Ghost Lantern City,
Or just call it [Blood Prison], which may be more familiar to ninjas in the ninja world.
It is built on a huge floating island. The rapid undercurrents and waves on all sides make it an isolated place.
It is nominally under the jurisdiction of Caoyin Village.
But in fact, this enclave far away from the Land of Grass and lacking in resources is just a huge prison used to imprison ninjas who have been exiled from various ninja villages.
The reason why the Kusagakure ninja, who is not very powerful, is entrusted as the manager is because the next ninja family follows a powerful confinement technique: [Fire Release·Tianlao! 】
This confinement technique is to drive chakra chains with binding capabilities into the target's body to restrict the target's concentration of chakra, making it unable to use ninjutsu to resist or escape.
And the most important point is that if the target subject to this spell is too far away from the caster, it will also be burned to death by the chain of flames transformed by this spell.
To sum up, since the establishment of Ghost Lantern City, there are only two endings for the ninjas imprisoned in each village:
1. Relieve the crisis of self-confidence and be taken back by the Ninja Village where you belong;
Two, die.
But today, it seems that the third ending is coming.
"Tuk tuk tuk,"
Accompanied by a dull tapping sound of a wooden crutch, a generous old man slowly walked up the spiraling stone steps to the ground.
As he settled down, four strange guys wearing red trench coats and ferocious bronze masks lined up behind him one by one, like the most loyal slaves.
"you!"
"You actually obey an outsider!!"
"Are you betraying your original intention and the will of the village?"
Opposite this group of people was a middle-aged man wearing a black officer's uniform and white gloves.
He, who was usually extremely graceful, had lost that state of ease.
Just because, countless guards in dark green uniforms fell in a pool of blood, and the smell of blood and burning filled the entire place.
Not only was this prison, which was almost impossible to break through, invaded by outsiders but was now littered with corpses, even the top brass behind the scenes were following the instigator! !
However, in response to such a question, the four strangely dressed beings standing behind them did not respond. Instead, the entire field suddenly heard the violent sound of metal falling to the ground.
'哐哐哐......'
Following the sound, I saw that the rows of prison cells were cut off by a strong wind that crossed the field. The ninjas from each village who were imprisoned in them also filed out with ferocious expressions and curses at this moment.
Although it is not known what changes have taken place in this isolated prison in this short period of time, the embarrassment of Wuwei, the lord of Ghost Lantern City, is undoubtedly a scene that these extremely evil people are happy to see.
After all, since they were exiled here from their respective villages, this unsmiling and hateful warden has made them suffer a lot with his special family secret technique, [Sky Prison].
"Sa, get in line quickly, get in line."
"However, you have to pay homage to your benefactor, Lord Danzo."
When the exiles walked out of the prison, a sharp voice sounded across the land.
Following the sound, I saw a team of five ninjas.
There is no clear sign of belonging, nor are they wearing standard ninja uniforms, and their loose and bohemian appearance is more like a group of unfashionable wandering ninjas.
"Oh, I didn't ask you to release me!"
"You want to order me, but you are not qualified!"
"Danzo?"
"Which Danzo, Shimura Danzo of Konoha? That little old man?"
"Haha, I remember when I came in, he had already been designated an S-class traitorous ninja by Konoha!"
"Unexpectedly, he actually sneaked into this prison on his own initiative."
"..."
Even though the pungent smell of blood clearly stimulated the senses of these prisoners, not many of them obeyed, but instead mocked with disdain.
After all, almost none of the guys who can be imprisoned in this isolated place are good, and bloodshed alone is not enough to make them surrender.
Even if the chakra in the body is sealed, the self-sustained physical skills still make these guys far beyond the scope of ordinary people.
The reason why Wuwei was able to subdue them easily was entirely due to the [Heavenly Prison] technique that was engraved on his chest as soon as he entered this place.
As long as this technique exists, they can't even think of touching that damned Ghost Lantern City Lord!
"Look, what is that?"
"That thing gave me a really bad feeling."
At the same time, some observers from all over the world immediately found one of the crux of the turmoil:
A huge devil's box! !
I saw that this dark and scary devil's box was roughly in the shape of a cube. It looked like a small hill when viewed up close, with terrifying ghost faces carved on all sides. There was a faint dark purple evil light growing from these ghosts. burst out from his mouth and tongue.
At this moment, it is being blocked by the Lord of Ghost Lantern City and the few remaining jailers.
However, those supervisors did not immediately manage the criminals who were released from prison without authorization. Instead, they remained in front of the huge devil's box. They could boldly guess that this mysterious object was the fundamental reason for the creation of this blood prison! !
"It is rumored that Kusakure Village almost acquired the entire world at some point."
When most of the people's eyes fell on the extremely eye-catching huge box, a solemn recollection attracted the attention of the densely packed prisoners around it.
This is a little old man,
The dry hair is gray and white, the skinny limbs are like bamboo poles, and there are several red marks engraved on the exposed withered chest.
This mark is the proof of [Fire Release·Tianlao]!
"Damn old man, get out of here, get out of here quickly, if you don't get out of here, don't blame me for breaking your thin legs!"
What followed was not the urgent questioning of the crowd, but an arrogant and rude angry shout.
I saw that the old man wearing a Takigakure forehead protector was standing on the shoulders of a fat man. If not for this, he would probably not be able to see his presence in this huge sea of people, nor would he be able to clearly see the terrifying devil's box among the backs of everyone's heads.
However, don't look at this little old man who is as skinny as a stick and looks ill-fated. When the fat man underneath him is waving his arms and eager to catch him, the elderly Takigakure is stunned. Hengtiao was not pulled down.
"What's going on? Old Man Yun."
"Kusagakure gets the world?"
"You must be too old and have mistaken the wrong person, right? Hahaha!"
Here, there were also voices full of doubts.
Most of the sinners here lived in a time when the five major ninja villages were basically the same: Konoha Dominance, Kumogakure, Kirigakure, Sunagakure, and Iwagakure, followed by Kusagakure. In their impression, Kusagakure Village was really like this. Ming is a wallflower who only knows how to play both sides.
Get the whole world?
This is completely different from the weak image of Caoyin Village! !
"What an ignorant brat."
Upon hearing such a blunt rebuttal, the little old man immediately jumped up, stepped on the crushing crowd, and soon landed on the speaker, and mercilessly slapped the mocker on the head. .
"If you don't know, just shut up and listen. Don't you know that every elder in the family is like a treasure?"
Old Man Yun scolded him silently and angrily.
Then he continued:
"There is a reason why Caoyin Village was invincible in all directions at that time,"
"Because at that time they got something left by the Immortal of Six Paths,"
"That thing is called the [Box of Bliss], and it is also known as the ultimate weapon."
At this point, the surrounding atmosphere suddenly became much quieter. A pair of eyes, including the mocker who wanted to pull the little old man off his body, were staring at him blankly at this moment, waiting for the next step.
"Because it is said that anyone who gets it can have any wish come true after making a wish to it."
As soon as these words came out, in the dark space where hundreds of people were gathered together, you could hear a pin drop!
Make your wishes come true!
What a magical and incredible thing this is! !
If this is the case, let alone a genuine ninja village like Kusagakure, even a small and unknown force may have the possibility of becoming king!
As the thoughts evolved, a series of heavy breathing began to break the absolute silence.
Human beings all have desires,
What about the sinners who were exiled and imprisoned in this isolated place, where they could only wait for death?
"Then, then why did Caoyin Village fall into the state it is today and not dominate the entire world?"
After a brief silence, doubtful questions continued.
This time, the old man Takigakure, who was running around like a monkey, was stopped.
Ask him about this kind of thing, how would he know?
"I don't know why."
In agreement, he rolled his eyes.
"Perhaps the wish made by Caoyin Village is too big, and subsequent supplies are unable to do so."
"Perhaps there are differences within Caoyin Village and internal disintegration."
"Anyway, you don't think that this kind of thing can be used whenever you want, right?"
The old man looked at the guys who were eager for answers like they were idiots.
Do you really think that this kind of divine object can be controlled by a certain person?
How ridiculous.
"But I did hear that when the world was almost conquered, huge changes did occur within Caoyin Village, which eventually led to the collapse of the entire village, until it fell into the state it is in today."
he continued.
Although the subsequent story weakened most of the magic of the box, most of the sinners present still looked at the huge box with burning eyes.
Because there is no doubt that even if the box with the mysterious ghost engraved on it is not as magical and powerful as the old man said, just because it is protected by the Lord of Ghost Lantern City, it must be a precious treasure! !
And if it really is a universal wish-making machine......
At first, the guilty person unconsciously moved towards the location of the [Box of Bliss].
Since the treasure has been born, why can't it be yours?
As for the price mentioned by the old man, it was no longer within their consideration.
"Dong dong dong."
However, at this moment, a harsh steel knocking sound suddenly rose from the ground.
The harsh knocking sound almost stopped after attracting the attention of all the sinners in the area.
Ignoring those angry glances, Shizuku threw away the iron rod in her hand and spoke with arrogance:
"Hey, hey, you guys, didn't you hear what I just said?"
"Either you stand obediently behind Danzo-sama and bow your head;"
"Or just find a cemetery you like quickly."
"Also, that box belongs to my family. I advise you not to think too hard, otherwise..."
At the end of her words, she spoke in a deliberately long voice, with a strong special meaning contained in it.
"Promise?"
"He's just a crippled, bereaved dog. He really thinks of himself as a character!"
"Uncle, I..."
How could Shizuku's few words easily suppress these vicious people? Before he finished speaking, the villain taunted him with all his arrogance.
Ninjutsu is sealed, not taijutsu!
He had no reason to be afraid of cats and dogs who did not have the [Heavenly Prison] destiny.
What's more, the number of sinners here is ten times or a hundred times that of these bastards! !
But equally,
The taunt was also silent, and a fountain-like column of blood shot out from his neck, and a head that still showed a ferocious look fell to the ground.
Just like those broken steel cages, Yu Zhi's neck was cut flat without any sign of the blade being applied, and his life was taken away sharply.
Such a scene does have a certain deterrent effect.
At first, a small group of sinners who cherished their lives began to leave the reunited army and trotted towards the old man on crutches who never made a sound.
However, such surrender did not end well.
I saw that several timid prisoners walking at the forefront suddenly burst into flames, and quickly turned into a mass of charred corpses amidst the shrill screams.
This scene caused those cowardly sinners who had started to act to stop moving forward in an instant.
They clearly understood that this was not spontaneous combustion, but the [Heavenly Prison] seal imposed on the body by the Lord of Ghost Lantern City had an effect! !
"Kill them, and then I will plead with your village so that you can get out of here as soon as possible and return to normal life!"
Wuwei also gave a cold command at this moment,
To be honest, the guards in the prison were basically just decorations. They were just ordinary soldiers used in the daily lives of criminals. They were not even ninjas, so they were slaughtered in such a one-sided manner.
After all, the only caretaker this prison really needs is him!
As long as one of them is alive, no one can escape.
However, the people imprisoned here are all genuine ninjas. Even if the chakra is sealed, it is not something ordinary people can compare with!
"If it is not carried out,"
"Ghost Lantern City was attacked by villains, and all the prisoners in the prison died."
"Afterwards, I can only report this to each village."
Seeing that the weak command was useless, Wuwei added in a cold voice again, raising his fingers more like a prelude to launching some kind of magic.
