Ghost Lantern City.

Two giant black shadows were engaged in a fierce battle in the sky. One of them was a giant insect-shaped beast wearing black tengu armor—the armored Susanoo.

The other is an ancient demon, Satoru, who was once sealed in the Box of Elysium by the Sage of Six Paths.

The people of Kusagakure below watched in shock and fear as the giant beasts fought in the sky, still unable to recover from the immense psychological shock.

The box of bliss, which they had been searching for their whole lives, failed to grant their wish. Instead, a monster that terrified everyone emerged from it.

This was a huge psychological letdown for Kusagakure.

The old Jonin of Kusagakure, who was also the lord of Hozuki Castle, Musōichirō, seemed to have realized something and exclaimed, "I know! This is Satoru, an ancient demon that can read minds—Satoru!"

Legend has it that there was a monster in ancient times called Wu, which had no head or eyes, was covered in black fur, could speak human language, could see into people's hearts, and loved killing.

The members of Kusagakure all looked at Musouichiro.

An elder wearing a rat mask anxiously asked Musōichirō, "Musōichirō, how did you know?"

Musoichiro replied, "Besides guarding the Box of Paradise at Hozuki Castle, I don't have much to do. I usually read some books about the Box of Paradise."

Shirakawa pressed on, asking, "What exactly is Satoru? Why is such a demon imprisoned in the Box of Bliss? Isn't it a treasure that can grant wishes?"

Musouichiro shook his head: "No, no, the Box of Bliss is not a treasure that can grant wishes. The Box of Bliss is a ninja tool that restricts enlightenment."

"The ancestors of Kusagakure did not rule the world by fulfilling wishes, but by controlling Satoru to defeat all the countries in the world."

The rat-faced elder was somewhat excited: "Wu can be controlled! Quickly tell us how to control Wu!"

Musoichiro shook his head: "How would I know how to control Satoru? I've only read related texts. In the end, it's been hundreds of years since the last time the Box of Bliss was opened."

"Our history in Kusagakure has long been severed from that of our ancestors!"

The hermits immediately became disheartened.

Enlightenment is powerful.

Liao Wu's Susanoo, combined with the Seven-Tails, was actually suppressed by Wu.

Wu is just too fast. Despite being the size of a giant beast, he is more agile than a cat.

Its figure was as elusive as a ghost. Liao Wu released a small Tailed Beast Ball at the opponent, but in the blink of an eye, Wu had already flashed to the side by stepping on afterimages.

Each movement was so light it made no sound, as if the sky were its domain.

The seven tails' six wings are not as good as Go's pair.

Wu's agility is off the charts.

Wu saw through all the ninjutsu that Liao Wu used in combination with the Seven-Tails. It was light and ruthless, like a black wind that weaved through the gaps in the attack, so fast that only its outline remained.

In the original story, many of Konoha's top fighters, including Tsunade, Kakashi, Yamato, and even Sage Naruto and Killer Bee, couldn't touch Gomoku even slightly when they fought him.

With his top-tier ability to read minds and predict all attacks, coupled with top-tier stats comparable to tailed beasts, Satoru's strength has surpassed that of Nagato, who possesses the Rinnegan.

It's a pity that the people of Kusagakure who saw the power of the Satori were left to them. It was a treasure left to them by their ancestors, but because of the long time that has passed and the break in the inheritance, they no longer know how to control the Satori!

If Satoru could be controlled, Kusagakure wouldn't be an insignificant existence, and would even have some say in front of Madara.

They won't be sent to the battlefield as cannon fodder to resist the Allied Shinobi Forces anymore!

Wuwei looked at the Box of Bliss, stroked his chin, and analyzed, "I think the desire to control Wu is related to the Box of Bliss."

Everyone looked at the Box of Bliss, which had four ghost faces: Dian, Xiao, Ji, and Ma.

Wu came out of the Box of Bliss, a magical artifact created by the Sage of Six Paths to seal Wu.

That proves that controlling the Box of Bliss allows one to control Enlightenment, but the question is, how do you control the Box of Bliss?

Suddenly, the Box of Bliss began to move. The demonic face on one side opened its mouth wide and unleashed a spiraling suction vortex, seemingly trying to swallow all living beings into it and brainwash them into puppets.

Dragon Tongue and Wugou were instantly engulfed in it. Wuwei and Hagi Chiho quickly stepped forward, grabbed them, and then retreated far away.

When the elders of Kusagakure saw that the Box of Bliss was about to devour people, they all ran away with Muwei and Hagi Chiho.

Amidst the ensuing chaos, some prisoners in the jail began to riot, preparing to escape from Ghost Lantern Castle.

They had just come out when they were sucked back into the Box of Elysium.

Over the sky.

Liao Wu's powerful Seven-Tailed Demon and Wu's attack nearly destroyed the Great Dao.

No, no, Liao Wu and Qi Wei were suppressed by Wu.

Seven-Tails' agility is inferior to that of Wu, and all of its moves were seen through by its opponent.

Wu predicted Liao Wu's prediction.

A mechanism that can detect malice and make predictions is simply cheating.

Liao Wu has no fear of Wu, but he has malicious intent to attack Wu, which will be used as an anchor point for Wu to read minds.

Wu launched another attack, spreading its wings and releasing thousands upon thousands of feathers.

Because Wu's attack is instantaneous at close range, Liao Wu, who controls the Seven-Tails, cannot dodge it and can only steadily block Wu's flying feathers.

Each of Wu's flying feathers was a large kunai, which shot into the Susanoo that Liao Wu had attached to the Seven-Tails.

Susanoo blocked all of Go's feather attacks, but after the attacks, Go appeared like a ghost on the Seven-Tails' head, with a huge red chakra ball on his foot.

There was no way to dodge this attack, and it struck the Susanoo on the Seven-Tails directly.

With a thunderous roar, Wu's red chakra ball, as violent as a Tailed Beast Ball, directly knocked the Seven-Tails in its armor down.

A few breaths later, Liao Wu emerged from the pit, but Qi Wei did not.

It had previously transferred chakra from the Box of Bliss and also output it to Go, so it didn't have enough chakra left.

Moreover, the Seven-Tails' enormous size made it a huge target for the elusive and agile Satoru.

Liao Wu let the Seven-Tails recover its chakra in the pit, while he dealt with Wu.

Candy stood on Liao Wu's shoulder, looking solemnly at the black-feathered monsters looking down at them from the sky.

This is no ordinary monster; its power rivals that of the strongest tailed beast, the Nine-Tails.

Its ability to sense malice and read minds far surpasses the capabilities of many tailed beasts.

"Truly worthy of being a demon from the era of the Sage of Six Paths; no wonder the Sage of Six Paths sealed such a demon away!"

Candy turned to look at Liao Wu: "Shall we use the Inuzuka clan's secret technique?"

Liao Wu shook his head: "No, we must find a way to crack the mechanism by which Wu can see through all our attacks, otherwise even if we are ten times stronger, we will not be its match."

Liao Wu stroked his chin, thinking about how to deal with Wu.
