Chapter 292: The Collision of the Demon Slayer and Claymore Worlds

No matter who it is, challenging a Lord-level Boss will be publicly broadcast.

This is the rule of the Arad map.

The same applies to the Lord Monsters that were eliminated earlier.

Therefore, the Konoha ninja were resentful that Orochimaru snatched the first challenge opportunity, because the public broadcast would cause other factions to also notice the Lord-level Boss and send players to snatch it, which would intensify the competition.

After missing the opportunity, the Konoha players would have to face the opposition of the Cloud, Sand, and Mist, and even the Akatsuki, to be able to obtain the Sky Sea Secret Key.

It is far less easy than it is now.

Of course, there is also the worst-case scenario.

That is if Orochimaru clears the level directly; in that case, no one needs to keep looking forward to it.

"Hmph, Orochimaru is truly arrogant."

Tsunade sneered with disdain. The gatekeeper Lorian explained it very clearly: one key allows a team of five to challenge the Lord of the Sky Tower.

But Orochimaru chose to fight alone.

Clearly, his experiences during this time have made him somewhat inflated, thinking that after possessing the abilities of the Samsara Game, he can look down on everything.

"Another Lord Monster has appeared. Who is it? Is it Orochimaru?"

Terumi Mei looked at Orochimaru, who was shrouded in the Necromancer Robe on the plaza.

She hurriedly ordered the players of the Mist Alliance to rush to Bel Myre as quickly as possible to search for the recent movements of Orochimaru and the Konoha ninja.

She could not continue to let Orochimaru scrape up Reward Points and snatch game resources. The rapidly rising Fire Empire made even her feel alarmed; they actually mobilized all the commoners of the Land of Fire and included Ninjutsu in the mandatory curriculum.

Is the crazy Orochimaru not worried that ninjas will disappear from now on? "A player from another world, such an evil feeling; he shouldn't be a guy worth winning over."

The Leader of the Revolutionary Army, whose body was shrouded in a black robe, stood quietly in the corner of the plaza. His gaze fell on Orochimaru, and he instinctively felt uncomfortable.

In the other's eyes, there was a kind of indifference toward life.

It is very similar to the Celestial Dragons, but the Celestial Dragons are that way because of ignorance and arrogance, while the other seems to reject the human species from the very marrow of his bones.

And the Dragon is the exact opposite.

Even after exchanging for the 【Wind Dragon Bloodline】, he still maintains his original intention and will, longing for revolution and freedom from the bottom of his heart.

He hopes to save the commoners and slaves who are suffering.

These are two completely different wills; feeling disgust is because of the conflict and collision between the two wills.

"Sabo, I need to take a trip to Bel Myre. I will leave things here to you for the time being. Sorry."

After leaving the town, a gust of wild wind surged. The surrounding magical gale faintly gathered into the shape of a dragon, wrapping around the Leader of the Revolutionary Army as he swept across the sky.

"A fallen Blue Wing Dragon; this kind of beast with only a faint dragon bloodline shouldn't be this strong, logically speaking, right?"

"Magic Sea, if possible, I want to collect some seawater for research."

Orochimaru broke into a nest of Blue Wing Dragons.

The bat-like protruding wing bones, sharp claws, and deformed dragon heads were far from the real dragon race.

【Blue Wing Dragon Lv. 23】

Although its individual strength is not strong, it is a Tier 2 life form, and the number of wing dragons in the entire nest is terrifying, totaling several hundred.

"Skeleton Sea."

Orochimaru waved the Necromancer Staff, summoning a dense legion of hundreds of skeletons. This is the signature dead-sea tactic of a Necromancer.

Skeleton Warriors, Skeleton Mages, Skeleton Archers... they were all Elite undead he had carefully cultivated, mixed within the Skeleton Sea, commanding the numerous skeletons to fight.

In the blink of an eye, he slaughtered all the Blue Wing Dragons in the entire nest.

The dropped materials were collected into his backpack. After some research, he released a skill, gathering those corpse materials into individual Blue Wing Dragon undead.

Above the Skeleton Sea, a group of undead wing dragons flapped their wings, heading toward the depths of the Dragon Tower.

All the dragon nests along the way were completely destroyed, their bones picked and marrow sucked, turning into members of the Skeleton Sea.

Some rare, residual, inferior Dragon Souls left after death were collected into glass bottles to be used as fuel for pain.

"Can one not even find peace after death? What an evil ability."

With no goal and wandering around, Roger stood on the plaza of a town. Looking at the Blue Wing Dragons that had been transformed into undead, he couldn't help but frown. The projection on the plaza was not just a picture; even the aura could be fed back.

Roger, who has the Voice of All Things, could clearly perceive that many of those in the skeleton legion were humans who had been killed by Orochimaru and transformed into skeletons.

Roger does not reject killing; this is an unavoidable way of survival. Adventure is inherently accompanied by disputes and blood.

He himself, who longs for adventure, also has his hands stained with countless blood.

But he cannot accept wanton killing. Once dead, grievances should be wiped away; why continue to torture the other's soul?

"Truly a guy even more terrifying than Muzan Kibutsuji."

On the plaza of Elvenguard, in the eyes of Kagaya Ubuyashiki, there was fear and disgust, as well as a trace of relief.

In just a half-hour projection, he judged the terrifying nature of Orochimaru.

If the Demon King of the Demon Slayer World were this guy,

I am afraid the Demon Slayer Corps would not even last a hundred years before being completely wiped out, and even the entire country and world would be reduced to a paradise for demons.

His relief,

Was relief at the recklessness and lack of wisdom of Muzan Kibutsuji, who had not been able to grow for nearly a thousand years and had not revealed such ruthless methods as Orochimaru.

"Oyakata-sama."

The Stone Hashira, Gyomei Himejima, was also frightened by Orochimaru and reported: "The Flame Hashira has also received the Game Invitation and is waiting for your orders."

Kagaya Ubuyashiki said in a soft voice: "The Samsara Game is a salvation for humanity. We are all swordsmen who resist demons. There is no need to wait for my orders; this is a gift from God."

"There is one more thing."

The Stone Hashira, Gyomei Himejima, continued: "A member of the Demon Slayer Corps, Tanjiro Kamado, accidentally came into contact with humans from another world while resolving a demon disaster in a town on the edge of the continent."

"Another world?"

Kagaya Ubuyashiki instinctively thought of Konohamaru and was immediately alarmed.

Although his contact with Konohamaru gave him benevolent thoughts regarding the Ninja World, his reason told him,

that a world as frail as a child like the Demon Slayer Continent would likely be swallowed whole if it ever encountered the powerful Ninja World.

No world lacks ambitious schemers like the Demon King.

"That is correct."

The Stone Hashira Gyomei Himejima described: "According to what Tanjiro said, he came into contact with a human named Raki."

"That world has no demons, but it has things called Yoma, which can disguise themselves as humans, fear no sunlight, and feed on human internal organs."

Kagaya Ubuyashiki grew more alarmed the more he heard,

fearing no sunlight and feeding on internal organs.

It does not sound like the Ninja World, yet it has monsters even more terrifying than demons; what a world suffering from the same plight.

However, Kagaya Ubuyashiki did not lower his guard because of this, and said sternly: "Dispatch members of the Demon Slayer Corps, along with two Pillars, and Tanjiro, who has had contact with the human from the other world, to the edge of the continent where the human from the other world was encountered."

"I will go as well, to have a proper exchange with that youth named Raki."

Although Kagaya Ubuyashiki was gentle, he was by no means pedantic.

Upon encountering unknown things,

one must first make contact and understand the specific intelligence, then decide on subsequent countermeasures, whether to oppose or cooperate.
