Naruto: The Progenitor of Demons Starting from Kirigakure

Speaking of which, there are quite a few things in the ninja world that can be called monsters, although most of them use chakra.

For example, Byakugan demons, such as the Nine-Tailed Fox, and the Uzumaki clan are skilled at using sealing techniques to seal certain giant demons. Even ninjas are demons called monsters.

Generally, powerful beings that exceed human understanding and cognition, or beings that are different from the norm, can be called monsters, such as tailed beasts.

However, things are a bit different in Inuyasha. Although some demons have long lifespans, they also grow old and die. They are essentially a kind of living being, only their way of being born and reproducing is different from that of creatures in the natural world.

Based on this definition, the Tailed Beasts can naturally be classified as monsters, and even more so, extremely powerful monsters.

However, there are differences among the great demons. This is roughly how their combat strength is summarized.

T4 gear, human.

Ordinary humans, the lowest class, possess neither spiritual power nor formidable martial prowess, and can only become food for various monsters, like leeks in the Warring States period.

However, there are three types of humans who can fight against monsters, and even against great monsters.

A typical example of a powerful physical attacker is the Seven-Man Team, whose leader, Bankotsu, possesses superhuman strength and can kill over a thousand humans and a thousand monsters even without the Shikon Jewel.

Then there are professional exorcists. Their spiritual power may not be that strong, but they can eliminate monsters with their strong physical attacks.

Finally, there are priestesses and monks with immense spiritual power. These individuals can neutralize demonic power through spiritual attacks, and those at higher levels can even purify demonic power directly.

For Jieluo, ninjas are basically equivalent to superhumans and exorcists. Although the best among them are terrifyingly strong, they pose little threat to Jieluo. The only attacks that can neutralize or even purify demonic power are probably those of the Six Paths.

T3 gear, half-demon.

Most half-demons are actually just small fry, mindless monsters driven by desire, or even mentally challenged. Inuyasha, the MVP among half-demons, is born with two stars of demonic power, and in his full demonic form, his power reaches four stars, placing him at the threshold of a great demon.

T2 mode is the spirit mode.

Spirits are beings without physical form. One type is the ghost of a human after death. They are divided into ordinary spirits and evil spirits. Evil spirits can attack through resentment. There are no evil spirits in the ninja world in the strict sense, but there are indeed ghosts, and even the Grim Reaper. There are many beings similar to spirits, such as the Impure World Reincarnation and the Spirit Transformation Technique.

Its mechanics make it a very difficult opponent for ordinary ninjas to deal with, but for Jieluo, it is not a very powerful opponent, only slightly feared.

T1 block, monster.

There are three types. The first type is individuals who have fallen into evil control. The second type is born monsters. The specifics of their birth are unknown, but after a long period of reproduction and inheritance, they have formed tribal societies and possess powerful strength and influence to rule over a region, such as the dog demon clan, the wolf demon clan, the thunder beast clan, and so on.

In the ninja world, these include the Myoboku clan, the Ryuchi Cave clan, and the Slug Sage, among others.

They are all talking animal-type monsters.

The third type is the Oni race. Oni are actually considered monsters, but most of them come from hell and have stronger demonic power than ordinary monsters. The most special thing about Oni is that, due to their special attributes from hell, most Oni have the ability to manipulate souls. They can not only directly attack the soul of the other party, but also transfer their own soul to a certain place, making their body immortal.

However, this advantage is also a weakness, namely, it cannot undergo the cycle of life and death like other living beings. Although it is immortal, once the soul is destroyed, the physical body will also completely disappear, which is equivalent to the data being completely deleted.

Strictly speaking, Jieluo belongs to the Oni race, which is why she can directly see souls.

Moreover, it is TO, a unique and unparalleled great monster.

Below the great demon, all can be collectively referred to as minor demons.

The term "Great Demon" is not a special race, but a collective term for a class of combat power.

A powerful demon isn't just about size. Most of the smaller demons are surprisingly large, comparable to Gamabunta, but their fighting strength is only that of a punching bag.

To obtain the title of Great Demon, one must possess overwhelming demonic power, absolute demonic power capable of crushing all magical artifacts, talismans, and even divine weapons.

This is the fundamental reason why Yura desires the Shikon Jewel. The substitute in the ninja world is the Tailed Beast. Although the process is a bit troublesome and requires time to transform, it can at least effectively enhance Yura's demonic power.

The standard strength of a great demon, according to the official guidebook, is four stars. Yura falls within this standard. If Kagome weren't the strongest priestess, Inuyasha wouldn't have been able to defeat Yura at all; he would have had absolutely no hope. It was too easy for him to win.

Without relying on the power of the Shikon Jewel, he fought solely with his own demonic power, which was a huge advantage for Inuyasha. However, the difference in strength between the two was still enormous, and he completely dominated and toyed with Inuyasha throughout the entire battle.

Even among the great demons, as a member of the oni clan, Yura is an extremely difficult opponent.

It's not some third-rate little monster.

This is why Jieluo has always been able to use her abilities with ease; it's because Jieluo herself possesses enormous demonic power.

In the ranking of monsters' combat power, Yura is among the top ten.

The top-tier great demons are the five-star great demons, such as Ryukotsusei, who belongs to the pinnacle of pure physical attack. In addition to having an extremely hard body, he can also unleash a massive demonic energy wave that can flatten a mountain range. He is known as the strongest demon in history, but he is comparable to Inu no Taisho and is a demon that can instantly spew out a Tailed Beast Ball.

This level of powerful demon is called a true great demon, because true great demons look down on the Shikon Jewel and choose to develop their own potential to the extreme. The Shikon Jewel is just a roadside object with some merit.

There is a very important condition for the growth of a yokai: time, a very long time, starting at least a hundred years. And Yura is currently just a newly born great yokai, barely a month old. In recent days, Yura has gradually realized this. Without something like the Shikon Jewel that allows for quick growth, Yura can only rely on naturally waiting for time to grow and accumulate yokai power. Even if Yura has the ability to absorb yokai power, there is no yokai power for Yura to absorb, so he is basically already at the end of his life.

Jieluo was completely ignorant of demonic arts, ghost arts, immortal arts, divine arts, yin-yang arts, barrier arts, and the like. Fortunately, the ninja world had ninjutsu, so it wasn't impossible for her to become stronger.

So, if we compare yokai to ninjas, where would a great yokai be ranked?

The answer is Kage, but the true great demon is comparable to the Super Kage, i.e., Inu no Taisho is comparable to Senju Hashirama.

How strong is Inu no Taisho? He wields the three swords of Heaven, Earth, and Man. His teeth have forged three swords: the Heavenly Sword, Tenseiga, can save a hundred lives with one strike; the Earthly Sword, Sounaga, can summon a hundred dead with one strike; and the Manly Sword, Tessaiga, can repel a hundred enemies with one strike. After death, his bones can transform into a mountain range and form a separate dimension, existing in the gap between life and death. He is the pinnacle of all yokai.

In the ninja world, only the Sage of Six Paths, who lived between life and death, could do this.

Moreover, as a weapon formed from condensed demonic energy, and the core of a demon's power, compared to others, Yura's hair, apart from being sharp, is really not impressive.

In Jieluo's eyes, Jonin are roughly equivalent to minor demons. They are not weak, but he wouldn't give them a second glance. However, if there are too many of them, it will be a bit of a headache.

As for Chunin and Genin, they're just small fry.

As for powerful demons like the Tailed Beasts, such as the Nine-Tails, Yura is not actually afraid of them. Even if Yura stands still and lets the Tailed Beasts unleash their Tailed Beast Balls, even if the Tailed Beast Balls wash over the ground, they cannot completely kill Yura. At most, they can only render Yura unable to move. Once the soul is transferred, Yura can be resurrected.

Sitting atop a horned statue resembling the Sage of Six Paths at the shrine, Yura, dangling her legs, opened her eyes and looked at Lucy, who had just woken up.

"You're awake..." Jie Luo said with a faint smile, "Little demon~"

Huh? Lucy blinked, looking at Jieluo.

Are you calling me, little monster?

"Yes, it's you. How did things go with that beetle monster, little demon?" Jieluo laughed.

Lucy opened her mouth, wanting to refute, but while Chongming wasn't a great demon, in the traditional ninja view, tailed beasts were indeed demons.

"Okay, it's settled. I'll go with you." After thinking for a moment, Lucy said, "Great Youkai...senpai..."

"In that case, I'll explain the rules of survival for yokai to you properly," Jieluo said. "First, little yokai, you're not allowed to talk back to big yokai..."

The little monster's face fell.

"Secondly, in human society, do not call yourself a monster." Jieluo glanced at Lucy.

Lucy clenched her fist, inwardly screaming.

I am a human being, a human being, not a monster!

"Okay..."

"Let's go, little devil Gai~ We'll talk about the rest on the way..."

Pushing open the shrine gate, Yura left first. Watching Yura walk barefoot in the air, Lucy's pair of fairy-like little wings flapped behind her, lifting her up and following behind Yura. After hesitating for a while, Lucy said, "Um, my name is Lucy, Uji Lucy."

Without turning his head, Jie Luo replied, "Yes, little demon Gai~"

Ah ah ah ah ah ah! ! !

Lucy's eyes were filled with despair; she was truly a capricious and wicked monster.

"I hate it so much..."
