Chapter 495

In reality, he didn't understand at all.

The profundity of magecraft, without the Sky-Curtain to substitute for the experience, is not something that can be understood in a short time.

Touka Kirishima nodded and curled her lips into a smile: "As long as they appear, everything will be fine. That is the light of salvation after our human sublimation."

The light of longing on that face made Tsukimi and the others completely unable to understand.

What kind of existence could make this former S-rank ghoul show such an expression?

And... you're a ghoul, aren't you? What the hell do you mean "human"?

Tsukimi felt a headache.

Suddenly.

"The problem is..."

Kogoro Mouri, who had been chatting with the white-haired uncle Jiraiya about something with a lecherous expression, suddenly became solemn. He stood up and looked heavily at the flesh-and-blood sky above.

"... we don't seem to have that much time."

I don't know when it started.

The 【Evil God's Offspring】, which had been spreading quietly and seemed harmless—completely unlike the terrifying thing Lindow Amamiya described—had moved...

It was completely different.

As if the most terrifying and ferocious monster had awakened, before it even moved, an aura of absolute high-status radiated, and a suffocating pressure covered the entire scene indiscriminately.

It made everyone's hair stand on end, and they looked in terror at the "sky" that was slowly opening an eye that rolled around and around.

"Things are looking bad."

Yukino murmured.

This feeling was too familiar.

That was the unique life pressure belonging to the great life form known as a "God."

Could it be that this so-called Evil God's offspring is actually a part of a god?

But even if it's just a part, it's still an existence that transcends the human world. Unless that Glorious Knight borrows more power, or that Holy Spirit larva, Reinhard, might be able to rival it.

"If I run away now, it shouldn't matter, right?"

Kazuma frantically rubbed his hair.

Even if there were several Fifth Ranks, they would dare to deal with it by relying on joint magecraft with everyone present, but...

A monster like this, which is like a broken divine domain, is definitely not something they can handle; it's too far beyond their level.

"To be destroyed by something like this, the destruction of your world is not unjust."

Jiraiya patted Lindow Amamiya on the shoulder, looking at the eye in the sky overlooking the earth, his tone carrying a sense of resolution.

This kind of monster that transcends everything is no longer something the children present can handle.

In the Ninja World, perhaps only the resurrection of the Sage of Six Paths could deal with it.

However...

"I'll buy some time; everyone, evacuate as soon as possible."

Jiraiya's whole body was wrapped in blazing white electric light, and he took a step forward with the standard equipment of this mage.

"Mr. Jiraiya?"

The expressions of the others changed.

Although he is at the limit of the Fourth Rank and can challenge Fifth Rank demigods of other systems by relying on magecraft, but...

"Stop nagging, I am the Toad Sage, Jiraiya."

Jiraiya spoke in a tone that sounded like he was singing, his hands moving like phantoms, forming thousands of seals in an instant, and he casually pressed a palm to the ground.

"Sage Art: Wood Style: True Several Thousand Hands..."

Vibration.

The entire mountain, the entire land surrounding the mountain range, was shaking, as if it couldn't bear it, and cracks appeared one after another, forming huge fissures.

Subsequently...

A hundred meters to Jiraiya's right, a giant hand, a dozen stories high, grabbed the edge of the fissure.

A second, a third, a fourth... endless.

Jiraiya's forehead bulged with veins, squeezing out every bit of magic power, roaring with a ferocious expression.

"... King Buddha Reappears!!!"

The next moment, the earth shattered with a boom, and his figure rose suddenly.

A magnificent gray figure carried him higher and higher, rising continuously until he was overlooking the mountain range below, having soared into the clouds.

The man who built the Hidden Leaf, the myth of the Ninja World, his proudest ultimate technique—True Several Thousand Hands, and a magic-enhanced version at that—was now reproduced in his hands.

"King Buddha Reappears?"

One could almost hear magnificent music in their ears. Everyone looked in shock at the giant in the clouds, looking at the wooden Great Buddha that was a thousand meters tall.

That face, which should have been a Bodhisattva's, was vaguely familiar.

"... Luo... Brother Luo Shu?"

There was no mistake.

Although crude, many recognized that this was exactly the face of the man who had once summoned a ten-thousand-meter Buddha in Tokyo and hammered a great demon into outer space with one punch.

Jiraiya stood on the shoulder of the King Buddha.

His version of the True Several Thousand Hands was essentially magecraft, combined with the data of the True Several Thousand Hands and an analysis of that time when that person awakened the mountain magecraft.

There was no help for it; he didn't have the Wood Style bloodline, and the mystery of his Sage Art wasn't strong enough yet, so it was hard to say how much effect it would have.

Simple combination of spirit and energy (life energy, spiritual energy, natural energy) is just the basics in magecraft.

(After all, a certain Luo Shu created a system by combining all the systems of the surrounding world groups, and even the essence of the Evil God.)

"Could it be, could it be that he learned that move?"

The eyes of the others went straight.

If there was any magecraft they most wanted to practice, this move would definitely be in the top ten.

There was no help for it; a Gundam is a man's romance—the bigger, the better.

"It's not quite the same. That person's essence is awakening nature, personifying natural concepts as weapons; whether it's mountains, rivers, or oceans, it works. His is more like a summoned object."

But even so, this thousand-meter size is undoubtedly a Fifth Rank Upper-level method.

Lindow Amamiya and the others were already numb.

Originally, they were in despair because the Evil God's offspring had awakened, but it turns out you guys still have methods?

"Leave this to me."

A thousand meters in the air.

Standing on the shoulder of the giant Buddha, Jiraiya looked up at the flesh-and-blood sky, and the huge face beside him also looked up indifferently.

Although there was still some distance, it was no longer unreachable.

Immediately after, the hand, like a skyscraper, clenched into a fist.

One punch out.

Boom.

A range of several thousand meters was drawn into a vacuum at this moment.

Extreme light rose, like a blazing white sun, illuminating the world.

Under the terrifying impact, even the "sky" above seemed to have been pushed upward for a moment.

Only then did mushroom clouds spread toward the surroundings, and shockwave clouds rippled out in a ring.

Under the squeeze of this power impact, it even triggered a chain reaction of nuclear explosions.

Just like many terrifying meteorites that don't leave debris because they have already become raw materials for nuclear explosion reactions.

Even Jiraiya himself, who was casting it, was stunned for a moment, noticing that this power was clearly abnormal, and the source...

"Is that person's appearance also imbued with mystery? Just citing it causes a huge magic buff."

That is to say, if you dare to use his elements, that person is aware of it.

This is also the manifestation of "God cannot be looked at directly, and His name cannot be called."

Jiraiya couldn't help but break into a cold sweat.

Fortunately, he had always stood on the Buddha's shoulder during practice and didn't dare to stand on the head like a certain First Generation.

And apart from this emergency, every time he experimented with a small number, he bathed, burned incense, kowtowed three times and bowed nine times, and was respectful to the extreme.

But who knows, there might really be a chance.

Perhaps he really can hold off this half-dreaming, half-waking sub-god?
