XX-level Hokage

"What are you talking about?" Ziwan asked.

"It's nothing," Mashiro said, shaking her head.

At this moment, Huang Quan's four subordinates realized that ranged attacks were ineffective against Masashi and his companion. They exchanged glances, preparing for close combat. But this was exactly what Masashi was waiting for. As they approached, the stone wall suddenly vanished, and Masashi drew a "1" shape forward, instantly...

The head fell to the ground, and blood gushed out continuously.

The ability to switch between reality and illusion is very powerful, but Mashiro does not have the bloodline of the Kurama family, which means that it takes her several times longer to use this ability than Yakumo does. Moreover, Mashiro does not have a talent for drawing, so since she obtained the ability, Mashiro has only figured out this one move, but it has always been very effective against enemies.

Mashiro had a habit from her past life of not liking to show off her strength, so even though she could easily overwhelm these four people, she still used...

Even with such underhanded tactics, the four of them didn't die in vain.

Mashiro turned to look at Shion, whose face was pale; it seemed to be the first time she had witnessed such a bloody scene. Reaching out to cover Shion's eyes, Mashiro said, "Unfortunately, it's a bit too late now; you've already seen it." "Yes, but thank you anyway," Shion said, swatting Mashiro's hand away.

The two continued deeper into the lair, when the "Terracotta Warriors" army surged out from the depths, flanking them and surrounding them completely. "Oh my, I'm so envious, having an army like that," Mashiro said, looking at the steel corpses.

Previously, she would have used Fusion Release to disperse them first, and then let the Shadow Legion surround and control them, but now, Mashiro has made a better choice.

Mashiro shielded Shiwan behind her, her Byakugan transformed into the Rinnegan, and then she stretched out her arms.

"Shinra Tensei!" *Bang!*

When the smoke cleared, Qiaoti's lair had completely collapsed, and all the "Terracotta Warriors" had vanished without a trace.

Chapter Sixty-Nine: The Witch Under the Moon

"It's really powerful." Mashiro couldn't help but exclaim.

Aster looked at the shattered rocks around her, her eyes filled with shock. She looked at Mashiro and muttered to herself, "If it were her, she should be able to manage." With the destruction of the nest, Tiaoti officially made her appearance.

Possessed by Qiao, Huang Quan emerged from the depths of his lair, his body emanating a black, evil aura. He walked up to the two of them, his malevolent gaze fixed on Zi Wan, and said, "We've finally met, the current priestess."

Ziwan looked at Qiaosha with a cold gaze. The fate of her clan, including the death of her mother, was all due to this monster before her. "I will destroy you, just like my ancestors did," Ziwan said expressionlessly.

"Hahaha, with your power, your lineage of priestesses is far weaker than before, so what makes you think you can destroy me?" Qiaoshai said with a wicked smile, as countless black wisps of energy surged from its body, forming tentacles that attacked Ziwan.

Mashiro extended her hand. "Melting Release: Burial"

Flames rose from the ground, water dragons came from all directions, lightning struck from the sky, and fierce winds swept everything up, lifting and compressing boulders into a massive stone coffin. The figure of the creature was directly pulled into the coffin, and its earlier attack had long since vanished under the fierce onslaught.

Mashiro stared at the stone coffin in front of her. She didn't think Qiao would die so easily. If it were that easy, it wouldn't be rumored to have the power to destroy the ninja world.

Just then, an incredibly strong evil aura emanated from the stone coffin, which then shattered violently, revealing a huge, blackish-purple serpent with nine heads and countless tentacles. This serpent was the true form of Qiao.

Holding Ziwan, he placed her at a distance and then used the Zhenze Barrier to protect her. Zhenbai then came alone to Qiao.

"It's said you possess the power to destroy the ninja world, but now it seems you're nothing special," Mashiro provocatively remarked. "Damn ant!" Kiba roared angrily, then several tentacles pierced towards Mashiro.

This time, Mashiro didn't use any stealth techniques. After dodging several tentacles with a teleportation motion, Mashiro caught the last tentacle with her arm. "So heavy!"

This was Mashiro's first impression, and then she was sent flying backwards.

A giant soldier appeared out of thin air, caught Mashiro, and placed her on his shoulder.

Shaking her aching shoulders, Mashiro sighed, "As expected, I'm still not suited for taijutsu." Just then, the tentacles attacked again, this time twice as many as before.

Mashiro stretched out her hands and began forming hand seals, then pointed her two index fingers towards each other. "Fusion Release: Lightning Tribulation"

This was Mashiro's first time using both hands to form hand seals, and also the most serious she had ever done so.

The earth began to tremble, and a massive rocky ridge appeared out of thin air beneath the swaying creature, forcefully lifting it into the air. A fierce gale then arose, severing all of the creature's outstretched tentacles. Next, a surge of water bound the creature tightly. Finally, dark clouds gathered into lightning, countless bolts of lightning striking the creature's body, causing it to let out a piercing scream. The charred swaying creature crashed heavily to the ground, flames erupting at that moment.

After receiving the reward of mastering the five elements of ninjutsu from the Third Hokage, Mashiro subsequently received the rewards of mastering Wind Release, Rock Release, Lightning Release, and Fire Release from other people. This made Mashiro's understanding of the five elements of ninjutsu reach an unbelievable level. "Fusion Release: Lightning Tribulation" is one of the strongest Fusion Release ninjutsu that emerged from her domain.

Mashiro approached the flame-scorched Tsubaki, who appeared to have fainted. "Is it over?" Mashiro murmured to herself.

But she had a bad feeling about it. Just as she was about to leave, the little creature on the ground suddenly opened its eyes, and nine heads gathered together to form a purplish-black sphere, which shot towards Zhenbai.

But when the sphere touched Mashiro, the sound of mirrors shattering suddenly rang out all around. Mashiro in front of the sphere vanished instantly, and the sphere continued forward, falling into the deep forest.

A huge explosion rang out, followed by the release of black gas.

Zhenbai stepped out from behind Qiaoshai, looked at Qiaoyi's strange eyes, and said softly, "Luckily, I was prepared."

The Uchiha clan possesses many genjutsu, including two related to mirrors: "Genjutsu: Mirror Reversal" and "Genjutsu: Mirror Reversal."

"Genjutsu: Mirror Heaven and Earth Turn" is a powerful reflective genjutsu that uses the Sharingan to break the genjutsu cast on oneself by the enemy and completely reflect the effect of the genjutsu back to the enemy.

"Genjutsu: Mirror Reversal" is a powerful seduction ninjutsu that uses the Sharingan to create a genjutsu mirror, using the reflection to confuse the enemy.

These two ninjutsu are considered very powerful genjutsu within the Uchiha clan. As the three heroes of the Uchiha clan, she, Itachi, and Shisui were all qualified to choose one to learn. Itachi and Shisui both chose Mirror Heaven and Earth Transformation, while only Mashiro chose Mirror Transformation Heaven and Earth.

Therefore, Masashiro has never been able to understand Itachi's massacre of the clan. If he was going to massacre the clan, he could have at least left some of the clan's ninjutsu and genjutsu for Sasuke. Instead, they all mysteriously disappeared, leaving Sasuke without even a decent genjutsu.

In short, as soon as Qiao fell to the ground, Mashiro used Mirror Image to trap Qiao, successfully tricking her into revealing her trump card.

Looking at the deep pit not far away, Mashiro muttered to himself, "It's somewhat similar to the Tailed Beast Ball, but it can't compare to the Nine-Tails or Eight-Tails in terms of power. However, it seems to contain poison, so in terms of lethality, it's about the same."

Qiao stopped pretending and quickly got up from the ground. Its wounds healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and its tentacles attacked Zhenbai again. "Zhenbai, Qiao is a product of human evil. It is immortal," Ziwan shouted to Zhenbai from a distance.

"As expected?" Zhen Zi was not surprised. Qiao Ti's combat strength was about the same as the leader's. If he didn't have something special, how could he dare to say that he would destroy the Fire Ninja World?

It cannot be destroyed, only sealed by specific people. The greater the evil intentions of humans, the stronger it becomes. With these characteristics, it really has the potential to destroy the ninja world. "Since it can't be killed, let's control it."

Mashiro closed her eyes, clasped her hands together, and a black sphere appeared in her palms. She then made the black sphere float in the air, rising higher and higher. Then, Mashiro suddenly opened her eyes.

"Planetary Explosion"

An incredibly powerful gravitational force pulled Qiao into the sky, and then countless rocks, trees, and even "Bingma Tong" flew into the sky, sticking tightly to Qiao. More and more rocks appeared, and soon a huge stone sphere was formed. Qiao was firmly bound in the stone sphere and could not move.

Mashiro approached Aster, dispelled the True Swamp barrier, then picked up Aster and floated to the giant sphere. "Seal it," Mashiro said softly.

Ziwan nodded, took off the bell hanging around her neck, and pushed it towards the stone ball. The bell, emitting a bright light, entered the stone ball without any hindrance. Immediately afterward, there was a scream from Qiaoxi. Soon after, the stone ball shattered, and Qiaoxi disappeared without a trace.

The skipping of the topic has been sealed again.

Mashiro, carrying Shion, found Ashiho and told him the news. Then the three of them returned to the Land of Demons, where the whole country cheered.

At night, Mashiro was resting in a room specially arranged for her, which had a huge window from which she could clearly see the moon outside.

Just then, there was a knock on the door.

Mashiro opened the door, and there stood Shion, dressed as a shrine maiden.

"What brings you here so late at night?" Mashiro asked with a smile, looking at Shion's beautiful face. "I remember you really liked me in this outfit," Shion said softly, her face slightly flushed. Mashiro instantly understood Shion's meaning and gently took her hand.

A tail quietly appeared. A shy cloud obscured the moon. The night was still long.

Chapter Seventy: Savings Devices

The second stage, early morning. A scene of utter chaos.

Their clothes were scattered everywhere.

"I never expected you to come to me like this." Mashiro looked at the ceiling and said softly.

Whether in her past life or this one, she and Ziwan were not close. In her past life, she even used despicable means to coerce Ziwan. Therefore, in this life, Zhenbai did not actually intend to provoke Ziwan.

“I despise fate. If your plan succeeds and the inheritance becomes a profession, then there is no need for my lineage to exist. Therefore, I do not intend to marry and have children. So I don’t mind giving it a try. You can take it as a bribe. I just didn’t expect that you would have that strange thing.” Ziwan said, her face turning red again.

Upon hearing this, Mashiro glanced at him with a half-smile, and the tail of desire twitched again.

When Shinji left the Land of Demons, Shiwan did not come to see him off; she remained fast asleep in bed.

After leaving the Land of Demons, Mashiro originally intended to visit the Land of Snow, but remembering the Two-Tails, she quickly returned to Konoha.

"You did a great job on this mission, thank you for your hard work." Tsunade said to Mashiro with a smile. "The process was indeed quite troublesome, but fortunately the gains were quite good." Mashiro said with a smile. Gains? Tsunade didn't think much of it, only considering it as experience from fighting Tita.

"What are you planning to do next? I have some troublesome tasks on my plate; do you want to take care of them as well?" Tsunade said, waving the documents in her hand.

"Never mind, I want to rest for a bit." Mashiro waved her hand in refusal.

"Alright, don't forget to take care of some official business for me during your break," Tsunade said somewhat ingratiatingly.

“We’ll see then,” Mashiro said, leaving the Hokage’s office. After leaving the Hokage’s office, Mashiro went straight to the “Root” research institute.

"Lord Mashiro, you're back." Tono Kazusuke said respectfully as soon as he saw Mashiro arrive.

"How is it, Assistant Fang? Is there any problem with the energy storage device?" Mashiro asked, looking at the huge black cube not far away.

"Reporting to Lord Mashiro, the energy storage device is performing better than we expected. According to the data recorded these past few days, there has been no chakra leakage, and the extraction of chakra has been unimpeded. It hasn't even reached full saturation with half of the Two-Tails' chakra. The only drawback is that mass production is too difficult. Using mass production to create the storage device not only has a low success rate, but the quality of the finished product is also far inferior to the one currently in use," Tohno Fusuke explained in detail.

"Very good, Fangzhu, your whole team did a great job. Go to the finance department to collect your reward. As for mass production, I hope you will put in even more effort. When we succeed, the position of director will be yours." Mashiro patted Tono Fangzhu on the shoulder and said.

"Thank you so much, Mashiro-sama! I will do my best!" Tono Fusuke knelt down, his eyes burning with gratitude. Mashiro smiled and approached the storage device. Many people might not expect that such a simple black cube contained half a tail.

Beast chakra

“Since there are no problems, let’s extract all the chakra inside. While we’re at it, let’s find someone obedient in the prison and make him the new Two-Tails Jinchuriki,” Mashiro said, stroking the rough outer wall of the energy storage device.

"Yes, Mashiro-sama."

Toyama Ichisuke, a spy from the Land of Water, was arrested by the Dark Guard because of a list of undercover agents. In prison, he actively cooperated with the investigation and told almost everything he knew in order to get the list. As a result, he was specially placed in a solitary cell. Although it was not the special cell that held Yugito Tehan, it was still a special treatment.

Today, as always, Toyama Ichisuke stared blankly at the ceiling of his cell.

Suddenly, two secret agents approached and blindfolded him. He was then placed in a box and remained there for a while.

After a long time, he was taken out of the box and tied to a platform.

Then, a black cloth was pulled in front of him, and a masked person said to him, "Cooperate well, and you will be released after the experiment is completed." Before Toyama Ichisuke could react, he fainted. When he woke up, he found himself in an unfamiliar forest.

"I've been released?" Toyama Ichisuke was somewhat incredulous, feeling his body, which seemed no different. Although he didn't know what the experiment meant, being released was always a good thing, so Toyama Ichisuke quickly ran into the distance.

On a tree not far from Ichisuke Toyama, Sasori and Kakuzu were silently watching him. "Is it him?" Sasori asked.

Kakuzu took a photo out of his pocket, looked at it, and said, "That's right, it's him." The two quickly disappeared from the spot.

Toyama Ichisuke was still in a state of excitement; some people were still alive, but he was already dead.

"Removing the will of the Tailed Beasts, Tailed Beast Chakra is just chakra. Through the dormancy of the storage device, this Tailed Beast Chakra has become docile. Jinchuriki created with this chakra will eliminate the risk of going out of control, but they seem to no longer have the ability to use Tailed Beast Chakra," Mashiro recorded in her experimental log.

After writing this, Mashiro sighed softly. It seemed that the plan to create a perfect Jinchuriki was going to fail.

However, Mashiro wasn't too concerned about the failure of the plan. The invention of the storage device wasn't for that, but for a more important purpose.

Back home, Tehan didn't seem to be there; only Tayuya was lying on the sofa, eating snacks and watching TV.

Tayuya didn't notice Mashiro; her face was beaming with happiness. Mashiro's absence during these few rounds made the Sound Ninja girl feel incredibly relaxed.

Stepping lightly behind Tayuya, Mashiro suddenly pounced on her, eliciting a gasp from Tayuya. "Tayuya seems quite happy. Did something good happen?" Mashiro asked, nuzzling Tayuya's face.

"Lord Mashiro, no, Master, you're back!" Tayuya exclaimed upon seeing Mashiro. "What, shouldn't I be back?" Mashiro said with a half-smile.

The faint smile startled Duoyou, who quickly said, "No, no, no, I'm so happy that Master is back. I've been looking forward to Master's return these past few days."

"You really touched me, here's a reward for you." Mashiro got up, sat on Tayuya's lap, and pointed to her lips. Tayuya blushed and kissed her.
