Any Monster That Lies on the Operating Table Is a Toy
The Demon Country is a small western border country bordering the Earth Country.
Because of its small size and weak national strength, the country had neither ninjas nor even a daimyo.
The rulers of the Demon Country have always been Priestess, Priestess are said to possess special abilities passed down through generations, capable of subduing otherworldly monsters.
Overall, the Demon Country is a peripheral country that is not easily noticed. In the Shinobi World where the Great Nations stand side by side, unless there is a major change in the power structure, no one will have any interest in such a barren country.
The various countries were skeptical about the Demon Country's Request for Aid.
After all, no normal person would believe that otherworldly demons Mōryō could destroy the world, right?
Moreover, the idea that only Priestess can deal with Mōryō sounds like a hoax.
If the Priestess is really that powerful, why would she need the ninja's help?
Normally, the Three Countries Earth, Wind, and Fire might send some ninjas to check the situation, but now that Sunagakure and Konoha are engaged in a major battle at Kikyō Castle, they are unable to spare any resources. Jōnin are highly valuable as top-tier combatants in such times.
The request from the Priestess of the Demon Country to have more powerful Jonin from various countries Jōnin help is utter nonsense.
As for Iwagakure, the Third Tsuchikage, Ōnoki, was considering when to join the war to besiege Konoha, while also being wary of Kumogakure, who had raided their base during Second Shinobi World War. How could he possibly send a Jōnin squad to the Demon Country at such a time?
If it weren't for the fact that the various daimyo were trying to save face, they wouldn't even send a Chunin squad.
By the time Shiraha and Kushina entered the Demon Country, the Chunin the three villages of Sunagakure, Konoha, and Iwagakure had just set off.
"It really is a small and impoverished country, yet we've already reached the central region so quickly."
Looking at the square tower palace in front of him, Shiraha sighed inwardly. The land area of Demon Country was very small, the land was very barren, and agriculture was certainly not developed. However, the country's public security was quite good.
"Halt! Who goes there? Don't come any closer!"
When Shiraha and Kushina arrived near the palace, the patrolling Samurai immediately went on high alert.
Samurai are outdated and outdated, at least in the ninja world.
Even in the Land of Iron, a nation founded on Samurai, the power of Samurai is combined with Chakra. A simple Samurai has little power to resist a well-trained Genin.
"We are ninjas from Konoha. We heard that the Priestess of the Demon Country has sent letters of Request for Aid to various countries, so we have come to help!"
Shiraha took out the Konoha Headband from his pocket. It was very uncomfortable to wear, so he basically never wore it.
For ordinary ninjas, Forehead Protector are a symbol of the village and must be worn. However, rules are always subject to disregard. The Three Ninja of Konoha, as well as higher-ups, can choose not to wear them if they wish. Given Shiraha's current status, no one would interfere with his decision in this regard.
"Konoha ninja?" The Samurai guarding the area was taken aback at first, then overjoyed.
After all, Konoha won both the First and Second Ninja World War and is recognized by all countries as the strongest Shinobi World, with the highest overall quality of its ninjas. The fact that Konoha's ninjas arrived so quickly clearly shows that they attach great importance to this event and must have sent strong ninjas.
A Samurai wearing black-rimmed glasses stepped forward. He looked to be in his teens, but he wore a tall black eboshi hat, which clearly indicated that he was of a higher rank among the Samurai.
"I am Taraho, the head guard of Prince Miroku. May I have the Forehead Protector shown to you?"
"Taraho respectfully.
"Please look." Shiraha handed his and Kushina's Forehead Protector to Taraho.
After reading Taraho, Ashiho returned the Forehead Protector to Shiraha and Kushina with both hands, and then asked:
"Do either of you have the appointment letter for the Third Hokage of Konoha?"
Generally speaking, when ninjas accept important missions, they will receive a mission request letter, especially missions between countries. When a ninja from Konoha comes, he will definitely have an appointment letter from the Third Hokage.
"No, we heard the news on the way and rushed Taraho. If you don't believe us, you can leave now."
Shiraha shook his head. Anyway, hiding in the shadows would still give him a chance to contact the Mōryō, but it wasn't as convenient as going directly to see the Priestess.
"I am not doubting you two, please do not misunderstand. It is because there were people from the Yomi Sect who impersonated ninjas from other countries and attempted to kidnap Miroku. That is why we are being so careful."
Taraho quickly explained.
"A responsible person like Taraho inspires greater confidence. I wonder who the Yomi Sect is?"
Shiraha smiled slightly. There was no Chakra reaction in this Taraho's body. He was just an ordinary person. But sometimes it is people like this who are serious that can get things done.
"The Yomi Sect is a sect founded by a ninja named Yomi. These people have offered their souls to the Mōryō, attempting to use the demons' power to rule the world. When the Mōryō regain their power and summon the undead army, the world will be destroyed."
A look of fear appeared in Taraho's eyes.
"The Undying Legion?" Shiraha frowned slightly.
Whether the facts are exaggerated is still unknown, but he is becoming more and more interested in this demon Mōryō. Since the people of the Yomi Sect can use Mōryō's power, it means that as long as one offers their soul to Mōryō, one can use its power.
It looks just like the demons from another world described in ancient texts.
Once the Mōryō lies on his operating table, he will slowly uncover all the secrets.
"Can we go see Priestess Highness the Priestess now?"
Shiraha asked.
"Please allow me to inform them," said Taraho respectfully. He couldn't see through the disguises of the Yomi Sect members, but he could see through the Priestess. Whether or not to see her was up to His Highness Miroku to decide.
Taraho was about to turn back to the palace, she suddenly stopped and asked, "May I ask what rank you two hold in Konoha? Would you mind telling me?"
"Rank? Oh! I'm Chunin the Medical Corps, and she's Genin."
Shiraha said with a smile.
Chunin?
Genin?!
Taraho Shiraha, Ashiho's heart sank.
Is Konoha treating the monster invasion as a joke?
"Oh right, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Yagami Shiraha, and hers is Kushina Uzumaki."
"Yagami Shiraha? Uzumaki?" Taraho was taken aback. "You are the disciple of Konoha Sannin of the Lord Orochimaru?"
"Hmm." Shiraha nodded, noticing the change in Taraho's expression.
It seems that the value of his forty million Ryo heads is not as high as the reputation of Orochimaru's disciple.
"Please wait a moment, I'll be right back." Taraho immediately ran towards the palace. One Chunin, but he was Orochimaru's disciple. The other Genin, from the once powerful Uzumaki Clan, so he shouldn't be any worse than a regular Jōnin.
After Taraho left, Shiraha whispered to Kushina, "It seems your status Konoha Genin is still too low. You've been underestimated."
"Hmph! Just wait and see how I flatten that Mōryō!"
Kushina pouted.
She had wanted to be promoted before, but the Third Hokage wouldn't allow her to participate in the Chunin Selection Exam. But it doesn't matter now, since a significant number of Jōnin Konoha have witnessed her using Nine-Tails Chakra Mode, and it would be too unfair for her to participate in the Chunin Ninja Exams.
"The abilities of the Mōryō are unknown, so you will be the main force in the battle. But don't be impulsive; gather information first," Shiraha reminded her. With Kushina's strength, she would naturally be safe, but it was still best to be cautious when facing the Mōryō, a monster from another world whose abilities were completely unknown.
After all, Shiraha himself is essentially an invader from another world, and the abilities he possesses are basically not found in the Naruto World.
A moment later, Taraho came out of the palace and came to Shiraha and Kushina: "Please come with me, Your Highness Miroku is waiting for you in the main hall."
Shiraha nodded and walked towards the palace with Kushina.
As Shiraha passed through the palace gate, he sensed a peculiar Energy Field, extremely weak, which he barely felt unless his body passed through it.
The hall on the first floor of the palace was very spacious, with only a cushion placed in the very center.
Sitting cross-legged on the cushion was a beautiful woman dressed in Miko outfit, who looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old. She was much younger than Shiraha had imagined. In his mind, Priestess should be an old woman with white hair and a face full of wrinkles.
"Lord Shiraha of Konoha, Kushina, please forgive me for not being able to leave the palace to greet you, for only within the palace's barrier can the Mōryō find my location."
Miroku came to the two of them, looking apologetic.
"Your Highness Miroku, you flatter me. May I ask what abilities the Mōryō possesses? And what can I do for it?"
Shiraha didn't waste any words and went straight to the point.
Miroku nodded, his expression solemn, and said, "The Mōryō is a special kind of alien monster that is Immortal Body. No ninjutsu can kill it, not even a ninja's Sealing Jutsu."
The Mōryō were summoned by cultists of the Yomi Sect, who could use the Mōryō ' power to summon an undead army.
As Priestess, my power is perfect for countering the Mōryō, but I'm powerless against the Undead Legion and the ninjas of the Yomi Sect. I'll have to entrust these to you two."
"I understand." Shiraha activated his "Sixth Sense" to enhance his perception, and his Mental Power continuously scanned Miroku's body. There was no Chakra in her body, but she was emitting a peculiar Energy Field. This power was not strong.
Is this the power of Priestess?
Based solely on his senses, Shiraha couldn't detect the extent of the Priestess's power; he would have to wait and see how it actually manifested.
"?"
Halfway through sensing it, Miroku suddenly crossed his arms, looked at Shiraha with a strange expression, and took a half step back.
Shiraha's eyes changed slightly as he deactivated his enhanced perception of the "Sixth Sense".
Judging from Miroku's expression, he had clearly sensed his perception.
Is it that sensitive?
Shiraha's heart stirred. It seemed that the Priestess's power was not simple and was worth studying in depth.
"The leader of the Yomi Sect, Yomi, found me three days ago. He wanted me to pledge allegiance to the Mōryō with him, but I refused. He gave me three days to consider it."
He's probably stalling for time, using this opportunity to let the Mōryō regain its power.
Miroku continued.
"What should we do now? Does His Highness Miroku have a plan?"
Shiraha asked.
Miroku: "To seal the Mōryō, we must go to the Underground Altar where the volcano in the Swamp Country is located, seal the Mōryō's soul first, and then return here to suppress the Mōryō's body within the palace's barrier. However, before that, we must wait for the ninjas from other villages. With just the two of us, we probably won't be able to deal with the Yomi Sect and the Undead Legion."
"Your Highness Miroku need not worry about that. Even if the Yomi Sect is as powerful as our Third Hokage Konoha, we can still deal with them."
Shiraha said with great confidence.
"This..." Miroku's expression was somewhat conflicted. After all, Shiraha and Kushina had come to help out of kindness, and they didn't possess any evil aura of Mōryō, so they definitely had nothing to do with the Yomi Sect. But she couldn't completely trust Shiraha's words, because if something went wrong, the entire world would be destroyed by the Undead Legion, and she dared not gamble.
"How is this possible?!"
Miroku lost his voice.
"What's wrong?" Shiraha was slightly taken aback. Why was Miroku reacting so strongly all of a sudden?
Miroku: "I cannot witness your death."
Shiraha: "?"
"Besides possessing the power to seal demons, the Priestess also has the ability to foresee the deaths of others. I can see the scene of anyone's death, but I cannot see yours."
Miroku explained.
"This means I can live forever," Shiraha said with a smile.
How could Priestess possess such sinister powers?
Prophetic abilities aren't very reliable in the Wizarding World. Shiraha doesn't believe that a Priestess who isn't even Wizard apprentice can predict death.
Even if she could foresee death, so what? The future is constantly changing, and different choices will lead to different outcomes.
Just like Shiraha's arrival in the Naruto World, which has already changed the future timeline a lot.
At the very least, he didn't know just how powerful the enemy would need to unleash the Kurama from Kushina's body.
Many things will not happen.
"And what about me?"
Kushina asked curiously.
"It was a very blurry image. I saw a giant Kurama, but I didn't see your death," Miroku said, puzzled. Both Shiraha and Kushina were beyond her ability to predict death.
"You are special. Since that's the case, I'm willing to trust you! After all, if this drags on any longer, the number of undead will only increase. Even if more ninjas come, they won't be able to deal with them."
"Then let's set off immediately." Shiraha nodded and said, "But we still don't know the current location of the Mōryō, and how can we guarantee that we can get the Mōryō to the Swamp Country?!"
"Actually, the Priestess's power also comes from the Mōryō. In a sense, I am one with the Mōryō, so it cannot stray too far from me. As long as I go to the Swamp Country to activate the altar, the Mōryō will definitely be forced to come to the altar. Therefore, the Mōryō will do everything in its power to stop me from going to the Swamp Country altar," Miroku explained.
"If that's the case, the problem becomes much simpler!" Kushina clapped her fists, silently saying to Kurama, "Kurama, did you hear that?"
"Hmm!" The Mini Nine-Tails emerged from the seal, sat cross-legged, and began refining its Chakra. It reminded the user, "If you use Breathing Technique, combine your own Chakra with the Breathing Technique, don't use my Chakra. If you're using a large amount of my Chakra, don't use Breathing Technique, so your body won't be overloaded. Don't use explosive abilities as regular abilities!"
"Understood!" Kushina replied, mainly because she used the explosive skill "Crimson Dragon Armor" as a regular skill and was used to the feeling of punches landing.
In fact, sometimes she doesn't need to combine Breathing Technique and Nine-Tails Chakra to fight, as her fighting power is already overflowing, but Kushina still habitually uses both abilities at the same time.
However, after Kurama's reminder, she is now consciously paying attention.
"Then I'll leave it to you two."
Miroku bowed deeply to the two of them.
"Let's go," Shiraha nodded.
"Taraho." Miroku summoned Taraho.
"Lord Miroku."
"Taraho, you and the other Samurai stay here and guard the palace. I will go with the two from Konoha to seal the monster. Wait for my return."
"Lord Miroku."
Taraho hesitated, but considering the vast difference between ordinary Samurai and ninjas, she ultimately didn't say she wanted to go together, because going would only be a hindrance.
Please make sure you return safely!
"Um."
Miroku followed Shiraha and Kushina out of the palace.
Rumble~
As soon as Miroku stepped out of the palace's protective barrier, the earth trembled violently.
As far as the eye could see, the ground in the distance was cracked inch by inch, and Stone Golem about two meters tall crawled out from the ground, holding swords, spears and shields, and surrounded the palace where Miroku was.
In just over ten seconds.
Everywhere you look, the mountains and fields are covered with Stone Golem.
Moreover, these Stone Golem were not slow in running, and soon they arrived at the vicinity of the palace.
' Fire Style: Dragon Fire Technique!'
Shiraha Yu quickly completed the Hand Seals.
At the same time, the incantation was completed.
"Shadow Touch"
The straight, dragon-shaped flames flew towards the nearest Stone Golem, instantly shattering four or five of Stone Golem into fragments.
A large black hand, extending from Shiraha's shadow, grabbed the ankle of a Stone Golem, swung it up, and swept down more than a dozen Stone Golem around it. Then it hurled it towards the densest area of Stone Golem, smashing more than a dozen Stone Golem.
However, these shattered Stone Golem were restored to their original state in just a few seconds.
"He really is immortal!?"
Shiraha was somewhat surprised. Under the perception of his "Sixth Sense," he knew that these Stone Golem contained a special kind of Energy Particles. After he defeated them, these Energy Particles quickly condensed, restoring the Stone Golem to their original state. If he could not consume the Energy Particles inside the Stone Golem, he probably would not be able to completely destroy the Undead Legion.
The sheer number of them is enough to make one's scalp tingle. If there were no targeted methods, and their numbers were dozens of times greater, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that they could conquer the world.
Shiraha then used several more spells.
After these Stone Golem were destroyed by his spell, the Energy Particles within them were slightly weakened.
