"How is it? Do you feel anything different here?"
Having already set foot on the land of the Snow Country, Guan Liyuan asked Bai about his feelings...
"Indeed... it feels much weaker than on the iceberg, but the ice and snow on the ground do have a similar power. My Ice Escape Secret Technique can also exert a stronger power here than usual!" Bai said.
"How did the Mizunotsuki clan do so many Ice Escape enhancement mechanisms buried throughout the country?" Guan Liyuan asked in confusion.
And the Sandaifu said at this time: "We have also explored the source of Ice Escape, but no matter where it is, we can't find the source of this power, otherwise it wouldn't have survived until now... There is a saying that the Mizunotsuki clan made a contract with an ancient and powerful demon god during the Warring States Period, and then let its power spread here."
"An ancient and powerful existence? Could it be an ancient life when the sacred tree was still there..." Guan Liyuan muttered in confusion.
"What did you say?"
"Nothing, continue to wait for the news they find out." Guan Liyuan changed the subject.
The ninja civilization in the world of Naruto began when Princess Kaguya stole the forbidden fruit and took the power of the sacred tree for herself.
Before that, there were also some powerful non-human individuals who were called "gods" by the old humans, but later most of these "gods" were killed or sealed by Princess Kaguya, and a few who gave in were killed or sealed by the Six Paths Sage...
After the Six Paths Sage popularized the way of practicing chakra, humans could also have power comparable to that of the ancient gods!
Like Zero Tail, Wuliang... Guan Liyuan even suspected that the prototypes of the death gods in "Shiki Fuujin" might all be ancient gods.
Although their era has passed, even if they want to restore, they are not the opponents of today's humans, and they may not even be able to beat the Nine-Tails, but they still cannot be denied that they are powerful individuals! If
you think about it carefully, if the Mizunotsuki clan has mastered a power that keeps a medium-sized country in winter forever and buffs their "Ice Escape" throughout the country, it seems that it can only be the power of some ancient gods.
At this time, one of Honglian's men came back and reported: "Advisor, there is an ice and snow fortress one hundred and fifty miles ahead. It is estimated that more than five hundred snow ninjas are stationed there. The figure of the enemy leader, Avalanche Langya, was found, but they were unable to get close."
"Ice and snow fortress?" Guan Liyuan said, looking at San Taifu.
"Yes, there seems to be a fortress in the north..."
"Seems?" Guan Liyuan's eyebrows jumped.
San Taifu's old face turned red, and he stammered: "It is a fortress used by ninjas. We don't really understand it..."
Guan Liyuan rolled his eyes. Along the way, Guan Liyuan also asked him about the number and strength of snow ninjas, but San Taifu either "seems" or "should", and the basis for his speculation was what he saw and heard ten years ago! Still
want to restore the country like this? No wonder they were wiped out in the theater version as soon as they met...
In fact, it's normal to think about it. If it weren't for a group of pig teammates, would the former king of the Snow Country be defeated by the snow ninjas overnight and not even have time to receive Konoha's warning?
"Fortress? Five hundred snow ninjas... If nothing unexpected happens, the other side wants to stop us here! Honglian, organize the people, let's get closer." Guan Liyuan said.
"Advisor Guan, do we really not need to wait for reinforcements?" San Taifu was a little worried.
"No need... I have the 'Fortress Buster' here!" Guan Liyuan said confidently.
In the evening, the "field ninjas" pushed the battle line to the front of the fortress.
Because the palace of the Mizunotsuki clan in the former "Ice Kingdom" was at the northernmost end, which is now on the sea surface. That is where the Mizunotsuki clan is the strongest, so there are no dangerous passes along the coast of the Ice Kingdom, and there are only fortresses in the inland.
"Is the fortress of the Snow Kingdom in front? No wonder it is called the Ice and Snow Fortress..." Guan Liyuan said, looking at the "ice wall" in the distance.
"Lord Guan Liyuan, do you want to attack by force?" Honglian asked.
"Wait a minute, let me try to see if I can break the fortress, and then you can follow up..."
"Break the fortress?" Honglian said that she didn't understand.
Guan Liyuan was obviously addicted to the tactics he used to break the northern fortress of the Grass Country last time. He walked to the open space alone, pierced his thumb from the inside out with a bone spur that appeared out of thin air, and then formed a seal: "Summoning technique!"
At this time, the crew members were still on the boat. Shigeo would protect and monitor them. Guan Liyuan said that he would give them the opportunity to shoot after the Snow Country was pacified. As for the real war scenes, they would not be allowed to record them...
Moreover, the Snow Country did not border any major country. In an era of inconvenient information, unlike the Field Country that was targeted by Konoha from the beginning, any abnormality here could be "fooled". Therefore, Guan Liyuan summoned the body of the Nine-Tails without any scruples!
"This, this is..." San Taifu looked at the giant beast that appeared out of thin air in front of him in shock.
"Huh? Where is this?" As soon as the Nine-Tails appeared, there was a burst of grinning around.
"What's wrong?" Guan Liyuan asked in confusion.
Before, he left the Nine-Tails with Orochimaru, asking him to input some data of the Nine-Tails while studying the increase in crop yields, laying a foundation for the future human pillar power localization project.
But why did the Nine-Tails look so alert when it came out? Did Orochimaru do anything to him?
"Around... there is an aura that makes me uncomfortable." The Nine-Tails said.
"Around? Could it be... think about it, maybe you felt this aura before you were born." Guan Liyuan said hurriedly.
The Nine-Tails said that it also had a vague impression of the memories before being separated by the "old man", that is, some memories of the time when the Six Paths Sage was the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki...
"Right! It's that guy..."
"Who is 'that guy'?"
"A tough guy. I remember that the old man came back here once in his later years after separating us... At that time, the old man said, 'It is indeed extinct, but the remaining power has leaked out.' But at that time, not so much power should have leaked out!" said the Nine-Tails.
Guan Liyuan sorted it out in his mind. In other words, an ancient god had indeed died here, and was killed by Liudao. Liudao discovered that part of the ancient god's power had leaked out in his later years, so he came to check again and confirmed that the "Ice God" was indeed dead...
But for some reason, the Mizunotsuki clan once again activated the power of the "Ice God" and created a paradise for "Ice Escape" here.
The area affected by this power is also winter all year round!
"Are you sure 'that guy' is dead?" Guan Liyuan asked.
"Of course, the old man can't be wrong about this." Kyuubi said as a matter of course. Guan
Liyuan accepted this statement, because he had a good grasp of the power of nature, and felt that there was abnormal natural energy in the ice and snow here, but he also felt that this power was lifeless, just a tool without consciousness...
Guan Liyuan estimated that the current state of the "Ice God" should be similar to the Kyuubi sealed by Naruto, no longer conscious or alive, but still powerful, and as an "ancient god", it should be the same as the Kyuubi, with only a shell left to circulate power, and after consumption, it can also absorb natural energy to recover instinctively...
"Wait! Can't the fortress in front also contain this power? Then can you flatten the fortress in front?" Guan Liyuan suddenly realized this.
Kyuubi hesitated and said, "...I can try!"
Well, referring to the character of "Sadaharu", Guan Liyuan is now 90% sure that the Tailed Beast Cannon alone may not be able to do anything to this fortress, and that kind of residual power is also added to the fortress...
