4 Chapter 4: Talk

"What question do you want to ask me, Hashirama?"

"What kind of kingdom do you want to build?" Hashirama asked while sitting beside Ars.

Ars' face showed a small smile as he used his hands to support his back leaning body, "I have a very big ambition, Hashirama. However, that ambition was not the ambition to build an empire that could conquer the entire world. Because something like that is very complicated to do. Even with the help of my friends, I was able to do it. However, I still don't want it."

Ars paused for a moment and continued, "The kingdom that I want to build is a kingdom where every citizen living in the kingdom can enjoy a safe and peaceful life. You also know that this world itself is more terrible than your previous world. At least, even if I can't give everyone a decent life in this world. I can give a decent life to the few citizens who live in my kingdom. I will make them proud to be citizens of my kingdom, I will make them happy to be citizens of my kingdom, and I will make them happy to be citizens of my kingdom."

"Your ambitions are indeed very big and will probably be quite difficult to carry out, Ars. Especially with the existence of the World Government"

"Even though it is. However, if I'm with you. My ambition will surely come true. You are my friends, you are my confidants. Although I have the ability to plan things, however, I also have weaknesses. The shortcomings that I have are what you will complete. We will work together to build an empire where every citizen who lives in it is full of pride for being a citizen of our kingdom."

"Of course" Hashirama showed an enthusiastic smile, "We will definitely be able to do that"

"Oh yes. Ars. Can you help me explain the Haki abilities? I only got an introduction to this ability."

"Haki is an ability possessed by every creature in this world. Haki is divided into three namely Conqueror Haki, Armament Haki and Observation Haki. Conqueror's Haki is a very different type of Haki from the other two types of Haki. Because this Haki cannot be obtained through rigorous training. This Haki is innate from birth. Many say that whoever possesses this Haki has the potential to become a king. Conqueror's Haki itself is divided into two levels. The first tier is the basic level where the user can intimidate his opponent even if your Conqueror's Haki is strong enough. You can impact inanimate objects simply by releasing the energy of this Conqueror's Haki. The second level is an advanced level where the user can cover the ability possessed by the user of Conqueror Haki to attack the opponent. At the moment the attack ability is enveloped by this Haki ability. The attack ability will increase several times stronger than before. In this world, there are many people possessing Conqueror's Haki. However, only a few people can develop Conqueror's Haki to an advanced level. Right now what I know of the people who are alive and able to use the advanced abilities of Conqueror Haki are Edward Newgate, Charlotte Linlin, Kaidou, and Shanks."

"Oh? The four of them? Aren't they the ones holding the current Sea Emperor title?"

"Yes. There they are" Ars nodded, "Next is Observation Haki. Observation Haki is an ability similar to your senjutsu abilities. However, these two abilities have differences. Haki abilities can only give you better sensory abilities in sensing presence, knowing location, as well as various other sensing abilities. As for your senjutsu abilities, besides being able to provide sensing abilities. You are also blessed with additional strong physical strength. Observation Haki has two levels as well as Conqueror Haki. The first level of this ability is where the user of this ability can sense threats, know something even though it can't be seen by the eye, feel the level of strength possessed by a person, and can see the trajectory of the attack given by the opponent to the user of this ability. While the advanced level of this Haki will allow the user to gain one of the abilities that is being able to see the future, read other people's hearts, listen to the voices of everything in the world, feel the emotions that someone has, and also there is still a lot of development of abilities. this and that all depends on the abilities that can be obtained by this Haki user. Currently only a few people can develop the ability of Observation Haki at an advanced level. However, unlike Conqueror Haki, only a few people master it. There are many people in this world who have developed Observation Haki to an advanced level."

"This ability is quite terrifying" Hashirama frowned, "Especially the ability to read a person's heart. This ability is the ability that I least want to acquire."

"If it's an ability you don't want to have, which ability do you want to acquire, Hashirama? You currently have senjutsu and one of the branches of this ability is being able to sense other people's emotions. We can exclude this ability and you can choose another ability."

"Choice, huh? If asked, I might choose to have the ability to see into the future. This ability is very good and will help me in battle."

"That is indeed a very helpful ability especially for you. You will later hold the position of Head of the Intelligence Department and this ability is very good if you have it. Especially, you will also later step down in battle if needed at any time."

"Head of the Intelligence Department, eh? Good job title." Hashirama nodded and continued, "What about my little brother? He has good ability, smart brain. I think, you can consider recruiting him to join us. The Intelligence Department must really need it."

"Tobirama is indeed on the list of plans to be summoned to this world. However, I can only do it gradually since the price to summon Tobirama is quite expensive" Ars paused and continued. "I will also later summon your granddaughter Tsunade to be summoned to this world"

"Tsuna, too?" Hashirama's eyes filled with excitement upon hearing this.

"Of course. Tsunada has excellent healing skills. I will later manage him as Deputy Head of the Ministry of Health"

"Deputy head? Why not the head? Is his ability not enough?" Hashirama asked while raising his brow in confusion.

"Tsunade's healing abilities are arguably one of the best. However, there are still people better than him who will be called by me later. In addition, the combat power of the person who will later serve as the Head of the Health Department is stronger than Tsunade. At the very least, that person's combat power is almost on par with yours."

"Oh? Almost equal? Is she from my world?"

"No" Ars shook his head, "She is from the Shinigami World. Your world was previously known as Ninja World.

"Shinigami World?!" Hashirama's face looked surprised to hear this.

"Why are you surprised to hear the word Shinigami, Hashirama? Do you think Shinigami are people who only have scary bodies?" Ars asked in a funny tone.

"Eh, well, just say so" Hashirama nodded, "Are their appearances really that scary?"

Ars chuckled, "The Shinigami's appearance isn't what you expected. They have the same appearance as us. What you thought before was just an image of the Shinigami in your world. While in another world, Shinigami have different forms. That also applies to your profession ninja. The ninja profession in your world and in other worlds is also different."

Ars paused for a moment and continued, "Speaking of Shinigami. Shinigami have the same power as you. They also have a kind of energy that can increase their strength. The energy they use is Reiatshu"

"Reiatsu?"

"Reiatshu can be said to be spiritual energy. With this energy, Shinigami can increase the strength of their bodies, increase their speed, have an ability called weapon release, and can even fly and stand in the air."

"Wait a minute" Hashirama said with an excited face, "You said that Reiatshu is spiritual energy, right? Wouldn't it be if I could perfectly control my spiritual energy. Can I have the ability to fly too?"

"It's possible that it can be done" Ars nodded, "However, provided you can fully control your spiritual energy just as Shinigami can control their spiritual energy perfectly which causes them to have an armor around their body that always protects them. they are at all times what in this world is called Armament Haki"

Hashirama's eyes were now filled with excitement, even now he was starting to plan to practice to control his spiritual energy to perfect control.

"Back to the previous topic of conversation"

Hashirama returned to his current thoughts and began to listen to Ars' explanation regarding Haki abilities.

"The final Haki is Armament Haki. This Haki as you know can make the user have an armor that can be used to attack or defend. Unlike the other two Haki, Armament Haki has 3 levels. The first level is the basic level where one mobilizes the spiritual energy they have to create an armor that can be used to defend and attack. The second level is the advanced level where one can use Armament Haki abilities to attack the internal organs of the opponent's body. By mobilizing spiritual energy to attack the internal organs. Once one has mastered a level, even if one encounters an opponent who has extremely hard skin and Armament Haki. The possessor of this ability can destroy his opponent easily because the target of his attack is no longer the flesh but the inside of the opponent's body."

Hashirama's face continued to show seriousness regarding this. Because he knew how terrifying Armament Haki techniques would be if they reached the advanced level.

"While at the highest level is the way of applying freely as used by Shinigami. Once one has reached that level, they can easily mobilize their spiritual energy freely and even use it to fly and so on. In this world, not many people know about advanced Armament Haki abilities. Few people know. However, to the highest degree, no one knew about this because until recently. No one has been able to control their spiritual energy freely yet. This was because many people who had reached the advanced level of Armament Haki thought that the advanced level of Armament Haki was the last level one could reach in learning Haki. While they don't know that there is still a next level of this Haki"

"It can be said that only our kingdom knows about this, right?" Hashirama asked with a smile.

"Just say so. We have the advantage over this" Ars nodded and immediately stood up from his spot,

"It seems your clone has already completed almost all the tasks assigned by me. Let's go to the territory of the royal palace. We will build a house that we will use for a while before we can build the royal palace where we will live."

Hashirama nodded.

The two of them immediately walked leisurely towards the royal palace area using an electronic map that helped them get there. During the trip, Ars taught Hashirama a lot about the development plans that had been drawn up by him along with anyone who would later be summoned by Ars along with the powers they had.
