Red sand dust

Miss Saya has seen the spiritual world of many people, but this is the first time she has encountered someone like Daimaru.

Daimaru, who was sitting cross-legged with his eyes closed, was not far away, surrounded by a circle of purple-black linear shadows, as if he was forming a cocoon, wrapping him in it.

As if aware of Miss Saya's invasion, the purple-black linear shadow separated and turned into an evil snake with a ferocious horn on its head, sticking out its tongue and hissing a warning sound.

"Daimaru, what are you..."

Miss Saya has a family background, and her understanding of Yin Escape is much better than that of Daimaru, a wild fox Zen who accidentally hit it.

The puppet imitation technique did take effect, but Daimaru in the spiritual world did not remain silent.

"I didn't expect that we would meet under such circumstances! Originally, I didn't want to show this to others!"

Daimaru, who had his eyes closed, opened them, and the sound of a chuckle came.

"What happened to you?"

"I encountered a powerful mental invasion, and I won! But then a series of accidents happened..."

Daimaru didn't know much about genjutsu, spirituality, escape, and the like. When he occasionally encountered problems, he could only use analogies to things that had happened or were about to happen in the ninja world.

Similar to Daimaru's experience, Orochimaru wanted to devour Uchiha Sasuke but was counterattacked; Idu's clone was also killed by Daimaru forcefully.

Everything about Orochimaru was cheaper than Uchiha Sasuke. Because he has the Sharingan and is good at illusions, Uchiha Sasuke is not afraid of erosion.

But Daimaru didn't have such conditions, and he overly underestimated the impact of Ido's disillusionment. It wasn't until he became more and more sensitive to certain negative wills that he realized something was wrong and started to solve it.

"Direct spiritual contact is very dangerous. You actually let fragments of the enemy's will remain in your body?"

Miss Saya looked like an idiot, which made Daimaru feel a little embarrassed.

"I was negligent at first, but now I don't know what to do, so I can only clean it up passively..."

Daimaru's hands shook slightly, and the purple-black shadow cocoon that wrapped himself turned into countless star puppet threads, extending in all directions, and then absorbed a large piece of colorful clouds scattered around, and finally turned into a giant ball protecting the will of the body again. cocoon.

"It goes over and over again, slowly purifying and eliminating hidden dangers!"

If it weren't for Daimaru's special mental will and his ability to simulate a mental puppet thread with some of Idu's characteristics, he might have turned into a mental suture monster like Orochimaru through passive fusion.

In fact, there was no such danger at the beginning. The Ido clone that had been scattered ended up being slowly obliterated by Daimaru's massive spiritual energy.

However, the erosion of the cursed chakra in Uchiha Sasuke's body brought about some bad changes, making the already dormant Ido fragments show signs of activity again.

But fortunately, the problem is not serious. Daiwan has a countermeasure, which is to completely eliminate the hidden danger, which will take a long time.

"Are you stupid?"

Miss Saya said unceremoniously,

"You are still a puppet master, so you don't know how to find a place to temporarily store your spiritual energy and then clean it up slowly? Look at you like this now, competing with yourself, it's so ugly!"

"Temporary storage, puppet master?"

Daimaru was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized,

"Is this what your puppet imitation technique looks like?"

Miss Saya's puppet is not only a prop for performing the secret technique, but also a gate to prevent the backlash from spreading to herself after the secret technique is cracked.

"Ninjutsu that plays with people's hearts. Who would be stupid enough to use their own will to fight? Once the spell fails, who can bear the backlash..."

"I don't understand..."

Daimaru looked confused.

No wonder the eccentric mystical ninjas like to wear a vest. Didn't Idu also create an illusion of a clone and capsize inside Daimaru?

But Ido was unlucky, and the main body still hidden in Kurama Yakumo's body was discovered and killed.

Like Daimaru, who attacks with the Star Puppet Line in a big way. Once he encounters a powerful ninja and directly counters it, the end will be disastrous.

"It's not impossible for you to put some stupid effort into sorting it out slowly, but in this chaotic spiritual world, it may be difficult to encounter genjutsu ninjas or even guys who are good at escape..."

If there is a flaw in the spirit, opportunities will naturally be seen and exploited.

With Orochimaru's strength, after performing the Fuzo Reincarnation, he would be knocked down by Uchiha Itachi's genjutsu, but it was really embarrassing to capsize in front of Uchiha Sasuke's genjutsu.

It can only be said that fortunately Daimaru was cautious before and did not swallow up some messed up energy when he was unclear about the situation, otherwise the problem might be more difficult.

"But apart from this stupid method, I don't know how to do anything else..."

Daimaru didn't have any family secrets, so he didn't know any way to quickly solve the current problem.

"I... can help you, but..."

Miss Saya smiled proudly, stretched out her palm and waved it in front of Daimaru,

"It's not cheap!"

"You want money again?"

Daimaru felt a little distressed. It was obvious that he could solve the problem by himself, but it would take a lot of time. It would be quick to find someone to help, but it would be too expensive.

"It's up to you whether you want to or not! However, I can remind you that I can see that there is something wrong with you, and so can others. If you are suspected of being bewitched by spiritual magic and are arrested and tortured, you are not like me. It’s easier to talk now!”

Miss Saya smiled proudly, not afraid of the other party's disobedience, and waited for Daimaru to submit.

"this……"

After hesitating for a long time, Daimaru asked tentatively,

"How much?"

"Wouldn't it be nice to be so honest earlier? Why do you need so much nonsense..."

…

I don't know how long it took, but Daimaru looked at the mental energy ball wrapped in the threads of the Star Puppet in front of him with a complicated expression.

"Fortunately, you have a way to shield yourself from mental energy fluctuations! What do you call this 'Star Puppet Thread'? It's a good secret technique. It's a little worse than my puppet imitation technique, but it's not bad either..."

"How can I compare with Miss Saya!"

Daimaru had a bitter look on his face, if he continued to let Miss Saya take action, he would never be able to repay the debt he owed.

After manipulating the star puppet string to place the mental energy ball into the Muladhara Chakra, which is farthest from the brain, Daimaru couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief at the feeling of mental relief.

Without the interference of messy mental energy, Daimaru felt that his thinking was much clearer.

Next, it is necessary to take time to digest it slowly and fully master it again.

Now, it can only be used on a limited basis! Although it does not affect the refining of chakra and can still perform ninjutsu normally, it is divided after all and is not so handy.

"Let's go, it's time to go out, it feels like it's been a long time!"

It would be nice if there was a skilled medical ninja. Although Miss Saya was proficient in spiritual magic, her technique was too rough. Even if she was allowed to do it, it took a lot of time to control the somewhat chaotic spiritual power in Daimaru's body. Calm down and then isolate as much as possible.

If it lasts longer, Miss Saya might not be able to hold on to her chakra.

"I heard you bragging about your strong spiritual power before, but I didn't expect it to be so simple! It's a pity that you have so much talent..."

"It's not bad now, right?"

Daimaru said unconvinced.

After all, Daimaru wouldn't be too embarrassed for the time traveler to be able to be like this.

"If you don't have great ambitions, what's the point of showing off your power among genin?"

The two of them left this remote corner while chatting.

When I arrived, there was no one around. When I left, it was already bright and there were many pedestrians nearby.

The sight of Daimaru, who looked tired and gloomy, walking side by side with Miss Saya, who was sweating on her forehead and her face was red from exertion due to excessive chakra consumption, immediately attracted the attention of many people.

Miss Saya, who has an eccentric personality and doesn't interact with others, is naturally a celebrity; Daimaru, who has recently become famous, is also recognized by many people.

"Hey, the two of them..."

"It's Daimaru and Saya, no way..."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, I didn't expect this kind of relationship..."

"Shh... keep your voice down, don't talk nonsense, and don't look! Be careful of getting beaten..."

…

what happened?

Daimaru frowned. The passers-by around him were whispering and pointing at the two of them. Was it too offensive?

"Something seems wrong? It feels like we're getting too much attention!"

Daimaru covered his mouth with his hands and asked softly.

Such an intimate act caused a commotion.

"What are you doing with this waste? There's nothing good to say anyway!"

Except for some insincere compliments, Miss Saya, who is accustomed to hearing all kinds of cynicism, has long since developed the ability to turn a blind eye and turn a deaf ear.

Fortunately, we were in the northern fortress, and it was during wartime. If she were in Sand Hidden Village, Miss Saya would have used the puppet imitation technique to curse these gossips to the point of ecstasy.

"No, it's too abnormal!"

Daimaru frowned and asked,

"Is there anything special about the place you invited me to come to?"

"have no idea!"

Miss Saya said nonchalantly,

"I just heard that many people meet here! It's very remote and quiet. It's a good place to talk about important things."

"That's true, but..."

Daimaru paused and vaguely remembered something.

"Who are the people meeting here?"

"How would I know?"

How could Miss Saya, who had no friends, know this?

Anyway, as long as it is a good place where you can be quiet without being disturbed by others, the Northern Fortress is now in a mess, and there are not many such secluded places.

"I see, I always have a bad feeling!"

…

Back in the lounge, Yame and Qian were already asleep. Daimaru found a corner to close his eyes and rest, recovering the consumed chakra and physical strength.

At noon, after lunch and taking a walk after dinner, that inexplicable look came again.

"I didn't expect ninjas to be so gossipy. They would gossip about the smallest things!"

Daimaru, who felt unhappy, returned to the lounge and saw Qian staring at him with complicated eyes and hesitated to speak.

Yemu asked with a narrow and strange smile:

"Daimaru, I heard that you had a tryst with Miss Saya, is it true?"

"What's the matter?"

Daimaru waved his hand,

"We're not in that kind of relationship!"

"But it has already spread that you and Miss Saya were dating in the Holy Land, and they came out after a long time?"

"A holy place for dating? Could it be..."

Daimaru's expression suddenly changed!

"It's the former abandoned warehouse. Because there are no people there, many young ninjas who are about to go to war go there and take the opportunity to express their feelings. Usually they don't dare to reveal their feelings secretly, but when facing a battle, they are afraid of dying on the front line, so they are very courageous...

He's very famous among young ninjas, didn't you know? "

"How could I care about these inexplicable things..."

Daimaru said distractedly,

"I'm going, but it's definitely not a date or anything, I'm just going to pay back the money..."

"But many people said they saw you go in for a long time and then come out. Do you need to go to that kind of place to pay the money? You stayed in there for so long, it's so suspicious..."

"Don't say such nonsense, it will be terrible if Temari hears it!"

"It seems Temari already knows!"

Qian said quietly,

"We heard about it from her, and she asked us with a smile if we knew..."
