I planted a sacred tree in Tokyo.

Chapter 455 This sword is just perfect for me!
The demon general was instantly killed.

This was something everyone expected.

That 'Demon General' could only swing the 'Murakumo-ga' around randomly, showing no skill whatsoever; it relied entirely on the 'Murakumo-ga's' own power.

Although the "Prison Dragon Strike" unleashed using the "Cloud Fang" is indeed very powerful, it can only scare ordinary experts: even if a true expert cannot block it, they can at least dodge it.

However, just as the Demon General was overwhelmed by the attacks of the crowd, and many experts were preparing to seize the sword:

A figure rushed into the center of the battlefield, where the aftershocks were still lingering, with uncanny speed, and grasped the hilt of a sword.

???

The same question arose in the minds of almost everyone, whether human, demon, or half-demon.

Who is this guy?

This is a boy dressed in a men's kimono. He looks ordinary, the kind of ordinary person who would go unnoticed in a crowd.

However, the one who could appear on this battlefield and seize the divine sword amidst a vast army—

How could he possibly be an ordinary person?

"Hey?!"

"Nezu Jinpachi, classmate?"

Even Kagome and the others, the only ones who recognized the other, were stunned.
This student is amazing! He managed to be the first to get the Cloud Fang right under the noses of so many Tiger-level experts.

"Kid, the divine sword is mine!"

A general clad in magnificent armor leaped forward, charging with chilling killing intent! With a swing of his katana, black mist billowed out, as if opening the gates of hell. A large number of black-armored warriors charged in, spears and swords in hand, ready to overwhelm their opponents.

In this world, the sword is revered, and the weapons of masters are all unique and wondrous.

For example, the 'Hundred Battles' weapon in this general's hand was forged from the skulls of one hundred warriors; when wielded, it was aided by the power of a hundred demons.
"A grain of rice's light,"

However, the boy who snatched the 'Congyunya' just sneered and slashed horizontally with his longsword.

"You dare to shine?"

Waaaaaahh ...

With that wave of his hand, the purplish-black aura surged dramatically.

Upon closer inspection, the sweeping purple-black aura was actually composed of thousands of skeletal warriors!
The 'Hundred Demons' on the general's sword were like candlelight compared to the surging purplish-black aura.

click,

The moment the two weapons clashed, the general's sword shattered instantly, and he was sent flying backward. Even though there was no one around him, countless crisscrossing sword wounds appeared out of thin air on his armor, and blood splattered everywhere!

brush,

The 'young man' who had severely wounded the general did not pursue him.
Instead, he twisted his wrist and, in an awkward posture, used the Cloud Fang to block the icy sword slashing from behind.

"Good speed,"

Without even turning around, the 'boy' pressed down with the Congyun Fang in his hand.

Click-clack

Amidst the shattering sound of the icy longsword, the cold beauty named 'Donglan' retreated and dodged, thus avoiding being tainted by the purplish-black aura.

"Miss!"

The other three 'Four Heavenly Kings of Leopard Cats' rushed over and stood with their eldest sister.

"Heh, don't be in such a hurry—"

The boy holding the 'Congyun Fang' looked calm, his eyes reflecting the gaze of someone in a high position who was used to looking down on others.

But now, he has to look up at the sky.

"Your Excellency, do you have any objections to me taking this sword?"

?

The 'natives' of this world would only find it incomprehensible, but the students mixed in with it would be shocked and chilled.

Is the other party seeking the opinion of 'that' person?

"He is not Nezu Jinpachi,"

Kakai-in Miroku immediately asserted...

If they were real students, they would never act like this.

Is he an extraordinary expert who infiltrated another world, or a powerful individual who has escaped from this world?
After a few seconds,

Amidst the astonished gazes of many humans, demons, and half-demons, the boy who snatched the 'Congyun Fang' grew his smile wider and wider, eventually turning into a wild, unrestrained laugh.

"Hahahaha~~"

"What's so funny?!"

One of the human generals couldn't help but question, "This guy is too strange. He seriously injured the Mori family's general with a single sword strike, and even the eldest sister of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Leopard Cats couldn't hurt him when she attacked him. This has made everyone afraid to make any rash moves."

"Of course, it's because 'that' lord isn't planning to make a move, and also—"

The boy, who called himself "Nezu Jinpachi," held a sword in one hand and covered his face with the other.

"This sword is perfect for me!"

Tear

With a forceful tug of his five fingers, he tore his own 'face' off!
Beneath that skin was a cute girl with a distinctive "Hime cut" hairstyle, typical of daughters of noble families.

The people of this world are already used to this person 'tearing off the mask': all sorts of monsters like to disguise themselves as humans to approach their targets.

But after looking at it carefully again and again, they still didn't recognize it.
"Nine, nine, nine"

"How is this possible?"

"It's Jiu Kong Yao Ai!!!"

People in this world may not recognize this face, but how could the 'students' who are immersed in it not recognize it?

"is her?"

Even Kagome exclaimed in surprise, instinctively raising her hand to cover her mouth.

How did this big shot end up in the demiplane?
"Kagome, who is this little girl?"

Kagome looked uneasy when she heard Inuyasha's question.

"Jiu Kong Yao Ai, the most wanted criminal in our world. Well, to put it simply, he is a criminal hunted by all the 'big names'."

If such a being can still be alive and kicking, it already proves its formidable strength.

? !
On the battlefield, everyone possesses extraordinary hearing. With a quiet explanation from within the crowd, most people finally understood:
"A vicious criminal?"

"The culprit that triggered the global crisis?"

"His strength surpasses that of a great demon; could he be a 'Demon King'—?"

Whether they knew about the existence of the 'main world' or not, everyone present already understood that the little girl in front of them looked cute, but was actually a terrifying monster!

"She wasn't controlled by 'Congyunya'?"

Following behind Kagome and the others, 'Wild Wolf' was surprised by something else entirely.

As a subordinate of the Great Dog General, Wild Wolf knew very well that only his master could subdue the 'Sōun-ga'; anyone else, whether human or demon, would be controlled by the sword simply by coming into contact with it. But this little girl...
"How could she possibly be controlled?"

Kakeruin Miroku sighed. As a member of the Kakeruin family, he knew that the power of Kukuyo Ai came from Yamata no Orochi!

The Murakumo-ga is forged from fragments of the 'Ama-no-Murakumo-no-Tsurugi'. In this case:

Not only will it not get out of control, but it will actually make it even more powerful!
“The natives of this world,”

"And the students!" Since that Youjun isn't going to make a move, Jiukong Yaoai has nothing to fear.

"Let me, Jiu Kong Yao Ai,"

"Let me show you the power of this sword—"

brush,

finished,

She magically swung Cong Yunya around in mid-air.

W-what do you mean?
This sword strike was silent and without any demonic aura. Just as everyone who was on high alert was filled with doubt:
"Huh? Aren't I dead?"

"What happened? Did I just faint?"

On the battlefield, the corpses of human soldiers and monsters stood up, looking at their bodies in confusion: they could move freely even though there was still blood and wounds.

"Where is this place?"

"Wow, so many humans!"

"My goodness, so many powerful demons—"

In addition, even the remaining undead legion led by the previous 'Ghost General' has become more agile from its dazed 'moving corpse' state.

However, these monsters, who had just 'awakened,' were terrified by the sight of the generals and great demons scattered on the ground.

???

"resurrection?"

"Such a large area"

This scene caused many humans and demons to gasp in shock.

Even in this world where the 'rules of the underworld' are loosening, it is absolutely impossible.

Only certain powerful demons can 'resurrect'; and at most one or two can be resurrected. The tens of thousands before us are already 'abnormal'!
"Hahahaha~~"

Holding the 'Congyun Fang', Jiu Kong Yao Ai burst into laughter again. After enduring so many times, finally, finally—

"Soldiers, servants, and monsters returning from the underworld!"

Holding up the Congyunya in her hand, the girl announced loudly.

"Obey your king's command!"

"king!"

"king!"

"king!"

Whether they were soldiers who had just gotten up, monsters, or minor demons and monsters who had been killed and enslaved by the 'Demon General', they all looked up to the sky and shouted in unison! The sound was earth-shattering, causing countless people to change their expressions drastically.

"You shall submit to me!"

"or--"

Surrounded by countless soldiers and monsters, Jiu Kong Yao Ai surveyed the surroundings.

"Wait until I kill you all, and then control your corpses?"

"Surrender!"

"Surrender!"

"Surrender!"

As Jiu Kongyao's voice fell to the ground, all the soldiers she had 'resurrected' slammed their guns down, their killing intent soaring to the heavens! The 'resurrected' monsters also unleashed their abilities: flames, ice, gales, and gigantification were all lurking menacingly, ready to tear apart anyone who dared to refuse.

In the hands of Jiukong Yao'ai, this 'Congyun Fang' can perform a wide range of 'Edo Tensei': not only does it retain the abilities of the person in life, but it also preserves their combat skills and intelligence!
There's no need to prepare offerings in advance; you can just use corpses. Strictly speaking, it's more like a ninjutsu combined with Earth Release: Ultimate Creation Technique: Soil of the Dead.

The weaknesses of both techniques were eliminated, and their strengths were combined.

Of course, the mandatory 'loyalty' to Jiu Kong Yao Ai is a necessary prerequisite.

"If you were to surrender, what would you do?"

A military officer slowly spoke.
Unlike the previous 'Demon General', this little girl in front of me is far more powerful!
It's not just their individual skill; their mastery of the 'Congyun Fang' is worlds apart.

"I won't do anything to you, as long as you fight for me!"

coming,

Amidst the expectant expressions of the many 'students,' Jiu Kongyao gritted her teeth and uttered that name:

"The enemy's name is Abe no Seimei!"

Tokyo,

College of Conjuration.

"Yu, aren't you going to make a move?"

In the principal's office, four beautiful girls looked at You.

"No need,"

You waved his hand. He had long been aware of Jiu Kong Yao Ai's existence. Since this young lady wanted to play the 'big boss', then so be it.

"That 'Congyun Fang' weapon is too complicated, let's just pretend we don't know anything about it."

After all, it is a fragment of the Kusanagi Sword, and not just anyone can touch such a thing: especially for certain 'status' beings.

"Understood,"

Nao was the first to nod; she had already 'figured out' the key points.

The others, however, remained completely bewildered.

Okay, I'll ask You tonight.

Unable to figure it out, Qiong Mei decided to directly ask for the 'answer'.

"Are we just going to leave Jiu Kong Yao Ai to fend for herself like this?"

Xiao Ying thought about it.
I still feel it's inappropriate.

"Won't she hurt the students?"

"And how did she infiltrate the 'demiplane'?"

"Don't worry, Jiu Kong Yao Ai isn't stupid."

Yu had already considered these issues.

"She won't harm the students in the demiplane; at most, she'll 'send' them out."

Unless Jiu Kong Yao Ai wants to test just how strong Yu is, who can defeat Abe no Seimei, then Yu will have no choice but to reluctantly take action.

As for how Jiu Kong Yao Ai infiltrated, she naturally used Orochimaru's—no, it was the secret technique of the Eight-Headed Serpent—to enter the demiplane: Don't be fooled by the fact that Miss Jiu Kong gets beaten up every day, her various bizarre abilities are unmatched by other extraordinary beings.

For example, besides her, who else in the entire extraordinary world could evade so many layers of detection methods at the High School of Curses?

After obtaining the 'Congyun Fang', Jiu Kong Yao Ai's weakness: combat power was also made up for.

Faced with a powerful demon king who is thick-skinned, indestructible, and wields a 'domineering sword', everyone in this demiplane, whether students or natives, has to fight 'hard'.

If they really can't win, they can just send 'a clone' to save the day.
