Chapter 341 The Death of Shukaku
Upon hearing this, Yukimaru's eyes suddenly lit up, and a smile involuntarily appeared on his face.
He knew that although the adults seemed serious, they were very understanding and never forced their subordinates, and would try their best to satisfy their wishes.
"So, now you can tell me why you insist on learning forging. Is it for him?"
Aburame Shisei's gaze fell on Kurosuki Raiga, and he suddenly felt that the man looked somewhat familiar.
Upon closer inspection, isn't this one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist who were wanted recently?
He remembered that this person used a double-edged lightning sword, but now those two lightning swords were gone. Could they have been summoned away by Kirigakure? It didn't seem so.
As far as he knew, each of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen had a contract with the sword, similar to the relationship between a ninja and a summoning beast.
Normally, if the master is not dead, it is difficult for a summoning jutsu to change masters, and the same applies to ninja swords.
Since Raiga Kurosuki is still alive, it means no one has the right to directly summon and take his sword. So…
Yu Nu Zhicheng looked around and suddenly noticed that some iron-aluminum insects in the distance were larger and had more dense electric arcs around their bodies.
"So, his knife got eaten by insects, and you want to make him an exact replica? Why not just tell him?"
Yukimaru lowered his head, not expecting that his master had seen through his thoughts so easily.
Aburame Shisei glanced at Kurosuki Raiga and instructed Yukimaru, "Are you afraid that if he finds out his sword was eaten by your insects, he'll be angry, furious, or even leave you?"
"Actually, there's no need to be so concerned. After all, you saved his life, so logically speaking, his life belongs to you. You can care about his feelings, but you don't need to be overly concerned."
"R-Really, is this possible?" Yukimaru looked up, his eyes shining, as if a new door was opening.
"Of course," Aburame Shigeaki said with a smile, offering earnest advice. "Feelings are a mysterious thing, but you need to control them, not be controlled by them. Besides, isn't your affection for him just a fear of loneliness?"
Yukimaru paused for a moment. "Really? It seems so, but it also seems a little different."
However, what my lord said makes a lot of sense. Since I have saved him, he should be mine, just as I belong to my lord.
Then Aburame Shisei turned to Kurosuki Raiga and said, "Since Yūkimaru wants you to stay, then stay."
After saying that, he took out a bottle of pills and placed it on the ground: "Your injuries are quite serious. Taking these may help you recover completely."
Then, he looked at Yukimaru again: "As for forging, the technology in Taki no Kyu is indeed mediocre. I do know that there are excellent craftsmen in the Craftsmen's Village, but it is not currently under our control. In a few days, after I have finished dealing with other matters, I will go there to take a look and keep an eye out for you."
Aburame Shisei was also thinking that it was time to upgrade his men's equipment.
The artisan village also possesses a technique for resurrecting ancient powerful beings through weapons, which might also yield some good results.
After a brief inspection, it was found that Yukimaru's mental state was stable and he had not revealed any information about the place, so there was no need to change the person in charge.
As for fetishes like raising insects with live people and keeping male concubines, Aburame Shicheng thought they were harmless. In fact, having some hobbies among his subordinates made the organization seem more vibrant.
Just like Kakuzu loves to amass wealth, Naoto is charitable, Hyuga Kagami likes to attract attention, and even Uzumaki Shiki has recently become obsessed with the art of dressing up, it's really not a big deal.
Afterwards, he took away the mutated iron-aluminum worms. Upon examination, these worms were no longer iron-aluminum worms, but should be called thunder worms.
When tens of thousands gather, they can attract heavenly lightning and unleash natural lightning escape.
This kind of lightning originates from natural energy rather than chakra, and even the Otsutsuki clan cannot be immune to its damage.
It seems that the lightning-attribute fairy insect has been found.
Place these insects in Thunder Valley above Hell Valley, and given time they will mature. Then, nurture them with natural energy, and cultivating a thunder-attribute immortal insect should not be a problem.
However, the resources consumed are probably far greater than those of other types of immortal insects. But they don't eat magma or drink the northwest wind; instead, they consume real lightning-attribute chakra metal, which is very, very expensive!
It's so expensive that it would make Kakuzu kneel on the ground and wail for three days and three nights.
After bidding farewell to Yukimaru, Aburame Shisei flew back towards the Land of Demons.
Deep in the desert on the other side, Hyuga Kagami also arrived at his destination.
Nestled among the sand dunes of the uninhabited area is a temple of moderate size, dedicated to the gods and Buddhas of the Wind Kingdom.
The sound of the wooden fish echoed rhythmically before the Buddha, led by a kind-faced old monk, who was none other than the Jinchūriki of the One-Tailed Fox, Bunbuk.
He sat on either side of a young monk, namely his disciple Fa Yi and the temple's heir, Wo Weng.
"Amitabha. Fa Yi, take your junior brother and leave first." Fen Fu opened his eyes and suddenly began chanting the sutra.
"Master, could it be that your time...?"
"No." Bunpuku shook his head: "Shukaku told me that a formidable being has arrived. I must inform the Fourth Kazekage. I'm afraid I won't be able to protect the One-Tail anymore."
As soon as he finished speaking, he struck the wooden fish and strode quickly into the depths of the desert.
I wanted to catch up, but was stopped by Fa-ichi. The two quickly left the temple and headed towards Sunagakure.
They were nominally disciples of Bunpuku, but in reality, they were originally ninjas sent by the village to monitor the Jinchuriki. Later, they were influenced by Bunpuku and converted to Buddhism.
But at this moment, they must report the crisis to the Fourth Kazekage.
On another part of the desert, Fenfu suddenly stopped.
A long-haired boy floated in mid-air, pointing his finger at his forehead, his blue and white eyes lowered.
"Our Lord is merciful; the tailed beasts shall return to their natural state."
"Amitabha. Good, it should be so." Fenfu put his hands together in prayer, without any intention of resistance.
But the Shukaku within him erupted in fury: "Old monk, what are you doing?! Do you really want to die? I don't want to die with you! Fight him! Attack now—!"
It gripped the railing tightly, shaking it violently, its chakra continuously pouring outwards.
It wasn't that it didn't want freedom, nor was it afraid of death, because tailed beasts are inherently immortal; it simply didn't want the old monk to die like that.
"Ugh, so pathetic!" he cursed, but he could clearly sense that the chakra within Hyuga Kagami's body was far superior to theirs.
But the old monk remained unmoved, suppressing his resistance. At this moment, Shukaku began to beg for mercy for the first time.
"Hamura's family, the old monk is about to die, he doesn't have much time left, could you...?"
"No way." A silvery-white light burst forth from Hinata Kagami's fingertips.
Fenfu's body instantly turned into spray, and the sandy land dozens of miles behind it was also ruthlessly cut into a ravine.
One tail, released!
