The Demon King, reborn in Japan as a monk

Moreover, the impact is within a controllable range.

After all, although Mr. Hanada claims to be the Slit-Mouthed Woman, modern medical tests can only prove that his body is Mr. Hanada, but cannot see through his mental changes. Therefore, he can only be classified as a mental patient according to the evaluation of psychologists or mental health experts.

As for whether there is other information hidden in this—such as the existence of beings like him who possess strange and mysterious powers and have seen through the true nature of things…

Putting aside the likelihood of that, even if they really did see through it, so what? As long as the other party doesn't have the ability to enter the dream world, the impact on Ishihara Sho is negligible. At most, he'll just have to behave himself for a while and not give himself away so those guys can catch him.

Fortunately, I'm also planning to start practicing yoga, so I don't need to worry about that.

"However, we can make use of this atmosphere..."

For example, one could try to guide these dream world "bricks" into corresponding dreams, materializing more urban legends and such within the dream world, and then throw them into the corresponding people, allowing them to manifest in the three-dimensional world and begin to influence reality and public opinion. Then, one could step in to suppress them, earning money, gaining social status, and enhancing one's reputation—it seems like a pretty good strategy...

Although after the Naruto world ended, he had the idea of ​​going to Macau to make some money at a casino to improve his life.

But that money wasn't exactly earned honestly, and it could only be used occasionally, or when a large sum of money was needed for a major operation. In normal life, money obtained by leveraging one's own advantages was more legal and reasonable.

As for the choice of targets at that time, and whether it will attract special individuals...

There's not much to say about the former; just target those social scum, or find other ways to deal with them. As long as you don't harm ordinary, innocent civilians, Ishihara Sho, whose mind has already been transformed in the Naruto world, doesn't care about the life or death of a few scumbags.

As for the latter...

He also wanted to see if this world was just a parallel world with a different history, as he knew it, and whether he was a unique individual, or if this world was like the novels written by his colleagues in his previous life, a strange world with hidden organizations and capable people.

I can use these urban legends that I created to test it out.

"Yes, we can do it. But we need to carefully select the personnel and the locations for deployment, and we also need to determine the positioning method so that we can follow up on the subsequent development and determine the reality of the world."

……

Just then, a phone's built-in system ringtone rang, interrupting Ishihara Akira's reverie and bringing him back to his senses.

"Do you have any vegetables at home?" The woman nodded.

"Then let's prepare lunch. I'm going to take this call." With that, he picked up the phone, left the woman's house, and went outside.

"Why is it taking so long?" After waiting a while, friend A finally got through on the video call and asked with some dissatisfaction.

"I was in the bathroom just now, and I had to come out to answer the phone right away," Ishihara Akira said with a smile, looking at his friend A on the screen.

"Ugh, you're disgusting." Friend A said with a look of disgust, "Didn't you want to see what that online friend I was talking about looks like? Well, this is the teacher I asked you to come and guide me, Teacher Chadouzi. Teacher, say hello to my man."

"Hi!" Then, the phone screen switched to a Tokyo woman with dyed hair, well-groomed makeup, and fashionable yet not unconventional attire, who greeted Ishihara Akira in the video with a smile.

"Now you believe it, right?" Friend A's head popped into the frame and asked.

"Yes, yes, I believe you. Behave yourself, be ladylike, and don't cause trouble for Ms. Chazuko." Ishihara Akira immediately instructed with a smile on his face.

“I know, I’m not a child,” Friend A said impatiently.

"Alright, then I won't bother you two any longer. You two go ahead with your work." Ishihara Akira smiled and said goodbye.

"Remember to behave yourself at home and don't go out fooling around. If I get back and find you've misbehaved, I'll deal with you." Just before hanging up, Friend A, acting like a normal girlfriend, warned Ishihara Akira.

"Know it."

The two then hung up the phone. Ishihara Akira put away his phone and returned to the woman's house, where her husband was not home. He sat down on the sofa like a lord, turned on the TV, and started watching the morning drama.

It's a drama generally made for Japanese full-time housewives. Although it's full of tedious and annoying things, the production quality of the drama itself is quite good. It's not much worse than some popular domestic prime-time dramas. Therefore, Ishihara Akira watched it with great interest and didn't find it boring at all.

The woman was in the kitchen preparing lunch ingredients. It could be said that unless the two of them told outsiders about their relationship, no outsider who came to visit would have guessed that they were actually complete strangers, but a real married couple.

Chapter 110 The Value of Yoga Secrets

The meal was very simple, just ordinary home-style dishes—rice and stir-fried seasonal vegetables, etc.

The Japanese emphasize the original flavor of food, so while they do add seasonings when stir-frying, it's not as complicated as when we cook in China. They mainly use salt, soy sauce, and MSG, so the dishes are primarily savory and salty.

Of course, sometimes there are dishes that are quite bland and taste almost like they have no flavor at all.

There are also dishes that don't taste very good because of the cooking methods.

For example, green peppers in Japan are mostly boiled directly in water, and the taste is horrible to imagine, so it's no wonder that Japanese children don't like to eat them.

However, Ishihara Akira had no right to complain. After all, he had gotten the meal for free, and there was no reason to bother the woman to make something better for him.

The two have no relationship whatsoever.

If it were Friend A or Yumiko, see if Ishihara Sho would find fault.

After finishing his recollection of the woman's memories, Ishihara Akira got up and left her house, heading back the way he came towards the gym where the Indian woman named Aishwarya was.

When we arrived at the destination, it was exactly 2:30.

Therefore, Ishihara Akira didn't linger outside, but went straight into the clubhouse and found the front desk.

"Has Aishwarya arrived?" Ishihara Sho asked.

"You've come at just the right time. Ms. Aishwarya just arrived," the receptionist said with a smile upon seeing that it was Ishihara Akira, who had been there that morning.

"Could you call her out? Or take me to see her?" Ishihara Akira pleaded.

"I'll call her out for you."

"Thank you for your help."

The receptionist then picked up the phone and called Aishwarya. Shortly after, a woman who appeared to be from a high caste in India—meaning her skin was dark but not like that of a lower caste, resembling that of an equatorial resident, with a half-black face and a more tanned, yellowish appearance—walked over from the second floor of the gym.

Her hair, which wasn't styled in a bun, fluttered as she arrived at the doorway.

"Teacher Aishwarya, this is the gentleman who wants to see you," the receptionist introduced to the woman who approached.

"Hello, I'm Aishwarya. May I ask what brings you here?" Aishwarya looked Ishihara Sho up and down before asking with a smile.

After all, she works in the service industry. Even if she is called a teacher, it doesn't change the fact that she profits from those students. Naturally, she won't be cold to people or hide her smile where others can't see her.

"Hello, Ms. Aishwarya, my name is Ishihara Sho. I'd like to practice yoga, but before that, I have a few questions for you." Ishihara Sho stated his purpose directly.

"What is it?" Aishwarya asked curiously.

However, since this person might be her customer, she should be patient and show off her extensive knowledge of yoga. Maybe then she can accept this student as a student?

"Teacher Aishwarya, do you know about chakra?" Ishihara Sho asked.

"Chakra? You mean the kind of chakra from the Naruto manga?" Aishwarya asked in surprise.

As an Indian born and raised in Japan, she had naturally heard of Naruto and had read some of the Naruto manga and watched the anime, so she wasn't unfamiliar with it.

“No, I meant chakra in yoga,” Ishihara Sho corrected.

“Oh, you mean wheel? I know,” Aishwarya said, suddenly realizing.

Having thoroughly researched yoga practice materials, Ishihara Sho naturally knew what the "wheel" Aishwarya spoke of referred to—it was the wheel among the three channels and seven chakras that Ishihara Sho wanted to open! Its formal name in yoga, or rather, its esoteric term, is chakra, representing the energy centers within the body; in more easily understood terms, it's acupoints or pressure points.

For example, the upper, middle, and lower dantian.

"In your yoga practice, will you teach anything about opening the channels and chakras?" Ishihara Akira continued to inquire.

“Um… I’m sorry, although I am also a yoga practitioner, this is not within the scope of my teaching. If you wish to practice, I would suggest that you go to India and find a Hindu master for guidance.” Aishwarya sighed with some regret.

I never expected to encounter such an ambitious guest. Unfortunately, my yoga practice is a family tradition. Although there are no taboos against it being passed on, it's not something that can be taught to just anyone who comes to my door to learn.

Besides, after all these years, she hasn't achieved anything from yoga herself, so how could she have the nerve to use it to fool people?

She's not a liar.

"Does Ms. Aishwarya know anything about this?" Ishihara Sho asked.

“I do know that, how so?” Aishwarya nodded.

Of course she knew, and not only did she know, she knew more than the average yoga practitioner!

Because her yoga is a family tradition, passed down from her mother, and her mother's yoga was passed down from her aunt, a woman who was specially trained from a young age and then sent to a temple as a servant of the gods, she is very familiar with the methods of yoga practice.

"Would you mind if we talked about this outside?" Ishihara Akira asked again.

“It’s right at the door,” Ishihara Akira said again, noticing Aishwarya’s hesitation.

"Ok."

The two then walked out of the clubhouse and stood at the entrance.

"How much money would it take for you to teach me about chakra and the related knowledge of opening meridians and chakras?" Ishihara Sho asked bluntly and directly.

At the same time, the ability began to activate, silently influencing Aishwarya's emotions and mind. It made her gradually feel that she was very kind, while also shaking her original idea that she did not want to teach the yoga secrets.

It wasn't until quite a while later.

“Ten million. If you can come up with ten million, I will privately teach you this knowledge,” Aishwarya said with a somewhat strained expression.

Naturally, the unit is Japanese yen.

“Okay! Give me a few days.” Ishihara Akira agreed immediately without any room for negotiation.

Let's exchange contact information.

“Okay.” Aishwarya looked at him with some surprise, took out her phone, and exchanged all her contact information with Ishihara Akira, including her phone number, LINE account, and email address.

"Then I won't disturb you any longer as you prepare for your lesson. I'll be going now. I'll contact you again once I have the money ready."

"Ok."

Then Ishihara Akira turned around and headed straight back to the temple.

Before heading to Macau to make money, it's time to go back to the temple and check on things...

Of course, I should also say hello to Hanako-nee again, so that she won't worry about me.

Chapter 111 Trading

It took three days to get his passport sorted out. Then, Ishihara Akira packed his things and headed straight to the airport. He took a plane back to China, then transferred and flew directly to Macau.

Without further ado or sightseeing, since he had plenty of time to sample Chinese cuisine afterward, he checked into the hotel recommended on his phone's navigation app. After a short rest, he headed towards the He family's online casino.

Needless to say, what happened after that was basically a copy of his actions in the Naruto world, but he was a bit bolder. After all, so far, he had not found any trace of any special people, let alone the dealers in the He family's establishment.

The mind-reading ability was immediately put into practice, so although the gains were not large in a day, it directly multiplied his money several times, turning tens of thousands of RMB into more than a million RMB.

Then Ishihara Kou continued to look for ways to increase revenue—
