Chapter 87
However, to Hyuga Natsu's ears, it sounded exactly like a death knell.
The branch family maid, who subconsciously looked at Naruto-kun, immediately noticed the gleam in Naruto-kun's narrowed eyes.
She understood at once.
She… was doomed… Dragging her incredibly heavy body, she slowly rose from the tatami: "Naruto-kun… please come this way…"
Whispering, she lowered her head and went to the bathroom with Naruto-kun.
"That's wonderful~."
Hinata gazed at Naruto-kun's retreating figure, already fantasizing about the two of them playing, training, and even having Naruto-kun stay for dinner… *Click*.
The bathroom door closed. Naruto-kun walked to the sink and turned on the faucet.
"Naruto-kun, I'll help you…"
Hyuga Natsu, quick as a flash, immediately stepped forward, but Naruto-kun grabbed her wrist.
The immense strength made her almost instinctively want to cry out.
However, the red light burning in Naruto-kun's eyes made her forcefully stop herself.
"You…"
Naruto-kun spoke.
During the days Yūgao Uzuki was at his house, he hadn't been idle.
From beginning to end, after multiple experiments, he finally discovered a feasible path.
The fusion of 'Yin Release + Nine-Tailed Chakra' created a new power. When used on a human body, at first glance, it would cause results like Yūgao Uzuki's continuous madness for several days. However, in reality, Yūgao Uzuki drinking milk also had to be considered.
The result of cultivating Yin Release had changed his body.
Which, in turn, changed the nature of some substances within his body.
Through the experiments on Yūgao, he learned that "reducing the dosage" was achievable.
And the method was simple.
Instead of directly applying the new power to a person through touch points like the palm.
It was… similar to the injection of Hashirama cells.
Directly adding Yin Release to milk, in the form of a Ninjutsu.
This was similar to the input effect of Hashiramacells, or the integration of Tailed Beast flesh into the human body.
Yin Release could greatly amplify the potency of a drink like milk.
So… by simply using Yin Release milk, one could achieve dosage reduction, while also acting as a filter, lowering the degree of madness, ultimately allowing a person to complete the input… healing, while maintaining sanity.
In short, "Output of Vitality" or "Granting of Vitality."
As for whether Ninja of the Hyuga Clan were different from ordinary people.
This required some experiments.
The branch family maid, Hyuga Natsu… was the best experimental subject.
"A Xia…"
Naruto-kun's deep, low voice echoed.
"Have you… heard the fable of the two peaches and the baguette…?"
Hyuga Natsu certainly didn't know, nor did she want to know.
She shook her head vigorously, a pained expression appearing on her beautiful face.
However, Naruto-kun had made up his mind to save Hinata's mom~, so how could he give up?
*Thump!*
Naruto-kun pulled hard, and Hyuga Natsuinstantly fell to her knees.
"Ugh…"
She let out a pained groan.
When she knew there was absolutely no escape, her subconscious thoughts surfaced.
Her pearly teeth bit down tightly, and the maid's face, filled with expressions of disgust and disdain, combined with emotions of resistance and sorrow, ultimately merged into a beautiful color.
"Then, let's begin…"
Naruto-kun was about to start explaining the fable of the two peaches and the baguette to Hyuga Natsu.
With rustling sounds.
Naruto-kun took out the prepared tools.
"This is a baguette. Which is French bread."
And then.
*Rip!*
Fruit appeared.
Naruto-kun: "These are two peaches~."
Hyuga Natsu: "!!"
Then, Naruto-kun combined them: "Two peaches… baguette!"
*Sizzle~!*
Hyuga Natsu: "Ugh~!"
*Splash!*
The sound of the faucet covered everything… Hinata sat outside, still immersed in her fantasies. A smile curved her lips, and she even couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Her mother and sister's matters were completely forgotten, and in her heart, there was only the image of her beloved… Chapter 28. A Xia is My Eyes, Yūgao is My Limbs.
In the distant Land of Demons.
Upon learning that his subordinates' mission had failed, almost wiped out, the young Daimyo was greatly enraged.
However, he had at least received some useful information.
According to intelligence, Konoha Ninja had cooperated from within and without.
It was Konoha, this Ninja Village, that had prevented them from bringing back the Priestess.
Although Mōryō would revive every so often, it wasn't completely predictable. Pinpointing the exact day was even more preposterous.
But Konoha had taken the Priestess.
This fully indicated that Konoha's spies had infiltrated the Land of Demons.
Making this deduction didn't help anything, but rather made people more furious.
"Oh well… 1000 years have passed; humans will always adapt a little…"
Mōryō's ancient voice echoed in the main hall.
Having lived for a thousand years, Priestesses had been sacrificed one after another.
The current Priestess suddenly having a change was also a kind of fun and challenge.
"What should we do next?"
The young Daimyo asked after calming down.
Ever since becoming Mōryō's Jinchuriki, he had increasingly relied on Mōryō's power… and wisdom.
A thousand years of survival experience wasn't for nothing.
"Hmm… bestow my power upon your subordinates, and then… dispatch them to Konoha to retrieve the Priestess and the next Priestess…"
Mōryō used clever wording, not saying to kill the Priestess and the next Priestess.
Because that would cause the Daimyo's displeasure; after all, those two women, one was his wife, and the other was his daughter.
"Why don't we act ourselves?"
The Daimyo was puzzled.
Mōryō had already regained its body and soul, and resided within his own body, which possessed royal blood, theoretically making its power stronger.
As long as the immortal ghost army was summoned, couldn't everything be flattened?
"That's true."
Mōryō shook its head, clearly having a different opinion.
"The situation has changed… Konoha has obtained the Priestess. If we rashly launch an attack, it will only benefit Konoha. The Priestess possesses a protective barrier, which, combined with Konoha's defenses, can protect the integrity of that Village… At that time, other Ninja Villages, cornered, will directly attack us!"
Facing attacks from multiple countries, the Land of Demons couldn't handle it.
Even if it attacked Konoha alone, it would be hindered by a large number of Konoha Ninja.
So, the best plan was to send people to capture the Priestess.
After listening to Mōryō's analysis, the young Daimyo found it very reasonable.
"Then let's do that… Yomi."
The Daimyo called out the name of his loyal subordinate.
"Daimyo-sama!"
Long-haired Yomi knelt on one knee, clad in a long robe, looking more like a powerful minister than a Ninja.
The young and handsome Yomi was not as old as he was in the Shippuden era in the original work.
At this time, he was in his prime, full of vigor.
Daimyo: "Next, I will bestow upon you the power of Mōryō…"
"Yes! I am eternally grateful!!"
Yomi immediately bowed his head, trembling all over, his gratitude towards the Daimyo overflowing.
The next moment, he stood up, pulled open his long robe, revealing his muscular body.
Then, he took out a scalpel from the array of scalpels hanging inside his clothes and directly stabbed it into his own body.
*Splat!*
As the scalpel continued to cut down.
No blood could be seen in the opened incision.
Instead, there was a purplish-black, almost otherworldly sight.
"Dark Medical Ninjutsu."
This was a byproduct of the Land of Demons' Ninjaresearching Mōryō's power.
It could make the human body extremely bizarre, breaking free from the shackles of the human body.
"Then…"
The Daimyo, who was sitting, stood up and reached out.
Purplish-black Chakra light shone in his palm, soon gushing out and transforming into a purplish-black long dragon.
The red-eyed dragon roared as it flew towards Yomi, plunging headlong into his split chest.
