This road leads to the area where Enmusubi Shrine is located.
........
........
When Arakawa and Izumi arrived at the Ōeyama region, it was already dusk of the second day.
The sunset was like blood.
It lies half-submerged on the edge of the horizon, seemingly silently reflecting something.
The sounds of various weapons clashing and the roars of living beings echoed for miles!
Surface sedimentation
Death is like the wind.
The whole world seemed to have fallen into bloodshed.
But for Huang, this cruel reality is something to be thankful for.
These intertwined, shrill sounds meant that the battle between Mount Oe and the Genji clan was not over, and his arrival was not too late.
Even so, Ara dared not pause or be negligent. Ignoring the small battle circles around him, he directly carried the battle blade imbued with the power of [Mimi Kirimaru] and crossed the meat grinder in one straight line.
The barriers encountered were cleaved down with a single strike, and all obstacles were suppressed with sheer force.
There was no entanglement, no harm was done to any human or monster, and several battles were even temporarily halted due to the interference of his [spiritual pressure].
Along the way, high-end combat forces from both sides came directly at him.
However, the flexibility of his ninjutsu and Mimi-kirimaru's unique demon-slaying power left the Onmyoji and yokai who tried to stop him with nothing but dust in their wake.
However, as they advanced deeper into the Great Eoe Mountains, just before reaching the central battlefield, Ara finally encountered a significant obstacle.
She slowly emerged from the shattered remains of the corpses, her simple yet distinctive armor stained with the blood of demons, her long katana trailing behind her as she moved forward.
What's most striking are her reddened eyes, which aren't filled with the madness and bloodlust of someone like Kidomaru, but rather with helpless struggle and unconcealed pain.
This bizarre contrast gives the impression that the killings here were not their true intentions.
"Humanity?"
As they scrutinized each other, a suppressed voice was the first to escape from the female warrior's mouth.
And without waiting for the two intruders standing in her line of sight to answer, she continued:
"Those who are not involved, please leave."
There was no room for discussion in his cold, clear voice.
The fact that Ara and Izumi are human is likely the reason why this female warrior belonging to the Genji clan did not directly confront the two people before her.
Equally intriguing is that this tall woman, exuding a bloodthirsty aura, possesses a human face, and her armor bears the Sasara-Danshiro crest, a mark of the Minamoto clan. However, the aura emanating from her is overwhelmingly that of a yokai!
"It's her? But she seems to be in a lot of pain..."
Izumi clearly recognized the female warrior who exuded a strong aura of killing intent.
Previously, when they went to Kyoto to buy souvenirs for the god of foolishness, they happened to see the Minamoto clan going to war, with the enemy walking at the forefront of the expeditionary force.
Moreover, some related information also circulated among the onlookers: he had single-handedly chopped all the monsters that were ravaging a human town into pieces!
"Um,"
"Her name is Yaodao-hime, and she is a weapon of the Genji clan."
Huang responded softly to his lover's words beside him.
"weapon?"
This striking word immediately caught Quan's attention.
She savored the particular adjective softly.
As ninjas, they were, in a sense, also weapons for their mercenaries.
Especially since our side comes from the Uchiha clan, who possess the special bloodline limit, the Sharingan, they have been weapons sought after by various forces since the Warring States period.
Logically speaking, a loved one should not show too much emotion.
However, Quan sensed a hint of sympathy and pity in Yu Zhi's tone and expression.
"Is it the same weapon as Gaara's?"
Suddenly, she thought of something, and with a slight parting of her teeth, she blurted out the name of Little Shukaku.
"kindness,"
"She was originally a pure human like us, but because she was able to sense energy fluctuations in space more acutely, she was transformed into a half-human, half-demon combat weapon by the Genji clan using a special technique."
Ara briefly mentioned the current situation of the Demon Blade Princess, and it was fortunate that Izumi was able to immediately think of using the 'Jinchūriki' in the ninja world as an analogy.
However, unlike most Jinchūriki who are ostracized by their villages and subsequently develop a dark side.
"She has always been weary of killing, but the spells etched into her body cannot be disobeyed."
In that short time, the girl in sight had already placed her hands on the hilt of the great katana, and at the same time, a crazy intent that was completely opposite to her quiet temperament burst forth in every inch of her movements.
Clearly, it was the technique imprinted in his body that was at work.
Her master has given the order to kill any unrelated intruders.
This command is one that cannot be disobeyed on its own.
Her shoulders and arms trembled, her expression one of grief, and the long, slender katana was already held before her by the demon sword princess.
Even though the spell's command had been given, she still restrained herself and delayed with her own will.
There were even simple, warning-like words that he struggled to utter:
"Please, stay a little, away from me..."
No sooner had she finished speaking than Yaodao-hime swung her battle blade towards the intruder's direction.
Suddenly, Huang felt an unusually sharp gust of wind sweeping across his face!
This is an attack faster than Kidomaru's chains and sharper than Kamaitachi's wind blades!!
The stench of blood, as if carrying mountains of corpses and seas of blood, made one's nerves pound.
Stay away from it.
For the average person, this is absolutely the wisest choice!
If Ara were to encounter her elsewhere, he might choose to deal with her and seize the opportunity to help her escape the fate of being completely controlled by the Genji clan.
Just like when they rescued Hakuzosu.
But right now, it doesn't have time to confront them.
The Demon King of Mount Ooe is the most valuable option right now!
"Go around."
The moment the words left his mouth, Huang took a step back, intending to use the ninja's Body Flicker Technique to break through the defense after creating distance.
But at that moment, Izumi unusually disobeyed his lover's orders, not only going against the grain but also directly charging forward with a kunai.
"Keng!"
In the blink of an eye, their weapons clashed.
Judging from the current battle situation, Izumi is at a disadvantage, and this disadvantage is constantly expanding as the power of the Demon Blade Princess is applied!
This stark difference is not only due to the qualitative difference in the weapons they use, but also because Izumi is more adept at using shuriken techniques at a distance than in close combat!
But Yaodaoji is different; her combat prowess was honed through countless bloody battles!
No matter how much she abhorred fighting and hated killing, those combat skills had completely seeped into her bones and could not be erased!
"spring!"
Although he didn't know why, upon seeing this scene, Huang immediately drew his sword and stepped forward, intending to help his lover.
No matter what Demon King or the assistance of Mount Ooe, it's not as important as Izumi!
But at that moment, a stubborn and firm voice escaped from the girl's lips.
"Leave this to me!"
Even as her opponent continued to increase the pressure on her kunai, she showed no sign of retreating and even resisted Ara's assistance.
"Trust me, I'll be alright!"
"She'll be alright too."
Upon hearing this, Ara slowed his movements slightly, realizing that Izumi meant to use his own power to stop, and even save, the poor woman who had been turned into a weapon by the Minamoto clan using magic.
"I see,"
"I'll be waiting for you up ahead."
After saying that, he sheathed his blade as instructed and darted past from the side of the battle circle.
Yaodao-hime is very strong.
In a direct confrontation, Izumi is indeed at a disadvantage.
However, since he hasn't used the Mangekyou Sharingan, which is unique to the Uchiha clan, he can't be said to have lost!
Most importantly, Izumi was his lover.
Trust is the only thing it needs to do!
【Thanks. 】
With silent thoughts running through his mind, Izumi once again confronted the opponent who was constantly exerting terrifying pressure on him.
She was so strong, yet so fragile.
So fragile that they cannot control their own will, nor can they escape the mark that governs their destiny.
it's fine.
"I will help you get rid of it."
As the murmured words began, a pair of jet-black windmill engravings slowly began to rotate in his eyes.
