Ōtsutsuki Wansheng, of Takamagahara and the Ōtsutsuki Main Family, was a woman who had originally been bloodthirsty and cruel. She had once been plotted against and narrowly escaped with her life, but her temperament changed drastically afterward, becoming much gentler and more low-key... until, as her strength grew, she gradually began to stand out.
Oh, come to think of it, that had only happened within the past dozen or so years.
The current Wansheng was not considered top-tier within her clan in terms of strength, but her fighting style was the most unique. She wielded the divine instrument known as the Heavenly Marsh Zither, using melody as a means of attack.
Speaking of the Heavenly Marsh Zither, it had a connection to Ōtsutsuki Ryushiki. In his youth, Ryushiki had been obsessed with developing techniques and divine treasures.
Ryushiki had developed countless divine treasures of unfathomable power and every conceivable kind, yet he lacked a divine instrument.
Seized by a moment of refined inspiration, Ryushiki poured immense effort into developing a divine instrument called the Heavenly Marsh Zither.
But Ryushiki was not omnipotent. He was tone-deaf by nature; even after mastering the knowledge of music, he found it difficult to create an instrument without equal.
Thus, the unfinished Heavenly Marsh Zither was abandoned by Ryushiki in Dragon Palace City.
He had not destroyed the imperfect creation, perhaps hoping that someone would one day inherit it and perfect it.
Hard work did not go unrewarded. Many years later, Wansheng acquired the Heavenly Marsh Zither and perfected it.
Music became Wansheng's greatest weapon. She could turn anyone who heard her melodies into puppets controlled by genjutsu, even if her enemies numbered in the thousands or tens of thousands!
Thus, she earned the beautiful title of the Army-Breaking Songstress!
