Chapter 77: Ch.77 Temptation of Immortality
In the never-ending drizzle, a figure dashed through the rain at breakneck speed.
Even from a distance, one could sense the panic and desperation emanating from this fleeing figure.
That figure was none other than the once confident 'Lower Moon One,' Kibutsuji Muzan, who had entered the Hidden Rain Village not long ago!
At this moment, his face was charred black, one of his eyes was nothing but a bloody hollow, and his entire left arm was missing. It seemed as if his once unparalleled regenerative abilities as a demon had failed him.
However, compared to the shock in his heart, the state of his battered body was insignificant!
"Everything was wrong! Completely wrong!"
He fled with all his might, just to escape the town shrouded in the rain behind him.
For this mission, the four Lower Moon demons had spread out across the shinobi world under the protection of their Lamp Shadows, devouring living beings and gathering chakra while gathering information on the Akatsuki organization.
In the process, they encountered shinobi from Hidden Grass Village, the Hidden Waterfall Village, and even the Hidden Cloud Village, one of the Five Great Shinobi Villages.
Among these shinobi were genin, chunin, and even top-tier jonin. But even the jonin, supposedly the pinnacle of the shinobi world, were easily devoured by the Lower Moon demons with little trouble.
In their assessment, the shinobi world was not weak, but it was far from the treacherous land they had expected.
