"Hoo ......"

Aoki looked at the ghost legion that stopped moving, and suddenly breathed a long sigh of relief, and then his eyes, which were originally gloomy because of exhaustion, suddenly flashed with a fine light, and couldn't help but say to himself: "It's Brother Watergate, they succeeded, is it Sister Maitreya ......?"

"Aoki, don't think about it, it's not necessarily a shrine maiden, I think it should be the water gate who sealed the dragon!"

Seeing that Aoki was talking about Maitreya, Akido's eyes were gloomy again, so he quickly diverted his attention.

The oil girl Zhiwei on the side also bowed slightly, expressing her agreement with this statement, but the look on Aoki's face remained the same, and he had to continue to say: "Now there is no need to speculate, let's just go to the water gate and them!"

Aoki and the others also nodded after hearing this, and then Qiu Dao Dingza and Oil Girl Zhiwei bore the brunt, and Aoki followed behind them, running in the direction that the two of them left before.

They weren't very fast now, due to exhaustion, so it took them about a quarter of an hour or so to reach the great portal.

Aoki frowned, and hurriedly looked inside the portal, only to see that the ground inside was completely destroyed, and countless huge craters appeared, as well as mountains of rubble that had formed the craters.

"This ......"

The oil girl Zhi's eyes under the sunglasses, looking at the picture in front of her, suddenly couldn't help but groan.

Akido Dingza stood still in place, the expression on his face instantly frozen, and it was obvious that the scene in front of him made him speechless in shock.

After a while, Akido Dingza reacted and said, "Water...... What did Watergate go through...... That's right! Where are they! ”

In the huge space, there are broken stones everywhere you look, there are no stone puppets of the ghost army, there is no existence of otherworldly monsters and spirits, and the two of them are nowhere to be seen.

Seeing this, Aoki rushed into the huge space after being in a trance for a while.

He is familiar with the plot of the theatrical version, so he knows the final result, but he still has a 1 in 10,000 possibility in his heart, thinking that it is the Watergate that seals the dragon.

Zhiwei and the others saw Aoki rushing in, and hurriedly followed behind him and entered the portal.

During the run, Qiu Dao Dingzuo suddenly turned his head to the oil girl Zhiwei on the side and said, "Zhiwei, is your parasite okay?" If you can, release the parasites and use them to find out if they're still here! ”

Hearing this, the oil girl Zhiwei also nodded, and then said, "Okay!" Although there are very few of them, as long as there are chakras in the surrounding environment, I can find those chakras! ”

After speaking, a group of black parasites flew out of the sleeve robe of the oil girl Zhiwei, and after these parasites continued to fly forward for a while, they scattered and flew towards the huge space.

Aoki, after taking in the situation around him, was attracted by a pit that was more than ten times larger than the other potholes on the ground.

Then, he sped towards the huge crater.

Cautiously walking to the pit, Aoki tentatively looked inside, only to see that this one, like the others, was filled with rubble.

But the only difference is that there is a lot of purple liquid sticking to the walls around the hole.

This liquid is crystal clear, and at first glance it looks like a purple gemstone, which is very beautiful.

Aoki stared at the purple liquid, and his face showed an obscure expression, as if he had something in mind that he was very concerned about.

"Aoki! Dingza! Got it! There are other chakra reactions! ”

Just when Aoki was a little distracted, there was a shout from the oil girl Zhiwei behind him.

He didn't pay attention to the purple liquid anymore, and quickly turned around, only to see the oil girl Zhiwei half-squatting next to a very high pile of gravel at this time, and stretched out her hand to keep digging this pile of rubble.

Aoki knew the method of the oil girl Shiwei to parasitize the bad worm, and guessed what he might have discovered, so he jumped up from the spot and went in his direction.

Autumn Dao Dingza also heard the voice of the oil girl Zhiwei, and quickly stopped the movements in his hand, and joined Aoki who came from behind him, and rushed there.

The two came to the side of the oil girl Zhiwei, and with him they were very careful to dig the gravel in front of them, and then Aoki took the lead and asked, "Brother Zhiwei, did you find anything?"

"My bugs have sensed a faint chakra reaction and are under the rubble!" Oil Girl Zhiwei replied.

At this time, the Akido Ding Seat also said: "Massaga...... Watergate and Mikoma-sama are buried underneath! ”

"Possibly! Brother Dingza, can you still use the multiplication technique, so that you can easily get rid of these rubble! ”

Aoki looked at Dingza, whose expression changed, and then reminded.

"Good! Although I hadn't accumulated much chakra in the period just now, it was enough to use a partial multiplication technique. ”

After Ding Zuo finished speaking, his right hand instantly expanded, and then grabbed the gravel.

With the big hand of the Akido Dingza, the layer of gravel covering the surface was quickly removed.

When the gravel was removed, the figures of the two people appeared in the eyes of Aoki and the others.

One is a Konoha ninja wearing a green vest with blond hair, and the other is a beautiful woman dressed in a red and white witch costume.

……

In the mountains and forests of the Oni no Kuni, the afterglow of the setting sun reflects the silent shrine maiden village.

Aoki was now squatting on the top of a rockery in the garden, holding his legs and his chin on his knees, his eyes looking at the sun slowly hiding behind the mountain in the distance, stunned.

After a while, he rubbed his face in a trance, his expression suddenly showed sadness, and he said to himself, "Why...... None of this can be changed, so what's the point of my presence! ”

At this time, Aoki was still immersed in the sad mood after Maitreya sealed the dragon.

It had been almost a year since his soul had come to the ninja world from the place where he had lived in his previous life, and he had never felt as confused as he was now.

Since the time crossing, his goal has been to become stronger, and then survive the three battles, and nothing else seems to be relevant to him.

But now Maitreya's matter has made some changes in his state of mind.

Aoki suddenly had many questions in his heart, such as what he came to this world for, what he lived for, and what his pursuit in this life was.

He knew what was going to happen, and although he had experienced it himself, his own strength made him a spectator, unable to change what was about to happen.

His head was hollow, as if he were in a fog, unable to grasp anything or where he was going.

"Aoki ......"

Aoki's mind was blurred, and he suddenly heard a voice from behind him, and he was very irritable in his heart, and he didn't want to pay attention to it.

He could roughly guess who appeared behind him, it should be Watergate, who was very concerned about everyone around him.

Presumably, when Watergate came at this time, most of them realized that they were very depressed, and then wanted to comfort themselves.

Although he was in a very bad mood, after hesitating for a moment, Aoki decided to respond to Watergate, after all, he couldn't treat kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs.

But when Aoki turned around and saw the appearance of the person who came, the original impatient mood was swept away, and then his eyes widened, and he made a gesture of surprise, and said, "Mi...... Sister Maitreya! ”

"What's the matter, is it strange to see me!"

Maitreya looked at Aoki's surprised look in her eyes, and then she, who had a somewhat solemn expression, smiled and said.

"You...... Aren't you that anymore! Don't...... Hell! ”

Aoki always thought that Maitreya had died of exhaustion of his life force after sealing the Spirit.

Even if I really see Maitreya now, I am still speculating whether it will be changed by Shuimen and others to show me, but I think that according to Watergate's character, they will not do such a bad thing.

So he subconsciously thought that this was Maitreya's undead coming to find him.

So, Aoki, who has always been as timid as a mouse towards the ghosts and ghosts of the undead, looked at Maitreya's smile, and his heart suddenly trembled, and then he spasmed all over.

Maitreya covered his mouth and laughed, and then said disdainfully to Aoki: "Aoki, although you are still young, you are already a ninja who can take charge of yourself, and you are scared like this when you encounter a little thing, what a coward!"

Aoki saw the contemptuous expression on Maitreya's face, and his calves, which were constantly shaking, suddenly stopped, and then showed a serious look and walked in front of Maitreya.

After he came to Maitreya, he stood on tiptoe, stretched out his hand and touched Maitreya's white and tender face like mutton fat jade, and then looked at the palm of his hand and pouted: "Hmm...... There's still a temperature! Sure enough, it's not a ghost! ”

Maitreya watched Aoki's movements, reacted at this moment, and said angrily: "Damn boy! If you dare to touch my face, it looks like I'm going to have to teach you some lessons! ”

Aoki saw Maitreya's fists clenched, the expression on his face suddenly changed, and he thought in his heart: "I'll strangle, how can I be so similar to Uzumaki Kushina when I'm irritable!" Don't let her beat me, though! ”

The next moment, Aoki didn't give Maitreya a chance to commit violence, and hurriedly changed the topic: "Sister Maitreya, what happened when you sealed the Dragon, and why...... Could it be that Brother Watergate sealed the Dragon! ”

"No, it's me."

Maitreya shook his head when he heard this, and his eyes dimmed a little imperceptibly, and then replied.

Aoki's observation is very keen, and he captured the slightest change in Maitreya's gaze, so his mood became heavy again, but after a while, he was still a little puzzled: "Sister Maitreya, didn't you say that using the sealing technique of the shrine maiden clan will consume the user's life force, so ......?"

"That's right! It's going to drain the user's life force, but I didn't say that the user has to die! It's just that the life span of the user will be shortened! Maitreya explained.

Aoki raised his gaze and continued to ask, "Shortened!" How much shortened? ”

"Hmm...... I might have seven or eight years to live! Maitreya said with a look of nonchalance.

"Seven or Eight Years ......"

Aoki muttered when he heard this.

After a while, it dawned on him that Maitreya was now in the village of the witch, and what about her daughter Aster in the theater version?

Aoki hadn't heard Maitreya talk about what daughters she had, which meant that Aster hadn't been born at this time, so Maitreya wouldn't have died.
