Konoha: Who is the good person?

Five kilometers outside the town.

Six Mist Ninjas led by Xiguashan Puffer Ghost returned to the area where they had set up an ambush after barely repelling the Sand Ninjas led by Ye Cang.

"Captain, there are no signs of fighting at the scene. They were all killed in one blow. Judging from the wound on the neck, it is likely that they are masters of wind escape nature changes."

A Mist Ninja who is proficient in on-site investigation reported the results to Xiguashan Puffer Ghost.

"Which direction did the enemy leave from?"

"The traces of our previous battle were too messy, and there is no way to judge."

"Are there no other clues?"

"...Yes, yes."

The fierce killing intent that gradually enveloped his body made the Mist Ninja sweat profusely.

Seeing his subordinates shrinking, Xiguashan Puffer Ghost snorted with dissatisfaction.

He turned his head and took out the summoning scroll of the great sword Samehada from his arms, and his fingertips passed over the wound on his forearm that was still bleeding.

After making seals with both hands, he slapped his palms on the summoning contract in the center of the scroll.

A huge chakra smoke rose.

The big knife Samehada, who should have appeared in the center of the scroll, had no reaction to the summoning contract.

Xiguashan Puffer Ghost's heart trembled, and a bad premonition came to his mind. He did not believe in evil and performed the summoning technique again.

The summoning scroll under his feet still did not react at all.

Bang~

Xiguashan Puffer Ghost grabbed the head of his subordinate beside him and threw it to the ground.

The anger rising in his chest made him want to punch the subordinate's head.

The continuous defeats in the battle with Ye Cang had already made the village's senior officials dissatisfied with him.

If the big knife Samehada, one of the faces of the village, was lost.

He would inevitably face the village's questioning!

"I'll give you one last chance. Find the thief who stole Samehada, or I'll crush your bones inch by inch!"

"Yes, yes!"

The Kirigakure ninja, with a collapsed nose and blood all over his face, had already been frightened and could only respond in a hurry.

The remaining Kirigakure ninjas also hurriedly took action, searching for traces left on the battlefield inch by inch.

While staying away from the furious Xiguashan puffer ghost, they also hoped to find some clues left by the enemy.

Otherwise, this anger will probably still fall on them in the end.

————————

In a humble house in the town.

The oil lamp lit on the square table flickered with a soybean-sized flame and emitted a dim light.

A Sand Ninja dressed as a civilian hid his own breath well, pretending to be an ordinary person, busy preparing dinner.

In the basement of the house.

Ye Cang and his six subordinates, who had escaped from the entanglement of the Kirigakure Ninja, treated their injuries with the help of the medical ninja.

Although Ye Cang's behavior of rushing into the encirclement alone successfully destroyed Kirigakure's plan, it also attracted most of the firepower, allowing his companions to take the opportunity to counter-encircle.

But after a fierce battle, five people on their side were still killed.

Almost all of them were injured, and it was obviously impossible to retreat over a long distance.

In this case, compared with the open wilderness, the town with a more complex personnel structure is undoubtedly more conducive to their hiding.

Dongdong~Dongdongdongdong~Dong~

There was a rhythmic knocking sound from the door panel of the basement.

Hearing that the code was correct, the Sand Ninja guarding the door of the basement breathed a sigh of relief and opened the door.

"Master Ye Cang, the situation is not right."

The Sand Ninja who entered the basement quickly reported the results of the investigation.

After they and the Kirigakure Ninja stopped fighting.

He, who was the least injured, returned to the place where the Kirigakure ninja had originally set up an ambush under Ye Cang's instructions.

Not only did he not find his companions.

The four headless Kirigakure ninja corpses also made him feel particularly strange!

There were no traces of any powerful ninjutsu at the scene, nor were there any messy footprints and damage from close combat.

Everyone was killed with one strike!

He knew it very well.

Akazaburo, who stayed in place due to injury, did not have such strength even in his prime.

"Third party?"

Ye Cang narrowed his eyes slightly.

The sharp senses trained by long-term wandering on the edge of life and death made her alarm bells ring.

Almost without thinking, she sat up from the ground and said to everyone.

"It's not safe here anymore, retreat!"

"Yes!"

Everyone responded in unison.

She quickly packed up her weapons and supplies, used the transformation technique to transform into the appearance of ordinary people, and quickly left the basement.

Just before they were about to merge into the street.

A very strange, yet very familiar sound of water flow reached everyone's ears.

Ye Cang looked up in the direction where the sound came from.

Small sharks were swimming in the water.Wrapped in the bag, he swam straight towards the direction where everyone was!

Damn it!

Who didn't deal with the smell on his body!

Ye Cang cursed inwardly, knowing that it was meaningless to blame his subordinates at this time.

He raised his hand to the people behind him and made a warning gesture.

Although he didn't know why the ninjas from the Hidden Mist Village wanted to catch up at this time when they had just fought in the afternoon.

But the two sides had been fighting for so long, and they had tacitly never fought in the town.

After all, once large-scale damage was caused in the town.

Even if the Daimyo of the Tea Country was cowardly, he would protest to the Daimyo of the Water Country and the Daimyo of the Wind Country.

With the complex relationship between the Daimyo of each country, what followed was the Daimyo of each country blaming their respective ninja villages.

According to common sense.

After the ninjas of the Hidden Mist Village were discovered, they had lost the opportunity to assassinate them by means of poisonous smoke, fog, illusion, etc.

At most, they would say a few harsh words and then they would have no choice but to withdraw.

But.

The Xiguashan Pufferfish Ghost, who is now the leader of the Mist Village, seems to be beyond common sense.

Almost the moment he saw the Sand Village.

The anger in his heart completely broke out!

"Water Style: Water Fang Bullet!"

The rotating water flow gathered in front of him, and a water gun broke through the air and shot directly at Ye Cang's group!

Even if the other Mist Village ninjas still had concerns.

But they came from the Blood Mist Village and understood that if they didn't help the Xiguashan Pufferfish Ghost get back the big sword Samehada.

Without waiting for the village to attack them.

As the captain and the strongest Xiguashan Pufferfish Ghost, he would kill them!

That guy will never be merciful to his own people.

One by one, the kunai and shuriken made a sharp sound of breaking through the air and shot at the Sand Village group standing at the alley.

One after another, water-style ninjutsu was released from the hands of the Kirigakure ninjas!

Ye Cang's pupils shrank sharply.

They misjudged Kirigakure's intentions, and while hastily dodging, they all used defensive ninjutsu!

Boom! Boom~ Boom~

The collision of ninjutsu and ninjutsu instantly erupted in the town with a deafening roar.

Screams mixed with cries broke the peace and tranquility when the lights came on.

Yamanaka Kei and Namikaze Minato, who had just finished dinner, frowned at the tragic scene of the collision of ninjutsu hundreds of meters away.

In a flash of thought, they had already understood that they had misjudged the importance of the big sword Samehada.

If it weren't for the sudden disappearance of this sword.

After fighting for a long time, the two sides who had maintained a certain degree of restraint would not have fought in the town without regard for the consequences.

"How about giving the knife back to them?"

"How about just killing them?"

Minato Namikaze and Kei Yamanaka spoke at the same time.

After they finished speaking, one of them was helpless, and the other was disgusted.

After looking at each other, Xiao Taiyang finally gave in and chose his best friend's plan.
