The Land of Demons' Shrine Maiden, Shion
Although the vibrations have lessened, they are still ongoing.
Shinki and Naruto walked up the hill and looked at the source of the tremor not far away.
There, there is a door leading underground.
Then, the door broke down...
"Rumble--"
Thousands upon thousands of armored figures made of clay emerged from them!
These armored figures, wielding spears and halberds, were tall and moved in perfect unison, like robots!
"What is this?" Naruto asked, puzzled.
Shinki looked thoughtful. "When we were traveling on the continent, Master Jiraiya mentioned that decades ago, there were people who attempted to invade the entire Shinobi World, using the power of evil beings from another world to create an immortal army..."
"Could these strange things be...?"
"Did the Pervy Sage ever tell us about this? (▔,▔)" Naruto asked, squinting.
Shinki: "..."
"You were sleeping at the time, you know what a chicken! convex(`0´)convex"
"So what should we do now? Report this to the village?" Naruto asked.
Although he was unhappy and wanted to get out for a stroll, the Undead Legion could endanger the entire continent, and the news needed to spread as quickly as possible...
After a moment's thought, Shinki decided that the overall situation should be prioritized.
"I'll use the Flying Thunder God to go back and deliver a message."
Konoha, Hokage's Office.
Tsunade and Shizune were engrossed in their work.
Suddenly, Tsunade noticed a figure flash in front of her.
When I looked up, there was no one there!
"Could it be a hallucination?"
Tsunade frowned.
As she looked down to continue reviewing documents, she noticed a piece of paper had appeared on her desk sometime during the process...
Tsunade smiled and said, "It must be a message from the Shinki."
However, when she saw what was written on the letter, she couldn't laugh anymore.
Terracotta Warriors Appear in the Land of Demons
Tsunade also experienced the Moryo of the past, so she is very sensitive to the words "terracotta warriors".
Upon receiving the message from Shinki, she immediately summoned the Anbu, intending to send someone to investigate the matter...
On the other side.
Shinki and Naruto, who were secretly observing the terracotta warriors from the hilltop, discovered that the terracotta warriors were all heading in one direction.
The two followed the terracotta warriors until they arrived at the outside of a shrine.
At this moment, the terracotta warriors are attacking the ordinary people living here.
"Shinki, should we go up and help?" Naruto said.
Shinki nodded. "Of course, your father once said—'To see what is right and not do it is not true courage.' ⸜(๑ᵕ๑)⸝⋆*"
Naruto: "..."
He's still finding it hard to accept that the Fourth Hokage Shinki his biological father.
Inside the shrine, when the disaster struck, all the guards stood guard in front of a certain girl!
"Protect Shion!"
"Only she can seal away the demonic Moryo!"
At this moment, the white-haired, purple-eyed girl, protected by the crowd, had a complex expression.
She is the priestess Shion, whom the guards risked their lives to protect.
Ahead, the guards clashed with the undead terracotta warriors, suffering heavy casualties, while protecting Shion as they fought and retreated...
Just then, several white figures appeared in front of Shion!
"She must be the priestess?" said the man in white robes.
"That should be it. Lord Huangquan instructed that only a priestess in the Shinobi World can seal Lord Moryo. It's better to kill the innocent than let the guilty go free," the white-robed man C replied.
"Why all the nonsense? Let's get started!" The white-robed man said sternly, his face showing displeasure.
Fire Style: Fire Walk!!
"Whoosh--"
Flames burned around the girl Shion and her guards, forming a circle!
The next moment, the white-robed man opened his mouth and shouted, "Wind Release: Gale!!"
"Call--"
A gust of wind blew out!
The wind fanned the flames, causing the Fire Style circle to form a massive vortex of fire!
At the center of the vortex of flames, Shion endured the scorching heat and screamed in agony!
"This priestess isn't all that great," the white-robed man scoffed.
Just then, Shinki, moderate sound suddenly came from the rooftop behind them.
"Water Release: Torrential Rain!"
In an instant, dark clouds gathered in the sky!
"Splash--"
The torrential rain poured down, instantly extinguishing the raging flames!
Meanwhile, the unusually heavy rainfall triggered a mudslide on the back mountain...
"Whoosh--"
A massive tidal wave of earth, rocks, and mud is rushing towards the shrine!!
To prevent the mudslide from harming innocent people, Shinki once again formed hand seals!
"Wood Release: Vine of Life!"
"Whoosh--"
Thousands of vines, as thick as a thigh, sprouted from the ground, wrapped around the bodies of the guards fighting the terracotta warriors, and lifted them high into the air...
The next moment!
"Boom--"
A massive mudslide surged forth!
With a "whoosh!" sound, it completely destroyed the shrine!
Then, the mudslide swept away the perfectly synchronized terracotta warriors, utterly destroying them!
Soon, the heavy rain stopped and the mudslide subsided.
Shinki lowered the warriors who had been carried high into the air by the vines and landed beside Shion.
At the same time, Shion angrily pointed at the Shinki...
Having been pampered and protected by everyone since childhood, she was now soaked to the bone and very angry!
However, she was stunned when she saw Shinki's face clearly.
(⌯︎¤̴̶̷̀ω¤̴̶̷́)✧︎
That perfect face struck her heart instantly...
So handsome... who can resist?!
After blushing for a moment, Shion quickly regained her composure as a shrine maiden and pointed at the Shinki: "Which Ninja are you from? How could you be so reckless and destroy the shrine?"
Shinki: "I even saved you guys. ┐(´-`)┌"
"This..."
Shion was speechless.
Indeed, if Shinki hadn't arrived in time, she would probably be dead by now.
After a moment of silence, Shion noticed the Konoha Forehead Protector on the Shinki and said matter-of-factly, "I... I'm a priestess, and you're Ninja. Isn't it only right that you saved me?"
Shinki was shocked upon hearing the woman's words.
He admitted that the girl did have a bit of beauty, but it was limited, and she couldn't even compare to Tsunade.
Where does her confidence come from?
Shinki retorted, "Why should it be? You're so ugly that even a fly wouldn't give you a second glance?"
After saying that, Shinki looked the girl up and down...
Shion's face immediately flushed red.
Her clothes were already thin, and after being soaked by the heavy rain, they clung to her body, and in some places were even see-through...
For some reason, the boy's gaze seemed to penetrate her clothes...
Blatantly...
But, inexplicably, there's also a little bit of... anticipation?
Before Shion could speak, the guard beside her spoke first, "You're Ninjas from Konoha, aren't you? This is a priestess from our Land of Demons! You mustn't disrespect a priestess! ╰_╯"
Upon hearing this, Shinki seemed to realize something.
When Jiraiya talked about the chaos of the Moryo, he said that the one who finally sealed the Moryo was Miroku, the priestess of the Land of Demons.
The girl before them must be the successor priestess of the Land of Demons!
No wonder the Undead Legion had their eyes on her...
