Becoming the strongest in the ninja world?
Natsuki could guess Mui's thoughts.
He most likely wanted to escape his control, which was why he wished to be the strongest in the ninja world.
If he directly wished to be freed from the Blood Curse's control, with Natsuki's strength, he could just plant another Blood Curse on him.
Although Natsuki didn't think the Box of Ultimate Bliss could lift his Blood Curse.
"As you wish!"
As Mui's wish was completed, all four human faces on the Box of Ultimate Bliss opened their mouths.
Bursts of visible chakra spewed out, whipping up a violent gale all around.
Mui was in the center of the gale.
He steadied his mind and discovered countless streams of chakra surging into his body.
Waves of gloomy aura spread outward.
Accompanying it was a suffocating pressure.
Mui subconsciously clenched his fists, feeling himself growing stronger at an unimaginable speed.
The intense chakra fluctuations lasted for a minute before finally stopping.
Mui stood in place, his entire body covered in leaking chakra.
The chakra draped over him like a cloak, as if it cost nothing.
It looked like a Jinchuriki's partial Tailed Beast transformation.
"Hahaha!"
Mui suddenly burst into loud laughter and said. "Natsuki, thank you for making my wish come true!"
"Is that so?"
Natsuki raised his hand.
He immediately activated the Blood Curse.
Mui's body suddenly trembled, sensing something was wrong.
His smile froze, and an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.
How could he still be subject to the Blood Curse after becoming the strongest in the ninja world?
He felt his abilities being sealed.
Right at this moment, a near-infinite amount of black chakra flew out from his body, reaching mid-air in the blink of an eye.
"What is this monster?"
Yahiko and the others were startled.
This black chakra condensed into a giant monster.
It possessed a pair of giant black wings, slender black arms and legs, but its body looked like a round ball.
There were curved teeth and eyes on the round ball, making it look incredibly bizarre overall.
"No!"
Mui suddenly screamed miserably. "Where is my power? Why did it disappear?"
"Mui, this is the truth of the Box of Ultimate Bliss."
Natsuki stopped the Blood Curse and said. "Making any wish will ultimately only release the Yin Release monster inside the Box of Ultimate Bliss, Satori."
His purpose for activating the Blood Curse was to force Satori out.
If Satori didn't leave Mui's body, it would be sealed by the Blood Curse.
Although Mui's strength soared after merging with Satori upon making his wish, he was still far from being the so-called strongest in the ninja world.
The wishing mechanism of the Box of Ultimate Bliss was entirely based on Satori.
Mui wishing to be the strongest in the ninja world referred to the strongest power he could achieve after fusing with Satori.
But this power still couldn't break Natsuki's Blood Curse.
The Blood Curse originated from Natsuki's blood, or more accurately, from Natsuki's strength.
Unless one's strength far exceeded his or they had a countermeasure, they could only be subject to his control.
Satori sensed this exactly and abandoned Mui without hesitation.
"How is this possible?"
Mui subconsciously felt disbelief.
"Haven't you ever wondered why your Kusagakure opened the Box of Ultimate Bliss in the past, but then closed it again?"
Natsuki asked back.
Mui was instantly stunned.
According to Kusagakure's records, the village had opened the Box of Ultimate Bliss a long time ago and almost ruled the ninja world.
Why "almost"?
Was it stopped by others? Or did the user discover Satori?
Now it seemed it was perhaps the latter.
"Natsuki-sensei, be careful!"
Just then, Yahiko suddenly shouted.
In mid-air, Satori didn't have the patience to let Natsuki and Mui chat.
It spread its wings, and black chakra turned into a dense barrage of feathers, attacking Natsuki.
Water Release: Water Encampment Wall!
Yahiko formed hand seals, and a water wall rose in front of them.
Hyo-onna also used Ice Release: Ice Rock Dome of Magnificent Nothingness.
An ice wall appeared closely behind it.
The two walls met the feathers and instantly trembled violently.
Water Release: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!
Nagato opened his mouth and spat out a stream of water.
The water stream sped forward, transforming into a giant dragon in the air.
Weather Egg: Thunder Breed Tempo!
Konan took out the Sorcery Clima-Tact.
In the blink of an eye, thunderclouds surfaced in the sky.
Under her control, the sky abruptly brightened, and lightning poured down.
But her and Nagato's attacks were completely ineffective. Satori avoided the water dragon and the omnipresent lightning as if it had foresight.
"Satori possesses the ability to sense malice."
Natsuki explained. "For your attacks to be effective, you must not have any emotions in your heart."
"Ah?"
Yahiko was dumbfounded.
Not having any emotions, how is that possible?
This meant one couldn't even have the emotion of fighting and attacking.
Nagato, Konan, and Hyo-onna were also momentarily stumped.
"All of you, step back."
Natsuki activated the Sasaki Kojiro template's Mind's Eye and Clear and Tranquil.
His emotions became completely devoid of fluctuations.
Lightning Strike Spear!
Natsuki raised his hand.
Powerful electric currents spread outward with his hand as the center.
A blue-white spear of light appeared and immediately vanished.
With a boom!
It hit Satori.
Lightning engulfed it like a tidal wave.
Satori let out a muffled groan, and black chakra surged from its body.
Although injured, it was nothing major.
Seeing this, Natsuki wasn't surprised.
Satori's defense was very strong.
In the original work, it could ignore most ninjutsu.
Thanks to Mui's Fire Release: Great Heavenly Prison imprisoning it.
Uzumaki Naruto was then able to defeat it relying on Sage Art: Wind Release Rasenshuriken.
But it was a Yin Release monster, possessing immortality.
Even the Sage Art: Wind Release Rasenshuriken didn't kill it. Ultimately, they could only seal it at the bottom of the sea.
Natsuki didn't know Sage Art: Wind Release Rasenshuriken.
And even if he did, it wouldn't be able to kill Moryo either.
The original work had already provided the answer: the best way to deal with Satori was sealing.
"It hit so easily?"
Yahiko and the others looked at each other, not knowing how Natsuki managed to have absolutely no emotions in his heart.
But the struck Satori was very unhappy.
It dove down, charging toward Natsuki.
As it closed in, it swiped with a claw.
Natsuki took out Minazuki and blocked its claw.
But the astonishing force pushed him backward.
Bakudo #61: Rikujokoro!
Natsuki unhurriedly raised his left hand.
Dazzling light surfaced around Satori.
Six beams of light rushed toward it.
In terms of effect, Bakudo was actually quite similar to Fuinjutsu.
Although Natsuki had learned Fuinjutsu from Uzumaki Kushina, he only learned low-level ones.
To deal with a Tailed Beast-level Yin Release monster like Satori, only high-level Fuinjutsu would be effective.
Satori immediately retracted its claw and violently rushed toward the sky.
But the six beams of light were very fast and immediately entangled it.
With a boom!
More black chakra erupted from Satori's body.
Its speed increased again, forcibly breaking through the blockade of the six beams of light.
Once in the air, it abruptly opened its mouth wide.
Black chakra dyed the entire sky black like dark clouds.
Then it poured down.
Blood Demon Art: Freezing White Princess!
Blood surged from Natsuki's hands.
Two giant ice-sculpted maidens appeared on his left and right.
They tilted their heads back, and a wave of freezing air was exhaled by them.
The freezing air collided with the black chakra, instantly freezing it.
But more black chakra poured out, eroding and melting the ice crystals.
Seeing this, Natsuki raised both hands.
A massive amount of Swords of the Thunder God flew out.
Satori swiped with a claw without hesitation.
Under normal circumstances, the Swords of the Thunder God would be deflected, but the moment they touched its claw, they all exploded.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Countless fragments mixed with lightning all smashed onto Satori's body.
Satori felt the pain and instantly let out a roar of anger.
The tide formed by the black chakra violently rose, melting all the ice crystals, and crashed toward Natsuki without losing momentum.
At the same time, Yahiko and the others were also within its attack range.
Bakudo #81: Danku!
A giant protective wall rose in front of Yahiko and the others.
The black chakra crashed into it. Although it caused erosion, it couldn't completely melt it in a short time, resulting in a stalemate.
"You guys step back further."
Natsuki raised his hand and opened an Air Door.
Yahiko and the others hurriedly walked into the Air Door.
Lightning Giant!
Natsuki then clenched his fists.
The ground trembled, and all the iron sand underground flew out.
Lightning flashed, dust was swept up, and in the blink of an eye, a Lightning Giant not inferior to Satori was formed.
Upon appearing, the Lightning Giant smashed a fist toward Satori.
Satori hurriedly flapped its wings to dodge.
The Lightning Giant possessed no consciousness, and therefore no emotions.
Satori's malice sensing was completely ineffective.
After it dodged the punch, the Lightning Giant immediately spread its five fingers.
A sky full of lightning attacked Satori from all directions.
Unable to dodge, Satori's black chakra met the lightning like a tidal wave.
Bakudo #75: Gochu Tekkan!
Natsuki seized this opportunity and raised his hand.
Five giant iron pillars plummeted from the sky and smashed into Satori.
Caught off guard, Satori was smashed toward the ground by the immense force.
Boom!
The ground cracked open, revealing a large crater.
The Lightning Giant immediately stepped forward, slamming both palms toward it.
Sensing danger, Satori hurriedly struggled.
Black chakra surged out like a fountain, enveloping the five giant iron pillars in an instant.
The five giant iron pillars loosened.
Satori flew toward the sky.
But it was still a step too slow. The Lightning Giant's two palms struck its body dead on.
Satori was immediately sent flying backward.
The Lightning Giant leaped into the air.
Both feet stomped on Satori.
The massive size coupled with the terrifying force instantly pressed Satori deep underground.
Iron Sand Sword!
Natsuki swung his hand fiercely.
The underground iron sand pressed down on Satori, making it even more unable to move.
In the distance, Yahiko and the others felt this scene was very familiar.
The current Satori was enjoying treatment similar to the previous Moryo.
But it was normal.
Both of them were immortal Yin Release monsters.
The most effective method against them was Fuinjutsu or attack methods with sealing effects.
But Satori was stronger than Moryo.
Every time Moryo broke free, it was sealed by the Priestess. For so many years, its power hadn't increased at all.
Satori was different. The Box of Ultimate Bliss possessed the ability to absorb emotions.
The more emotions, the stronger Satori became.
And every time a user made a wish, they would pour a massive amount of chakra into the Box of Ultimate Bliss.
Natsuki looked at the struggling Satori and used Projection Magecraft.
He grasped a bow.
Sealing Arrow!
Majestic chakra transformed into an arrow.
Natsuki released his grip, and the arrow abruptly vanished.
In reality, it didn't vanish. Its speed was just too fast for the naked eye to see.
The next second, the arrow hit Satori.
Countless amounts of chakra spread like curse marks, covering Satori in the blink of an eye.
Satori's violently shaking body instantly stiffened.
It was like an insect frozen in amber, completely motionless.
Natsuki couldn't help but nod.
The effect of the Kikyo template's Sealing Arrow was indeed powerful.
He felt the sealing effect was absolutely not inferior to the Uzumaki clan's Fuinjutsu.
However, the effect of the Sealing Arrow depended on the chakra output of the user.
In this regard, it couldn't compare to the Uzumaki clan's Fuinjutsu.
Fortunately, he had the Black Grail and plenty of chakra.
Thinking of this, Natsuki stepped forward.
He took out the Black Grail.
The Black Grail trembled, and black chakra surged out, wrapping around Satori.
Terror quickly appeared in Satori's eyes.
For the first time, it felt what fear was.
Because the Black Grail was absorbing everything from it at a terrifying speed.
But it couldn't do anything.
The Sealing Arrow's seal was too strong. It couldn't break free in a short time.
And this amount of time was enough for the Black Grail to suck it completely dry.
A moment later, Satori vanished without a trace.
It was a Yin Release monster. It had no physical body to begin with. Like a Tailed Beast, it was a creature of pure chakra.
However, its chakra was only Yin Release, unlike Tailed Beasts, whose composition was complex.
Natsuki sensed the chakra within the Black Grail, the corner of his mouth curving up as a smile appeared on his face.
Because there was truly too much, so much that he couldn't use it all up even if he squandered it recklessly.
[Congratulations to the host for unlocking Kikyo template Ability 7: Priestess Purification Technique]
After defeating Satori, the unlock condition for the Priestess Purification Technique — defeating a Yin Release monster — was met.
A massive amount of information flooded his mind.
In Inuyasha, Kikyo used many purification techniques.
Such as spiritual purification, surrounding purification, deep purification, and so on.
The Priestess Purification Technique was a synthesis, possessing all these effects.
But in the ninja world, impurities, curses, evil thoughts, and miasma were relatively rare.
It would be difficult for the Priestess Purification Technique to exert its maximum effect.
However, it had a special attack effect against Yin Release monsters and genjutsu.
This was still very good.
Natsuki waited for a while but found no new text appearing before his eyes.
As expected, Satori didn't trigger a new character template.
After all, it was too similar to Moryo.
Natsuki turned to look at the Box of Ultimate Bliss. But it didn't trigger a new character template either.
What was missing?
With this thought, Natsuki stepped forward.
[You have awakened the Angra Mainyu template]
Amidst his thoughts, Natsuki was abruptly jolted back to reality.
Angra Mainyu?
Could it be the Servant irregularly summoned by the Einzbern family in Fate/stay night?
He was not a conventional class, like Saber, Rider, or Archer, but the so-called Avenger class.
Simply put, he was a Servant filled with negative emotions like resentment and vengeance.
And he was also the culprit behind the corruption of the Holy Grail.
From this perspective, he was the same as Satori.
Satori was an aggregate of negative emotions, which also twisted the wishes made upon the Box of Ultimate Bliss.
In a sense, it was also irregularly summoned by the user of the Box of Ultimate Bliss.
Natsuki looked at his newly awakened character template.
[Name: Angra Mainyu template]
[Era: Avenger-class Servant of the Third Holy Grail War]
[World: Fate/stay night]
[Rank: None]
[Ability 1: Avenger — UNLOCKED]
[Effect: Damage received by oneself can be converted into chakra]
[Ability 2: False Copy of Inscribed Creation — LOCKED]
[Effect: Injuries received by oneself will be synchronized to the target]
[Unlock Condition: Develop Yin Healing Wound Destruction]
[Ability 3: All the World's Evils — LOCKED]
[Effect: Forcibly corrupts the target, causing their personality to invert. Success rate depends on the target's willpower]
[Unlock Condition: Learn Bringer-of-Darkness Technique]
[Ability 4: Four Nights' End — LOCKED]
[Effect: At the cost of one's life, forcibly raises one's own strength to the next level]
[Unlock Condition: Learn Dead Demon Consuming Seal]
After reading it, Natsuki couldn't help but be stunned.
This Angra Mainyu template was undoubtedly the most unique of all the character templates.
It had no rank, and its four abilities leaned toward the conceptual, not traditional offensive or defensive abilities.
Ability 1, Avenger.
Avenger was Angra Mainyu's class.
Classes had corresponding skills.
The Avenger class skill was that damage received by oneself could be converted into chakra.
This ability was very useful in combat.
Especially in evenly matched battles.
If the gap between the two sides was too large, then it would be meaningless.
Ability 2, False Copy of Inscribed Creation.
This ability shared similarities with Ability 1.
Synchronizing the injuries one received could provide a huge advantage in an evenly matched battle.
Its unlock condition was to develop Yin Healing Wound Destruction.
Yin Healing Wound Destruction was an A-rank medical ninjutsu used by Yakushi Kabuto in the original work.
Its effect was to predict the target's attack location in advance and begin healing before the enemy's attack landed, reducing the power of the attack.
Developing an A-rank medical ninjutsu was still somewhat difficult for Natsuki.
But it was also just a matter of time.
Ability 3, All the World's Evils.
This ability reminded Natsuki of a Naruto movie called Road to Ninja.
The story told inside was that Konoha fell into a limited version of the Infinite Tsukuyomi, and everyone's personality was altered. For example, Hyuga Hinata went from a shy girl to a bossy delinquent.
Another example was Uzumaki Naruto, who turned dark and became the S-rank rogue ninja, Uzumaki Menma.
Personality inversion didn't seem very useful, but the impact it could cause would be massive.
If Natsuki could invert Uchiha Madara's personality, the crisis in the ninja world would probably be resolved.
However, with Uchiha Madara's willpower, it was highly likely impossible to invert his personality.
Its unlock condition was to learn the Bringer-of-Darkness Technique.
The Bringer-of-Darkness Technique was specifically designed to counter the Sharingan's genjutsu.
Its effect was to create an environment of absolute darkness that even the Sharingan couldn't see through.
Learning the Bringer-of-Darkness Technique suited Natsuki's intentions.
After all, it could be used as a precaution against the Uchiha clan.
Ability 4, Four Nights' End.
This ability belonged to the category of ultimate moves, a last dance, forcibly raising one's strength.
For Natsuki, it actually had an extra use.
Because he had the Kikyo template's Resurrection from Death. Although he would turn into a clay body after resurrecting, it could be used as a last resort.
Its unlock condition was to learn the Dead Demon Consuming Seal.
The Dead Demon Consuming Seal was also a Fuinjutsu that required one's life as the cost to use.
Its effect was to summon the Shinigami to devour the target's soul.
This Angra Mainyu template was indeed hard to evaluate.
But it was still quite useful.
With Natsuki's current strength, his offensive capabilities were already sufficient. Having some bizarre and unusual abilities wasn't a bad thing.
