This is the 24th chapter for my fanfic!
Read on to find out what happens in this new chapter.
DISCLAIMER: I don't own Inuyasha, this is just my own OC.
The demon samurai warriors were already inside the sacred demon temple of the hell demon tribe. All the one-hundred warriors began heading towards the zaisu gallery to commit their assault on Empress Jigo Yuu and her beloved tribe of hell demons. As was Naraku's order, they would dethrone and destroy the empress demoness and force them all into servitude under him. In doing so, the tribe would be used as bait to dethrone and destroy Lady Tsukiyame and Sesshomaru.
As they walked down the lit hallway to the zaisu gallery, a familiar powerful demonic aura could be sensed. The powerful arch enemy they intend to conquer. It was indeed Sesshomaru. Their beloved lord's arch enemy, who had gone undercover to stop their wicked plan. Not expecting him or his other arch enemy Lady Tsukiyame to also be aware of their plan. All the men were surprised to see the young lord demon standing before them, at the door to the zaisu gallery. His powerful heirloom fang the Tenseiga was already drawn, and he was ready to deal with the lowly half vermin's army.
"Lord Sesshomaru," the leading demon warrior said wickedly, smirking, "So, you've decided to resign yourself to death, have you not? You sure are making it easy for us to destroy you. As I have stated before, the western lands shall belong to Lord Naraku."
"Hn," Sesshomaru said coldly, "I think NOT."
With all the demon samurai warriors now having their weapons drawn, they were ready to take out the young lord demon. Charging at each other, he moves swiftly and swings his Tenseiga. It had pulsated with a white energetic light manifesting around the blade. White healing energy was now hurling towards the demon warriors. They all were about to be struck down and killed. A pure bright blue spiritual barrier surrounded the army, protecting them from being slain as was expected. It then dissipates and disappears around the men. The leading demon warrior charges at Sesshomaru and their weapons clashed. The two fought in the hallway, near the zaisu gallery.
"Your plan to conquer my lands and kingdom ends here." Sesshomaru stated coldly.
"Hn," the leading demon warrior stated evilly, "We will just see about that, now will we Lord Sesshomaru! You will relinquish your power and rulership over the western lands and your people will surrender and serve under Lord Naraku, whether you like it or not."
"I shall send you all back to your graves," he said coldly, "Along with that worthless lowly half-breed you call a lord."
"Just hurry up and die, now!" he exclaimed.
He then backs away briefly and moves swiftly, swinging his sword forward to try and strike down the young lord demon. Sesshomaru shifted out of the way with superb speed, dodging the leading demon warrior's blow. Now, he was suspended up towards the ceiling before the half vermin's resurrected Axe Tiger army, ready to destroy them all. That is when he moves forward and swings his Tenseiga downward, sending out white healing energy that was now hurling towards the army. A pure bright blue spiritual barrier surrounds the men once again, protecting them via Naraku's use of his sacred holy scepter weapon.
'How is it that Naraku,' Sesshomaru thought, 'Is able to protect his army with a spiritual barrier, while also battling Lady Tsukiyame and the others? He must be using demon puppets to do his dirty work.'
Most likely, Naraku was hiding somewhere nearby the Sorufuruna Kogane no Hana Temple, in the netherworld to remain safe. All while resorting to the use of demon puppetry as well as even manipulating his own army to take out his enemies. Multi-tasking had always been the half vermin's specialty, especially when it came to defeating his arch enemies by any means necessary. Conquering the unworldly realms of the hell demon tribe and baiting them to kill Sesshomaru and Lady Tsukiyame, to also conquer both the western lands and the eastern lands was of higher priority to him. A crossover throne is still his truest desire.
After landing back on the floor gracefully, the leading demon warrior starts charging at him again. The two faced off and fought each other with their weapons clashing. He was still determined to take out Sesshomaru and send the powerful demon lord to his death. Of course, that would never happen. He will see to it that the Axe Tiger army see their demise and return to their graves, there in the netherworld.
At the leading demon warrior's command, the other demon samurai warriors began circling them to overpower Sesshomaru. All the men were closing in on the two, ready to deliver the blows to kill him in unison. It looked as though he would not be able to avoid the army's attacks in time. The men performed their unison attacks, backing away as the attacks had hurled towards the young lord demon to strike him down. The blasts from their unison attacks had dissipated before the demon warriors for them to find Sesshomaru was still alive and completely unaffected by their failed attempt to kill him. Now, he was suspended up towards the ceiling with his heirloom fang the Tenseiga glowing white. His Tenseiga looked to had protected him from being struck down. He had already dodged their unison attacks, leaping up in the air and towards the ceiling. Staring down at his enemy's army coldly, he swiftly swoops down and strikes them all with one swing of his sword. White healing energy was now hurling towards the men, about to strike them all down. The white healing energy had dissipated, and the army had been protected by a pure bright blue spiritual barrier. They had not been slain. Sesshomaru lands back on the floor gracefully as he stood before the demon samurai warriors. The ruins from their unison attacks could be seen from behind him. That is when the leading demon warrior charges angrily at him. Both their weapons clashed.
The leading demon warrior still could not fathom as to why and how Sesshomaru is unable to be defeated. It was almost as if he were truly invincible and could not be killed for some unknown reason. It was the same thing that occurred, when they fought both the young lord demon and the young lady half demoness to claim the western lands and eastern lands as Naraku's.
Still, they fought and fought with their blades continuing to clash with the demon warrior attempting to try and take him out, swinging and lunging at the powerful demon lord with his sword. The young lord demon dodges the attack briskly and smoothly and with one swing of his Tenseiga, tries to strike down the demon warrior. A pure bright blue spiritual barrier had surrounded the leading demon warrior to protect him, before dissipating. The two then started being circled by the other demon samurai warriors again as they fought. They were all closing in on them to overpower Sesshomaru and try to take him out again.
"It is over, now," the leading demon warrior seethed, "We will not fail to kill you this time. I can assure you of that."
"I would not count on that," Sesshomaru stated nonchalantly and coldly, "Your attempts to force me in servitude under that half vermin and take me out are futile."
"You shall die." he hissed.
Noticing the other demon samurai warriors circling them both again, the young lord demon leapt up over the warriors, ready to deliver the blow. He had swung his Tenseiga forward, sending out white healing energy that was hurling towards them. A pure bright blue spiritual barrier surrounded the army to protect them once again. Landing back on the floor gracefully and standing before Naraku's army, something needed to be done soon to defeat them and his enemy. Surely, there had to be another way to destroy the Axe Tiger army of demon samurai warriors.
"Perhaps you aren't yet aware, lord," the leading demon warrior stated wickedly, smirking, "As long as we serve under Lord Naraku, we shall forever remain invincible. You will never be able to destroy us!"
"Hn." Sesshomaru said coldly. He had briskly dodged the golden white energy that was coming towards them.
Suddenly, all the one-hundred demon samurai warriors were shoved back by a golden white light. All the men were engulfed by the light and forcefully arranged in three straight lines. Two lines had thirty-three demon warriors each, while one line had thirty-four demon warriors. The demon warriors were unable to move as they have been rendered paralyzed by the attack. They were all pushed outside the sacred demon temple through the main door without destroying the temple.
"Let's see how invincible you are," a voice stated coldly, "When I send you all back to your graves!"
As the demon warriors were forced outside, the beautiful great and powerful daiyoukai Empress Jigo Yuu appears in the doorway with two very tall hell demon warriors beside her. Two powerful hell demon men that had joined to fight the demon warriors alongside their beloved tribe leader and empress. Her sword was already drawn as it glowed a golden white color and was pointed straight at the demon warriors. The hell empress demoness forced the men out of her sacred demon temple with such perfect skill and without any swordsmanship movements. She was ready to deal with her newest enemy Naraku's army accordingly and destroy them.
Sesshomaru had already landed back on the floor gracefully. The empress demoness turned to face the young lord demon and informs him about some important news regarding Naraku.
"Lord Sesshomaru," Empress Jigo Yuu informed, "Naraku is most likely hiding somewhere nearby to remain safe and is using demon puppets in attempt to bait my tribe members to dethrone and destroy us all. Aim to find his hidden location to stop his use of the demon puppets and destroy him. My two warriors and I will deal with his army."
Sesshomaru simply nodded and had gone back inside the zaisu gallery to battle Naraku. The empress demoness and the two hell demon warriors had gone outside to fight the resurrected Axe Tiger army. Empress Jigo Yuu, her daughter Miss Jigo Kiki, and Lady Tsukiyame already defeated Naraku's first demon puppet. Now, there was a second demon puppet of the venomous being materializing inside the zaisu gallery, ready to attack.
…..
Meanwhile, Empress Jigo Yuu and her two warriors battled with their newest enemy's resurrected army. All one-hundred demon samurai warriors were floating on dark miasma clouds with their lord's enemy and her two warriors being suspended in the air before them. They all had their weapons drawn. It was almost pitch-black outside, in the unworldly realm with smoky and toxic miasma fumes still entering the hallways of the sacred demon temple. None of them would be able to withstand those fumes for very long. Not even someone as powerful as the empress demoness or her allies.
Each team of demon warriors were divided with a leading warrior. There were total of thirty-three for both her warriors, and thirty-four for her to defeat. The men began swooping briskly and aggressively towards the three, ready to destroy them, and force all their people into servitude under Naraku. Since baiting the hell demon tribe to dethrone Lady Tsukiyame and Sesshomaru hadn't gone as planned, Empress Jigo Yuu would be the first for them to attempt to dethrone.
'This unworldly hell creature MUST die!' one leading demon warrior thought.
"You, unworldly bitch," he said coldly, "You will be the first to perish if you refuse to relinquish your rulership over the netherworld and underworld and serve under Lord Naraku. It will be eternal damnation for you all!"
"Silence, fool," Empress Jigo Yuu stated coldly and clearly, "That miserable lowly half-breed you call a lord shall never have my lands and empire. You all will pay for invading my territory to attack my people."
All the men began charging at them at the command of the three leading demon warriors. They started circling the empress demoness and her two hell demon warriors in attempt to overpower and take them out. Their weapons had clashed. Each man was ready to perform their own unison attacks as they closed in on Empress Jigo Yuu, the two hell demon warriors, and the leading demon warriors as they fought. They remained on the floating dark miasma clouds as they closed in. That is when a golden white light, a white light, and a blood red light pushes back all the demon samurai warriors away from them, in unison. She and her two warriors had their powerful blades pointed straight at the half vermin's demon warriors. Their attacks started hurling towards the men, about to strike them down and kill them. The blasts dissipated and subsided. The army had been protected by Naraku's pure bright blue spiritual barrier and were not slain. They had been unaffected by Empress Jigo Yuu's attack and her two warriors' attacks.
More dark toxic miasma clouds formed under the army to keep them from falling to their deaths at the command of their venomous leader and lord Naraku. They all began splitting up in teams again to attack the hell empress demoness and the two hell demon warriors. In unison, the men performed their own attacks. The unison attacks were hurled towards Empress Jigo Yuu and the two hell demon men that fought alongside her. They briskly dodged the unison attacks with the empress demoness flying fiercely above the sacred demon temple and army with her sword glowing golden white, and the other two gliding opposite from where she was. The blasts from the attacks dissipated and subsided with the army being seen floating on the miasma clouds. Empress Jigo Yuu and the two warriors were now all suspended in the toxic air, before the army. She was ready to put an end to them once and for all.
The leading demon warriors started charging at them as their weapons clashed. While the three fought with them, the other men started closing in on them from above. They all began swooping down to attack. More unison attacks started hurling towards Empress Jigo Yuu and her two warriors to kill them. The empress demoness briskly and fiercely dodged the blows, along with her two warriors dodging the blows as well. That is when her movements suddenly became a blur as the men could not make out where she was headed to. The powerful hell demon empress disappeared before the demon samurai warriors rapidly and hid her demonic aura from them.
Now, she was coming towards them from above and behind. When the leading demon warriors commanded their men to attack, it was too late.
"Now, men," one leading demon warrior commanded, "Take that unworldly hell demon wench out, now! She and her kind must surrender to Lord Naraku and serve under him."
"Now," another leading demon warrior commanded angrily, "Put a stop to this wicked unworldly hell bitch, now!"
"Hn." Empress Jigo Yuu said coldly.
All the demon samurai warriors performed their unison attacks to destroy her and the two hell demon warriors. The three all dodged the blows that were being hurled towards them. Empress Jigo Yuu briskly swoops down towards the men, swinging her sword with such perfect skill. A wave of white energy and gold energy appeared as it formed into a horizontal twister, and started hurling towards the army, ready to strike them all down. As soon as the pure bright blue spiritual barrier was erected around the demon warriors, her attack had broken through it. Naraku's army was about to be slain. While most of them managed to dodge the blows from the blast of the empress demoness' attack in time, some demon warriors were not lucky at all. Twenty men ended up being struck down and were instantly destroyed with their bodies returning to their skeletal forms. They were nothing more than the living dead as they had been resurrected by the half vermin.
Then, Empress Jigo Yuu notices bright lavender jewels shining as they left the twenty slain demon samurai warriors' corpses and began disappearing in the dark smoky and toxic miasma filled air. She briefly looked behind her as the brightly glowing jewels had disappeared in the vicinity. It was the Sacred Shikon Jewel shards used by her newest enemy Naraku to sustain the lives of the now dead Axe Tiger demon warriors. Wondering if her and her tribe's new arch enemy was remaining hidden nearby the Sorufuruna Kogane no Hana Temple, while the battle took place was unknown. His demonic aura was unable to be detected or sensed. He also could not be seen as the dark miasma clouds were so thick. There had to be a way to track him down and find where he was hiding.
'I wonder if Naraku could be over there somewhere?' Empress Jigo Yuu thought. She then faced the army again and continued fighting them.
"Move, now," Naraku's dark voice commanded angrily, "Destroy the hell demon empress! She and her tribe shall suffer the consequences of her refusal to relinquish her power and rulership and serve under me. THAT BITCH must perish, now!"
After hearing their lord's command, the demon samurai warriors wasted no time. The army was determined and ready to take out the hell demon tribe's beloved leader and empress. In doing so, they would be able to move forward with forcing her people as well as Lady Tsukiyame's and Sesshomaru's people into servitude to Naraku. Despite losing some of their fellow men in battle with the powerful empress demoness, the Axe Tiger army will NOT stop, until she and their lord's other arch enemies are all dead and his crossover kingdom is established.
Empress Jigo Yuu and her two hell demon warriors had already split up to battle with the eighty demon samurai warriors that were remaining. Each two hell demon warriors now had twenty-seven men to defeat with the hell empress demoness having twenty-six men to defeat.
The leading demon warriors of each team charged at the empress demoness and her two warriors again. Their weapons had clashed as they fought. The three fought and fought with each team leader. The other demon samurai warriors started making their way towards them again, leaping above with their weapons raised in unison, to strike her and the other two hell demon warriors down and kill them. That is when the leading demon warriors attempt to push the three powerful hell demon empress and warriors up towards the men, who were now swooping down to attack. It was a miserably failed attempt. The three leading demon warriors and many other men had been overpowered as they were suddenly pushed back by Empress Jigo Yuu's powerful wind-like and fire-like demonic wave. Screams were heard throughout the unworldly realm as the men seethed in pain from the burns they had received from the hot windy waves. They slowly rose back to their feet again. The empress demoness and her two warriors noticed the unison attacks being hurled towards them.
As the hell demon empress and the other two hell demon warriors briskly and smoothly dodge the blows from the unison attacks. The demonic energy had dissipated. The three men charged at them angrily on the floating miasma clouds. Both desperation and determination tugged at their hearts as they were set on going through with Naraku's order to destroy them. One leading demon warrior fought with Empress Jigo Yuu as he was agitated by the fact that she had not been slain. All their weapons continued to clash. The men were suddenly caught off guard as the three had disappeared before them rapidly and hid their demonic auras, before reappearing behind them. By the time the three leading demon warriors could attack, it was too late. In unison, the powerful hell demon empress and her two warriors moved forward and struck down the three leading demon samurai warriors, slaying them ruthlessly from behind. A lavender light from the embedded Sacred Shikon Jewel shards began glowing as the men were brought back to life by their beloved lord. They rose to their feet on the floating dark miasma clouds, ready to take the three on again. Charging at each other again, their weapons clashed.
"Fucking bitch," one leading demon warrior seethed, "You will either surrender and serve under Lord Naraku or perish!"
"My empire and rulership will never be relinquished and given away to that lowly miserable half-breed lord of yours." Empress Jigo Yuu stated coldly and clearly.
"Ha, that's funny bitch," he taunted, "That is very funny coming from someone who has a half-breed brat of their own."
"You misunderstand me, fool," she said and warned in a cold scathing tone, "Your lord is the half-breed here. And I can assure you that many humans and demons alike, including myself, think he is worthless. You will NOT compare my daughter to the likes of that pest."
"Shut the fuck up and die, now!"
The two continued battling with each other and her two warriors battled with the other two leading demon warriors. They fought and fought as the empress demoness must be defeated soon to move forward with Naraku's plan. It was a tough battle. Not only is she the beloved leader and empress of the hell demon tribe, the netherworld, and the underworld; she is also a formidable daiyoukai who will not be easy for the army to defeat at all. Still, Empress Jigo Yuu would never allow herself or her people to be killed and conquered by the likes of the half vermin or his army.
More demon samurai warriors proceeded to circle them at the command of the leading demon warriors. All the men on the floating dark miasma clouds were continuing to close in on the empress demoness and the other hell demon warriors around and from behind, ready to strike them down. She and her two warriors notice the other demon samurai warriors closing in on them. The three briskly and smoothly dodge the blows from the unison attacks. With the two hell demon warriors dodging the unison attacks in opposite directions. Empress Jigo Yuu suddenly hid her demonic aura and disappears rapidly before the army, causing the men to see a blur as they could not make out where she was headed to. That is when the hell empress demoness started briskly swooping down on the army, swinging her sword downward, and sending out a wave of white energy and gold energy.
"Fiery Auriferous Backlash Twister!" Empress Jigo Yuu cried out her attack.
The wave of white energy and gold energy had formed into a horizontal twister and had hurled towards the army. Many demon samurai warriors had managed to dodge the attack and barely avoided being struck down. However, the other demon warriors weren't that lucky. The three leading demon warriors and thirty-seven more of their men were struck down and ruthlessly killed, in the blast. Their bodies began returning to their skeletal forms as the corpses fell. The empress demoness' attack had already dissipated. A lavender light from the embedded Sacred Shikon Jewel shards glowed and shined brightly. The sacred jewel shards left the dead corpses of the forty slain demon samurai warriors and had disappeared in the vicinity of the sacred demon temple.
The two hell demon men warriors joined their beloved empress and leader's side again. All three still had their weapons drawn and were ready to kill every last one of them. Empress Jigo Yuu remained suspended in the air with her two warriors beside her. The remaining forty Axe Tiger resurrected demon samurai warriors' eyes met with the empress demoness' as she glared at them coldly and in a deadly manner.
They had no other choice but to flee or risk the possibility of their whole army being wiped out by the empress demoness. Naraku's army was now down to only forty demon samurai warriors, instead of one hundred as sixty of their men had been slain, in the battle with her. Another dark miasma cloud began forming around the men as they started quickly leaving the Sorufuruna Kogane no Hana Temple. The resurrected Axe Tiger army of her enemy had already managed to get away. They escaped from Empress Jigo Yuu and her two warriors, starting to dematerialize before them. The battle with his army was over.
"They've escaped." Empress Jigo Yuu said. She began sheathing her sword away as the battle was over.
"Yeah." one hell demon man warrior agreed.
"This is still not over." the other hell demon man warrior commented.
…..
The battle between Naraku and his other arch enemies continues, at the sacred demon temple, inside the zaisu gallery. Sesshomaru, Lady Tsukiyame, and Miss Jigo Kiki had just slain a second demon puppet of Naraku. Now, there was another demon puppet starting to materialize on the stage before the three, ready to attack and kill them. More dark fiery flames could be seen blowing outside the window behind the stage where the half vermin's demon puppet stood, in the netherworld.
He leaps off the stage and swings his powerful spiritual weapon to open a pathway to the eternal hell fires. The sacred holy scepter glowed a pure bright blue. The three rivals briskly dodged the pure bright blue spiritual rays with the hell demon tribe members also quickly dodging the rays to avoid being struck and damned to hell. None of the hell demon tribe members were present to be damned. So, the pathway immediately started to close-up. The spiritual rays had already dissipated and dissolved.
The battle between the venomous villain Naraku and the powerful rivals continues as the three must defeat and stop his acquired crossover rule. Both Lady Tsukiyame and Sesshomaru would defeat and stop him from conquering their lands. Of course, Empress Jigo Yuu and her daughter Miss Jigo Kiki and a few of their fellow tribe members would without a doubt, stop him from conquering their lands and empire.
All three landed back on the floor gracefully with their weapons still drawn, standing beside each other, ready to destroy Naraku's puppet. The demon puppet of the half vermin began charging at the three rivals to take them out with one swing of his sacred holy scepter.
Dodging his attack again, some tentacles were now being shot out at them. Lady Tsukiyame and Miss Jigo Kiki both leapt up and obliterated all the tentacles away that were coming at them with their powerful swords. Sesshomaru had shifted as he tried to strike him. The lowly half-breed missed him and was unable to strike the powerful demon lord down. The young lord demon's green poisonous energy whip was now drawn. He slashes all the tentacles away. His Tenseiga had already been sheathed away. The three landed back on the floor gracefully and faced their arch enemy.
"You fools shall PERISH," Naraku's demon puppet said darkly, "And your fellow tribes will serve under me crossover kingdom."
"I don't think so, disgusting vermin," Jigo Kiki said and commanded, "You will leave our territory right now!"
"Hn," Lady Tsukiyame stated coldly, "That demon puppet master of yours is the one that shall see his demise."
"I'll be damned if you fools stop me from claiming what's rightfully mine." he snarled darkly.
The demon puppet of Naraku started charging at them again and was ready to swing his scepter to send Lady Tsukiyame and Miss Jigo Kiki to hell for eternity. More tentacles were then shot out at all three of them. Both the young lady half demoness and the young half hell demoness briskly zoomed out of the way to avoid the pure bright blue spiritual rays, coming at them. Sesshomaru swiftly dodges the spiritual rays and slashes away all the tentacles that were coming at him.
As Naraku was about to strike them down with his scepter, Lady Tsukiyame swiftly knocks the weapon away from him, hacking off his hand. The sacred holy scepter stopped glowing as it flew away from them and on the floor. Then, she briskly moves forward and swings her Kurai ToksusUsagi sword to hack the demon puppet into pieces with such perfect skill. The young lady half demoness lands back on the floor gracefully, standing before Sesshomaru and Miss Jigo Kiki with her back facing them.
That is when the sacred holy scepter started pulsating. Naraku had called his weapon telepathically and telekinetically as it came off the floor and was returning to him.
"Come back to me," Naraku's dark voice commanded darkly, "The sacred holy scepter shall be in my possession once again."
A fourth demon puppet of him had already materialized before Lady Tsukiyame, Sesshomaru, and Miss Jigo Kiki and got hold of his scepter. After the third demon puppet was destroyed, another one had appeared again. He was ready to take them all on again and kill them. The epic battle in the netherworld between Naraku and the powerful rivals was far from over. Still, they must find another way to discover the half vermin's hidden location and stop his use of the demon puppets soon, so that he can be defeated and destroyed.
