Chapter 167: Is your friend beautiful? (Patreon)

There were gods and there were spirits in this world.

The ninja system has only existed for about a thousand years, while the priestess system, which can also be considered a divine system, goes back hundreds, even thousands of years.

In the records of the Shion family, there were various strange gods on the earth at that time.

Like the Shinigami, Jashin the god of evil, as well as the three sacred places.

People worshipped and revered them.

But gradually, the power of the gods dissipated in the world, and the Chakra system rose rapidly.

The demon was also one of the originals, but its power was too evil and was sealed away, and the seal has been preserved to this day.

After listening to these secrets, Colt also became enlightened.

The most critical variable in this was the planting of the God Tree.

The formation of the Chakra fruit required the God Tree to continuously absorb the energy of the planet and convert it into nutrients.

Colt could already imagine how many gods and spirits perished one after another during the process of the Chakra fruit's condensation, trying to destroy the God Tree.

They were then killed by Kaguya Ōtsutsuki.

However, the toads of Mount Myōboku managed to help the Sage of Six Paths and his brother seal Kaguya.

This prevented natural energy from continuing to decrease.

But even so, the environment had become much worse than before, and the figures of various gods had disappeared.

Beings like the Shinigami, living in special dimensions, could still survive.

However, the Pure Land created by the Sage of Six Paths took away most of their business, and their influence waned.

Colt shook his head; he wasn't good at commenting on who was right or wrong.

Kaguya was an outsider, an intruder.

But according to Shion, humans before Kaguya didn't have much power either.

Except for the few chosen by the gods, everyone else was like a lamb to be slaughtered.

All they could do every day was make offerings to these gods and pray for their blessings.

After Kaguya, the Sage of Six Paths passed on the use of Chakra, making humans the masters of the earth.

Colt was also a beneficiary of it and couldn't bite the hand that fed him.

Anyway, this convoluted history had nothing to do with him, as long as he could ensure that the power he possessed was strong enough.

If he could gain the Shinigami's abilities and become stronger now, he would switch allegiances immediately.

He was just that pragmatic.

The two shuttled through the forest constantly, with Colt jumping over dozens of trees each time.

Behind him, Shion with every jump of his, it made her heart skip a beat.

Her face flushed even more when she thought of what she had seen earlier.

The two came to a volcano, and there was a temple on the mountainside.

"It should be here."

Several question marks appeared on Colt's forehead.

Shion also realized her slip of the tongue and jumped off his back.

At this time, the ground shook for a while, and a large number of stone ninjas emerged.

Looking at the dense army, Shion's face turned pale.

Colt swept across with a lightning spear in his hand, killing a large amount, but soon, more came out from below.

"Troublesome, let's go to the temple. Hold on tight."

Muttering softly, he hugged Shion's slender waist.

The blue [Susanoo] quickly took shape, and a blue long sword appeared in his hand, sending out a series of slashes.

The road to the gate of the temple was instantly cleared.

Like a bulldozer, the two of them came to the entrance of the temple.

"[Summoning Technique]!"

"Woof?"

After completing another task, Ichibi finally found a moment of rest at home.

However, in the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of his master.

"These weaklings will be handed over to you. Don't let even one in, or your dog food will be halved for a while."

"Woof?"

Ichibi looked at Colt in disbelief.

The dog food he was talking about was bought with his hard-earned money!

Colt glared at him, and Ichibi immediately became obedient.

You are the master; you are the greatest.

"Remember, don't attack with your body, use Chakra."

After instructing him, Colt walked into the temple with Shion.

"Is your Summoning beast going to be okay?"

Shion remembered the 'intelligent' look in Ichibi's eyes, and she was a little doubtful in her heart.

"Don't worry, Ichibi might look silly, but his strength is absolutely fine."

Colt reassured her.

His dog was a future dog sage, and he would have no problem dealing with these trash mobs.

"Alright."

Shion could only trust him.

"You are finally here, Priestess."

When the two walked through the passage, they came to an altar wrapped in magma.

Moryo was already waiting there.

At this time, he had been eroded by the power of the demon and had become inhuman, only able to sit on the altar.

"You monster, I will completely seal you like my mother did back then," Shion said firmly.

Moryo, the demon, seemed to find this amusing and laughed wildly up to the sky.

"Hahaha! Seal me? Don’t you know that you and I are one?"

"You are a priestess, I am a demon, we are all part of the same entity, just different aspects."

"What?" Shion was obviously shocked by the news.

"It's impossible, you're lying to me!"

"It’s true."

Colt stood in front of Shion.

He could sense that their powers came from the same source, but they were opposed to each other.

As if struck by lightning, Shion staggered back two steps, and Colt took her hand.

"I haven't finished yet. The power of the two of you has long been divided; you are good, he is evil."

"I have a friend whose condition is similar to yours. She also has an evil side, but she's alright now."

After listening to Colt's explanation, Shion calmed down a lot and asked curiously.

"Is your friend beautiful?"

Colt replied subconsciously.

"She's pretty and has a good figure, but your beauty is different."

After he finished speaking, he reflected and looked at Shion in disbelief.

‘Hey, is this the time to ask such a question?’

He was about to be defeated by this woman's thought process.

When Shion heard Colt's reply, a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

"Enough! Are you even taking me seriously?"

Seeing that Shion easily brushed off his temptation and was still flirting with Colt, Moryo immediately became annoyed and angry.

The evil Chakra turned into a long black dragon and attacked Colt and Shion.

Colt raised his eyebrows, instantly activating the [Sage Mode], and [Kaminari] slashed at the black dragon.
