Shion's words shattered Naruto's confidence: "It's useless, I saw your tombstone, Uzumaki Naruto's Tomb, that's your name, right? I've never been to your Konoha Village, but I know you
The tombstone is in the southwest corner of the village, where there are many graves..."
Naruto was completely speechless. The southwest corner was the village cemetery, where the Third Hokage and the others were buried. Should he go too? He really didn't want to die.
Sasuke felt very uncomfortable inside. He didn't have any thoughts of living and dying with Naruto, at least he didn't have such thoughts in his mind. He just felt that if this annoying guy died suddenly, he would feel very uncomfortable.
Sakura also transferred the point from the mortgage to Naruto and asked Shion how to decipher this so-called prophecy.
Ashho advised them to give up such unrealistic thoughts. The witch's prophecies have never failed. If they say he will die, he will definitely die.
Ino thought that there was no need to worry about Asura and Six Paths Sage buying the bottom, so he didn't participate in the conversation at all and just finished his breakfast.
After breakfast, the shrine maiden Shion made preparations to set off.
The previous generation of shrine maidens, Shion's mother, sealed the souls of the monster sprites deep in the Land of Swamp.
Now they are going to the Swamp Country to investigate.
The miko Shion prepared a escort team of a hundred people. After breakfast, Ino and the others followed the large army to the Swamp Country further west.
The great names of the Fire Country are all riding on the bullock cart. Ziyuan, a witch from the far west, is treated even worse. She is kneeling alone on the donkey cart. Apart from her delicate appearance and outstanding temperament, in other aspects she looks no different from a girl going to the country fair.
What a difference.
She had a car to ride on, and Ino and the others could only walk, so just walk. The four of them didn't have any objections to this.
The distance between Oni Country and Swamp Country is not far. It is equivalent to the distance from one village to the other. It can be walked in one day. Not long after leaving Oni Country, Ino sensed something in the air that made people palpitate.
She appeared next to Shion in an instant, and Sasuke frowned. The movements of this first-class player were so incredibly fast that he couldn't even catch up when he opened his Sharingan. Is this the golden flash on the battlefield on the Eastern Front?
Now the team is traveling due west, and Ino points to the northwest: "That direction is the place where your miko's seal is, right?"
Ziyuan didn't speak, just stared at her.
"I have... a very uncomfortable feeling. There seems to be something very scary over there that is squeezing into our world little by little. I can't quite describe it accurately. This thing... this thing
It seems to me that the size is too big. Is that the soul of the monster sprite?"
She felt that these witches must have made a mistake.
She is very knowledgeable about the soul, and no one understands the soul better than her!
The thing that is trying to squeeze in through the gap is definitely not a monster soul. It "looks" very similar to the energy of the witch. It is not sure if it is the same energy. According to her understanding, it is more like some kind of grand will.
The witch didn't tell the truth. Either there was something wrong with her, or there was something wrong with the demon.
No matter what their relationship is, at this moment, the monster sprite must not be let in. It is rumored that sprites can destroy the world. Judging from the chaotic and disorderly atmosphere, this seems to be true...
Ino pointed to the river on the side and asked: "If you walk along this river, you can reach the sealed place, right?"
Shion was still explaining slowly: "Yes, the source of the Marsh River is the Marsh Kingdom, in that direction..."
Ino was even more anxious than she was and grabbed the reins of the donkey cart: "What are you waiting for? The critical moment has come. We should have set off overnight last night! Sit tight, Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura.
Come up!"
Ninjas running with people on their backs are actually uncomfortable for both of them, and it's OK once in a while. But now this barefooted miko looks like she's in average physical condition and can't stand the torment.
Asuma taught Class 10 how to drive a donkey cart, but Class 7 had been fighting and killing. Kakashi obviously did not have this skill. Ino's reaction speed was much faster than that of ordinary ninjas, and he immediately decided to drive the car himself.
Take Ziyuan to the sealed place.
Naruto and the others were confused and didn't know why she was suddenly so urgent, but it was very clear that they would obey the Jonin's orders during the mission, so they jumped into the car one by one.
"Bold! Put down the miko-sama!" Ashho, the extremely loyal attendant, shouted from behind.
Considering that this man named Ashho possesses a secret technique that is unrivaled in the world, Ino threw the rope behind him, wrapped it around Ashho's waist, and brought the attendant into the car, and then the donkey cart headed towards the sealing place in the northwest.
Run away wildly.
The more than 100 guards in the Kingdom of Ghosts were all stunned. They wanted to chase, but the donkey cart was too fast. Before they could react, they could no longer see the figure.
Just when the donkey cart suddenly accelerated, on the top of the mountain not far away, there were three men and one woman, and four ninjas wearing white robes without any forehead protectors staring at the miko and her group.
Seeing the donkey cart suddenly throwing away the guards and accelerating wildly, the leading ninja was shocked: "They have discovered us, chase after us!"
Three men and one woman started to chase them, but their ninja abilities were very average. Under normal circumstances, they were at most the level of an average chuunin.
Unexpectedly, these four people didn't know it, and they were chasing the donkey cart and yelling.
"Konoha ninja! If you have the guts, come and fight me to the death!"
"Stop! If you run away again, I won't be polite!"
"Kill the two men, capture the women, and sacrifice them to the great Lord Demon!"
Ino had been using her senses to observe the wisps of chaotic energy in the distance, and had no intention of paying attention to such a small character who could be destroyed with just one ninjutsu.
The donkey cart became faster and faster under her control, racing along the river called "Swamp River".
Sasuke originally wanted to use a fireball technique from behind. The dense positioning of the pursuers was very suitable for fire escape, but the donkey cart drifted all the way and flew up at a high speed. He was thrown around in the cart and could not finish it at all.
print.
At first, Ziyuan knelt down in the car very solemnly, but as the donkey-cart picked up speed, she couldn't sit still.
Such a simple donkey cart naturally had no guardrails. In a hurry, she could only grab Naruto on the side to steady herself.
Naruto was afraid of death, so in addition to the steel plates at the front and back, before setting off, he also put on a suit of extremely thick armor like a traditional samurai. Apart from anything else, the weight was no problem.
Shion held onto Naruto tightly, using this "tin man" to block the wind.
Sakura and Ashho were struggling to persevere. Sasuke even opened his Sharingan and stared at the road ahead, fearing that there would be a car crash and death.
If the only child of the Uchiha clan died together with a donkey, he felt that he would become a shame to the Uchiha clan and would not be able to see his parents and clan members after his death!
