6:) Enter Monk Miroku and the Mystery is Solved!
Izuku's Pov
After his run-in with Kikyo, Inuyasha spends more time staring into the distance and is away from Shippō and Kagome as he stares into the sky. Inuyasha thinks to himself he doesn't know if what happened is true anymore and wants to find out the truth. A young Monk is standing near a walkway with two different paths, with his being pointed to the right, still trying to figure out which way he should take. Soon after, he overhears two men speaking about a nearby rest home where a supposedly beautiful woman is working; the monk shifts his staff to the left and decides to follow them.
The monk is disappointed to find that the woman is not beautiful at all. The monk soon overhears from the same men that the daughter of a lord has been possessed by some sort of demon has taken to bed, and requires the aid of a priest; the monk visits this lord. The lord says that the monk must drive away the demon possessing his daughter or else he will receive no payment, and the monk notes her swollen face; the lord states that she always looks this way. The monk notices a Buddha statue and asks the lord about it; the lord says that he got it from an impoverished nobleman and that it was a blessed idol. The monk takes a closer look at the statue and asks that he and the others leave him alone in the room. The monk calls out to whoever is possessing the girl to come out and surrender peacefully and he will show it mercy.
The statue begins to shake and a weasel yōkai emerges. The demon attacks the monk, and he notices that it has a shard of the Shikon no Tama on its forehead. As the monk deals with the demon, outside the men note that it sounds less like an exorcism and more as if the temple is being pillaged, but the lord still maintains that they should stay outside and leave it to the monk.
Soon after the monk departs, the lord is told and his men quickly learn that all of the lord's valuables have been stolen by the monk. The monk is then seen leaving with all of the stolen goods with a carriage of 3 horses, searching for a place to pawn off the stolen items. That night, the monk is bathing in a hot spring, bemoaning the small price that he got for pawning off the goods; however, he says that the shard of the Shikon Jewel made the plunder worth his while. He soon hears someone, and it turns out that Kagome is bathing completely naked in a nearby hot spring as well. He stares at her breasts and notices the large shard of the Shikon Jewel hanging around her neck, noting that "they're...it's huge".
The monk is startled and tries to hide when Kagome warns Inuyasha to not look at her. Inuyasha replies that he has no interest in doing so. Kagome thinks to herself that she's not a beauty like Kikyō and something startles her and she screams, causing Inuyasha to come rushing to her aid. Revealing what startled her was a monkey pulling her hair, she hit him on the head with a boulder because she thought he was peeking. "Idiot that was this monk peeping on you!" Aria says holding a flustered yet scared monk.
"I don't want her near me ever," Inuyasha said.
"Could you get him to travel with us?" I asked and he nodded. They were using telepathy, and then our friend said,
"He will meet us in three days and he will find us during the journey." we all agreed but Kagome started being biased and saying rude stuff about Sesshomaru which was ignored. The next day, A raccoon dog is to take out Inuyasha, while the monk makes off with the Kagome for some reason; the raccoon dog asks the monk why he doesn't use his right hand to get the jewel in a matter of moments, but the monk replies that everyone would die if he did that. The raccoon dog transforms into some sort of boulder-like creature and comes crashing down the side of the mountain into Inuyasha, with Shippō falling as well. This tells me they think she had the shards but in reality, I did, and we went to help Inuyasha. The monk then grabs Kagome and begins riding her bicycle, kidnapping her. Inuyasha and us began wondering who the guy was, and punched the boulder; he then drew his sword and prepared to attack again, but the raccoon dog reverted to his original form and begged for forgiveness. We discuss the strange power that the monk utilized, somehow using wind to pull it in towards him; they soon realize that the monk took the jewel shard from me somehow, which pissed Kacchan off.
Inuyasha and the rest of us begin searching for the monk, with Inuyasha sniffing the ground to pick up his scent; the villagers take note of this strange behavior. They are surprised to quickly find her bicycle outside of a hut in a nearby village. Inuyasha bursts inside, to find the monk already with more women by his side, though he doesn't find them attractive. When the monk sees Kagome he comes straight over to her, grabbing her hands, which angers Inuyasha. Inuyasha begins chasing the monk to regain the jewel shard. Inuyasha then draws Tessaiga, but the monk blocks it with his staff; Inuyasha notes that this is no ordinary human. The monk introduces himself as Miroku and states that he is indeed a monk. They continue their battle, with the monk blocking each of Inuyasha's blows. The monk begins to lose his footing on a pile of logs, and Inuyasha is able to knock the staff out of Miroku's hands; he points Tessaiga at the monk, telling him to return the shard or die. To Inuyasha's surprise, the monk leaps back up to his feet and begins running away, telling the villagers to get away as fast as possible. Miroku begins massaging my butt; embarrassed, I moved away to Inuyasha and retract my previous statement that he might be a nice guy, telling Kacchan to kill him. Kakarot and Vegeta intervened before it went bad.
After we all calmed down, Miroku began telling the group about the history of his cursed hand; he told them that a wicked demon named had cursed his grandfather with the Wind Tunnel years ago. He says that Naraku and his grandfather battled many times over the years, and each time Naraku appeared to him it was in the form of a different human. Naraku's curse would be passed down to each generation until no one in the family remained. Miroku says that each year the wind in his hand gets more powerful, and the hole continues to grow; unless he kills Naraku, the Wind Tunnel will eventually suck him up as well.
Miroku continues telling the others about Naraku, saying that he is sure that Naraku has begun gathering shards of the Shikon Jewel in order to strengthen his power as it is said that he nearly got the Sacred Jewel 50 years ago after killing the priestess protecting it. This bit of information catches Inuyasha's attention. Inuyasha asks Miroku did he said Naraku killed the priestess. Miroku tells Inuyasha 'yes'. Inuyasha thinks to himself that Naraku was the one who took his form and wounded Kikyō as there's no doubt about it. Inuyasha grabs Miroku and asks him since he said Naraku takes different forms and wonders what does he looks like now. Miroku asks Inuyasha if he knew that he'd found him long ago and slain him. Inuyasha thinks to himself that Naraku had laid a trap for Kikyō and himself, and made them hate each other and the one who killed her is still alive and is after the Sacred Jewel. Inuyasha says he will find Kikyō's killer and avenge her death. I noticed that Kagome had a hurt look on her face and I rolled my eyes.
