Chapter 156

Little one

Onee: "Was I not selected?"

Onee: "So it's because there were too many participants this time, is it?"

My Sister Is Super Cute: "Mr. Onee, didn't you already participate in our world's mission last time?"

Onee: "Shut up! Be quiet."

My Sister Is Super Cute: "......"

Gao Ban Jingjie trembled nervously—when the big shot got angry, the rookie had better just follow his heart and stay quiet.

Can't handle them, can't handle them.

Tony Not the Richest: "......Too bad! I was actually planning to use this chance to visit the Naruto World! And check on Uzumaki Nagato's body at the same time—then I could save 100 points of积分."

Shishi: "Mr. Big Poo! Speaking of which, aren't you the richest man in the guild, the number one tycoon?"

Shishi: "Why are you so stingy about spending even 100 points of积分?"

Tony Not the Richest: "......"

Shishi always managed to wound her guildmates' hearts with her sharp tongue at just the right moment.

Tony Not the Richest: "Maybe... I have money, but I don't have any积分..."

As Tony said this, he himself felt a deep sense of sorrow.

He asked himself honestly.

A once-in-a-lifetime billionaire of the Marvel Universe—when had he ever suffered such humiliation? "I can't take it anymore... I can't bear this injustice!"

"Just go ahead and buy that burger chain I ate yesterday!"

After a moment of thought, Tony called his assistant Pepper Potts and instructed her to buy out every single branch of the burger chain he'd eaten at yesterday.

A massive amount of money flowed out, finally allowing Tony Stark to breathe a sigh of relief.

Only then did he feel, for the first time, the real weight of being the world's richest man—he lit a cigarette with a melancholy sigh.

Su Xiao: "Since the personnel going have been decided! Then let's move out! Everyone, see you in the Naruto World."

Fourth Hokage: "No problem, I'll come get you."

Fourth Hokage: "Let the world feel pain."

Wait—I'll use Flying Thunder God Technique and bring you along too.

Though the distance is far, my current chakra level should be enough.

Su Han immediately shifted his consciousness back to the real world without hesitation.

As usual, he bid farewell to Ram and Rem.

Ram and Rem didn't seem particularly surprised.

After all, if it were just once or twice, they might worry—but Su Han disappearing from time to time? They’d long grown accustomed to it.

"Please rest assured, master! As always, no matter how long it takes, Ram will wait quietly for your return."

Ram stepped forward and hugged Su Han briefly before stepping back.

She moved to Rem’s side and gently tugged on Rem’s sleeve.

Rem glanced at Ram, a flicker of hesitation crossing her face.

But after Ram’s encouragement, Rem took two deep breaths and stepped forward, gazing intently at Su Han before her.

"What is it, my dear Rem?"

Su Han raised an eyebrow, smiling as he looked at Rem before him.

"Wishing you victory upon your return, master!"

With determination, Rem rushed forward and tightly embraced Su Han’s body, then lifted her head and lightly pecked his cheek—just a touch—before quickly stepping back.

Rem stood beside Ram, bowing her head deeply, a faint blush spreading across her cheeks.

Su Han paused, gently touching the spot where Rem had kissed him.

He chuckled softly, "No need to worry."

After a slight pause, Su Han spoke with utter calmness.

"Because... my victory is inevitable!"

In the next instant, Su Han vanished from before their eyes.

Rem timidly glanced at Ram—though her actions had been approved by Ram, she still felt a faint sense of confusion and shame within.

Seeing this, Ram sighed helplessly, "Rem, what are you still standing here for? Go do your chores!"

"And today, we’ll continue sparring! The training ground behind the villa area isn’t fully built yet, but the basic structure is done! Let’s go there today."

Rem blinked, then her eyes lit up instantly as she looked at Ram, nodding joyfully, "Yes, sister, no problem!"

......Naruto World.

Ichiraku Ramen Shop.

Uzumaki Nagato and Six Paths Pain appeared here simultaneously.

Black robes with red clouds draped over them.

Rinnegan eyes cold, devoid of any emotion.

Minato Namikaze stared at Uzumaki Nagato, his gaze filled with a hint of emotion.

Nagato was no longer disabled as he had been during their first meeting.

Under the guild’s power, he had rebuilt his body.

Yet, Minato sensed something and slightly frowned.

"Your body... is starting to overexert again."

Minato could feel that Nagato’s chakra was constantly operating at its absolute limit.

After a brief silence, Nagato reached up and touched his eyes, his voice hoarse.

"After all, these eyes are not mine..."

"Just like your disciple Kakashi, using eyes that do not belong to you carries an unbearable burden."

Naruto Uzumaki opened his mouth, but in the end, a faint bitter smile appeared on his face.

In the face of this situation, he had nothing to say.

At root, these eyes were never those of Uzumaki Nagato, but rather those of Madara Uchiha.

Uzumaki Nagato was merely a member of the Uzumaki clan, possessing vast chakra.

He was not even of the Uchiha clan, having no blood relation whatsoever to Madara Uchiha.

To wield such an immensely powerful force as the Rinnegan, the only cost was immense exhaustion.

For... Uzumaki Nagato, it was already worth it.

Uzumaki Nagato was completely at ease; his body gradually weakened, simply because such a price had to be paid.

"Speaking of which..."

Uzumaki Nagato paused for a moment.

He gazed at the still-young-looking ramen shop owner, who smiled as he brought forward a plate of ramen.

His voice was calm.

"Fourth Hokage... are you really so fond of Ichiraku Ramen?"

The last time Uzumaki Nagato came to Konoha, the Fourth Hokage had given him Ichiraku Ramen.

And this time, it was again Ichiraku Ramen.

This truly surprised Uzumaki Nagato.

"After all, it's the ramen my future child loves!"

Minato Namikaze's voice carried a hint of tenderness, then he gave Uzumaki Nagato a wry smile.

"Besides, in the Hokage world, the elders should be most familiar with Ichiraku Ramen... I feel they'd be quite curious about what Ichiraku Ramen actually tastes like."

"The Fourth Hokage is absolutely right!"

A calm voice rang out.

Both of them froze, then turned toward the source of the sound.

In a breath, space twisted, and three figures suddenly appeared before them.

Leading the group stood Su Han, a faint smile playing on his face.
