Chapter 17
( With Hachishaku/Kankandara/Syren)
"How lovely it is to see you in such good health! What has it been? 90 years? Since I last saw your face?" Syren asked looking at her old friend along with Kankandara who folded all 6 of her arms under her breasts and sighed at the man eating mermaid.
"Syren it's been 113 years since the three of us last been apart. As you know I've lived in the dark forbidden forests for the past 115 years. Have you forgotten to count already?" Kankandara asked the mermaid
"It's been that long Kankandara-Chan? I remember it all too well when Hachi-Chan was sealed away by those monks. Pretty heart wrenching! But I am happy to see you finally return Hachi-Chan~" Syren says facing the 8 foot woman who smiled at her fellow friend and urban legend.
Syren is a large Man eating mermaid Yokai. At least bigger than Hachishakusama And she is classified as a Daiyokai. She is feared upon the seas and oceans. She is the ocean dweller and loves to lure Sailors, fishermen and possibly pirates to their deaths in the sea with her hypnotic singing voice. Voice sweet as honey and very seductive... all who falls prey to her singing is eaten by her. It is also known that she sinks ships as well and devours anyone on board once that ship is sinking to the watery depths of her domain.
Becoming a Watery graveyard for the unfortunate souls who have been consumed by Syren.
It's unknown what Syren's backstory was like. She wasn't born human but rather as a Mermaid Yokai that has a taste for human flesh.
113 years later she made friends with both Hachishakusama and Kankandara.
Kankandara/Aoi Who was once a human And Ex Priestess Only wronged by the very village and her own family that she swore to protect from a giant snake. She bested the snake with her spiritual powers The snake still lived and the village seeing no other choice or option for victory but to approach the snake and offered Lady Aoi to the snake for a sacrifice in return of the village's safety. Shocked betrayed and confused Lady Aoi was, as the Villagers cut off her arms watching the snake swallow her alive, It was at this very moment she discovered the village and her Household had Planned this fearing her power more than anything. Emotions ran through her and these emotions were Anger, shock, Betrayal and sadness lashing out wanting to curse the Villagers she sworn to protect but an idea came to her and she had her own victory... She placed a powerful curse on herself to become and Live as the snake she bested in battle. Several days later with the lower half of the Snake's body she went on a bloody massacre on the village who conspired against her... She murdered Everyone including her own Household, The Villagers pleaded and begged for mercy or to be spared but she ignored their pleas and still slaughtered them like cattle. After the purge was over she took an arm of each who betrayed her mainly her Household family members.. having 6 arms after she had gotten her revenge she disappeared into the deep forests and secluded herself in solitude. Killing anyone unfortunate who would be lost in the said forests.
She likely encountered Hachishakusama 1 year later after being a Daiyokai too. The two became close friends and partners in crime. And both of them would soon meet Syren whom couldn't speak at the time until Kankandara provided her a way to speak human language with her spiritual spells granting Syren the ability speak.
Then there is the big lady herself. Hachishakusama. The 8 feet tall woman. Killer of Children. The bringing of death itself. Born from her mother who is a doctor and secretly a serial killer. Named Retsu Yachiru Unohana. Her father is a monk. Her origins tell that Hachishakusama's mother Retsu. Whom is a doctor and secret murderer was called over to be a midwife while also pregnant with Hachishakusama at the same time. As she finished her task one night while Retsu was on her way home she was attacked by a Demon as it's claw's scratched her developing abdomen that is carrying her unborn child. Out of rage from being attacked Retsu killed the demon with her bare hands since she didn't have her sword with her at the time that she would use to slaughter innocent lives. And being a skilled healer she healed her wound and could only pray that her baby was safe.
However what Retsu did not count on was that the demon's claws were laced with its Yokai essence and when it made contact with her belly the Yokai essence seeped into her developing fetus along with her unborn baby infecting it into a Yokai.
After that. She didn't tell her husband that she was attacked. And so on for the next few months Retsu's belly had gotten abnormally large as if she was carrying triplets or quadruplets. It was hard to tell.
And on the 9th month Retsu had given birth to Hachishaku. Which stunned and surprised her husband along with the midwife who were caught off guard to Retsu give birth to a very very BIG baby. The Baby was literally a splitting image of Retsu.
Speaking of Retsu... Retsu had died. The amount of strain to push out her baby was too much that it actually killed her.
Hachishakusama's father who was a monk saw his infant daughter was flowing with demonic aura and as a monk he had to kill his daughter.. for the loss of his wife but because she is a demon.
But could he?
He wanted to kill his daughter.. but she looked so much like Retsu that he couldn't bring himself to do it.
So... he simply gave her away to an orphanage leaving her on their doorsteps. Since he was unable to raise her. After doing that deed he moved on.
Hachishakusama lived her life in that orphanage bullied for her growing height.
by the time Hachishakusama became 5 years old she was already 6 foot tall and still growing. For the past 5 years of living in that Orphanage Hachishakusama was bullied for her height. The kids would pick on her for being big and tall.
Some even thinks she was hardly human which is true.
Even the Staff at the orphanage found her height strange and unnatural for a child.
Hachishakusama hardly had any friends in her younger days. Hell no one wanted to adopted her because they found her strange.
6 years went by and Hachishakusama became 11 years old still 6 foot tall she's nearly to be 7 foot tall. And again she wasn't adopted and still had no friends in that orphanage
Still bullied for her height.
She was unwanted and isolated.
However she made one friend. And it was a stray puppy. A girl puppy.
A puppy she took in as her only friend. She couldn't bring the puppy in the orphanage knowing it was against rules to bring animals or keep them as pets. So she would make the puppy a make shift shelter to one of her favorite places in the forest near the orphanage. And would come or even sneak out the orphanage to visit her puppy. Bringing it food and water that she stole from the kitchen.
She named the Puppy Shiro's. Shiro was her joy and happiness.
That was until that fateful day, someone found out she had a puppy and has been feeding it the food she stole from the orphanage.
Who ratted her out?
Those kids.
Those kids were envious at the fact she has a puppy. If they couldn't have one then neither could she. So out of spite they not only ratted her out and getting her into trouble with the Orphanage Staff. They blackmailed her to do whatever they said and if she didn't do it they would hurt Shiro. Ordering her to do their chores and other needs. Hachishakusama refused and challenged them that they wouldn't dare.
To show that they were serious. They kicked the poor puppy which frightened Hachishakusama as she ran in urgency to her only friend and pushed the lead kid who was boy away from Shiro.
The lead boy scowled glaring at Hachishakusama who held the puppy in comfort. As suddenly she was struck in the back of the head by a rock that was thrown by other kids. As Hachishaku fell on her knees after she was struck again with another Rock and fell face planted into the ground as Shiro fell out of her slender arms. Dazed and bruised from the attack Hachishaku looked up and reached for Shiro who she heard yelping and crying for her friend to help her. The Lead boy was angry at what Hachishakusama did and decided to do the next thing that would break Hachishakusama's heart.
He grabbed a nearby shovel and told one of his friends to grab the puppy And hold it down as he began to beat the puppy to death as Hachishakusama widened her dark blue eyes that she inherited from her mother. At the scene and cried tears. Seeing her only friend getting killed she pleaded for them to stop but the boy did listen he had a sadistic smile on his face as Shiro's cries of pain filled the sky.
After that. Shiro was dead... and Hachishakusama could only stare in pure horror and silence. As she heard the kids laugh at her and insult her now dead puppy. Hachishakusama cried tears as she lowered her head crying softly.
unknown to the kids and bullies Hachishakusama started glowing red. As she lifted her head and had glowing red demonic eyes. Which terrified the kids and her assailants. Hachishakusama let out a demonic roar in the sky and went on a ballistic rampage on those kids. Killing every last one of those bastards who bullied her. Made her life hell and took away her only friend which broke the camel's back.
The Kids would scream for the adults to save them but were too late. By the time the adults got there, Hachishakusama had already left along with taking Shiro with her. But left all those dead brats behind for the orphanage staff to see.
Hachishakusama cried and mourned for her friend Shiro and buried her in a nice grave. As the 6 foot tall girl found herself covered in the blood of those kids she killed. Feeling her rage flare up again at what those Monsters did to her friend.
It was at this point. Hachishakusama hated children. And hated them with a passion. Not after what they did to her puppy.
Hachishakusama would then visit the orphanage at night after her massacre. She wound enter in the orphanage and set it on fire killing the rest of the kids and the orphanage staff who did her wrong. As she used her newfound demonic powers to lock all the doors and Windows in that orphanage making it impossible for anyone to escape as she watched the whole building set ablaze along with the screams of those inside it being burned alive to a crisp.
Hachishakusama left that night and wasn't seen ever again after that.
Years went by and Hachishakusama had matured into a adult. A very beautiful curvaceous woman with the right curves. Wearing a white dress, sandals, a straw hat and has long ebony colored hair that went pass her shoulders. Looking like a splitting image of Retsu Yachiru Unohana. She was finally 8 feet tall and could no longer grow after that.
She had no name and decided to call herself: Hachishakusama.
After her growth and return Hachishakusama has been killing children. Whether they are boys or girls.
She was dubbed as a Child Serial Killer.
She has killed more than 100 children a year.
Whenever you are liked by Hachishakusama you will die in a couple of days.
There are even Rumors that she eats children.
Parents, grandparents and caretakers alike lose children because of Hachishakusama.
Once they take their sight off their children or young ones. They are gone in a split second by Hachishakusama.
Humans has pleaded to Kami or the monks to do something about this demonic menace.
Four great monks were tasked to stop and defeat Hachishakusama.
The Monk of the West was the first to engage Hachishakusama.
She was killed by Hachishakusama.
The next monk to engage Hachishakusama was the North Monk. He too met his end at Hachishakusama's hands.
The Monk of the South joined the fray and fought Hachishakusama head to head. The fight lasted for 10 WHOLE straight days. The South monk was formidable and the strongest out of his other counterparts.
As the fight lasted for 10 days. It finally came to an end.
Hachishakusama became the winner. As the south monk had his soul ripped out of him by Hachishakusama. He was the first to fall prey to her Soul Absorption. Having his strength and power.
The next few days after her fight with the south monk her demonic powers grew. She was growing stronger.
She even awakened a hidden power within her to cause earthquakes.
She can raise the dead.
Create illusions.
Can mimic and impersonate a child's older relative.
Can Shapeshift. Changing whatever form she likes except her height won't change.
She suddenly started taking a liking to wielding swords, Nodaichi swords. Which is something she inherited from her late mother that she barely got to know or see.
Hachishakusama is evolving into a Daiyokai. A Higher Ranked Demon. A Greater Demon. Ascending into power beyond any demon's imagination.
She found herself some friends. She met Kankandara in the dark forests.
She met Syren at this very lagoon and beach area.
Next week she went after the East monk and to kill him.
She wounded the east monk and had nearly crippled him if it wasn't for the Elder Monk to save the east monk at the last minute as he created something by pleading with the gods to make something capable of stopping Hachishakusama.
And so. The Jizo seal statue was created. Its purpose was to repel Hachishakusama away from children, or imprison her inside it.
The East monk and the Great Elder Monk both battled Hachishakusama.
Badly wounded and injured the east monk was, as he struggled with Hachishakusama who used her earthquake power to destroy his path.
The Elder monk Activated the Jizo seal statue as it's bindings would subdue the 8 foot tall woman and would drag her inside the statue as she made one last attempt to kill the east monk before she was sealed away but out of sheer luck the Elder sacrificed his life and became Hachishakusama's latest victim. As she was sealed inside the statue.
It was all over.
For many years in the Edo period of the west she had been imprisoned. Until someone or something destroyed her prison and freed her.
Reunited with her friends she is now bringing them to Inunaki Village and to become Naruto's wives.
"My friends. I have come to bring you both to my new home along with our yokai faction. My husband and I are leading it. And I want you two to join." Hachishakusama would say
"Ara? You have a lover? That is surprising, yet intriguing~" Syren would say with a grin.
"He is a Daiyokai too like us. I made him one. He was formerly a human boy." she says catching the two off guard. Her lover is a little boy? Knowing Hachishaku's history of hating kids and kills them.
"A Former human boy? What's the sudden change? I thought you hated children?" Aoi/Kankandara asked facing her friend
"This one particular boy is an exception. I still hold great hatred for children. But this one caught my attention and Interest. You see he's from the east living in those shinobi villages in the elemental nations. His parents neglected him over his other two siblings and made him an outcast, his presence was what brought my attention. His need in wanting attention, love. All above. And that drawn me to him." Hachishaku would answer. Truthfully the moment she and Naruto met each other in a dream she looked into his eyes and could see herself in the boy. Except he has a family while she doesn't. She could relate to the pain of wanting attention. Acceptance and love. Something nobody gave her when she was child. Nobody wanted to play with her, be around her. And treated her like an outcast because of her height.
"And you made him into a Daiyokai how?" Syren this time asked
"He desired to be special.. You see his parents are doing some sort of prophecy and believe both of their children are in the center of it. But I strongly believe the boy named Naruto is the prophecy child. So I granted his wish by giving him some of my Yokai blood to turn him and ascend him into a Daiyokai like myself. Once the deed was done, well the rest is history. No more he is a child but an adult now my blood also aged him up. We both fell in love and became husband and wife. Having four beautiful children." Hachishaku would continue surprising the two that she has children of her OWN.
"What are your plans?" Kankandara asked now seeing where this is going. As she saw Hachi smiling.
"I plan to help him get his revenge. Make him hate his family. Putting him on the path of great vengeance and furious anger. And maybe~ we could dominate and conquer the West and the EAST. We could form an empire here in the West and unify the lands. By killing many warlords, daimyo's and the nobles of course. Plus other Daiyokai as well. Are the two of you interested in joining? I could share my husband with the two of you~ he's very good in bed and well-developed ~" Hachishaku answered Making the two blush and smile. As both the snake lady and mermaid exchanged glances at one another then back at their friend.
"We are in." Kankandara and Syren both said in unison making Hachishaku smile.
"Welcome my friends." The 8-foot tall lady says.
( With Hyakkimaru and Co)
Hyakkimaru, along with Taeko and Loona were on their way back to their home having done another outing.
Loona as Upper Whirlpool 3. Kept her watch on Naruto-sama's children like the guard dog she is.
Hyakkimaru kept walking with his sister walking besides him and Loona behind them.
Before the demon boy could continue walking he heard something as he paused in his steps and turned to the right.
"Brother?" Taeko asks noticing him paused in his direction.
Hyakkimaru turned as he heard a gentle yet beautiful voice sing. As he walked to the source of it not even answering his sister.
"What's with him?" Loona asked
"I don't know… what do you smell?" Taeko asked the Dog demon who took a whiff in the air.
"A Human girl… and she's not far. She's nearby a lake…" Loona answered using her great sense of smell that's 10 times as better than a dog's or Inuzuka's sense of smell.
"Lets go." Taeko says following after her brother with Loona following her.
Hyakkimaru was in silence as he listened to the music his soul sight glanced ahead at a pure white soul.
"What a gentle voice…." He thought still walking and following the sound of that voice
As he made it passed the trees, he spotted a girl in the lake. Still singing however her singing paused when she realized she's not alone and looked to Hyakkimaru'a direction.
Both their eyes met each other. She stood up from the lake giving him her attention.
"Are you okay?" the girl asked.
The girl has long brown hair that curls at the edges, and brown eyes. She has her bangs laid across her face which reaches her mouth.
She wears a frayed red kimono with white flower patterns.
Hyakkimaru blushed at her appearance taking in her features with his eyes.
"That was beautiful…" He says to her making her smile.
"Th-Thanks.. Who are you?" She asked smiling at him.
"Hyakkimaru Uzumaki is my name." he answered
"Mio… Mio is my name.." The girl named Mio introduced herself
"What are you doing out here Hyakkimaru?" she asked.
"My sister and I.. Including our companion were on our way home." he answered her question
"Hyakkimaru!" Taeko called out to her brother as both she and Loona saw him with the human girl. Making Mio turn to both of them noticing one of them didn't look human. A dog demon.
She looked worried at the sight of a demon.
"Its okay. Loona is a friend." he assured her.
"Brother.. Who is this?" Taeko asked him.
"Taeko.. This is Mio. Mio this is my sister Taeko Uzumaki and our companion Loona." Hyakkimaru would introduce
"Nice meeting you." Mio greets to the two.
