The Mutant God in American Comics.

Chapter 186 Izanagi
In the forest near Richard's residence.

Uzuki Yugao, holding a vibranium sword, is attacking Richard.

In addition to Konoha-style swordsmanship, she also used the tiger hunting that Richard taught her.

Although she used all her strength, she still failed to hit Richard.

Whether it's swordsmanship or strength, there's a huge gap between the two of them.

If Richard didn't want to be hit by her, she would not be able to hit Richard even if she learned the Flying Thunder God Technique.

When it comes to long-distance movement, Richard's super speed is indeed not as good as Flying Thunder God's.

But in short distance, his super speed is no slower than Flying Thunder God.

The speed of Flying Thunder God is indeed very fast, but the reaction speed of the caster has a limit.

Even if someone uses Flying Thunder God and comes near him, he can use super speed to leave before the other party attacks him, thus avoiding the other party's attack.

Dang, Dang, Dang, Dang...

The crisp sound of vibranium swords colliding with each other continued to ring out.

At the request of Mao Yue Xi Yan, Richard deliberately used the vibranium long sword.

Although it made no difference to him, Uzuki Yugao didn't want him to continue using the wooden sword.

As for the reason, it's simple.

Because if he used the wooden sword, Uzuki Yugao would feel even more incompetent.

In order to take care of Mao Yue Xi Yan's feelings, Richard deliberately used the vibranium sword.

Time passes little by little.

After fighting in the forest for more than half an hour, Richard and Mao Yue Xi Yan finally stopped.

For Richard, this level of fighting was not even a warm-up.

But for Mao Yue Yugao, it was a battle in which she fought with all her might.

This also led to the two of them being in completely different states after the fight.

Richard's breathing was steady and he didn't even sweat much.

Mao Yue Xi Yan was sweating profusely and gasping for breath.

Although she is a special jonin, she does not have a lot of chakra.

It was not easy for her to hold on for more than half an hour even though she was trying her best.

"Let's get here first today."

Richard put the vibranium sword back into the system space and said to Mao Yue Xi Yan.

"it is good!"

Mao Yue Xi Yan replied quickly.

After Mao Yue Xi Yan recovered some strength, the two of them walked towards Richard's residence together.

The day after the funeral of the Third Hokage, Uzuki Yugao started "living together" with Richard.

It was not the kind of cohabitation between lovers, but Mao Yue Xi Yan moved to Richard's house so that she could ask him for advice more conveniently.

Although she didn't have to pay rent, Mao Yue Yugao took on the housework.

For example, washing clothes, cooking, cleaning the room and so on.

Richard did not object and happily accepted Mao Yue Xi Yan as his roommate.

Not long after, they returned to their residence.

"are you hungry?"

"If I'm not hungry, I plan to take a shower first."

Mao Yue Xi Yan said to Richard.

"Go ahead, I'm not hungry."

Richard replied.

After hearing his answer, Mao Yue Xi Yan immediately went to the second bedroom where she lived.

Then, I went to the bathroom with clean clothes.

As for Richard, he came to the study.

Although the Third Hokage is dead, he still has no plans to leave Konoha in the short term.

Not only that, he was also considering whether Tsunade should join Konoha after becoming the Fifth Hokage, become a registered authentic ninja of Konoha, and take some commissions to pass the time.

He does know a lot of ninjutsu and can call himself a ninja.

But without the recognition of the ninja village, or becoming a registered ninja of a ninja village, he would not be able to accept commissions like other ninjas.

Of course, I just can’t get any serious commissions from the ninja village.

If it is an informal commission, no matter whether the ninja is registered in the ninja village or not, he can accept it.

Zabuza is a perfect example.

Although Zabuza is a traitor to the Hidden Mist Village, he still receives various commissions from other people on a regular basis.

However, most of the commissions he accepted as a rebel ninja were murder-related commissions.

Otherwise, the client would not specifically look for the rebel ninja to do the commission, but would just find a random ninja village.

After thinking about it, Richard made a decision and gave up the idea of ​​registering as a ninja in Konoha.

As for the reason, it's simple.

If he registered as a ninja in Konoha, then his superior would not only be Tsunade.

On the surface, only the Hokage can assign tasks to Konoha's ninjas.

but it is not the truth.

The elders and other senior officials in the village also have such rights.

Although he could ignore such a guy, no matter what, as long as he registered as a ninja of Konoha, he would have many more superiors above him.

He doesn't want to see someone telling him what to do in the name of his boss.

As for accepting the commission to kill time, he planned to solve it in a different way.

For example, setting up a private firm similar to a detective agency and accepting commissions from other people.

In this way, not only can he find interesting things to pass the time, but he also won't have any so-called superiors.

very good!

That’s it!

After making the decision, Richard left the study.

Mao Yue Xi Yan stayed in the bathroom for less than twenty minutes before coming out.

After taking a shower, she did not continue to wear the black tights and green vest, but put on a white dress-like home clothes.

I have to say, after changing into this white dress, Mao Yue Xigao looks much better.

After coming out of the bathroom, she went to the living room and asked Richard.

"What do you want to eat?"

Mao Yue Xi Yan asked him.

"whatever."

"I'm not picky about food."

Richard replied quickly.

That being said, what he wanted to eat more now was Uzuki Yugao.

However, even if she wanted to eat, he would not force Mao Yue Xi Yan.

If Mao Yue Xi Yan didn't have that kind of thought, he wouldn't go against Mao Yue Xi Yan's wishes.

After all, this is a matter of principle.

"it is good!"

After hearing Richard's answer, Mao Yue Xi Yan quickly replied.

Then, he turned and went to the kitchen.

Time passes little by little.

More than half an hour later, Mao Yue Yugao prepared a very traditional Japanese lunch.

It wasn't a fancy meal, but it wasn't bad either.

After all, Mao Yue Xi Yan's cooking skills are still good.

After enjoying the lunch cooked by Mao Yue Xi Yan, Richard and she cleaned up the dishes.

While Mao Yue Xi Yan was washing dishes, Richard briefly told her about his plan to open an office.

"If you just want to find something to do, you can register as a ninja in the village. There is no need to open your own office."

Mao Yue Xi Yan said to Richard.

"I don't like being controlled."

Richard replied quickly.

"Ok."

"But if you open a commissioned office in the village, the procedures will be very troublesome."

"After all, this is equivalent to snatching the village's commission."

Mao Yue Xi Yan continued.

"I have considered what you said, so when the Fifth Hokage takes office, I will talk to him personally."

Richard answered casually. Of course, he knew that opening an office was equivalent to stealing the village's commission, but he still decided to do it.

As for how to convince Tsunade, he has already thought about it.

Compared to the Third Hokage, Tsunade is not old-fashioned and is relatively easier to communicate with.

As long as he makes some promises to Tsunade, such as helping Konoha when it is in danger, or promising to provide additional help when Tsunade encounters difficult problems that cannot be solved, there is a high probability that Tsunade will agree to let him open an office.

No matter what, he is now recognized as an S-class ninja by the villagers of Konoha.

Although his strength is stronger than the Kage of the Five Hidden Villages, he only showed a small part of his strength at the Chunin Exam venue.

"Do you think Lady Tsunade would really be willing to come back and serve as the Fifth Hokage?"

Mao Yue Xi Yan turned to look at Richard and asked seriously.

It was no secret in Konoha that Jiraiya was unwilling to serve as the Fifth Hokage and proposed that Tsunade be the Fifth Hokage.

The day after Jiraiya refused to become Hokage, the news had spread throughout the village.

Although the high-ranking officials and villagers of Konoha would prefer Jiraiya to be the Fifth Hokage, there was nothing they could do if Jiraiya was unwilling.

"definitely will!"

Richard replied quickly.

"why?"

Mao Yue Xi Yan looked at Richard in confusion.

"Because she is Tsunade-hime from Konoha!"

"Konoha was built by her grandfather. She will definitely not watch Konoha become the weakest among the five hidden villages."

Richard replied.

That being said, it remains unknown whether Naruto can move Tsunade like in the original work.

In addition, it is still unclear whether Tsunade can overcome the psychological barrier of hemophobia.

If Orochimaru had his soul in both hands sealed by the Third Hokage just like in the original story, Tsunade would most likely be moved by Naruto and overcome her psychological barriers just like in the original story.

But the problem is that Orochimaru does not have the soul sealed in his hands now.

In other words, the battle between the three ninjas in the original work will not happen.

Therefore, Richard couldn't guarantee whether Tsunade would still be the same as in the original work.

However, the possibility of Tsunade inheriting the position of the Fifth Hokage is still very high.

As for the rest, it’s hard to say.

When Mao Yue Xi Yan finished washing the dishes, Richard and she returned to their respective rooms for a nap.

in the afternoon.

They started the same training as in the morning.

Like the morning, their afternoon training lasted just over half an hour.

The result of the training was no different, Mao Yue Xi Yan still failed to hit Richard.

However, Mao Yue Xigao was not hit at all and was still full of fighting spirit.

Hitting Richard means you have accomplished your mission!
This is the goal she set for herself.

After finishing the afternoon training, Richard and Mao Yue Xi Yan returned to their residence together.

Just when Mao Yue Xi Yan was about to go to the bathroom to take a shower and prepare dinner as she did at noon, there was a sudden knock on the door.

After hearing the knock on the door, Richard and Mao Yue Xi Yan both showed surprised expressions.

Without any hesitation, Richard used his super vision to take a look at the door.

Why is it him?

Richard frowned slightly when he saw the visitor at the door.

He thought it was Sasuke who knocked on the door.

After all, Sasuke is the only person besides Uzuki Yugao who would come here to find him.

As it turns out, he was wrong.

The person standing at the door was not Sasuke, but a strange ninja wearing a mask and dressed differently from the Anbu ninjas.

Although he didn't know the other person, Richard guessed his identity after seeing the mask and clothes he was wearing.

根！
The other party is a member of "root".

"Root" is the department established by Danzo to realize his own ideals.

In name only, the Root is the training division of the ANBU.

But in reality, the Root is Danzo's personal organization.

Compared with the Anbu, the Root's actions are more shady and their methods are more cruel. It is the most direct, effective and cruel sword in Konoha's hands.

Unlike the Anbu, the Root, or Danzo, adheres to the policy of "rather kill the wrong person than let him go", eradicating any threat that may threaten Konoha.

It doesn't matter whether the threat comes from inside or outside the village.

The birth and existence of the Root were tacitly approved by the Third Hokage.

Although the Root was created with the tacit consent of the Third Hokage, Danzo once ordered members of the Root to carry out an assassination attempt on the Third Hokage.

After the Fourth Hokage died because of the Nine-Tails, the Third Hokage took over again.

Danzo did not want to see the Third Hokage continue to rule Konoha, so he formed a team of ten people to assassinate the Third Hokage.

But unfortunately, their assassination attempt was not successful because of Kakashi's defection.

After Danzo planned and carried out the Uchiha clan genocide, the Third Hokage removed Danzo from his position as "Assistant Hokage" and asked Danzo to disband the Root.

But within a few years, the roots were rebuilt.

Because of the support of Konoha advisors Mitokado En and Utane Koharu, the Third Hokage was unable to stop Danzo from re-establishing the Root.

It was not until the end of the Fourth World War that Root was once again disbanded amid opposition from the people of Konoha.

But just like before, even though it was disbanded, there are still many people who secretly pledged allegiance to the roots and moved around as remnants.

After opening the door, Richard said to the "Root" ninja who knocked on the door: "Who are you looking for?"

"I'm here to see you, Lord Richard."

"Danzo-sama wishes to meet with you, Richard-sama."

The "Root" ninja wearing a white mask quickly replied.

"Not interested in."

After saying that, Richard closed the door.

Although Danzo himself has considerable strength, he also controls the Root organization of "Darkness of Ninja".

But he still didn't intend to give Danzo face.

He doesn't even care about the Third Hokage, let alone Danzo.

If he was really pissed off, he wouldn't mind cutting off Danzo's Sharingan arm as a collection.

Although Danzo's use of the Sharingan can be described as wasteful, he is not completely useless.

First of all, one of Uchiha Shisui's Mangekyō Sharingan is on Danzo. Danzo's left eye, which is usually covered by bandages, is Uchiha Shisui's Mangekyō Sharingan.

Through Shisui's Mangekyō Sharingan, Danzo can cast Kotoamatsukami, which is known as the "strongest illusion".

In addition, using the Sharingan on his right arm, Danzo can also perform "Izanagi", one of the ultimate eye techniques unique to the Uchiha clan.

Izanagi makes the caster eliminate all unfavorable things that happened to him/her in the past period of time, and only keep the things that are beneficial to him/her.

Even if you are killed, you can still "revive" yourself.

To put it simply, during the duration of Izanagi, the caster is invincible.

Depending on the ability, the duration of Izanagi is not fixed.

The Izanagi cast by Danzo can last for one minute.

Although the duration is different, the result is the same, that is, the Sharingan used to perform the spell will definitely go blind.

However, even if Danzo can use Kotoamatsukami and Izanagi, Richard is absolutely sure that he can kill him.

In other words, kill Danzo before he has time to use Kotoamatsukami and Izanagi.

When Richard returned to the living room, Mao Yue Xi Yan immediately asked, "Who's here?"

"Danzo's men said that Danzo wanted to see me."

Richard replied.

Danzo?

After hearing his answer, Mao Yue Xi Yan immediately frowned.

Although Danzo is no longer the "Assistant Hokage" at this time, he still has considerable power in the village.

Not only does he control the Root organization, but he is also a student of the Second Hokage, and has a close relationship with many of Konoha's high-ranking officials.

Otherwise, Mitokado En and Utane Koharu, who are Konoha's advisors, would not support him in rebuilding the Root organization.

"You're not going to see him?"

Maoyue Xiyan continued to ask.

"Nothing to see."

"Even if we haven't met, I can guess what he wants to say to me."

Richard replied.
