Thanks to the pervasive spread of the projection hell butterfly, combined with the performance roles contributed by the Kumogakure, the prestige value on Chihiro's System Panel skyrocketed!
It quickly reached the 600,000 mark!
However, after reaching 600,000, the rate of increase in prestige value slowed down.
Although it was still rising, it was clearly not as frantic as it was at the beginning.
Chihiro's heart calmed down.
Staring at the 600,000 prestige value, he took a deep breath, preparing to spend a wave immediately.
The matter in the Land of Lightning must be wrapped up.
Furthermore, the power of the Hollow has already aroused the wariness of the Ninja World.
It is time to add another wave of Hollow forces.
By the way, during the Three Kage Summit, I will give them a little Espada shock.
And farm another wave of prestige value!
"Hmm... Let's recruit one for 500,000 prestige value first."
"System, change the card pool to the Hueco Mundo faction, consume 500,000 prestige value, and recruit a Heroic Troop Types!"
"Ding! Congratulations to the host, you have successfully recruited the Heroic Troop Types Ulquiorra Cifer!"
Ulquiorra!
Chihiro's body jolted.
This name is too famous!
It is simply synonymous with being cool and strong!
The moment the System prompt faded, a Cero opened in front of Chihiro.
A young man with short, choppy black hair, pale skin, green eyes, black lips, a cold and handsome face, and a slightly slender build came into view.
His features were three-dimensional and his contours were sharp.
On his face were dark green Arrancar markings resembling tear stains.
The "4" tattoo representing the Fourth Espada was engraved on his left chest, and his Hollow mask was located on the left half of his head, shaped like a horned helmet.
He wore a white, black-bottomed, high-collared long-sleeved jacket with black trim, which could be opened with a zipper.
Below, he wore white kimono pants, tied with a wide black sash, with his Zanpakuto tucked into the sash, and black socks with white shoes on his feet.
Ulquiorra's expression was cold; even upon seeing Chihiro, there was no emotional change on his face.
This had to do with his personality.
Ulquiorra's personality was calm and cold, with rare changes in expression.
Even in the original Shinigami work, he only showed obvious emotional fluctuations once.
His actions were very focused on rationality, and he showed no mercy to enemies that had to be eliminated.
However, he hated indiscriminate killing and did not like cannibalism among his own kind.
Yet, he was very loyal; in the original work, he was deeply trusted by Aizen.
With a cold expression, Ulquiorra knelt on one knee before Chihiro to express his loyalty.
"Fourth Espada Ulquiorra Cifer, greetings, King."
Chihiro nodded with satisfaction.
500,000 to recruit Ulquiorra—he was very satisfied with this result.
Moreover, Ulquiorra's abilities were not only powerful but also very cool, capable of bringing a little shock to the Ninja World.
Next, he just needed to quietly wait for the movements of the Ninja World.
He would wait for the Three Kage Summit for Ulquiorra to make his first appearance on the grand stage of the Ninja World.
In the next few days, the Uzushigakure took a good rest.
Some streets of the Soul Society Court that were destroyed by their own people also needed to be rebuilt.
During the battle with the invaders, some ordinary members were injured and needed to go to the Fourth Division for treatment.
The mission to purify Hollows did not stop either.
This mission could not only repeatedly farm prestige value but also help discover the experiences of the Soul Society Court.
After all, he couldn't just keep picking on the Land of Water.
Nowadays, the Land of Water was also unable to make ends meet, and its economy had declined significantly compared to before it was ruled by the Uzushigakure.
Coupled with the harassment of Hollows, the people in the country were living in misery, and it was difficult to generate any economy.
At this time, the Land of Water had fallen into a vicious cycle.
If this continued, the Land of Water would likely perish on its own without needing malicious manipulation from the Uzushigakure.
Chihiro was not prepared to let the Land of Water perish just like that.
After all, it was a stable dungeon for farming prestige value.
Once it perished, he would lose a stable source of prestige value.
Even in the future, when the Uzushigakure ruled the Ninja World, Chihiro did not plan to turn everyone into a Shinigami.
Otherwise, in the vast Naruto world, if he couldn't farm any prestige value, wouldn't it be all for nothing?
Chihiro would not do something as shortsighted as draining the pond to catch the fish.
He wanted to make the Ninja World a place that provided him with a stable supply of prestige value.
This way, even if the Ōtsutsuki Clan attacked, Chihiro would have the prestige value to recruit stronger Troop Types.
"By the way, System, is the Heroic Troop Types the upper limit for recruitment?"
"Ding! Please explore on your own, host!"
Although the System did not answer, not answering was actually a kind of answer.
It was highly likely that there were other Ranks of Troop Types above the Heroic Troop Types.
However, for now, the Heroic Troop Types were enough for the Ninja World.
Back to the matter of the Land of Water.
Chihiro was prepared to give the people of the Land of Water some hope.
Only when the people have hope can there be productivity!
However, if the people want to have hope, they must have faith, and the country must have power!
Chihiro intended to make the Shinigami the faith of the Land of Water.
It just so happened that the Shinigami would go to the Land of Water from time to time to wipe out a batch of ordinary Hollows, farming some prestige value.
At the same time, it also left an impression on the people of the Land of Water, which could serve as the Foundation of faith.
However, there had always been a force in the Land of Water propagating the narrative that the Uzushigakure were invaders.
This resulted in the people's faith in the Shinigami not being firm.
Previously, the Uzushigakure felt it was unnecessary and didn't want to bother with it.
But now, these people had a use.
They were perfect for cultivating the candidate he would use to establish faith.
And he had already thought of this candidate.
It was Mei Terumī!
Being a native of the Land of Water was her greatest advantage.
Moreover, Mei Terumī's dream was also to drive the Hollows out of the Land of Water, so Chihiro would give her this opportunity.
Anyway, Mei Terumī had already been transformed into a Shinigami by him; she was his person for life.
There was no need to worry about her loyalty.
Moreover, in the original work, she was the future Fifth Mizukage.
Letting her manage the Land of Water was just right.
However, this matter had to wait until Mei Terumī learned Shikai before it could be implemented.
After all, Mei Terumī had not been here for long; let her Cultivate for a while longer.
