I unleashed a Hundred Demons Parade in the Ninja World

Task status: Not completed.

Time remaining until Itsukushima Barrier breaks: 10 days.

[Who, who can help me, help Itsukushima?]

Charge into the darkness,

Whichever path you choose, you will inevitably have to fight against the monsters that roam in the darkness.

The Uchiha clan members' immediate request upon Ara's return was to further improve themselves through battle.

Recently, both the attack on Hotaru and the excuse that the clan leader deliberately gave to protect the village, "He came alone, I went alone, it's fair," have deeply agitated the already sensitive nerves of this clan.

They yearn to become stronger.

Desiring to fulfill the promise made to the clan chief, he would stand before his comrades no matter what!

Therefore, the kind of experience they seek, such as the trip to Lieyan Mountain, is exactly what they want to gain.

As he learned that the day he would have to face the God of Destruction, Ashura, drew ever closer, Ara silently granted the request in his heart.

Because no matter what the outcome of that battle was, he could never protect the Uchiha clan or every comrade in the Hidden Demon Village forever.

It is better to teach people how to fish than to teach people how to fish.

The best approach is to empower those who follow you—your clansmen, companions, and subordinates—to become stronger and possess the power to deter other forces.

Therefore, for various reasons, Ara would not easily reject Shion's request.

"Every ninja in the Hidden Demon Village will protect their comrades; the ninja's crisis has never disappeared."

He gave a vague answer to the 'trap' set by the girl.

Of those on his side who knew about the shrine maiden's prophecy, only he and Izumi were aware of it, and he didn't want to cause his companions too much worry.

"Oh,"

"Really boring."

Seeing that her little act of revenge had not achieved the desired effect, Ziyuan subconsciously made a complaint, but she wisely did not continue to elaborate.

Just as the matter was about to come to an end, the guard beside the girl, as if having made up his mind, knelt down and pleaded with the local leader:

"Lord Yaoying, please allow me to stay here as well."

"For this, I can work and carry out missions for the Hidden Demon Village to pay for the permits and fees for staying here."

"Ashiho, you!"

This petition really caught Shion off guard, as she was still in the process of getting some bad guy into trouble!

"Didn't I say that?"

"I don't need you anymore, go back to the Land of Demons."

"Afterwards, will Lord Ara protect me, or do you consider yourselves stronger than Lord Ara?"

After calming her agitated emotions, Ziyuan reverted to her previous arrogant demeanor, seemingly trying to use her nasty personality to make the guards who had followed her disgusted and leave.

But she forgot that these guards who followed her were people who had received kindness from her mother, or whose families had received kindness from her. They were a group of loyal and righteous people who would give up their lives for her. How could they possibly give up their own will because of this trivial and arrogant emotion?

“We are naturally not as powerful as Lord Yaoying, but we can become a piece of ‘armor’ for Lord Ziyuan at critical moments. This is the will of all the brothers who came here on this trip.”

"Please, Lord Demon Shadow, would you allow me to do so?"

Without waiting for the increasingly exasperated priestess beside her to continue her scolding and sarcasm, Ashiho then made a request to the person in the main seat.

"Although the Demon Hidden Village is not large, it can still accommodate more people."

"There's no need to pay for accommodation; your abilities are sufficient to cover it, but you'll need to earn your own living expenses here."

Huang ignored Shion's eager gaze, which seemed to want him to reject the idea, and readily agreed.

After all, if he were left alone, he might become lawless because he relied on his prophetic power.

Having subordinates with whom you share a bond makes all the difference.

"Yes,"

"Thank you for your permission, Lord Demon Shadow."

Upon hearing this, Zu Sui responded in a deep voice.

Chapter 705 The Uchiha Will Not Be Defeated

After ignoring Shion's silent accusatory gaze, the incident of the Oni Kingdom delegation's visit came to a temporary end.

As the attendees gradually dispersed, only three people remained in the empty reception room: Ara, Shion, and Izumi.

Ara originally intended to continue concealing the matter related to death, but after meeting Izumi's unwavering gaze, his intention to keep it a secret was indefinitely put on hold, and he could only let her stay to listen to the prophecy of the Oni Kingdom's priestess.

"Tell me your prophecy."

His voice remained calm, showing no signs of tension or panic despite the prophecy of his death.

Besides, he had already died once, so being able to live another life and have the experiences and companions he has now is something he can be proud of.

"Oh, I thought Lord Yaoying didn't care about his own affairs at all."

Ziyuan's voice contained a hint of mischief, clearly indicating that this ill-tempered girl still harbored a strong desire for 'revenge' for the several setbacks she had just suffered.

Ara didn't seem uncomfortable about this, but Izumi, who was under the same roof, asked the special shrine maiden earnestly and impatiently:

"We would appreciate it if Miss Shion could tell us the details of your prophecy. In return, the Uchiha clan will do everything in its power to protect you and your subordinates from the monster invasion you mentioned."

Such a serious inquiry immediately caused the girl from the Land of Demons, whose face still held a hint of provocation and teasing, to lose her composure and reveal an unnatural expression.

She's the typical type with a sharp tongue but a soft heart.

Despite being kind-hearted, she was hindered by her identity, fate, and past, and invariably displayed a wicked and unapproachable demeanor.

Being asked and required in this way has left him feeling somewhat overwhelmed.

Not only did Ziyuan show surprise on her face, but Huang did too, a hint of helplessness mixed with a warmth that swallowed that helplessness.

He had mentally prepared himself for the high probability of being utterly defeated when facing the God of Destruction, Asura, and had even secretly begun making arrangements for his afterlife. But now...

A determined glint gradually filled his eyes.

Even if it's just to respond to Izumi's concerns, I need to be more serious.

"Respected priestess, I would be most grateful if you could tell me the details of my prophecy."

The words that followed made Ziyuan's already unnatural expression even more chaotic, and her gaze subconsciously followed the voice to the person who spoke.

The guy who was indifferent and uncompromising just a second ago can suddenly have a complete personality reversal!

Of course, she knew that it was definitely not her teasing or the so-called death threat that had any effect.

Because the change in the other person's tone occurred after the beautiful girl spoke!

Therefore, the Blood Demon who shook the entire ninja world might have bowed his head simply to ease the girl's worries.

But that's death!

The things I predicted were related to death!

How could this not cause people to worry?

It's worth noting that many residents of the Land of Demons even feel resentment towards this innate ability.

For a moment, Ziyuan suddenly regretted it. She realized that she shouldn't have acted on her willful nature and thrown out the prophecy as a bargaining chip.

At the very least, you shouldn't say such things carelessly in front of the other person's closest relatives.

However, once the arrow is released, there is no turning back. He no longer has the option to withdraw. Moreover, if it were him, there should still be a sliver of hope that he could withstand death.

After all, this was the strongest and strangest prophet he had ever seen!

"I really can't do anything with you guys. Since you've asked so sincerely, I'll kindly tell you!"

Ziyuan's tone remained arrogant, as did her expression.

But as she began to recount her prophetic dream, her entire demeanor suddenly became more subdued. Not only did she unconsciously close her eyes slightly, but her tone also became solemn:

"It was a place filled with darkness, almost devoid of any light,"

"The roars of various bizarre creatures mingled and lingered for a long time,"

"In the very center of the darkness, a creature resembling human was imprisoned within countless thick steel chains,"

“I can’t see His face clearly,”

"All we could see was Him sitting high on His throne, as if looking down over the entire dark world."

"That throne is made of countless bones,"

"He is the one who will kill you."

After a brief recounting, Ziyuan slowly opened her eyes. At this moment, two purple marks, like blooming flowers, appeared in her originally clear eye sockets, mysterious and captivating.

Quan's thin lips were slightly pursed, a cold and fierce glint flashing in her eyes, and her delicate hands under the table had unconsciously clenched into fists.

Of course, the killing intent he expressed was not directed at the priestess from the Land of Demons, but rather at Him, as mentioned by her!

It was precisely because Ziyuan sensed the murderous intent permeating the air that she stopped speaking.

She had no idea what terrifying things this girl, who had also awakened the legendary Mangekyou Sharingan in the intelligence gathered during the battle against Konoha, would do if she continued speaking.

Just as Quan was losing control of her emotions, a hand quietly landed on her clenched fist, gently patting it to comfort her and tell her not to get too agitated.

At the same time, Ara tentatively asked the shrine maiden in his field of vision:

"What you've seen must be more than that, right?"

After all, if the other party's view is limited to this, then it's not worth the long journey.

You can simply send guards to issue the request.

Upon hearing this, Ziyuan's face revealed a meaningful expression, as if the young leader before her was indeed more than just unparalleled in combat power.

Similarly, the riotous emotions of Izumi were gradually calmed down during this period.

She loosened her delicate fist and tightly grasped the rough hand that had come closer, their unspoken words conveyed through their body heat.

"Yes, the first time I saw it, I saw you being pierced through the chest by that guy with something that looked like a grotesque snake tail covered in barbs."
