I unleashed a Hundred Demons Parade in the Ninja World

The young Yugakure ninjas standing on the rooftop also looked bewildered and at a loss, as if they were trapped in an endless nightmare, unable to wake up and forever in a daze.

This world, this land, and our departed ancestors ultimately did not live to see the day when they rose up and were revived.

Meanwhile, Masato Taniguchi walked alone slowly toward the ancestral hall that stood not far away, watching over the village.

He was going to apologize.

The dark purple barrier that enveloped the entire area was inexplicably dispelled when the old man uttered the word "disband," and the gray sky reappeared in sight, pouring out an oppressive atmosphere that made it hard to breathe.

Tonight, the people of this land are destined to be sleepless.

.........

The flickering lights illuminated the daimyo's mansion in the land of hot springs.

That night, or rather, for the past few nights, this place, which should have been the most solemn and majestic in the Land of Hot Springs, remained trembling with fear, as if walking on thin ice.

Even those nobles who had previously looked down on and angrily denounced the Uchiha as nothing more than dogs of Konoha, who, no matter how crazy, had to obediently listen to their masters, became terrified and cowered in fear.

Because it is quiet,

The whole environment is just too quiet!

The turmoil caused by Uchiha Ara in the Land of Hot Springs should have already been relayed by the spies and sentries hidden in the city.

But even today,

Until the third night after the incident,

Neither Konoha, the owner of that mad dog, nor the thugs who were driven out, nor their backers, set any example by issuing any recall notice!

The entire Land of Hot Water seems to be isolated from the outside world. Even if there is a sudden change of dynasty within the country, or even if the entire capital is emptied overnight, probably no one will know.

Of course, this could also be psychological, since only three days have passed since that night, and it is reasonable that there has been no significant news or action from behind the scenes.

But as long as that guy, as long as that mad dog is still in the city, they will never have true peace!

The only thing to be thankful for right now is that tomorrow is the deadline that Uchiha Ara has announced for his departure.

Everything will then return to its original state.

Even if the entire city were to return to a state of fragmentation and rampant thugs, it would still be better than the present situation where we don't even dare to breathe loudly!

However, they also knew that...

If that guy wants to cause any more trouble, then only tonight, on this dark, starless, and moonless night with the sky full of dark clouds!

"Hey, you guys, can you smell something?"

Suddenly, one of the guards who was stationed outside Daming Prefecture sniffed the air and said with a suspicious look.

"Taste? What does it taste like?"

"No, I smell it too, it seems so, it seems so!"

Upon being reminded, the soldier on guard duty suddenly cried out, and the peculiar and somewhat nauseating smell was like...

"is blood."

Just as the excited soldier was about to blurt out what was on his mind, a serious and relatively steady voice behind him interrupted him.

"Boss."

Upon seeing the owner of the voice, the guards standing watch outside the Daming Prefecture immediately greeted him respectfully.

However, the newcomer paid no attention to such etiquette, but looked south with a worried expression. The thick, bone-deep smell of blood was getting stronger and stronger!

Or to put it another way, it's getting closer and closer to Daming Prefecture!

What made it even more unsettling was the eeriness of the surroundings, even though it was late at night and this was a western district that ordinary people rarely ventured into.

However, some powerful and wealthy people also live in this area.

They also kept some vicious guard dogs in their mansions, and even under normal circumstances, those dogs would bark incessantly, taking advantage of their owners' power.

But today, those beasts are unusually quiet.

Especially with the overwhelming stench of blood almost filling the nostrils!

"Tell all the brothers to stay ready for battle."

"If you can get through this night, everything will be fine."

After exploring the quiet, deserted streets, Yokoyama Ryū's unease grew even stronger.

However, all he could do was encourage his subordinates to stay alert and on high alert, since all the nobles of the country had gathered in the Daming Mansion tonight.

This kind of behavior of sticking together for warmth is both pathetic and laughable.

"Yes, boss."

Upon hearing this, the guards, whose faces clearly showed unease, responded loudly, as if hoping to rely on such a voice to give themselves some encouragement.

"Ah."

"please."

Having said that, the solemn-looking head guard turned around, intending to return to the palace.

But at that moment,

A guard standing outside the gate suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "What, what is that!"

His voice suppressed a palpable fear, and his outstretched finger trembled as he pointed to the end of the street. At that visible boundary, something seemed to suddenly appear, raising the entire dark boundary line a notch higher!

At the same time, a dense rustling sound broke the extreme silence of the night, like countless insects migrating and chewing on something!

Upon hearing this exclamation, Yokoyama Ryū, who had not yet entered the inner hall, suddenly stopped and looked in the direction his subordinate was pointing.

"That is?"

Even though he squinted, the dim light prevented him from immediately discerning what was causing the sudden rise in the horizon.

However, before he could give the order to be on guard, the shouts of other guards rang in his ears.

"Here, there are some here too!"

"Front,"

"There are some ahead too!!"

"Insects, insects, countless insects!!"

And this time, with the help of that last sliver of light, they were finally able to see clearly!

That layer, resembling black waves, and the thing constantly emitting strange noises, was actually an endless sea of ​​insects!

Legless, bipedal, quadrupedal, octagonal, and hundreds of legged worms of all kinds surged in brazenly and openly!

Yes, it came in a huge wave.

These hideous and terrifying Gu worms were like a rising tide, and their destination was clearly the Daming Prefecture behind them!

No wonder it's as still as stagnant water tonight.

No wonder the vicious dog, unrestrained by its owner, is silent tonight.

Faced with this endless pest infestation, what creature can remain unmoved?

In the end, it turned out just as Lord Nishitani had feared.

As the deadline approached, that person finally arrived!

The so-called three days later,

It was also a final ultimatum issued to the monarch of this country.

However, at the end of the deadline, no response was given from above.

The vast majority of the powerful and influential were convinced that Konoha would intervene to stop all of this and restrain this mad dog that belonged to their family.

However, in recent years, those powerful and wealthy individuals who are content with the status quo and hold high positions have still overlooked one fact:

The other party's surname is Uchiha!

The Uchiha clan, renowned throughout the ninja world for a century!

"Enemy attack!"

"Close the door, close the door quickly!"

"Prepare fire arrows! Don't let those things get near the Daimyo's residence!!"

Having figured everything out, the captain of the guard roared and howled, his eyes filled with bright red blood vessels. His left hand, hanging limply, gripped the sword at his waist tightly, while his right hand lashed out at his men, who were still in a state of fear.

Even though he really wants to escape right now, he really wants to leave this place.

However, guarding the Daming Prefecture was its most fundamental duty.

However, his voice, his command, lasted only a moment.

The next second, arrows fell, oil spilled, and the gates stopped. All the guards stared blankly at the swarm of insects approaching from three sides, as if they had lost their souls, as if they had been solidified into statues by Medusa!

"Move, move!"

"What are you doing? Have you all forgotten the oath you swore when you entered Daming Prefecture?"

"They're just some bugs, burn them all!"

Yokoyama Ryū roared like a wild beast, utterly disappointed.

"waste!"

"A bunch of useless trash!!"

Seeing the oil drum overturned on the ground, he pushed his stunned comrade aside and picked up the iron drum, which was still gushing oil.

That day,

When he heard that Lord Nishitani had adopted a laissez-faire attitude towards Uchiha Ara's actions, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief!

Afterwards, the humiliation and the lack of resistance he felt then weighed heavily on his heart like a huge rock.

After all, they were ninjas.

In essence, they are just a group of mercenaries who take money from others!

What right does he have to be compared to a born monarch? Even Konoha, the head of the Five Great Ninja Villages, is only subject to the command of the Daimyo of the Land of Fire. How dare he, Uchiha Ara, presume to be his equal?
