Chapter 1384: The Resurrection of Atlantis, Arrogance of Civilization

Namikaze Minato shook his head, if he was not the Hokage, he could firmly and selfishly choose Kushina and Naruto, but he was the Hokage, and he needed to consider not only Kushina and Naruto, but also the villagers of Konoha.

If he chose to abandon them and run away with Kushina and Naruto when facing danger, even Kushina and Naruto would look down on him.

Fortunately, after joining the chat group, he no longer has to make such a choice; even if he really encounters an enemy that he cannot solve, there are group members to help him solve it.

And with the highest level of combat power currently displayed in the Naruto world, it is not an unsolvable enemy for everyone in the chat group.

This is the luckiest thing for him.

As for Fugaku, if it weren't for Loki and Marquis Vauban now, he might not have noticed that Fugaku's education of Itachi had reached such an extreme level.

Now think about it, many things have already been revealed.

At that time, Uchiha Fugaku had no worries about Itachi, who was in the aftermath of the disaster and was almost hit by a house. He just said calmly, "I knew you would be fine."

Although this was recognition and trust of Itachi, Itachi was only five years old at that time. No matter how talented he was, he still needed the love and care of his parents.

Perhaps in his eyes, that sentence was an affirmation of Itachi, but it implied a kind of harshness of "it is only natural that you can do this" - it is not worthy of my surprise and praise that you can do this, but if you don't do it, it is not right and it is disappointing.

This alone is enough to show how indifferent Uchiha Fugaku was to Itachi's emotional needs, and how much expectations and pressure he placed on him.

After the Nine-Tails Rebellion, Danzo moved the Uchiha territory to the edge of the village. The Uchiha family held a meeting and asked Fugaku to write a letter to express their grievances. As soon as they left the hall, Fugaku asked Itachi who was looking at the map: "What do you think?"

After Itachi graduated and became a Genin, he and Uchiha Fugaku were rarely seen walking on the street. Fugaku kept talking about his and Uchiha's positions, but was interrupted by Itachi and changed the subject.

During a mission after being promoted to Genin, Itachi's two good friends from the same class died in front of him, which made him activate the two magatama out of sadness; in the conversation with Uchiha Fugaku, Fugaku first praised Itachi's strength and expressed his pride in his son, and then expressed his joy that Uchiha's power would be strengthened.

Then he warned Itachi not to be arrogant and to keep working hard, and finally he proudly affirmed Itachi's self-discipline again, "You don't need me to remind you, after all, you are my son."

How did Itachi react when he heard what Uchiha Fugaku said? He gritted his teeth and clenched his fists, but he immediately restrained all his emotions when Uchiha Fugaku turned around.

I don't know since when, Itachi has been able to disguise himself so skillfully in front of Uchiha Fugaku that even Fugaku didn't notice.

"I have ended the war in the ninja world, the Root has been abolished, and because of me, the Uchiha clan no longer has the tense relationship with Konoha in the original timeline."

"I think Fugaku could be a little more lenient with Itachi's education."

"Putting all your hopes on your son just because he's so good is not what a father should do, Fugaku."

In the real world, deep in the ocean, an ancient city forgotten by time gradually reveals its outline.

The soaring towers, exquisite carvings, and glittering gems sparkle in the darkness of the seabed. Its architectural style is a blend of classic and fantasy, and each building looks like a carefully crafted work of art.

These buildings seem to be unaffected by the erosion of sea water and retain their original magnificence and solemnity, as if time has stood still here.

In the center of the city, a magnificent palace stands tall. The palace gate is made of precious pure gold, and is carefully engraved with complex ocean patterns; above the door lintel, various rare gems sparkle with soft light, like stars, illuminating the entire palace square like a dream.

Around the square, towering stone pillars stand like guardians, engraved with ancient texts and patterns. These historical marks seem to be telling the glorious history of Atlantis.

The interior of the palace is magnificent, with murals, sculptures, and gorgeous tapestries, each of which reveals its dignity and authority; deep in the palace is a throne decorated with deep-sea pearls and gems.

On the throne sat the king of this city - Aldrian.

He was tall and burly, like a giant in the ocean, giving people an inviolable majesty. He held a trident that flashed with cold light in his hand and wore a dark blue robe embroidered with a pattern of rolling waves.

Under the throne are the city’s high-ranking officials. Some have human bodies and fish tails, some have crab-like hands, and some have horns on their heads. They look different, but each of them exudes a terrifying aura.

They are the most noble existence in this city, in charge of every corner of this sea area and maintaining the prosperity and tranquility of this city.

Among them, the most eye-catching is an old man with a human body and a fish tail. His fish tail sparkles with golden light, and his eyes reveal wisdom and depth. He is the wise man of this ancient city and Eldrion's most capable assistant. His name is Nereus, and he is also the first person to come into contact with humans in this newly revived city.

"King, what Elder Nereus said is not accurate. Everything will be destroyed under our sea tide."

“Even if some powerful humans appeared later, they only killed the sea creatures who followed us and were born in this world.”

"Even though times have changed, we, Atlantis, are still the most powerful civilization on this planet."

A person with a human body but hands that still looked like crab claws knelt on one knee and spoke respectfully to Eld Ryan on the throne. However, his tone was full of arrogance as if it was innate, and was filled with disdain for today's human civilization and the emerging ocean civilization.

In his eyes, whether it is human civilization or those newly born mutated sea beasts with rudimentary intelligence, they are just mortals born in an era without their Atlantis civilization. If they were born in their Atlantis era, how could they appear?
However, the era when they were the protagonists of this era has passed. After the revival of their Atlantis civilization, all civilizations on this planet, whether human or other races, will submit to them, Atlantis.

Those who disobey will have only one way to go, and that is death.

He did have the capital to be arrogant. As one of the oldest civilizations on the planet, Atlantis still maintained its unrivaled strength even after countless years of changes.

Their weapons and technology are far beyond the imagination of modern human civilization.

They mastered the hardest minerals in the deep sea. The weapons and armor forged with these minerals were not only indestructible, but also contained powerful magical powers. When equipped with these weapons, the Atlantis warriors were like behemoths in the sea, invincible on the battlefield.

They also have the technology to control marine life. Through this technology, they can make the giant beasts in the sea become their allies and conquer the world together.

And their King of Atlantis, Aldrian, possesses the power to control the ocean. He can communicate with every drop of water in the ocean, making the waves dance for him and the storms rage for him.

It can be said that the ocean is Atlantis’ most powerful ally.

Being so powerful, why wouldn't they be arrogant?

No matter how the times change, Atlantis will always be the most powerful civilization on this planet.

"Xuanjia, you underestimate today's human civilization and the new sea tribes."

Nereus said calmly as he looked at the Atlantean with crab claws.

"Don't forget, we have only just revived, and the power we possess only comes from the bodies that carry our memories."

"Even though we rely on Atlantis' technology, we have gained some strength at the cost of overdrawing our potential, but it is still far from enough to compare with us at our peak."

"According to human civilization, except for the king, our strength is only second order."

"This kind of power is not to mention compared with human countries such as China and Lighthouse that have several first-order people. Even in the ocean, there are powerful enemies that we cannot defeat."

"I think you have not forgotten the power of Kunpeng. Even a king would find it difficult to defeat it."

When Eldrion heard Nereus' words, his majestic face stiffened slightly, and the scene when they encountered the Kunpeng at the beginning of their awakening emerged in his mind.

He originally wanted to regain control of the ocean, but when he faced the sea creature called Kunpeng by humans, he was easily crushed, and the authority he possessed to control the ocean was directly suppressed by the other party in the same way.

If the other party had not been hostile to them, perhaps their plan to conquer the ocean would have been ended before it even began.

The new sea race actually holds greater ocean authority than him. If this era was not the era of Atlantis, countless people in Atlantis would have collapsed because of this.

And those humans, the division of power is so simple, directly dividing it into the first sequence, the second sequence, and the third sequence. Those below the sequence are not qualified to be counted as strong.

The body that carries his memories was originally just a second-sequence mutant sea beast. It was only because of Atlantis's technology of overdrawing potential that he was promoted to the first sequence, but it was only the first sequence.

If he were in the ocean, holding the trident, he could rely on the power of the ocean to rival or even kill the most powerful first-sequence humans. However, if he were on land, his strength was not enough to defeat any first-sequence human.

"That Kunpeng was just lucky and evolved one step ahead of others."

"When Lord Sea King recovers to his peak, it will be easy to kill him."

"As for that group of humans, apart from having some strength on land, they pose no threat to us in the ocean."

"As long as we follow our previous plan and swallow up the land step by step, no matter how strong those humans are on land, they will be meaningless to us."

Xuanjia spoke in an arrogant tone, not taking the powerful Kunpeng or the first-sequence level psychics on land seriously at all.

The battle that destroyed Sea City had obviously given him confidence. Before he was defeated by humans, no matter what Nereus said, it could not affect his pride.

"It was that country called the Island Nation that dared to pour those impure liquids into our territory while we were asleep."

"If the spiritual energy had not revived and cleared those impurities, the entire ocean would have been polluted because of them."

"It's just courting death."

"Even if there is no Kunpeng sea creature, we will go forward to cause trouble for them."

Xuan Jia snorted coldly.

He had never thought that when Atlantis was sleeping, the human countries of this era would actually pour liquids filled with impurities into the ocean. If the spiritual energy had not revived to purify those impurities, all living things in the entire ocean would have been affected. It was simply a heinous crime!

If the Kunpeng had not dealt a heavy blow to that country before them, they would have also caused trouble for them.

"trouble?"

"If I remember correctly, although that country has been severely injured by Kunpeng's attack, its high-end combat power is still there, and there are three first-sequence level humans guarding it."

"How are you going to cause trouble for them?"

"Submerge that country with a tsunami like what happened to Haicheng?"

Nereus glanced at the black armor and shook his head helplessly.

"There is a person in their first sequence named Luoshui Sanxian. His strength is also at the forefront among the first sequence of human civilization. He has the ability to control the elements."

"The main reason why we were able to succeed in Haicheng is that there is no first-order human guarding Haicheng. I heard that there is a first-order person in China named Chen Bing, also known as the Ice Emperor. As the name suggests, he is like the emperor of ice, which shows his control over ice."

"If she was guarding Haicheng at that time, do you think you could have submerged Haicheng so easily with a tsunami?"

"Why does Elder Nereus always destroy his own prestige and boost others' ambitions?"

When Xuanjia heard Nereus' words, he looked at him with dissatisfaction. From the beginning till now, Nereus has been talking about the power of human civilization and the new sea people.

They are indeed powerful, but no matter how powerful they are, can they compare to Atlantis? Why do they always boost others' ambitions and destroy their own prestige?
Those who don’t know might think that Nereus is the elder of humans and the new sea creatures, rather than the elder of their Atlantis civilization.

"I'm just reminding you not to underestimate human civilization and the new sea tribes just because of one victory."

"Besides, the first opponent we chose is China, which is now regarded as the strongest country in human civilization."

"The Three Emperors of China are all powerful men who are no less powerful than the King. If we underestimate them, I am afraid we will suffer a great loss in the future."
