Chapter 432 Swamp River Car God
Shion's words shattered Naruto's confidence: "It's no use. I saw your tombstone, Uzumaki Naruto's Tomb. That's your name, right? I haven't been to your Konoha Village, but I know your tombstone is in the southwest corner of the village, where there are many graves."
Naruto was completely speechless. The southwest corner was the village cemetery, where the Third Hokage and his men were buried. Was he going there too? He really didn't want to die.
Sasuke also felt very uncomfortable. He did not have the idea of living and dying together with Naruto, at least such a thought did not occur in his mind. He just felt that he would feel very uncomfortable if this annoying guy died suddenly.
Sakura also shifted her focus from the mortgage to Naruto, asking Shion how to crack this so-called prophecy.
Zuho advised them to give up such unrealistic ideas, saying that the witch's prophecy had never failed, and if she said he would die, he would definitely die.
Ino thought that with Ashura and the Sage of Six Paths buying at the bottom, there was no need to worry at all, so she did not participate in the conversation and just finished her breakfast.
After breakfast, the miko Shion started getting ready to set off.
The previous miko, Shion's mother, sealed the soul of the monster Goryeo deep in the swamp country.
Now they are going to the Swamp Country to investigate.
The miko Shion prepared a guard team of a hundred people. After breakfast, Ino and the others followed the large group to the Swamp Country further west.
The daimyos of the Land of Fire all rode in ox carts, and Shion, a priestess from the far west, was treated even worse. She knelt alone on a donkey cart, and apart from her pretty looks and outstanding temperament, she looked no different from a country girl going to the market in other aspects.
She had a car to ride, but Ino and the others had to walk. So they just walked. The four of them had no objection to this.
The Demon Country and the Swamp Country are not far apart, equivalent to the distance from one village to another, and can be walked in one day. Not long after leaving the Demon Country, Ino sensed something heart-wrenching in the air.
She instantly appeared beside Shion. Sasuke frowned. The speed of this top-ranked player was so incredible that he couldn't catch up even with his Sharingan. Was this the golden flash on the eastern battlefield? The team was heading due west. Ino pointed to the northwest: "That's the place where your miko is sealed, right?"
Shion said nothing, just stared at her.
"I feel... I feel very uncomfortable. There seems to be something very scary pushing its way into our world. I can't describe it accurately. This thing... This thing seems too big to me. Is it the soul of the monster?"
She felt that these witches must have made a mistake.
She is very knowledgeable about souls, no one understands souls better than her! The thing that is trying to squeeze through the gap is definitely not a monster soul. It looks very similar to the energy of the witch. She is not sure if it is the same energy. According to her understanding, it is more like some kind of grand will.
The witch didn't tell the truth. Either there was something wrong with her, or there was something wrong with that monster.
No matter what their relationship is, at this moment, the monster Wuliang must not be allowed in. Rumor has it that Wuliang can destroy the world. Judging from the chaotic and disordered atmosphere, this seems to be true.
Ino pointed to the river nearby and asked, "If we follow this river, we can reach the sealed place, right?"
Shion continued to explain slowly: "Yes, the source of the Swamp River is the Swamp Country, that direction"
Ino was even more anxious than her and grabbed the reins of the donkey cart: "Stop dragging your feet, what are you waiting for? The critical moment has come, we should have set out overnight! Sit tight, Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, get on!"
It is actually uncomfortable for both the ninja and others to run with someone on their backs. It is okay occasionally, but now the barefoot shrine maiden looks like she is in average physical condition and cannot withstand the ordeal.
Asuma taught Team 10 how to drive a donkey cart, but Team 7 was always fighting and killing, and Kakashi obviously did not have this skill. Ino's reaction speed was much faster than that of ordinary ninjas, so she immediately decided to drive the car herself and take Shion to the sealed place.
Naruto and the others were confused as to why she was suddenly so anxious, but it was very clear that they had to obey the orders of the jonin during the mission, so they jumped into the car one by one.
"How dare you! Put down Her Highness the Miko!" the extremely loyal attendant Zuho shouted from behind.
Considering that this man named Ashiho possessed a unique secret technique, Ino threw a rope to the back, wrapped it around Ashiho's waist, and brought the servant on board. Then the donkey cart rushed towards the sealed area in the northwest.
The hundred or so guards from the Ghost Kingdom were stunned. They wanted to chase after it, but the donkey cart was going too fast. Before they could react, the person had already disappeared from their sight.
Just as the donkey cart suddenly accelerated, on the top of a mountain not far away, four ninjas, three men and one woman, wearing white robes and without any forehead protectors, were staring at the miko and her group.
Seeing the donkey cart suddenly throw away the guards and speed up wildly, the leading ninja was shocked: "They found us, chase them!"
Three men and one woman started chasing fiercely, but their ninja abilities were very average, and under normal circumstances, they were at most at the level of an ordinary Chunin.
But these four were still unaware of the situation and were chasing the donkey cart, shouting and yelling.
"Konoha Ninja! If you have the guts, come and fight me to the death!"
"Stop! If you run again, I will not show you mercy!"
"Kill the two men, capture the woman, and sacrifice her to the great Master Wuliang!"
Ino had been using her perception to observe the wisps of chaotic energy in the distance, and had no intention of paying attention to such a small character who could be killed with just one ninjutsu.
The donkey cart was moving faster and faster under her control, galloping along the river called "Swamp River".
Sasuke originally wanted to use a huge fireball jutsu at the pursuers behind him. The densely packed position of the pursuers was very suitable for fire escape, but the donkey cart drifted all the way at a very fast speed. He was thrown all over the place in the cart and was unable to cast any hand seals at all.
At first, Ziyuan knelt in the cart very solemnly, but when the donkey cart sped up, she could no longer sit still.
Such a simple donkey cart naturally had no guardrails. In a hurry, she could only grab Naruto beside her to steady herself.
Naruto was afraid of death, so in addition to the steel plates on his front and back, before setting off, he also put on an extremely thick suit of armor like a traditional samurai. If nothing else, the weight was no problem.
Shion held onto Naruto tightly, using the "tin man" to block the wind.
Sakura and Ashio were both struggling to hold on. Sasuke even opened his Sharingan and stared at the road ahead, fearing that there would be a car crash and casualties.
If the only son of the Uchiha clan really died with a donkey, he felt that he would become a shame to the Uchiha clan and would not be able to face his parents and clansmen after his death!
