Chapter 126 The Heartless Kiyoshi, the Shrine Maiden: I've Never Seen Such a Shameless Person
Miroku turned to look at Kiyoshi, his hands clenching slightly.
The incident with Kiyoshi was due to circumstances.
Now that the demon is dead, the relationship between the two has become somewhat awkward.
Kiyoshi turned his gaze to the noble priestess.
It must be said that contrast is a very attractive thing.
Who would have thought that when Chihaya took the medicine, Miroku was wearing white silk, seemingly to avoid exposing himself.
The white stockings actually made her thighs look even rounder, leaving some marks on them.
Unfortunately, it looks very plain and monotonous, lacking any decorative patterns.
Or rather, it's very conservative, not much different from the tight pants worn by ninjas, which effectively prevents accidental exposure.
"You know medical ninjutsu?"
Maitreya asked.
She recognized that gaze.
Kiyoshi, standing at the entrance to the passage, also had the same gaze.
But this is in public!
"Um……"
At this moment, a look of pain appeared on the face of the Daimyo of the Land of Demons, drawing everyone's attention.
The death of a daimyo is no small matter; it is said that the Land of Demons has not yet left behind a qualified successor.
If the daimyo dies like this, the Land of Demons will definitely fall into chaos for a period of time until a new daimyo of the Land of Demons takes over.
Maitreya also turned to look.
Kiyoshi walked behind Miroku and looked at the daimyo, who was in pain.
At the same time, his hand slipped unintentionally.
Kiyoshi has a silk-like texture.
Maitreya stared wide-eyed, too afraid to turn around.
His face showed disbelief.
How dare Kiyoshi be so audacious!
"That's wonderful, His Highness has woken up."
Zu Si spoke excitedly.
He looked at Miroku with a mixture of relief and bitterness, probably because of the revival of the Daimyo of the Land of Demons.
Just like in the novels, knights are always there to protect princesses, and princesses are usually paired with princes.
Everyone has their own role.
Zu Si quickly composed herself.
"Let's try something more complicated next time."
Kiyoshi walked over.
Maitreya's delicately furrowed brows tightened, and he almost instinctively snapped at her.
Does this guy just like to take advantage of others?
"Kiyoshi, I haven't learned any more complex medical ninjutsu yet."
Nohara Rin shook her head.
She assumed that Kiyoshi was referring to the low level of her medical ninjutsu.
"It's nothing, I'll do it."
Kiyoshi dismissed Nohara Rin, and a pale green light appeared in his hand as he began to treat the daimyo and sustain his life.
Seeing that Kiyoshi had begun treating the daimyo, the shrine maiden suppressed her emotions.
After receiving emergency treatment, Kiyoshi took advantage of Minato Namikaze and the others leaving to collect the corpses of several ninjas from the Land of Demons.
The corpses were barely recognizable as human, not because of the damage from ninjutsu, but because of their mutation.
This makes it increasingly difficult for them to be called "human beings".
…………
After some time, Kiyoshi and the others returned to the Land of Demons.
When Minazuki Yuuki saw Seiji return, he quickly asked Seiji to treat his hand.
Emergency treatment can only prevent the situation from worsening; to fully recover, medical ninjutsu is still necessary.
Kiyoshi refused outright, citing the need to prioritize treating the Daimyo of the Land of Demons.
When he tried to find Nohara Rin, Kiyoshi brought up the same excuse again, saying that Nohara Rin had to work in shifts and that the daimyo's life was hanging by a thread.
Yuuki Minazuki's expression changed repeatedly, but in the end he could only let Kiyoshi and Rin Nohara prioritize treating the daimyo.
His hand, that of an ordinary Jonin, couldn't possibly be more valuable than the life of a Daimyo.
Even the smallest country has a great name.
Even the Third Hokage needed to be cautious to avoid causing a diplomatic incident.
After all, these daimyo were not actually part of the ninja system, but rather belonged to a different system.
Nominally, it is on the same level as a film.
After receiving confirmation that the priestess would arrange for the Land of Demons to export the corresponding resources, the Sunagakure ninja hurriedly returned to Sunagakure to report this information back.
If they can accomplish this, their mission is complete.
"Given Daimyo's situation, I will come and check on him every now and then."
Kiyoshi stopped releasing his ninjutsu.
The man on the bed was pale and needed to catch his breath before he could speak. He was panting heavily.
"Is it possible for me to recover?"
"Daiming" refers to one's abilities in that area.
The Land of Demons currently has no heir. If he is not fit, the only option is for a collateral branch to inherit the throne, by adopting a child from one of the brothers to raise as the next daimyo.
"I'm afraid it will be difficult; it requires precisely channeling the limited life force downwards."
Kiyoshi pretended to look troubled.
"What about the princess of the Thousand Hands? Wasn't she said to be very skilled in medicine?"
Upon hearing this, the lord almost collapsed onto the bed, and the guards beside him quickly supported him.
"Lady Tsunade hasn't had surgery for many years, so I'm afraid she'll have a hard time dealing with this disease."
Kiyoshi shook his head.
Medical ninjutsu isn't a panacea. Tsunade only had a 50% success rate in treating Rock Lee's injuries from Gaara's attack, and that was only after Tsunade had recovered from her hemophobia.
The current Tsunade... tsk.
Unless the daimyo has the ability to talk his way out of anything, it's impossible.
Tsunade's status is special and she is very noble, so even the daimyo cannot force her.
She is Hashirama's granddaughter, and Hashirama was a ninja who re-established order.
That's why Tsunade is called "Hime" – not only because she's good at fighting, but also because of her blood relation.
Of course, "Hime" is not a title that can be used for women other than princesses, but so far, only Tsunade in Konoha is called Tsunade-hime.
"Is there really no hope?"
Undeterred, Daming continued to ask.
"There is a way, but I need the priestess's help. I can sense that the priestess's chakra has a suppressive effect on the demon. I also happen to have the demon's body in my possession. Let's see if we can restore the life force that the daimyo has lost."
Kiyoshi said calmly.
Replenishing vitality is never an easy task. Even Shennong's "Forbidden Medical Techniques: Physical Transformation" and "Forbidden Medical Techniques: Physical Activation," which transformed him from an old man into a young adult, were merely a buff.
It won't have any effect unless it runs continuously.
Sasuke used the Chidori Needle to seal his chakra points, instantly turning him back to his original form.
"real?"
The priestess, who had been standing at the back, suddenly asked, her eyes filled with hope.
"I can't guarantee success, but there's a possibility of success."
Qing Si looked at Maitreya.
He said this, of course, so that he would have a legitimate reason to continue visiting the Land of Demons to meet with Miroku.
It was also a backup plan in case of war.
If one day things really come to the point where the brains of the five great nations are all being fought, Kiyoshi can use this as an excuse to seek refuge in the Land of Demons.
Who knows if the Fourth Shinobi World War will change after he's here, or if it will become even more intense?
"it is good."
Maitreya agreed to this.
Regardless of the circumstances, Daming and she had known each other for so long.
Now that he can't even be a man, I feel a little sorry for Daming.
When Daimyo saw that Miroku had agreed, he was also very happy.
Kiyoshi then suggested that he speak with the priestess alone to discuss how to treat her illness.
The two arrived at an empty room filled with expensive decorations and furniture.
"By the way, what about the bell artifact I gave you before?"
Before Qing Si could speak, Miroku stretched out her fair, delicate hand and demanded her things.
"Consider it my payment. After all, even without this, it won't affect the continuation of the shrine maiden's line, will it?"
Qing Si smiled faintly.
The shrine maiden was taken aback by Kiyoshi's matter-of-fact tone.
It is said that the Uchiha clan is a proud clan that cares most about face and reputation.
Why does Kiyoshi seem to disregard the honor of the Uchiha clan?
She took several deep breaths to calm her boiling emotions.
She parted her red lips slightly and said:
"What do you need me to do for you?"
"I need to understand the shrine maiden's sealing technique."
Kiyoshi said.
"This...can it really help cure the daimyo?"
Maitreya still harbored a sliver of doubt.
"Your Highness, don't you believe me?"
Kiyoshi glanced at Miroku's hand, which hadn't yet lowered, and gently touched its skin.
Maitreya immediately withdrew his hand as if electrocuted, and said with a hint of anger:
Do you even know how much older I am than you?
"The larger ones have more charm."
"..."
Miroku found that she was unable to maintain the noble demeanor of a priestess in Seiji's presence.
She just wanted to grab Kiyoshi by the neck like a shrew and ask him how he could be so shameless.
"Oh, right, you still have to give me some money."
"Will you give me money?"
Maitreya was almost laughing in exasperation.
The red stone inside the bell artifact is a treasure passed down through generations of priestesses. Do you really think just any random thing can store chakra?
Miroku estimated that if he had a daughter, she could use the chakra in the bell artifact just like he did when she got old.
Kiyoshi shamelessly kept all this good stuff for himself, and now he wants money?
"This knife was obtained for me through the help of an elder I greatly admire. Don't you think I should be given some compensation for its repair?"
Kiyoshi summoned the ninja sword, and it was visibly damaged.
Maitreya bit his lip and stood there for a while to calm himself down. Thinking that he still needed to rely on Qing Si to treat his illness, he finally agreed to give Qing Si 500,000 taels of silver.
When the guards brought the money, and Kiyoshi accepted it, he instantly felt like he had saved himself several years of hard work.
He then asked Miroku about some matters related to the sealing techniques passed down through generations of priestesses.
Maitreya assumed that Qingsi had taken the money and started doing his job, so he began to tell Qingsi all this.
These were originally closely guarded secrets, but now that the demons are gone, the rules don't need to be followed so rigidly anymore.
three days later.
Kiyoshi kept the daimyo's condition at a critical level, preventing it from deteriorating further.
Then they returned to Konoha with Minato Namikaze and the others.
In the past few days, in addition to the sealing techniques personally taught by Miroku, Kiyoshi also obtained some scrolls of sealing techniques.
These are all items used to deal with evil spirits.
It's not very effective against humans, but it can be tried against tailed beasts.
Tailed beasts, like demons and other monsters, are not considered life forms in the conventional sense.
They are basically made of chakra, as are the flesh and blood in their bodies.
This involves the mysteries of the "Yin-Yang Escape Technique," the principles of which Kiyoshi is currently unaware of.
For example, if a demon is a collection of negative emotions, or a collection of dark chakra, why does it have flesh and blood?
The Nine-Tails is the same. It is clearly a collection of chakra, but it also has flesh and blood. Kinkaku and Ginkaku from the Land of Lightning even gained the power of the Nine-Tails after eating its flesh and were able to use the Tailed Beast Cloak.
