Bloodline Limit - Chapter 509
“Because I really enjoy breaking the so-called future, the so-called destiny,” Ryoha thought of his unfortunate situation in his previous life, a hint of determination flashing in his eyes. Yes, he couldn’t allow his fate and the lives of those around him to be uncontrollable. He especially couldn’t allow any danger to befall the people close to him.
So, he really wanted Shion to show him and the people around him what their deaths would be like. If he knew, Ryoha could take care of those individuals or things that might cause fatal outcomes for those around him. This was his most important purpose for coming here and the reason why he was most interested in Shion. Bulma, Tsunade, and the other women knew this as well.
So, they all felt warm inside. Having a man who cared so much about them and the people around them was a good thing. Not to mention that Ryoha, being proactive and taking precautions like this, was even better. However, it seemed that fate and death were actually tied to strength. Ryoha’s strength had already reached a point where he could reverse the situation.
“Can a person’s death really be changed?” Shion, for the first time, discovered that she couldn’t predict even one person’s death. Perhaps this man really had the power to change fate.
Suddenly, Shion, who had been a bit willful, cold, and even domineering, felt a glimmer of hope for her future. If her predicted deaths could be changed, perhaps she wouldn’t be despised and rejected, wouldn’t feel so lonely and isolated, and wouldn’t make everyone afraid of her. At least, these people in front of her had no need to fear her.
But Shion couldn’t be certain. It’s not that she didn’t believe in Ryoha’s strength; on the contrary, she knew that Ryoha was already the strongest person in the ninja world. However, seeing is believing.
Especially because Shion had her inner demons for many years, having the courage to confront them was already quite impressive. Ultimately, she was just a girl with special powers. Apart from her ability to predict and seal demons, she was only slightly stronger than an average woman. So, she set an expected goal for herself, to test it with the demon, Moryo.
Since she couldn’t predict Ryoha’s or those related to him deaths, she couldn’t know if he could really change a person’s death. So, she decided to test it with Moryo. Moryo was a demon that almost destroyed the world. Even if she sacrificed her life, at most, she could only seal Moryo for a while. No one had ever killed Moryo.
If Ryoha could kill Moryo, then it meant that Ryoha really had the power to change fate. Everything related to death and threats would seem extremely fragile in front of his strength.
Some things had to be seen with one’s own eyes to be completely believed. That’s what Shion thought, so she planned to take a gamble. She really wanted to live a carefree life like an ordinary girl from an ordinary family. She didn’t want everyone to avoid her, to look at her with fearful, ghostly eyes. She also wanted to prove something: that her ability to predict could also be wrong sometimes, or even be broken.
She wanted to tell everyone that the people predicted to die were fated to have that outcome. Their fate was equal to aging, illness, and death. Because they didn’t have the power to control their lives.
So, they could only follow the natural law of aging, illness, and death, and those who had the power, like Ryoha and Tsunade, had the ability to change their own fate and life. Therefore, those who died after her prediction were not dying because of her; they were destined to have that outcome. Because they didn’t possess the power to control their lives.
Thus, she could tell everyone that those who died after her prediction were originally fated to have that outcome, and Ryoha’s actions would help her break free from the role of a shrine maiden, escape from being discriminated against, and, most importantly, struggle against and seal Moryo. Because once Ryoha killed Moryo, she would finally be free from this role, no longer face discrimination, and finally live a fulfilling life.
So Shion expressed her thoughts, surprising Ryoha a bit. It seemed that people were truly making progress. Unless they willingly fell into decadence, Shion, who constantly evaded in the original story, unexpectedly found hope within herself and faced her inner demons voluntarily.
“Do you want to lose the ability to predict death?” Ryoha stared at Shion with his Rinnegan, seemingly able to see into her soul and understand her inner thoughts.
“You can make me lose it?” A glint of happiness flashed in Shion’s eyes. Wasn’t she discriminated against because of this ability? Her mother sacrificed herself because of this ability. Honestly, she really didn’t want to be a shrine maiden. If she didn’t have this ability and Moryo was killed by the person in front of her, then it would mean that the shackles and fate oppressing her and her mother were broken, right?
“Do you know? Seeing you now is like seeing myself in the past. Unable to face, unable to resist, only passively endure. The opportunity is worth waiting for. My opportunity was meeting Bulma, and your opportunity is meeting me.”
Ryoha spoke of his unlucky days in his previous life when he couldn’t resist the misfortune given by the heavens. He could only silently endure it until an opportunity appeared. His opportunity was meeting Bulma, and Shion’s opportunity was meeting him.
Ryoha’s words reminded him of his unfortunate days in his previous life when he couldn’t resist the misfortune given by the heavens. He could only silently endure it until an opportunity appeared. His opportunity was meeting Bulma, and Shion’s opportunity was meeting him.
“If I hadn’t met Bulma, I might be like you, or even worse than you. Because if I hadn’t met Bulma, I would have died in the impact of the Nine-Tails. In the past, Bulma saved me, and your situation is similar to what I faced back then. So today, I’ll save you. In any case, I must kill Moryo.
Otherwise, my life in the Land of Snow would be disrupted, and it wouldn’t align with my goals. It’s a rare opportunity to do something good. I’ll help you change your destiny. Follow me.”
Ryoha directly took Bulma, Anko, and Shion with him using the Body Flicker Jutsu and arrived at the location of Yomi, where he had found it previously in the Land of Demons. At this moment, due to the pressure from the joint efforts of the ninja from the Five Great Countries, the Moryo inside Yomi had already revealed its true form. Countless sharp claws that looked like tentacles were terrifying, and many ninjutsu shattered these claws, but they immediately reappeared in even greater numbers.
“Do you see it? This is the fate of people whose strength isn’t strong enough. As long as there’s a chance, an opportunity, and you can seize it, then you can control your own life without any problems,” Ryoha said. He realized that he hadn’t used the Wind, Fire, Lightning, Water, and Earth Release techniques for a long time. He wanted to see if he had regressed at all.
