In a blink of an eye, three months had passed.
The Sea of War.
On a deserted island, Sarutobi Biwako and Sarutobi Ayase stood ten meters apart, their eyes locked in a standoff. Katō Dan stood not far from them, awkwardly watching them, unsure of what to do.
"I'll say it again," Biwako said, suppressing her anger. "Get rid of the child in your belly, and you'll still be my daughter-in-law. Otherwise..."
"No." Sarutobi Ayase shook her head, gently stroking her slightly protruding belly. "I'm going to have this child. And then, in front of Kenshi... heh heh... I'm going to eat him."
"What!!!"
Biwako and Katō Dan's eyes widened in disbelief. They stared at Sarutobi Ayase, wondering if they had heard wrong.
But they hadn't.
Cold!
Instantly, an unprecedented chill swept through Biwako and Katō Dan's bodies and minds.
Shiver, shiver... They couldn't help but tremble.
Watching Sarutobi Ayase gently stroking her belly, with a loving smile, saying that she would eat the unborn child in her belly, they felt as if they were in the depths of hell in broad daylight. Their bodies were cold, and their eyes trembled.
"Ay... Ayase!!!"
Biwako's lips trembled as she looked at her daughter-in-law in horror. She couldn't believe that her daughter-in-law's reason for refusing to abort the child was this!!!
"Kenshi... what the hell did that bastard do to Ayase to make her like this?"
No, she couldn't let Ayase give birth to the babyin her belly. Otherwise, Ayase would never be able to turn back and would become a monster who only knew how to eat people.
"Ayase, even if you don't think about yourself, think about Tenjū. Do you think Tenjū would want you to give birth to the baby in your belly?"
Sarutobi Biwako brought up her eldest son, Tenjū. Her intention was to use her daughter-in-law's love for her son to make Ayase change her mind and abort the child in her belly.
However, she had overlooked a saying, "The deeper the love, the deeper the hate."
Extreme love can breed extreme hate.
Facing her mother-in-law's mention of her husband, Sarutobi Ayase only trembled slightly. Her expression remained unwavering from beginning to end.
"I believe Tenjū will understand me!"
Even if he doesn't understand, I won't change my decision.
Sarutobi Ayase thought to herself.
From the moment she was whipped by Kenshi, she had already died. She was no longer worthy of being her husband's wife.
When she was whipped and humiliated by Kenshi in front of her husband so many times, and her husband still loved her as much as ever, still willing to sacrifice his life for her safety,
Sarutobi Ayase knew that she was no longer worthy of receiving such pure love from her husband.
At that moment, she had already died.
Now, she was just the embodiment of hatred, existing only to seek revenge on Kenshi.
She would repay the humiliation Kenshi had inflicted on her husband a hundredfold, a thousandfold.
Originally, she didn't have that chance.
Kenshi was very strong. It was impossible to capture him alive. The most powerful revenge would be to kill him.
But now, things were different.
She had the blood of that devil, Kenshi, in her body.
She would make Kenshi taste the pain of seeing his son eaten bit by bit in front of him.
Heh heh... that would be wonderful.
"Crazy! You're crazy!"
Looking at the slight curve of her daughter-in-law's lips, Sarutobi Biwako kept shaking her head in trembling. She knew that her daughter-in-law's heart was dead. Now, she was just a body existing only to seek revenge on Kenshi. She had long lost her sense of humanity.
"Since you're unwilling, then I'll do it myself."
Biwako took a deep breath, her eyes flashed, and she hardened her heart. With a Body Flicker, she rushed towards Sarutobi Ayase. However, Ayase was no longer the same as before.
When she was tortured by Kenshi before, under the intense emotional stimulation, her spirit, or rather, her soul strength, had increased a level, causing her Chakra control to improve significantly.
Clang!
Biwako's palm struck a circular ink shield, as if it had struck a hard steel shield, making her palm numb.
"Whoosh!"
Sarutobi Ayase performed a Body Flicker Technique and jumped into the air. The ink shield followed her, flying into the air and transforming into an ink bird, catching her body.
"This is... Super Beast Imitation Painting?"
Biwako looked at her daughter-in-law in the air with a look of surprise.
The black steel shield just now was condensed from the ink of Super Beast Imitation Painting, but... how come it was as hard as steel?
The error-free version is available on 69shu.com! 6=9+shu_com is the first release of this novel.
And... she hadn't seen her daughter-in-law take out a scroll or use a brush from beginning to end. Instead, she directly condensed the ink shield with her Chakra.
This was completely different from the Super Beast Imitation Painting she knew.
How did her daughter-in-law do it?
Katō Dan was also very surprised. He knew about this secret technique, Super Beast Imitation Painting, but he had never heard of anyone being able to directly condense an ink shield or an ink bird with Chakra.
It was clear that Ayase-senpai had made improvements to the Super Beast Imitation Painting.
From the fact that the condensed shield could block Biwako-sama's Sealing Palm Strike, it could be seen that the ink shield's defense was very strong.
This also meant that the senbon and various sharp objects condensed from ink were also very hard and sharp.
A jutsu that combines attack, defense, flight, perception, and reconnaissance.
It's a perfect jutsu!
It's comparable to the Third Kazekage's Magnet Release Sand Iron Manipulation.
"What a powerful senpai. It's just..."
Looking at Biwako-sama, who was still preparing to attack, Katō Dan felt a bit of a headache. In the past few days, he had also roughly guessed what had happened from the conversation between the two. He couldn't intervene in the rest.
But he couldn't tolerate companions attacking each other.
Whoosh!
Katō Dan stood between Ayase and Biwako in the air and said to Biwako, "Biwako-sama, companions shouldn't attack each other. If there's anything, let's talk about it."
Hearing this, Biwako glared at Katō Dan and shouted, "Talk about it? Why don't you go talk to my daughter-in-law and tell her to get rid of the baby in her belly!"
"This..." Katō Dan was speechless for a moment. He turned to Ayase-senpai, who was standing on the ink bird in the air with a blank expression, wanting to say something... but he didn't know what to say.
To be honest, he actually agreed with having the child. No matter what, the child in senpai's belly was innocent. He couldn't decide who his parents were.
But they shouldn't casually erase the existence of a life.
Especially... senpai's devilish idea. Just thinking about it made Katō Dan tremble.
No matter what, he wouldn't let Ayase-senpai hurt the child in her belly.
"I believe Hokage-sama would have the same thoughts."
Katō Dan thought to himself.
"It's all your fault. Otherwise, the child in Ayase's belly would have been aborted long ago."
Biwako glared at Katō Dan's back with hatred. She was still very upset. A ball of anger had nowhere to go.
Five days ago, Biwako suddenly noticed that her daughter-in-law's belly didn't seem like she was just getting fat. She finally realized that her daughter-in-law's occasional vomiting in the past three months wasn't a psychological aftereffect of being tortured by Kenshi or anything. It was morning sickness.
