Chapter 55 The Evil God Cult!
Chapter 55 The Evil God Cult!
Faced with a wicked man who would resort to violence at the slightest provocation, Goji Ju felt utterly helpless.
We came to the Land of Hot Springs to seek refuge. If we accidentally anger the Hidden Cloud Village and a bigger conflict breaks out, that would be terrible.
Seeing the lightning-fast short sword that suddenly appeared before him, Makoto Kujira seemed to be stunned, standing there dumbfounded, even forgetting to throw away the herbal bath bag and snacks in his hand.
"Have you given up resisting?"
Samui sneered inwardly, but his sword strikes remained undiminished.
However, just as the sword tip was about to touch Makoto Karatachi...
Makoto Goji's purple eyes, hidden behind the mask, suddenly turned blood red!
There were no hand seals, no signs.
Samui felt a blur before his eyes, and the dim alley, walls, moonlight, and the terrified masked man in front of him instantly twisted and spun like a shattered mirror!
An irresistible and powerful spiritual force crashed into her mind, instantly overwhelming and disrupting her consciousness!
"Ugh!"
Samui grunted, his forward momentum abruptly halting, and the lightning short sword in his hand clattered to the ground.
Her once sharp and cold eyes were now empty and blank, with the slowly rotating three-tomoe pattern faintly reflected in her pupils.
Genjutsu: Sharingan!
"Tsk, I told you it was a misunderstanding, but you just won't listen."
Gouju Cheng sighed, slowly bent down to pick up the medicine bath pack and snacks that had fallen on the ground, and patted off the dust.
However, he was indeed somewhat curious.
At this stage, the Hidden Cloud Village should be locked in a fierce battle with the Hidden Leaf Village. The two sides have completely entered a stalemate. How could they possibly have the time to specifically hunt down madmen like the Evil God Cult?
"How did you Cloud Ninja end up fighting with the Evil God Cult?"
Samui's lips trembled slightly; the power of the Mangekyou Sharingan was far beyond her ability to contend with.
"The Jashin Cult... is conducting wicked blood sacrifice experiments on the border of the Land of Lightning... resulting in the deaths of hundreds of civilians. The Hidden Cloud Village has issued a purge order... and the Jashin Cult's headquarters has been traced to the Land of Hot Springs... I have been ordered to track them down..."
"Awesome."
Given the situation with Hidan from the future Akatsuki organization, Makoto Kōji knows what kind of people the Jashin Cult is, so it's not surprising that those lunatics would do anything.
However, the fact that the Cloud Village is currently facing a critical situation on the front lines and is diverting manpower to deal with this matter suggests that it's probably not just because some civilians have died.
With a sincere thought, Gouju intensified the guidance of the illusion.
Tell me everything you know!
"Well……"
Samui's body suddenly trembled.
She was completely unable to resist the powerful eye force of the Sharingan, and soon revealed all the information she knew.
According to the orders Samui received, the Cloud Village leadership required them to capture as many of the core members as possible during the process of eradicating the evil god cult, and to obtain complete information about the "Undying Curse" and the "Life Connection Ritual".
The higher-ups of Kumogakure hoped to use this power to fight against Konoha and reverse the tide of the war.
really!
Gouju Cheng squinted.
Kumogakure is currently the village that has suffered the most severe defeat among the five great ninja villages.
Despite being the initiator of the Third Shinobi World War, he lost every single battle and didn't win a single one!
They started by attacking Sunagakure, but before they could even cross the narrow pass, they were wiped out by Chiyo's puppet army and Rasa's Magnet Release, which also secured Rasa's position as the Fourth Kazekage.
Then they attacked Rock Village, thinking that Rex and Earth were preparing to use type advantage to bully them.
As a result, Onoki launched a massive attack, sending out tens of thousands of ninjas to surround and kill the Third Raikage at all costs!
Finally, seeing Konoha surrounded by Sunagakure and Iwagakure, preparing to seize the opportunity to make up for their losses, the Ace and Kishimoto brothers joined forces, only to be completely overwhelmed by Minato Namikaze.
To put it nicely, the Hidden Cloud Village is still fighting against the Hidden Leaf Village; to put it bluntly, the Hidden Cloud Village has almost squandered its resources!
Currently, the four great ninja villages in the ninja world are locked in fierce fighting, and the strategic space of the Hidden Cloud Village has been greatly compressed, leaving it almost helpless and without any options.
The higher-ups are clearly desperate and are resorting to desperate measures, even targeting extremely dangerous and inhumane organizations like the Evil God Cult, hoping to gain so-called immortality to turn the tide.
"This is insane... They'd even break the law to win."
Gouju sneered inwardly.
However, Yunyin's desperate act might not necessarily be a bad thing for him.
While the enemy of my enemy may not necessarily be my friend, at least it can tie down some of Konoha's attention.
Konoha went crazy. In addition to the 30 million taels bounty on the underground gold exchange, he was also put on Konoha's gold-lettered wanted list, just like Ao.
Makoto even suspected that his ultimate killing ability in Konoha was no less than that of Yagura!
That should cover most of the questions.
Gouju Cheng looked at Samui, whose eyes were vacant and whose body was trembling slightly, and scanned him up and down.
Kill him?
The simplest solution, the one and only.
The less genius Yunyin has, the less trouble they will have.
However, this girl is now under his control and is almost like one of his own. In addition, considering the matter between Yunyin and the Evil God Cult, it seems better to keep a backup plan!
Sigh, my brother Cheng is indeed a kind and gentle person, he knows so well how to cherish women!
"Fine, I'll spare your life."
Squeezing the surging evil within his palm, Makoto Goji activated his pupil power and planted a seed.
After doing all this, he didn't linger. Carrying his herbal bath bag and snacks, he left the alley and headed towards the hotel.
Before long, he returned to the hot spring inn where the team was staying.
Night had fallen, and most of the rooms in the hotel had turned off their lights, except for a few lanterns lit in the private courtyard they had reserved.
Hozuki Mangetsu was sitting on the veranda, doting on his white short sword. Hearing the noise, he immediately looked up alertly, and breathed a sigh of relief when he saw it was Makoto Karatachi.
"Captain, you're back."
"Um."
Goji Makoto took off his mask, casually hung it by the door, and tossed the snacks to Manyue: "I brought you some late-night snacks. Where's the rest of you?"
"Ame-yuri has already gone to sleep, Kisame and Ao-senpai are soaking in the hot spring, and Yuki is in her room too." Mitsuki took the oil-paper package, sniffed it, and said, "It smells so good, thank you, Captain!"
"It's good that everyone is alright."
Full Moon's heart skipped a beat, and she looked at Makoto Kuraki with some excitement: "What happened, Captain?!"
Gouju Cheng looked at Manyue with a strange expression. "You're so excited about something, buddy. Is there something wrong with you?"
"I did make a discovery; I encountered some people from Kumogakure outside just now."
"Hidden Clouds?"
Hozuki Mangetsu paused, somewhat disappointed: "Konoha and Kumogakure are fighting in the Land of Hot Springs. Although Akabane Castle is a big city and the war hasn't affected it, there must be people from Kumogakure among them. What's so strange about that?"
"...Never mind, I can't explain it to you. Let's call Kisame and Ao over after they've finished their baths."
"What the hell!"
