Chapter 282 - Chapter 283

Shion explained, "Lord Yoruha can use space-time ninjutsu, allowing him to instantly appear in the Land of Marsh from here." Among the three, only Kurotsuchi showed a look of shock. Samui merely furrowed her brows, but that was all.

Temari's expression remained unchanged, as if she had long known that Yoruha could use space-time ninjutsu. Shion thought to herself, 

"As expected, Temari and Lord Yoruha have an unusual relationship. She must know Yoruha very well, and she might even have feelings for him. It seemed like she was a bit wary of me before." "

It makes sense; their statuses and positions are quite equal. One is the bodyguard of the Hokage of Konoha, with formidable strength.

"The other is the sister of the Fifth Kazekage of Sunagakure, also very powerful. However, it seems Lord Yoruha isn't interested in her, which is a good thing." 

As a priestess, Shion's figure and appearance were top-notch. 

While she wasn't much more beautiful than Temari, her figure was something Temari couldn't compete with. 

Although Temari was the Kazekage's sister, Shion was also the priestess of the Land of Demons, so her status wasn't inferior to Temari's.

Thinking of this, Shion finally felt relieved. The reason Shion thought this way was because she also had feelings for Yoruha. 

It was quite natural; Yoruha had excellent qualities, and they had gone through life and death together. 

When she thought she was about to die, it was Yoruha who saved her, and his manner of rescuing her was incredibly heroic.

Of course, she was moved. To Shion, it felt like they had shared life-and-death experiences, though in reality, Moryo posed no threat to Yoruha. But Shion didn't know that.

Both Shion and Temari had their own thoughts. Samui was also somewhat surprised, but only Kurotsuchi was truly puzzled. 

"Yoruha can actually use space-time ninjutsu to instantly traverse thousands of kilometers. Could it be that he knows the Fourth Hokage's Flying Thunder God Technique?"

Kurotsuchi was well aware of the Fourth Hokage and the Flying Thunder God Technique. 

After all, Minato earned the nickname "Yellow Flash" during the Third Shinobi World War, a name given by Iwagakure. 

The phrase "if you encounter the Yellow Flash, you can abandon the mission" also originated from Iwagakure. During the Third Shinobi World War, Minato mainly fought against Iwagakure's ninjas.

Thus, Minato was a significant figure in Iwagakure's history. 

So when Yoruha's space-time ninjutsu was mentioned, Kurotsuchi immediately thought of Minato and the Flying Thunder God Technique. 

Shion didn't know the name of Yoruha's space-time ninjutsu, so she looked at Temari.

She believed Temari would know. Samui actually knew as well, but she remained silent. Temari nodded and said, "Yoruha indeed knows the Flying Thunder God Technique."

Upon hearing this, Kurotsuchi was the most shocked. "So it really is the Flying Thunder God Technique? Is Konoha going to have another Yellow Flash?"

Kurotsuchi was acutely aware of the damage Minato had caused Iwagakure back then. She was very anxious. As the granddaughter of Onoki, Kurotsuchi worried that Yoruha might pose a significant threat to Iwagakure in the future.

She even feared that if another Shinobi World War broke out, Yoruha might replicate the feats of Minato.

"Mastering the Flying Thunder God Technique is no small feat." The shadow cast by the Flying Thunder God Technique over Iwagakure was immense. 

During the Third Shinobi World War, the number of Iwagakure ninjas who fell at the hands of Minato was in the hundreds, if not thousands.

These were not ordinary people; they were ninjas. A few hundred ninjas could easily constitute the entire force in a particular battle. 

Temari glanced at Kurotsuchi, understanding why she was so tense. Samui pondered for a moment before asking, "What about Yoruha?"

Shion replied with a hint of regret, "Lord Yoruha returned after sending me back." 

"He went back?" Temari was taken aback.

Shion nodded, "Yes, he went back." Temari was at a loss for words. She had wanted to have a chat with Yoruha. "He left without even saying a word to me. That's just not right."

At this moment, Kurotsuchi only wanted to bring news of Yoruha back to Iwagakure, while Samui was in no rush. 

Temari had long known of Yoruha's strength, but she hadn't expected him to be able to deal with Moryo, especially since Moryo was said to be immortal. Historically, priestesses had to sacrifice their lives to seal it.

Yet Yoruha managed to defeat it. Temari thought that since Yoruha had taken action, and Shion had mentioned they had eliminated Moryo, it was natural to assume Yoruha had taken down Moryo.

And she was right; Yoruha indeed defeated Moryo. Shion, still shaken from the ordeal, had wanted to ask Yoruha to stay, as she had more to say to him. But before she could speak, Yoruha had already left.

With Moryo dealt with, Temari, Kurotsuchi, and Samui had no reason to remain in the Land of Demons. 

The three Chunin Temari brought and the three Chunin Kurotsuchi brought were all killed. Samui's team, however, suffered no losses.

Perhaps it was because, during the previous battle, the other two members of Samui's team hadn't participated. At that time, Samui had sent them to hold off the immortal army. Only after Moryo was dealt with did they return.

On the way back, Omoi asked Samui curiously, "Samui, what exactly happened? How did Moryo suddenly get dealt with?" It was indeed strange. 

They had been there for less than two days, and the creature that was said to have the power to destroy the world had been defeated.

It was truly unbelievable. Karui also looked at Samui, "Did the priestess act that quickly? She managed to travel from the Land of Demons to the Land of swamps in just one day."

Samui remained silent for a long time before saying, "Someone helped the priestess eliminate Moryo." 

Omoi and Karui were both curious, "Who was it? That was a monster capable of destroying the world, a demon that only the priestess could seal, and someone managed to kill it."

Samui replied, "A Konoha ninja named Yoruha. He's very powerful and has mastered the Fourth Hokage's Flying Thunder God Technique, which allows him to instantly travel from the Land of Demons to the Land of Swamps." 

However, the Flying Thunder God Technique was a mystery to Omoi and Karui. Omoi, puzzled, asked, "What kind of technique is the Flying Thunder God Technique? Is it really that powerful?"

Although Karui didn't know either, she didn't ask, keeping her eyes on Samui, expecting an explanation. The next moment, Samui recounted the exploits of Minato.

After all, there were records in Kumogakure about the ninjas who once faced the Fourth Raikage. 

While Karui and Omoi, both Chunin, were unaware, Samui, a Jonin, knew very well. By the time Samui finished, both Karui and Omoi were astonished. 

"There really are such powerful ninjas. No wonder he could hold his own against the Fourth Raikage and Killer Bee-sensei."
