Chapter 56: The Verbal Persuasion Master, Terrifying Indeed

Understanding roughly what had happened, Su Han's face wore a look of helpless amusement.

He shook his head and closed the Tianhe Weibo interface.

His purpose in acting had been fulfilled—he had verified his own strength.

As for the massive online storm his actions had ignited, he did not care. He had just used the power of the Dark Fruit to obscure others' perception; no one could possibly discover his true identity. That was enough.

Su Han was not afraid of anything—he simply felt that if his identity were truly exposed, he would no longer be able to live in peace. Since his identity remained hidden, no one would come to disturb him.

Now, he simply wanted to quietly lurk in the chat room.

Su Han entered the chat room.

Let the World Feel Pain: "I've arrived at Konoha, standing outside Ichiraku Ramen. Fourth Hokage, why haven't you shown up yet? @Fourth Hokage."

Fourth Hokage: "Don't rush! This time, I've brought someone you've been eager to meet! Wait a moment—you can talk with him properly."

Let the World Feel Pain: "…"

Let the World Feel Pain: "The person I wanted to meet…"

Miss Xia Shizi: "The Fourth Hokage is definitely scheming behind the scenes! I'll bet fifty cents this is definitely Jiraiya!"

My Little Sister Is Not Cute: "It's definitely Jiraiya—what's there to debate? The reason Uchiha Changmen has an irreconcilable conflict with Konoha lies with Danzo! To ease tensions between Uchiha Changmen and Konoha, Jiraiya must appear."

Symbol of Peace: "Tears well up! Especially the scene where Uchiha Changmen kills Jiraiya—it's simply… tragic. A ninja is one who endures everything. Uchiha Changmen, now that you know the future, you must honor your Master properly."

Let the World Feel Pain: "…"

Let the World Feel Pain: "Though I no longer wish to kill Master Jiraiya, that doesn't mean I'll follow the path shown in the memory copy of Naruto. I don't know why that version of me in the memory copy ultimately softened and entrusted the future to Uzumaki Naruto—but at least now, I won't do that."

Let the World Feel Pain: "I will keep searching—for a new, practical path!"

My Sister Is Truly Amazing: "A master of mouth-ninjutsu, terrifyingly fearsome!"

Fallen Angel Twelve-Winged Black Cat Clan: "A master of mouth-ninjutsu, terrifyingly fearsome!"

Tony Is Not the Richest: "A master of mouth-ninjutsu, terrifyingly fearsome!"

Symbol of Peace: "Verbal Persuasion is truly worthy of being ranked alongside Illusionary Persuasion as the supreme technique! You might scoff or be confused watching from outside, but only when facing it directly can you realize its terror—it's something you simply cannot resist."

Tony Is Not the Richest: "Countless years later, when Uchiha Changmen met that golden-haired boy from Konoha once more, he remembered again the terror once dominated by Verbal Persuasion."

Let the World Feel Pain: "…"

Let the World Feel Pain: "You guys are really boring, you know!"

Let the World Feel Pain: "The Eye of the Moon Plan has been abandoned, but that only proves this path is unworkable! I'll pursue another path. If I can't find the right one, I'll keep growing stronger—stronger than anyone else!"

Let the World Feel Pain: "When my power surpasses Uchiha Madara and rivals the Six Paths Sage, who then could stop me if I wished to unify this world and bring it true peace?"

Fallen Angel Twelve-Winged Black Cat Clan: "…"

Tony Is Not the Richest: "…"

I Am the Hou Jue: "Hahaha! Uchiha Changmen speaks wisely—I can confirm this is true! When your power surpasses all others, even if you act recklessly, people will fear you; even if you are gentle and humble, they will still kneel, worship you, and obey every one of your wills."

I Am the Hou Jue: "Because in this world! Only the strong may possess everything."

Tony Is Not the Richest: "I don't quite agree with your views! @I Am the Hou Jue. But… sigh, fine—it's a matter of perspective!"

Tony Stark very much wanted to argue with Uchiha Changmen and Marquis Wo Ban.

Yet no matter how biting his tongue, whenever he thought of the power held by the two guys chatting in the guild, he wisely kept his mouth shut.

Is Uchiha Changmen strong? Naturally, he is strong.

One use of Shinra Tensei flattened an entire village. If translated into Tony Stark's real world, even if Konoha's size doesn't match a modern metropolis, it could still flatten at least one district of New York, right?

As for Marquis Wo Ban, there's no need to say more.

Marquis Wo Ban is a confirmed nation-destroying combatant—a true god-slayer.

I Am the Hou Jue: "@Tony Is Not the Richest. Hmph, weakling!"

Let the World Feel Pain: "@Tony Is Not the Richest. Hmph, pitiful weakling."

Tony Is Not the Richest: "…"

Miss Xia Shizi: "Tsk tsk, Tony Stark? Do you think possessing great power brings happiness? You're wrong! Great power means nothing."

Miss Xia Shizi: "Because the joy of possessing great power is beyond your imagination."

Tony Is Not the Richest: "????"

Tony Is Not the Richest: "That's too much!"
