Starting with the usurpation of Akatsuki, the ninja world was overthrown.

Chapter 221 Has she never seen the Six Paths Immortal?

The Land of Demons is located in the rear of the ninja world. Its terrain is treacherous and easy to defend, so it rarely suffers from war.

This has enabled the country to maintain a precious peace for a long time.

However, this very fact has led to a general lack of sensitivity to outside intelligence among the people here, to the point that many have not noticed the changes in the ninja world's situation over the past year.

While the priestess guard was still convinced that only Konoha could save the ninja world, the Akatsuki members quickly taught him a lesson.

A vivid, poignant, and deeply moving lesson that is almost tangible!

In previous five-on-five battles, the Akatsuki ninjas did not have any significant advantage against the undead.

Even many members of their team couldn't reliably defeat a single undead in a one-on-one fight.

However, when the number of matches increased further, from five against five to more than two hundred against more than five hundred, the situation changed dramatically!

"Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!"

"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"

The perfectly synchronized release of ninjutsu instantly vaporized the undead in the front row.

The assault battalion then launched a frontal attack, while the support battalion immediately adjusted its ninjutsu release, changing the original horizontal wind and fire releases into lightning releases that descended from the sky towards the enemy's back row.

"Lightning Release: Lightning Drawing Technique!"

This can effectively prevent accidental injury to teammates engaged in direct combat.

Such a switch didn't even require any extra communication; the moment the assault battalion charged, all the support battalion ninjas changed their ninjutsu.

Such seamless coordination gave the priestess guards a sense of artistic beauty.

Once the assault battalion had formed ranks and charged through the enemy's formation, the support battalion immediately switched to a different ninjutsu type.

"Wind Release: Sky Bullet Training!"

"Fire Release: Phoenix Flower Technique!"

They decisively abandoned wide-area attack ninjutsu and switched to single-target ninjutsu, using the reconnaissance battalion's locking markers to call out the remaining undead one by one.

Throughout the entire process, the team of over two hundred people did not require lengthy communication. Each battalion and each individual clearly knew what they should do and how to fight!

Many of them are not particularly outstanding individuals on their own, but when they fight side by side, their combat power is astonishing!

In less than ten minutes, the undead army that had terrified the witch's guards to the point of screaming like groundhogs before the battle was completely crushed.

The support battalion began using Earth Release ninjutsu to bury these dead, in order to slow down their regeneration and resurrection.

After the battle, the priestess's guards noticed that not a single member of the Akatsuki had been killed.

Even those who are injured are extremely rare.

Most of them were still breathing normally after the battle, showing that they had plenty of reserves.

At that moment, the priestess's guards were so stunned that they forgot to struggle and thrash.

Soon after, the intelligence was quickly delivered to Shiba Kiyokawa and his group who were advancing.

After reading the information in the intelligence report, Shiba Kiyokawa finally felt completely relieved.

Originally, he felt that the advantage of knowing only the original story was not enough, but now that real-world information had also been delivered, he could finally confirm that the catastrophe that the priestess claimed was enough to overturn the entire ninja world might not be as terrible as she thought.

Just then, a man emanating a strange black aura appeared before everyone's eyes.

The witch's eyes widened instantly, as if facing a formidable enemy.

"Damn it! Yes! He actually found a temporary body to possess and escaped ahead of schedule! No wonder my premonition came true! Damn it, I had already evacuated all the nearby towns!"

The priestess's face was filled with fear and terror, but the next moment she still bravely rushed past the Akatsuki members and charged towards the possessed man in front of her.

At the same time, he didn't forget to shout loudly to Shiba Kiyokawa and the others behind him.

"Your mission is complete ahead of schedule, so run! I left the remaining reward in the room where you stayed the past few days."

For a fleeting moment, Shiba Kiyokawa even couldn't help but want to retort, "You're actually quite nice."

But clearly, they did not leave.

The priestess charged forward alone.

The black smoke-filled man possessed before them let out a beast-like roar, and the ground in front of him burst open.

A dozen or so undead soldiers emerged, but the witch simply clasped her hands together and swiftly unleashed her power, slicing all the undead in front of her with cherry-red energy lines.

Seeing this, Shiba Kiyokawa, who remained in place to observe, raised an eyebrow.

He noticed that the priestess did not form hand seals when using her abilities; in fact, she did not seem to mobilize any chakra.

The possessed man then summoned black tentacles and a monster shrouded in black smoke, all of which were neutralized by the priestess using abilities such as threads and beams of light.

Throughout this process, the priestess simply clasped her hands together to complete the spell each time.

"What kind of ability is this?" Shiba Kiyokawa asked curiously.

As for the course of the battle, at least so far, it has not reached a level worthy of his awe.

Not to mention that he also had Nagato, a reliable ally, standing beside him.

But this scene clearly caused the priestess to misunderstand.

She shouted, "Why aren't you leaving? This disaster has nothing to do with you. Leave now, and you can still survive!"

Then, as if remembering something, she added loudly, "I know about your Land of Demons. After I die, if you promise to take good care of every citizen here, this land will be yours! So leave quickly! You shouldn't die here!"

Then, while fighting, the priestess thoughtfully explained the game's mechanics.

Although this was all information that Shiba Kiyokawa already knew.

"I will seal this monster, because it is actually one with us, the priestess! In the ancient times long ago, the first priestess of the Oni Kingdom possessed too much power. In order not to misuse this power, she split her heart and mind in two, which gradually evolved into the priestess people call the priestess."

The so-called seal is to merge the two into one. As long as we, the priestess, ultimately take control after the fusion, we can use our own death to put this monster back into slumber.

Despite the priestess's exceptionally tragic explanation, she couldn't help but shed tears during the battle, and at the end, she even took the initiative to reveal her deepest secret.

"Actually, I have another daughter named Shion. I hid her among the common people. Originally, I wanted to entrust this country to her, but now it seems unnecessary. I entrust Shion and the Kingdom of Demons to you in the future."

Just as the priestess finished giving her last words, wiped away her tears, and prepared to bravely complete her final redemption.

After watching for a while, Shiba Kiyokawa finally couldn't help but speak up.

His very first words completely ruined the atmosphere of the tragic gunfight.

"It may be offensive to ask this, but I really want to say: Why did your first priestess feel that her power was too great? Had she never seen the Sage of Six Paths?"

"What?" The shrine maiden was taken aback by the question.

After observing for several minutes and gathering basic intelligence, Shiba Kiyokawa raised his hand to signal for action.

"Shinra Tensei!"

"The Dance of Shikigami!"

Nagato and Konan worked seamlessly with him and immediately sprang into action.

He then swiftly teleported into the arena, his ice wings unfurling behind him, and drew his sword to slash down!

The ground in front of them instantly split open into a huge chasm, stretching hundreds of meters forward and slicing through all the black tentacles in its path!

At the same time, the erupting freezing air spread further along the slash marks to both sides, shattering the undead and freezing the monsters!

The possessed man in front of them was originally covered in black smoke, with only his eyes showing a blood-red light.

The slash completely obliterated all the black smoke, blowing the man's hair back to reveal his dry forehead and receding hairline.

The moment the black smoke dissipated, the man's eyes clearly cleared.

Shiba Kiyokawa chuckled and said to the shrine maiden behind him.

"And what exactly is the basis for your judgment that this thing can destroy the entire world?"
