Rōran is located at the border of the two top Ninja World powers, Konoha Suna, and has always been coveted by Sunagakure. The Queen of Roran spread rumors about her relationship with Uchiha Meikyō, the most famous Ninja World, in order to make Sunagakure hesitate to act against her.
Sunagakure is indeed in a dilemma, or more accurately, Pakura is in a dilemma.
"Elder Pakura, what are your thoughts on the revised contract? I have other important matters to attend to."
Queen of Roran could no longer sit still after hearing the news that Meikyō had arrived in Rōran.
Uchiha Meikyō!
"Is the Queen in a hurry to see Uchiha Meikyō?"
Pakura slightly furrowed his handsome brows and asked the Queen of Roran.
The Queen of Roran smiled but did not answer, only blushing and making a shy expression.
Pakura looked at the contract on the table with some distress.
The Fourth Kazekage Rasa, wanted to take over Rōran, so he drew up a "contract" and sent Pakura as an envoy to Rōran to negotiate.
The contract seems to offer Rōran a significant short-term benefit, such as the Sunagakure sending elite ninja forces to help protect Rōran assist in developing the surrounding areas. However, it's clear to anyone with eyes to see what Rasa's true intentions are.
Using both force and incentives, they sought to seize control of Rōran.
This can be seen as Rasa testing Konoha.
If Konoha doesn't react much, then we can continue to gradually erode Rōran according to the original plan. If Konoha reacts strongly, then even if Suna fails, there won't be too much loss for Sunagakure.
If the plan succeeds in the end, he, the Fourth Kazekage, will have the merit of strategizing and planning. Even if it fails, it will still damage the reputation of Pakura, who is a certain threat to his position as Kazekage.
Now, Konoha has indeed responded to their actions, and has even dispatched Konoha's strongest ace, Uchiha Meikyō!
While Pakura was not betrayed by the Suna leadership and ultimately killed by the Kirigakure Ninja due to the butterfly effect brought about by Meikyō, as she was in the original timeline, and her strength steadily improved, firmly entering the ranks of Kage, she was by no means a match for Uchiha Meikyō!
That was a super strong person who could fight against the Fourth Raikage and the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki by himself a few years ago. Considering that Uchiha Meikyō's strength has been increasing at an extremely fast rate since his debut!
Even now, Uchiha Meikyō is still considered to be in the late stage of his golden age for developing ninja strength!
"I'm sorry, Your Majesty, could it be that you really are with Uchiha Meikyō..."
"Although Mr. Meikyō is young, he is exceptionally brave and not someone as physically weak as me can withstand."
Queen of Roran blushed and said to Pakura.
Pakura:...
Is it really true?
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Lord Meikyō has arrived at the palace!"
A maid rushed into the place where the Queen of Roran was talking with Pakura, shouting.
The Queen of Roran couldn't help but curl up her lips, while Pakura's face turned serious.
Uchiha Meikyō!
Back in the Third Shinobi World War, she had fought against Uchiha Meikyō. However, even back then, Pakura wasn't confident of defeating Uchiha Meikyō, let alone now.
"Now that Uchiha Meikyō from Konoha has arrived, I shall take my leave and return to report to Lord Kazekage."
Pakura sighed, then stood up, preparing to leave.
She doesn't plan to run into Uchiha Meikyō.
However, she didn't want to, but Meikyō really did.
"Pakura Cang, it's been many years since we last met. Why are you in such a hurry to leave?"
Uchiha Meikyō's figure quietly appeared in the arena.
"Mr. Meikyō, you've finally arrived!"
The Queen of Roran greeted Meikyō with a joyful expression.
"Are these the conditions that Sunagakure has put forward to Rōran? I also happen to be representing Konoha and have brought Konoha's letter of cooperation. Your Majesty might as well take a look."
Meikyō smiled and took out a document.
Konoha doesn't care about the economic benefits that Rōran can bring.
On the contrary, Konoha wanted to support Rōran so that Rōran would have the ability to restrain Sunagakure and at the same time limit the benefits that Suna could obtain from Rōran.
In this regard, we can look to a certain American country; this is exactly the kind of thing they like to do.
Konoha's status in the Ninja World is also that of a dominant force.
The Queen of Roran took the documents from Meikyō and smiled.
"Your Majesty, I will convey your opinion to the Fourth Kazekage. As for Uchiha Meikyō, I have important matters to report back to the village, so I will not disturb you any longer... and Your Majesty."
Pakura gave Uchiha Meikyō a deep look, then turned and left.
Meikyō watched Pakura's departing figure, lost in thought.
"What, you've taken a fancy to her? This high-ranking official from Sunagakure does indeed look young and beautiful, and she's only a tiny bit older than you. She does seem to be a better Lord Meikyō ~"
The Queen of Roran spoke sweetly as she quietly came up behind Meikyō and reached out to hug her Meikyō.
The surrounding maids chose to ignore it.
"It's nothing. I was just wondering if we could kill her here. In Sunagakure, Sunagakure and Ebizo have both retired like Chiyo Third Hokage Ebizo. Karura, and the One-Tail Jinchuriki is probably still not fully grown. If we kill this woman too, Sunagakure will only have Rasa left, and they won't be able to hold on alone..."
The Queen of Roran's expression immediately changed.
"If we're going to take action... could we change the time and place? If Pakura dies on Rōran's territory at this moment, Sunagakure certainly won't dare to wage war against Konoha, but they'll have a reason to attack Rōran..."
Whether or not to take action depends on your performance tonight.
Meikyō turned around, reached out, and hooked the Queen of Roran's fair chin as she spoke.
"Evening? Then why not now?"
As night fell, Meikyō walked out of the Queen's palace with her belt tied.
The Queen of Roran's fighting strength was still too weak.
The battle between the two was divided into two halves. In the first half, the Queen of Roran took the initiative, and there was even some entertainment such as the Queen's uniform temptation, while Meikyō was responsible for lying down.
He is a man who prefers to be passive.
The first half of the game lasted until late at night, and the Queen of Roran was so exhausted that she was almost collapsing before it was Meikyō's turn to take the initiative, as she was not satisfied with the game.
Now, the Queen of Roran, who has fallen into a coma, is fast asleep on her bed in her palace.
"Next, it's time to start a new world."
Meikyō silently infiltrated the side hall built by the Dragon Vein, broke the seal, and introduced the Dragon Vein's space-time capabilities into the Reincarnator's Wristwatch.
Only Dragon Vein with energy powerful enough to transcend time and space can help the Meikyō locate other worlds.
The Reincarnator's Wristwatch can certainly store some spacetime energy, but it is not enough to explore the coordinates of a New World in the endless void. It can only allow the user to switch back and forth between two planes with known coordinates.
This is why Meikyō always visits Rōran whenever he goes to the New World.
"Range screening, biotechnology, gene editing technology, high energy level."
"Search begins..."
"Seventeen worlds have been found, with keyword matching rates of 97%, 91%, 83%...61% respectively. Please select your target world."
"World One".
"Coordinates confirmed. Teleportation anchor point established. Begin teleportation?"
"No."
Meikyō still planned to wait until she found a relatively safe and stable place before crossing over.
The following day, after signing a series of treaties on behalf of Konoha and Rōran, Meikyō, along with Might Guy, Yūhi Kurenai, and Asuma, returned to Konoha under the reluctant gaze of the Queen of Roran.
The Land of Fire, on the border.
A mountaintop on the edge of a valley.
Uchiha Madara stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at a forest in the distance.
"Lord Madara, there is no trace of Uchiha Meikyō in Rōran."
A pitcher plant sprouted from the ground, White Zetsu said to Madara in a slick tone.
"So, my junior should be arriving here soon."
Uchiha Madara turned around calmly and said.
"Lord Madara, he has arrived."
Black Zetsu emerged from Uchiha Madara's body and gave a warning.
"The situation has changed. The three of you must immediately take a detour and evacuate, and try to contact the village."
At the edge of the forest, Meikyō looked up at the mountain peak of the distant canyon and spoke to Might Guy and the others behind him.
His Observation Haki detected the powerful aura from afar.
Powerful, decaying, yet brimming with a strange vitality.
"Teacher Meikyō, is... there an enemy?"
"It should be the same person who attacked the village last time, the one who can use Wood Release and Susanoo. He's not someone you can handle. Be careful when you leave. Since he intends to ambush me here, he shouldn't let you spread the news so easily."
Meikyō gazed into the distance, gave his three subordinates some instructions, and kept rubbing the hilt of the Ama-no-Ohabari sword at his waist to maintain the feel of the sword.
"We understand, Teacher Meikyō!"
Asuma and Yūhi Kurenai exchanged a glance and responded in unison.
Although they didn't want to abandon their teacher, they also knew that the enemy was exceptionally powerful. Last time, Konoha had to send out six Kage Level shinobi to force them back, which showed how terrifying the enemy's strength was.
In a battle of this caliber, those without near -Kage Level strength don't even have the right to intervene.
"Teacher Meikyō, I can already open the Six Gates of my Eight Gates Formation, and even the Seventh Gate with the help of the Golden Potion. I can stay and help you in battle!"
Might Guy said firmly.
"No, Kai, the strength of the Six Gates is still far from sufficient. As for the Seventh Gate of Wonder, how long can you maintain it?"
Meikyō shook his head.
After glancing at Might Guy, who was still hesitating, Meikyō continued:
"If you stay, you will surely die, and I will have to be distracted to protect you. The best solution is for you to open the Eight Gates Formation, take Asuma and Kurenai and fight your way out to inform the village of what is happening here. My Sharingan has Space-Time Ninjutsu, so even if we can't defeat the enemy, we are confident that we can escape unscathed."
So frustrating! I saved up for over 200 pulls to get Eternity Sasuke, and almost all of them were guaranteed to be the pity pull. Even with the initial payment bonus, I only got 75 fragments. I'm so annoyed...
