Les Misérables (Part Two)
"Tell me first about the current composition of the continent: human territory and magical beast territory," Issui said.
"Okay. Currently, there are three continents in this world. The rest are oceans. The largest is the continent we are standing on, the Wild Continent, where two-thirds of the land is occupied by magical beasts. Next is the second continent, the Forest of Elves, which is mostly inhabited by elves and dwarves, with a small number of magical beasts. Finally, there is the third continent, the Wilds of Magical Beasts, which is entirely inhabited by magical beasts. It can be said that the most powerful race in this world is the magical beast race, followed by the combined forces of elves and dwarves, and finally, we humans." Is said with Yis smile.
"Well, let me explain the general power levels then," Issui's thought. Humanity's situation is indeed far from ideal.
"Over time, humanity gained some understanding of the world's power. After the gods disappeared, a great man, Gandalf, the progenitor of wizards, established the profession of wizardry. He then divided the world's power into categories. For wizards, the first and second ranks are novice wizards, the third and fourth ranks are intermediate wizards, the fifth and sixth ranks are advanced wizards, the seventh and eighth ranks are Legendary wizards, the ninth and tenth ranks are Demigod wizards, and the eleventh and twelfth ranks are God Level wizards. Although this is how it's divided, only the progenitor of wizards reached the twelfth rank. He ultimately died protecting humanity at the hands of a magical beast. Magical beasts are also divided into ranks from one to twelve. Elves and dwarves also generally have twelve ranks. As for warriors who gain power through physical training, very few exceed the seventh rank, since even the strongest body cannot compete with the power of nature," Yis said slowly.
"Oh, I see. So, how do the powers of humans, magical beasts, elves, and dwarves compare?" Issui gradually came to understand this world. The so-called novice wizard, intermediate wizard, advanced wizard, Legendary wizard, Demigod wizard, and God Level wizard correspond to the ninja levels of Genin, Chunin, Jonin, Quasi-Kage Level, Kage Level, and Super Kage Level, respectively. And the wizarding ancestor Gandalf they mentioned was the same as the Sage of Six Paths.
"Let's start with the power of humanity. Currently, humanity is divided into three major kingdoms: the Radiance Kingdom, the Thorn Flower Kingdom, and the Azure Kingdom. Each kingdom has a Demigod wizard in charge, with wizards of varying levels, but the total number of wizards across the three kingdoms does not exceed 1000. Then there are the Elf Kingdom and the Dwarf Kingdom, each with ten Demigod- level experts and two God Level experts. However, the elves and dwarves remain on their own continents, neither aiding humanity nor provoking magical beasts. But if the magical beasts deploy God Level experts, they will resolutely fight back, because if humanity perishes, they will be the ones left. Finally, the most powerful..." "The monsters occupy almost two-thirds of this world. They have seven God Level powerhouses and a terrifying thirty Demigod- level powerhouses. Moreover, monsters are born with magical talents, making it difficult for humans of the same level to defeat them. The reason the monsters haven't wiped out humanity is that they are keeping us as livestock. Every year, the human world has to offer beautiful men and women as tribute to the monsters in exchange for temporary peace. These beautiful men and women are princes and princesses from various royal families, and they are used as breeding tools for the monsters. The Elf Kingdom also offers beautiful elven men and women as tribute to the monsters every year." Is explained Yis's plight with a bitter smile.
"So, humans are basically just pets of magical beasts right now, huh? Seven God Level (Super Kage Level) beings? That's terrifying. I can barely handle one God Level magical beast at most. Sigh, the human situation is too tragic, it's worse than death. Have you been living like this all these years?" Issui sighed. It's not too bad. Seven Super Kage Level beings. In the Hokage World, those who have reached Super Kage Level are probably Madara Uchiha, First Hashirama Senju, Second Tobirama Senju Obito Uchiha, Uchiha Itachi, Kabuto Yakushi (later, after receiving the Snake Sage's inheritance), Nagato Uzumaki, Naruto Uzumaki (after fighting the Nine-Tails), Uncle Bee (after fighting the Eight-Tails), Orochimaru (I personally think he should be on par with Jiraiya), Jiraiya, Third Hiruzen Sarutobi, and Fourth Minato Namikaze. The others are probably hovering around Kage Level. Tsunade is included because she is far inferior to Orochimaru and Jiraiya.
Although it seems that there are more Super Kage Level ninjas in the Hokage World than so-called God Level powerhouses in this world, the Super Kage Level ninjas in the Hokage World are not Isshin. Furthermore, judging from their words, the God Level powerhouses in the Naruto world likely have extremely long lifespans, whereas the Hokage World is different, with birth, aging, sickness, Yis. Even powerful beings like the Six Paths of Hell have their own unique circumstances. Moreover, the cultivation methods in the two worlds are vastly different. Perhaps the God Level powerhouses in their world are stronger than the Super Kage Level ninjas in Hokage Naruto world. This can be seen from the fact that after Issui used the Flame Demon Descent, Is said he was a tenth-tier wizard. Logically, Issui and this technique should have reached the Super Kage Level- level in the Hokage World, but Issui's power is clearly still at the tenth-tier wizard level. Therefore, Issui speculates that Super Kage Level ninjas in this world probably hover between Demigod and God Level.
From Yis's words, we know that cultivators in this world cultivate Natural Energy. In the Hokage World, this would be equivalent to Naruto's Sage Mode. One can imagine that they can enter Sage Mode at any time, which is the fundamental reason for their Yamato and longevity. Most ninjas in the Hokage World achieve strength through self-cultivation, but ultimately cannot escape the fundamental human cycle of birth, aging, sickness, and death. However, if they continuously cultivate Natural Energy and use it to maintain their bodies, longevity should be easily attainable.
Seeing that Yis was deep in thought, Issui did not interrupt him. In fact, he understood that even if Issui was a divine child, he would still have a headache facing so many powerful opponents. After all, even if a true god appeared now, he would not be able to face so many God Level magical beasts.
"So, Yis, your wizards' cultivation method must be based on Natural Energy, right? Monsters, elves, and dwarves also cultivate Natural Energy, just in different ways, right?" Issui asked.
"Yes, isn't the Divine Child cultivated from Natural Energy?" Yis asked.
"No, no, I cultivate my own energy, Yis. If I were to create a professional system that most people could cultivate, a system that doesn't require absorbing Natural Energy, but whose effects wouldn't be inferior to the natural abilities of you wizards, wouldn't humanity's strength be much greater?" Issui asked.
"You... what did you say? A cultivation system that doesn't require cultivating Natural Energy? If such a system existed, a third of humanity could cultivate it. At that time... you're not lying to me, are you? No, it's not that I don't believe you, I'm just too surprised..." Yis said in a trembling voice.
"I'm not lying to you. In fact, my ancestors traveled to another world in order to find this method, and I practiced the cultivation system of that world. This is the introductory method for ninja training. You should summon the highest leaders of the three human countries and spread this cultivation system in my name." Issui took out a scroll from his pocket. This scroll recorded the method of Chakra extraction and various Ninjutsu of C-rank and below.
With trembling, excited hands, Is took the scroll from Issui Yis, unfolded it, glanced at it, then frowned and cautiously asked Issui, "Your Majesty, is the writing on this divine script? I don't recognize it."
Issui slapped his forehead, suddenly realizing, and said, "I forgot you don't speak Japanese. Here's what we'll do: you first gather the leaders of the three great kingdoms, then I'll explain the cultivation methods of this system to you, and you can write it down and spread it throughout all human regions."
Yis nodded and said, "Alright, I'll go inform them right away. I'll have the city lord of Blue Stone City come to entertain you later."
Issui nodded, indicating that Yis could do as he pleased, and that he could wait a while.
At this moment, Issui suddenly remembered that Bai was still in his Sumeru Space, and hurriedly entered the Sumeru Space.
Bai sensed Issui's sudden presence and quickly put down the flowers and plants she was holding. She walked up to him and asked, "How are you?"
Issui said, "Humans in this world are simply a tragedy. Let's go out first, and then I'll tell you the details."
Bai nodded, placed his hand in Issui's, and the two of them appeared together in the hall where Issui had just left.
Issui told Bai to find a place to sit down, and then recounted everything he had seen and heard in this world.
"The people in this world are so miserable. We must find a way to save them. They are constantly facing the crisis of their homes being destroyed. Villages without strong leaders are always at risk of being devoured by wild beasts. And in places where there are strong leaders, they have to pay tribute to monsters every year. It's too tragic..." Bai's eyes dimmed. She had never imagined that such a human world existed.
"Hmm, stop talking, someone's coming," Issui reminded him.
At this moment, a burly, bearded man walked in and respectfully said to Issui, "Greetings, Your Highness, the Divine Child. Lord Krasil Marco of Blue Stone City pays you his highest respects. And who is this gentleman?"
"This is my wife, no need to be polite," Issui said, pointing at Bai.
"Is this also the Divine Child?" Krasil asked doubtfully.
"No, but she's also very powerful, possessing the strength of a seventh-tier wizard. She's from another world and is now my wife," Issui explained.
"Oh, I see. I have prepared a room for Your Majesty to rest in. Please follow me..." Krasil said respectfully.
"Hmm, let's not rest yet, Krasil. I think Is told Yis I'm going to teach you a new cultivation system, right? Why don't you try it out and see how it goes?" Issui said.
Bai watched strangely as Issui communicated with the burly man in a bizarre language. She couldn't understand a word, so she could only sit quietly and wait.
"Really... really? I'm very honored. Tell me, what should I do?" Krasil knelt on Issui with delight, signifying his allegiance to Issui and his willingness to be at his beck and call.
