[ Near the Second Layer of the Barrier. ]
" It seems the kid's body had more to go. " said the cloaked robed man, he kills many men, using his right hand alone.
[ Attribute #1: "Black Dragon of Destruction's Hand" Relic ]
" It really fits the little hand, kukuku... "
" Perhaps I should grow the body a little... " the man then grows his 'body', it turns it into a teenager-like.
" This would do... "
" Now, to obtain the other one that the mouse secretly kept from my sight. "
" The one he didn't pollute using his sneaky knowledge. "
...
( Meanwhile. )
( In another Realm. )
" Where am I? " Akafushi asks herself, seeing herself chained in a golden place.
Seeing around, she tries to recount what happened.
" I've been, sealed... " Akafushi quickly recounts it, realizing this is the Sakurazaka Village Head Shaman's doing.
" Head Shaman Yamagami, grrh... " Akafushi grunts while increasing her senses, since she's adept on both Mana and Ki, she then felt a great pressence around her place.
"( Monsters, Beasts, Humans, and Hybrids. )"
"( Are we inside some sort of Sealed Realm or something... )"
"( Karkh! )" Akafushi suddenly feels pain, sensing something is around them all, afflicting them.
"( This pressence... )"
"( It's the same as the 'Black Box' within Master Yakujin's Treasure Room, this- )"
"( There's a 'Relic' in here... )" Akafushi asks while she struggles, outside the realm she's in, which is inside a huge Golden Crystal, a man chuckles, the man who captured them all.
" Struggle, O captured ones. " Head Shaman Yamagami says while witnessing what happened inside with the help of the Crystal.
" Soon you all will be used, I promise. " he states while chuckling.
During his fun, suddenly a report showed up.
" Head Shaman, Head Shaman! "
" Oh, what is it!? " Yamagami gets pissed as the man bring urgent news.
" Head Shaman, the Barrier... "
" The Barrier has been breached! " he tells Yamagami that.
" WHAT!? HOW!? " Yamagami asks the man.
" The barrier you say? which one? which layer? " Yamagami asks while reminding that the Village is covered by four layers of the barrier, covering all it's buildings during Yamagami's plot to kill Yakujin with the 'Relic' Chimera.
" Now, it's going to reach the second one, Head Shaman! "
" A cloaked robed short man, killing many of our Defense Warriors and Shamans, even the ones you borrowed from the 'Justice Union'. "
" What!? " Yamagami asks, wondering who is this assailant who interfered at the times sudden.
" Who is this intruder... " Yamagami grunts, he dismissed the man and ordered him to rally more forces to deal with it.
" I want the intruder killed in the spot, show no mercy! " Yamagami orders, as he thinks why there's something like that at times like this.

[ Sakurazaka Village ]
" While the Fox deals with that 'polluted tail' of mine, guess it's time to retrieve the 'other one' in this place. "
" Sneaky mouse, decided to hide it using his Shamanism. "
" Perhaps one of those 'Techniques' those so called 'Justice Union' used to fend off beings like us. "
" A group of mice (humans), using Ki or whatever that is as well as their 'Techniques'... " the man says while destroying the ones coming towards him, his hand smacks them all, obliterating the enemies' body as it splatter everywhere.
" Kukukuku... " as he chuckles, one of the Village Warriors then uses his Martial Arts, using it to attack the robed man.
" [ Justice Fist of Humanity ] " the Warrior attacks, he hits the man with a Ki-imbued punch, hitting the man hard.
" Keukukeu. " the robed man felt it and quickly deal with the unlucky Warrior, making him the next final victim in the Second Layer.
[ Second Layer Cleared ]
" Humans..., always innovate, to plot against those above them. " said the robed man, touching the received wound and healed it for a bit, for the body, while he destroys the Final Layer of the Village's barrier, cracking it with his hand.
" Anyone home? " the man asks as the Villagers from all caste confront him with their weapons.
" Halt, stranger! "
" Don't take another step! "
Seeing them, instead of afraid for their numbers, the robed man smirked for he for he then opens his cloak's hood, revealing his face.
" You're a... "
" Teenager...? " said the Villagers, seeing the man's face, a face they felt so familiar within their eyes.
" It's been a while, although this happens just days after that one, right..., my dear Villagers. " the teenager (man) says to them.
" Who are you? " asks the Villagers while their minds simply recognizes the intruders face.
" Ah, look at your faces... "
" Confused, trying to process things as you see a quite familiar face... "
" The one you sacrificed to appease the 'Fox' on top of these mountains, the one you Plot to fight against for always stealing your rain. "
" The 'Sacrifice Lamb Blood' child, Shiro... "
" Isn't that, what you called him, hmm...? " said 'Shiro' as he smirks while revealing his dangerous aura towards the villagers.
" Shiro..., 'White'... "
" The common skin color from those coming from 'Westerios'... "
" Isn't that why you called this boy that, my dear villagers? " 'Shiro' points on himself, as he introduces his given name by the villagers. A name given to refer his Western Descendancy, 'Nishino Shiro', meaning 'White West' or vice versa, regarding on how the villagers want to call it.
" Shi...ro... " the villagers now realized who are they facing.
" It, can't be..., you... " the villagers remembered how they sacrificed little Shiro.
" You, you... " they all shiver, as if they're seeing a ghost.
" We thought... you were... "
" Dead? " 'Shiro' asks them as he chuckles.
" Oh, this boy will be, soon. " he says to them in his happiness.
" Once I'll rip apart your Head Shaman into shreds! "

Extra:
Shiro's given name by the villagers is Shiro-Nishino (白西野). Meaning, a "White West" perhaps, a name refering to him as a 'White Boy' and his family's original roots from 'Westerios', a made-up name by the villagers to call him since his real name is not known.
The Nation this all takes in is named 'Land of Cherry Blossoms, Sakurakoku'. This is one of the Nations in Easterion.
