Chapter 642: The way forward for Toru~The cowardly Takigakure Village
Swish~Swish~
In the depths of the dense forest in the distance.
Four figures moved quickly in the rapid sound of breaking through the air~
The derived sound waves rustled the ancient trees around.
"Senior Kakuzu~"
"Hasn't the Emperor already said that we are strictly forbidden to interfere in this matter?"
"If we act on our own and are discovered by the Emperor, it will probably not be good."
The people who came~
It was the official sequence of the Guixu organization, Kakuzu, Hatake Sakumo, Fuutoin Ryugetsu... and Biwa Juzo, who seemed to be the weakest among all the official members.
Unlike Kakuzu and Hatake Sakumo's indifference~
Biwa Juzo's face was almost twisted into a wrinkle.
"Juzo, you guy, when can you change your indecisive nature?"
"Even if your timid nature restricts your future."
"That's why your strength has been at a bottleneck for a long time~"
Glancing at Biwa Juzo, Kakuzu seemed to be angry at him for not fighting.
At the same time~
The speed of his feet seemed to be a little faster!
"Juzo, Kakuzu-san is right~"
"You, it's time to change your temper."
"Otherwise~"
"You might be replaced by the newcomers of Nan Tianmen..."
"As an old member of the organization, if I am replaced by a newcomer and go to Nan Tianmen, it would be a shame~"
Although there was a bit of ridicule in Hatake Sakumo's voice.
But from the bottom of my heart~
It's still for the good of Biwa Juzo.
After all, humans are different from beasts... They are more intelligent and emotional creatures.
From the perspective of Kakuzu and Hatake Sakumo, the first two sequences of Guixu.
For the development of Guixu~
They do not exclude new and powerful new members from joining the organization.
But~
They also don't want these "newcomers" to step on the shoulders of those familiar companions.
"Don't worry~"
"If the sky falls, I, Kakuzu-san and Fuuchoin will support it~"
"Speed up, if you are slow, you may not be able to catch up."
...
The Land of Demons
When the news reached the Land of Ghosts~
A black-haired boy, carryingThe sharp sword, as if it had made some important decision, appeared on the shrine maiden's palace with a solemn look.
"Tetsu~"
Looking at the handsome boy in front of him.
Miroku above, and Shion, who has been recognized by the whole country of ghosts as the next shrine maiden candidate and is currently familiar with the things that the shrine maiden has to deal with, stood up one after another.
Totsu!
The boy named Totsu can appear here openly.
Only that person~
The blood born by Fujiwara Tetsuya and Miroku.
"Mother~"
"Sister Shion!"
"I have decided that I will go to Taki Country."
"No matter whether my strength can help, I, who has the blood of the Fujiwara clan flowing in my body... I can't sit idly by and watch my father and brothers fall into danger."
"Even if I have to pay for it with my life!"
But in the past nine years~
Fujiwara Tetsuya has come to the shrine maiden's palace more than once.
In addition to relieving Miroku's lovesickness, more... is for Totsu.
However~
Because of Totsu's identity, he cannot appear in public.
So the relationship between Fujiwara Tetsuya and Toru, strictly speaking... is not like that between him and Huotou and Arashi, there is no barrier or gap.
But it is precisely because of this~
that Toru longs for this relationship even more, and longs even more... that one day, he can be like the brother and sister he has never met.
Under the name of Fujiwara, he appeared in the ninja world.
The firm and low voice continued to echo in the empty hall.
Facing those dark eyes~
Miroku and Shion also felt Toru's will.
"It seems that you have a considerable awakening, Toru~"
As a mother~
Miroku's mood is quite complicated.
There is the uneasiness that Toru is about to embark on a long journey~
There is also the satisfaction of Toru's current growth, and the expectation for the distant future.
"I understand~"
"I agree to your request!"
After a long silence~
Miroku finally nodded.
"But~"
"You must promise me one thing!"
"Because of the position of the Demon Country~"
"This time, the Shrine Maiden Hall cannot send forces to support you~"
"Everything depends on you!"
"Promise me that no matter what happens, you must survive and come back to me alive."
Due to the improper relationship between Fujiwara Tetsuya and Miroku~
The Demon Country~
also achieved unimaginable development under the secret support of Fujiwara Tetsuya.
Compared with nine years ago, the national strength has increased several times.
However~
The existence of the shrine maiden.
It is destined to do one thing~
That is, no matter how powerful the Demon Country has, it cannot directly interfere in the disputes in the ninja world.
Otherwise~
It will lead to the backlash of the rules and bring unknown disasters to the Demon Country.
"Hi~"
"I promise you!"
Tap tap...
Accompanied by the back of Toru going away, Miroku seemed to be drained of strength and fell back again.
As a mother, the fluctuations in her heart are obviously not something that can be calmed down in a few words.
…
Outside the Shrine Maiden Hall~
When Toru took off his gorgeous clothes and appeared in an ordinary samurai uniform.
Under the cover of the night~
More than ten black shadows suddenly appeared.
"Master Toru~"
"We have been waiting here for a long time."
These people who suddenly appeared were not samurai, nor were they maids of the Shrine Maiden Hall.
They were wandering ninjas that Toru had gathered in the past few years.
Although Toru also had the power of the shrine maiden in his body~
but it was different from Shion!
After careful consideration, Toru chose to embark on the path of ninja.
These wandering ninjas may be attracted by Toru's status in the Land of Demons, or impressed by Toru's strength...
In short, in one sentence!
These people may have uneven strengths, the strong ones have the strength of elite jonin, and the weak ones are only the bottom chunin, but they are absolutely trustworthy.
"On the mountain, and everyone, I have to trouble you this time."
Looking at the crowd, Toru's eyes wandered a little, and finally became more determined than ever before.
"Hehe~"
"Lord Toru, I'm surprised you said that."
"It's just Taki Country..."
"Besides... we are also looking forward to seeing the battle between that person and Akatsuki."
"With Lord Toru here, we won't frown even if we go to hell."
"You're right, guys!"
Accompanied by Toru's shouting on the mountain~
The sleeping beasts were instantly awakened from their well-fed and warm dreams~
The low and melodious roars seemed to be cursing the humans who had just disturbed their sleep.
...
That's right!
The Akatsuki chose Taki Country as the place for the battle.
A country with extremely complex terrain, full of mountains, rivers and waterfalls.
Just as Kakuzu and Toru...were heading towards Taki Country from all directions~
In the ninja world, countless forces also began to move towards Taki Country.
Faced with the surge in pressure, Takigakure Village, which stood at the forefront of the second echelon, directly announced the closure of the village.
Obviously, they are afraid that someone is secretly taking advantage of the situation and leading Takigakure to destruction in this rampage.
