The Otsutsuki Road from Kirigakure

Of course, there is another reason, that is, Qingsi is a little impatient for the prophecy of the shrine maiden Maitreya. You know, after destroying the monsters, Maitreya needs to concentrate on making two prophecies for him!

.........

.........

.........

"Finally...!" The priestess Maitreya took a deep breath, and then exhaled slowly, as if to spit out all the fatigue and stress. At this moment, the expression on her face was extremely complicated, as if she was crying and laughing, as if she had finally unloaded a heavy burden that had been weighing on her for many years.

There was a hint of relief and relaxation in her eyes, the corners of her mouth were slightly raised with a faint smile, but at the same time there were tears in the corners of her eyes, as if there were still lingering pain and struggle from the past.

At this time, Maitreya could clearly sense that the monster that was supposed to be connected with her fate had completely disappeared. In other words, the monster had been completely eliminated by Qingsi in every sense!

This also means that the fate of the witch and the demons, which has been entangled for thousands of years, has come to an end in her generation...!!!

"Mr. Mizukage! Thank you very much!" When Miroku saw the returning Qingsi, her first action was to bow deeply. This was her sincere gratitude to Qingsi on behalf of the Demon Kingdom and the shrine maidens of all generations or the shrine maiden lineage. She thanked Qingsi for destroying the monsters, saving the Demon Kingdom, and allowing the shrine maiden lineage to finally end their fate of being entangled with monsters!

As for the fact that he failed to devour the monster and enhance the power passed down from generation to generation of priestesses, Maitreya didn't care too much. After all, the priestesses were not the type to pursue power. Moreover, Maitreya felt that she couldn't ask Qingsi to do more. This was essentially just a deal, and the two full-strength prophecies were already the biggest bargaining chips she could offer!

-----------------

The day after Seiji and Miroku returned to the Land of Demons.

Miroku took the initiative to find Qingsi. Having witnessed Qingsi's terrifying strength with her own eyes, she was tactful and prepared to fulfill her promise without any intention of delaying.

Although Maitreya failed to devour the monster and further enhance her power as a shrine maiden, the relief from the pressure and the extremely relaxed and happy mood still slightly increased her strength, and she was more confident in making predictions for Qingsi.

.........

In the main hall of the Witch Goddess Temple.

At this time, Miroku had dismissed all the priestess guards, and only Miroku and Qingsi were left in the hall.

"Mr. Mizukage! Let's begin..." Miroku said softly, while his hands formed a strange seal that was completely different from that of a ninja.

Qing Si did not speak. Following Maitreya's signal, he sat cross-legged on the cushion that had been placed in the center of the hall. He slowly closed his eyes, and his mind gradually began to empty...

As the power of the witch was continuously released, the magic circles engraved around the hall lit up with a faint white light, and gradually enveloped the entire hall. At the same time, a barrier with the breath of fate also rose up in the hall.

When the barrier rose, Maitreya's state also changed. Purple patterns instantly covered Maitreya's cheeks, and a white witch robe was draped over Maitreya's body. At the same time, a white halo emitting soft light appeared above Maitreya's head, and a pair of wings grew behind Maitreya.

A dazzling white light emanated from Maitreya's body, and a sacred aura began to spread continuously in the hall. This was the true posture of the witch as she fully activated her power!

(The image comes from "Naruto Shippuden: The Death of Naruto", in the memories of the shrine maiden Shion, where the shrine maiden Miroku showed her shrine maiden posture.)

Miroku slowly walked in front of Qingsi, and each step seemed to carry a special rhythm and melody. When she was about half a meter away from Qingsi, she stopped, stretched out her right hand, and pointed her palm at the center of Qingsi's eyebrows.

Along with Miroku's action, a unique power, like a trickle of water, began to slowly seep into Qingsi's body.

This power was not strong, but it gave Qingsi a warm and comfortable feeling, just like the sunshine in spring shining on his body. After it echoed in Qingsi's body for a moment, it seemed to have found a target and finally gathered in Qingsi's mind.

It seems that this is the power of fate that the witch can use to predict the future...!

At this stage, if Qingsi himself does not want to, he can forcibly disperse the power emitted by Maitreya. Without his consent, with Maitreya's strength, it is impossible for him to make any predictions for Qingsi.

Of course, Qingsi would definitely not hinder Maitreya's power. This was his reward for dealing with the monsters, and he also had a great interest in the prophecies concerning himself, so how could he possibly refuse?

Time flows slowly like the sand in an hourglass, and every second seems to be stretched, long and slow.

At this time, Maitreya's forehead was covered with beads of sweat as big as beans, and the beads of sweat slid down her cheeks like crystal clear pearls. Her eyebrows were also tightly wrinkled, forming a deep "川" character, as if she was carrying endless and heavy pressure and burden.

The prophecy about Qingsi, a powerful Six Paths level warrior, caused Maitreya's power of the shrine maiden and her vitality to dissipate at a considerable rate. Maitreya could vaguely sense that if she wanted to complete two prophecies, the consumption of the shrine maiden's power would be a small matter, and she could cultivate it back later, but in terms of vitality, she would have to pay with about ten years of her life.

.........

.........

.........

Almost twenty minutes had passed since Miroku began to predict Qingsi, but the future she saw about Qingsi was still shrouded in a thick fog.

Time continued to pass, and soon, about ten minutes passed. Under the continuous output of Maitreya Miko's power and vitality, the fog of fate shrouding Qingsi finally dissipated...!

Miroku saw Qingsi's figure clearly, and opposite Qingsi was a hazy figure emitting an indescribable powerful aura, just like the Qingsi she had seen in the prophecy before, shrouded in the mist of fate.

The figure seemed to be laughing, with a hint of sarcasm and contempt in the laughter. The atmosphere between Qingsi and the other party was extremely tense, as if a shocking battle would break out at any time.

The battle broke out quickly. Both sides moved as fast as lightning and fought dozens of times in an instant. Each collision caused huge chakra fluctuations.

Qingsi's attack was as fierce as a storm, while the hazy figure dodged Qingsi's attack with a strange body movement, as if he could predict it, and could even launch a counterattack from time to time.

This battle was like the most spectacular sight in the world, breathtaking. Every time Qingsi and the shadowy figure clashed, space was distorted and time seemed to stop.

However, since this was a prophecy directed at Qing Si, Miroku finally caught a glimpse of some useful information. The figure was holding a long red fishing rod!!!

Then, the picture changed instantly, as if it had entered another time and space, and transformed into a scene that looked like the end of the world.

Maitreya had never experienced such a situation before. The power of the witch was instantly disturbed, but she immediately controlled it with her strong willpower and continued to watch the evolution of the prophecy scene.

A huge beast with ten tails waving behind it was roaring with its head raised. Suddenly, the sky was shrouded in darkness, lightning and thunder were flashing, strong winds were howling, flames were burning, the earth was shaking, chaos and destruction coexisted, and endless disasters continued to unfold before Maitreya's eyes...

"The sky and the earth are changing...!!!" Maitreya muttered to himself in a low voice, as if he had obtained some information from the unknown.

Then, a black space crack appeared in the dim sky. No, it would be more accurate to say that a black hole that swallowed everything appeared. The next second, Qing Si's white figure suddenly emerged from it!

but!

suddenly!

Maitreya's face instantly turned into fear. She felt an extremely deadly warning from fate, and it directly kicked her out of her true miko status!

"puff......!"

Maitreya's body fell backwards uncontrollably, and he spit out a mouthful of blood. His breath became weak in an instant, and then he lost consciousness and fell into a coma.

Before she passed out, she heard Qingsi's voice, which was slightly worried, "Mister Miko...!"

-----------------

An unknown amount of time had passed before Maitreya slowly woke up. She immediately saw Qingsi, who was sitting quietly with his eyes closed not far from her.

"Mr. Mizukage! I'm sorry..." Miroku spoke slowly and weakly, without a trace of blood on his pale face.

"Is this the backlash of the prophecy?" When Qing Si saw that Maitreya had woken up, he stopped resting his eyes, stood up and walked over, asking.

Qingsi did not directly ask about the result of the prophecy. After all, the Maitreya priestess fell into a coma because of helping him to make the prophecy. Although this was a win-win deal, Maitreya was making real efforts after all. If Qingsi only cared about his own problems right away, he would seem too selfish and unkind!

"Yes!" Miroku nodded slowly, and then explained, "Mister Mizukage is too powerful. It is still very difficult to predict the future of a strong person, even with the permission of the person being predicted. Fortunately, he fulfilled his mission and successfully completed the prophecy!"

Then, Miroku hesitated for a moment, and then he made up his mind again. After all, it was the other party's prophecy, and this Mizukage should be a good person. She had nothing to hide. "However, at the end of the second prophecy screen, I seemed to feel a fatal threat, and the power of destiny was automatically stimulated to protect itself, forcibly terminating the prophecy...!"

Qingsi was silent for a moment. He didn't know much about the ability of time prediction, so he had no way of guessing what Maitreya's final situation would be.

Afterwards, Maitreya told Qingsi all the prophetic scenes she had seen, and then lifted the barrier covering the hall. After saying goodbye to Qingsi, she returned to her own bedroom.

After obtaining the prophecy and saying goodbye to the shrine maiden Miroku, Kiyoshi used the eye technique "Takamagahara" to go directly to the Otsutsuki ruins that belonged to him.

-----------------

Just as Miroku was making his predictions to Seiji, Otsutsuki Urashiki, who had already arrived in this star region and was getting closer and closer to the planet where the Ninja Realm was located, seemed to have sensed something. His eyes penetrated the darkness and looked straight in the direction of the Ninja Realm. "This feeling... is someone using the power of time to spy on the future...?"

There was a hint of doubt in Otsutsuki Urashiki's Byakugan eyes. He felt a fleeting strange force sweeping past him, so fast that he almost thought he was hallucinating.

However, Otsutsuki Urashiki knew clearly that it was not an illusion, but someone was really spying on him, because he happened to be very familiar with this power, and it was very similar to the time-related eye techniques he mastered.

"Ha...! This is interesting..." Otsutsuki Urashiki's frivolous voice was heard, and the speed increased slightly again!

-----------------

In a different space, in the Otsutsuki ruins belonging to Kiyoshi, Kiyoshi's figure slowly appeared.

With a flash of his figure, Qingsi appeared directly in front of the little Jubi. He gently stroked the little Jubi's forehead and woke it up from its deep sleep.

Afterwards, Qingsi took out the prepared body of the monster from the Takama-ga-hara space and fed it into the mouth of the little ten-tail.

The Little Ten Tails bit the body of the monster, swallowed it completely in a few bites, and began to slowly digest the energy in the monster's body.

Qingsi looked at this scene and smiled lightly. The time for the little Ten-Tails to reach the standard for planting was getting closer and closer. Not to mention, according to the prophecy given by Miroku, a courier would soon deliver the goods to the door in person!

.........

.........

.........

In the first prophecy that Maitreya saw, the blurry figure was none other than Otsutsuki Urashiki in Otsutsuki Isshiki's memory. Although in Maitreya's prophecy, Otsutsuki Urashiki was shrouded in mist, his iconic red fishing rod-shaped weapon still allowed Kiyoshi to instantly understand his true identity!
