Chapter 120 - Mōryō in Action

"Moryo, you've already possessed the daimyo's body, haven't you?" Kiyoshi spoke.

In the original story, Moryo was a character that Naruto had solved with a single Super Chakra Rasengan.

It was just his immortal nature that made him difficult to deal with.

If he couldn't beat him, Kiyoshi could run away at any time.

Also, there's Minato. He can directly take them all away in an instant.

Miroku's expression changed slightly. Just as she was about to say something, an aged and raspy voice appeared in the hall.

"I should have used tough methods from the beginning."

A stream of purple-black chakra enveloped the Land of Demons' daimyo, just like a Jinchuriki entering Tailed Beast Mode.

These chakra emanations, like mist, made people feel chills down their spines.

"Are you really going to be stubborn?"

After a brief moment of daze, Miroku immediately reprimanded the Land of Demons' daimyo.

In her mind, the balance had already tilted towards the people of the Land of Demons.

Sealing Moryo was the duty of successive priestesses. If the Land of Demons' daimyo was stubborn, she could only put aside her personal feelings and perform the seal.

"Miroku, why won't you agree with what I said?"

From the daimyo's body, enveloped in purple-black mist, came his own voice.

"With Moryo's power, plus your technique, ruling this world will be as easy as flipping your hand."

Boom!

Thick black mist, like a flood from a burst dam, instantly engulfed the entire hall.

Innumerable tentacles emerged from the mist, sticky and twisted, vaguely outlining a ferocious dragon-shaped silhouette.

As Moryo's roar echoed, the foundations around the palace trembled violently, the walls cracked, and the pillars collapsed.

"Lord Daimyo… Lord Daimyo has been possessed by Moryo."

The guards widened their frightened eyes, their bodies stiff

They barely suppressed the fear in their hearts, guarding in front of the priestess.

"Minato-sensei, let's go."

Kakashi frowned and drew his short sword.

Their mission was to guard the priestess. Since there really was a so-called Moryo, then they also had to ensure the priestess's safety.

Ninjas who cannot complete their missions are ultimately useless.

"Be careful."

Minato's expression was solemn. He took out several specially made kunai from his bag and quickly threw them to several places.

This would give him greater mobility, allowing him to freely teleport using his Space-Time Ninjutsu to the points marked by these special kunai.

Kurenai and Rin stood up, quickly assuming battle stances.

Asuma took out his chakra blade, Obito carried a black pot in one hand and a kunai in the other, and immediately put down his goggles to protect his eyes.

Kiyoshi then took out his sword.

He had to force Moryo out. Otherwise, they would not be able to protect Miroku until she would give birth.

By the time she would give birth, the Third Great Ninja War would be almost over.

Looking at the massive Moryo, a pressure instinctively enveloped Kiyoshi.

Kiyoshi's Sharingan spun rapidly in his eyes, unleashing his dōjutsu to its utmost limit.

All this time, Kiyoshi hadn't truly gone all out.

His victory over Pakura was due to an information gap, preventing her from fully utilizing her advantage, Scorch Release.

Now that Pakura knows his taijutsu is strong, she will definitely be more cautious the next time they face each other.

Only Mei could be manipulated at will.

Gradually, Kiyoshi felt a sense of excitement within him. Suddenly, Kiyoshi could feel his eyes twitching.

This was a sign of his dōjutsu rippling.

'So that's how it is?'

The Sharingan is a reflection of the deepest part of the human heart.

Kiyoshi understood. It wasn't that he was bloodthirsty, but rather a release of emotions.

Just like his appreciation of "culture".

The long-standing sense of unease made Kiyoshi want to destroy everything.

When he was born, his father left, and Kiyoshi could only barely survive with the occasional care from neighbors, coupled with the knowledge of an adult.

Even after arriving in Konoha, nothing had fundamentally changed.

The future Third Great Ninja War, the Nine-Tails' attack, and the Uchiha Clan Massacre were still problems that urgently needed to be solved.

A slight carelessness could turn him into a corpse.

And even if he returns to the Land of Lightning, due to his lack of strength, he will be turned into a breeding pig.

'Already on the path to death.'

Kiyoshi gently touched his eyelid.

Then things would be easier.

The second method to quickly enhance his dōjutsu.

The method is only…

Whoosh!

A wisp of electric arc appeared beneath Kiyoshi's feet, and he was the first to rush out.

In any case, to become a true powerhouse, one must have the heart of a powerhouse and possess rich combat experience.

Even Kaguya, without proper combat experience, could only rely on a surprise attack to severely injure Isshiki.

When she encountered Six Paths Naruto and Sasuke, she was exposed, and Black Zetsu had to act as a strategist.

An inexperienced wannabe who only knows how to squander chakra can never unleash the true power of that chakra.

The scene became incredibly chaotic at this moment.

After Mōryō appeared, several worm-like creatures resembling black maggots crawled out of Yomi's body and entered the bodies of the Land of Demons' ninja.

Their eyeballs flashed with the same color as Moryo's, and then their entire eyeballs turned pitch black.

Their skin turned dark purple, and many strange patterns appeared on the surface of their skin.

Seeing the Land of Demons' ninja, who they usually got along with, turn into monsters in the blink of an eye, made the guards even more fearful.

If they were guarding other officials instead of the priestess, they probably would have run away.

The four Sunagakure ninja were also unable to avoid this chaotic situation and were forced to get involved.

They all used their respective ninjutsu to attack Mōryō's outstretched tentacles and the group of ninjas.

Kakashi's short sword quickly cut off Mōryō's tentacles, but each time they were cut off, they quickly regenerated.

Seeing this, Kakashi used a C-rank Lightning Release ninjutsu, severing a pile of Mōryō's tentacles that were surrounding him.

Unfortunately, Yūki became the first target of the Land of Demons' ninjas, as they clearly wanted to break them down one by one.

Kiyoshi, who was entangled with Mōryō on the side, saw this scene and not only did he not choose to save Yūki, but he also revealed a sinister smile.

Wasn't this an opportunity he had been waiting for?

That old geezer looked at him with displeasure every day, thinking that Kiyoshi had no temper.

Kiyoshi would only repay malice with malice.

Crackle!

A layer of fine electric arcs faintly appeared on Kiyoshi's body, further enhancing his mobility and reflexes.

The sword in his hand ignited with flames, and he continued to fight Mōryō.

Occasionally, if any part of his body was injured, the white snake in his robe would extend its forked tongue and gently lick Kiyoshi's wound.

Soon, a faint pale green light would appear, slowly healing the wound.

The priestess watched Mōryō constantly rushing out, expanding its influence, and remained silent for a long time.

When Mōryō appeared, many guards died to protect her, either killed by Mōryō or by the ninjas loyal to the Land of Demons' daimyo.

Even more distant innocent guards were crushed into a lump by the collapsed buildings.

Miruko felt a hint of regret in her heart. If she had known, she would have directly sealed Mōryō.

Unfortunately, regret came too late, and now she could only try her best to make up for her own mistakes.

Kiyoshi, watching Miruko from behind, knew that the time was ripe.
