The Land of Fire.

A short Mediterranean man wearing a black suit and sunglasses cursed, "Damn it, I came all the way to find Konoha Village for cooperation, but the old Third Hokage said that his Konoha Village has no money?"

The Land of Fire can be said to be the richest country in the Ninja World, and as a Ninja Village, Konoha's economy is definitely very developed. He saw the business opportunity and came all the way to Konoha Village to seek cooperation.

Originally thought that this cooperation was a done deal, but he didn't expect that the Hokage of Konoha actually told him that Konoha Village was short of funds and the two sides could not reach a cooperation.

This made him very angry, thinking that Konoha Village looked down on him, "I'm so angry, I, Cardo, am one of the richest businessmen in the Ninja World, and Konoha Village dared to look down on me!" He has decided that he will never do business with Konoha Village again.

"Boss, calm down." A man with a knife next to him flattered. He was one of the bodyguards hired by Cardo, a wandering samurai who was responsible for protecting his safety.

"I will never come again, let's go back." Cardo snorted. Several bodyguards behind him nodded hurriedly upon hearing this.

Then, they began to move towards the direction of the Land of Waves, and at this moment, a sound came from the woods.

Several bodyguards heard the movement and looked around vigilantly, "Who is it?" As they said, several people drew their samurai swords.

In the woods, a dozen strong men with big swords suddenly rushed out, and the scarred strong man in the lead shouted: "I opened this road and planted this tree. If you want to pass through here, leave money to buy your way!"

I didn't expect that there would be bandits on the border of the Land of Fire, and I don't know what the ninjas of Konoha Village do for a living?

Looking at so many bandits in front of him, Cardo couldn't help but feel a little panic in his heart.

However, when he glanced at the bodyguards beside him, he quickly regained his composure.

After all, these samurai were carefully selected by him, and their strength was comparable to that of a Chunin. It was easy to deal with these bandits.

"Deal with them all." Cardo said in a cold tone.

The bandits couldn't help but get nervous when they heard Cardo's calm words.

Are these samurai martial artists pretending to be weak?

The scarred man in the lead looked at the samurai subconsciously, but found that their hands holding the swords were trembling slightly.

He couldn't help but wonder: "They don't look like powerful characters..."

However, he didn't let down his guard. After all, those who dared to despise them were either extremely stupid or had absolute confidence and strength to deal with them.

The bandits took a step back unconsciously, and secretly decided in their hearts that if the situation was unfavorable, they would run away immediately.

Cardo looked at the bodyguards standing there motionless, and a surge of anger surged in his heart.

He widened his eyes and shouted angrily: "What are you still standing there for? Why don't you act quickly? Do you want these bandits to escape? Kill them all immediately!"

Hearing Cardo's order, the bodyguards looked at each other, trembling, but dared not act easily.

Finally, they mustered up their courage, tremblingly raised their knives, and slowly walked towards the bandit leader.

The scarred man saw the bodyguards' actions and his heart tightened.

He held the knife tightly in his hand and was ready to fight the enemy. The bandits behind him also raised their vigilance and were ready.

However, just as the two sides were on the verge of a fight, something unexpected happened...

The bodyguards suddenly stopped, threw the knives in their hands to the ground, and then knelt down with a plop, kowtowing and begging for mercy.

"Brother, please let us go! We don't want to die!"

"Yes, we are all forced to do this, please spare our lives!"

Kado's eyes widened, looking at the scene in front of him in disbelief.

He never thought that the bodyguards he hired would be such a bunch of people, and he was frightened to kneel down and beg for mercy!

"You rubbish! I paid you to protect me, but you are so useless!" Cardo cursed.

Cardo realized that the so-called bodyguards around him were actually a group of fakes, not as powerful as they boasted.

They were not even as good as ordinary ninjas, let alone the strength of Chunin.

He never thought that he would be deceived so thoroughly, not only losing a lot of money, but also losing his life.

Thinking of this, his legs began to tremble uncontrollably. If he hadn't just peed once, he would probably be scared to pee again at this moment.

The leader of the bandits saw several bodyguards kneeling in front of him.After reacting, he roared, "Damn it, you dare to play tricks on me!" As he said that, he took out a knife and chopped at a bodyguard in front of him.

"Ah!" With a scream, the bodyguard was killed.

Blood splashed on the face of the leading bandit, making him look particularly hideous and terrifying.

"Murder!!!" Seeing this, the other bodyguards got up from the ground and ran away.

"Chase!" The bandits hurriedly chased after him.

Seeing that their attention was not on him, Cardo ran away.

After the bandits hacked the bodyguard to death, they saw Cardo running away, "Damn it, don't let him run away!" As they said that, the bandits chased in the direction Cardo left.

Cardo heard the sound, and his feet almost left a shadow. Although Kado is short, his leg muscles are well-developed. Although his stride is small, his frequency is extremely fast. He is like a flexible rabbit, and his running speed is not slow. In the blink of an eye, he has opened up a distance with the bandits behind him.

The bandits behind him are also secretly amazed at Kado's running speed. To be honest, Kado is the fastest one among the people they have chased in these years.

But they did not give up, but followed Kado closely.

Kado kept running forward, and at the same time, he had to pay attention to the situation behind him at all times to avoid being caught up by the bandits.

As time went by, the distance between the two sides began to shorten slowly.

Although Kado has tried his best, due to the influence of long-term running and nervousness, his physical strength gradually decreased and his speed gradually slowed down.

The bandits behind him gradually shortened the distance with Kado because of regular exercise and better endurance.

Kado looked back and found that the distance between the two sides was only three or four hundred meters, and he was very flustered.

He knew very well that if he was caught by these bandits, not only would his money be robbed, but he might even lose his life.

"What should I do... What should I do!" Cardo was extremely anxious. At this moment, he suddenly saw a house not far ahead...

He was so excited, as if he had grabbed the last straw to save his life.
