Uchiha's Blade

Chapter 49 Chapter 49

In the end, Mana did not go to bed in a miserable state.

She was already preparing to go on a field trip to investigate the park's environment and where it was better to sleep, but then a group of people who looked like bad guys approached her.

It is said that he is a member of the Crimson King's clan.

The clan of the Red King Zhou Fangzun, Barbaro, owns a bar as a stronghold.

So Mana also mixed in a meal.

Kusanagi Izumo, the core member of Barbaro who was wiping cups at the bar, looked helpless: "I will only tolerate you eating fried rice at my bar this time."

Mana gave him a thumbs up: "It's super delicious!"

Kusanagi: "..."

Do you realize what I'm saying?

Probably because there was an equally small girl in Barbara, Kusanagi felt that he was particularly helpless with the little girl. He sighed and asked her: "Would you like to make you a drink?"

"want!"

After Akatsuki filled his stomach, Mana asked: "Is there anything you came to see me for?"

Kusanagi said: "I just want to get in touch with you and confirm your attitude. After all, you are the Colorless King as the 'ghost card' among the seven kings."

The other six kings check and balance each other, so the power of the Colorless King is particularly important.

Moreover, Zhou Fangzun is not in good condition now. Kusanagi is not sure what kind of answer Scepter4 will give in the end. They tolerate Scepter4 to imprison Zhou Fangzun at this time, just because of Zhou Fangzun's own will.

But if Scepter4 makes any excessive demands in the future, such as lifelong rape or killing Zhou Fangzun, as the Red King's clan, they will never tolerate their king being treated like this.

But there is another problem.

If they want to force the Qingwang clan to make concessions, it is not enough to rely on just one Barbarian. They must have more chips.

Then it would be natural to want to get in touch with the new Colorless King.

Even if she is a child, as long as she is the colorless king, no one can underestimate her attitude.

And this generation of Colorless King seems to be something special.

Izumo Kusanagi already knew about the fact that the Dresden Stone Slate actively rejected the previous generation Colorless King Fox Face and then quickly identified a new candidate.

Zhou Fangzun does not seem to be a particularly delicate person, but he will not hide this kind of critical information from Kusanagi, not to mention that even if Zhou Fangzun is not so delicate, he is still sharp enough.

Kusanagi Izumo's words made Mana laugh. She held the cup in both hands and asked, "Did you know that I just came from the King of Gold?"

Kusanagi said: "We already know this, but you ask...did anything interesting happen?"

"It's nothing, it's just that I made an agreement with the King of Gold," she said softly, "I won't do anything casually in the future, and he will pay me my salary."

Kusanagi: "...The king's salary?"

Mana said confidently: "Of course, I don't have a big house like you all, I'm already prepared to sleep on the roadside tonight!"

Kusanagi laughed dryly: "Well, after all, he is also the colorless king, so he can't be so miserable."

But... just after becoming the king, he was able to negotiate terms with the King of Gold, and actually got it done. This is not something that an ordinary little girl can do.

For this reason, Kusanagi tentatively said: "If you are really homeless, do you want to stay with us for one night? Let someone help you find a new house tomorrow. Since you want money from the King of Gold, this It should be no problem, right?"

Mana is not particular about this kind of thing at all: "Okay!"

But if she wanted money, she probably needed to visit that restaurant.

...I have to ask if I can advance some money in advance.

She is really penniless now.

Mana said to Kusanagi Izumo with special gratitude: "Thank you so much! If I have a place to live, I don't want to sleep on the roadside."

Kusanagi said: "In fact, there is no need to thank us. No matter what the reason is, it is because of you that the previous colorless king lost his qualifications as a king when he was killed by Zun."

If Zhou Fangzun had killed a real king, he would never have survived.

Even if he is not killed by Munakata Reiji, he will drop his sword and die at the cost of killing the king.

From this perspective, Mana saved Zhou Fangzun's life.

So Mana stayed in Barbara for one night, and also had breakfast for the next day.

Speaking of which, Barbara's food is quite delicious.

Kusanagi Izumo laughed when Mana praised her like this: "It seems that Yata's craftsmanship is very popular with Mana-san."

Mana turned to look at Misaki Yata on the other side: "Hey, did Mr. Yata do it?"

It is said that Misaki Yata is the captain of the Barbarian Commando, and Mana does have some impressions of him. He seems to be a very fierce fighter.

Yata stammered: "Hey, this...what is there to say about this!"

Izumo Kusanagi kindly let go of the little commando captain who was not good at handling such praise, and then said to Mana: "Miss Mana will probably eat better food in the future. That restaurant is said to be world-class. Oh, a place where only the best chefs in the world can live.”

Speaking of his money jar, Zhenna suddenly became interested: "You know? Please tell me more."

She just randomly chose this restaurant before. From the beginning, Mana's eyes were only on industrial enterprises. It made no difference to her whether it was a restaurant or a hotel, or something else.

The result seems to be a good choice?

Kusanagi Izumo said: "After all, Totsuki Academy is really famous. Well, anyway, Miss Mana wants to go there today to have a look, right? You'll find out when you go."

Mana nodded.

Kusanagi Izumo added: "If you want to go out, wouldn't it be better to change into some clothes?"

The Uchiha uniform that Mana wears really doesn't fit the style of everyday clothing in this world. It's a strange outfit that will definitely attract people's attention when she goes out, not to mention that she also carries a knife with her.

Unfortunately, for Kusanagi Izumo's kind reminder, Mana had nothing to do except thank him: "As for clothes... apart from this, I also have several sets of green jounin vests, but I always feel that that one looks weirder than the clan uniform. Woolen cloth."

The uniforms of the Demon Slayer Corps are not something you can wear casually when going out. With such a big word "DE" on the back, they will probably be regarded as some kind of bad person.

In the end, it was Kushina Anna, the little princess of Barbara, who lent the clothes to Mana.

There is not much difference in height between the two of them. Mana is a few centimeters taller than Anna. Generally speaking, she can still wear Anna's clothes.

Anna didn't talk much, but when she saw that Mana was a little helpless about the dress, she took the initiative to help her and combed Mana's hair.

Then asked: "Mana, do you want to wear a hat?"

The little hat, which is styled in the same style as the gothic skirt, is probably only for decoration.

Zhenna thought for a while: "No, my hair... is not suitable for wearing hats in this life."

Anna looked at the hair on her head that persisted in blowing up no matter how hard she tried, and reached out to touch her: "This is also good."

Zhenna took a deep breath and stood up stiffly: "To be honest, this is the first time in my life that I have worn this kind of skirt. It's really not easy for you girls here."

Ninja clothes have always been designed to facilitate movement. As for aesthetics, that is the last thing that needs to be considered.

After changing clothes, Mana and Kushina Anna stood together. Two girls of similar height, one with black hair and one with white hair, looked like a pair of shadows.

Before going out, Mana gestured around with his ninja sword. Finally, he found that wearing a gothic dress was not suitable for carrying a sword, so he had to put his sword into the magatama seal.

This skill of hers surprised the Barbarians again: "Is this your ability?"

Each generation of Colorless King has different abilities, so everyone is particularly curious about what the abilities of this generation of Colorless King are.

"It's the sealing technique," Mana explained: "If you ask if this is my ability as a king, of course not. I am also curious about what my ability is as a king."

If other kings have special abilities, then they will be gone with her, right?

But Mana really didn't realize there was anything special about herself for a while.

Putting aside the matter of ability for the moment, Mana went out to look at her money jar.

To Mana's expectation, as soon as she arrived at the restaurant according to the address, she saw the rabbit waiting for her in the restaurant.

It's not the same rabbit as yesterday.

But as the envoy of the King of Gold, Rabbit would not go out in front of people at will.

Sure enough, as soon as Mana appeared, Rabbit came over with a few people: "I was in a hurry yesterday, and I didn't remember to finish some procedures. The emperor has asked us to prepare the materials quickly. Please sign it."

Mana took several documents handed over by Rabbit and signed his name without looking at them.

Rabbit did not have any doubts about this. After collecting the documents, he handed Mana a bag: "This is your identity material. Since you are already the king, you always need to have a legitimate identity."

This was not done by Guochang Lu Dajue, but by Zongxiang Lisi.

However, because of Mana's performance, Kunijōji Daikaku later specifically asked Scepter4, so Munakata Reiji simply left the identity matter to Kunijōji Daikaku to make the decision.

Zhenna opened the bag and looked through the pile of documents inside. She couldn't help but raise her eyebrows: "You are quite thoughtful."

"You've thanked me, so I'll take my leave."

Zhenna waved to him: "Goodbye, please help me tell the King of Gold that I have received his goodwill and that I will abide by the agreement."

Mana had not taken the initiative to raise the issue of identity before, but allowed Kunjōji Daekaku to take action. This may not be a test, testing the attitude of Kunjōji Daekaku.

Of course, on the other hand, this is also an expression of goodwill to Kunochanglu Dajue. Now that Kunochanglu Dajue has responded to her same kindness, of course Mana will accept it well.

At least at this moment, Mana and Kunijoji Daikaku have reached a tacit understanding, and the threatening conversation that took place in the Gozhu Tower before has never happened.

After Rabbit left, Mana, a little girl in her teens, received extremely high courtesy from everyone in the restaurant. No one looked down upon her because she looked young.

This is not surprising to Mana.

The restaurant is controlled by the King of Gold, and the clan of the King of Gold also appears here without hesitation, so it is impossible for them not to know what it means to be a king.

In fact, just as Mana thought, after Rabbit left, the person in charge of the restaurant said that a distinguished guest had been waiting for a long time.

Mana raised an eyebrow: "People from Totsuki?"

"Yes," the person in charge glanced at Mana in surprise, not expecting her to be so perceptive: "It's the commander-in-chief of Totsuki Academy, Nakiri Senzaemon, known as the Demon King of Food."

Although Mana didn't know what the so-called Food Demon King was, she could feel from the other person's tone that it was a title that held great weight in some aspects.

When Mana walked into the office with the person in charge and saw Nakiri Senzaemon, she confirmed her previous judgment in her heart.

In terms of strength, Mana can tell that the opponent is extremely weak and she can solve it with one strike. However, the opponent has the aura of a strong man. This is only possible by unremitting pursuit in the field he loves and reaching the peak. Create a strong aura.

In comparison, the blond girl next to Nakiri Senzaemon is not impressive enough. Although she has an overwhelming aura, in the eyes of people like Mana, it is just superficial. Compared with Nakiri Senzaemon, It's not the same thing to be as powerful as Emon, who has truly experienced countless trials and hardships.

"This is the first time we meet. I am Uchiha Mana. I think the members of the Golden King's clan have already told you about what happened between us."

Nakiri Senzaemon said: "Yes, although it is a bit unexpected that the new Colorless King will be a child, I think since you are the king, you should also be outstanding, so I am not interested in replacing the candidate. I don’t have any doubts. I just feel that as collaborators, we should meet each other. If we can’t reach mutual understanding, it will be very troublesome for us to cooperate in the future.”

Zhenna raised her hand: "Please sit down and talk."

After the people on both sides took their seats, Nakiri Senzaemon introduced: "I am the commander-in-chief of Totsuki Academy, Nakiri Senzaemon. This is my granddaughter, Nakiri Erina."

Mana nodded slightly to Nakiri Erina: "Hello."

Her attitude was too casual, and even if it couldn't be called contemptuous, it was definitely not the kind of respect that Nakiri Erina often saw.

This was obviously a very unpleasant thing for the eldest lady, but Erina Nakiri at least remembered what her grandfather had said before coming, so she had to endure it.

Mana said to Nakiri Sen: "I don't have much experience in restaurant management, so in the short term, I'll do it the same way as before. By the way... let's change the name of the restaurant."

Nakiri Senzaemon said: "Are you dissatisfied with your current name?"

"No," Zhenna frowned: "I just don't like that long string of letters. I don't even know which country's language it is."

Nakiri Senzaemon didn't express anything about this, but a trace of disdain flashed in Nakiri Erina's eyes: "That's French."

"Thank you for letting me know. I don't understand French, so since this is my place, I have the right to change my name, right?"

Nakiri Senzaemon stretched out his hand to stop Nakiri Erina who was about to speak, and said: "As the owner of the restaurant, of course you have the right to change the name. I wonder what name you want to change to?"

Mana thought for a moment: "Call it Wisteria Restaurant."

Although Konoha seemed to be more in line with her wishes, it was the name given to the village by Madara-sama, and using it on the restaurant always felt like it was disappointing Madara-sama.

But a simple name like Wisteria Restaurant that is no different from the affordable family restaurant on the roadside is obviously not acceptable to Erina Nakiri: "The previous name has been used for many years and has been accepted by many old customers. Now it is suddenly necessary to change the name. It’s already ridiculous, and the name is still the same as a low-end restaurant. It’s impossible to run it well like this!”

Nakiri Senzaemon said: "My granddaughter is a bit impatient, please forgive me, but I also feel that it is inappropriate to change her name in a hurry."

"I know," Zana said: "Of course I know this problem, but so what? Isn't it something you should consider to be responsible for running a good restaurant?"

Meeting Nakiri Senzaemon's gaze, Mana smiled cutely: "If the management is not good, is it a problem with your ability? Miss Nakiri seems to be very angry. You must love her very much."

This sentence is not a compliment.

Of course Nakiri Erina heard this: "You guy - you actually talked to grandpa like this, have you figured out the situation?"

Mana glanced at her: "I think it's Miss Nakiri who didn't understand the situation. In that case, I might as well speak more clearly. Do you think I don't know why you accepted the change of partner so easily? Is it a matter of human beings? You are well aware of the power of the king, and you also want to establish a relationship with the king. That will at least to a certain extent allow you to have unimpeded access to the political and business circles of this country. The King of Gold is certainly The one who is currently at the top of the throne, but also for this reason, for the King of Gold who has a big tree and deep roots, your existence is nothing more than dispensable. Just like now, just pass this restaurant to others. It’s not a troublesome matter, it’s not even worth talking about in person. He just needs to send one of his men to inform you. It’s a notification, not a discussion.”

Seeing the anger in Erina Nakiri's eyes, Mana didn't intend to stop speaking: "Commander Nakiri clearly understood his position, so I became his new target. As the new king, And at such a young age, I am not as well-established as the Golden King. Therefore, if we reach a cooperation, you will definitely become a very important force to me and a collaborator that needs to be taken seriously. Therefore, Commander Nakiri is very interested. I happily gave up the King of Gold and turned to seek cooperation with me, but what benefit does this matter have to me? A little monetary reward? Come on, you should be very clear about the value of the King of Power. Since you want to To become an important collaborator, you naturally have to show the ability that is most important to me. Now it is just a small test like changing your name. Ms. Nakiri reacted like this. She doesn’t feel that she is too Have you ever been too ignorant?"

"you--"

Nakiri Erina stared at her, unable to refute.

Nakiri Senzaemon laughed out loud: "Ms. Mana, you are really amazing. I have been completely seen through. Thank you very much for helping me teach Erina. I do love her too much."

Nakiri Erina was a little embarrassed: "Grandpa!"

Mana laughed: "This is not only a test for Miss Nakiri, but also a test for me. You are testing my ability as a collaborator. If I am really just an incompetent little girl, I am afraid you will not sincerely cooperate with me." I'll cooperate and just fool around a bit."

Nakiri Senzaemon said: "Ms. Mana is indeed far beyond my expectations."

Zhenna said: "Then let's get to know each other. As a collaborator, it seems that I don't need to say more about my information. What you really value is just the identity of the Colorless King."

Nakiri Senzaemon did not deny this for the sake of face, and then he gave Mana a general introduction to the strength of Totsuki Academy.

Totsuki Academy is a truly famous academy in the culinary world. It has an unshakable supreme status. Even if you look around the world, it is the top culinary training structure. It has a very high status in the culinary world. At the same time, it operates various restaurants. Hotels, resorts and other facilities have also accumulated a lot of wealth.

In other words, the only valuable thing that Totsuki Academy can give to Mana is their financial resources.

In this country that is actually controlled by the king, even the government is just a puppet under the control of the Golden King, not to mention Totsuki Academy's status in the political world is really limited.

As for business, just in terms of money, it can indeed be regarded as having a high influence in the business world, but people with a clear mind will understand that profit does not represent everything, and what is really important is irreplaceable value.

In this country, we can still live without Yuanyue and Yuanyue's industries, but if there are no petroleum, chemical, machinery and other industries, the order of the entire country and the lives of the people will inevitably face collapse.

Mana finally concluded: "...So your only value is money."

Even Nakiri Senzaemon was a little embarrassed by this answer, but it was also a fact that he had to admit: "It is true."

If Nakiri Senzaemon just wanted to be an ordinary rich old man, then he would have been very successful at this point, too successful, but this is not the case.

Over the years, Nakiri Senzaemon has always been worried about Nakiri Erina and wary of a certain person. If he just looked for a solution within the scope of the cooking world, Nakiri Senzaemon found that he could Not much to do.

Then he would have no choice but to seek strength outside the cooking world.

In this country, what is more reliable than the power of the king?

Zhenna looked at him: "What a coincidence. All I have is that I am strong enough."

Uchiha is always extremely confident in his own power.

She said to Nakiri Senzaemon with a smile: "Although you didn't say it clearly, I feel that you are wary of someone. If it is a threat...it doesn't matter, I will deal with him properly."

Proper solution at the physical level.

Nakiri Senzaemon sighed in his heart: "Then, I'll leave it to you. We will follow you with all our strength."

So Mana completed the transformation from penniless to suddenly rich on the second day after coming into this world.

The next thing is extremely simple. All problems that can be solved with money in the secular world can be solved by Nakiri Senzaemon.

For example, Mana needs a place to live, and... a school.

"Yes, that's right. I want to go to school. I want to learn the knowledge of this world and understand the education system of this world. The education system is a very important part, right?"

Within two days, Nakiri Senzaemon sent Mana the ownership of an apartment building.

It fully meets Mana's requirements.

It's not in the city center, but it's very close to it, with convenient transportation. There are all schools from elementary school to high school nearby. The school doesn't need to be too good or too bad, but it's the kind of school that most ordinary people would go to.

Mana looked at the apartment information: "Although it is not in the city center, the nearby buses and subways are very convenient. It is close to Sumire Avenue Commercial Street, so there will be no obstacles in daily life. In addition, as for the school..."

Tedan Elementary School, Youth Academy, Sarayashiki Middle School, PK Academy...

"It's very good. It's really complete from elementary school to high school!"

Then the problem is coming...

"Should I go to elementary school or middle school?"

She has never been to school before!

stupid.
