Become a god by AFK starting from Naruto

This realization was like a sharp sword, piercing Akaza's heart.

He finally saw his true self and rediscovered the long-forgotten pain and sorrow deep within his heart.

At this moment, Lianxue was still immersed in deep pain, but when that familiar call entered her ears, she couldn't help but be stunned.

She slowly raised her head, staring at Akaza in front of her, her eyes filled with disbelief and confusion.

Her fingers trembled slightly as she raised them and then lowered them, as if hesitating whether to touch this long-lost figure.

Finally, she mustered her courage and gently touched him.

When she felt that familiar warmth on her fingertips, tears instantly welled up and streamed down her face.

"Komaji!!"

She cried out and threw herself into Akaza's arms without hesitation.

Akaza instinctively wanted to hug Koyuki tightly, but when he raised his hands, he seemed to see the blood of countless innocent people staining them.

His hand froze in mid-air, and the self-blame and guilt in his heart made him feel that he was not worthy of embracing her.

However, Lianxue held his hand tightly and pulled him into her arms.

At this moment, the man was in tears.

"I'm sorry! I'm so sorry! I couldn't protect you! I wasn't there for you when you needed me most!"

Akaza choked back tears as he apologized, each word filled with deep self-reproach and regret.

"Not a single promise has been kept!"

Lianxue gently stroked his hair, her eyes sparkling with tenderness.

She shook her head and said softly, "It's so good that you remember me. It's so good that you can turn back into the Komaji you used to be."

She hugged him tightly, wanting to freeze this moment of happiness in her heart forever:

Welcome back, dear!

Minato and the others stood quietly, watching the two embrace each other tenderly.

Even the Flame Pillar, who always took it upon himself to slay demons, stopped and looked at them with gentle eyes.

After a long while, Akaza reluctantly let go of Koyuki.

He turned around, looked at Minato, and said with a smile, "I lost, you won."

In Akaza's eyes, who had regained his memories at this moment, Minato, who was able to behead him honorably, was undoubtedly the true victor.

Koyuki bowed to Minato and the others, saying, "Thank you for making Komaji remember me."

After saying that, she turned around, leaned close to Akaza, touched her lightly, and then withdrew: "I will always be with you."

Honey."

After she finished speaking, her figure slowly dissipated; the time granted by the star flow had run out.

Akaza touched his face, looked at the dissipating Koiyuki, and smiled with relief.

"I'm here, Lianxue."

"Destruction Kill - Annihilation Style".

As soon as he finished speaking, he smashed his own head off with a punch.

This time, however, the head, which should have regenerated, did not.

Minato and the others thought it was all over, but the Flame Pillar frowned and said:

"Wait, something's not right!"

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately perked up and looked warily at Akaza's corpse.

Sure enough, they discovered that Akaza's head did not fail to regenerate, but rather that the regeneration rate had become abnormally slow.

This left them quite confused.

Akaza's expression and actions just now indicated that he had let go and wanted to leave with his lover.

What's going on in this situation now?

Just as they were racking their brains trying to figure it out, Xingliu's voice reached their ears.

"That's because some scoundrel doesn't want him to leave so easily."

In Seiryu's eyes, Komaji was being forcibly commanded by Muzan at this moment.

Lianxue, with tears streaming down her face, clung tightly to him, unwilling to let him go.

Seeing that Muzan dared to play tricks on him, Xingliu couldn't help but sneer disdainfully, then let out a heavy snort.

For others, that cold snort might just be a way of expressing emotions.

But to Muzan, it sounded like an endless surge of killing intent, instantly freezing him in place, unable to move.

At the same time, Komaji, who was originally under Muzan's control, also felt a surge of relief.

He finally understood that it was this mysterious and powerful Starflow who allowed him to reunite with Lianxue, and it was also this Starflow who allowed him to completely break free from Muzan's shackles.

So he and Lianxue bowed deeply to Xingliu, expressing their heartfelt gratitude.

Then, they held each other's hands tightly and transformed into a beam of light, disappearing into the space.

Although Komaji knew that his actions would inevitably lead him to hell, he was fearless as long as Koyuki was by his side.

They will stay together forever in each other's love as they face the future.

Xingliu did not directly intervene in Muzan's affairs, after all, this was a test for the three teams.

So far, their performance has been satisfactory to him.

Both teamwork and individual performance met his expectations.

Therefore, this assessment will continue.

Kushina's face lit up with a delighted smile upon seeing Hoshiryu's arrival, and she exclaimed joyfully:

"Teacher, you're here!"

As she spoke, she jogged over to Xingliu's side, took his hand, and asked with a giggle:

"How did I do just now? Is there a reward?"

Xingliu looked at the girl with the sly smile and couldn't help but chuckle as he flicked her forehead.

Amid Kushina's groans and groans as she clutched her head in pain, he whispered:

"You performed the worst; you couldn't wait to rush in whenever the enemy provoked you."

"If it weren't for the techniques Mito taught you, you would have been injured long ago."

Hearing the teacher's evaluation, Kushina hummed twice in dissatisfaction, but did not leave.

As a member of the Uzumaki clan, she grew up listening to stories about star flow.

Her grandfather, in particular, spoke highly of Xingliu.

This led Kushina to idolize Seiryu from a young age.

Being selected as a member of Xingliu's team made her incredibly happy and proud.

Now she wishes she could be by Xingliu's side 24 hours a day.

Chapter 263 The Invitation of the Flame Pillar

After giving Kushina a slight reprimand, Seiryu said no more and turned his attention to the others:

“You all performed exceptionally well, and your judgments were very accurate.”

If you continue in this state, you will definitely win the reward I mentioned earlier.

Upon hearing Xingliu's words, Minato and the others revealed undisguised joy.

At that moment, Kyojuro Rengoku slowly walked over, supported by Tanjiro and Zenitsu.

He looked at Xingliu and the others, his voice weary as he said:

"Although I do not know your identities, anyone who is dedicated to slaying evil spirits is our comrade."

Tanjiro and Zenitsu nodded in agreement upon hearing the Flame Hashira's words.

However, Inosuke, wearing a boar's head mask, seemed somewhat unconvinced.

He wielded his distinctive serrated Nichirin Blade, displaying an arrogant air as he brandished it, his eyes revealing a hint of provocation towards Minato and the others.

However, at that moment, Flame Pillar Kyojuro Rengoku suddenly trembled, clearly unable to hold on any longer.

He closed his eyes and fell backward, falling into a coma.

This unexpected situation made Inosuke forget about provoking Minato and the others. He knew that the most important thing now was to save Kyojuro as soon as possible.

So he quickly put away his Nichirin Blade and, together with the others, laid Kyojuro flat on the ground and began to treat his injuries.

The group surrounded the unconscious Kyojuro Rengoku. Tanjiro quickly checked his pulse and breathing, confirming that he was still alive, but the situation was not optimistic.

Zenitsu hurriedly rummaged through his backpack to find first-aid medicine and bandages, preparing to perform initial wound treatment.

Although Inosuke is usually rough and unruly, he appears unusually anxious at this moment.

He stared wide-eyed at Kyojuro's face, as if that would awaken him from his coma.

Just then, Hyuga and the others, who had finished cleaning up the battlefield, arrived.

After sealing the jade pot into the scroll, they learned that Xingliu had emerged and rushed over.

Looking at Kyojuro lying on the ground, Hiashi Hyuga said in a deep voice, "I have some basic medical ninjutsu skills. May I take a look?"

Although Tanjiro and his two companions didn't know much about medical ninjutsu, they could guess that it was an ability that could heal the Flame Pillar.

So they quickly made way for Hyuga Hiashi to come forward and check.

Hiashi Hyuga gently examined Kyojuro Rengoku's wounds and then began to cast a healing spell.

However, seeing the wounds on Yanzhu's body that were bleeding uncontrollably, his brows furrowed.

Finally, he sighed softly, took out a healing talisman from his pocket, and stuck it on Rengoku Kyojuro's body.

As Hiashi Hyuga said, he only had a basic understanding of medical ninjutsu.
