"I never expected to meet a Ninja in the game."
Yashiki Kagaya looked at the appearance of the newcomer, his eyes filled with surprise. He politely said, "I am the current head of the Ubuyashiki Family and the leader of the Demon Slayer Corps. I am very grateful for your help."
"Don't mention it, it's just a small favor."
The player, who looked quite young, with goggles hanging around his neck and a thick blue scarf trailing to his feet, waved his hand.
After hearing Yashiki Kagaya's words, he asked in confusion, "I haven't heard of the Ubuyashiki Family. Are they nobles from the Five Great Nations?"
He was Konohamaru.
Although the Ninja World had changed drastically, he had seemingly never heard of a family called Ubuyashiki.
"Five Great Nations?"
This time, it was Yashiki Kagaya and Gyomei Himejima's turn to be confused.
They had also never heard of the Five Great Nations.
The Demon Slayer World had only one large continent and one country. Although man-eating Demons existed, they had not shaken the country's foundations, which had been very stable for centuries, making the existence of other countries impossible.
The two sides exchanged glances.
After some discussion, they quickly understood the situation, both quite shocked.
Yashiki Kagaya, with a gentle smile, said, "To think it's a player from an Otherworld. What a peculiar encounter."
There was no tension.
He himself was not the type of calculating ambitious person, and the other party was a child of tender age.
Most importantly, there was no death in the Reincarnation Game. Even if attacked by surprise, one would simply return to the real world, only needing to pay a small revival fee.
"If you don't mind, we can act together."
Konohamaru was just worried about not having companions.
He had just become a player, and his level was too far behind Naruto and the others to team up with them.
So he could only come to Gran Forest alone, and he never expected to meet a player from an Otherworld.
"Thank you very much."
Yashiki Kagaya agreed without hesitation.
Although the other party was a child, his instant kill of the Ice Goblin just now made it impossible to underestimate him. Acting with him would be more beneficial to him and Gyomei.
"Mr. Konohamaru, was that a Ninja-specific explosion pellet you just threw?"
Gyomei Himejima clasped his hands together, mourning for the dead Goblin.
Along the way,
Most of the dozens of Goblins they encountered were dealt with by the young Ninja Konohamaru.
The other party could unleash explosive flames, with astonishing power.
The Sound Pillar, who was seemingly from a Ninja Clan, also had similar explosive creations.
Konohamaru was surprised and said, "It's Ninja Art. You know Ninjas, but have you never seen Ninja Art?"
In the Ninja World, even ordinary civilians knew about the existence of Ninja Art.
However, thinking that the other party was from an Otherworld, Konohamaru felt it was understandable.
He generously shared information about the Ninja World.
If he were to casually leak information to outsiders, most Ninjas, except for the equally thick-skinned Naruto, would throw Konohamaru into prison if they saw him.
"Ninja Art, Bloodline Limit..."
Yashiki Kagaya felt his horizons broadening.
Breathing Techniques were already the most advanced training methods humans in Demon Slayer could access, but most could at best train to split rocks and cut bridges.
The strongest recorded, Yoriichi Tsugikuni,
Even in the Ninja World that Mr. Konohamaru spoke of, his strength would not be among the strongest.
"A battle that can change the landscape, no wonder he's called the Ninja God!"
Gyomei Himejima trembled all over as he listened, excitedly clasping his hands and muttering softly.
If he had that level of power,
A mere Muzan Kibutsuji could be crushed with a flick of a finger.
Konohamaru showed a panicked expression, saying nervously, "To think there's a creature like a Demon, active at night, mastering various strange Blood Demon Arts, skilled at stealthy killing..."
As he spoke,
His expression became slightly strange. Why did it feel more and more like a Ninja?
"Mr. Konohamaru."
A bold idea emerged in Yashiki Kagaya's mind. He asked, "If the Ubuyashiki Family could show enough sincerity, would it be possible to hire the Ninja God to come to the Demon Slayer World and help us eliminate the Demon King?"
As long as Muzan Kibutsuji died, as the source of Demons, all Demons created by him would vanish into thin air.
"Although I'd really like to help you, the difficulty of going to another world is immense."
Konohamaru frowned and said, "It requires consuming some rule items dropped by lords, and they are extremely expensive. Even if you did get such an item, ordinary players wouldn't be willing to take it out to help others."
Hearing this answer,
Yashiki Kagaya's eyes were full of disappointment. Eliminating Muzan Kibutsuji was indeed not that easy.
"Mr. Yaozai, from what you're saying, that Demon King shares the same bloodline as you."
Konohamaru suddenly asked, "But including you, your entire clan wants to kill him. Have you never thought of becoming a Demon like Muzan Kibutsuji, not only gaining eternal life but also being free from illness?"
Although it was innocent childish talk,
Such a question still caused Yashiki Kagaya's expression to change slightly, and even Gyomei Himejima shed tears.
It was a truly cutting remark.
"I apologize, I spoke out of turn."
Konohamaru quickly waved his hands, full of apology.
Normally,
He, like Naruto, loved to play pranks everywhere to gain recognition, and also dreamed of becoming Hokage, wanting to be the strongest person everyone looked up to.
But recently, the increasingly tense atmosphere between East and West Konoha had caused him to appear more like an adult.
Just like the question he asked,
Even though they shared the same bloodline, Uncle Asuma had turned against his grandfather, almost becoming enemies.
So, upon suddenly hearing Yashiki Kagaya's story, he couldn't help but ask that question.
After all,
If one side were to back down, with the bond of blood, things shouldn't be like they are now, right?
"Because Demons eat humans."
Yashiki Kagaya saw the confusion in the young Ninja's eyes and didn't blame him. His gaze remained as gentle as water. He said, "If Demons could survive without eating humans, then perhaps, as you said, becoming a Demon would be a very good choice."
"But Demons need to eat humans."
Humans and man-eating Demons, this was an irreconcilable contradiction.
Konohamaru asked, "If possible, could the death row inmates be given to the Demons as their food?"
"No."
Yashiki Kagaya still shook his head and said, "This is like a bursting river; the breach must be firmly plugged, not a single step can be retreated."
"If we give death row inmates to man-eating Demons now, what if more and more man-eating Demons appear?"
"Then hand over criminals with lighter offenses?"
"And then those who are useless to the country?"
"Finally, perhaps even the old, weak, women, and children won't be protected!"
His words were resolute.
Regarding the goal of eliminating the Demon King, even with the appearance of the Reincarnation Game and new ways to resolve the curse, he had never backed down.
"Is that so?"
The still very young Konohamaru showed a thoughtful expression.
It was strange.
He always felt that his grandfather, who had now become the new Hokage, was like Muzan Kibutsuji, who had become the Demon King.
To solidify his position, he took advantage of a situation,
Driving the Hyuga Clan, who had failed in a battle, to the furthest corner of the village, causing all Ninja Clans to isolate them.
He knew this was wrong, but when he tried to reason with his grandfather, he would often be shut down with one sentence.
"Only this way can the village's stability be maintained."
But now,
Konohamaru seemed to have gotten a new answer from his friend from the Otherworld.
"A Ninja Village was originally built to protect the most important people, a place established together, and bonds cannot be replaced by blood and malice."
"If the village cannot be stable, or even disappears, without isolating comrades and fighting among ourselves..."
"Then let such a village disappear!"
