Chapter 796: , The World Below the Horizon

Ordinary and mundane; this was Kurotsuchi's first impression after entering this town.

As night approached, people who went out to work or farm gradually returned to the town, and the drizzling rain continued to fall from the gloomy sky, wetting the pedestrians' rubber raincoats before landing on the bluestone streets of the town.

The Land of Rain is always like this, and everyone has long been accustomed to it.

Walking on the somewhat slippery bluestone road, Kurotsuchi's mood was somewhat bad.

Under the hurried rush all the way, Kurotsuchi couldn't care about anything else, and as a result, she was wet all over, looking extremely disheveled.

From time to time, people on the side of the road would place their gaze on this disheveled girl, but soon, when they saw the metal forehead protector on Kurotsuchi's forehead, they immediately shifted their gaze away.

Not only that, everyone retreated from Kurotsuchi as if avoiding a plague god from somewhere, which also made Kurotsuchi instantly eye-catching in the crowd.

The gazes of the passersby also reminded Kurotsuchi; she gritted her teeth, took off the forehead protector on her forehead, and quietly put it away.

Afterward, Kurotsuchi walked on the slippery bluestone road of the town without stopping for a moment; she kept looking around, searching for a place to stay.

Kurotsuchi was now tired, hungry, and cold; she continued to look for a place to rest.

Finally, she saw an inn, and just as she was about to enter it...

Suddenly, she thought of something, and her mood became even worse.

Because she suddenly realized one thing, a very important thing.

That is—no money.

It makes sense; Kurotsuchi first entered the "wolf's den," then entered the "tiger's lair," and being able to escape with her life was already a stroke of luck; where would she have even half a cent on her?

As the saying goes, a penny can stump a hero; without money, it's hard to move an inch.

The top priority was that Kurotsuchi had to find a way to get some money.

Think of her, the dignified daughter of the Tsuchikage, a genius famous in the Rock Village; when had she ever suffered such grievances?

Kurotsuchi felt a sourness in her heart, and her mood became even more depressed.

But soon, the naturally optimistic girl forcibly calmed her mood.

"Whew."

Kurotsuchi sighed softly; if it weren't for falling into the current dangerous situation, she really wouldn't want to do this.

But apart from this, she had no other way.

Thinking of this, a flash of depth crossed Kurotsuchi's clear black and white eyes.

At night, there were few people on the damp bluestone streets of the town, with only three or five drunks walking side by side on the street, shouting loudly.

A girl was curled up under the eaves, hugging her legs, looking extremely pitiful.

She was wet all over, and under the dim light, her face could not be seen clearly, and her body kept trembling slightly due to the low temperature, looking particularly pitiful.

Soon, the weak girl fell into the eyes of someone with intentions.

Two ruffian-looking men looked at the girl curled up under the eaves, unable to help but swallow, a flash of lewd light in their eyes.

Although they couldn't see the girl's face clearly, the girl's legs, which were long enough to be considered heaven-defying, had already made the two unable to hold back.

Not to mention anything else, just these legs were enough to stir up the dirty thoughts in their hearts.

The two looked at each other and saw the evil thoughts in each other's eyes.

So, the two approached.

"Little sister, why are you here alone?"

The man asked the girl curled up on the ground with a greasy voice and a strange laugh.

"Don't worry, brothers are all good people."

The other man said with feigned kindness, but the saliva at the corner of his mouth almost couldn't be held back from dripping down.

"I... I..."

"Good..."

The girl seemed to be extremely cold, and after hesitating for a long time, she responded timidly.

Seeing this, the two showed expressions of ecstasy, and lewd green light appeared in their eyes.

"Come, brother will take you home..."

Saying that, the two took the girl and walked toward a dark alley to the side.

Under the night, the gloomy and dark alley was pitch black.

Before they had gone far, the two suddenly surrounded the girl in the middle, one in front and one behind, and immediately one of them showed a hideous smile.

"Little sister, brother..."

But before he could finish speaking, the girl suddenly raised her head.

Under her curved willow eyebrows were a pair of bright and clear beautiful eyes, and her petite nose and crimson mouth were full of pure and lovely charm; no matter how you looked at it, she was a beauty who made people's eyes light up.

But before the two could be amazed, a cold, chilling light had already bloomed in her clear black and white eyes.

"Bang!"

I saw the girl deliver a stylish and effortless kick; with a dull thud, the two immediately fell to the ground, clutching their injured parts in pain.

In one strike, the two had several ribs broken at the same time...

They were just two thugs; with the girl's strength, she could naturally deal with them easily.

"You two, hand over all your money!"

"Otherwise..."

The girl threatened unceremoniously, her tone full of cold coercion.

"Yes, yes, yes!!!"

Immediately, the two thugs knew they had encountered a "black-on-black" situation, so they could only admit their bad luck and hurriedly took out all the money they had on them.

The two were just ordinary thugs, so naturally, they didn't have much silver on them, and together they only had a meager few tens of thousands.

However, this money was enough for the girl's emergency needs.

She unceremoniously snatched the banknotes they offered from the two thugs; in that instant, under the blurry light, one of the thugs saw the girl's pretty and flawless face again.

Suddenly, the thug seemed to think of something, a flash of shock in his eyes.

After the girl took the money, she didn't kill the two, but just turned and left.

With the kindness in her character, she still couldn't do something like killing for money, even though she knew these two were not good people, she still couldn't get past that hurdle in her heart.

Clearly, although she had outstanding strength and talent, her eighteen years of age had not yet allowed her to grow into an experienced ninja.

She also didn't know that a moment of soft-heartedness would bring such a great disaster upon herself.

After the girl left, it took a long time for the thugs with broken ribs to stand up.

One of them said to the thug beside him with ecstatic eyes.

"It's her, it's her!"

"She is the woman with the bounty in the exchange!"

"Go tell the boss quickly!"

Hearing this, the other was also overjoyed, and the two supported each other, limping toward the casino in the town.

—That was their stronghold.

Snakes have snake paths, and rats have rat paths.

Sometimes, it's not just ninjas who have the best intelligence.

Don't forget, what's most in the gutter is neither poisonous snakes nor rats, but cockroaches that can never be killed or extinguished...

Leaving behind the scheming and destructive wars between the great nations.

Everything that happened in the Underground Exchange was another world below the horizon of the Ninja World.

These were the bottom-most, most real Ninja World. ===== CHAPTER 798 =====
