This update (i voted for it) makes me think there is a not irrisory chance that when she gets back to Konoha she might approach Naruto to ask 'So i heard you have a demon inside you... want me to eat it?'.

Alas, if there is something that might give indigestion to G.D.M. it's the Buiji.

Things not mentioned in the post include that Mio is now a natural blonde, and has natural glitter.

DNA and chakra signature is still the same, with no changes whatsoever, which will have experienced medical professionals ripping their hair out in frustration by the handfuls if they find that out. Because hair isn't supposed to just decide to change color because the owner likes it more, or teeth decide to be sharp and carnivorous, or fingernails turn into claws that can carve into stone.

...huh. It seems that MIO's appearance changes are based on her self-image or something, then.

I am worried that made our demonic arm's effectiveness by diluting it and i'm worried about having lost it's irreplaceable knowledge and still having mental contamination.

Its knowledge of the world seems to boil down to "MEAT! OBEY! SUFFER! FEED! OBEY!" and it showed no inclination to do anything other than eat us, even when we were killing it one inch at a time. I rather doubt it would have ever been a font of wisdom and information on our surroundings. Likewise, I don't think it was some unspeakably powerful uberdemon who could have kicked this Oni's ass for us - it seemed like a lower-middle-rank parasite demon that needed a human host to survive.

Wasn't there a thing in Japanese mythology where dozens of demons are thrown in a crucible, each consuming the power of the others until only one is left? If we're going to survive Tobi upon returning, we kind of need all the power we can get, even if it makes it kinda hard to fit in back home.

The poison bug jar - it's a bit of Japanese folklore where magicians would, supposedly, place certain spells upon an earthen jar or pot, fill it with poisonous insects, rats, and other unpleasant creatures, seal the top, and then bury it for a lunar month. Supposedly, over the course of the lunar month the various creatures inside would fight and kill one another for dominance or our of hunger - and the spell on the jar would cause the flesh and spirit of each creature that fell to merge with its killer's; by the end of the month, the vermin that went in originally would have all been fused together into a hideous demonic "familiar", which could then be commanded by the magician once he let it out of the jar.

Inuyasha, in one of its moments of actually being good, had the main villain apply the principle of the poison bug jar to a hollowed-out mountain he filled with demons, gradually giving rise to a single uber-mega-hyperdemon as they all killed each other and the losers were absorbed by the victors. The payoff was kind of garbage, but at least it was a neat application of ideas from folklore.

Regarding the rest of your post, I'd say we should at least try feasting on some of the lesser demons around here, just in case we can grow stronger from it. Optimally, we eventually get strong enough to beat this POS oni, then parlay with the Gumo-Hime for it to send us back to the living world in exchange for sending it mortals to feast on/rape/whatever and spreading its influence in the mortal world.

Having just caught up.

Damn this is amazing.

It also reminded me of something I saw a while ago, spent forever trying to find this again.

And between MIO's glorious transformation and the name of the Arc (Arc 2: Flower of Yomi's Hundred-Demon night parade.) this is just too fitting:

Since when have we been interested in being human? Since when have we been interested in following someone elses knowledge? More to the point: We now have three eyes.

More to the point: We're back bitches!

I jusr had a thought. If that Arm used our own DNA to make that eye, but didn't use all of it, would that make it sort of like our "brother"? Or in other words: Could we use that to swap our own eyes out with?

 

[Irked]

thinking about it i wonder if our Transformation has altered the way Mio's body will grow, she can probably still increase her physical strength and muscles through training (perhaps more so than most people due to our demon traits letting us bulk up muscle more than possible, not to mention chakra shenanigans letting people like Lee and Gai look pretty trim while still being able to break mountains with their hands) but it would be pretty funny if due to Mio's image of herself (and possibly her sharingan recording her current form perfectly) that she now never looked older than her current age.

And then the medics run our Dna and everything still looks normal.

I hope we don't get stuck at this age. It would suck.

i mean she could probably still go and gain stats as normal but her self image means that her body always looks like it does now.

No. I mean get into his belly, with something long and sharp if possible, and stab the crap out of any organs we can reach from there.

Edit: While bypassing his teath. That's a very important part.

Edit: And also swap with something heavy to get back out if we need to. "Zombieland Rule 22:When in doubt Know your way out."

 

[Snake/Eater]

if we only had something sharp and long to cut with, we could try aiming and severing the big Oni's joints at the ankles to retreat.

Attack on Titan logic for the win

well, their is now a chance we wont be able to leave the demon realm because you know were now a demon.... which means waiting for someone to summon us

No actually. Remember when Naruto arrived to the Pain fight he was reverse summoned by a toad. Apparent discussion between this Toad and Pa where Pa says 'I told you to take us to Konoha', 'this should be Konoha' makes it seem that they can at will teleport wherever they want to go or something. The rules really aren't well defined but they don't seem to be limited beyond not seeing the point of leaving their realms. The thought of Mio being constrained by summon rules amuses me considering that even if it applied she'd just go NOPE.

Honestly I would have loved more canon stuff on the summon creatures. They seem to have an interesting society that could mesh interestingly with shinobi history, except their kinda just there for the 'cool' factor. Not even utilised in normal battles that much either. I was so annoyed when Naruto vs Neji happened and it didn't involve summoning a toad the size of a mountain and going, 'hah, what does your fate have to say about that?'

No? I'm not sure I understand what the question is.

If the question is 'don't you need a boss summon to at will teleport?' I believe no because the toad that went ahead to reverse summon them to Konoha was not Pa or anyone in particular, just a toad summon. ...I think?

Checking: Ch 409 Gamakitchi summons Naruto to Mt Myoboku-something
Ch 430 Shima at will teleports them to Konoha

Huh, maybe you are right, although there really isn't enough information to go on here. Could be boss summon shenanigans, could be that Shima just happened to be the one to at will teleport them. It really isn't commented on as an ability or anything. Actually Jiraiya uses messenger toads doesn't he? Did they teleport or long travel? Dammit, need more info.

Edit:...Now I'm wondering why in the Jiraiya vs Pain battle, why wouldn't Pa bail back to the mountain and reverse summon Jiraiya immediately considering it was a losing battle near the end. Or teleport him back to Konoha or something. Fighting to the end seems really dumb in retrospect. He was a spymaster as well so it's not like he'd lose honour by running away or anything. Plot hole?
