Chapter 215: Chapter 213 The only time she might have fought was during the Chunin Exams

The only time she might have fought was during the Chunin Exams. Not to mention the first written test, in the second round, she was carried entirely by Ino and Choji. She disappeared for the whole match and only popped out of Ino’s shadow at the end. In the third round, she surrendered right at the start."

"Speaking of which, Kano, you did that to wait for Naruto and Sasuke, right?"

"Yeah. If I became a Chunin, who would accompany them for the exam? I would never do something like abandoning my teammates to rank up secretly. I have much more loyalty than my brother."

"I feel like you’re doing it on purpose so that the assassins who come for you will be matched with an ’equal’ opponent because of your Genin status. Then they’ll find out they weren’t matched with an opponent, but with a terrifying powerhouse.

Jokes aside, back to business. Besides forming the logistics unit, Kano, I want to ask you something very important."

"What is it?"

"Do you have a way to kill Moryo directly?"

Kano fell into deep thought, seriously considering her methods for dealing with an otherworldly creature like Moryo.

The Reaper Death Seal wouldn’t work; that’s just a sealing technique. It would be bad if Orochimaru tricked the Shinigami and released it again later. Since Moryo can survive on just its soul, if it could be killed, it would have been killed long ago instead of being sealed.

Other than that, there weren’t many Ninjutsu that could affect a soul. Only Requiem could cause damage, but that song probably couldn’t kill Moryo.

Shikamaru had heard it so many times and hadn’t died yet. Moryo’s soul strength was more than a little bit higher than Shikamaru’s; at most, it would deal damage but not kill it.

Then there was the Summoning Jutsu. She didn’t know if the Dragon Clan had any dragons that could deal with Moryo, but summoning with her own Chakra was too exhausting. Summoning even a big sister required eating soldier pills or activating the Creation Rebirth Seal.

soldier pills tasted terrible, and the feeling of having empty Chakra was very uncomfortable. This option was a last resort.

As for the Creation Rebirth Seal, Kano touched her lower abdomen. Better not; she’d avoid using it if possible.

Another way was to find someone else to handle it. Kano could think of another person specialized in soul attacks: Nagato, or rather, Pain’s Human Path.

"I have an idea, but it might not necessarily succeed."

"Then please give it a try, prioritizing your own safety. It’s just an attempt. Our original plan is to send a team to escort the Priestess of the Land of Demons to seal Moryo. If you succeed, that’s best, but if not, it doesn’t matter."

"Mm, I’ll go give it a try."

"For the escort team, let’s tentatively set Neji, Lee, Sakura, and Karin. If Naruto can return soon, we’ll include him too."

"Can we not let Naruto participate in the escort mission?"

"And the reason?"

"I’m afraid he’ll encounter danger."

"Could your reason be any more perfunctory? Did you give him the necklace?"

Kano naturally understood that Tsunade was referring to the ’whoever wears it dies’ necklace that Tsunade had gifted.

"No, I wouldn’t give him such an unlucky thing. I just have a bad feeling, that’s all."

There was actually something inside that necklace. If Naruto ever went berserk and needed to use the Nine-Tailed power, it would be bad if that little thing popped out and tripped him up.

"He hasn’t even returned and you’re already protecting him like this? He won’t be able to grow that way. Fine, don’t make that face. If he returns, I won’t let him go on the escort mission, alright? I’ll send him to the front lines to find you.

In fact, as long as I mention you’re at the front, he’ll definitely rush there at top speed."

"Hahaha, true."

Kano felt it was good that this happened before Naruto returned. She hoped he would come back after this incident was over. She wondered what he was doing right now... Meanwhile, with Naruto.

"Big brother Ashiho, just teach me that Shadow Mirror Body Transfer Jutsu."

"I’ve told you, that’s a secret technique of our Land of Demons and cannot be shared with outsiders."

"Please, I’m begging you! I’ll just learn it and won’t tell anyone else. I’ll do anything you want, as long as you’re willing to teach me."

Naruto was pestering a man. However, this man was carrying a bow and arrow and was in a great hurry, not wanting to be delayed by Naruto. To stop him from pestering further, he finally relented.

"Fine. If you protect the Priestess well this time, I will teach you this secret technique."

Hearing that Ashiho had finally agreed to his request, Naruto’s half-month of hard work finally saw a glimmer of hope.

"No problem! Leave it to me! I definitely won’t let a single hair on Lady Shion’s head be harmed!"
