Hawks from the Land of Light are calling me a dove and an undercover agent in the chat group.

The Land of Light is a plain, and it doesn't engage in factionalism. If Bruce were to endorse the ninja world, it would be tantamount to appointing him as an envoy to cause trouble within the local civilization.

Therefore, this approach is unacceptable. Using Kassa's name in the ninja world is like having a big meal, but it will definitely lower one's favorability level afterward. A big meal is nothing compared to having a big meal every day!

Moreover, if he acknowledges those things, Orochimaru will see him as an alien, an outsider, and will definitely be more wary of him when they cooperate, which would be too troublesome. It would be much easier to put on the guise of a local ninja branch. As a local, many things would be much easier to carry out.

Besides, Bruce is indeed a ninja, that's for sure. He comes from a ninja branch that is completely different from the Sage of Six Paths' chakra system. Don't forget, his mentor, Rai Shok, was the one who founded the Assassin's Guild. His status as an Assassin Master would be called a Ninja Master in Japan.

This is absolutely true.

"Um……"

Orochimaru's snake eyes swept over Bruce's entire dynamic performance, and his mind raced as he considered the reliability of Bruce's words.

He was mentally prepared that the other party might be a subordinate of the Sage of Six Paths who had returned, or an envoy of something like Ultraman. However, he did not expect that the other party would say something like this: a branch of the Ninja Sect that had been in seclusion for a thousand years and was passed down by the Sage of Six Paths' own brother.

Believe it or not, in the archaeological site he recently unearthed that confirmed the legend of the Sage of Six Paths creating the moon, it actually mentioned that the Sage of Six Paths had a younger brother, but no details were given, and his name was unknown.

From this perspective, Batman's statement may not be just empty talk.

Orochimaru carefully observed and studied him, and he had to admit that Batman was simply the embodiment of ninja art. From his entire body to a single breath, all his assassination techniques were seamlessly integrated into his movements, making him seem like a work of art.

If someone has mastered basic assassination techniques unrelated to ninjutsu and chakra to this level, then that person must have been trained by highly skilled ninjas for a long time and lived in an environment that required the use of such ninja techniques.

This also explains the reliability of the seclusion. The number of people living in seclusion should not be large, but each of them has inherited the ninjutsu techniques of the Sage of Six Paths' brothers. When they have nothing to do, they will spar with each other using ninjutsu skills. Otherwise, they would never have created someone like Batman who is more powerful than most Kage-level masters in basic ninjutsu skills.

If everyone in the opposing organization possessed such artistic ninja skills, it would be normal for them to have prejudices against the chakra ninja world; they certainly have reason to be proud.

But in any case, he cannot show weakness.

Orochimaru gave a forced smile, outwardly remaining noncommittal to Batman's words, and instead asked, "Is the first step to overthrowing the current ninja world to steal my Sasuke as a thief?"

“I will not get involved in your affairs with Uchiha Sasuke. If he is successfully possessed by you, then you will inherit the identity of [Hakimi].” Bruce spoke fluently and skillfully. “Looking at the ninja world today, there are very few researchers with your thirst for knowledge. I think we can bring our talents together.”

Orochimaru asked, feigning surprise, "What? Didn't you say you didn't want chakra? You act like chakra is a disgrace to true ninjas, yet you still want to cooperate with me?"

In terms of physical skills, he might have to admit defeat compared to Batman. The only thing that qualified him to exchange skills with Batman was his ninjutsu, which he had been practicing for many years. But the problem is, didn't the other party previously express a dislike for chakra?

"That's a position you've made up yourself."

Bruce remained unfazed, effortlessly spouting a string of lies.

"Our ancestors did indeed hate chakra, so none of us in this lineage possess chakra. But times have changed. After a thousand years of development, your ninjutsu has been innovated and is now much more powerful and effective than that of ninjas other than the Six Paths Ninjas a thousand years ago. It still has many merits."

"Although we are not bad either, and have our own characteristics, if we want to overthrow this corrupt and evil ninja world, chakra and ninjutsu are indispensable to me. As long as they are useful, we will use them as weapons, and there is no need to hide them."

Orochimaru nodded unconsciously. Very good. He liked this kind of spirit, which showed a strong scientific mindset.

But he wouldn't back down just because of this bit of goodwill. He immediately gave a sinister laugh: "Heh, my knowledge of chakra and ninjutsu is indeed far ahead of the rest of the ninja world. But the question is, what can you offer me?"

"That depends on how much you're willing to sacrifice," Bruce said quietly.

The two systems are different. He must have a lot of products and knowledge that can arouse Orochimaru's curiosity. However, how to win more cooperation depends on their respective abilities and verbal skills.

Uchiha Sasuke stared blankly at the two strangers who seemed to be having a pleasant conversation, even though they were meeting for the first time. He was momentarily dazed. He thought he would be the center of attention, but it turned out that he didn't seem to matter at all.

Although this is probably a good thing, I still feel a little disappointed.

Sasuke was dazed for a moment, then steadied himself and returned to the chat group, angrily exhaling.

[King of Resilience]: "@Pro-war faction, you didn't even tell me Bruce was a near-Kage level powerhouse! You caused me to make a huge misjudgment! Damn it!"

……

"Hikari, here you go."

The distant M78 Nebula, a glorious land of light, bustling and noisy.

As soon as Kasa returned, before even landing and before Hachiman Hikigaya and Miko Yotsuya could come to greet him, he took off at the speed of light and went straight to the Space Science and Technology Bureau. He then dumped all the intelligence information he had collected about the DC world, as well as various specialties from that world, onto Hikari.

"Huh?" Hikari was completely stunned.

Thanks for the invitation. I was working overtime at the Technology Bureau, trying to figure out how to further improve Kassadin's damaged student armor while repairing it, when suddenly a bunch of inexplicable information was crammed into my head: the Origin Wall, Barbatos, the Dark Multiverse, the Emotional Spectrum, supervillains, and insane heroes.

Holy crap, this is some kind of dark stuff, I'm not clean anymore!

“No, let me sort this out for a bit,” Hikari felt a tingling sensation, tapping his head as his eyes sharpened. “Does this kind of universe really exist? Did you go to such a place yourself?”

“It’s a pity, and I also hope it’s fake.” Kasa shook his head slightly and sighed. “That kind of world is something that I alone, or even the entire Land of Light, cannot solve. Hikari, you must create an item that will allow the King to go to that world.”

"I think only you can do this."

Upon receiving confirmation of the intelligence, Hikari remained silent for a moment, his heart filled with mixed emotions. In those two short seconds, he mourned and lamented the DC world countless times before solemnly vowing, "Alright, I will definitely create that thing!"

The Origin Wall of the DC universe separates the multiverse from other completely unrelated universes. It is a multi-level, no, even a super-multi-level isolation wall, meaning that it cannot be broken by brute force from the outside. It is not worthwhile and would also damage that world, so it cannot be done.

Either you bypass the wall that envelops the entire DC world, or you make that wall actively eliminate its resistance to outsiders.

Regardless of the option chosen, even for Hikari, this is an incredibly difficult challenge. He can say without hesitation that, in his entire life, apart from creating life solidification technology from scratch, the demand brought by Kasa this time is the highest.

Moreover, the difficulty of this is different from that of life solidification technology.

Life solidification technology is something that would erase his knowledge and allow him to start over; he might not be able to create it successfully again.

As for enabling Ultraman to travel to the DC world, although he has only just received the requirements, he can already guarantee that he can build it because he already has an idea, but it will take a long time.

The difficulty here is time.

To achieve his ultimate goal, he needs to create many prefix technologies that are not yet available in the Land of Light. No one else can do it. Although they are just prefix technologies, only he can create them.

No matter how anxious he is, although he will be working overtime in the Technology Bureau for most of the time, from Kasa's perspective, it will probably be quite a long time.

Hikari sincerely hoped that the DC world could hold on until his research was completed.

“I will do my best here, Kasa.”

Hikari made his assurance and added, "Unfortunately, there's no use in rushing this. By the way, you also have things to take care of. The captain has been looking for you recently. It seems the martial arts tournament is finally about to begin. You've come back just in time."

Chapter 229 The Life of Father of Ultra

"Just a little bit more, just a little bit more, ahh ...

It broke his back!

At the top of the Tower of Ultra, having finally finished reviewing the last official matter, Father of Ultra visibly breathed a sigh of relief. His words revealed obvious fatigue, as well as a sense of joy at finally being free.

This captain's position is really inhuman. Look at this, if Old Black Bei wanted to do weightlifting, he could have done it, but instead he was sent back to Ultra Prison. Sigh, it makes me feel like I've aged ten thousand years.

Father of Ultra sighed heavily. He and Belial were about the same age. When others looked at Belial, it was obvious that he was in his prime. In human terms, he would be at most thirty years old, which is the peak of his entrepreneurial and enterprising years.

And then there's the Alien Empera. Everyone says he and the Alien Empera are sworn enemies. Look, 30,000 years have passed, and he's still incredibly powerful, like he's in his prime at thirty, young and strong.

But no matter who sees him, Father of Ultra, it's a blessing if they don't say something like, "You useless old thing, you'll die of old age in a couple of years." Even the most eloquent person would probably only be able to say something like, "Still going strong in your old age." Even a dog would shake its head at that. He exudes the aged and decaying air of an old man.

It's all because of these officials from the Land of Light.

If he could be like Belial or the Alien Empera, one hiding in prison all day and not having to do anything, and the other handing over the entire empire's territory to the universe's number one beast, Mefilas, then he could also confidently guarantee that he was still young and full of vigor!

If the three of them were to stand together now and leave the Land of Light for another universe, no matter who saw them, they would all think that Father of Ultra's age and seniority must be at least a generation higher than Belial and Emperor Alien.

It's a pity that the Land of Light doesn't have someone like Mefilas, or rather, Father of Ultra is the biggest beast of burden in the entire Land of Light, while Jack is just a second-generation beast of burden.

Of course, if it involves official business of saving lives or the planet, he will be the most proactive and take the initiative to handle it without hesitation.

The problem right now is that there aren't many cases involving human lives; it's mostly about various interpersonal relationships, invitations to visit the Land of Light, interstellar trade, factionalism—it's all so annoying.

After his great battle with Alien Empera, and the subsequent great battle in which all forces joined forces to fight against the enhanced Gatanothor, it seems that the people of the entire universe feel that their Land of Light is not what it used to be, and they want to step forward and support it, rather than just carrying the flag.

So the current situation is that, under the leadership of some ignorant and delusional extraterrestrials, various extraterrestrial civilizations have taken sides to some extent.

It's not exactly about seeking refuge, although some people directly say they want to seek refuge, but the vast majority express the idea of ​​"two families becoming friends" and "friendship lasting forever".

Some civilizations gravitate towards the Emperor's Empire, some towards the Kingdom, and some towards the Kingdom of Light. Among these, the number of those gravitating towards the Kingdom is the largest. The Emperor's Empire is slightly less so, while the Kingdom is relatively new and has few gravitating forces.

If these civilizations were to actually surrender, that would be fine. In that case, it would be simpler; Father of Ultra could simply wave his hand and refuse, stating that our Land of Light does not engage in such hegemony or factionalism. Our stance is solely on universal peace; we will not form alliances with anyone, nor will we become anyone's backer.

But these civilizations just won't surrender to you; they're in this ambiguous, half-and-half state. So what can you do?

They said, "Oh my, the Land of Light is so beautiful! I've loved your culture and aesthetics for a long time. Come on, let's have more exchanges in the future. You can also see if our culture and aesthetics can improve a bit. For the sake of mutual cultural learning, you see, on our planet, cough cough, could you send a security guard over there and move it to the M78 Nebula?"

As for the various unique technologies on our planet that we are sharing during this cultural exchange, it's alright if your people accidentally see them. This is just a small protection fee we're offering you... Ah, no, it's just that we were careless and not cautious enough. This little bit of technology doesn't matter.

Don't worry, we really didn't mean anything by it. We just wanted to make it easier for us to communicate about our cultures!

If someone insists on saying that, what can you do? You can't just point your finger at them and say, "I can tell from your attitude that you have ulterior motives. Are you trying to force our Land of Light to make a mistake?"

Even the Father of Ultra, who has been a beast of burden for tens of thousands of years, would have to scratch his head when faced with such a situation.

That's not all. Let's talk about the Martial Arts Tournament Nebula. Because it's close to the M78 Nebula and was essentially created because of the Ultra Constellation Incident, it's generally acknowledged throughout the universe that more than two-thirds of the power and territory of that place belong to the Land of Light, and less than one-third belong to the Emperor Empire.

It's so bustling over there now, and even a fool can see that for at least a million years to come, that area will be the most valuable piece of land in the entire main universe. A whole bunch of people are scrambling to transport goods there to open shops and participate in the market.

So here's the problem: whether it's a normal cosmic civilization, a dark nebula civilization, or even a civilization within the Emperor's Empire, they all compiled a long list of their various specialties into an encyclopedia-like book and collectively sent it to the Land of Light.

Let this side take a look and see what things your Land of Light doesn't allow. Cross those out. We're all law-abiding citizens, okay? We can fight however we want outside of the Martial Arts Tournament, but in this area, we'll give your Land of Light face so everyone can have an easier time and avoid trouble.

Well, they saved themselves some trouble, but the Land of Light is exhausted.

This is a specialty of every civilization in the entire universe!

Even those backward civilizations that currently lack the ability to travel to the Martial Arts Tournament Nebula have all followed suit and compiled their own unique books, sending them over in anticipation of the future. They believe that the universe may enter a period of great peace in the future, which will bring about a period of great trade. At that time, perhaps advanced aliens will visit those backward civilizations to exchange goods and resources.

Therefore, if one can obtain official screening from the Land of Light in advance, one will naturally be more competitive when facing trade with advanced aliens, and will not be subject to price suppression and nitpicking on the grounds that "the goods from your place are not good enough, and you are not authorized by the Land of Light".

As for handing over their own civilization and all the special products of their planet to the Kingdom of Light, will it cause any adverse effects, such as making them have no secrets from the Kingdom of Light?

Haha, are you awake? Look at your pathetic state. Do you think all the scientists in the entire civilization could possibly outmaneuver a random Blue Clan intern in the Science and Technology Bureau?

If you submit your local specialty products and happen to encounter an overly enthusiastic reviewer who glances at the content and thinks it can be improved, they might spend a few seconds sketching out an improved version as a gift. You'll make a fortune on the spot!

This process, spreading from person to person, has truly reached the entire universe—no, and even more than just the entire universe—except for those primitive people who haven't even evolved a complete language system and basic technology.

Because there are quite a few foreign civilizations nowadays.

For example, the two civilizations that came from the "Emerald Universe" – the Emerald Alien Civilization and the Godzish Civilization – seem to have had a significant impact on the battle between the Land of Light's main universe and Gatanothor, resulting in the creation of a stargate connecting them and enabling them to reconnect with the universe.

After a security guard discovered the situation, he originally wanted to call in his men to blow up the Godz civilization, which practiced the law of the jungle, plundered and burned, and liked to invade other people's homes. The latter was laughing and saying that they were the strongest civilization in the universe and would definitely annihilate this nonsense Ultraman.

I'm going to invade the Land of Light and make all of you random giants of light become slaves and dogs for our planet Goth!

As soon as the guards unleashed their Starburst Rays, they were so frightened that they immediately declared that they wanted to participate in the martial arts tournament and begged for their lives, wailing that they would never do it again.

The Emerald aliens declared that while Gothia might escape death, he couldn't escape punishment. They said they would send two Jumber A and Jumber Nai robots to compete and give him a good beating!

Naturally, these two civilizations also had the foresight to do business and sent over lists of local specialties. Moreover, there were far more than just these two extraterrestrial civilizations or visitors.

It's unclear how these civilizations inexplicably reached a consensus. Generally speaking, the more people there are, the harder it is to manage, and this is especially true for civilizations. Surprisingly, everyone has voluntarily sent their names to the Land of Light, and I haven't seen anyone who is dissatisfied or deliberately refuses to send theirs!

They even reached a consensus that made the templates for the list of local specialties clear and consistent.
