My name is Sasuke, from being the richest man in Naruto to dominating the world

Chapter 628 Return to Soul Society
"Onii-chan..."

Mei's voice trembled a little. She looked at the figure in the frying pan, and all her original memories came back.

She recalled her childhood experiences, her brother's protection of her, the time when she was burned by the samurai, and the experiences of the brother and sister after they became ghosts.

"plum."

Kifutaro sat in the frying pan, looking at his sister calmly with a smile on his face.

"I was originally worried about you, worried that you would not be able to live well after leaving me, but now it seems that my worries are unnecessary. This person takes good care of you."

"I, I'm fine, Sasuke... Onii-chan is very good to me, brother, can you, can you come out? How long are you going to stay here..."

Mei asked, sobbing.

"How long will I stay? That depends on the Lord of Hell. But I estimate that with the sins I have committed, I will have to stay for a long time."

Kifutaro laughed at himself.

After becoming a ghost, he did too many evil things and ate too many people. He had to atone for all these sins. In order to free Mei from the sea of ​​suffering, he took the initiative to take over Mei's part, which meant that the sins he had to wash away were doubled.

Of course, he couldn't tell Mei about these things. He had to bear the atonement alone.

When Mei heard this, she immediately looked to the side.

"Yan, Lord Yanwang..."

"Stop looking, I'm right here."

The little King of Hell suddenly appeared beside Mei, then casually pulled out a booklet from the void and flipped through it a few times.

"Qifu Taro, let me see... Well, it still needs to be soaked in the oil pan for 500 years. Tsk, tsk, there's still that much time. I guess it will be soaked in the flavor by then."

The little King of Hell laughed unscrupulously.

Without considering the impact this sentence would have on Mei.

"How...how could this happen..."

As expected, she was completely stunned, and her eyes lost their light on the spot.

"Okay, little King of Hell, stop scaring her."

Zhou Ming appeared from the air beside him and gently touched Mei's head.

"Don't worry. First of all, the time in hell is different from that outside. Secondly, you still have an infinite lifespan. Theoretically, you can wait forever."

“But I also want to remind you that even if your brother redeems all his sins, you will most likely never meet again, because by then he will enter the cycle of reincarnation and be reborn as a new person.

His appearance will change, his soul will be cleansed, all his memories will be gone, and you won't recognize him even if you see him."

Little King of Hell doesn't care about Mei's thoughts as much as Zhou Ming does. He chooses to tell the truth.

As for whether Mei can accept it, that is her own business.

"So, Mei, leave now. This is what I deserve. Don't worry about me. Didn't you hear what Lord Yama said? After hundreds of years, when I have washed away my sins, I can live my life again as an ordinary person. This is a good thing. You should be happy for me."

Kifutaro said with a smile.

“That’s right. You should be happy because he is considered a person with a very light crime here. There are people below who have committed more serious sins than him. Some of them don’t even have the chance to enter reincarnation and will stay here forever to be punished.

In comparison, your brother is very lucky."

The little King of Hell put his hands behind his back and spoke in a childish voice.

This is absolutely correct. Although he became a ghost and ate people, he is not the real culprit after all. In comparison, Muzan Kibutsuji's sins are much more serious. He is the kind of super sinner who will never be reincarnated.

Compared to him, Kifutaro is much luckier.

Mei wanted to say something, but unfortunately the little King of Hell didn't intend to let her continue. He just waved his hand and sent Mei and Zhou Ming out.

After they disappeared, Kifutaro finally roared.

"Ahhhhhhh-"

Being in a frying pan is not an easy task. His previous behavior was actually all a disguise. He just didn't want his sister to see his miserable side, and he didn't want her to worry about him.

Now that the person is gone, he finally doesn't have to hold it in anymore.

There is no such thing as getting used to it, because all injuries directly affect the soul. Even if this kind of pain continues for many years, the pain will not decrease at all. There is no such thing as nerve numbness. Every second, the pain is felt 100%.

The little King of Hell looked at him, shook his head, and turned away.

There are many people like this in hell. If it weren't for Zhou Ming and Mei, he wouldn't bother to come to such a place in person.

On the other side, Zhou Ming brought Mei back to the others.

Shinobu was the first to notice that Mei was in a bad mood. Her eyes were red, as if she had been crying. She walked to Mei and gently hugged her shoulders.

The next second, Mei threw herself into her arms.

"Shinobu-sister...I'm sorry."

"Uh, why are you saying sorry to me?"

Shinobu didn't understand why.

"Anyway, I'm just sorry."

Mei really couldn't tell the truth that he used to be a ghost, so he could only keep apologizing.

"Okay, everyone, it's time for us to go. Next stop, the New World!"

Zhou Ming directly opened the portal and led everyone in.

……

Death world.

The world has regained some prosperity, and the frost damage brought by the Burning Legion is gradually dissipating.

Of course, the pain left in the hearts of human beings is not so easy to disappear. After all, the world's population has dropped sharply. It is impossible to say that such a big thing will be forgotten in a blink of an eye, unless Zhou Ming directly activates the Infinite Tsukuyomi.

Zhou Ming and his group appeared in Karakura Town. Looking at the tall buildings around them, everyone couldn't help but exclaim in amazement. "You will have plenty of opportunities to come here to play in the future. Now, come with me to the Seireitei."

In fact, it is not impossible to open the portal directly to Jinglingting, but Zhou Ming still took everyone to stay briefly in Karakura Town first. The purpose was very simple, which was to let them broaden their horizons.

Soul Society is undergoing tremendous changes these days.

Since the last invasion of the Burning Legion, the entire Soul Society has entered a state of complete war preparation.

Rukongai no longer exists. All eighty districts have been integrated into the Seireitei. Or rather, the Seireitei expanded and swallowed up the entire Rukongai.

The demons have conducted years of research on souls and have developed a technology that allows ordinary people in Rukongai to further gain power. By implanting a spiritual crystal into the body of an ordinary wandering soul, they can gain the strength of an ordinary death god.

Although they are far from being powerful, they finally have some combat capabilities. If the demons invade again, these people can become a decent combat force.

Of course, the most important thing is that the number of these people is huge, hundreds or even thousands of times the original group of Shinigami. This means that Soul Society suddenly has thousands of times more Shinigami, so their fighting power naturally soars.

Today, within the Seireitei, the organization of the Thirteen Court Guard Squads has not changed, but the size of the Thirteenth Squad has grown tremendously.

There is still only one captain, but the number of deputy captains has been expanded to three, and the number of officers has also exceeded 100. Even so, each team is still too large to manage.

Fortunately, the captain-general directly ordered the entire Seireitei to enter a state of war, and everyone must accept the strictest management. The atmosphere in Soul Society has become much more serious than before.

However, there is a group of people who are the freest among them, and they are those brought by Zhou Ming.

They now have a special activity area, which is equivalent to the 14th team outside the 13th Gotei Squadron, and the captain is Fugaku. Because he is the father of "Sasuke", everyone else is willing to obey his command.

Of course, the demons are an exception. The demons are not in the Three Realms, and even the captain-general cannot control them, so Fugaku naturally does not have this ability.

The people who were most happy about Zhou Ming's sudden return were his close female friends.

It has been many years since he left, and everyone has been missing him for a long time. There used to be various conflicts between the girls, but now no one mentions these conflicts anymore.

Are you kidding? The real owner finally comes back, who would make him unhappy?
If he really runs away again, what should we do? Should we continue to wait?
Even Soi-Fong, who had the sharpest personality, held back and said nothing this time. She had been pestering him in different ways all day long, and if he didn't make up for what he had lacked over the years, she would not agree to anything.

So within a month after returning to Soul Society, Zhou Ming did almost nothing. He was busy with his own things all day long and didn't even have a chance to leave.

A month later, he met his "parents". In front of Miqin's tearful eyes, Zhou Ming told her about his situation and the situation of the universe.

"You, are you still my Sasuke?"

Mikoto was at a loss.

Fugaku also frowned and said nothing.

"Of course, you can continue to call me Sasuke, and let others call me Zhou Ming. Although I am from the original Earth, I am a member of the Uchiha clan in the ninja world, and you are my parents."

There is no need to express in words the gratitude for raising his child, and Zhou Ming has no intention of disowning this pair of "parents".

As for his original parents, he asked the little King of Hell, but the little King of Hell could not enter the original Earth and had no idea what the situation was there now.

He only knew that the time on the original earth was completely different from the time in the outside world. He didn't know the specific difference, but it was very likely that Zhou Ming had spent a hundred years outside, while only one second had passed on the original earth.

Therefore, Zhou Ming’s parents on Earth are most likely still alive, and he cannot return to the original Earth at present. It is not that he cannot do it, but that he dare not do it.

Because the original earth is the most important and the most fragile. Even though corruption is now conquering cities and territories everywhere, it is still far from eroding the original earth.

Unless the surrounding onion universe is completely eroded and the original earth is completely included, corruption cannot penetrate.

But once Zhou Ming forcibly returns to the original Earth, it is very likely that the outermost layer of defense will be destroyed, leaving a channel for corruption.

If that really happens, it will be really troublesome.

So the current situation is that Zhou Ming must resolve the corruption outside before he can return with peace of mind. He himself is not sure how long this process will take, and Little King of Hell is not sure either.

In short, it has to be quick, the sooner the better. We can't wait until our parents on Earth die before returning. That would be too ridiculous.

"That's fine, that's fine..."

Seeing that Zhou Ming still recognized them, Misaka cried with joy.

Fugaku's expression also looked much better, and he was obviously relieved.

"So... Sasuke, what will you mainly have to deal with next? The Burning Legion? Or the Corruption?"

Fugaku asked.

"It's both. The Burning Legion is an immediate problem, and the Corruption is a long-term problem. In fact, the Burning Legion is not an enemy in theory. Their main opponent is the Void Lord. As far as I know, the Void forces represented by the Void Lord are most likely the existence behind them is Corruption.

It's just that the fallen Titan's behavior was too radical. He hoped to stop the erosion of corruption by destroying worlds one by one. In the end, he might be able to stop the corruption, but the universe would be completely destroyed.

So I will definitely stop him, and the time will not be too far away."

On Azeroth, various races have begun to unite, and Elune will definitely take action. All we have to do is defeat Sargeras in one fell swoop.

He is the absolute core of the Burning Legion. If we eliminate him, those demons of the Burning Legion will no longer be a threat.

And demons are not truly immortal, they can just be resurrected in the twisting void.

As long as the coalition forces enter the twisting void and kill the demons in their lairs, they will never be resurrected and will be swallowed up by the hell at the bottom of the universe.

"Just tell me if you need me and your mother. Although we are not strong, we are not weak either. We can help in many cases."

Fugaku said in a deep voice.

Be it him or Mikoto, their current strength is far beyond what it used to be.

After all, both of their bodies have been modified, and they also possess the Mangekyō Sharingan and Devil Fruits. In the ninja world, they are definitely T0 players.

Mr. Fugaku has made greater progress than Ms. Mikoto. His Soul-Soul Fruit has actually awakened. After the awakening, the Soul-Soul Fruit no longer needs to extract the souls of others to exert its power, but can directly create souls out of thin air.

To put it simply, Fugaku can now directly grab a handful of air, make it into a soul, and then put it into various objects, making the objects active and turning them from dead objects into objects that can obey commands.

This move is even more powerful than that of the old lady.

Zhou Ming hasn't understood the specific situation in depth yet, that can be discussed later. Now he only needs to know that Fugaku and Mikoto have made great progress.

After chatting with the two for a day, Zhou Ming finally met the demons again.

These demon gods have been quite happy staying in Soul Society over the years, studying demons and death gods all day long. Although they have been away from the Toaru Majutsu no Index world for quite some time, they have absolutely no intention of going back, and seem to be reluctant to leave.
