The screen comes to Yomi.
dusk...
Yomi Listening to the report of his subordinates who had fled back in embarrassment, their faces were expressionless, but the hands hidden under their sleeves were indeed squeezing loudly.
He looked at the people kneeling and kowtowed, and said coldly.
"The assassination failed... There is a powerful Ice Release ninja beside the miko?"
Yomi's voice contained no emotion or anger as he repeated the contents of the report.
Then, he suddenly chuckled.
"Ice Release... isn't Land of Demons's local force... invited foreign aid?
Hmm...an unexpected change."
He stood up slowly, his golden eyes filled with uncertainty.
Land of Demons's guards are nothing to worry about, but this sudden appearance of Ice Release ninja requires a re-evaluation.
"Sir, that man is very strong. Our people are almost..."
The escapees tried to add more, but were cut off by Yomi and Teuchi.
"I understand."
Yomi's tone was still calm, but it made the people below feel a chill.
"The plan needs to be readjusted. Any strong attack will only serve to alert the enemy.
Kusuna, Shizuku, Setsuna, Gitai."
The moment he called out his name, four figures appeared in front of Yomi.
"Here."
"You four, let's go."
Yomi's voice is deep and clear.
"The goal remains the same, I am still a miko.
But this time, I mainly focused on testing to find out the details of the Ice Release ninja.
If you can resist, invite the witch over or get rid of her.
If they are defeated, then they will mainly focus on containment.
At least... hold them back at the speed of Land of Swamps."
"Yes, Master Yomi!" The four of them knelt down on one knee and responded in unison, and then disappeared in a flash.
"The rest..." Yomi turned his gaze to the people who fled back, and said in a cold tone.
"The only way to go to Land of Swamps, help Sound Four delay them."
"As commanded..."
The subordinates who were kneeling on the ground felt as if they were being pardoned, kowtowed to their leader, and then retreated to carry out the order.
"Ice Release...Land of Water."
Seeing that the surrounding men had retreated, Yomi murmured to himself.
"Forget it, it's not important anymore."
He turned around and looked in the direction of Land of Swamps.
"Mikos must go to Land of Swamps to seal it. This is the key and their destiny.
Hmph... Miko... you can't escape.
No matter how many variables there are, your fate has already been determined. You will eventually use your power to pave the way for Master Mōryō's complete recovery..."
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly looked a little slumped and coughed non-stop.
Land of Demons Outside the shrine...
The four of them stood together quietly, overlooking the cliff of the entire shrine.
"Brother, hurry up! Give us your power!" Shizuku couldn't wait to get closer, her voice filled with the usual playfulness and excitement.
"I can't wait to try my new powers."
Kusuna looked at him helplessly after hearing this, and then raised his palms.
In an instant, several strange... tentacles emitting ominous purple light appeared in the palm of Kusuna's hand.
"Okay, let's allocate it now."
As soon as he finished speaking, he operated the three strange tentacles and injected them into the bodies of the other three people except himself.
"Hmm...!" At the moment of injection, several people groaned, and then a faint purple light began to appear on the surface of the body.
The whites of their eyes gradually turned pitch black, and strange stripes began to appear on their bodies.
In terms of shape, Gitai is the most prominent. His hands gradually become larger, like a gorilla.
As the purple light gradually dimmed, the intensity of Chakra around him skyrocketed visibly to the naked eye, carrying a cold and violent aura.
Gitai grinned, moved his muscles and bones, and made a crackling sound, feeling the power surging in his body that was far beyond what he had ever seen before.
"Feels... so good!"
"Remember your orders."
Seeing that the three of them had almost adapted, Kusuna spoke up to remind them.
"The main thing is to test and find out the details. But if there is a chance... take down the witch directly."
"Understood!"
The three of them responded in unison, their eyes shining with excitement.
After confirming that everyone was clear, Kusuna took the lead and jumped off the cliff, followed by the three others.
In this way, the four of them were like arrows leaving the string, carrying the powerful power of Chakra, and headed towards the shrine.
Inside the shrine guest room.
Ning Xue, who was refining Chakra cross-legged, suddenly sensed several undisguised Chakra waves heading towards the shrine.
He opened his eyes suddenly, and his figure appeared on the roof in a flash.
The night wind blew across Ning Xue's mask, and beneath that, the veins at the corners of his eyes had quietly popped out.
"Byakugan!"
His vision penetrated the night and the woods, looking straight down. There were three strange purple Chakra wrapped in his body, and a ninja with acceptable strength.
The four of them... seem to be no ordinary ninjas, that purple Chakra...
Under the mask, Ning Xue frowned slightly.
Full of evil aura... is it the power of Mōryō?
After thinking for a moment, he decisively shouted downwards.
"Enemy attack! Four people, heading northeast, extremely fast!"
His voice was not loud, but it reached the ears of every guard clearly.
Ashitaba, who was about to arrange the night watch, suddenly paused, and a trace of astonishment flashed in his eyes.
He subconsciously looked towards the dark northeast, where there was nothing but the sound of wind and Frog Song.
So fast? So far? Not even the outer sentry sent back any signal!
Is the perception of Mr. Fujiwara... so sharp?
This thought only flashed through my mind for a moment.
The sense of responsibility as the guard commander immediately overcame all surprises and doubts.
"Protect the miko-sama!"
Ashitaba roared, his voice slightly hoarse due to urgency.
"First and second teams, immediately block all entrances to the main hall! Third team, follow me to assist the miko-sama in moving!"
After he hurriedly gave the order, he took a deep look at the man wearing a strange mask on the roof with complicated eyes.
"The enemies outside... just leave it to your Excellency!"
Ning Xue didn't respond when he heard this, just nodded slightly.
And his eyes were always locked on the three purple Chakra light groups that were rapidly enlarging in Byakugan's field of vision.
In his hand, at some point, a handful of Ice Blade was quietly condensed.
