for a while, he vanished from the spot in a flash.

When he reappeared, he had already entered the mansion.

Looking around, he found that the place was not as strict as he had imagined.

Perhaps the daimyo was too confident in his own strength and thought that no one would really attack him.

Thinking of this, Xingliu sneered and began searching for the daimyo's whereabouts.

They quickly located the room where the daimyo was, gently pushed open the door, and went inside.

Daimyo was talking to a middle-aged man when he heard the noise, looked up, and saw that it was Hoshino. His face showed a look of horror.

He tried to scream, but it was too late. Xingliu's figure was already beside him, grabbing him by the neck.

"What...what are you going to do?" Daiming asked, struggling.

"I'll take you on your way."

Xingliu said coldly, applying slight pressure to his hand. Daiming's expression immediately became distorted, and his breathing became increasingly difficult.

Just then, the middle-aged man who had been talking to the daimyo earlier spoke up calmly:

"My lord, may I have a word with you?"

Xingliu looked at him with interest and loosened his grip slightly.

This made the daimyo look relieved, and then he began to beg for mercy:

"You're Uchiha Seiryu, right? Do you remember me? I saw you when you were a child!"

However, Daimyo's pleas for mercy had no effect, and Hoshiryu impatiently made him pass out.

This action brought a look of satisfaction to the middle-aged man standing nearby.

Xingliu looked at him suspiciously, frowned, and asked, "Aren't you afraid I'll kill you?"

Takeru Satoh smiled calmly and replied composedly:

“I actually died more than a decade ago. Since then, I have only been a ghost living for revenge.”

Xingliu was slightly taken aback, and then he suddenly realized that there must be a shocking story behind this person.

So, Seiryu decided to listen to Takeru Satoh's past.

The middle-aged man took a deep breath and began to recount his experiences.

It turns out his name was Takeru Satoh, and he was a staff member in the daimyo's residence.

More than a decade ago, he was a nobleman with a happy family, but due to the daimyo's greed and cruelty, his entire family perished.

This story sounds very cliché: a down-on-his-luck nobleman marries a beautiful wife, which arouses the jealousy and covetousness of a powerful lord, ultimately leading to the destruction of his family and his death.

Sato Takeru's tone was calm, but the pain and hatred he conveyed were undoubtedly immense.

For over a decade, Takeru Satoh had been secretly plotting his revenge.

He went to great lengths to gain the daimyo's trust step by step, even at the cost of innocent lives.

His goal was not just the daimyo himself, but to completely destroy the daimyo's entire family.

Now, his plan is nearing completion.

If the daimyo were to die suddenly, he was confident that he could cause the daimyo's children to kill each other in a power struggle.

Upon hearing this, Xingliu couldn't help but gasp. He suddenly realized that he was actually a good person after all.

No wonder Cao Cao always had Jia Xu by his side; that's why.

As for the story's credibility, Starflow believed that no one could lie under his illusions.

Then, Xingliu glanced at Sato Takeru a couple more times and asked:

"Then why did you tell me to stop?"

Takeru Satoh chuckled and replied:

"I asked you to stop, sir, because killing him like this would change my plans. So, please make it appear as if the daimyo died of illness."

Xingliu looked at him suspiciously: "Aren't you afraid I'll kill you? If you die, your whole plan will be ruined?"

Sato Takeru calmly replied, "Does Your Excellency think that I am the only enemy of the Daimyo?"

Upon hearing this, Seiryu completely understood that Takeru Satoh might have also created an organization targeting the daimyo.

This made him even more interested in the mission. He never expected that killing a powerful figure here would yield such an unexpected reward.

Xingliu asked curiously, "After you complete your plan, do you have any other goals?"

Upon hearing this, Takeru Satoh's eyes flashed with confusion. He murmured, "Maybe. Go find Miwako and reunite."

Sensing his suicidal intent, Xingliu revealed a wicked smile:

“I just heard you say that you’ve stained your skin with the blood of many innocent people over the years. Aren’t you afraid that those people will come after you after you die?”

However, his words did not have much of an impact on Takeru Satoh.

After all, someone who can endure for over a decade for revenge is not so easily swayed by emotions.

Xingliu also understood that he couldn't persuade Sato Takeru in a short time.

So he lost interest in continuing to persuade them and decided to finish the task at hand first.

Once he makes up his mind, the daimyo's death is imminent.

While Daming was still unconscious, a blood vessel in his brain suddenly ruptured, and he stopped breathing shortly afterward.

After noticing the daimyo's silent death, Sato Takeru knew that Seiryu had done as he had been told.

He knelt respectfully on the ground and said gratefully, "Thank you for your kindness, sir!"

Xingliu waved his hand dismissively, preparing to leave. Before departing, he left a message:

"My name is Uchiha Seiryu. If you haven't figured out what to do after all this, you can come to Konoha to find me. I want to unify the five great nations and become the god of this continent."

Sato Takeru looked up in shock, only to find that Hoshiryu had vanished without a trace.

He muttered to himself, "Miwako, you may have to wait a while. I want to go and see if this gentleman can do it."

.......

It has to be said that the ability to teleport is really useful.

One moment Xingliu was in the Daimyo's mansion, and the next he was back in Konoha.

At this moment, Tsunade and the others were having lunch, and their mood was clearly somewhat low.

Even when Xingliu returned, they only greeted her listlessly before continuing their meal.

After all, having just left the village to "do a mission" and returning in less than a morning would make anyone a little unhappy.

Moreover, Tsunade and her companions encountered such ugliness of human nature, so it was inevitable that their emotions would be affected.

After witnessing all this, Xingliu pondered for a moment and said:

"How about this, I'll take you to Tanabata Street for a stroll?"

I've been hit by a bug, so updates might not be very frequent for the next few days. Sorry.

Masks don't seem to be very effective... orz

Chapter 136 The Innate Money-Losing Holy Body

Upon hearing Xingliu's suggestion, Tsunade, Nonou, and Zhili felt a warm current surge in their hearts.

They understood that Xingliu was showing his concern for them in his own way.

This care made them feel incredibly warm and eased their mood a little.

The name Tanabata Street is widely known throughout the Land of Fire, and it is hailed as a unique entertainment venue.

Although Tsunade and the others had never had the opportunity to set foot there in person before, they had heard about it and were inevitably filled with curiosity and anticipation for this place.

Therefore, when Xingliu made this suggestion, their faces showed obvious excitement, and their anticipation and joy were almost overflowing.

So, after the meal, they couldn't wait to leave Konoha.

Riding the Seven-Tails, they quickly passed through Konoha and headed towards Tanabata Street.

Before long, they could see the entrance to Tanbata Street in the distance.

The moment they stepped into Tanabata Street, the sight before them amazed them.

The prosperity here exceeded their expectations, with all kinds of shops, stalls, performance venues and so on.

There are people coming and going, and it is very lively.

The group's mood improved as they found themselves there.

Tsunade watched all this with curiosity in her eyes.

Then she saw a place and her eyes lit up.

She tugged at Xingliu's sleeve and pointed to a casino not far away, saying, "Let's go check that out!"

Xingliu frowned, and said uncertainly, "Are you sure? Didn't you say you'd never play again?"

In the past few years, Tsunade would gamble with Xingliu a few times at first, but she always ended up being cheated, so she said she would never play again.

Unexpectedly, after arriving here, she showed signs of a resurgence.

Tsunade said nonchalantly, "Don't worry, I'm just going to take a look, I won't gamble."

Xingliu chuckled upon hearing this, "You're about to enter the casino, yet you say you're just looking and not gambling."
