He was completely vaporized, leaving nothing behind.
Minato Namikaze, witnessing it all, felt nothing but immense relief. He had wanted to deal with that old bastard for a long time. Now, he didn't even have to do it himselfthe Mech-Kai had taken care of it.
"Don't speak such meaningless words. Calm down, Third."
Minato stepped forward. Regarding Danzo's death, he only wanted to applaud. Well done!
It was just too satisfying.
He admittedly also wanted Hiruzen to disappear someday, but now wasn't the time. There would be plenty of opportunities in the future. These old fools who couldn't see the situation clearlyit's best they were gone.
Especially when he thought about what his son originally went through. It made him want to wipe them all out.
"Calm down, Third!"
The others began speaking up as well. None of them were fools.
Those few Mech-Kai had instantly vaporized Danzo before anyone could even react. Was that a power any of them could contend with?
And that was just a few left behind. Who knew what other terrifying beings were on the other side?
Trying to conquer that world? That was overestimating themselves.
So, Danzo had died for nothing.
Hiruzen gradually calmed down. He took a deep breath and looked at the Fourth Hokage.
"You know what's going on, don't you?"
Minato nodded and didn't hide anything. He explained the situation with the other world.
After hearing the explanation, everyone at the scene gasped.
That world... was that terrifying?
A world connected to countless other worlds?
And Danzo still dared to have such thoughts?
"Serves him right!!"
"Otherwise, who knows what else he would've stirred up."
"Fourth Hokage, please order the clearance of Root. If not..."
At that moment, Fugaku Uchiha spoke up, clearly delighted.
Since Danzo was dead, shouldn't they hurry up and get rid of Root?
Hearing this, Minato's eyes lit up.
"Kakashi! You and the Uchiha clan head will handle this! Fully investigate Root!"
...
After setting up the portal, Takumi also received a message from Prometheus.
"Hm? Danzo is gone?"
Seeing the message, Takumi was stunned.
He had just left, and Danzo was already dead?
How gutsy was that guy!
But then he couldn't help but sigh.
"Truly worthy of the man who stabbed Susanoo with a kunai."
Thinking back on Danzo's antics, it somehow made sense. Definitely something he'd do.
Though Takumi was speechless, he didn't dwell on it.
After finishing the Hokage's portal, he sent a message to Zhongli in the group chat.
Takumi: [@Zhongli, the gate is set. You can come back now.]
Just as he was about to exit the chat, Kaguya suddenly tagged him.
Houraisan Kaguya: [@Takumi, what about me?]
Seeing the message, Takumi froze for a moment before realizing...
Takumi: [Ah, right... I forgot!]
He scratched his head in embarrassment. He really forgot.
Back home, Kaguya was speechless.
Houraisan Kaguya: [Men really are all unreliable pigs!!]
[Forget it, I'll go myself!!]
This guy Takumi was seriously unreliable. But she couldn't be bothered to scold him. She'd just go herself.
Might as well take a look at the Hokage world too.
Takumi: [Alright then, you go ahead. I'm going to deliver the tsutsuki to Prometheus.]
With that, Takumi exited the chat.
He still had quite a few tsutsuki to hand over to Mobius for research.
So he headed straight to the research institute.
When he arrived, the first person he saw wasn't Kleinit was Ruan Mei.
Seeing the "King of Soft Meals" there, Takumi was surprised. She saw him too.
"I heard you have a strange species with you? Can I see it?"
Ruan Mei's eyes lit up as soon as she saw him and hurriedly asked. That's what she was here for.
"Did Herta tell you?"
Takumi was surprised but quickly understood. Must've been Herta.
Ruan Mei nodded.
"Yes! She said you brought back a very unique species from another world. They can use all sorts of powers and even absorb planetary energy. I'm very interested."
Indeed, Herta had told her.
They weren't in the chat group, but Herta often gossiped about such things and shared news right away.
Once Ruan Mei learned of the species Takumi brought back, she became intrigued and came over.
Seeing this, Takumi opened his Imaginary Space and dumped the captured tsutsuki on the ground.
"These are it. If you want to study them, take a few."
Ruan Mei's eyes sparkled as she examined them.
"Very nice! Thank you! Then I'll let you get back to work. I'm heading out."
She didn't linger at all.
Takumi didn't mind. After seeing Ruan Mei off, he headed inside.
Mobius was currently busy at the lab bench, with Klein assisting.
Hearing the sound, Mobius turned to look. Upon seeing it was Takumi, she spoke up:
"I have some bad news for you."
Takumi was instantly confused.
"Go on."
Mobius looked serious, leaving Takumi puzzled. He just got here and already bad news?
"You may not be able to have children in the future. Your internal power is too strong. No one can bear your energy. Having offspring is practically impossible. But if you ever did, they would be born extremely powerful."
Mobius regretfully shared her findings.
She had been researching this recently and had carefully studied it. The conclusion was disappointing. Using normal methods, Takumi likely wouldn't be able to reproduce.
Unless artificial cultivation was used. But even then, finding a suitable core would be incredibly difficult.
Chapter 532: Really Want to Blow the World-Destroying Horn
Takumi is too powerful, so naturally, his other half must be equally strong. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to bear such immense power, making it impossible to produce offspring.
After hearing Mobius' words, Takumi fell silent.
"No way, right?"
"It's nothing, really. If worst comes to worst, I can just make my partner as strong as I am!"
Coming back to his senses, Takumi shook his head. He wasn't bothered. Or rather, he hadn't considered this issue at all until now. If the need truly arose, Takumi could easily grant Bronya the power of Finality, then let her undergo a wave of strengthening.
Maybe she wouldn't become as powerful as Takumi himself, but it would still be enough for her to handle it. The only question is whether Takumi is willing to do itor rather, whether Bronya wants to become a mother.
"Alright then! Forget it. What did you bring this time?"
Seeing that Takumi wasn't dwelling on the issue, Mobius swiftly changed the subject. Since Takumi came, he must have brought something new. Ruan Mei had also come running over earlier. If something could pique her interest, it must be interesting.
Takumi, seeing her curiosity, immediately tossed out a few tsutsuki. These guys were all reduced to murmuring nonsense. He brought out some of each rank of the tsutsuki, some even containing Ten-Tails within.
Seeing what Takumi revealed, Mobius' eyes instantly lit up.
"Klein!"
Upon hearing Mobius' call, Klein hurriedly got to work, starting to collect these tsutsuki.
"I'll study them carefully! If there's nothing else, you can go. Oh, and come to my place tonight!"
Even as she ushered him out, she didn't forget to give a reminder. Then, Mobius no longer paid him any attention.
Takumi was speechless at her response. This woman... whatever. Takumi didn't have anything more to say. Waving a hand, he slipped away. Next, he needed to bring over the world of Tsukuyomi.
Apparently, Tsukuyomi had followed Kaguya to the Naruto world, so she wasn't here. Takumi could only rely on the mark to head to Tsukuyomi's world and bring it back.
By the time Takumi had finished all this, it was already evening. Returning to his own world, he went straight home. Bronya had already returned with Tomoyo. However, the other girls weren't there.
Seeing the two of them, Takumi asked in confusion:
"Where are the others? Why aren't they here?"
Had they gone back?
"They went home," Bronya replied. "They said they'd come again during the winter break. Your world is too big; they can't explore it all in one go, and they still need to attend school. So they'll wait for the holidays."
Takumi understood after hearing her explanation.
"I see, that's fine too."
They truly didn't have much time to stay in Takumi's world for long. A short visit was all it was, just to get a sense of the place. They'd return when they had more time.
Who knows, maybe next year Sakura and Tomoyo would come to learn magic in Takumi's world.
Takumi didn't dwell on it. After returning home, he went to freshen up. That night, Tomoyo stayed at Takumi's house. She returned early to her room to rest, as she had a good sleeping routine and never stayed up late.
Takumi and Bronya were differentthey stayed up working late.
The next morning after breakfast, Takumi sat down with his terminal to read the news. News in his world was always accuratefake news simply couldn't appear. Prometheus wouldn't allow falsification in his world. All news had to pass through Prometheus' review before appearing online.
Today's headlines featured the integration of a new world.
For Takumi's world, a new world meant profit. Now, every corner of his world held opportunities to earn money. Just by selling goods to other worlds, they were profiting.
People from the Naruto world were flocking to Takumi's world. It was simply too enticing. Especially after learning that food ingredients could be sold for a profit, many ninjas rushed to Aincrad to farm meat.
In no time, Aincrad was packed.
Anyone with chakra would now make a trip to Takumi's world. After all, Honkai energy was incredibly convenient.
After reading the news, Takumi asked in the group whether Zhongli had returned.
Zhongli: [I've returned! Currently in Liyue.]
Naturally, he had returned shortly after the portal opened.
Takumi: [Great! @Houraisan Kaguya, what about you? Did you smash the moon yet?]
Kaguya had gone to the Naruto world yesterday. Still no word on how things went.
Houraisan Kaguya: [[Image]] [Piece of cake~!] [Handled in minutes.] [I'm negotiating with her to change her name!] [This world doesn't need so many famous Kaguya!]
She said it with such confidence. Only one Kaguya is the real dealthe rest should change their names.
Chika Fujiwara: [Kaguya suddenly fell into deep thought!] [Should I make Shinomiya Kaguya change her name too?]
Chika, seeing Kaguya's message, was speechless. Seriously? Forcing someone to change their name?
Takumi: [LMAO~!] [We probably already have a million people named Kaguya in our world.] [After all, too many worlds have been merged.]
Takumi found it amusing. The more worlds they had, the more duplicate names there were.
Especially the name Kaguyait held special meaning. Any world influenced by Japanese culture would likely have many Kaguyas.
Houraisan Kaguya: [[?Д?]] [I don't care!!]
She didn't care. Ordinary people she might let go, but anyone with ties to the moon? That's her business.
Bronya: [Emm...]
Megumi Kato: [I once killed a God of Nonconformity named Kaguya.]
Laughed out loud. Everyone was enjoying Kaguya's reactions.
Gabriel: [White-haired girl it's a shame not to catch her and make her a maid.]
Gabriel also peeked into the chat. Lately, she was living quite comfortably in Takumi's world. Her older sister didn't bother her, and she could earn money power-leveling accounts for people. It was great.
Only thing that bothered her was having to attend classes in the Heavenly Realm.
When would this annoying Heavenly Realm in Takumi's world finally explode?
Sometimes, she really wanted to blow the World-Destroying Horn!
Chapter 533: Come, Come, Lets Perform a Direct Purification Rite!
Gabriel was living quite comfortably in Takumi's world, but the idea of attending classes truly frustrated her. Her name had been registered under the guise of being an exchange student, sending her off to study properly in Heaven. Naturally, this left her utterly vexed.
She had assumed she was free from school life. Yet her older sister had promptly signed her up behind her back. Even Vignette seemed to have intentions of converting into an angel. That was just absurd. A demon wanting to become an angel? That was unbelievable.
Had the world gone mad?
Meanwhile, Kaguya had already captured Otsutsuki Kaguya. Alongside her, Shenxiang had also been caught. Since she encountered them, she figured she might as well grab them both.
However, once this version of Otsutsuki Kaguya learned about the current state of the world, she immediately began to question her very existence.
Takumi: [@Kaguya, may as well grab those two in the Pure Land too. I think we should have Shiki take a trip and send everyone there off to reincarnate.]
Reading this message in the group chat, Takumi ignored Gabriel's complaints and suddenly remembered the matter of the Pure Land. Those souls who could be summoned at any time via Edo Tensei were a risk.
Takumi figured it was time for them to reincarnate or be reborn into another race.
Kaguya Houraisan : [Then just send someone over. It's not like the Pure Land is going anywhere.]
She didn't really care. Either way was fine.
Takumi: [OK, I'll talk to Shiki Eiki.]
After saying this, Takumi had Prometheus pass along the Pure Land details to Shiki Eiki. Upon receiving the information early in the morning, Shiki furrowed her brows.
"Why are dead people still lingering around instead of reincarnating? What's the conspiracy here?!"
After reading Prometheus's report, Shiki felt this situation was unacceptable. Dead souls were supposed to be reborn. Yet here they were, clustered in some Pure Land, ready to be summoned at any time?
That violated every rule of the Underworld.
So, Shiki would not allow it!
She departed immediately. But she wasn't going alone. She summoned numerous strong individuals from the Demon Realm.
Among them were Yuyuko and Akeno!
Akeno also lived in the Underworld. Upon receiving Shiki's invitation, she agreed without hesitation, bringing Rias and others along.
She had already seen Takumi's message in the group and understood what Shiki was up to.
Not just thatShiki also invited her partner Hu Tao. The two weren't just colleagues; they were extremely close friends. There was no way she could leave Hu Tao out of this.
If Shiki didn't invite her, Hu Tao would definitely complain.
Hu Tao was one of the few people Shiki could chat with endlessly. Having known her for so long, Shiki deeply cherished her friendship.
