Shinji still felt a little regretful after collecting the body left behind by Mr. Enemy.
Unexpectedly, that guy also had the ability to shed his skin like a cicada, transferring himself to other cursed spirits to parasitize.
If we miss this chance, it will undoubtedly be much harder to kill this guy next time.
Especially since this battle resulted in the death of the Tsuchikage, they won't be able to find such a useful tool again next time.
But there is some good news as well.
He killed two top-tier curse spirits, and another top-tier curse spirit was captured alive.
If Mr. Di wants to cause trouble again, he won't be able to stir up any waves for the time being.
The Hidden Stone Village sent someone to give Woody a token chase, but they probably won't pursue him to the bitter end.
The real person tried to resist, but was immediately sealed away and turned into a mummy.
Then Shinji realized that he was quite conspicuous, and many people were staring at him.
This is not only because of the strength he just displayed, but also because he does not belong to either Iwagakure, Kumogakure, or Konoha.
Huang Tu couldn't help but step out from behind the crowd, his face exuding an imposing aura even without anger.
[Chapter 447 Reconstruction]
"Who exactly are you? What is your purpose?"
Huang Tu looked serious and earnest.
There wasn't even a hint of sadness on his face for his father's death.
Because he knows he doesn't have the right or the time to be sentimental right now.
The Tsuchikage is dead, the Jinchuriki is missing, and the entire Iwagakure village has suffered heavy casualties...
These messages will soon spread throughout the entire ninja world.
In addition, there are enemies lurking in the shadows, ready to strike again at any moment.
Huang Tu knew that he didn't have much time left. If he couldn't quickly regroup his forces and unite everyone else into one force, he would be in trouble.
Perhaps it won't be long before Iwagakure collapses on its own.
So even though he was worried about his daughter, and no matter how sad or angry he was, Huang Tu had to force himself to calm down.
Based on what we just saw, it seems that the other party and those evil cursed spirits are not allies, but rather enemies.
If this 'misunderstanding' can be cleared up, that would be ideal.
Shinji narrowed his eyes, seemingly lost in thought. Only when Huang Tu's expression grew increasingly solemn did he put away his weapon and slowly say, "I helped you earlier because we couldn't let those monsters laugh at us in front of the enemy."
"And what I wanted from the beginning, I already told you. Purpose? There was no purpose. You've just overcomplicated things."
"I arrested that woman only because she led the attack first. Since she was outmatched and became my prisoner, is there a problem with me sending someone to negotiate a ransom?"
Huang Tu's expression was complicated after hearing this.
"That's all?"
"Otherwise, do you think you were able to evacuate from in front of me so smoothly before?"
Huang Tu sighed inwardly, wondering what Onoki would think if he were still alive and heard these words.
"You're overcomplicating things, Father!"
With his eyes turning red, Huang Tu almost lost control.
“Return the black soil, and I can give you what you want, but 20 cursed items are too many. I can only give you 5.”
"Ten items, but I'll reduce it by half for the sake of the dead Tsuchikage."
Huang Tu hesitated for a moment, then nodded slightly, "Let's leave it at that."
"Hehe, I certainly won't come looking for trouble later, but you guys don't know."
Shinji was naturally happy to see Iwagakure continue to fight those special-skill cursed spirits to the bitter end, rather than focusing on him.
But if anyone is dissatisfied and wants to cause him trouble, he won't be polite.
Iwagakure was not the first major ninja village he offended, and it certainly won't be the last.
"Let them go."
Huang Tu gave the order, and no one else dared to stop them, so Shinji and Hidan gradually walked away from each other.
There's a huge mess right now, and there's simply no way to deal with these problems anymore.
Even if the loess soil wanted to be tough, it couldn't be tough at the moment.
After Shinji and Hidan left, Huang Tu immediately began issuing orders, leveraging his status as the Tsuchikage's son and the prestige he had accumulated over the years.
Clean up the battlefield, tally the casualties, rebuild after the war, and pay tribute to the dead...
There were far too many things waiting for him to handle.
Moreover, there was no one to share the burden with him; he had to do everything himself.
Otherwise, if a few old fogies were to jump out at this time and try to seize power, wouldn't Iwagakure be in complete chaos?
Of course, the Konoha and Kumogakure reinforcements who traveled a long way to support Iwagakure were all warmly received.
After all, without their presence, the outcome might have been even worse.
Their deadpan smiles, barely managing to force a smile, were utterly unappetizing.
In the end, we simply kept everything simple and treated this special period with special measures.
Fortunately, the representatives from both Konoha and Kumogakure knew the importance of the matter and understood the situation, so they didn't say much.
If their own village had suffered such a disaster, with even the shadows dying in battle, they probably wouldn't have been in the mood to entertain guests.
Kakashi's eyes flickered a few times; he was tempted to follow and see what was going on, but in the end, he gave up.
Because he was feeling conflicted at that moment.
They wanted Sasuke's strength to increase rapidly, but they didn't want it to increase too much...
Otherwise, wouldn't it really make him look like he has been misleading people all along?
I'm really torn.
. . . . . . . .
Meanwhile, not long after, Shinji returned to the temporary base and briefly recounted what had happened that day.
Sasuke was very disappointed that he didn't get to witness such a spectacular battle.
He also wanted to compare himself to a true expert and see how far he was from being a real powerhouse.
Before anyone else could speak, Heitu, who was tied up in the corner, shouted out first.
"Impossible! How could Grandpa have died at the hands of those deformed creatures? You must be lying to me, I won't fall for it!"
"Whether you believe it or not, I've already negotiated a price with your dad. I'll send you back tomorrow, and you can find out if it's true or not then. Also, remember, next time you go on a mission, bring fewer burdens and useless teammates."
These were indeed Shinji's true feelings.
However, very few people are willing to listen to such advice.
"I don't believe it! You're lying to me, you must be lying to me! Grandpa couldn't possibly be in trouble..."
Heitu was already on the verge of collapse, and now, upon hearing this devastating news, even the pillar of his heart crumbled. So, with his eyes vacant, he kept repeating the same few words over and over.
Tamamo Hotaru couldn't bear it and went over to comfort her, but it had no effect.
Ah Fei was very frustrated. So many people had died, how come the 'misunderstanding' was about to be cleared up?
It's all because that Onoki guy is such a useless piece of trash!
If Onoki doesn't die, he will absolutely not compromise now.
That guy named Huangtu is such a spineless coward, ruining his plans!
However, looking at it from a broader perspective, the fact that the Hidden Stone Village and the Cursed Spirit Alliance fought to a standstill is naturally great news for Tobi.
The next day, Shinji delivered Kurotsuchi to Iwagakure.
In just one night, many of the damaged houses and buildings had been repaired. It really is a concentration camp for earth-遁 (earth-遁 is a term used to describe a type of earth ...
Houses are easy to repair, but the dead are hard to bring back to life.
So there was a somber atmosphere everywhere.
Especially when the Tsuchikage, Onoki, was also killed.
Shinji took his things and left, without even glancing at Kuroto, who was already crying his eyes out.
As it turns out, the demon Akagi was indeed not lying.
When Kurotsuchi saw Onoki's body, she immediately fainted from crying.
After waking up, she gradually learned from her father, Huang Tu, what had happened during the time she was tied up.
So much so that after hearing it, Heitu, who had originally been determined to get revenge, was somewhat bewildered.
Those who kidnapped her ended up saving her village.
Otherwise, even more people might die...
---Aside---
P.S.: I feel like I'm going to die. I sat on a train for 16 hours, and when I finally arrived, the heatstroke triggered my rhinitis, and I had a constant runny nose. I also got acute gastroenteritis, going to the toilet at least 20 times in two days. My anus is aching and my whole body is sweating profusely. To make matters worse, my back pain has also flared up. Now, my tailbone area hurts at the slightest touch, and when I sit in a chair, I can only sit upright with my body leaning forward, afraid to put any weight on that area. And then there are all sorts of things happening all day without giving me a break. I don't feel hungry at all; I can't eat anything.
I feel like if this continues, I'll break down completely.
As the ancients often said, "It's a matter of not being accustomed to the local environment."
I don't think it's a problem with the location, but rather the fatigue from traveling. When you arrive in a new place, all the accumulated fatigue and injuries tend to erupt at once.
P.S.: One last rant: some of the staff at Harbin Railway Station during my transfer there were incredibly rude and aggressive. I even saw one arguing with a passenger...unbelievable! Plus, there wasn't a single convenience store selling water in the entire station, and trash cans were scarce and hard to find; you had to walk a long way to throw away your trash. In short, a very bad experience. Of course, maybe I was just unlucky and encountered all these unfortunate things. Venting makes me feel much better~
[Chapter 448 Metamorphosis]
"Brother Shinji, what are we waiting for?" Sasuke's right hand was already gripping the Kusanagi sword at his waist.
