Chapter 197 I Was a Priestess My Whole Life
Chapter 197 I Was a Priestess My Whole Life
I go.
Tsunade, reminded by Bai Mo, thought about it and realized it was true.
This is just too hellish.
Especially Tsunade herself, who is a combination of the Senju and Uzumaki clans.
Because of the Yin Seal, she herself possesses a massive amount of chakra.
If the total amount of chakra is truly fixed, wouldn't her Yin Seal be equivalent to performing a vasectomy on the entire world?
Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore.
"I think you're absolutely right."
Tsunade agreed with Bai Mo's statement with a serious expression.
I'm no longer going to dwell on the issue of total chakra levels.
Bai Mo and his group returned to the Kingdom of Ghosts.
Without saying a word, Ziyuan ran back to her room and started packing her things.
After packing her luggage, Shion struggled to drag a large bag to the door before remembering that she hadn't yet explained the matter entrusted to her by the Land of Demons.
Bai Mo and the others stood outside. Uchiha Hikaru had been waiting for a long time, having already helped the guards outside dispel the genjutsu. It was only then that Shion finally came out.
Thinking about it this way, Ziyuan's suggestion to study abroad is actually quite appropriate.
Before today, Ziyuan was a homebody with Yuyu syndrome, who didn't care about or do anything.
The Land of Demons is doing just fine.
The worst-case scenario is that once the demon is gone, Shion will be free from pressure and gain immense power. With nothing else to do, she might start causing chaos and ruin the Land of Demons.
Bai Mo and his group all thought that Zi Yuan was completely ignoring the important matters and packing her luggage inside.
But I didn't blame her.
After all, Ziyuan was a little girl in her early teens who had never been taught anything or experienced anything.
You can't expect her to think from the perspective of the Hokage at the age of seven.
If that's the case, what if Shion launches [Night of Annihilation] in retaliation?
But while Bai Mo and his companions thought this way, the guards had a different opinion.
thump.
The guards didn't believe what Bai Mo and the others had told them, but when they saw Zi Yuan dragging her luggage out, they had no choice but to believe it.
Faced with this situation, led by a few people, everyone knelt down.
"My lady, you can't leave! You can't abandon the Land of Demons!"
That's the attitude, that's the situation.
Even though Ziyuan does nothing, these people insist that she stay.
If one didn't know that these people were truly loyal to Shion, then this situation would seem too much like an attempt to control the priestess and manipulate her to command the other lords.
Ziyuan clutched the opening of her luggage bag, feeling helpless and unsure of what to do in this situation.
—Look, she can't even handle this kind of thing. If you ask her to manage a country, even if the country has a small population, with only one or two villages, that would be absurd.
Fortunately, Ziyuan now has a solution—don't be afraid when you encounter something confusing, face it with a smile...and then ask Baimo.
Ziyuan looked at Bai Mo pitifully, seeking help.
Bai Mo leaned forward and whispered a few words in Zi Yuan's ear.
Ziyuan stared at Bai Mo in astonishment.
It's as if it's asking—is this really possible?
Bai Mo smiled and nodded, giving an encouraging gesture.
Encouraged, Ziyuan took a deep breath and raised her head.
He spoke, facing the numerous guards kneeling before him.
"In this land of demons, am I the master, or are you the masters?"
"..."
Upon hearing Ziyuan's words, the kneeling guards below panicked.
They are all loyal subjects, how could they rebel against their superiors and defy the Heavenly Gang?
"My lady, we absolutely dare not!"
"Yes, Lady Shrine Maiden, everyone blames Ashiho. He led the charge. We are all loyal to you!"
As soon as these words were spoken, no one mentioned having Shion stay anymore, and they all began to pledge their loyalty.
"That's fine then. I've made my decision. The affairs of the Land of Demons will be handled by you as usual. I trust your loyalty."
"I'm still too inexperienced. I need to go to Amegakure to learn. Only after I've completed my studies and returned will I be worthy to truly take over Mother's position."
After noticing the change in everyone's attitude, Ziyuan suddenly became confident, her speech became more coherent, and a smile appeared on her face.
"Then may I ask, Your Highness, when do you plan to return? Your duties as a priestess still rest with you..."
A guard asked cautiously.
"Duties? The demons are all dead. Didn't they tell you? The duties of a priestess are long gone."
"I've been a shrine maiden my whole life, can't I enjoy myself a little?"
Ziyuan gave a soft snort.
Uh, it seems like we've been exposed.
It's not that I want to study; it's that I want to abandon my duties as a shrine maiden and enjoy myself.
However, the guards below dared not raise any objections this time.
I wouldn't dare complain that Shion's "lifelong shrine maiden" status only lasted a few years.
He was afraid that if Shion asked him alone, "Who is the master of this demon kingdom, you or me?", the others would rush forward and stab him to death in order to show their loyalty.
Everyone was forced to remain silent.
Bai Mo took out a second set of intelligence and a map and placed them on the ground.
"Let's go here next. After that, we can go back to the village."
Bai Mo pointed to a small island at the top of the map.
"OK."
Ziyuan was studying the map very carefully.
"What do you mean 'okay'? You're going straight back to the village later."
Bai Mo glanced at Zi Yuan, shattering her expectations.
"Huh? Why?"
Ziyuan felt somewhat wronged.
Shion has never left the Land of Demons and is very curious about the outside world.
For her, Amegakure was also a new outside world, but Shion clearly preferred to travel with people she knew, such as Bai Mo.
"A shrine maiden's original duty is to sacrifice, and this sacrifice is for the sake of others, right? It can't be self-sacrifice and self-pity, can it?"
Bai Mo asked a question in return.
Ziyuan still respected her mother, and immediately understood when she heard Bai Mo's words.
"Alright, I won't be a burden. I'm going back to the village."
Ziyuan sighed.
Once unsealed, the priestess possesses explosive power.
She had never learned how to use power; she only knew one sealing technique.
But this one sealing technique alone was enough to seal away the final boss at Bai Mo and his group's next target location.
If you learn some techniques for using power, you could reach the level of a Jonin or higher in no time.
But no matter how capable she is, it's useless.
Ziyuan had personally witnessed the power of Bai Mo and his group.
The priestess's power was slightly stronger than the demon, but not to the point of overwhelming it. Otherwise, there would have been no need to seal her; she could have just killed her like Bai Mo and the others did.
In Bai Mo's hands, the demon was like a helpless lamb to the slaughter.
So it's reasonable that a priestess who has had her powers unsealed would be a burden.
"Wait a minute, who's going to take me home? Am I supposed to go home alone?"
Ziyuan suddenly thought of a question.
Black Earth was heading back to the Land of Earth, while White Ink and the other two continued northeast, intending to sail out to sea.
"I."
Uchiha Hikaru formed a hand seal and created a shadow clone.
"..."
Damn ninjutsu.
Ziyuan muttered to herself, but had no choice but to set off.
