In the crater created by the Chakra missile, the group sat around the campfire.
Kikin returned to the ruined Yamakawa Castle, found some tableware and ingredients, set up a large pot, and cooked fresh wild boar meat in the boiling pot, emitting an enticing aroma.
"Hey! Choji! Your drool is all over my clothes!"
"I'm so sorry, it smells so good! Elder Kikin, is it ready yet?!"
Choji stared intently at the broth, his eyes gleaming, Choji second an agony.
Kikin took out a small salt shaker from his pocket, sprinkled some into the pot, stirred it a couple of times, and said, "All done!"
After saying that, he served a bowl to Choji and everyone else.
"Gurgle..."
Ignoring the fact that their mouths were burning, everyone started eating like crazy.
Hearing the commotion, Sōretsu nearly dropped the bowl of broth in his hand. "Second Elder, how could you eat the bowl too? Didn't you say you wouldn't get hungry?! Fifth Elder, what are you, a skeleton, doing fighting with us?!"
Kankuro took a sip of the broth, the delicious flavor seemingly elevating his soul. "I never imagined your cooking was so good!"
Kikin chuckled, "Wild ingredients are certainly delicious, but... you can't eat bats."
The Lord God: "... Well said."
Kankuro looked at the tall, Shirofukuji, "Speaking of which, Nuclear Shadow seems better suited to drinking."
Shirofukuji's eyes widened. "What nonsense are you talking about? I'm underage, why would I drink alcohol? I'm younger than you!"
Kankuro Shirofukuji up and down. "(°ー°)???"
Kyōai quickly said, "Hahaha, well, Lord Nuclear Shadow can't drink alcohol, he's sick."
"I see."
Youzhen held the bowl in Ujin hands, finished the entire bowl of meat soup, and let out a long sigh, "Phew~ Speaking of Kendon, what about those orcs you captured?"
Kendon hurriedly put down the bowl, slapping his forehead. "Oh dear! I almost forgot! What a blunder!"
After saying that, he quickly ran towards the spot where the giant golden worm had sunk.
Shirofukuji asked, "What is he doing?"
Ujin said calmly, " Kendon captured some orcs to experiment with the antidote for Beast Seal Transformation."
" Beast Seal Transformation?"
"Those are the things you rode down on missiles and killed."
The three elders looked at each other, bewildered. "What? I didn't see it."
"All right."
"By the way, "Ainz asked, "Why are you calling for air support now? We thought you were in some kind of danger."
The three elders rode over on missiles, partly out of playfulness, but more so out of concern that Kyōai and the others might have encountered some deadly danger.
Kyōai replied, "We were indeed in danger. It was because I hadn't thought things through; I never expected to stumble into the enemy's headquarters."
Ainz was fully aware of the strength of the Land of Rivers, and knew that Kyōai could easily handle it. "These weaklings from the Land of Rivers aren't that strong."
So, Kyōai and Ai spent half an hour recounting the story of Mizuki and the beastmen.
Shirofukuji nodded slowly. "I see. I have a plan!"
Kikin: "Second Elder, is your method the same as mine?"
Shirofukuji: "Same."
Ainz: "Is it the same method as mine?"
Shirofukuji: "That's right."
Kankuro: "What language are they speaking?"
Sōretsu rolled his Shirofukuji: " Nuclear Shadow, what kind of terrible idea have you come up with now?"
The Shirofukuji raised his Murakumo-giri Murakumogiri, "Gurgle, gurgle, of course we're going to blow them up!"
Kikin: "That's right! Blow them up!"
Ainz: "Feel the power of high technology!"
As he finished speaking, a white light flashed from the Murakumogiri.
Seeing this, Kyōai and the others placed their hands on their faces, and white masks appeared. In an instant, they entered Sage Mode and drew their swords, slashing at the Shirofukuji.
" The Meido Zangetsuha!"
" The Great Thousand Worlds!"
" Wind Scar!"
"Ding ding ding!"
Three crisp sounds rang out, and the three men's attacks had no effect whatsoever, only producing a puff of white smoke.
Kankuro, protectively holding his bowl, exclaimed, "Σ() Seriously?! Are all the ninjas in your Nuclear Ninja Village this tough?!"
The white light on Murakumogiri dissipated, Shirofukuji looked at the three of them. "Hey! Let's talk this out, why are you fighting? Are you trying to kill your father?"
Kyōai then slowly said, "Didn't the Grand Elder say that the affairs of the Land of Rivers are for us, the Thirteen Nuclear Guardian Pillars, to handle ourselves? You shouldn't make things worse! Besides, if things really don't work out, there's still the Fourth Elder, isn't there?"
Sōretsu: "Yeah, it's our own business, you guys go away!"
Shirofukuji: "Damn it! I'm Nuclear Shadow! I'm your old man!"
"Cut." "Cut." "Cut."
Kankuro: "Why do I feel like your Nuclear Shadow is practically nonexistent?"
Choji finishing the last bowl of meat soup, Choji miraculously regained his plump figure. "Phew! Elder Kikin, what's in this meat soup? I feel completely recovered!"
Although Kankuro didn't feel it much, after hearing Choji's words, he also felt that his Chakra had returned to its peak state.
Kikin pointed to the salt shaker on the ground. "Oh, I added a secret ingredient from our Nuclear Ninja Village to the soup. Eating it will quickly restore your Chakra."
Sōretsu laughed, "That's right. The intense training of the Thirteen Nuclear Guardian Pillars was all thanks to Elder Kikin Chakra- based meals."
Looking at the small salt shaker, Choji scratched his head. "This small salt shaker... I feel like I've seen it somewhere before."
"I did it! I did it!"
The Kendon excited shout, attracting everyone's attention.
All that could be seen was a bamboo tube emitting yellow smoke, held in Kendon's hand, with nearly a hundred unconscious people standing in front of him.
It's easy to see that these are all orcs who were originally Beast Seal Transformation, and this yellow smoke is the prepared antidote.
Ainz Flying Thunder God to arrive beside Kendon and examined it for a while. " Beast Seal Transformation, what a disgusting technique. That Mizuki deserves to die, actually targeting ordinary people."
These people were originally residents of Yamakawa Castle, and they were the weakest group. To attack them would be a grave taboo in the Shinobi World.
Kendon threw away the bamboo tube. "However, my antidote is only the initial formula; the Beast Seal Transformation hasn't been completely broken, but rather suppressed."
Ainz nodded. "It's alright, I'll just place Sealing Technique: Absorption Seal on them. Your task is to prepare the complete antidote."
Kendon nodded. "Among the orcs, a very powerful red form will evolve, which is extremely ferocious. I'm afraid I won't be able to formulate an antidote in a short time."
Ainz opened his skeletal hand, and numerous white specks of light floated out, disappearing into the bodies of all the residents of Yamakawa Castle: "Alright, they should recover after a good night's sleep. And I've discovered something quite interesting."
"What?" asked Kendon.
Ainz pointed to the residents of Yamakawa Castle: "The erosion by the Beast Seal Transformation has strengthened their physique and given them a certain degree of adaptability to Natural Energy."
Kendon quickly alerted the " Ashisogi Jizō " within his body, confirming the truth. He then burst into maniacal laughter. "Hahaha, interesting! Now I have a new project to study. Hmm, not bad, not bad. If my antidote is fully completed, wouldn't that add tens of thousands of people to the Nuclear Ninja Village who can cultivate Senjutsu?"
