Chapter 271 The Power of the Evil God is Uncontrollable
Meanwhile, while Shisei Aburame was in seclusion researching forbidden techniques, the Jashin Cult in the Land of Hot Water began to stir again.
Some of the ninjas, while learning curse techniques, found that their memories began to resurface.
Those painful, unbearable things, like nightmares, haunted them once again.
Some of the ninjas are still struggling in agony, because the evil magic that once caused them to lose their loved ones has now become their means of survival. How ridiculous!
Of course, some people struggled with their decision, while others succumbed to temptation, because the conditions offered by the evil god were simply too tempting—he could even resurrect his loved ones!
Yes, the other party is a god, and gods are omnipotent. What's wrong with being able to resurrect loved ones?
Some people are brainwashing themselves without realizing that they have been influenced. They are constantly testing their limits and secretly accepting the power from the evil god.
Until finally, his mind was completely distorted by power.
By the time Mieko realized what was happening, it was too late, so she had no choice but to execute these people herself.
"Are you still hesitating?" The voice of the evil god echoed in her mind, and as the voice appeared, an illusion also appeared in front of her.
That was the shadow of an evil god. He had two horns on his head, long hair like a waterfall, and huge fangs stretched his face open, stiff like a mask. But she could sense that the evil man was smiling.
In his hand was a string of beads, thirteen in total, each bead a miniature human head, and within each head imprisoned a soul, its face contorted in agony.
"Hideyoshi..." she whispered, but the illusion before her eyes vanished.
Yes, that's definitely fake; it's an illusion created by sound.
Because no one performs sacrifices, the power of evil gods cannot penetrate in the first place. Gods are powerful because of the rules, but they are also limited by the rules themselves.
"Lady Mieko, what exactly are you teaching us?"
At this moment, a boy whose memory was slightly awakened looked at his former companions who had been executed by them, and finally could not bear it any longer, so he broke through the barrier completely.
"Stop it, we shouldn't let it spread any further. Now that we've forgotten about it, let's not let it reappear!"
Mihoko's face showed pain. Perhaps he really was wrong, but they had no other choice.
"Those who are unwilling to learn, I can seal your memories with a sealing technique. Leave the Land of Hot Water, leave this place."
"What do you mean? Are you saying I'm incapable of protecting the Land of Hot Springs?"
The sensitive boy was provoked by these words.
After shouting those words, he immediately collapsed to the ground, realizing how ridiculous his words had been.
Faced with a formidable enemy, he was indeed powerless!
"I'm so weak, we're so weak!" The boy broke down emotionally, his feigned strength crumbled instantly, and tears welled up in his eyes.
"Lady Mieko, why do those powerful nations bully us? Why is the evil god so fixated on us? Haven't so many of us already died?"
"There's no reason." Mieko couldn't answer him. She simply stepped forward, helped the boy up, and then pulled him into her arms, gently stroking his head.
"I'm sorry I caused you pain. I shouldn't have forced you to stay. Forget it all, forget everything, and be a normal person from now on."
The faint green light pressed against his hand, this seemingly healing medical ninjutsu, actually condensed into an extremely fine needle, destroying the tissue in the boy's mind that stored memories.
A moment later, the boy cried himself unconscious.
Mieko handed the boy to another ninja and said, "Take him away. You all leave here and go to the Land of Waterfalls."
The middle-aged ninja looked at the sleeping boy in his arms, and his pained expression disappeared, replaced by a peaceful one.
He suddenly knelt down: "Lady Mieko, could you... could you please help my child?"
"He's also a ninja from the village. He's only thirteen years old. The evil god's bewitching power is too strong. I'm afraid he won't be able to withstand it."
Mei Huizi shook her head and said, "I can't simply seal away the memories in his mind right now. What I just did was damage his brain nerves, causing him to suffer permanent amnesia, which may even have some impact on his intelligence in the future."
"No, not just about ninjutsu, but everything!" The middle-aged ninja had already decided that rather than let him die here, he would rather let him forget everything and live happily.
Even if his son forgets him and becomes foolish and stupid, he believes that the people of the Land of Waterfall will treat him kindly.
Seeing Mieko hesitate, the middle-aged ninja said again, "The Land of Hot Springs cannot win."
He practically shouted those words, and the other ninjas present felt the same way.
Because they don't believe in their hearts that Tangren Village can continue to hold on, we want to stay here simply because we want to live and die with this place.
After all, they had nothing left to lose except their lives.
"Did you know? The Cloud Ninja have recovered from their fear, and they're back!"
At this moment, another ninja said, "How dare they come again? Aren't they afraid of retaliation from the Land of Waterfall?"
Mieko shook her head and said, "Others can save us for a while, but not forever. The Land of Waterfalls also has its own troubles, and there are times when they are not paying attention or are lax. The Land of Lightning will always find an opportunity, and then it will be swept away by lightning, and the country will be destroyed. Because as a great power, it is necessary to regain face."
"Get ready, get ready for a fight to the death."
All the ninjas fell silent.
Because they saw no hope, because they were too few in number, and because the secret of their ninjutsu had been cracked. It was impossible to recreate that initial kill effect.
No one will fall for it again and foolishly rush in; they will only use ranged attacks to wear them down.
They chose to stay because this is their country.
Meanwhile, on another hill, the newly appointed Fourth Raikage arrived with a large group of people.
Beside him stood a mysterious figure draped in a black cloak.
The Fourth Raikage, A, turned his head and said, "Are you really sure the Land of Waterfall won't easily get involved?"
The man in black chuckled and said, "Don't worry, I wasn't 100% sure. Otherwise, why would I tell you such a secret? Besides, isn't this the scene your Land of Thunder needs to reclaim?"
"The ninja world is far too small; it can only accommodate the five great nations at most. Therefore, it would be best to cut off its two arms before this great war."
"You better be telling the truth!" Ai warned.
