Chat group: My Fist of the North Star will never lose!

Chapter 207: The Honest (Questionable) Miss Crow Tengu
Yakumo Shigan is definitely an expert at express delivery and handling - by someone who does not want to reveal his name.

Wow! Wow!
The continuous sound of water kept ringing in my ears.

Thick smoke was rising from the tops of the distant peaks, and the distant sky was light gray-black. If you smelled carefully, there seemed to be a faint smell of sulfur around.

That’s right, Yatsugatake is an active volcano, and after careful feeling, you can find that the mountain is filled with majestic water vapor that has both spirituality and vitality. There is a hint of burning in the water vapor, which can be said to be a combination of water and fire.

“So beautiful, family!”

Compared to the evil-filled Oeyama, which is a place where crazy primitive people live, Yatsugatake is at least several levels more beautiful. There are countless towering and lush trees, and the ground is covered with colorful fallen petals.

Beside them, there was a waterfall rushing down like a silk thread. A large amount of water flowed into the pool, and the turbulent water splashed constantly.

I don't know how deep the middle of the pool is, but the broken rocks and branches washed down by the waterfall will disappear in the water foam.

And at the very edge, which was the shore near their feet, the water was so calm and clear that you could see the bottom, which was made of cracked rocks like a turtle's carapace.

The huge pool is more than one mile long and wide, formed by pieces of hexagonal basalt left over from the cooling of the volcanic eruption.

The surrounding cliffs also seem to be cut by sharp blades to form hexagonal columns, which is a masterpiece of nature.

"Isn't this the Xuanwu Swamp? What are Kappa Heavy Industries and others doing?"

Although Tengu, like the demons, are found in various regions of the country, their whereabouts and legends are mostly found in certain mountainous areas and wild areas.

They have their own set of action patterns and codes of conduct, and have formed a strict social system with clear division of labor. They are more civilized than humans and other barbaric monsters.

However, since this place itself is a "secluded and locked mountain place", the outside world has no way of knowing whether all this is true, and only some rumors are circulating.

But the more civilized they are, the more arrogant the Tengu become, and the less willing they are to interact with the ordinary people living down the mountain, maintaining their own eccentricity and nobility.

The traditional Tengu who advocate seclusion from the world mainly live in various famous mountains and rivers, such as Mt. Atago, Mt. Kurama, Mt. Koya, Mt. Asama, etc. At this moment, the highest peak in Japan, Yatsugatake, which appears in front of Jagi, is the holy place for all Tengu!

Excuse me, I have to bother you first to answer some questions... Isn't Mount Fuji the highest peak in Japan? How come it became Yatsugatake?
——It was done by Konohanasakuyahime, the Goddess of Fuji and the Goddess of Cherry Blossoms.

The mountain god of Yatsugatake is "Ishinagahime", and she and "Kaiyahime" are sister gods. However, the friendship of "sisters" is pure plastic to gods. They may be close at the beginning, but...

It won’t last...for long...

Soon as expected, one day the two sisters were arguing about which was higher, Mount Fuji or Yatsugatake, and proposed connecting bamboos between the two mountains and filling them with water. As a result, the water flowed from Yatsugatake to Mount Fuji.

Kaiyahime, who lost, became furious and knocked Yatsugatake down to a lower altitude than Mount Fuji with one strike.

"This woman seems to be a little too extreme."

However, there is a reason to mention her at this time - the mastermind behind the postscript of The Tale of the Bamboo Cutter is Konohana Sakuyahime!

Hundreds of years ago, the Moon Princess Kaguya Houraisan who came down from the moon left behind an elixir of immortality. Due to various factors, the emperor at that time had to make the decision to destroy the elixir in the place closest to the moon, throwing away this hot potato...

The evil goddess Kaiyahime refused the emperor's request and persuaded the warriors escorting the medicine of Penglai to kill each other. At the cost of the death of an upright man, an immortal Penglai man was created by accident. In terms of blood relationship, the Penglai man who is now slaying demons in some corner is the ancestor of Youyouzi several generations ago - Fujiwara no Momoko!
The complexity of the matter is comparable to the appointment of prime ministers among the six kingdoms.

"No, sister, why didn't you call me when the Tale of the Bamboo Cutter happened?"

Jagi, who missed Kaguya's famous scenes and her fragile sister Hong, questioned the monster sage beside him with great sorrow.

"Is it my fault?" Yakumo Yukari pointed at her own face in disbelief, and was about to activate the "Realm of Waves and Particles" on this unreasonable guy, preparing to cover his face with barrage of bullets.

"and many more…"

Jia Ji raised his hand with a strange look on his face to stop him, and his expression changed, as if he had noticed something.

The sound of the wind was a little inconsistent with the flow of air. Although it was very faint, as if it had blended into the wind, it still could not be hidden from him... A hint of black flashed in the corner of his eye and disappeared in an instant.

“It looks like a crow’s feather?”

Yakumo Yukari asked uncertainly. The thing was moving so fast that even she could only see a little afterimage.

"Wrong, it's Crow Tengu!"

A nasty smile appeared on Jacqui's face.

A sudden chill surged up in Yakumo Yukari's heart, as if a monster was about to be in trouble.

Standing above the Yamabushi Tengu, White Wolf Tengu, Konoha Tengu, Cunning Tengu (bushi) and other low-level Tengu, which number probably tens of thousands, is the Great Tengu.

The Crow Tengu is below the Great Tengu and above the Low-level Tengu, a middle and high-level member of the clan. Its characteristic is... it is extremely good at flying!
As legends of speed, the strongest among them can break the speed of sound with just a flap of their wings, and the one that suddenly appeared in front of them just now was even faster than before.

"Ms. Crow Tengu in front, wait——!"

As soon as the word "wait" came out of his mouth, Jia Ji's figure disappeared from the spot.

“Bang!” “Bang!”

Although Jagi is tall and muscular, and appears to have short arms and legs, his speed increases to a level far exceeding the speed of sound under the power of his Thunderbolt Kick. He rushes out like a meteor, and even creates a faint white mist in the air.

As the second word "one" came out, Jia Ji's legs seemed to swell violently at this moment, and tremendous power exploded violently in the air, as if a strong wind that could block even his vision burst out from his toes, with an extremely powerful momentum.

Maybe it lacks agility and cannot last long, but it will not lose to any monster in a short-distance full-speed charge.

"--Down!!"

A large hand like an iron clamp broke through the wind pressure, stretched forward, and its five fingers were bent into claws.

Loud noises came from behind, and the subtle touch of the wings when the fingertips touched was transmitted to the brain. If time was slowed down, one could clearly see a girl's mouth opening little by little, her pupils shrinking slightly, and she let out a terrified and crisp scream while gasping for breath:
“Huh?! We’re gonna be caught!”
