I planted a sacred tree in Tokyo.

Chapter 443 Love and Hate

Leaving aside a certain enthusiastic young lady,

They began to 'plot' how to bypass the Great Firewall and enter the demiplane.

In the 'Warring States Era', the battles between the various factions are raging, with monsters, humans, and even those who call themselves 'gods' almost all caught up in the flames of war.

In a small village, a large group of 'three-eyed wolf demons' rushed into the village. Their numbers were so great that no matter how hard the three figures tried, they could not stop them.

"Damn it, if only I hadn't been still recovering from serious injuries..."

Inuyasha, wielding the Tessaiga, can take down an opponent with a single strike.

Unfortunately, there were too many of these three-eyed wolf demons, and they couldn't kill them all.

Logically speaking, Inuyasha, a tiger-level expert with an extraordinary sword, should be able to easily crush these weak wolf-level demons like ants; however, a few days ago, his brother Sesshomaru suddenly came over and said a series of heartfelt words upon meeting him.

With a single claw, he pierced through Inuyasha, confirming that he had indeed not sent any 'assassins,' and then turned and left without hesitation, leaving Inuyasha severely injured.

It was precisely because of this crisis that Inuyasha felt he couldn't protect Kagome, so he simply took action to 'drive' her back.

Because Sesshomaru's poison can bypass the 'teleportation protection mechanism' and remain dormant to a non-lethal degree.

Then--

boom!
The other side of the battlefield suddenly exploded, engulfing several 'three-eyed wolf demons'.

"This won't work; we lack fire support."

Holding the 'Red Glow' weapon, Miroku of the Flower Garden Commander directed the head-sized 'Bumblebee' to fight the enemy while luring them into the trap he had set.

However, the number of traps was limited, and his most powerful 'bumblebees' were actually countered by the opponent: these three-eyed wolf demons looked like flesh and blood monsters, but they were not. They were 'demon power wolves' created by a certain demon general and were not afraid of poison.

The real monster is:

"Ugh, my head hurts so much!"

Outside the village, a monster with a large head and small body, a round face and big eyes, whose 'wolf' shape could barely be discerned, was howling in agony, clutching its head.

On his forehead, a fleshy bud was constantly wriggling; it was this fleshy bud that caused the wolf demon general named 'Wolf Demon' to come and attack Inuyasha—this wolf demon actually had quite a connection with Inuyasha, as he was once a subordinate of the Great Dog General.

However, many of Inuyasha's former subordinates did not recognize him as the 'half-blooded second son'.

"Stop drilling! Stop drilling!"

"I'll just kill Inuyasha—"

Wearing Warring States period armor and sporting a large wolf head, 'Wolf Wild Dry' opened his mouth once more: large packs of three-eyed wolf demons pounced out of his mouth.

"You shouldn't have 'sent' Kagome back,"

More wolf demons rushed in, putting the village's small defenses in grave danger.

"Long-winded!"

Upon hearing Miroku's words, Inuyasha turned and shouted:

"Grandma Feng, couldn't you just kill him with one arrow?"

The old woman, who was diligently drawing her bow and shooting an arrow, couldn't help but roll her eyes.

"I'm almost sixty years old."

Shoot down the demon general?

Not to mention now, it would have been almost impossible for her even when she was younger.

"Tsk, in Kagome's world, an ordinary old man who's almost sixty can still run and climb over walls. You at least have spiritual power, so you can't?"

While slashing at the wolf demons charging at him, Inuyasha spoke with displeasure.
For some reason, I suddenly thought of that woman at this moment.
"Inuyasha, what's going on here?"

???

The familiar voice made the three of them turn around abruptly and see a middle school girl running towards them with a bow and arrow in her hand.

"You...you're back again?!"

"I'm so glad you're alright! Now's not the time to talk about this—"

call out,

Kagome loosened her grip, and the arrow flew out, sparkling with tiny lights—a truly beautiful sight.

However, wherever the light touched, the three-eyed wolves were instantly torn apart and vanished. This was Kagome's ability in this world: the Demon-Slaying Arrow.

Its power is greatly reduced when dealing with human superhumans, but it is like a natural enemy when dealing with other superhumans!
It is an extremely specialized attack.

"Never mind these wolf demons, the real leader is that big-headed one!"

With a single arrow, a long gap was created in the battlefield. Inuyasha pointed at the demon general in the distance who was wailing while holding the 'big head'.

"Ok?"

"Something's wrong with him; it looks like there's something on his head."

Kagome, being an archer, immediately recognized the large-headed wolf demon; something was wriggling on its forehead. Therefore:
call out---

The arrow flew out again, instantly hitting the enemy's forehead and causing the demon general to stagger.

"It missed?"

Seeing that the other party only had 'superficial injuries', Inuyasha was taken aback.

"No, it's resolved."

Since they are both 'modern people', Miroku Keikain is more likely to guess Kagome's plans.

really:

"Huh? It doesn't hurt anymore!"

The wolf demon general, with a round face and big eyes, who looked 'simple-minded', touched his forehead.

The 'flesh bud' controlling him had been destroyed by the 'Demon-Slaying Arrow,' and although he had suffered some minor injuries, these were completely insignificant to the demon.

"Hahaha, thank goodness the priestess's arrow missed! Farewell—"

"and many more!"

Kagome called out to the other person.
"Was it a guy named 'Naraku' who sent you?"

?

"You know Naraku too?"

The wolf demon general named 'Wolf Wild Dry' was furious at the guy who controlled him with flesh buds.

"That bastard actually forced me to fight for him!"

"Although I also dislike Inuyasha, that guy who disgraced the master, but—"

"Huh?! Say that again!!"

Inuyasha, equally enraged, drew his sword and charged.

"calm down."

Miroku quickly pulled Inuyasha back, as this 'teammate' was seriously injured;
Moreover, the opponent seems to be able to communicate now. If we rush in and continue fighting, wouldn't that be pointless?
More importantly:
"Higurashi-kun, what brings you back?"

According to the 'rules', once someone is eliminated, they are not eligible to enter the 'other world' again.

Allowing these students to cultivate here and pursue their opportunities was already a capricious decision by that 'principal'.

"We'll talk about that later, Inuyasha."

Kagome rushed back because:
"Watch out, Naraku has hired the 'Seven Men' to deal with you and Sesshomaru!"

?

But I didn't.

Inuyasha was taken aback, then suddenly realized.

"I understand, those mercenaries encountered Sesshomaru first!"

No wonder that damned Sesshomaru suddenly appeared and stabbed him in the heart without saying a word; he was assassinated by mercenaries.

Tsk, why didn't they kill him!

"Um, may I go now?"

The wolf demon general with a round face, 'Wolf Wild Dry,' raised his hand in a gesture, looking rather dim-witted.

"Why are you leaving? You're being controlled by Naraku, don't you want revenge?"

"In no mood!"

However, 'Wolf Wild Dry' shook his head without hesitation.

No, the demon is self-aware; if he could defeat Naraku, he wouldn't have been controlled.

"No, you want!"

Kagome drew her bow and nocked an arrow; the power to ward off evil shimmered on the arrow.

"Choose one: join us in fighting Naraku, or atone for attacking the village."

Is this a choice?

"Damn Naraku actually controlled me! As a former subordinate of Inuyasha, if I don't avenge this humiliation, I, 'Wolf King,' will not live up to my title of 'Wolf of Hell'!" Kagome couldn't help but tilt her head and glance at Inuyasha as she watched the wolf demon general with the big head clench his fist and swear.

"What's that look in your eyes?"

“I’ve been with my mother since I was a child, and I don’t know these idiots!”

"In any case, let's exchange information first."

Kakai-in Miroku sighed.
These two clowns, I'll forgive them because of their formidable strength.

Hmm, it seems like we've got another 'troublemaker'?
As his gaze swept over the goofy 'wolf,' Miroku began to feel a little worried about his journey in 'another world.'

Is it really okay to team up with these guys?

the other side,
Yukino Satsuki, holding the long spear 'Snow Bone', stood in front of a fresh mound of earth.

The mound had no tombstone, just a simple stone: a characteristic of this era, since most people were illiterate.

Moreover, the owner of the tomb was not the kind of person who would be worshipped.

However, there was a tooth on the stone.

Human canine teeth!
"Was it the teeth of the Fiend that he left for me?"

Yukino Satsuki never said whether she could return to this world, so this unusually large canine tooth could only have been left to her by her companions.

He picked up the canine tooth from the stone and carefully placed it in his bosom.

The high school girl took out a fruit with cloud-like patterns.

Devil Fruit!

This fruit can enhance the user's physical constitution and possesses an extraordinary allure to any extraordinary being.

"Do you want this fruit?"

The girl held up the 'Devil Fruit' in her hand.

Shashasha~~
A commotion arose from the surrounding tangled woods.

Various little demons and monsters hid behind the trees, secretly observing with a mixture of greed and fear.

These little monsters are just as strong as ordinary people, and their terrifying appearance might frighten passing merchants; but the woman in front of them is a 'warrior', and the long spear in her hand exudes a chilling aura. Killing them will be no more difficult than killing chickens.

But that fruit
I want to eat!
This was purchased by Yukino May at a great cost, and its purpose is:
"I need an assistant who is good at finding people."

"Whoever can help me find them, this fruit will be theirs."

Buzzing

The commotion in the woods grew even greater, but the little monsters remained fearful: once they gained intelligence, they naturally learned to seek advantage and avoid harm.

They also know that birds die for food!
"Hey, are you serious?"

A pot-bellied, one-eyed monster emerged, looking powerful and seemingly quite strong.
"Of course, I will never break my promise."

Yukino Satsuki extended the 'Devil Fruit' she was holding forward.

"Only if you help me find those who fought here."

"no problem,"

The one-eyed monster nodded and twitched its nose.

"You're looking for a 'person,' right?"

After seeing Yukino Satsuki nod, the one-eyed monster took a step forward.

"Six people left from here. Come with me."

The other party did not ask for payment immediately, perhaps due to confidence in their 'strength', or perhaps for other reasons.

Anyway-

One human and one demon
And so began their journey to find the 'Seven'.

After most of the day:
"Uh, the smells are all mixed up."

The one-eyed monster shrugged and stood in front of a pile of ruins.

In Yukino Satsuki's eyes, the buildings were reduced to fragments and debris, the battlefield was filled with huge craters and charred black; everywhere there were traces of corrosion and slashing.

The slashes, stretching tens of meters, were left by Savage Bones; the crescent-shaped marks were proof of Snake Bones' battle; and the deep craters from the explosions were naturally from Silver Bones!
She paused, then squatted down and dug her five fingers directly into the soil.

"What's this?"

The one-eyed monster walked over and looked at the steel wreckage in the girl's hand with a puzzled expression.

"armor?"

"No, this is..."

A part of Silver Bones!

Taking a deep breath, Yukino Satsuki stood up, her hands and feet trembling slightly.

With Bankotsu being so strong, and the others being very powerful as well, there won't be any problems!

“There is an aura here—”

当、

The 'Snow Bone' spear in her hand fell to the ground, and Yukino Satsuki staggered toward the mound of earth in front of her.

On top of the mound, a stone is placed as is customary.

"Silver Bone, you too."

have they gone?
On the stone lay half an iron face, the face of a silver bone.

Cluck cluck,

His clenched teeth were making a grinding sound.

The girl reached out her trembling hand and picked up the cold iron faceplate.

"Are you... are you alright?"

The one-eyed demon took a step back in fear. Even as a demon, he could clearly sense the sorrow and killing intent emanating from this woman!
"I'm fine!"

Yukino Satsuki turned around, lowered her head, and walked back to where the 'Snow Bone Spear' had fallen.

Pick up the weapon,

"continue!"

".good,"

It was clear that the one-eyed monster was starting to regret his actions.

A day later, he regretted it even more.

"This is impossible?!"

It was another new battlefield, half a mountain had been shattered; and at the end of this battlefield, Yukino Satsuki saw the most unbelievable scene.

A small mound of earth, and:
A curved knife stuck in front of a mound of earth.

Its name is 'Snake Bone'!
"Fake,"

"It's definitely fake!"

With Snake Bone's agility, even if he can't win, he can still run away. This is a joke, just a joke, right?
puff,

Rushing forward anxiously, she pulled the snake bone knife from the ground. Yukino Satsuki's face was as pale as the spear in her hand.

That's right, this is indeed a genuine 'snake bone knife'.

So in the mound of earth—

"Ah ah ah ah ah!!!"

The spear in her hand suddenly pierced the small mound of earth. Amidst screams of anger, despair, resentment, and frustration, a burst of white, icy energy erupted from the spear! The ground was instantly covered with frost formed from the air, and the white even spread along the girl's skin, dyeing her black hair.

"Yeah~~"

The screams behind her made the girl turn around. Her cold pupils reflected a child who had fallen to the ground in a cloud of smoke.

No, it's not a child. Judging from that fluffy tail and big ears, it is:

Little fox spirit?
"No, don't kill me!"

"I don't want the fruit anymore, I can't die, I still want revenge—"

"Give,"

Drawing her spear, Yukino Satsuki knelt down in front of the terrified little fox spirit and handed it the 'Devil Fruit' to it.

"This is the agreed-upon payment."

"Please help me continue searching for the remaining people, please."
