When they become villains in Konoha, the female ninjas all break down.

puff!

It happened in an instant.

In an instant, the black banner shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye.

It transformed into a "small flag" the size of a fan.

It was held in a jade-like hand.

The Yellow Springs cultists who were plotting against Ziyuan vanished without a trace.

It seemed to have been completely devoured by the black smoke...

"Disappeared?"

Yekura, Yuhi Kurenai, and the others suppressed their shock and quickly turned to look.

Then, a shrine maiden with a flushed face and somewhat disheveled clothes appeared before Shion.

He was holding a strangely shaped "small flag" in his hand.

Not only are there mandarin ducks embroidered on it, but there are even two ribbons...

It's called a small flag, but its shape doesn't resemble a flag at all.

It looks more like... a bellyband?

Moreover, the priestess was not in good condition at this time.

Her legs trembled unsteadily, and her peach-blossom eyes were somewhat swollen, as if she had lost a lot of water.

"Amazing."

Kurenai couldn't help but murmur aloud.

I never expected that this seemingly delicate and weak shrine maiden would possess such power.

Ye Cang frowned slightly.

She wants to see more.

The powerful one doesn't seem to be the priestess... but rather that strangely shaped flag 330?

"You bastard, how are you protecting the shrine maiden?"

At this moment, Iwa ninja pointed at Fang Yuan, who was wearing a tanuki mask, and shouted insults.

Fang Yuan glanced at the other person but didn't say anything.

The Iwa ninja, having been ignored, were immediately enraged.

What else do you want to say.

But the priestess interrupted him again, "Ninja, let's deal with the enemy first."

Seeing that the shrine maiden had spoken, the rock ninja stopped talking.

"Humph!"

After letting out a cold snort, he charged out of the hall again.

Yekura and Yuhi Kurenai also turned and left, returning to the battlefield.

Kurenai Yuhi never believed that anyone could harm the priestess in front of Fang Yuan.

call...

Seeing everyone leave, the priestess breathed a long sigh of relief.

But he could no longer hold on, and with a stumble, he fell to his knees in a duck-like position.

He slumped down on the prayer mat beside him.

She had been tormented by Fang Yuan for two hours and was already exhausted.

At that moment, I felt like my whole body was falling apart...

It even has a burning sensation.

But looking at her own undergarment in her hand, she couldn't shake the shock on her face.

That's really amazing.

Who would have thought that before today, I was wearing it all along, just an ordinary piece of clothing.

"Can...can it really help me fight off the demons?"

She asked without looking up.

Fang Yuan looked at the undergarment in Maitreya's hand, imagining its softness, and smiled:

"I have stored some of my 'Soul Banner' power on it. It's not enough to completely destroy the demon, but it's enough to protect you from being devoured by it."

Upon hearing this, Maitreya's pretty face flushed red, and she gritted her teeth, saying:

"Can't we use other fabrics? Why does it have to be this one?"

When their emotions ran high, he said he would give her a weapon to protect herself.

Then he simply ripped off her bodice.

Then...

In other words, she is currently in a vacuum.

“Of course you could use other fabrics,” Fang Yuan shrugged. “But I like it!”

"you!"

Maitreya felt a surge of energy in his chest.

Without the constraints, the friction from the clothes caused her obvious discomfort... but there was nothing she could do about it.

Fang Yuan had an indescribable sense of satisfaction on his face.

I never expected the shrine maiden to be wearing a bellyband, that's really exciting...

"You promised me you'd help me completely eliminate the demons."

Maitreya suddenly spoke, his tone pleading.

"It's natural."

Fang Yuan walked up to her, a playful smile on his lips, and said, "But... what should you call me?"

As he spoke, he reached out and lifted Maitreya's snow-white chin.

Ziyuan, standing to the side, looked at her mother and her handsome older brother with great curiosity. What were they talking about?

“Don’t… don’t do this.”

Maitreya pleaded, "Shion is still here."

"so what?"

Maitreya sensed his unbridled arrogance.

She was afraid that he might do something outrageous in front of Ziyuan again.

He could only bite his lip and manage to utter a few words with difficulty.

"Master...Master!"

"That's a good boy. Remember to call me master when there are no outsiders around."

Fang Yuan said in a sinister tone.

Maitreya felt as if she were bound by an invisible rope, imprisoned and unable to break free...

She answered resignedly:

"Yes...yes, Master."

...

After a while.

Peace finally returned to outside the main hall.

The ninjas from Konoha, Sunagakure, and Iwagakure returned to the temple one after another.

"We have now dealt with most of the Yellow Springs cultists."

Ye Cang toyed with her crimson hair and said in a charming, mature voice, "The rest are nothing to fear..."

“That’s right, we can set off anytime.”

The Iwa ninja captain echoed.

Kakashi and Uchiha Shisui turned their heads at the same time.

Go see Fang Yuan, who is wearing a mask, next to the shrine maiden.

Seeing that Fang Yuan did not respond, the two nodded without saying anything.

Fang Yuan glanced at the group of people who had just entered.

Although these people looked somewhat disheveled, none of them were seriously injured.

It is clear that the battle just now was quite large in scale.

But it wasn't intense.

But thinking about it again, this is normal.

Whether it was Konoha, Sunagakure, or Iwagakure, almost all the ninja sent to support the Land of Demons were elites from their respective villages.

Dealing with a group of heretics and third-rate ninjas is naturally a piece of cake.

Although these heretics possessed the chakra of demons, their combat experience was still mediocre, and they were not worth worrying about at all.

Fang Yuan suddenly thought of Huang Quan, who continued to cause trouble after Naruto grew up, and asked:

"What about the Yellow Springs?"

Mitarashi Anko covered her mouth and chuckled softly, "That guy took a hit from Kakashi's Chidori and was stabbed by Shisui. Although he escaped, he probably won't make it out to be."

"Uh……"

Fang Yuan was speechless.

If nothing unexpected happens, that guy shouldn't die.

It is precisely the remnants of the Yellow Springs Cult.

This likely triggered the uproar about the resurrection of the demons more than a decade later.

But it doesn’t matter.

It's uncertain whether there will be any more demons in the future.

Everyone had a happy expression on their face.

After defeating the Yellow Springs Cult, there will be no more interference on the way to escort the priestess to Fengmo Mountain.

Fang Yuan had no intention of actively seeking out the demon.

Therefore, the plan to escort the priestess to Mount Fumo in the Swamp Country remained unchanged.

Before leaving, the priestess Miroku hid her daughter Shion in a secret room at the bottom of the palace and instructed her servants to protect her carefully.

When everyone saw the priestess again.

I just felt that she seemed a little different, but I couldn't quite put my finger on it.

At this moment, the priestess Miroku shook off her previous dejected state.

He was radiant, with a confident and fearless expression on his face.

This is the same as when they first met the priestess.

This contrasts sharply with the other party's resolute determination to die.

Moreover, the shrine maiden appears to be injured.

He walks unsteadily and needs to hold onto the wall for support.

In the end, it was the Konoha ninja wearing the tanuki mask who stepped forward and carried the shrine maiden on his back.
