"A long time ago, a ninja who wanted to dominate the continent used the power of monsters to create an immortal army."

"Wait, why would the villain in this kind of legend be a ninja? Ordinary people can also use the power of monsters, right?"

The guard who was in charge of the narration, Suzuki, clenched his hands behind his back into fists silently, "Okay, Lord Uchiha, the one who wants to dominate the continent is an ordinary person full of ambition."

The Uchiha nodded in satisfaction, "Very good, continue."

"Wangliang led the Undead Army, ravaging various countries and pushing the continent to the brink of destruction."

"The continent is too easy to destroy. They are just a bunch of stone puppets. They can be smashed to pieces with just one punch!"

The Senju brother waved his fist, and the wind from his fist lifted the hair of an Uchiha beside him. The Senju brother successfully received a Roll of Eyes.

"Brother Suzuki said at the beginning that the stone man would be put back together by himself. You idiot who can only use your fists, be careful that when it puts the stone man back together, it will also put you in with it."

"Who are you calling an idiot?"

"Whoever responds will be the winner."

Suzuki pretended he didn't hear anything and continued, "At that time, the first shrine maiden of the Demon Country used powerful witchcraft to seal the spirit of the demon in the underground palace of the Demon Country, and the body in the shrine hall of the Swamp Country."

"So our mission is to go to the Swamp Country and retrieve His body?"

"Yes, but the seal of the Swamp Country can only be opened by the great priestess, so you have to wait until the priestess' ceremony is over before you can set off."

"Ugh……"

"I thought I could finally move around, but I've been fighting Thousand Hands every day these past few days, and I can't kill them. I feel like I'm going crazy!"

"We are the ones who are going crazy. After being beaten by you, we not only have to heal our own wounds, but also heal yours. Don't be too proud, Uchiha."

"Ahem." Senju Butsukan, who was passing by, coughed twice, and Uchiha Tajima glanced at the entire audience.

The Uchiha and Senju who were about to quarrel fell silent instantly and turned to mocking each other with their eyes.

The guards in green priest uniforms sighed softly.

It starts again.

……

The shrine was dark. Even though it was dusk and the sun had not yet set, very little sunlight could penetrate the narrow windows. The room was filled with candles and lights, and the orange-red flames flickered on the face of the shrine maiden inside.

With the center of the room as the origin, there was a purple formation diagram with complex patterns drawn on the ground. The old witch sat in the center, and Anian sat three feet directly opposite her, also within the range of the formation diagram.

All the other witches stood outside the formation, looking at the two people in the formation with full preparedness.

"Nono Gugu, three stars on the left, three prisons on the right, the world is turned upside down, all nine roads are blocked, make you lose your mind, follow this confusion, take east as west, take south as north, the star is the Big Dipper, your feet are closed for a thousand miles, the six Jias are stretched, do not avoid disaster" (a curse in a Japanese drama, don't delve into it)

Along with the sound of many witches chanting spells with their eyes closed, Anian, who was originally sitting cross-legged in the formation, suddenly fell into a coma, and an almost dark purple light appeared on his body.

Then, the witch opposite her pierced her finger with a needle and made a handprint. The deep purple light seemed to be attracted and connected to the forehead of the witch. The witch's body also began to emit a deep purple light similar to that of Ah Nian, but the color was darker, almost black.

After a few breaths, the light on Anian's body dissipated, and the sitting posture he had been maintaining suddenly collapsed, and the whole person fell to the ground.

The great witch let out a long sigh of relief, "Okay."

After hearing the voice of the chief witch, the other witches opened their eyes and hurriedly carried Anian back to her own bedroom.

After everyone left, Ling stepped forward and tried to help up the high priestess who was still kneeling there. The high priestess waved her hand and stood up by herself.

His originally hunched body straightened up again, and even his voice became lighter.

"It's worthy of the power of monsters..." The witch walked to the mirror and took off her hat. Her originally white hair had turned black from the roots to more than ten centimeters.

She reached out and tugged at her hair. "Luckily I was wearing a hat."

Ling looked at all this in shock, "Mother?! What is this?!"

The great witch raised her finger and made a gesture to silence him, "Shhh——"

"This secret is only known to you and me. After I leave, forget everything you saw today."

Ling nodded, "Then Anian..."

"The child is fine. She was not her power in the first place. It would be good for her if she left."

"Good boy, go get the props I asked you to prepare."

"Oh, I haven't seen such a youthful and beautiful look in a long time."

……

The ninjas who had been waiting in the courtyard for a long time finally saw the miko come out. After another cup of tea, Ling came out to inform everyone.

"Everyone, you can set off now. The Great Priestess is ready."

"Please, Master Qianju, take up the heavy responsibility."

The Thousand-Handed Buddha was at a loss. Heavy responsibility? What heavy responsibility?

When everyone was really getting ready to set off, Senju Fusuma stood beside Uchiha Tajima with a look of despair on his face.

Uchiha Tajima laughed loudly, "Hahahahahahaha, it is indeed a heavy responsibility! Senju Butsuma, you have to carry the great miko well, and be careful not to fall hahahahahahahahaha."

Thousand-Handed Buddha: He was furious for a moment, but he had to accept his fate and lifted the great witch in the basket on his back up again.

Kyojuro stood beside the two elders, and curiously opened his Sharingan to stare at the legs of the great shrine maiden. After the great shrine maiden noticed Kyojuro's gaze, she secretly blinked at him.

Kyojuro smiled back, indicating that he understood.

Although he didn't know how the bones of the great witch that had been deformed due to old age had straightened again in just a few hours, and he didn't know why she tied her calves and thighs together, everyone has secrets, and since it was a secret, he wouldn't say much.

"set off!"

"Yes!"

Following the order from Senju Butsuma and Uchiha Tajima, the dozen or so ninjas they brought immediately went into alert. They protected Senju Butsuma and the great miko in the middle of the team and rushed towards the Swamp Country.

"Ahem! Wait a moment!"

The chief priestess was jolted twice by the Thousand-armed Butsuma's jumping up and down way of traveling, and then she hurriedly called out to stop, "I am old, can you change to a gentler way of traveling? Otherwise, before I reach the shrine of the Swamp Country, I will have to say goodbye to this beautiful world first."

For a moment, all the ninjas were speechless.

This old woman has so many things to do!
