Naruto: The Progenitor of Demons Starting from Kirigakure

The Black Nest is a nest woven from the strands of Jieluo's demonic hair. Besides serving as a temporary stronghold to shelter from the wind and rain, its main function is as a wide-area reconnaissance technique. It primarily uses vibrations for perception, covering an extremely wide range. If her demonic power is sufficient, Jieluo feels that her hair could circle a planet.

However, if the length is too long, the transmission of information will take time, resulting in a certain degree of delay.

But within this area, anyone who falls in is like a fly caught in a spider's web.

From underground, the numerous strands of hair resembled plant roots, intertwining and tangling together, densely covering the entire Dragon Hidden Village like a vast net.

Doflamingo has one of his strongest killing moves, called the Birdcage.

As an enhanced version of the parasitic threads, it possesses both attack and manipulation capabilities, with countless threads forming a giant arc-shaped birdcage extending from the air to the ground.

It possesses extremely sharp cutting ability; even a light touch will cause injury. Therefore, this move is like a real birdcage, trapping those inside and preventing them from escaping.

It can also disperse the silk threads that make up the birdcage, insert them into the opponent's body, control their limbs, and cause the people in the birdcage to kill each other.

In addition, it can also block radio waves and other wireless signals, preventing people inside the birdcage from calling for help.

Blocking signals is probably impossible for Jieluo nowadays.

But the other two points are not difficult to achieve.

Walking in mid-air through the dense forest, Jieluo formed a symbolic mudra with one hand in front of his chest.

Black Secret Techniques. Black Nest...

"untie!"

Everything happened silently, and no one knew what had happened. No, perhaps someone did. Huan, who was staying near the Black Nest, felt a strange sense of unease. It was as if some monster in the vicinity had been resurrected, and its heart was beating strongly, slowly and deeply.

In her unseen vision, behind her, a black nest, like a heart standing upright in the forest, was beating strongly, pumping blood and transmitting demonic power to the strands of hair in all directions.

The hairs buried underground vibrated, and in the next instant, they burst out of the ground all at once, shooting into the sky like shooting stars.

From the air, the invisible strands of hair surround the waterfall of Takigakure Village, with endless strands meeting in mid-air and connecting with each other in a crisscrossing pattern.

Seemingly sensing the approaching danger, the entire forest erupted in chaos. Amidst the trembling of the trees, flocks of birds took flight, their cries echoing through the air as they scattered and fled.

But this is not a birdcage, and Jieluo doesn't want to confine them.

In the dense forest, strands of hair shot out rapidly from the ground, some shooting straight into the sky, forming a skeletal shape, while others wandered haphazardly through the forest, seemingly aimlessly crisscrossing. The dense strands of hair danced and darted through the trees and animals, and a leaf fluttered down, instantly, as if pierced by something invisible, was silently and diagonally cut in half.

At that moment, a team of four ninjas, under orders from the village, went out to search for the Jinchuriki. As they leaped between tree trunks, without warning, the lead ninja was instantly sliced ​​into pieces and scattered from the air. Fear and shock still lingered in his eyes. Next, the second ninja silently disintegrated in mid-air, turning into pieces and scattering. Then, the third and fourth ninjas were cut down one after another.

With nowhere to land in mid-air, the momentum of its forward movement caused it to collide with the crisscrossing, sharp netting. Without any reaction, it was silently sliced ​​into pieces by the netting.

Only faint traces of blood remained at the scene, pooling into beads that dripped onto the ground along invisible threads.

Cruel yet alluringly beautiful, it is the art of killing.

Centered on Takigakure Village, the same scene was playing out one after another throughout the vast area of ​​the mountains and forests. Some scouting ninjas died without pain or consciousness, whether it was lucky or unlucky, it was hard to tell. Some ninjas were not so lucky. They were not cut into pieces immediately, but were lucky enough to lose their hands and feet and survive. Their mournful screams broke out in the forest and blood stained the ground.

Some ninjas, after paying the price with the lives of their comrades, keenly sensed the danger in the forest. Their faces filled with fear, they stood still, on guard, hesitant to move forward, unsure of what to do. All they could do was shout and curse, demanding that the attackers show themselves, and frantically swinging their weapons to defend against the unseen attack.

But all of this was in vain.

The strands of hair fell rapidly, like shooting stars, and pierced into the ninja's body.

The next second, the two who were just companions, back to back, turned around at the same time and each slashed the other with a fatal blow. The gashs split open in their chests in a ferocious manner. The two looked at each other and could clearly see the horror, fear, despair and helplessness in each other's eyes.

The limbs were tightly bound by invisible threads, twisted into bizarre shapes.

His face was filled with despair, hot tears streamed down his face, and snot was running down his nose.

"No—! It wasn't me!!! Run! My body is out of control!!!"

"No—! No!!! Wait! Stop! Please—!!!"

At the same time, hot blood also spilled out.

An invisible cage enveloped the entire perimeter of Takigakure Village. Demonic energy boiled and surged between the strands of hair, gathering and condensing into an enormous illusion that could not be looked at directly.

Above the mountains and forests, a huge female half-body phantom appeared, with long, jet-black hair flying everywhere, a faint smile on her face, and cold, indifferent crimson eyes. Between her outstretched, huge hands, her palms were clasped together, as if a shadow was looming over the small Takigakure Village within them.

Passage is prohibited here.

In the woods, Lucy flew with her head down, feeling somewhat uneasy. She could sense various intense negative emotions erupting and churning in the distance. Some were fearful, some were terrified, and most were filled with despair, as if they had encountered an overwhelmingly powerful enemy.

Jieluo strolled ahead, leading the way, and said, "Stay close to me, little demon Gai~ otherwise, you might get torn to pieces."

Lucy obeyed and flew closer to Jero.

A moment later, following Jieluo to a location, Lucy hovered in mid-air and looked at the tragic scene below. Her pupils contracted slightly.

Even though she constantly talks about hatred, she is essentially just a naive girl who has been secretly imprisoned by her family for many years and has never seen blood. This is the first time she has seen a person die so directly.

Beneath a large tree, scattered fragments lay strewn about. A head, its eyes filled with terror before death, rolled to one side. The only surviving boy in the scene, covered in blood and with a blank expression, stood motionless beneath the tree, his body trembling violently.

He didn't look very old, maybe eleven or twelve, but he was already a qualified genin cannon fodder.

Not long ago, he was perhaps just a naive child who fantasized about the profession of ninja.

But Jieluo knew very well that in the present day, with the Warring States period just ended, a child who had become a ninja at this age was no pushover. Since he wasn't on Genji's list, it meant he had already been abandoned.

When a Jinchuriki fights a Genin, who has the advantage? Yura won't say.

Flying in mid-air, Lucy hesitated to launch an attack, her knuckles white as she gripped the black sword.

Jieluo didn't want to pressure her, but this was the ninja world, and Jieluo didn't mind letting her face reality as soon as possible.

Hey kid over there.

She sat relaxed in mid-air, a faint smile on her face.

"Kill this blond guy over here, and I'll spare your life, how about it?"

Upon hearing this, the boy trembled and lowered his head, his expression unreadable.

"Hey! Great monster!" Lucy wasn't stupid. She gripped her knife tightly, her eyes fixed on the boy in front of her. She sensed that the boy's murderous intent was growing stronger and stronger.

He's going to kill me!

He's serious!

Just like those despicable people!

Lucy's emerald green eyes turned bloodshot in an instant, and she clenched her teeth tightly, but...

Lucy's hands were trembling...

The next instant, the boy acted suddenly, raising his hand and sending a kunai flying out rapidly. With a sharp whooshing sound, the kunai grazed Lucy's face, and a line of blood spurted out. At the last moment, Lucy instinctively turned her head away.

As a Jinchūriki, scarlet chakra surged from the wound, and in the blink of an eye, the wound healed.

Whether it's the wings on her waist or the healing of her injuries, this ability is called borrowing chakra.

The boy's face was filled with murderous intent, eager to attack, but he was wary of the invisible blades around him and did not make any violent movements. He only hoped that the seemingly foolish blond man opposite him would run into those invisible traps and be dismembered into pieces.

"Come on, you stupid blondie!"

"You bastard—!!!"

Enraged, he flung the black knife from his hand.

The boy stared at Lucy's movements in surprise. What had she lost? It seemed like she hadn't lost anything. In the next instant, he realized what had happened and tried to dodge, but it was too late. An invisible blade pierced through his chest, and his body quickly lost strength. Intense fear filled his eyes, and a desperate and unwilling scream erupted before he died.

With her hands supporting her head, Jie Luo watched the boy's final struggle.

"Your aim is pretty good; you have a real talent for being a ninja."

Lucy hovered in mid-air, breathing heavily, her hands still trembling. It took her a long time to calm down before she lowered her head and remained silent.

"So kind, you really don't seem like a monster, little demon!"

Upon hearing this, Lucy looked up sharply and exclaimed, "Who said anyone is kind! I'm a monster! A man-eating monster!"

"Is that so?" Jieluo stood up, clapped her hands, and said, "Let's go, let's go see a man-eating monster."

"A monster that eats people?!" Lucy's face showed surprise, and she took a step back. Wouldn't this give her away?

"Let's go, little demon!"

"Lucy!"
