Chapter 269 Great Demon (×) New Spiritual Beast (√)
"Yukino-san, catch the ball!"
Hayasaka Ai's voice sounded, and at the same time, Yukinoshita Yukino, who was standing behind her, also reacted quickly, holding the ball down with all her weight, and then pushed it up hard. (っ◔◡◔)っ
At the same time, Hayasaka Ai was ready to jump up on the spot and hit the volleyball back with a powerful smash.
Chika Fujiwara looked a little panicked. "Little Loneliness, please!"
"Hey! I...me?!"
Although Xiao Lonely wanted to escape, her partner's trust made her stretch out her arms to resist Hayasaka Ai's smash.
Carrying a heavy guitar on his back every day, and practicing guitar for six hours a day, apart from other things, Xiao Lonely's physical strength and arm strength are still pretty good.
But what she faced was the almighty maid Hayasaka Ai! A valet trained by the Shinomiya family from childhood. The ball was still not blocked and landed heavily on the sand.
Hiratsuka Shizu whistled dissatisfied.
"Damn...the score is 10:7. Team Uchiha won the first group. Now the second group begins."
"Sister Yukino is so awesome! So is Sister Hayasaka!" As the atmosphere team member, Shirasaki Hana kept waving and cheering.
Rumi Tsurumi looked at the sea with confusion, "Brother Ling just left and asked whether he should go or bring Brother Natsume and the others back. Should everything be fine?"
But at this time, the second group of matches, Shinomiya Kaguya and Shirogane Kei VS Chitanda Airi and Amakusa Shino, has officially begun!
And Ai Hayasaka, who had just finished the match, pouted her lips unhappily even though she won.
"Yukino-san, we worked so hard to win, but Ling-san ran off to swim after watching it halfway."
Yukinoshita Yukino was sitting on the beach chair. She was not as outrageous as Hayasaka Ai. A very decisive game had already made her tired and wanted to rest.
"Don't worry about him, he will be back later."
...
"Natsume-dono, human power has its limits after all... Even your grandmother, Natsume Reiko, cannot escape the fate of death. It's really sad."
"That, Mr. Blue Whale."
"Call me Jingming. My name is recorded in the friend's account."
In order not to attract the attention of the group of people on the beach, Natsume jumped off the back of the blue whale and floated on the water.
"Mr. Jingming, after I get ashore, I will return the name on my friend's account to you. And...Although human beings only have a short lifespan of a hundred years, this is the reason why human beings can flourish."
"oh?"
Natsume smiled, "But I would like to ask Mr. Jingming to give this friend of mine a ride to the shallow water."
Just as Natsume was talking, the blue whale under the water turned its huge eyes and looked in the direction of the beach.
"Meow-this... such a big fish?"
Yanyun-chan lay on Uchiha Ling's shoulder and swam over with her master.
Uchiha Ling also looked at the blue whale in surprise.
"It's so big, and this kind of demonic energy...is at the level of a great demon. Natsume, do you recognize it?"
"Brother Ling, Mr. Jingming doesn't mean any harm, and he also saved classmate Bai Yin. When I get back, I will return the name on my friend's account to him."
Three magatama appeared in Uchiha Ling's pupils, and Jingming also looked at Natsume with some surprise after seeing the person coming.
"Natsume-dono, you actually know this human being?"
Before Natsume could speak, Uchiha Ling climbed onto the whale's back and sat down. He glanced at Shirogane Mikaru, who was just in a coma and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Jingming, right? Judging from your tone, you know me?"
"I know. After all, I just saw you showing off your power in this sea area a few days ago. All the monsters nearby fled."
The last few days? That was probably when he was seen by the other party when he was attacking Isato in order to solve the storm.
That monster Isobi is not the Three-Tails in the comics, but the prototype of Isobi in the myth of Sakura Country's monsters. He is also at the level of a great demon, and he is not as easy to talk to as Jing Ming.
The commander-in-chief of the Nura-gumi at that time also took people out to sea to prepare for the crusade against Iso, but was solved in advance by Uchiha Ling.
That's right, at that time, the range of the Kirin that Uchiha Ling used with the help of the storm was too large. It is estimated that the monsters in the nearby sea saw the scene of him attracting thunder to kill Iso.
However... Jingming's tone was very calm. He said that all the monsters in the nearby sea had fled, but he stayed.
What does this mean? There are only two possibilities. The first is that he can't walk away even if he wants to! The second thing is that there is no need for him to leave! That is to say, he was not afraid of Uchiha Ling who used Kirin at that time.
No wonder the demonic energy is stronger than Isato... Interesting.
"Jingming, I just heard you seem to be saying that human lifespan is very sad, right?"
"Of course I said it, and I don't think I was wrong. A mere hundred years of life is just the time it takes for me to fall asleep a few times."
Uchiha Ling chuckled. "But do you know how developed the human beings you are talking about are now?"
"I have never been ashore, but in the past hundred years, your fishing boats have become larger visibly to the naked eye..."
Jingming subconsciously believed that all human ships going out to sea were fishing ships. The aircraft carrier he saw some time ago was actually much bigger than him. Human creativity is really terrifying.
"It is precisely because humans are not an immortal species that we have been able to develop to the current technological era in thousands of years. Because humans have never set their goal on individual strength, but on overall technological progress."
Uchiha Ling patted the whale's head beneath him.
"Jingming, do you want to go to the human world with me? I will spend a hundred years as a human, and then I can talk about my sadness. After all, a hundred years is just a period of time in your mouth."
"Human strongman, you want to take me as a Shikigami? Although you know Mr. Natsume, I, Jingming, have no intention of submitting to humans!"
"No, no, you misunderstood. It's not the kind of semi-slavery master-servant Shikigami, but I give you freedom, and you just help me with some small things... a summoned beast."
Yanyunjiang, who was lying on Uchiha Ling's shoulder, turned her head away.
The scumbag master is going to start fooling around... It's a pity to waste such a big fish, and I don't know how it tastes.
"It's no problem for you, a big demon, to transform into a human form. I can be responsible for solving your identity problem and let you integrate into this human society. And you only need to sign a contract with me to summon you, and the rest is up to you."
"....."
It's not easy to find a big demon who is not experienced in the world but powerful. This is a talent. Unlike Nura and the others who have been in human society for a long time, this kind of thug must be kept by others.
At that time, unless you don't remember the favor, you still have to help me work...
Jingming fell into silence, as if thinking.
Shirogane Yuxing, who was frightened and fainted, suddenly trembled all over, "Huh? Where am I..."
Shirogane Yuxing, who hadn't reacted yet, fainted again after being glared at by the Sharingan.
"Natsume, let's take Shirogane back first. Mr. Jingming, you wait here for me, I'll be back soon."
