Chapter 469: Ziyuan is born! The ghost takes action!
"Yuhi-san..."
Yuhi Getsuryu's forehead beaded with cold sweat as he looked at Yuhi, who stood opposite him with a serious expression.
Yuhi Kurenai was definitely the person in the Yuhi Clan, besides his biological parents, who cared for him the most.
Whether at the Ninja Academy or at other times—
That gentleness, as if etched into her bones, had constantly soothed his timid and insecure heart when he was young.
"Getsuryu, look at me."
"Let me witness your growth during this period."
"Don't disappoint me, and likewise... don't disappoint yourself. You wouldn't want to let down that esteemed person, would you?"
Tanaka Gintoki's outstanding performance had also ignited the fighting spirit in Yuhi's heart.
At this moment, she wanted more than anyone to see how far Yuhi Getsuryu, who once needed her protection, had come on the long path of a Ninja... Land of Demons.
After more than ten days of waiting, Miroku's delivery day finally arrived.
Late at night, the star-studded sky was enveloped by endless dark clouds... Only through the gaps in the clouds could the faint glow of moonlight be seen.
Around the palace, countless bonfires illuminated the area... Innumerable guards, with katanas at their waists and bows on their backs, sternly guarded the palace on all sides.
To prevent Moryo from launching a surprise attack, the Land of Demons had almost mobilized all the power it could use... Although, this power was so minuscule and insignificant in front of truly powerful Ninja.
"Ah... ah..."
Miroku's groans of childbirth continuously echoed in the empty inner hall.
This made Fujiwara Tetsuya, who was sitting at the entrance of the inner hall as the second line of defense, somewhat distracted.
Fortunately, Uchiha Mikoto and Torune Ryoui had both gone into the inner hall to help.
So, at this moment, he had to endure this awkward feeling by himself.
Half an hour later, accompanied by a baby's cry of "Wah wah wah!", it seemed to signal the start of this disturbance...
"Enemy attack!"
"It's Moryo... and its minions have arrived!"
Outside the hall, the guards' panicked roars and the chaotic sounds of battle instantly drowned out the baby's cries inside the hall.
"Have they finally made their move?"
"Moryo... and those fools, they really don't act until they see the rabbit."
Listening to the wails coming from outside the hall, Fujiwara Tetsuya did not choose to go out and meet the enemy immediately. Instead, he took off the katana from his waist, placed it in front of him, and waited quietly.
Knowing it was futile, yet still fighting against a terrifying demon like Moryo... he had to respect the will of these guards of the Land of Demons. Protecting the Priestess and defending the stability of the Land of Demons was the value and meaning of their existence.
Clang~~~
Ten minutes later, amidst the raging winds... the heavy hall door was shattered into pieces. A huge, dark shadow, along with many Ninja empowered by Moryo, appeared in the outer hall.
"Human! What is your name?"
"Why do I feel a powerful force on you?"
The moment Moryo stepped into the outer hall, its attention fell on Fujiwara Tetsuya... At this moment, even its arrogant aura seemed to have reined in considerably.
"Oh~ You don't know me?"
"It seems your Ninja subordinates aren't very good, Moryo?"
"They haven't even done this most basic intelligence work properly."
With a light chuckle, Fujiwara Tetsuya grabbed his katana and slowly stood up. A terrifying aura instantly erupted... Chilling frost continuously spread from the floor beneath his feet, covering the entire outer hall in just a few seconds.
"This aura... how is this possible?"
Feeling the terrifying aura emanating from Fujiwara Tetsuya, many Ninja empowered by Moryo couldn't help but shiver.
Is this truly a power that humans can control?
"Moryo, remember this! My name is Fujiwara Tetsuya, a Ninja of Konoha!"
"All your ambitions will be ended by me here!"
"Mei Zhi Hang~ He is Mei Zhi Hang, one of the strongest Ninja in the Ninja World today!"
The sudden cry of alarm instantly threw the Ninja around Moryo into chaos.
Although Fujiwara Tetsuya had rarely been active in the Ninja World or in the sight of the Five Great Ninja Villages during these three years...
However, during the Second Shinobi World War... the achievements Fujiwara Tetsuya had created were enough for countless Ninja to remember.
"Yomi~ You know him?"
Looking at his rioting human subordinates, Moryo seemed to lose some face and deliberately leaked a wisp of its aura, intimidating everyone.
"Yes~"
"Moryo-sama~"
"This person in front of us is Konoha's... no, he should be the most famous genius Ninja in the Ninja World. He has fought against the Demigod Hanzō, the Third Kazekage of Sunagakure, one of the Five Great Ninja Villages... as well as the Four-Tails Jinchuriki and the One-Tail Jinchuriki. He is an extremely powerful enemy!"
"Oh~ So you are Yomi?"
Fujiwara Tetsuya's curious voice instantly made Yomi's heart skip a beat. He didn't understand... why would a "big shot" like Fujiwara Tetsuya?
Even know his name?
Could it be that their scheme against Priestess Miroku had already been exposed to Konoha?
"Human~ No, Tetsuya-sama, I do not wish to be your enemy or engage in unnecessary battle."
"All I want is Miroku's newly delivered bloodline. Hand her over to me, and I can leave now."
Throughout the long river of time, Moryo... had also fought countless powerful human Ninja and deeply felt how troublesome those top powerhouses standing at the apex of humanity were... Strictly speaking, before completely reclaiming its true power, it did not want to engage in battle with top Ninja like Fujiwara Tetsuya.
"Are you talking about Shion?"
"Hand her over to you?"
"Then what?"
"Let you sweep across the entire Ninja World after you reclaim your true power?"
"Or let you summon more demons to turn the Ninja World into a paradise for demons?"
"Human, you seem to know a lot about me? Did that hateful Miroku tell you?"
Seeing Fujiwara Tetsuya expose its true intentions, Moryo's tone gradually changed. A pressure not weaker than Fujiwara Tetsuya's suddenly erupted at this moment... Endless darkness continuously spread in the void, gradually forming a standoff with the cold light emanating from beneath Fujiwara Tetsuya's feet.
"Yomi, take a few people and retrieve Miroku's daughter for me."
"The rest of you, attack together and kill this hateful human!"
"Do not fear, trust the power Moryo-sama has bestowed upon you..."
"As long as I reclaim my true power, I will build a thousand-year kingdom with you... controlling the entire Ninja World."
...Under Moryo's incitement~
Yomi and the others gradually suppressed the unease in their hearts.
The craving for power and authority within them constantly assailed their nerves.
"Kill... kill this bastard!"
"We are no longer the same as before!"
