The Death of Anck-su-namun
Yakushi Kabuto, protecting the three behind him, smashed all the attacking Crusader Skeleton. Then he turned to Coulson and said, "I'll protect everyone and break through."
Coulson glanced at Itachi Uchiha standing high above, knowing that the Dagger of Set and the Egypt princess who was said to have been imprisoned for 5,000 years had nothing to do with them anymore.
With these two around, even if they manage to escape safely, let alone gain anything, that would be the best outcome, considering that S.H.I.E.L.D.. had previously attacked them.
Although Coulson was unwilling, he still spoke up decisively:
"Retreat!"
As Coulson uttered those two words, Yakushi Kabuto protected the three of them and rushed out of the tomb. All the Skeleton Soldier blocking their way were wiped out, and a path was cleared for the three of them in an instant.
Jane and Nick realized at this point that the two people who arrived were not reinforcements for their side.
Itachi Uchiha glanced at Yakushi Kabuto, who was leading the retreat, then looked away and instead focused on Hidan below.
Hidan wielded his Bloody Triple-Bladed Scythe, unleashing a massive 360-degree spin slash at Ahmanet, instantly shattering a Stone Coffin between them.
Ahmanet narrowly avoided Hidan's attack. Looking at the cut marks on the ground, she knew that if the attack had hit her, she would have been torn to pieces at the very least.
"Hahaha, you chosen one of Death God, hurry up and show me your strength, or I'll sacrifice you to the Jashin."
As he spoke, Hidan swung his Bloody Triple-Bladed Scythe, slashing towards Ahmanet.
"Whoosh!"
This time, however, the opponent had no chance to stop him and was pierced through the chest by the scythe.
Ah~
Ahmanet looked at the scythe stuck in her chest and howled in pain.
Hidan as he saw that he had struck his opponent with a single blow.
"Is that all the strength you have?"
Hidan simply raised his scythe and hoisted Ahmanet up onto it.
Ahmanet was suspended in mid-air by the scythe. Grabbing the other two blades of the scythe with both hands, she pulled herself off the scythe with a strong effort and then jumped to the ground.
After landing, Ahmanet's wounds healed at a visible speed, quickly Reparo.
Hidan watched as his opponent completed all of this without intervening, and even watched as his opponent recovered from his injuries.
However, Hidan glanced at his scythe and noticed a problem: although he had just pierced the opponent's chest, not a drop of blood had been drawn.
Ahmanet looked at Hidan and shouted, "I am immortal, you can't kill me!"
However, due to the power of the Egypt Death God, Set, even the pharaohs of 5,000 years ago could not completely kill her and could only seal her in Stone Coffin filled with mercury.
Hidan's lips curled into a smile, "Undying Body without blood, that's interesting."
"I'd like to see just how far your Undying Body goes."
"Unfortunately, your strength is far too weak."
Ahmanet knew she was no match for the man before her, so she immediately began chanting a spell. "God of Death, grant me power!"
"Desert storm, heed my command!"
"Boom!"
However, before Ahmanet could finish her incantation, Hidan swung his scythe and slammed her against the wall, smashing through the tomb's wall.
At this moment, some Skeleton Soldier Skeleton Soldier tried to stop Hidan's advance, but they were quickly reduced to ashes before they could even get close.
Ahmanet got up from the ground, looked at Hidan walking towards her, and waved her hands forward. Instantly, countless yellow sands rushed towards him like bullets.
However, Hidan did not block the sand and gravel at all, letting it hit him.
Looking at the sand that hadn't even broken through his defenses, Hidan sneered, "If that's all the power you have, then you might as well die."
"Flying Scythe!"
Hidan hurled his Bloody Triple-Bladed Scythe at Ahmanet, the scythe flying towards her and spinning to slash.
"Ah~ Ah~"
However, Ahmanet was completely unable to stop the scythe's attack. Her flesh was being ruthlessly cut by the scythe. When it was almost completely cut off, Hidan pulled the scythe back, and Ahmanet was hanging from the scythe.
At this moment, Ahmanet was covered in blood and flesh, all her ribs were exposed, and she was cut to a pulp by the scythe, but not a single drop of blood was left on her body.
Ahmanet, who had been captured, suddenly lunged at Hidan, intending to absorb Hidan blood and essence. Given his terrifying strength, she believed that if she could absorb it, her own power would increase significantly.
Then, just as Ahmanet leaped into the Hidan, Hidan kicked her down, sending her crashing heavily to the ground.
Hidan flashed into view of Ahmanet and stomped her underfoot.
"Trash like you think you can ambush Master Hidan?"
Despite being trampled underfoot, Ahmanet retorted defiantly, "You may be able to defeat me, but you can't kill me."
Upon hearing this, Hidan laughed loudly and said, "You don't think I can't deal with Death God's Apostle like you, do you?"
Seeing that Ahmanet was beginning to recover, Hidan immediately activated his Sacrifice Mode.
Hidan's entire body turned black, and white skeletal patterns appeared all over his body.
Seeing Hidan's change, Ahmanet seemed to sense something and immediately cried out in fear, "No, no..."
Hidan activated his jutsu ritual and transformed, then attacked Ahmanet again. However, the parts of his body that were attacked this time no longer had the ability to regenerate.
The power of the Jashin instantly shattered Ahmanet's Death God power. Hidan, who was promoted to Jashin status because there were no Jashin in this world, was still very weak, but he was far superior to Ahmanet, who was a familiar.
Soon, under Hidan's attack, Ahmanet turned to ashes, just like the Skeleton Soldier before her.
With Ahmanet's death, all the Skeleton Soldier and rotting corpses in the tomb turned to ashes and vanished instantly.
Nick, who had just emerged from the tomb and reached the ground under Yakushi Kabuto's protection, suddenly felt a sharp pain all over his body, and then collapsed to the ground.
Seeing this, Jane was confused and immediately called out, "Nick, Nick, what's wrong?"
Nick opened his eyes and looked at Jane in front of him. Before he could speak, he turned to ashes just like the Skeleton Soldier.
Jane's mouth dropped open when she saw this; she had no idea what was going on.
However, Nick had already died when the plane crashed. His survival and even increased strength were entirely due to the power of Ahmanet.
With Ahmanet's destruction, the force that sustained Nick's life was gone, and so it dissipated.
It is precisely because of Ahmanet that Ahmanet lived and died.
Coulson was also puzzled by what he saw; how could a perfectly healthy person have turned to ashes?
At this moment, Yakushi Kabuto spoke up, "Could it be those two inside who eliminated that woman?"
Considering the opponent's S-rank missing-nin status and strength, Coulson agreed:
"It seems that's what you meant."
······
Inside the tomb.
Itachi Uchiha watched as Hidan defeated his opponent, glanced at the Dagger of Set in his hand, and then spoke:
"The item has been retrieved. Retreat and search for the next item."
Upon hearing Itachi Uchiha's words, Hidan shouldered the Bloody Triple-Bladed Scythe and then remarked, "This guy's strength is far too weak; he's utterly boring."
Upon hearing Hidan's words, Itachi Uchiha recalled the great battle in the Magic World against Hell, where countless Hell Creature appeared, their sizes enormous.
The final enemy that appeared was said to be just a clone of the opponent. Considering the opponent's strength, Itachi Uchiha looked at Hidan and said, "There are many powerful enemies. When the opportunity arises, I will show you some."
"I hope that by then, you won't be as weak as she was before."
Upon hearing Itachi Uchiha's words, Hidan paused for a moment, then laughed, "Me? How could that be?"
"Hidan's strength has been steadily increasing."
Itachi Uchiha glanced at Hidan, said nothing, and the two used the Body Flicker Technique to instantly leave the underground tomb.
Itachi Uchiha will write a mission report about the Dagger of Set and the information obtained from this battle and submit it to Lord Charlotte.
······
Coulson waited upstairs for a while but didn't see Itachi Uchiha or Hidan appear. Instead, he saw Henry from S.H.I.E.L.D.. in New York arrive with a large number of field agents.
Upon Henry's arrival, he immediately went to Coulson and said, "Thank you for your support, Agent Coulson."
Coulson shook hands with Henry and said, "I didn't expect something so big to happen in London."
Henry then looked at Yakushi Kabuto and said, "You must be the first ninja recruited by S.H.I.E.L.D.. It's a great honor to meet you."
"Did you take care of Ahmanet?"
Looking at the three people at the entrance to the tomb, Henry asked in confusion, "Jane, where's Nick?"
Upon hearing Henry's words, Yakushi Kabuto replied, "Ahmanet should already be dead. As for Nick, he turned to ashes and vanished along with Ahmanet after her death."
"But we didn't eliminate Ahmanet, so we don't know if it's safe down there."
Hearing Yakushi Kabuto's words, Henry was a little confused about what was going on. After learning the details, he sent his agents down to scout the way. After confirming that it was safe and no one was inside, the group returned to the tomb.
Henry looked at the ashes at his feet and the signs of destruction at the scene, and exclaimed in astonishment, "Such evil could actually be eradicated. I thought she was immortal."
After examining the information left at the scene, the S.H.I.E.L.D.. agents withdrew.
Coulson and Yakushi Kabuto, after confirming the intelligence, returned to S.H.I.E.L.D. Headquarters in New York and reported the results of the operation to Director Nick Fury.
Queen of Asgard.
Nick Fury saw the mission report for the first time and muttered, "I never imagined that besides the Norse Gods, even the gods of Ancient Egypt have come out now."
He then looked at Coulson and asked, "Coulson, why did these two missing-nin kill Ahmanet and steal Dagger of Set?"
Coulson thought for a moment and said, "Based on my and Yakushi Kabuto's guesses, perhaps they are also looking for some special items."
"Just like the Energy Block and 084 Object we traded with the ninjas, they need things like this too."
"As for why Ahmanet was killed, it was probably done incidentally. Hidan's missing-nin was somewhat interested in Ahmanet, but more so in her identity as a Death God's Apostle."
Nick Fury glanced at the documents in his hand, thinking to himself, "These are turbulent times. What secrets does Earth still hold that they don't know?"
After thinking for a moment, Nick Fury looked at Coulson and said, "Your guess makes a lot of sense."
"However, we urgently need to improve our own strength; we can't rely on the other side to solve every problem."
"The items from the Sunagakure Puppet Shop have been prepared at headquarters. Exchange them for the Physical Enhancement Serum as soon as possible; we need Chen Haoran to receive the injection this time."
"The Science Team's analysis suggests that if Chen Haoran were injected with the Physical Enhancement Serum, his fire control ability would undergo a dramatic change."
"Yes, Director!"
······
Jotunheim.
Charlotte had just finished a day of training when he felt the call of the Reverse Summoning. He knew that the Earth's ninjas might have collected items that could be recharged for him, or that the deal between Sunagakure and S.H.I.E.L.D.. had been completed.
Charlotte answered the call of the Reverse Summoning, and her body turned into smoke and disappeared, instantly arriving at Mount Inugami in the Summoning Realm.
These Ninja Dog, however, became his tools for communicating with his subordinates.
Charlotte glanced at Shiba in front of her and patted its head.
"Has Pakkun not come back yet?"
"Sir, Pakkun is still with Tony; the mission isn't over yet."
"However, the one-month deadline is almost up, and it shouldn't be long before I can finish my mission and return."
Charlotte nodded, indicating that she understood. Before he left, Tony had given him a task, asking Pakkun to protect her for a month. Although it was called protection, she actually liked Pakkun and just wanted to be by his side.
Charlotte then looked at a box in front of her, opened it, and found two scrolls and a strangely shaped dagger with a Gem inlaid on top.
Charlotte first looked at the two scrolls, one of which was Mission Scroll and the other was Sealing Scroll.
Upon opening the Sealing Scroll, Charlotte began to read the mission report, and as she read, she understood what was happening.
This is because Itachi Uchiha, Hidan, and even Yakushi Kabuto were involved in the new Mummy storyline and had some understanding of their experiences. They also knew that the dagger in the box was the dagger of the Egypt Death God, Set, and that the other Sealing Scroll contained the Stone Coffin that had once imprisoned Ahmanet.
Itachi Uchiha guessed that these two things possessed special powers, so he sent them to Charlotte together using Summoned Beast.
