Chapter 265 The Evil God Is About to Resurrect

Aburame Shisei thought sternly, "That's right. If this were his hometown, he probably wouldn't have left."

Therefore, not everyone is driven by self-interest and avoids harm. Human beings are very complex. Some people are very stubborn and will do what they know is impossible.

"Besides, we are not without the ability to resist." Mieko smiled.

Aburame Shisei suddenly realized something; her gaze was firm and she didn't seem to be lying.

So, has the evil god risen from the ashes here again?

However, Aburame Shisei did not expose it or delve into it, because this was the last bit of dignity they wanted to preserve.

Even Hideyoshi was willing to sell his soul to an evil god to protect his family, so his wife, wanting to obtain that power, would naturally do the same.

"Take me to see Hideyoshi's grave."

"Okay." Mieko nodded, then turned and said, "Children, you can go and rest now. Don't overexert yourselves; too much of anything is bad and will only hurt your health."

After giving her instructions, Mihoko turned around and led Aburame Shisei to the communal cemetery in Yunin Village.

The cemetery in Tangren Village is sparsely covered with vegetation, and many of the tombstones are just simple wooden plaques that rustle softly in the wind.

Hideyoshi's tombstone was inconspicuous, without even a proper inscription, only his name was hastily engraved.

Yu Nu Zhicheng stood in front of the monument without speaking, only slightly lowering his eyes.

Countless tiny insects silently emerged from his sleeves and clothes, burrowing into the soil and touching the silent corpses beneath the ground.

After a moment, he turned to look at Mieko and asked calmly, "Do you trust me?"

Mieko looked bewildered, not understanding why he had said such a thing, but she still nodded solemnly: "I believe you."

After all, he was her husband's friend, but a rare master of ninjutsu; he had no reason to lie to her.

Having received a reply, Yu Nu Zhicheng no longer hesitated.

Suddenly, the swarm of insects exerted its strength, and the soil surged and cracked to both sides. The grave was easily overturned, the coffin was dragged out of the ground by the swarm of insects, and then pushed aside, exposing the corpse.

Mieko's expression changed drastically; she could no longer maintain her composure and asked in a trembling voice, "Strategist Shiraki, what... what are you trying to do?"

Aburame Shisei turned around, his gaze falling on her shocked and flustered face, and slowly spoke:

Do you believe... the dead can be resurrected?

These words struck Mieko like a thunderbolt.

She froze on the spot, her eyes widened suddenly, and her breathing became erratic.

resurrection?

In the ninja world, even though there are forbidden techniques and secret techniques, the cycle of life and death has always been an ironclad rule. Once someone dies, they are dead, and no one can truly pull them back from the underworld.

Her first reaction was absurdity and disbelief. She felt that the scene in front of her was too crazy, and she couldn't help but have wild thoughts—was Bai Mujunshi unable to accept her husband's death and had lost her mind?

But the next second, she rejected this absurd idea.

She must be confused. What kind of man goes insane because he can't accept the death of his best friend? That's not how friendship works between people.

Moreover, Shiroki is one of the few strong individuals in the ninja world, so perhaps he really knows some mysterious forbidden techniques that they cannot access.

Moreover, Strategist Bai Mu would never do something so shocking if he wasn't confident, much less joke about the deceased.

The so-called resurrection might actually involve some kind of ninjutsu she was unaware of, something beyond common sense.

Finally, she nodded gently and said, "I believe you. You are the strongest ninja in the ninja world; there is nothing you cannot do."

The body was exposed at this moment. Because the embalmer had previously used preservatives, even after more than a month, the body was still intact and showed no signs of decay.

Aburame Shisei manipulated some flying insects to connect his head back together, and Mieko watched her husband's appearance gradually return to normal.

It's as if he's still alive, just asleep.

She gazed at Hideyoshi, her eyes slightly reddening as she added softly, "Actually... I want him back more than anyone else. But if resurrection would come at a huge cost for you, if it were too much trouble... I think my husband wouldn't want you to go to such lengths for him either."

"It is indeed a bit troublesome, but it is also a weakness that I need to address in the future."

"Actually, resurrection in the ninja world isn't as difficult as you imagine. Or rather, dying now isn't really dying at all."

"What do you mean?" Upon hearing this, Mieko wiped away her tears and paused slightly in surprise.

Aburame Shisei didn't answer her directly, "Actually, the ninja world is much larger than you imagine. The boundary between life and death is not in the body, but in the soul."

At this point, Aburame Shisei stopped talking, sealed the corpse away, and closed the coffin again.

"These things are for you. Go and practice your taijutsu. Sometimes, basic physical attributes are far more useful than some ninjutsu."

After all, haven't you already mastered a technique that can intimidate other powerful individuals?

After finishing her sentence, Aburame Shichen gave him a meaningful look before turning and leaving with the corpse.

Mieko, who remained where she was, looked at the things in her hands and discovered that they were a book and a large scroll of pills.

Upon opening the book, I discovered that the vast majority of its contents consisted of tricky physical attack techniques, many of which were applicable to long weapons.

As for those pills, they were white, with a slight woody fragrance and some alcoholic oily aroma, which had a strong appeal to humans, especially ninjas.

She opened a bottle, poured out a pill, and put it in her mouth. The rich medicinal aroma quickly melted in her mouth and rapidly transformed into a warm current, beginning to replenish the deficiencies in her body's cells.

When she opened her eyes again, she felt that her chakra extraction speed was no longer so clumsy.

Both the quality and quantity of chakra control have improved.

"Good stuff, so much stuff. If we give it to the students, we should be able to quickly build up a fighting force."

Mihoko gripped the bottle tightly, and just then, a faint voice came from the sky.

"Help me spread my faith, grant me strength, and restore my soul..."

Mieko was stunned and looked up at the sky. "The soul, the soul is in your hands, which means the resurrection cannot be successful."

Thinking this, she closed her eyes again: "Evil God, give up, I will not help you spread your religion."

But this time there was no sound from the sky, and the evil god did not answer her.

Unbeknownst to her, in the gap between the voids, an evil deity with two horns on its head held a skull rosary in its hand, its lips constantly curving upwards.

A human face had appeared on one of the prayer beads, and Hideyoshi's soul was imprisoned there.
