Naruto: The Whirlpool Noodles from Infinite Tsukiyomi

Chapter 244 You’d better tell her yourself

Author: love to reason

Witch, Zhu is also a woman who can do invisible things and use dance to subdue the gods. It looks like a person dancing with two clothes. It agrees with the work. In ancient times, Wu Xian first became a witch. All witches are followers of witch.

Menma had also heard of the existence of "witchcraft" in his previous life.

However, the "witches" in the previous life were only natural leaders respected by the ancients. Their power was based on natural knowledge, creative contributions in production technology, and noble conduct that benefited the whole people.

The actual ability is to master astronomical calculations, knowledge of meteorological laws, geographical knowledge, tool measurement, construction technology, medicine, divination, etc. to guide the production and life of the ethnic group.

And in this world where "extraordinary" abilities exist...

Looking at the records on the scroll, Menma murmured in a low voice: "The wisdom and dexterity of witches can reach the heaven and earth, exchange information between gods and humans, master the movement patterns of the sun, moon and stars, and mobilize the power of ghosts and gods to eliminate disasters and bring happiness to people."

, seance, dream interpretation, prophecy, praying for rain, healing, astrology..."

The so-called "power of ghosts and gods" is the power of this world, which is also the so-called "natural energy".

"So, does witchcraft use human beings' belief in themselves to gather the "wish power" of all living beings into themselves, and use this to mobilize the power of heaven and earth?"

Menma frowned and thought secretly.

In the myths of both worlds, there are legends about the power of wishes of all living beings.

It is a kind of power generated by sentient beings' yearning for a better life and emotional fluctuations, and it contains the purest blessing.

The "evil god" who has been absorbed by the "Goddess" is essentially collecting the will power of believers.

This is the so-called "spiritual power" and "yin escape power".

Of course, if you want to gain power, you have to pay a price.

"In other words, Lord Maitreya..."

Menma looked up at Miroku and asked with a curious expression: "You and the demon are two sides of the same coin?"

"You're right."

Maitreya nodded slowly: "If you want to use the power of witches, you need to accept people's faith and worship."

"But while accepting worship, if you don't have enough determination to stick to yourself, you will be assimilated into what the believer wants you to be, and your mind will even be polluted by the believer's evil thoughts."

"Sprites are alien clones that were separated by me to withstand evil thoughts, and the remaining sentient beings' wish power is the pure spiritual power that can be absorbed and digested."

This is a unique method for ancient humans to utilize "natural energy".

However, after the Six Paths Immortals established the "Ninja Sect", they sowed the seeds of chakra, and the "shamans" with harsh training conditions gradually withdrew from the stage of history.

With the development to this day, only the lineage of shrine maidens from the Kingdom of Demons has been passed down.

"Interesting, this is my second time coming into contact with the so-called power of will."

The first time was when I used the "Nine-faced Beast" to absorb the "Evil God".

After understanding the origin and system of "witchcraft", Menma began to calculate its actual role and value.

Three types of ancient witchcraft.

Divine witchcraft uses various techniques to seal the target's body or soul, a technique similar to the sealing technique of the Uzumaki clan.

Divine prayer witchcraft is a method of communicating with believers remotely through prayer, similar to the ability of an evil god to establish a connection with Hidan.

Divine witchcraft, which is the precognitive ability commonly used by witches, can predict the death of believers and major events that affect the world.

"The witchcraft system is perfect for me."

As the national master and behind-the-scenes operator of Snow Country, Menma has a lot of room to operate.

The most important thing is that with "Zero Tail", "Enlightenment" and "Evil God", he doesn't have to worry about the negative effects of "Wish Power" at all.

You only need to use three "monsters" to purify your willpower. There is no need to divide yourself into positive and negative parts like a witch.

"This is a good deal."

Menma put away the scroll, smiled with satisfaction, and asked proactively: "Well, Sir Maitreya, I need to confirm the transaction conditions again."

"You hope that I can protect Shion and prevent the demon from escaping and causing trouble to the ninja world, right?"

"Yes, there are only these two conditions." Maitreya nodded slowly and reached out to touch Ziyuan's head.

"There is no way to escape the fate of a shrine maiden. Shion's birth is doomed to be unfortunate, but as a mother, I still hope that she can have a normal childhood."

Even if this child is destined to die like her.

Ziyuan raised her head in confusion and looked at her "mother".

"Well, there are two conditions."

Menma narrowed his eyes and raised the corners of his mouth: "But in my opinion, this is a condition."

"As long as we get rid of the monsters, won't it be settled once and for all?"

Hearing this, Maitreya was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "It's impossible."

"The sprite and the shrine maiden are two sides of the same coin. As long as the shrine maiden does not die, the sprite will never be eliminated. If the shrine maiden dies, the sprite will lose complete control and cause immeasurable disaster..."

Menma waved his hand and interrupted: "Ah~ I understand, of course I understand."

"There will be no one in this world who understands the dark side better than me."

The dark side actually exists in everyone.

However, it is obviously a failure and undesirable approach for a miko to strip away her dark side.

In other words, it was precisely because of the miko's first attempt that it caused endless troubles for subsequent mikos.

Because the sprite and the miko are one and the same, the miko can only choose to seal the sprite.

But there is no permanent seal in this world.

Even the "Six Paths Earth Explosion Star" jointly performed by the two brothers Otsutsuki Hagoromo and Otsutsuki Hamura, a powerful sealing technique performed by a being at the level of six paths, will gradually dissipate over time.

Not to mention the seal cast by the miko.

As time goes by, various flaws will inevitably appear in the seal, and every occurrence of flaws is a test of life and death for the witch.

Because the strength of "sprites" and shrine maidens are close, and "sprites" obviously have no such thing as a moral bottom line, so in a confrontation, the shrine maiden is often at a disadvantage.

Therefore, stripping and sealing the dark side from one's own body is nothing more than drinking poison to quench thirst and causing endless harm.

"I think back then, the darkness in my heart was much stronger than yours, and I didn't even think about forcibly removing it from my body."

Menma scratched his chin and explained: "Keep the darkness in your body, use your own will to seal it, fight against it, temper it, and fight against it."

"Then, little by little, little by little, you turn it into your own power."

Escape may be useful, but Menma prefers challenges and solving problems once and for all.

"...You said it too easily."

After a moment of silence, Maitreya smiled bitterly and said: "Darkness is the self, so I can't imagine how you defeated the self."

In her perception, the flame of desire in Menma's heart was stronger than most people's.

Then, relatively speaking, the pressure he endured was even more terrifying.

"The sprites possess many evil secret arts, many of which even I don't know much about."

Without worrying about it anymore, Maitreya shook his head and continued: "I still have some things to ask of you. I hope you can promise me."

"What's up?"

Jingle bell…jingle bell…

Maitreya took out a Kagura bell from his arms and said: "Aster's power has surpassed that of previous generations of shrine maidens, and is far superior to mine, but for her at a young age, this power is a disaster rather than a blessing."

"The sealing instrument made by myself can temporarily suppress Ziyuan's power, protect her from this power, and prevent her from inadvertently harming others."

Then, she took out another scroll: "This contains the sealing technique of the witch lineage. This is also part of the reward for this commission. You can teach Ziyuan to her when she becomes an adult."

Menma took the scroll and the sealing artifact and looked at them in his hands.

This sealing instrument contains a very strange natural energy, which should be a precise sealing technique constructed using divine witchcraft.

If you guessed correctly.

It should be similar to the "Four Elephants Seal" in Naruto's body, which can help him master powers that he is unfamiliar with.

Judging from Miroku's performance, Menma could tell that she had made up her mind to seal the demon with all her strength, even if it meant sacrificing herself.

but……

"It feels so troublesome."

Menma scratched his cheek: "It's up to you to tell Shion these words yourself when she grows up."

"After all, this is the responsibility you should bear as a mother. As for the sprites and the Huangquan Sect..."

After a pause, Menma smiled and said, "I will deal with him."

Hearing this, Maitreya couldn't help but be stunned.

There was no murderous intent. On the contrary, his tone was very calm, as if he was just stating a fact that was bound to happen.

"Then, let's give it a try."

………………

At the same time, the mountains in the hinterland of the Ghost Country.

Shrouded in mist, it looks eerie and mysterious.

"Is this the place where the souls of monsters are sealed?"

Orochimaru and Huang Quan walked on the road and continued to move deeper into the mountains.

The further you go, the more you can clearly feel the dull pressure.

The power of darkness is becoming more and more powerful, able to evoke the most primitive desires in people's hearts, thereby achieving the effect of controlling people's hearts.

If the chakra is not strong enough and the consciousness is not strong enough, human beings may turn into playthings in the hands of monsters in an instant.

However, the current power of the monster can only act within a very small range.

The soul and body of the monster have always been sealed separately.

The physical body was sealed in an active volcano temple in the Land of Swamp for isolation and disposal.

The soul is guarded by shrine maidens throughout the ages.

If a monster wants to be resurrected in a complete form, its body and soul must be united to regain its full power.

These conditions are very harsh.

But the witch was besieged by the stone statue army in the main hall, so they had the opportunity to come and look for the ghost's soul.

Just when Orochimaru and Huangquan were deep into the mountains.

Swish, brush, brush!!

Kabuto Yakushi's figure appeared beside the two of them.

Orochimaru glanced at him: "It's too slow. He obviously came to the Kingdom of Ghosts before us, but he arrived at this time."

The smile on Kabuto Yakushi's face remained unchanged and he explained: "I met an old friend on the road, so I wasted some time."

"Old friend?"

Huang Quan understood what he meant and asked, "Do we need to change our plans?"

Yakushi Kabuto adjusted his glasses: "No, from the information I have collected so far, there is no need to make unnecessary changes to the plan. Just continue to act according to the original plan."

"Even if something unexpected happens, I believe Lord Orochimaru has a solution."

Hearing this, Orochimaru just grinned, noncommittal.

He never does anything he's not sure about.

Soon, the three of them arrived at the end of the mountain range, and what appeared in front of them was an extremely huge palace.

The internal space of the side hall is very wide, and in the center is a circular altar engraved with mysterious runes.

In the center of the altar, there is an ancient stone door that is closed tightly.

And in the closed ancient stone door, there was a purple-black mist, seeping out like threads through the cracks in the door.

Obviously, the seal here has been leaked, and the monsters on the other side of the stone gate are eroding the seal.

The purple-black mist was like some kind of poison targeting humans. Ordinary ninjas who came into close contact would probably have been deprived of their sanity by this part of the darkness.

Fortunately, it seems that Huang Quan's identity has been recognized, and the purple-black mist has somewhat restrained.

Orochimaru licked his lips and said with interest: "Is this the altar that seals the monsters?"

Huang Quan's face was full of excitement, and he nodded and said: "However, there is only the soul part of the monster here, and the body is sealed in the Swamp Kingdom."

Yakushi Kabuto looked at the position of Shimen and narrowed his eyes slightly.

There is a strange natural energy remaining on the stone door, but the energy is very weak. If this continues, it will only be a matter of time before the seal is opened.

Orochimaru formed the "Four Elephant Seal" seals with his hands, then lightly pressed his palms on the stone door, and chakra began to circulate in his body.

But the purple-black mist has not been reduced by the double sealing technique.

Seeing this, Orochimaru's eyes flashed with surprise: "Is the four-image seal that can suppress demons ineffective?"

Obviously this sealing technique has a powerful binding effect on tailed beasts, but why does it have no effect on monsters and sprites?

"A monster is not an ordinary monster. It is a special monster naturally formed by mixing all the darkness in human hearts with chakra."

Huang Quan explained from the side: "The only way to deal with the monsters is to have the witches seal them."

"Can't it be solved from the root cause?"

Huang Quan grinned and said with a slightly contented smile: "The darkness of human beings is the source of monsters. Unless all humans are eliminated, they will still be intertwined with each other and merged with chakra to give birth to new monsters."

This is somewhat similar to the "immortal nature" of tailed beasts.

After a tailed beast is killed, it will be reborn randomly in a corner of the ninja world.

Therefore, choosing to use seals for suppression is indeed the best way to deal with it.

Orochimaru's eyes flickered: "I really want to put this monster on the operating table."

Just then.

"Ho ho ho."

A spine-chilling sneer came from behind the stone door.

Even though they were separated by the stone gate, the sound could still clearly ring in the ears of the three of them.

"You have found two very capable helpers, Huang Quan."
