Chapter 354: Onimusha Corps
Tsuchigumo is not a fool. He rushed in even though he knew there was a big problem, so he had already applied for support through special means.
If it were other forces, without solid evidence, they would not get any support at all. After all, sending troops to support is not only time-consuming but also costly.
But the Moroboshi family is different. They just ask for help first and then worry about other things later.
As a veteran ninja of the Moroboshi family, Tsuchigumo's authority is naturally not low. In addition, they are not facing ordinary enemies and the situation is more critical, so it is the Onimushi Corps of the Moroboshi family that applies for support.
Ghost warriors are relatively common ghosts in Japan, because there are too many warriors who died in battle. As long as they are unwilling to give in, they may turn into ghost warriors, wearing tattered armor, full of arrows, holding a bloody knife, and chopping anyone they see.
However, it is very rare to see multiple Oni warriors gathered together, so it is a very incredible thing to form a group of Oni warriors.
The main reason why the Moroboshi family was able to form a group of Onimusha corps was because they were not short of money and they needed to motivate more newcomers to fight for their lives. Not only were they treated well during their lifetime, but they also received special funeral subsidies.
Especially those who died heroically in battle, not only can they be buried in the cemetery specially opened by the Moroboshi family, but they will also be buried with a set of weapons and armor. On weekdays, there will be people sweeping the grounds and offering sacrifices to them, and new warriors will be organized to pay their respects regularly.
It can be said that the Moroboshi family gave the samurai all the dignity, fame and everything they wanted.
Therefore, the samurai of the Moroboshi family had no fear of dying in battle, because their relatives would be taken care of and their names would be left after their death. They valued the latter more, so being able to die in the most tragic way on a fierce battlefield became the most anticipated ending of life for all the samurai of the Moroboshi family, because they felt that this was very romantic. They thought that life should be as short and brilliant as fireworks, and they sneered at dying of old age on a hospital bed.
This is also the reason why the Tachi Team does not care even though they know that taking the Demon Blood Pill will shorten their lifespan, because as long as they die in battle before taking it, it will be fine.
Because they are too loyal and too persistent, the chance of Ghost Warriors appearing in the Moroboshi family cemetery is terribly high, just like refreshing Pokémon in the game.
The demon warriors of the Moroboshi family, wearing armor buried with the dead, had no resentment and their only obsession was to fight for the Moroboshi family again, because they felt that their military achievements in their lifetime were not enough and their deaths were not tragic enough.
After knowing this, Yan Xu was speechless for a long time, then he waved his hand and directly formed the Ghost Warrior Corps so that they could continue to serve the Moroboshi family after their death.
Moreover, the military achievements made by the ghost warriors can be passed on to their descendants. If there are no descendants, an orphan will be found to inherit his name. Anyway, the treatment is very good, and the last thing the Moroboshi family lacks is money and resources.
After this series of operations, not only the samurai of the Moroboshi family, but even the samurai of other forces were envious when they knew about it. If it weren't for the support of Samurai Glory, they really wanted to move overnight.
However, they cannot leave, but their descendants can, so the samurai who have recently defected to the Moroboshi family are talking endlessly and are very fanatical. They are eager to sacrifice their lives for the Moroboshi family. The more tragic the death, the better. It would be best if they fought bloody battles with swords stabbed all over their bodies, and finally died with the enemy's head in one hand and a broken sword in the other, looking at the flag of the Moroboshi family with infinite loyalty in their eyes.
Yan Xu began to doubt whether the Japanese world was polluted by something strange. The degree of distortion made his scalp tingle. He began to worry about how to deal with these fanatical warriors after unifying Japan.
Now he began to understand the Emperor. When Terra was just unified, he destroyed the Thunder Warriors who had made great contributions. It was not because he wanted to get rid of them, but because there was no room for them to survive in the new era.
It was too early to think about this at the moment. At least the Oni Warriors were still very useful. It only took a short time to tear apart the Hidden God Barrier that the Fox Dancer had spent a lot of time to build. Then, with just one encounter, these professional killing machines slaughtered all the girl spirits. These warriors had no concept of civilians, whether they were alive or dead, and there was no such thing as innocence. Those standing on the opposite side were all enemies. It was that simple.
However, the horrific killing brought extremely high efficiency. The fox dancer who just wanted to fight back ran the fastest, but the ghost warriors were not entities. They were like ghost soldiers passing through, and were not affected by the terrain and environment at all. What was more terrifying was that even the sunlight was only weakened and could not stop the advance of the ghost warrior army.
The fox dancer, who was chased to a corner, finally escaped, but she paid a heavy price for it.
Tsuchigumo picked up the broken tail and prepared to take it back. Izumi hesitated for a moment and said.
"The core of the Nine-Tailed Fox Transformation Technique lies in the fox tail. This is the source of her power and her status. Losing a tail means permanently losing a part of her power and self. Unless she can find it back, she will always be incomplete."
"That means she will definitely come back to look for this tail." Tsuchigumo said as he looked at the broken tail curled up in his hand.
"Yes, no matter how much the Fox Dancer's strength increases, a part of it will be preserved in this tail. As long as she wants to transform into the Nine-Tailed Fox, she must get this tail back." Izumi said, recalling her family's description of the Nine-Tailed Fox Transformation Technique.
"Very good, you have made a contribution this time, so the merit will be doubled." Tsuchigumo nodded and said.
After saying goodbye to the three, Tsuchigumo returned to Amano Castle to report the matter, and Oboro and the others also found the missing Demon Hunter.
The other party had very bad luck. She took a shortcut and accidentally entered the hidden place built by the fox dancer, and was caught. Because the ninja was so good at hiding things, she was hung naked on the tree like a ginseng fruit.
Fortunately, the fox dancer was a female, and the Nine-tailed Demon Transformation Technique only made her grow a tail instead of helping her stand up, so she was not messed up like a bucket of latex paint had been spilled.
However, Fox Dancer still underestimated the ninjas, especially the female ninjas. Who said that you can't hide things without clothes?
So when Long and the others arrived, the other person had already escaped and was tying his hair and putting on his clothes.
After resting for a while, several people did not dare to stay here any longer. Who knows if the fox dancer will turn back halfway or attract other enemies, so they hurried down the mountain.
After returning to Amano Castle on the donkey cart, although they almost lost their lives, they still made contributions by chance. Because their merits were doubled, the three of them were able to exchange them for the good things they wanted.
The course of events has been reported to Yan Xu. After knowing the role played by the Onimusha Corps, he was very satisfied and had new ideas.
Ask someone to bring the first flag of the Moroboshi family. Because of the relationship between the world, this originally ordinary flag also has magical properties and can become a good carrier.
