Protagonist:
Zang Ye
Under the moonlight, the villagers all ran out.
All of them wore faces full of bewilderment, not knowing what had happened.
Suddenly, a gigantic palm fell from the sky.
Striking the entire small mountain, it shattered it in one blow.
"Ah..."
"It's a yokai!"
"Run..."
The villagers, terrified to the extreme, screamed and scattered in all directions.
At this moment, this gigantic palm revealed its full form — a ghostly monster taller than mountains.
Two horns grew atop its head, a long scar ran across its face, its visage fierce and malevolent.
Its whole body emitted a terrifying aura; it let out a furious roar.
The gigantic palm descended once more, its target precisely the house where Zang Ye and the others were staying.
"Lightning Strike!"
Only a loud shout was heard; a bolt of lightning released from within the house, enveloping the ghostly monster's hand, shattering the giant hand in an instant.
That ghostly monster taller than mountains howled in pain and retracted its severed arm.
At this time, several figures ran out from the room.
They were precisely Zang Ye, Kagome, Mage Miroku, Inuyasha, Shippo, and the others.
Looking at the ghostly monster taller than mountains, everyone's expressions were grave.
Miroku: "Was that tremor just now caused by him?"
Kagome: "This is way too big~"
Shippo: "So scary..."
Inuyasha drew Tessaiga, looking full of fighting spirit, "This guy, feels like I've seen him somewhere before..."
【Sign-in target detected: Red Oni. Sign in!?】
【Sign in!】
【Sign-in Success! Acquired Ability: Gigantification. Fuse!?】
【Fuse!】
【Fusion Success!】
A sharp glint flashed through Zang Ye's eyes; Gigantification — that is, equivalent to changing size, related to one's own Yoki; the stronger the Yoki, the larger one can become, and the stronger the power.
Similarly, although power becomes stronger, speed slows down considerably; this is the drawback of Gigantification.
"This ability counts as not bad..."
Zang Ye muttered to himself.
Suddenly, a streak of flame attacked from the night sky.
"Zang Ye! Watch out..." Kagome called out a warning.
A sharp glint flashed through Zang Ye's eyes; his figure retreated, withdrawing from the flame's range.
Only to see the spot where he originally stood had turned into a sea of fire.
Although there was nothing flammable, the blaze did not weaken much.
In the night sky above, a beauty with wavy curled hair, dressed in samurai attire, gripped a samurai sword in hand; the sword's tip still flickered with flames.
Only to see a look of surprise flash through her eyes as she looked below, "Actually dodged it..."
"Just now you were clearly distracted."
The corner of Homura-hime's mouth hooked into an intrigued smile.
"That woman..."
"Was that flame just now released from the sword in her hand?" Mage Miroku's expression was grave; it seemed the enemy was not just one.
Moreover, their strength was not comparable to ordinary yokai.
He placed his hand on the Seal in his right hand, considering whether to use the Wind Tunnel.
This scene was naturally noticed by Homura-hime; merely the corner of her mouth flashed a cold smile, and she tossed out a nest from her hand.
A swarm of palm-sized bees flew out from inside, surrounding Homura-hime like guards.
"That is..."
"Poison Insects!"
A grave look flashed through Miroku's eyes; whether Evil Qi or poisonous things, absorbing a certain amount into the Wind Tunnel his body definitely could not withstand.
Miroku's heart stirred slightly; the opponent had clearly come prepared, and had countermeasures ready for his Wind Tunnel as well.
"Those poison insects seem to be that woman's guards." A strange light flashed through Shippo's eyes.
"The sword tip can release flames, and this woman's gaze has been fixed on Zang Ye — what is going on!?" Kagome looked at Homura-hime in the air, a face full of doubt.
It seems this Homura-hime is specifically targeting Zang Ye.
"From your body, there's a familiar scent!"
"What relationship do you have with that Flame Bird!?"
Zang Ye raised his head, looking at Flame Princess.
It was obvious this woman was coming for him.
And the flame power on her body was very similar to that Flame Bird he had killed.
"Flame Bird?"
"What are you talking about, Half-Demon... Zang Ye!"
Flame Princess held her sword horizontally, and the flames once again became extremely intense.
"Isn't it!" Zang Ye felt very strange.
Could it be, that guy Naraku?
No, that guy Naraku is not a woman.
However, this Yokai does have Naraku's scent on her body.
Could it be, this is Naraku's doppelganger?
Zang Ye suddenly understood; all of this, if that were the case, could be explained.
"Die!"
Flame Princess shouted loudly, the flame on the tip of her Samurai Sword flickering with scorching light, turning into a fireball.
Seeing the huge fireball attacking, Zang Ye's gaze narrowed, his right hand extended and the Lightning Strike Blade appeared in his hand, the power of Lightning coiling around the Lightning Strike Blade.
His right hand gently swung, shattering the huge fireball.
"What..."
Flame Princess was greatly shocked; the attack she had launched with almost all her strength was casually caught by this Half-Demon.
"So strong..."
"Things seem not as troublesome as imagined."
Seeing Zang Ye was surprisingly strong, Miroku had no intention of using the Wind Tunnel in his heart.
At this moment, a patch of dark clouds drifted over from the sky.
Only to see Sesshomaru's right hand emitting a green light, leaping down from the sky, his target was Inuyasha.
Inuyasha retreated to dodge Sesshomaru's one strike of Poison Claws.
On the ground, where Inuyasha had originally been standing, was corroded by Sesshomaru's Poison Claws into a pit several meters in size.
"Sure enough it's you, Sesshomaru!"
Zang Ye narrowed his eyes; in an instant, many images flashed through his mind.
"I understand."
Zang Ye glanced at Flame Princess in the sky and said, "Let's go, let's change the place of our battle."
After speaking, Zang Ye holding the Lightning Strike Blade slowly left.
A strange look flashed in Flame Princess's eyes; just now in that instant, this Half-Demon seemed to have understood something.
Flame Princess waved her hand, and those Poison Insects guarding by her side flew toward the nearby mountains and forests, disappearing in the night.
She followed Zang Ye's pace, the two walking one in front of the other.
Until no figures of Kagome and the others could be seen around, Zang Ye then stopped his steps.
"Half-Demon, Zang Ye."
"No one else can be seen anymore, still want to leave!?"
Flame Princess glanced at the surroundings; it was quiet, with only the two of them existing.
Thus she asked casually.
"You are Naraku's doppelganger, right." Zang Ye turned around, looking at Flame Princess with a calm gaze.
Huh?
Shock flashed in Flame Princess's eyes, but it quickly turned into a smile, "You really are not simple..."
"That guy Naraku only met you once, it seems he did not reveal his name."
"Then how do you know him?"
Zang Ye scratched his head and said with a wry smile, "Sure enough, the Butterfly's wings have already flapped."
"For everything to return to normal."
"Are you prepared to be eliminated, Flame Princess!?"
Suddenly, Thunder Entanglement surrounded Zang Ye's body, and the whole person became very dazzling in the night.
A solemn look flashed in Flame Princess's eyes, "You really are scary, you Half-Demon."
