Chapter 16: Abandoning the worthless compassion
Murano Jihei.
The mayor of Sakura Falls Town is also the client of their mission.
Once, he was the richest man in Sakura Falls Town.
However, all this changed after the appearance of those bandits.
"Master Jihei! The ninjas of Konoha are here!"
Led by a skinny old servant, Xiyang Zhenwo and Fujiwara Tetsuya finally met Murano Jihei.
Unlike the residents of the town, Murano Jihei's face can be described as ruddy.
Obviously, as the mayor of Sakura Falls Town, even if most of the goods were robbed by bandits.
Murano Jihei's life is still comfortable.
"Hello, Mr. Murano! I am Konoha's Jonin Yuihiro Shingo, and this is my disciple. We will complete your mission this time."
"Jonin?"
"Really reliable!"
"Then I'll leave the matter of eliminating the bandits to you two!"
I don't know if it was Fujiwara Tetsuya's illusion!
Under his gaze, a strange smile seemed to flash across Murano Osamu's face.
As if he was calculating something.
"Mr. Murano, don't worry! Leave this matter to us! However, before that, Mr. Murano needs to tell us everything he knows, such as: their number, the location where they are entrenched, the number of hostages in their hands, etc."
"Everything? Okay! I will tell you the truth!"
Murano Osamu's wrinkled eyebrows were raised high, as if he was thinking about something seriously. After ten seconds, he nodded heavily.
"Teacher Xiyang! Murano Osamu just now, I'm afraid he didn't tell the truth."
"My intuition tells me that this old man seems to be...What are you hiding! "
In a remote part of the town, Fujiwara Tetsuya leaned against a cherry tree, quietly looking at the petals scattered under his feet, and then his eyes fell on Sunset Shin-Me.
There was a little worry on his face.
Ninja world or something!
Could there be something like the will of heaven?
Or, it was that old bastard Liudao who noticed his identity as a time traveler.
As soon as he left the novice village, he set a trap for him?
Want to correct him?
Based on what he had seen in his previous life!
Fujiwara Tetsuya has already suffered from mild paranoia.
"Yo! Tetsuya, your insight is really sharp!"
"Murano Jihei is indeed hiding something!"
"But that doesn't matter. In the face of absolute strength, any conspiracy is just a paper tiger!"
"As long as he can afford the bounty for the C-level mission, that's enough for us! "
Although, Xiyang Zhenwo showed full courtesy to Murano Jihei just now.
But it is obvious that deep down, something or other!
The arrogant Xiyang Zhenwo!
Still look down on Murano Jihei, the little mayor.
Just when Fujiwara Tetsuya was about to continue asking.
Swish!
Two figures instantly appeared in front of Fujiwara Tetsuya.
"Mikoto, Bokuto! You are back!"
"In addition to the location and number of bandits! Have you investigated any useful information?"
When talking about the mission, Xiyang Zhenwo's expression suddenly restrained a lot.
"Xiyang teacher! I believe you have learned enough about the bandits from the client, so I will not elaborate on it. "
"However, there are two points that make Bokuto and I absolutely curious"
"More than ten years ago, during the first ninja war, a group of wandering ninjas appeared around the town of Yingluo, causing trouble everywhere! However, these people suddenly disappeared after the end of the first ninja war. "
"A few months later, Murano Jihei appeared in Sakura Town and quickly took the position of mayor, which has not changed for more than ten years."
"A wandering ninja?"
While whispering, Xiyang Zhenwo's eyes gradually became serious.
The gap between ordinary bandits and ninjas is completely different.
If there are ninjas involved this time, then this mission must be upgraded to at least B-level.
"So, Mikoto, do you suspect that Murano Jihei is related to the wandering ninjas from more than ten years ago?"
"That's right! To be precise, I suspect that Murano Jihei is one of the wandering ninjas from more than ten years ago."
"Okay! It seems that this matter is more complicated than we thought!"
"Go on!"
Touching his forehead, Xiyang Zhenwo felt tired.
It's not his strong point to go around in circles.
"Another point, Mu Ren and I found traces of ninjutsu near Sakura Town! Although it was deliberately cleaned up and hidden from the eyes of me and Mu Ren, it was sensed by Mu Ren's bugs. "
"After recovery, the ninja who fought was at least a Chunin, which is above the level of Chunin."
"Teacher Xiyang! The enemy we are facing this time may not be simple!"
Sure enough!
In Naruto, there are ninjas who can live to adulthood!
None of them is just eating for free.
Uchiha Mikoto!
Is her mind so meticulous?
Looking at the slender back of Uchiha Mikoto, Fujiwara Tetsuya's eyes moved slightly.
As for the risk factor of the mission, Fujiwara Tetsuya didn't take it too seriously.
There is Xiyang Zhenwei!
If you want to kill them! This group of wandering ninjas must at least stand out an elite Jonin-level ninja.
In the Land of Fire!
This possibility is undoubtedly extremely low.
"Okay! I understand!"
"We will know the details when we go to the place where the bandits are staying!"
"If there is none! That would be the best! "If there is! After we clear out this group of bandits, we may have to find Mr. Murano and have a good talk." Patting the fallen cherry blossoms on his body, Sunset True Self slowly stood up. It was obvious that he was very dissatisfied with what Murano Jihei did. There is a mountain forest more than ten kilometers north of Yingluo Town. The highest point is only seven or eight hundred meters high. However, because of the scattered peaks and dense jungles. It can be called a dangerous place. Of course, this is for ordinary people. Because the group of bandits settled here. The barren peaks that used to have some figures became more and more silent. In the evening. --------------------xxxx--------------------
Several bonfires suddenly lit in the leeward side of the foothills. In the whistling mountain wind, the bandits' howling, the women's sobbing, and the children's pleading continued to echo in the mountains. "These damn bastards! "
At the top of a giant tree not far from the bonfire, under the shade of the tree, Uchiha Mikoto's pair of single magatama appeared at some point.
The scarlet eyes, under the reflection of the night moon, exuded boundless chill.
Glancing at the beautiful girl beside him, Fujiwara Tetsuya shrank his neck and silently prayed for the bandits in the distance.
"Mikoto! You will be the commander of this battle!"
"Tetsuya, Mujin! You two listen to Mikoto's orders!"
"Tetsuya! This is probably the first time you have experienced bloody killings between people! As a teacher, I have a word for you!"
"As a qualified ninja! You must abandon the worthless compassion!"
