Chapter 83 - Chapter 85

Name:A New Path Author:Vallori
There was an area of the world that had been devoid of life for a very long time. And since the world was plagued by continues war this area was never arranged to be explored.

Out at sea, this area existed as its own independent island. It had no human or animal presence and it didn't have any valuable plant life. It was a dead land and no one wanted it because no one could afford to deal with it when war was always at your doorstep.

It was on this land that Rize and the Undertaker, also known as Sebastien had started construction on the empire.

Dragon made sure to place a branch of the empire in every world he had visited and would visit in the future. And each branch was run by an overseer that handled all the affairs in that world.

The overseer of the elemental nations branch was Danzo. A newly reformed Danzo at least. The plan had been to kill him but Sebastien looked into Danzo and his history and he found him quite fitting to lead. The only problem was the personality he had before his rebirth.

So Sebastien and Rize had taken it upon themselves to change Danzo's personality. And he was now completely changed. He had been reborn into a soldier for the empires use. And Undertaker was proud of his creation.

Even though Dragon strongly reprimanded him at first. He soon came around and decided to let them continue to use him for the empire. But he made sure those two would also come to him first when they found someone new and interesting to experiment on.

This former dead island was under heavy construction at the moment. Rize was mainly responsible for the construction of the city portion itself so she had been very busy these years.

But luckily for everyone she loved and respected Dragon deeply so she loved working for him. That meant that the constructions went underway nicely.

The city was a sort of modernized version of the hidden leaf village. Dragon didn't want to bring in futuristic knowledge to the world so he only made sure that the city itself looked nicer.

So it was basically the hidden leaf village but the materials used for the construction were better. So you could see houses made of all glass. There were no more simple wooden constructions, mostly steel only.

So, all in all, it was a simple modification to the leaf village. The placement was similar to the leaf village. And Dragon's office was placed in the centre of the city.

Dragon was in his office here in his empire's new city.

You could say that the world was already inside Dragon's palm. The only reason he didn't attack the other villages was that it could lead to an even worse future.

That's why he arranged a meeting with all the Kage's here. And if he could get them to see reason, then great. But if he couldn't, then he would have no choice than to show them that they don't really have a choice.

"My master, all the Kage's have been informed about the meeting and they have all left their respective villages with an escort."

"How's the new Kage of the mist doing? Is she any good?" Dragon stood and looked out his window with his back turned against Alucard.

"She is eager to show her worth, but she is a little too impatient. It could lead her down a dangerous path." Alucard had only met with the Kage's for a short time but he had made his evaluation around their personalities already.

"Which of them will push back when I present them with my offer?"

"Most likely only Onoki would do so at the meeting itself. The others except for the Hokage would most likely return to the safety of their village before saying or taking action against you."

"Then it is as I predicted. Let us hope that this goes well."

Night had fallen on the empire and the single ship was approaching the shore. You could tell that the ship didn't intend to be seen because all the lights were out. This was meant as a stealthy approach and so far they had succeeded.

The ship successfully docked on land. And the people on board jumped over the railing and landed on the ground.

"Lord Mizukage, this should be it." A young man with short blue hair said to the Kage of the mist.

"Thank you, Chojuro. Now, do we know the location of the village itself?" She looked at her bodyguard.

"No, you don't. That's why I am here." A voice came from behind them. And in this darkness, it took a second or two to make out who it was that said that.

"A tiger?" Chojuro tilted his head in utter confusion at the talking animal.

"My name is Atlas. And please follow me as I will take you to your destination." Atlas started walking away into the darkness.

"This night keeps getting weirder and weirder." The Mizukage said and smiled to her bodyguard, and they both followed Atlas closely.
