Naruto: Nara's skill set is incredibly sneaky.

Inside the castle of the Land of Demons.

Zhu Yin felt a chill run down her spine as she looked at the suddenly gloomy weather outside.

Then she smiled with relief, "Indeed, this is the fate of a shrine maiden."

"Yes! This is the fate of a shrine maiden."

The voice of the demon rang in Zhu Yin's ears.

Zhu Yin's pupils contracted. "A demon? How is that possible? Weren't you sealed away?!"

"I'm not a demon! I'm you!"

The demon's voice was full of smugness.

"Have you priestesses forgotten that we were originally one? The so-called demons are nothing but the dark side of priestesses. As long as you priestesses live, the demons will not die! Now, I am merely one with you!"

"No!" The power of the priestess within Zhu Yin's body continuously resisted the erosion of the demons.

"Stop resisting. Your resistance is futile. Didn't you willingly become one with me?"

The demon's words reminded Zhu Yin of the barrier.

"That barrier?!"

"Hahaha! Yes!" The demon let out a piercing laugh. "Who told you witches to rely so much on bloodlines? That barrier was for you to repair. Once you've repaired it, I can find you through bloodlines, after all, our powers come from the same master!"

"I just didn't expect that the old man was so discreet that you only discovered it now."

Zhu Yin took a deep breath and looked at the shadow warrior to the side, "Lu Shi!"

Pfft!

The power of the demons has enveloped the shadow warriors.

The moment the Shadow Warrior died, a torrential downpour began outside.

"You're waiting for that ninja, aren't you? I admit that the ninja's power of death did startle me, but he's too late! Once I completely control this body, I'll be the new priestess! And there won't be any more demons!"

"From now on, I will take on the duties of the priestess of the Land of Demons, and the demons will cease to exist. Isn't that good? Isn't this exactly what you priestesses have been hoping for?"

The voice of the demon was bewitching.

The window was blown open by the wind.

"What kind of monster is this! Why can't I kill it?!"

"My lady! Help!"

"Don't kill me!"

Outside, the cries of the people of the Land of Demons could be heard everywhere.

Monsters belching black smoke were everywhere.

"This, is this what you meant by serving as a priestess in the Land of Demons?" Akane asked in a low, strained voice.

The demon scoffed, "If I remember correctly, a priestess's duty is to seal monsters and manage those sealed monsters! Since when did we start having to manage these people?"

"These people are just servants, mere expendable resources!"

"I will absolutely not let you succeed!" A red light erupted from Akane's body, and the shrine maiden's power spread outward from her without reservation.

Any monster that came into contact with this power collapsed to the ground and reverted to its original form.

"The priestess has appeared!"

"Thank you, Shrine Maiden!"

"Wow!" the demon exclaimed dramatically. "Listen, these people outside are praying for you, but your struggles are in vain."

"Wraith, you seem to think you've got this in the bag. You should know that priestesses possess the power of prophecy!"

"So what?"

"The prophecy tells me! You've lost again!" Zhu Yin revealed a mocking smile.

The power of the demon instantly surged within Zhu Yin's body.

Zhu Yin let out a muffled groan.

"You're lying to me! Once I take control of this body, I'll see for myself!"

The demon had lost interest in chatting and accelerated its erosion. Zhu Yin felt her consciousness becoming increasingly blurred, and her body gradually slipping out of her control.

With her last breath, she cried out, "Nara Shikatoki!"

boom!

The window was shattered, and Lu Shi, soaked to the bone, fell into the room.

"Wraith!"

"Isn't this that ninja who's always lying?" The demon remained completely unfazed. "What are you going to do? The priestess and I are one. Are you going to kill the priestess?"

Lu Shi swung his right hand.

The power of her soul instantly enveloped Zhu Yin.

Lu Shi's expression turned very unpleasant.

A demon's maniacal laughter rang out, "The power of the Grim Reaper is indeed formidable, but we are originally one, one soul! Are you going to tear the priestess's soul to shreds?!"

Lu grabbed Zhu Yin's arm.

To use a sealing technique to isolate Mouryou and Akane is like isolating a tailed beast from its jinchūriki.

However, his sealing technique vanished without a trace as soon as it entered Zhu Yin's body.

"It's useless. The bloodline of the priestesses of the Land of Demons is meant to seal away demons. How could they be affected by sealing magic, abandoning or killing the priestesses!"

Lu Shi manipulates Zhu Yin's blood, hoping to find the demon by relying on the power of the evil god.

"This is the power of an evil god. You brat, you're truly amazing! You've stolen the power of the Grim Reaper and mastered the essence of an evil god. Is the evil god dead?"

"Dead! I killed you!" Lu Shi said coldly. "I'm warning you, exit Zhu Yin's body now and return to where you were sealed, and I'll spare your life!"

"Otherwise, I can kill the evil god because he's immortal, and I can kill you too!"

For deer, this is a blatant threat.

Surprisingly, this really silenced the demon.

However, the demon quickly retorted nonchalantly, "It doesn't matter. If you really have the ability to kill me, then the entire lineage of priestesses in the Land of Demons will die! That doesn't seem so bad!"

"Lu Shi!" Zhu Yin's weak voice rang out, "Kill me!"

The deer's pupils contracted.

Even the demon was getting anxious. "Kid, are you really going to kill this little girl? Aren't you friends?"

"Are you scared?" Zhu Yin said sarcastically.

"When the deer was born, the demon wanted to possess my body and gain the priestess's power. It was right; the demon was the priestess's dark side. Once the two powers merge, the disaster brought by the demon will not only exist in the Land of Demons, but will affect the entire ninja world!"

"Isn't it worth it to trade my life for the life of the entire ninja world?! Kill me! Shikatoki!"

Zhu Yin roared loudly!

Deer's mind is in a mess.

Since arriving in this ninja world, Shikatoki has killed many people and has even become accustomed to killing.

But they were all enemies.

Zhu Yin is his friend.

"Zhu Yin! Think of another way! What else do I have?!"

Lu Shi seemed to be speaking to Zhu Yin, but also to himself.

The editor?! Not responding!

Sage Mode?! No effect!

They tried the powers of evil gods and death gods, and the sealing techniques also failed.

It seems... there's really no other way.

The more I think about the deer, the more desperate I feel.

Zhu Yin could sense Lu Shi's inner struggle and gave him a gentle smile.

When the red witch's power enveloped the deer.

The shadow within Lu Shi's body surged and came into contact with Zhu Yin.

A shadow belonging to Zhu Yin was pulled out.

"Shadow Imitation Technique?!" Shiro looked at Akane in disbelief.

"The captain told me about you killing the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist. Is this my shadow? Oh no!"

Zhu Yin walked towards her own shadow.

When Lu Shi tried to remove the shadow, Zhu Yin grabbed him and kissed him directly.

"Shikatoki, please don't stop me. I am a priestess, this is my destiny."

Zhu Yin's dagger pierced the shadow's heart.

The shadow vanished, and Zhu Yin's heart was pierced.

The demon roared madly, "Why did you commit suicide! Why did you kill her! Why didn't you stop her! You were so close! So close! I..."

Tears welled up in Lu Shi's eyes without her noticing.

"Don't cry, I think I'm starting to like you. This was my first kiss, so don't forget me after I die!"

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhu Yin fell silent, dying in Lu Shi's arms.

The rain outside was even more torrential.

The natural energy within the deer erupts uncontrollably.

The immense force directly dispersed the dark clouds in the sky.

"Even with all this strength, I still can't do anything?" Lu Shi muttered to himself, tightly clutching Zhu Yin's corpse. "Heh, how ironic!"

"Lord Zhu Yin, is she dead?"

Maitreya's voice echoed in the room.

"I sense the power of prophecy and the seal. The prophecy tells me that you must break the seal on the demon. Why do you want to break the seal on the demon?"

Maitreya's questioning startled Lu Shi.

Why?

Is it because the demon killed Zhu Yin that he wants revenge?

But if the demon dies, all the priestesses of the Demon Kingdom will die. Will I really kill the demon ?

The deer suddenly raised its head.

The issue that I couldn't figure out before has now become clear.

He was not present at the beginning of Zhu Yin's prophecy.

It was because Zhu Yin died that someone released a demon, and the new priestess Miroku failed to seal it.

He then appeared and sealed away the demon, ending everything.

Back to the present.

If he hadn't come, Zhu Yin wouldn't have discovered that Morning Orange and the demon were colluding.

If the gap cannot be found, the barrier cannot be repaired, and thus the barrier will not be corrupted by demons.

None of this would have happened in his timeline.

The prophecy of the priestess of the Land of Demons was not a prediction of the future at all.

It's a curse that produces a result first and then seeks out the cause!

Zhu Yin saw everything first, which reminded her of the powerful Shikatoki. So she went to Konoha Village to issue a mission to bring Shikatoki back to the Land of Demons!

Yes! Lu Shi was right from the start.

With his own strength, who could kill Zhu Yin in front of him?

He thought of Black Zetsu, Madara Uchiha, and even the Otsutsuki clan.

They overlooked the most crucial person, who also has the ability!

The fact that the one who killed Zhu Yin was a deer has already come true.

Maitreya just asked him why he released the demons.

The person who released the demons in Zhu Yin's prophecy was also him!

"Yes! Why did I release the demon? Was it to vent my anger?" Lu Shi shook his head, a glint of light and unprecedented hope flashing in his eyes. "Because the demon and the priestess are one! As long as the priestess lives, the demon will live!"

"Does that mean the spirit is immortal? And the priestess is immortal too? The spirit is the key to reviving Akane?!"

Miroku was taken aback. "Resurrect Lady Akane?"

"So you really were completely outmaneuvered by this prophecy?!" Shika's eyes were filled with determination. "The fate of the priestess of the Land of Demons? I'll take that damn fate! I refuse to believe that someone who transmigrated here can be so easily killed by your prophecy?!"
