Ziyuan couldn't help but show an excited expression.
This not only means that she no longer needs to sacrifice herself to seal away the demons, but also that the Demon Kingdom no longer needs to worry about the chaos caused by the demons.
Simply put, Kitazawa solved the problem of the demons for them once and for all.
"Of course it's true."
Kitazawa smiled and said.
"Thank you!"
Shion quickly said, "You will be a permanent guest of our Demon Kingdom. Whatever you want, the Demon Kingdom can satisfy you!"
"Your Highness, you are too kind. I have only completed my task."
Kitazawa didn't react much to her promise.
After all, given his current strength and status, the Land of Demons can't offer him anything.
In his view, the demons were the most valuable thing in the land of demons.
"If you really want to repay this kindness, you can sign an alliance with Konoha Village."
Kitazawa thought for a moment and then said.
The Land of Demons is, after all, a country, and it generates quite a few tasks throughout the year.
Previously, it was a neutral country, and missions were distributed equally among the various ninja villages.
After signing the alliance, you can prioritize entrusting ninjas from Konoha Village.
In addition, the location of the Land of Demons is also good, with the Land of Earth to the east and the Land of Wind to the south.
In the future, if there is another Ninja World War, we can borrow passage from the Land of Demons.
"no problem!"
Ziyuan immediately agreed.
Footcape, standing to the side, didn't say anything more.
Although signing an alliance with Konoha Village would mean the Land of Demons would no longer be neutral, it would all be worth it.
Because the Land of Demons has dealt with the demons, priestesses will no longer need to sacrifice themselves.
"Teacher Kitazawa!"
Naruto ran up to them and asked, "Can we learn Wood Release? Especially that dragon from earlier, it was so cool!"
Uchiha Sasuke curled his lip upon hearing this.
That's utterly idiotic.
That's Wood Release, not Wind Release or Fire Release. Is it that easy to learn?
Konoha Village has been established for so long, and the only recorded Wood Release ninjas are Hashirama Senju and Kitazawa.
Sasuke Uchiha didn't know Yamato, so he wasn't included in the calculation.
"You may not be able to learn it now, but you might be able to in the future."
Kitazawa smiled and said.
"Lord Kitazawa."
Shion said, "You've all worked hard. Please come with me back to the Land of Demons to participate in the celebration."
"What celebration?"
Naruto asked curiously.
"Because you helped our Demon Kingdom defeat the demons, I plan to establish a festival."
Ziyuan thought for a moment and asked, "How about calling him Kitazawa Setsune?"
"As expected of Kitazawa-sensei!"
Naruto Uzumaki said longingly, "I want to have my own holiday in the future, and I'll call it Youth Day!"
Uchiha Sasuke and Hyuga Neji exchanged a glance, both seeing the helplessness in each other's eyes.
"Kitazawa Setsu is a bit strange."
Kitazawa paused for a moment, then suggested, "How about calling it the Summer Festival?"
It's July now, which is summer.
"Well."
Ziyuan nodded and said.
"Alright, let's go back after we finish the celebration."
Kitazawa wasn't in a hurry, and it would take time for his Wood Release technique to gain fame.
Even if Huang Tu and Maki travel as fast as they can, it will still take them a day to get back to their respective ninja villages.
"Great!"
Naruto Uzumaki said excitedly.
The celebration was not only lively, but also offered plenty of food and entertainment.
For someone his age, that's very attractive.
Moreover, this celebration was specially organized for them, so it offers a different experience.
"You can eat and drink for free at the celebration."
Ziyuan said with a smile.
She had been quite worried because of the responsibility that the priestess had to fulfill to seal away the evil spirits.
Now that the demon has been completely dealt with, she has returned to her true nature.
Ultimately, she was just an eight or nine-year-old girl.
Kitazawa glanced at her and thought of a question.
Could we get her into the gifted program?
Although Shion looks like an ordinary little girl, she is actually a genius with great power.
However, her power was sealed.
In the original work, Miroku gave her a bell.
The purpose of this bell is to suppress the shrine maiden power within her.
Based on her performance in the original work, Shion is almost another Yakumo Kurama, with astonishing potential.
However, her identity is quite special. In the Land of Demons, a priestess is equivalent to a daimyo.
However, you can find an opportunity to ask her.
Kitazawa and the others returned to the Land of Demons.
As news of the defeat of the demon spread, the Land of Demons was filled with jubilation.
At Shion's command, the Land of Demons busied itself with preparations for the celebration.
Kitazawa and the others couldn't stay for more than two days, so the celebration was scheduled to begin at 9 a.m. the day after tomorrow.
Setting up a celebration in just one and a half days is quite tight.
However, Kitazawa and the others were now free.
The next day arrived.
Konoha Village Hokage Building.
The first to receive the message were not Onoki or Rasa, but Tsunade.
After sealing the demon, Kitazawa sent Itachi Uchiha back to Konoha.
"Lord Hokage."
Itachi Uchiha took out a scroll and said, "This is the mission report of Lord Kitazawa leading the team to seal the demon."
As a ninja, he always followed the rules in everything he did.
If it were Kitazawa, he wouldn't bother writing a mission report; he could just verbally describe it to Tsunade.
Tsunade opened the scroll and began to read it.
Itachi Uchiha wrote it in great detail.
Although she didn't witness it firsthand, she could probably recreate the battle between Kitazawa and the demon in her mind.
"Kitazawa did a great job."
After reading it, Tsunade said with a big smile.
Itachi Uchiha noticed her expression and thought to himself that she had indeed known all along that Kitazawa had mastered Wood Release.
She couldn't have remained so calm if she hadn't known beforehand.
When will he be back?
Tsunade closed the scroll and asked.
"Lord Kitazawa said he'll be back after attending the festival in the Land of Demons tomorrow."
"Itachi Uchiha replied."
"Ah."
Tsunade nodded and said, "Have the Anbu inform them about this."
"Yes, Hokage-sama."
Itachi Uchiha was startled.
When the entire Hidden Leaf Village knows that Kitazawa has mastered Wood Release, the consequences are self-evident.
But it's a good thing no matter how you look at it.
The reappearance of Wood Release will be extremely encouraging for the residents and ninjas of Konoha.
As for the Uchiha clan, the disloyalty of some clan members will be completely suppressed.
After all, this is Wood Release.
Madara Uchiha, the strongest member of the Uchiha clan in history, lost to Hashirama Senju's Wood Release.
They didn't dare to challenge Wood Release.
Uchiha Itachi bowed slightly and left the Hokage's office.
He easily found his way to the secret service office.
"It's Itachi."
Sarutobi Asuma saw him and greeted him with a smile, "Long time no see."
With Kitazawa currently away on a mission, he will be temporarily in charge of the Anbu.
"Asuma-senpai."
Itachi Uchiha stepped forward and said.
"Is there something you need, Hokage-sama?"
Sarutobi Asuma asked the question.
"The Hokage has ordered that this matter be communicated to the entire village."
Itachi Uchiha handed him the scroll.
Sarutobi Asuma opened the scroll and glanced at it, then froze in shock.
What did he see?
Kitazawa defeated the demon Mouryou from the Land of Demons using Wood Release?
Sarutobi Asuma subconsciously looked up at Uchiha Itachi.
"This is real."
