After a while, Kikku stood up and said, "Respected Priestess, we can help you get through this difficult time. We only have one request: to cooperate with our Sunagakure after the event and export rice, potatoes and other resources to our country."
If a war really ocuurs, then every second will cost money.
The issue of food is a top priority, and a supply of grain must be accumulated in the country as soon as possible.
Other countries may not have to be so troublesome, but most of the Land of Wind is a desert, so they have to plan as soon as possible.
"Okay." Miroku nodded.
Now that the daimyo has been possessed by Moryo, she can make decisions on many things.
In the Land of Demons, the Priestess's status is almost equal to that of the daimyo.
"Wait a minute, Priestess."
When all the ninjas and some of the guards were about to go to the Land of Swamps, Kiyoshi suddenly spoke.
"What's the matter? Uchiha ninja, the situation is very urgent now."
Originally, Miroku didn't want to pay attention and just wanted to rush to seal Moryo.
When she turned her head and saw that it was Kiyoshi who was speaking, she changed her mind.
Kiyoshi had appeared in the prophecy, and it seemed that he had done something to her later.
This made Miroku very concerned. She wanted to know what Kiyoshi would do to her.
Why did it produce the same ominous aura as Moryo?
"I want to ask, Priestess has a sealing technique passed down for thousands of years, so she should have seen through the daimyo's disguise long ago. Why hasn't she taken action all this time? As a result, the daimyo attacked Kurenai under Moryo's bewitchment."
Kiyoshi's tone was a little intense. But his heart was very calm.
At the beginning of the movie, Yomi had lifted the seal.
At that time, Moryo didn't dare to come out, saying that his soul would disappear immediately.
The interesting thing is, can't the Priestess think of this?
What's the point of sealing?
The only possibility is the ancestral motto passed down from generation to generation by the Priestesses.
If Moryo doesn't exist, the Priestess can't maintain such a detached status.
The people in the ninja world are very realistic. Things that can't bring them benefits will only be regarded as "monsters".
You can see the fate of Haku and Kimimaro when they were young.
"Kiyoshi, now is not the time to dwell on this." Minato said.
He glanced at Yūki, who had recovered some strength and was bandaging himself.
Now that they have lost a valuable jonin combat power, the mission of protecting the Priestess has become very tense.
Maybe if they go to Moryo a minute later, Moryo will become stronger.
After knowing that his sealimg technique was useless against Moryo, Minato became very cautious.
He has been in contact with Kushina all this time, and he knows very well how powerful the Uzumaki clan's sealing techniques are.
"Minato-sama, I just can't understand this kind of behavior. My teammate was almost hurt."
Kiyoshi looked at Kurenai and said.
Kurenai quickly waved her hand and said she was fine. But her heart felt warm. Kiyoshi actually cared about her so much.
A few unnatural expressions flashed across Miroku's face, and she sighed softly.
Kiyoshi had bravely stood in front of her alone just now, so he must be a kind-hearted and very righteous ninja.
His companion was almost killed, so he would naturally be angry.
"How dare you be so presumptuous to the Priestess!"
"How could the Priestess do such a thing!"
The guards around the Priestess felt unhappy about Kiyoshi's questioning attitude.
This is the most honorable Priestess. Can a mere ninja question her?
Even the daimyo doesn't dare to say that his status is higher than the Priestess.
"This matter is indeed my fault. I still had a fantasy about the daimyo. As for Moryo, that's because there will be another Moryo after one Moryo is destroyed. It's best to seal him up like this."
Miroku shook her head, a hint of loneliness flashing across her mature face.
Sealing Moryo requires the price of life, but she has not yet married and given birth to the next generation of Priestess.
Is the inheritance going to end with her generation?
"Is that so?"
A faint smile flashed in Kiyoshi's eyes.
It's good that she has hesitation and guilt. This will be conducive to his next step.
"Priestess..."
Listening to Miroku frankly admitting her mistakes, the surrounding guards were a little unable to accept it.
Especially the most devout Seto.
He almost regarded the priestess as a god in his heart.
But... the perfect priestess also has the seven emotions and six desires of ordinary people.
As a priestess, she allowed Moryo to cause a series of evil consequences today.
"I will apologize to the citizens of the Land of Demons afterwards. Now let's go and stop Moryo quickly."
Miroku walked ahead first.
Receiving a clear answer from the priestess, Kikku happily led the Sunagakure ninjas to follow her.
Maki looked back at Kiyoshi. She hadn't expected Kiyoshi to value his companions so much.
"Yūki-san, you should stay here first." Minato said.
Hearing this, Yūki nodded. It would be better for someone like him to stay here.
If a ninja can't perform hand seals, most of his combat power is lost.
"Let's go."
Minato asked his team and Kiyoshi and the others to quickly chase after the priestess.
Moryo's flamboyant appearance could not be concealed from the citizens of the Land of Demons at all. Many people saw that terrifying scene.
When they learned that the priestess was going to seal him, some people seized the time to drag their families and run out of the Land of Demons, fearing that the seal would fail.
Others chose to travel to the Land of Swamp with Miroku.
The Land of Swamps is not far from the Land of Demons. Both are very small countries, and it doesn't take long to get there quickly.
Miroku was moved when she saw the citizens of the Land of Demons following her.
Not only that, but also the citizens and soldiers of the Land of Swamp came over.
Obviously, the flying Moryo was too conspicuous, and the daimyo of the Land of Swamps also knew about this.
Both countries have been harmed by Moryo, so they each have established a Shrine to seal Moryo.
When it was midnight, everyone arrived there.
What came into view was a huge army. Stone soldiers were constantly walking out of the mounds outside the Shrine.
They held spears or swords and slowly began to attack the priestess.
Kiyoshi roughly estimated that they were about a thousand in number.
The biggest advantage of these stone soldiers is their large number, and that ordinary kunai cannot break their defense.
Kakashi's Chidori can only smash about a dozen of them at a time.
But how many times can he use it?
It won't take long before his chakra will be exhausted.
"I can't use Rasengan in this situation." Minato frowned.
"Rasengan" was the name Kushina had given his newly created ninjutsu.
He had apologized to Kushina, and then Kushina had said the name casually.
So Minato changed the name from Halo Popsicle Inspired Whirlwind Jiraiya Double Release Ball to Rasengan.
