"So, Mikome, can you really use the power in the bell to seal the dragon?"

Qiu Dao Dingza, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly blinked and asked.

Maitreya nodded when she heard this, but her face looked a little strange, and then she said with some heaviness: "The sealing technique I use is a little different from the one used by you ninjas, and it has been passed down from generation to generation by the shrine maiden clan...... Possess a powerful seal power, but at the cost of draining the user's life force. ”

"What! Drain the user's life force! Doesn't that mean ......"

When Mizumon and the others heard Maitreya say that the use of the witch clan's sealing technique required the user to make a sacrifice, they all looked at her with a solemn look in their eyes.

Even Aoki, who had always been unhappy with Maitreya before, put away his indifferent posture, and his heart was suddenly silent.

It seems that this is the reason why Maitreya died shortly after sealing the monster in the later theatrical version.

Seeing that Aoki and the others suddenly sat up, Maitreya hurriedly opened his mouth to distract them: "But it's nothing, this is the mission of our witch clan, what is it to sacrifice me alone, my witch clan has been worshiped by the country of ghosts for generations, I don't know how many people have died because of protecting us." If I don't, how can I be worthy of them! ”

Shuimen and the others did not speak, still looking silent, obviously after hearing her words, their heavy hearts did not weaken by half a minute.

After a while, Mizumon decisively said to Aoki and the others: "The plan of the shrine maiden, we will put it on hold for the time being, and we must not rely on sacrificing others to seal the dragon until it is absolutely necessary."

Qiu Dao Ding Zuo and the oil girl Zhi Wei heard this, they both nodded in agreement, although the two have no intersection with Maitreya, let alone any bond, but the two who can distinguish between right and wrong agree with the views of the water gate.

Aoki looked at Maitreya and nodded.

Shuimen's eyes turned to the oil girl Zhiwei and said: "Zhiwei, how is your parasite recovering, will it affect the combat power!"

"No, the parasites, though they suffered heavy losses in the last battle, are now about as numerous as they were at my peak." Oil Girl Zhiwei shook her head and said.

Hearing his answer, Mizuto looked at Aoki and Akido Dingza again, and then asked, "Dingza, Aoki, you guys are okay!" Aoki: How is your body feeling recovering! ”

"I'm fine, Chakra is fully recovered, eat a little more, and should behave better than before!" Akido Ding Za patted his chest and said.

Immediately afterward, Aoki also said that he had no problem at all and could continue the mission at any time.

"Shhhh......h So be it......"

Shuimen thought for a while, and according to the abilities and characteristics of the three people, the responsibilities of the three people in this plan were completely arranged.

Maitreya sat cross-legged on the tatami mat, listening to the arrangement of Bo Feng Shuimen, his face gradually showed a look of annoyance, and then frowned and said, "No! I have to go too! Although I know you don't want me to sacrifice myself, there is a 1 in 10,000 chance that if something happens, only I can seal the dragon! ”

……

The five of Aoki are advancing rapidly in the woods of the Oni Country, with the Bo Feng Shui Gate at the front, Aoki and Maitreya in the middle, and the remaining Akido Dingza and Oil Girl Shiwei at the end.

Maitreya followed Aoki's side, not slow at all, and she looked at the mountains and forests in the distance in front of her, her eyes showing a heavy color.

Then, she lowered her head and glanced at Aoki, who was also running fast, with a hesitant expression on her face.

But this expression was only a flash in the pan, and it was quickly hidden.

After about two hours of travel, the three of them came to the western border of the Oni Country.

The country of ghosts is much smaller than the country of fire, and its population is less than one-tenth of that of the country of fire, so there are very few towns inhabited by humans on the land of the land of ghosts, and the border areas are even more deserted.

Aoki and the others did not see a trace of people during these two hours, and as they moved westward, the green vegetation became less and less, and the terrain gradually changed from woods to hills, and then from hills to high-slope loess.

"I've sensed the existence of the Flying Thunder Divine Technique...... It's not far away, it's probably within a radius of five or six kilometers. ”

The water gate, which was at the front of everyone, suddenly stopped, then was silent for a while, and then spoke.

Although Watergate defeated the difficult Shura before, he did not get rid of it, but left the Flying Thunder God spell on him without Shura noticing, and deliberately sold it to leave.

Now it's finally time to use this Flying Thunder Divine Technique, and Water Gate can use the sensing of the Flying Thunder Divine Technique to find the specific location of Shura, so as to find out the otherworldly monster behind him.

As for why he didn't just use the Flying Thunder God Technique to go to Shura's location, one was because Shuimen and the others didn't know the situation on Shura's side, if they rushed over, his surroundings were full of enemy troops, and wouldn't the five people of Shuimen just finish playing.

Another reason is that there are a large number of people teleported through time and space, and the mastery of the Flying Thunder God by the Water Gate is not as good as that of the Third World War.

After the water gate stopped, he turned to look at the four Aoki behind him, and then said solemnly: "We are not far from the place where the nest of the dragon is suspected to be, and we don't know the means of the dragon, so please be cautious and try to hide your own breath so as not to be discovered!"

Hearing this, Aoki nodded like the three of Maitreya, and then saw that the water gate turned his head and continued to sweep forward, but the speed was significantly slower.

Then, he followed.

……

Beneath the deep and narrow valley, a huge cave hides behind a multitude of strange rocks.

The ground at the bottom of the valley, which was not so flat, was covered with stone debris, and on top of this layer of debris were countless footprints of various shades.

Suddenly, from the cliff above the cave, a man of medium stature jumped down, and the man was dressed in a white robe, and the hat on the white robe covered his face.

He reached the bottom of the valley, and without hesitation he bypassed the strange rocks that blocked the great cave, and then drove into the cave with ease.

The cave was dark, and it was difficult to see the five fingers when he stretched out his hand, but the man walked extremely fast in the cave, and there was no pause in the middle of the cave, and he went directly to the depths.

After walking for about half an hour, the man suddenly stopped, and then stretched out his right hand, which was hidden under the sleeve robe, and the index finger and thumb were touched, and the friction instantly produced a flame.

With the index finger that carries the flames, light the oil lamp hanging on the wall.

As the first oil lamp lit up, as if by magic, several oil lamps next to each other were also lit one after another, stretching downward.

An extremely large number of oil lamps lit up, and the space in the cave suddenly brightened, and what appeared in the eye was an earthen staircase that stretched deeper into the ground.

The white-robed man looked at the bottomless staircase, and slowly lifted the white hat that covered his face, only to see that what was exposed to the light was a face covered with hideous wounds.

"Cough! When I get the power from Lord Dragon, I must kill the golden-haired Konoha ninja! No! Killing him will not cure the hatred in my heart! ”

He stroked his rough face, his eyes full of hatred.

This person is none other than Shura, who fought with Watergate, and the wound on his face was blown out by Watergate with a spiral pill.

But Shura didn't know that Shuimen released water when he fought with him until the last moment, and he always thought that his strength was similar to Shuimen, but it was just a poor move in the battle that he lost to Shuimen.

After some verbal repercussions, he walked up the stairs that led to the depths of the earth, and made a quick heading downward.

At Shura's speed, he quickly reached the end of the stairs, and at the end of it was a wide crypt that continued to go deeper.

Without a pause, Shura continued to walk into the crypt.

After a while, he came to a huge portal, and when he looked inside from the door, he saw that the space inside was huge.

On the flat ground around them, countless stone puppets stood silently in place, their lifeless eyes all looking reverently at the black cave in the middle of the huge space.

After Shura entered the portal, he also instantly set his eyes on the very strange-looking cave, and his expression was respectful, and he looked like a loyal slave at this time.

He got closer and closer to the black cave, and his speed slowed down, and he looked up at the black cave again, and immediately lowered his head.

"You're here!"

Suddenly, an ancient, dull voice came from the black cavern.

Shura, who heard this voice, did not wait to get close to the black cave, knelt down on one knee in place, and then bowed his head and said, "Mighty Lord Dragon, I am your most faithful servant, Shura."

"Why, why are you only coming back now! Is it because you screwed up what I asked you to do? ”

As soon as Shura finished speaking, a gloomy laugh came from the black cave, and then he said to Shura, who was kneeling in front of him.

When Shura heard this, his eyes flickered, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead, obviously he had a fear of the dragon from the depths of his soul.

"Why don't you speak? Do you think that silence can absolve you of all responsibility? The dragon said again.

Shura's body trembled, and then gritted his teeth and explained, "Lord Dragon, relying on the power you gave us, we could completely kill the witch Maitreya. But Maitreya suddenly appeared beside four Konoha ninjas, they were extremely powerful, and almost all of us were planted on those four people. ”

"Konoha ninja ......," the dragon muttered.

"Yes, there are four Konoha ninjas to protect the shrine maiden Maitreya, and one of them has a special spatial ninjutsu, which is unguardable, and his subordinates' faces are injured by that ninja!" Shura hurriedly continued.

"And how did you escape?"

The dragon was located in the black cave, and his form could not be seen from the outside, but he questioned after listening to Shura's words.

Shura felt that the anger in the tone of the dragon spirit gradually subsided, and he was very frightened in his heart suddenly relaxed, and then lowered his head and his eyes lit up, and said to the dragon: "Even if that ninja is very difficult, but after all, his subordinates have obtained the power of Lord Dragon, and no matter how you say it, it will not be worse than him." Although he wounded his subordinates' faces, it was still difficult to keep me! ”
