Ripples

He sensed it and finally decided:

"... The whole army, go in! Rescue the Princess Deity!"

The vanguard of Usa Shrine rushed in, and then Empress Jingu in the middle, without hesitation, swiftly stormed into the Munakata Grand Shrine's Divine Domain.

After He entered, shouts of battle arose from behind the army, and a large number of Monster emerged. Led by the three Monster General of the front, left, and rear, they charged into the reinforcements of Usa Shrine, and the two sides instantly engaged in fierce fighting.

These relatives were not human, so the Monster did not hold back, nor dared to.

Those who worship Hachiman are mostly warriors, and those who can be transformed into his retinue are generally powerful individuals, a trait shared by the retinues of the Heavenly God.

Having experienced a battle with the Heavenly God, the Monster personally witnessed the fighting prowess of these familiars.

So they went all out from the start.

The Monster and the Heavenly God launched a surprise attack, cutting off the reinforcements with Empress Jingu as the dividing line.

The retainers of Usa Shrine were instantly stunned.

Monster and Heavenly God beings unleash their ultimate attacks without restraint.

Haruno, Yukino, Tsuruko, and Motoko also launched a full-scale attack.

They deliberately cleared a path, Shizuka Hiratsuka, without lingering in battle, transformed into a black shadow and rushed into the Divine Domain.

A tremendous change has taken place within the Munakata Grand Shrine Divine Domain.

"Oh no, we've fallen for their trap!"

Empress Jingu waited for several seconds but the rear guard didn't arrive, and she knew something was wrong.

He immediately turned to flee, but cracks appeared on the border of the Divine Domain, blocking his path.

"Seal!"

Without hesitation, the Empress Jingu unleashed Divine Light in her hand, determined to break the seal with all her might.

But then, a splashing sound rang out, followed by a deafening roar. Shuya's Black Tortoise demon body manipulated the seawater, creating a giant wave that surged forth.

Section 306, Page 290: Ripples

Even if Hachiman's familiars were all experienced warriors in their previous lives, they wouldn't be able to dodge a sneak attack from someone as powerful as Shuya.

They could only try to stick together with those around them to avoid being separated and mercilessly swept away by the flood.

As the giant wave crashed over, the reinforcements, which had only entered halfway, scattered.

Empress Jingu was left with only a few thousand relatives.

Those relatives who were swept away were immediately grabbed by the right-hand Monster lurking in the water, who forced them into the sea to fight.

"Who are you!"

The Empress Jingu screamed angrily, her beautiful and heroic face contorted with rage, her phoenix eyes glaring at Shuya.

"The one who killed you."

Shuya replied casually, then spread his crimson-gold fire wings and flashed in front of the Empress Jingu.

How could they possibly react to the Vermilion Bird Divinity's divine speed?

Shuya unfurled his fiery wings amidst the crowd and slapped them down, killing hundreds of his followers. Then, his black flame wings extended and transformed into needle-shaped spikes that shot out.

"Don't even think about it!"

The Empress Jingu's divine Divine Power surged, protecting some of her subordinates, but another hundred or so were pierced and then burned to death.

"No carrying."

Shuya's body extinguished, he transformed into Azure Dragon, its tail swishing wildly!

A streak of cyan light flashed past, and the Empress Jingu and some of her protected followers were slammed toward the border of the Divine Domain.

He spat out a mouthful of divine blood, and subconsciously looked around, only to find that there was no one there.

All of His protected followers were Shuya by the shockwave through the barrier, and the remaining followers were quickly electrocuted by lightning.

In the blink of an eye, thousands of family members were wiped out.

However, the Empress Jingu herself was supported by a continuous source of Power of Faith and was not injured.

The Empress Jingu glared venomously at Shuya, snarling, "You're dead! After we get out of here, I will... I will... ah..."

His voice suddenly stopped, and he stiffly lowered his head.

A hand, shrouded in black mist and as white as jade, pierced through His chest.

The Empress Jingu's lips moved as she turned around in disbelief.

He saw someone clinging to his back.

Shizuka Hiratsuka, her body shrouded in black aura stained with divine blood, like a demon descending to earth.

Shuya smiled slightly, "Sorry, I was just bait."

Shizuka Hiratsuka exhaled. "But I am the true love."

With her other hand, she gently stroked Empress Jingu's head.

"Don't worry, I'll be quick."

"No... Ah, oh oh oh ah ah ah---!"

Amidst the screams, a muffled thud followed.

Shizuka Hiratsuka knocked open Empress Jingu's head and pulled out a Godhead.

The Empress Jingu has fallen.

From beginning to end, He was completely outmaneuvered.

The divine blood within Shizuka Hiratsuka was quickly absorbed by the Godhead, restoring her purity.

She fell from the sky, landing gracefully on the water, her left hand clutching the Godhead.

Shuya said lazily, "Oh, how does it feel to kill a god for the first time? Are you particularly excited?"

Shizuka Hiratsuka tossed the Godhead aside listlessly, shaking her head. "Not very good, lacks substance. Feels too weak, uncomfortable to fight."

Shuya was amused by this unique metaphor. "Hahaha, after all, you're not human."

"Alright, you can seal the Godhead now."

"Good."

Shuya didn't say anything, letting Shizuka Hiratsuka handle things first.

Empress Jingu is dead, but her Godhead remains.

This Godhead cannot be destroyed, otherwise He will immediately be resurrected in the Usa Shrine, thus failing to achieve the goal of weakening His power.

Shuya instructed Shizuka Hiratsuka to envelop the divine Godhead with her Heavenly Demonic Qi.

Shizuka Hiratsuka controlled the flow of energy, and black energy gradually filled her Godhead.

Shuya took the opportunity to look around. The right-hand Monster were still fighting with the familiars of Usa Shrine in the water, but it was almost over.

Shuya launched a preemptive attack, and then the Empress Jingu fell quickly. They lost their command and fought independently, and their numbers were also at a disadvantage.

It's difficult to sustain.

Before Shizuka Hiratsuka could finish her business, they were all dead.

Shuya instructed, "You all go out and help."

The Monster on the right went out to carry out the order, and a short while later, a large group of Monster came in.

The four Monster General and the head of the Kansai family stepped forward to report that the Usa Shrine's reinforcements had been completely wiped out.

"Good."

Shuya replied, "Let's go rest on the island for a while, and we'll talk after I've dealt with the divine Godhead."

After he finished speaking, he told Shizuka Hiratsuka to follow him and lead the whole group to Okinoshima.

The Three Munakata Goddesses warmly welcomed them.

They were shocked to see the Heavenly God's subordinates there, but wisely kept quiet.

"Alright."

A short while later, Shizuka Hiratsuka handed the Godhead to Shuya.

"Okay, thanks."

Shuya took the Godhead and infused it with the energy of his Natural Martial Bone.

The same high-quality energy was not assimilated by the Heavenly Demonic Qi; instead, it mixed together to reinforce the seal, making it impossible for the Empress Jingu to turn the tide.

The Three Munakata Goddesses were secretly watching, gasped in shock.

That's absolutely outrageous.

How could someone be so ruthless as to seal away the combined Heavenly Demonic Qi and the energy of Natural Martial Bone?

... No, perhaps only a human could do such a thing.

After completing the sealing of the Godhead, Shuya put it away.

"Then next is Usa Shrine."

Shuya glanced at the humans, gods, and demons present. Although they weren't in their best condition, they weren't far off.

The battle just now went smoothly; it was more like a warm-up.

Let's go.

The Shuya time.

The Monster emerged from the Divine Domain one after another, followed by the Heavenly God's subordinates.

The Three Munakata Goddesses will not go with them.

Since Shuya had promised to let them go, he didn't kill the Three Goddesses.

He left three strands of Divine Power on them. This wasn't much of a restriction; if they used their full strength, they could wear down the Divine Power in just a few days.

He only needs to delay them for a few days, without hindering his actions.

The Three Munakata Goddesses were unable to resist Shuya's Divine Power.

They needed an excuse to prove that they had no choice but to send out the distress signal.

Even if Shuya were to be defeated, they could still escape punishment, or at the very least, have their sins mitigated.

They will then hide in the Divine Domain and slumber, focusing on destroying Divine Power and not participating in the war.

Shuya ignored the Three Goddesses from the heart and stood at the edge of the Divine Domain.

As long as he removes the Black Tortoise's seal and leaves the Divine Domain, Amaterasu will sense what's happening here.

Shuya know how Amaterasu would respond.

Anyway, he'll stick to the original plan and attack Usa Shrine; there's no way he'll go wrong.

"Why are you standing there motionless? Are you worried you can't win?"

Shizuka Hiratsuka said casually.

"No... Let's get out of here. It's no use saying anything now."

The conflict between Shuya and Amaterasu has become irreconcilable.

He put away his Black Tortoise incarnation and stepped out of the Munakata Grand Shrine Divine Domain.

When Shuya stepped out of the Spirit Realm.

Fate created ripples that spread far and wide.

At the same time, Shuya also felt a sudden unease, as if something bad was about to happen.
