Bloodline Limit - Chapter 506
After all, the words of Sasori had a great impact on him, reminding him of the Tsuchikage. Ryoha didn’t stop him. Needless to say, his idea of making Deidara his subordinate was just a passing thought. It didn’t matter if it succeeded or not. He had plenty of people by his side who could defeat or even kill Deidara. There was no need to make Deidara his subordinate. So Ryoha let him go. But before leaving, he said some words to Deidara.
“Regardless of your identity the next time we meet, whether you’re Deidara of Iwagakure or Deidara of the Akatsuki. If you choose to be my enemy next time we meet, then I’ll send you to the afterlife to reunite with Sasori and the others.”
Deidara had no doubt about the truth in Ryoha’s words. However, he had already made up his mind to be Deidara of Iwagakure. If Iwagakure truly chose the path of confrontation with Ryoha, even if he knew it was a dead end, he would go because there was someone in Iwagakure he couldn’t let go of.
So Deidara ultimately left, and Ryoha didn’t stop or kill him. Since Deidara was returning to Iwagakure, the upcoming Great War would be even more interesting. Anyway, he had given Deidara the opportunity. If Deidara really confronted him at that time, Ryoha would eliminate him. After all, if the Five Great Ninja Villages united and their strength was too weak, it would be pointless.
The last time Ryoha didn’t destroy Kumogakure and Konoha in one go was not only for revenge, but also to unite them completely under this pressure. Then it would be more interesting when the time came.
Because Ryoha knew that the Fourth War might be the final act and the most spectacular battle. After that, Ryoha would rule the Ninja World. Where would there be anyone daring to confront or had the strength to confront him? Of course, take advantage of the last opportunity and have a satisfying battle.
“Bulma, are you going too?” Ryoha saw Bulma ready to go and couldn’t help but ask.
“Of course, although Anko would keep an eye on you, who knows if she might have her own plans. To prevent you from going astray, I’ll go with you,” Bulma said.
The first half of Bulma’s sentence made Anko chuckle secretly, but the latter part of her words seemed to have taken a weird turn. It sounded like she was intentionally going with Ryoha, as if she deliberately wanted to distract Ryoha’s companions, making it easy for her to take action. Thinking of this, Anko looked at Bulma with a kind of resentful gaze, as if Bulma had said something wrong, committing some grave sin.
“Damn Bulma, what does she take me for, mistaking my intentions for something off? Her words make me sound like I have ulterior motives,” Anko thought with a sense of resentment. She looked up and found Tsunade and others looking at her with a teasing gaze, making Anko, who was usually bold and straightforward, feel the urge to find a hole to hide in. Obviously, Bulma was deliberately teasing her.
However, she was quite straightforward. Although she felt extremely embarrassed by Bulma’s words, she still resolutely implemented the decision to be Ryoha’s little follower. After all, she really wanted to go out and have some fun, especially in such an exciting event.
“You silly little guy, they obviously want you to accompany Bulma properly. She has put in a lot of effort for this, even arranging opportunities for you to socialize with girls. Where would they go at this time?”
Tsunade looked at Ryoha with a look that said, ‘You fool,’ and moved her mouth without a hint of kindness. Only Ryoha’s voice entered his ears, and Ryoha suddenly understood. Yes, Bulma had always been selfless towards him, always secretly helping him. Ryoha was very clear that he was not a genius, and without Bulma’s help, he might not have made it to where he was now, let alone reaching the level of a Kage.
Ryoha had never forgotten this. So, as long as it was something Bulma wanted or wanted to do, Ryoha would do his best to achieve it. If he couldn’t, he would try his best to complete it. However, Ryoha was not a Casanova. Sometimes he was a bit dull, especially in understanding women. Bulma or Tsunade, Kurenai, and other women wanted not what he did for them but to be with them.
“Bulma, let’s go.” After understanding this, Ryoha deeply remembered this point. Indeed, having a good home made everything good. It made him notice things he hadn’t noticed before or wasn’t aware of. Ryoha looked at Bulma with a profound gaze, and Bulma smiled sweetly. That sweet and happy look made all the women envy for a moment.
However, they all knew that Bulma had contributed a lot to Ryoha. Their joining was all arranged by Bulma. The women were not malicious; in fact, they had good relationships. They all silently blessed Bulma. Besides, Ryoha was not leaving for good. There would be plenty of opportunities in the future to go out with them individually. Moreover, Ryoha would usually accompany them when he returned after going out. So, there was nothing to be jealous of.
As for Anko, forget it. All the women immediately noticed that she was an adventurous person. Talking about supervising Ryoha, in reality, she just wanted to go out and have fun. With this thrilling event in the Ghost Country, how could she possibly miss such a good opportunity? If she was willing to stay here and not go out, that would be really strange.
“Hiraishin no Jutsu.” Ryoha placed his hands on the shoulders of Anko and Bulma, and in the blink of an eye, they disappeared from the spot.
“His Hiraishin no Jutsu is getting more and more powerful,” Yugao, who suddenly appeared, commented. After coming here, she didn’t sense any hostility from Ryoha, and instead, she settled down peacefully.
But observant people could see that her smile was getting more and more intense. After all, she met many acquaintances here, like Kurenai. She found that life here was much better than in Konoha. At least she didn’t have to deal with the dark side of Konoha anymore.
“I thought you were avoiding him and not willing to come out!” Kurenai said with a cunning smile.
“The life here is not bad. I don’t need to do those missions. It makes me feel more like a normal woman here.” Probably because she had been exposed to the dark side of Konoha since she was a child and had been trained to be an Anbu from a young age, she had always been in a world of killings and bloodshed. This made her long for some peace and an ordinary life.
Just like Itachi, who was exposed to war and bloodshed from childhood, he longed for peace and was even willing to pay any price for it. All of this was related to their personal growth and environment.
“I thought you would fight Ryoha to the death. Who would have thought that even you would be like this? If the people of Konoha knew, I really don’t know what expressions they would have,” Tsunade laughed at Konan with a bit of cunning. But in her heart, she had a different thought:
“Konan, oh Konan, I advise you not to do anything stupid. Otherwise, I don’t mind burying you completely under the ice and snow of the Land of Snow.”
Clearly, she had been secretly paying attention to Konan. However, after Konan escaped with Nagato and was not encountered and killed by Ryoha, she didn’t show any signs of abnormality. She just stayed in her room every day or sat in the garden occasionally, watching the snowflakes falling from the sky. She seemed quiet, like an angel who had retreated from the world.
