Chapter 873 Charging
Hozuki Castle is not in the Land of Grass.
It is on an island in the sea.
The island is surrounded by high cliffs, and the area below is extremely precipitous.
The only way to get to the island is by boat.
Although Hozuki Castle is just a prison, most of the prisoners have special identities.
The people of Ghost Lantern Castle also made a lot of money.
Many people come here and never leave, and Ghost Lantern Castle gradually expands.
As the number of prisoners increased, so did the number of guards and their families and friends.
The Ghost Lantern Castle is getting bigger and bigger.
However, the Fire Release sealing technique is very suitable for defending this place.
Anyone bound by the Fire Release: Heavenly Prison is completely unable to gather chakra.
Although the Fire Release: Heavenly Prison technique is ineffective in water, the surrounding sea is deep and swift.
Once you jump in, you'll drown before you can even gather your chakra.
In addition to his role as the gatekeeper, Wuwei has already ascended to the position of Lord of Ghost Lantern City.
At this moment, Wuwei was leaving the prison, with a guard dragging a prisoner behind him.
Soon, they arrived at a secret room underground.
Wuwei waved for the guards to leave.
Then Wuwei pressed the mechanism next to him and walked into the secret door next to him.
It's like a biochemical laboratory here, surrounded by all sorts of bottles and jars.
In the middle is a stone bed, and above it are four large lamps.
Wuwei casually tossed the unconscious prisoner onto the platform and then secured the prisoner's limbs.
"Clang, clang, clang..." came the sound of stones being moved from the side.
Wuwei turned his head to look at Wugou, who walked in through another secret door.
"Where's Dragon Tongue?"
Wu Gou smiled slightly: "She's buying some things and will come over later."
Wuwei nodded slightly: "You're both about the same age, it's time to think about marriage."
Wu Gou blushed slightly: "Father, I think things are fine now."
Wuwei glared at Wugou: "Once you learn how to 'open the door,' you two can start preparing for your wedding."
Looking into his father's calm and unwavering eyes, Wu Gou knew that his father always meant what he said.
At this point, he could only awkwardly reply:
"I see."
Since taking the position of Lord of Ghost Lantern City over the years, Wuwei has become increasingly authoritative.
After all, he has to manage a lot of prisoners every day, so it's easier for him to keep a stern face.
Upon hearing Wugou's agreement, Wuwei nodded, his expression softening slightly.
He beckoned to Wugou, summoning her to his side.
Pointing to the unconscious prisoner, he said, "I will now continue to teach you the hand seals to open the Box of Bliss. When you have mastered them, you will be the new gatekeeper."
Wu Gou glanced at the prisoner on the bed, then turned to look at the wall behind her.
Above the wall is a stone wall carved with a huge crying face.
"Father, since I know the Box of Bliss is no good, why should I learn how to open it?"
Wugou was somewhat confused. He had almost been tricked into feeding himself to the Box of Bliss back then, but fortunately, Uchiha Chiyo gave them the information, which made them give up.
Because Wuwei didn't want to go, another gatekeeper, Shigeji, was swallowed up.
Wu Gou still feels lingering fear when she thinks about it now, after all, she was almost the one who was swallowed up.
Wuwei glanced at the stone wall: "Whether you know how to use it or not is a different matter."
"You'll be safer as long as you're not in the sacrificial position."
"After all, I'm the only one in this world who can open the Box of Elysium."
"There is no danger to life if you let the chakra pass through and absorb it."
"But don't throw people in, or they'll be swallowed up like Shigeji."
"If you don't learn it, you won't be able to fool those zodiac elders."
"Yes, Father, I understand."
Wu Gou fell silent.
Wuwei then approached the bound prisoner, his hands forming hand seals.
He was very slow with his hands, because he needed to help his son with his studies.
Wugou watched intently as her father formed hand seals, mimicking the gestures with his hands.
As the Wuwei hand seal ended, he struck the prisoner with his palm.
"Ugh..."
The bound prisoner's eyes rolled back, and he let out an unconscious scream as a large amount of chakra emerged from his body.
As Wuwei waved his hands, the chakra turned into a visible blackish-red color and then floated towards the stone wall.
Seemingly sensing the arrival of chakra, the massive crying-face stone wall began to tremble, and finally, its mouth opened, revealing a deep, dark opening.
It was filled with a purplish-black mist; one could easily lose one's mind and spirit within it.
Wu Gou only glanced at it briefly before not daring to look again.
He is not as strong as his father, and he will be drawn to the Box of Bliss if he stares at it for too long.
After the crying face opened its mouth, a deep malice filled the air, making people shudder.
Normally, this malice would disappear as the crying face closed its mouth, but today it seemed to be attracted by something and drifted in one direction.
"Who!?" Wuwei's face was very serious.
This is the inner city of Hozuki Castle. Only he, his son, and his guards have not had their chakra sealed.
It's impossible for guards to come here; it must be an intruder.
Wuwei immediately closed the Box of Bliss with his seal.
No matter who comes, the most important thing is to close the box first.
The chakra was already limited, and with Wuwei's deliberate closure, the malice emanating from the Box of Bliss vanished instantly.
"Hush...huh..."
A person emerged from the shadows, looking completely absorbed.
It was Obito who had been hiding nearby.
As expected, the demon had not lied to him; the Box of Bliss contained a great deal of resentment, fear, anger, and other emotions.
These are all forces that can be transformed by Zero Tail.
Wuwei had only opened his mouth to absorb chakra, and the emotions that emanated from it allowed Obito to have a "feast".
I feel refreshed and invigorated now.
"Obito!?"
Information about Obito has always been available to the outside world; it's just that he hasn't appeared for many years.
"Wugou, run!" Wuwei's chakra suddenly erupted, and red marks condensed in his palms.
And quickly attacked Obito.
Obito ignored Wuwei and instead blurred his body as he walked toward the bound prisoner.
Wuwei's hand naturally passed through Obito's body.
However, Wuwei showed no surprise whatsoever; he was simply creating time for Wugou.
"Father, let's go together!" Wu Gou not only didn't leave, but also tried to come and take Wu Wei away.
Wuwei slapped Wugou in anger.
Wugou rolled back down the path he had come from, just like a rolling gourd.
"Stop talking nonsense! If you don't leave, we're all going to die here!"
Obito has already checked how much chakra the prisoner used.
"Could this be the Box of Bliss?"
Obito's calm and collected voice reached Wuwei's ears.
Wuwei immediately replied coldly, "That's right, this is the Box of Bliss."
Because the other party possessed the Mangekyou Sharingan, Wuwei did not look into the other party's eyes. Instead, he held his hands in front of him in a defensive posture and slowly retreated towards the entrance of the passage.
"If you want this box, you can take it yourself."
