Chapter 2358: The Eight Great War Gods(2/2)
Although Susanoo and others could not kill Oda Nobunaga, they would never serve the Japanese Empire, so they all announced their retirement, which also greatly weakened the vitality of the Japanese Empire.
With the five male guardian gods retreating and the life and death of the three demons unknown, the most powerful general in Japan turned out to be the most powerful general of the Tokugawa family, Honda Tadakatsu.
But Honda Tadakatsu is just a god general. He doesn’t even have the strength of a junior god of war. How can he afford the title of ‘the strongest’?
Since then, Japan has also fallen into a period of inactivity where top military commanders were disconnected.
Uesugi Kenshin knew that it was not that there were no masters in Japan, but that the real masters were unwilling to come out, and the only one who could make them come out was Himiko, so he asked Himiko for help through the Onmyoji lineage.
After receiving the news, Himiko immediately convened the Shinto high-level officials for discussion, and came to the conclusion that once the Uesugi family was destroyed, the situation in Japan would completely deteriorate, so he decided to let the strongest Susano'o lead two guardian gods.
Go to support the Uesugi family.
Long before the Battle of Tsushima, the Onmyoji lineage and the Shinto sect had reached a consensus and decided to help the local forces expel the Han coalition forces.
Facing the Han coalition forces including Da Qin, Himiko, Abe Seimei and other Onmyoji all knew that they must unite all the forces that can be united, so Abe Seimei went to Kyushu Island alone to find Yamata no Orochi.
In addition to Abe Seimei, Tsukuyomi was also sent to Hokkaido to find the reclusive Otakemaru, while Himiko personally went to invite him to drink wine.
That's right, Yamata no Orochi and the other three major demons are not dead, and were deliberately released by the Shinto religion.
Himiko originally wanted to subdue her and absorb her into Shintoism, but she did not expect that her husband Oda Nobunaga, who had high hopes for her, betrayed her instead.
Now that the Yamatai Kingdom has been destroyed, and the Japanese Empire has separated politics and religion, there is no point in conquering the Three Demons.
