Zongman: I was a ninja in the age of monsters

Shikoku Island.

The name is actually a political concept.

Its original name was Iyo no Nimejima – but obviously, it’s not as memorable as Shikoku Island.

It is an island with an “exotic” atmosphere.

Because it is isolated by the sea, the customs of the island are very different from those of Honshu.

These differences are reflected in many places: climate, specialties, eating habits, and so on.

But for the Southern Star, the most striking feature of this island is actually only one:

Tanuki.

“A lot of tanukis!”

Fujiwara Meihong exclaimed.

She had never seen so many tanukis, swaggering.

In contrast, humans seem to be precious animals worth protecting, and I haven’t seen a few along the way.

But Ibuki Cuika’s face showed a familiar expression:

“Because Shikoku itself is the land of tanukis.”

That’s true.

In fact, each type of yokai has its own base camp.

For example, ghosts, their home base is hell.

And the base camp of the tanuki monster is Shikoku Island.

“It is said that there are eight hundred and eighty tanukis on this island.”

Eight hundred and eighty different tanuki tribes occupy the entire island of Shikoku, making this a real demon country.

And the leader of these tanuki monsters, the Hidden God Punishment Department Tanuki, is even more famous, and has been famous all over the world since the Heian period.

“He’s not bad.”

“Since the death of the former Lord of the Western Kingdom, the Dog General, he has led the Tanuki family to seek the status of the Lord of the Western Country.”

“Oh… Don’t look at me like that, I listen to my mother too. ”

Ibuki commented without salt, looking like someone was pointing out.

However, when she felt Nanxing’s slightly surprised gaze, she instantly changed her words.

——Now she is more and more in the role of [Ghost Princess].

Or rather, she is the princess of the ghost clan herself.

It’s just that because the strength is too strong, and the ghost race dragon is leaderless, he was forcibly pushed to the position of the ghost race king by other ghosts.

“Carefully calculate, we seem to be only this year… More than three thousand years old? ”

“Still a real baby!”

……

Landing on the southern star of Shikoku Island, holding more than 3,000 loli monsters in one hand, and leading an undead girl over 800 years old, he explored the island.

He first needs to confirm his location.

Then go to look for the “bamboo forest that can be found by chance”.

But for him, who is not familiar with life, this is undoubtedly a completely impossible thing.

“I’ll help you find it!”

The enthusiastic Fujiwara Meihong took the initiative to help Nanxing take over the job of finding the way.

Then, she jumped gently. The invisible spiritual power condensed into the shape of wings from behind her again, helping her fly.

– Thankfully, she now has control over her power and will no longer burn her clothes.

And after a rough search.

“Found it!”

Fujiwara Meihong in the sky suddenly said.

This instantly lifted Nanxing’s spirit.

So easy to do?

It seems a little too smooth.

“Found what?”

In a hurry, Nanxing, who couldn’t care about thinking so much, quickly asked.

Then, he knew.

Perhaps, in the beginning, he should not have expected too much from Fujiwara Meihong.

“Found a group of youkai who are fighting.”

“It was a herd of tanukis, and a herd of … Well, rabbits? ”

“……”

Full of joy and failure.

Nanxing breathed a sigh of relief.

“It’s okay too.”

He comforted himself so much.

“Although I didn’t directly find the target, if it was a fight between two sets of youkai… Perhaps there is an opportunity to help one of the parties and become friends with them. ”

“Then, take the opportunity to ask the other side about the situation.”

Nanxing thought very well.

Helping the weak side with the posture of a strong person, so as to gain the friendship of the weak party, is also a common routine for all royal novels and anime.

However, when he followed Fujiwara’s guidance and really came to that “battlefield”.

Only to find out the progress of this war. It didn’t seem to be what he expected it to be at all.

……

It’s a war between monsters.

As for the two sides of the war, as Fujiwara Meihong said, they are the youkai tanuki cat and the youkai rabbit.

However, the battle between these two races did not end with a big victory for the strong side as ordinary people thought.

“Please, Lord Tanuki, please let us go.”

This is the first sight.

A small rabbit youkai with small arms and legs, a pair of big ears on its head, and a pink ball-shaped tail on its butt, asked a fierce tanuki with a pitiful expression.

Behind her, there are more than a dozen rabbit monsters that have not yet taken shape, and they are shivering under the surround of nearly a hundred tanuki monsters.

“Well, dare to bully such a cute little rabbit!”

Fujiwara Meihong couldn’t stand it at first.

It turns out that this is indeed a world of beauty.

As long as you are cute enough, even a youkai will have no problem.

But just when Fujiwara Mei Hong rolled up her sleeves and was ready to start. Nanxing stretched out his arm and blocked her movement.

“Wait a minute.”

He said with some solemnity.

With the ninja instinct, he could see at a glance that this rabbit was not simple.

As for where she is not simple….

All right.

After opening the Sharingan eye, Nanxing finally saw it.

Hidden in the newly turned dirt, there was a constant hint of white smoke.

The smoke was light.

If you don’t look closely, you can’t find out.

Of course, even if you look closely, you won’t care too much.

——Well, fogging is a very common thing by the sea.

But if these white smokes… It’s poisonous smoke!

“Poof—”

“Poof—”

“Poof—”

“……”

The fall of a body represents the great failure of the tanuki family’s “catching rabbit monsters” operation.

It also announces the real beginning of the “Jedi Strike” of the rabbit family.

“Hmph, play with the old lady!”

I saw that after the leading tanuki monster fell.

The poor little rabbit monster just now didn’t pretend.

She stretched out a finger, buttoned her nose, and pulled two small clumps of slightly moist grass out of her nose, and unceremoniously dropped them on the body of the tanuki monster.

Then, directly exhaled, and a bloodthirsty light bloomed in his bright red eyes:

“Little ones, follow me.”

“Strip off this group of stinky tanuki cats who don’t know whether they are dead or alive!”
