Ōnoki then introduced the Land of Ghost's current priestess, Miroku, to the people at headquarters. He said he had only escaped disaster thanks to her priestess powers, which could seal Satoru.
The people at headquarters had heard the legends about the Land of Ghost's priestesses, but they had never expected this priestess to possess the power to counter Satoru.
"Wait, aren't a priestess's powers especially effective against absolute evil?"
"Uchiha Ryobu, that beast among beasts, is even more evil than Satoru. Could we ask the priestess of the Land of Ghost to deal with him?"
A ninja at headquarters had a sudden inspiration, and everyone immediately began imagining the possibilities.
Indeed, legend had it that a priestess had sealed Mōryō, the monster that had once ruled the world.
Liao Wu's power was the evil power of the Uchiha, while the Land of Ghost's priestess wielded purifying power specifically meant to combat evil.
Even Kushina, the strongest member of the Ninja Sect, had been beaten unconscious by Liao Wu, and he had declared that he would destroy the Leaf Village before long.
With disaster looming over them, they had every reason to seek the priestess's help and use her power to purify evil against Liao Wu.
The ninja at headquarters told Ōnoki their idea, hoping he would invite the Land of Ghost's priestess to join the Ninja Sect or form an alliance with it.
Ōnoki agreed. After ending the call, he approached Miroku and explained that he wanted her to deal with Liao Wu.
With plenty of embellishment, Ōnoki painted Liao Wu as a great demon king bent on destroying the world, a threat no less dangerous than Mōryō.
After hearing his account, Miroku's impression of Liao Wu was entirely negative.
*How could someone so evil exist in the Ninja World?
