After a while, Bai Xuan began eating heartily.

Sauced beef bones, chicken legs, beef, seafood, desserts.

He swallowed one ready-to-eat dish or dessert after another. Once the hot pot broth came to a boil, he tossed in rolls of beef and lamb, fish balls, and egg rolls, then ate them bite by bite after they were cooked.

He completely ignored the scalding temperature of the food.

Meanwhile, Bai Xuan's stomach frantically digested everything inside it. No matter how much he ate, there was no sign of his belly swelling.

Should I buy some compressed rations? My appetite is already like this now. It'll probably become even more ridiculous in the future.

Or perhaps I could buy some Sea King meat from Pops?

He pondered as he ate.

Sea King meat contained a vast amount of nutrients. It would definitely be far more effective for him than ordinary ingredients.

There was no need to worry about cooking, either. He could just ask a restaurant to prepare it for him.

As long as an entire Sea King was not delivered at once, it would not be a problem.

After estimating how much he had eaten, Bai Xuan wiped his mouth and left. It was not because he was full, but because he worried that continuing to eat would attract unnecessary attention.

Although the age of short videos and eating broadcasts had made people less unfamiliar with big eaters, someone might still record a video and upload it online.

He did not like that sort of thing. Changing restaurants suited him better.

There were plenty of buffet restaurants nearby anyway.

Patting his stomach, Bai Xuan was in an exceptionally good mood. He could feel a warm current continuously flowing from his abdomen to every limb and bone.

This tangible strengthening of his body made him feel extremely comfortable.

Over the following hours, Bai Xuan visited three buffet restaurants in succession. Only after feeling distinctly full did he return home.

After resting for a while, he continued training.

The weekend had finally arrived, and he did not want to waste too much time.

Training was addictive, especially when he could so clearly feel himself growing stronger.

Growing stronger without paying any price was certainly delightful, but the feeling of gaining rewards through effort was equally intoxicating.

Bai Xuan wanted both.

During his training, the food he had eaten earlier began breaking down rapidly again, transforming into energy that nourished Bai Xuan's body.

Countless colored particles of light, invisible to the naked eye, also continuously surged toward Bai Xuan's body.

They enhanced Bai Xuan's Superpower and physique.

At the same time, while Bai Xuan was training, something amusing happened in the Chat Group.

Golden Flash: "Naruto Uzumaki will be born before long. I'm so excited.jpg"

Golden Flash: "This time, I definitely won't let the tragedy happen."

Golden Flash: "Determined.jpg"

Worst Spirit: "Oh."

Ordinary Group Owner: "Oh."

Uchiha Dance King: "Oh."

Boil Daigo Into Soup: "Oh."

That Is How It Is Meow: "Oh."

The group members showed no reaction whatsoever to Minato Namikaze's declaration. They even somewhat wanted to seal his mouth shut.

Golden Flash: "Why are you all acting so indifferent? Did I say something wrong?"

Minato Namikaze could not understand their indifferent attitude. They were making things very awkward for him.

Ordinary Group Owner: "You've got the nerve to say that!"

Ordinary Group Owner: "How many times have you said that already? Huh?! How many times?!"

Ordinary Group Owner: "I understand that you're excited, but you need to know that there are still six months until the Nine-Tails Incident."

Ordinary Group Owner: "Six months!!!"

Ordinary Group Owner: "Please wait another five and a half months before talking about anything related to Naruto Uzumaki. Thank you."

Boil Daigo Into Soup: "Indeed."

Worst Spirit: "Agreed."

Be My Son: "Not bad."

Golden Flash: "..."

Golden Flash: "All right."

He did seem to be a little too excited.

But there was nothing he could do about it. Seeing Kushina's smile and her anticipation for Naruto Uzumaki during this period always made him think of Naruto Uzumaki's experiences in the Memory Copy.

Even now, he could not imagine how Naruto Uzumaki had remained so optimistic after going through so much.

Not even he—well, that was flattering himself.

He absolutely could not do what Naruto Uzumaki had done.

Fortunately, it was he who had joined the Chat Group. If it had been Kushina, she might have gone straight to Third Generation, or perhaps even killed Danzo outright.

And if he could, he naturally wanted to do the same. But he was not merely Naruto Uzumaki's father; he was also Konoha's Fourth Hokage.

Without sufficient evidence, he could not make a move against the Konoha Elder Council.

And gathering evidence would take time.

Therefore, during this period, the only thing he could do was prevent the Nine-Tails Incident from happening.

Boil Daigo Into Soup: "By the way, have you done any Lucky Draws these past few days?"

Ordinary Group Owner: "I want to draw, but I don't have any Points."

Ordinary Group Owner: "Panda headache.jpg"

Ordinary Group Owner: "Check-in only gives me three or four Points each time. I only have twenty-three now."

Ordinary Group Owner: "Wuwuwuwu."

Su Yunqing wiped away tears that did not exist. She had already gained a profound understanding of her Luck.

A Non-Chief! A pureblooded Non-Chief!

After checking in so many times, she had never once gotten more than five.

Even Kurumi, Daigo, Madara, and Pops, whose Luck was equally poor, had more or less received six or seven Points before.

But she had not gotten it even once!

Be My Son: "Gurararara, this old man has exchanged quite a few Points these past few days through Sea Kings, Famous Blades, Three-Color Haki, and the Cultivation Methods of the Six Powers."

Worst Spirit: "How many Points did you exchange for?"

The moment Points were mentioned, Kurumi Tokisaki was no longer sleepy. She had gained some things over the past few days as well, but there was too little.

She did not know whether the Chat Group was biased against technology, or whether everything she had Recycled was simply common merchandise with little value.

Ordinary Group Owner: "Although Three-Color Haki and the Six Powers are only Cultivation Methods without any experience, their inherent value is still extremely high."

Ordinary Group Owner: "As for Famous Blades, were they Skillful Grade Swords? Great Grade Swords? Supreme Grade Swords should be impossible, right?"

Ordinary Group Owner: "Wait, where did you get the Six Powers?"

She could understand Three-Color Haki. She could also understand Famous Blades, whether Skillful Grade Swords, Great Grade Swords, or even Supreme Grade Swords. But the Six Powers... You're a pirate, so why the hell do you know the Six Powers?!

Be My Son: "Gurararara, isn't the Six Powers something you can learn just by watching?"

Boil Daigo Into Soup: "???"

Worst Spirit: "???"

Ordinary Group Owner: "???"

Golden Flash: "???"

Son of Nature: "Listen to yourself. Does that sound like something a human would say?"

The Six Powers were, after all, physical arts designed to surpass the limits of human physical ability. Anyone who wanted to learn them had to undergo rigorous training.
