Yugao looked at her own name, and swallowed back all the explanations she had prepared.
Zhang Yu stood beside her.
The name has been revealed.
"Um."
This shows that you genuinely accept it.
Yugao immediately retorted.
"The fact that my name appears on the badge only means that I've accepted the tavern's identity."
I didn't say anything else.
"You just said that."
What did I say?
"You say..."
Yugao stopped speaking.
She simply couldn't bring herself to say those words again in front of Bai and Xiang.
Zhang Yu laughed.
"Never mind if you can't remember."
Yugao put the badge away and turned around.
I'll continue fishing.
A system notification appeared at that moment.
"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have completed a new CP Pairing Achievement."
"Ding!" Zhang Yu and Uzuki Yugao have become a couple.
"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have received 500,000 gold coins."
"Ding! Host's current balance: 11,475,000 coins."
Three consecutive romantic relationships.
Before Zhang Yu could even feel happy, another system notification sounded.
"Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained the title 'Scumbag'! Reward: 25,000 gold coins."
"Ding! Host's current balance: 11.5 million gold coins."
Zhang Yu was completely stunned.
A few seconds later, he shouted it out.
"On what grounds?"
Bai, Xiang, and Yugao all looked at him at the same time.
Xiang asked in confusion:
"What right do you have?"
"Nothing."
Zhang Yu, his face dark, continued to question the system in his mind.
How did I become a jerk?
"I only gave you three badges, why did I get a 'scumbag' label?"
The system did not respond.
Zhang Yu reviewed what he had just said.
Once you put on the badge, you belong to him.
That statement does sound a bit off.
What he meant to say was that once you put on the badge, you belonged to one of his own in the tavern.
As a result, the word "tavern" was omitted.
The meaning changed on the spot.
No wonder the three of them hesitated to accept it.
What's even more outrageous is that they all eventually accepted it.
Zhang Yu looked at the three of them.
Bai had already sat back down by the fishpond, but his hand kept touching the spot where the badge had been.
Xiang also held the fishing rod, a smile always on her lips.
Yugao had her back to him, and the redness at the base of her ears hadn't faded yet.
Not a single person refused.
Zhang Yu chuckled.
Saying two fewer words doesn't seem like such a bad thing.
"You guys keep fishing."
"The braised fish for lunch is up to you."
Nodding blankly.
"Don't worry, Brother Zhang Yu."
Xiang also picked up her fishing rod again.
"Let's catch a few more later."
Yugao did not turn around.
"Knew."
Zhang Yu walked leisurely away from the fishpond, his hands behind his back.
He crossed the backyard and returned to the tavern's front hall.
Hashirama, Madara, Tobirama, Izuna, Asura, and Indra are all present.
The group hadn't gone far after they parted ways.
Hashirama was still looking at his golden badge.
Ban sat beside him, drinking tea, occasionally glancing in his direction.
Zhang Yu walked straight to the sofa and lay down.
"Come here, everyone."
"Getting ready to welcome the new couple."
Hashirama immediately put away the badge.
"Boss, are you about to begin the summoning?"
"That's right."
Ban was the first to walk over.
The Sage of Six Paths?
"That's him."
Indra and Asura rose at the same time.
The two of them moved faster than the others.
Izuna also stood up from his chair.
Tobirama closed the ledger and walked to the sofa.
The crowd formed a circle.
Zhang Yu opened the system interface and gave the command in his mind.
"System, forcibly summon the Sage of Six Paths!"
"Ding! Force summoning ' Hagoromo Otsutsuki ' requires 10 million gold coins. Force summon now?"
Zhang Yu did not hesitate for a moment.
Forced Summoning!
"Ding! Forced summoning of ' Hagoromo Otsutsuki ' has begun."
"Ding! Summoning successful!"
In the center of the tavern's foyer, a white beam of light rose from the floor.
The light instantly illuminated the entire foyer.
Hashirama instinctively took a half step back.
Chakra stared Tobirama the pillar of light, carefully sensing the chakra within it.
"Very strong."
Ban had already stood up straight.
The purple Rinnegan then activated.
"This kind of Chakra is definitely not something an ordinary ninja can possess."
The Asura and Indra did not speak.
Both of them stared at the center of the pillar of light.
A dozen seconds later, the white light began to dissipate.
A figure appeared before the crowd.
White Ninshu Attire.
He held a black tin staff in his hand.
It has two horns on its head.
Nine Truth-Seeking Orb floated behind him.
Hagoromo Otsutsuki slowly opened his eyes.
A pair of Rinnegan swept across the front hall.
Madara Uchiha forward and began to scrutinize this legendary powerhouse.
"You are the Sage of Six Paths?"
Hagoromo did not answer immediately.
His gaze fell upon the Asura and Indra.
For the first time, a clear look of surprise appeared on his face.
Indra.
" Asura."
Why are you here?
Asura strode forward.
"Father!"
Indra quickened his pace.
Although he didn't shout like Asura, his breathing became noticeably heavier.
Hagoromo looked at her two sons, then glanced around.
Hashirama.
spot.
Tobirama.
Izuna.
And there's Zhang Yu lying on the sofa.
What he was seeing was beyond his comprehension.
Where is this place?
Why are you all here at the same time?
Indra came before the Hagoromo.
"Father, this is the Undead Tavern."
"Things are a bit complicated."
I'll explain it to you slowly.
Hagoromo looked at Indra.
His eldest son, with whom he had once had a strained relationship, now stood before him, his tone no longer cold.
He tightened his grip on the tin staff.
"Good."
Indra begins his story at the Undead Tavern.
People who have died can be summoned.
The tavern is connected to Konoha.
Hashirama, Madara, Tobirama, and Izuna have all returned to the present world.
Asura and he also lived here for a long time.
Hagoromo listened very slowly.
Asura would occasionally add a few words.
Hashirama stood to the side, watching the three of them reunite, a smile on his face.
Tobirama, however, kept observing the Truth-Seeking Orb behind Hagoromo.
Madara's Rinnegan was not closed.
The Sage of Six Paths of the Shinobi World finally appeared before him.
Zhang Yu leaned back on the sofa, watched for a while, and suddenly remembered the replication ability that the system had rewarded him with.
He received one right after the Summer Festival ended.
Is there anyone more suitable to be replicated than the Sage of Six Paths?
Zhang Yu immediately recited it silently in his mind.
"Replicating Hagoromo Otsutsuki's power!"
"Ding! Re-run begins!"
A tremendous force surged into Zhang Yu's body in an instant.
"Ding! 10% has been replicated..."
Zhang Yu closed his eyes.
The Chakra within his body began to surge.
It's not just increasing little by little.
Instead, it increased exponentially.
The meridians, flesh and blood, and spiritual energy all change simultaneously.
"Ding! 30% of the items have been replicated..."
In the front hall, Tobirama was the first to notice something was wrong.
He suddenly turned his head to look at Zhang Yu.
"The boss's Chakra is increasing."
Madara also looked over.
The Rinnegan stared intently at Zhang Yu on the sofa.
"This is not a normal enhancement."
"His power is approaching that of the Sage of Six Paths."
