The main gate of Konoha.

The two guards only felt a gust of wind, and the next moment, two shadows disappeared from their sight.

However, the golden twin ponytails and the big word "gamble" on the back of the robe still made the two of them see clearly.

"What happened to Lady Tsunade?"

"I don't know. Why did you run out in such a hurry? Did something go wrong?"

"Maybe. Forget it. It's not our turn to intervene in such a big man's affairs.

Just finish this last shift. It's almost time for the handover!"

As he said that, he looked at the list of people entering and leaving.

His brows slightly frowned, "I remembered something!"

"Lady Tsunade and the others have left the village. Should we add her name?"

"If you want to add it, add it. Besides, Lady Tsunade doesn't need a village exit order if she wants to leave the village."

"That's right!"

As for the little fat man following her, they were completely ignored by the two of them.

We are all working part-time, why make yourself uncomfortable!

On the village road.

Linghua put her hands on her chest and made a seal to mobilize chakra.

"【Baiyan】~Open!"

The next moment, her vision changed.

The world was no longer vivid and colorful, but turned into monotonous black and white.

At the same time, her sight quickly spread to the village road ahead.

Soon she reached the limit distance.

"Teacher, I can't see him!" Linghua retracted her sight and said.

Hearing this, Tsunade was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect Kato Dan to run so fast.

"Let's speed up!"

"Yes, teacher!"

Talking separately.

Kato Dan squatted on top of a big tree with a frown on his face. He tried his best to hide himself.

Not far away from him was a group of caravans, but judging from their behavior, they obviously all had chakra.

They all sat around the campfire in silence.

Originally, Kato Dan had planned to rush back at full speed the moment he left the gate of Konoha.

He wanted to make a great contribution on the border.

In this way, he would have a chance to compete with Orochimaru for the position of Hokage.

But he didn't expect that he had just run about 30 kilometers out of the village when he keenly noticed someone nearby.

So out of curiosity, he quietly touched here.

Then he realized that there was something wrong with this group of merchants.

It would be fine if they didn't talk during the period, but the most important materials for merchants were thrown away casually.

Aren't they afraid that the goods will be damaged or robbed?

And there is something strange, this man dressed as a rich businessman actually sat around the fire with servants.

In the eyes of most rich businessmen, people are divided into three, six, nine levels, and servants are the lowest level, not much different from slaves.

So his intuition told him that there was something wrong here.

So he squatted down and prepared to see what they were doing.

Next to the fire.

After an unknown amount of time, the merchant suddenly asked, "Are you all sure? Are all the Sand Ninjas who attacked Konoha last time detained there!?"

"It's confirmed!" A man dressed as a servant replied, stirring the fire.

"Konoha's prison can't accommodate so many Sand Ninjas. Some of them were sent to Konoha's mines to mine!

Our main goal tonight is to rescue all these Sand Ninjas who are doing hard labor!"

A man dressed as a guard replied with a sigh of relief, "As long as we don't attack Konoha, the defense of Konoha Prison is far superior to Konoha. Our few people are not enough to fill their teeth!

"I heard that since those people with red eyes took over Konoha Prison, there have been no more jailbreaks or prison robberies!"

"Uchiha... it would be great if I could get a pair of [Sharingan]! ”

“Hey… what are you thinking about…”

“…”

Hearing this, Kato Dan understood.

It seems that this group of ninjas are dressed as Sand Ninjas, and their purpose is to rescue their companions.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sneer.

If they had known this, why did they attack Konoha in the first place? If they hadn't attacked Konoha, they wouldn't have ended up like this!

However, since they were encountered by me, it's their bad luck.

And there is another thing, they have reformed the border line.

The approval documents for the reform were sent to the hands of their respective border leaders half a month ago.

How did this group of people deceive the ninjas on the border?

This is a very serious problem, and he had to take action.

Thinking of this, he gently took out the kunai and slowly raised it in front of his eyes.

The kunai is black, and the cold moonlight cannot reflect its light.

'Leave the leader of this group to interrogateThat's enough! '

Thinking of this, he instantly disappeared from the spot.

Whoosh!

The flames of the bonfire seemed to be blown by something, and they shook continuously in an instant.

The attention of the rest of the people was attracted to the bonfire.

"Hey, what is that?" The man dressed as a servant asked in surprise.

"What what?"

"Didn't you see it? A black shadow flashed by just now, but it was too fast, and I didn't see it clearly at all!"

Hearing his words, a trace of fear flashed across the rich businessman's eyes.

He immediately yelled, "Enemy attack, get out of the way!"

At the same time, his body quickly jumped back.

Hearing his roar, the people around the bonfire were stunned for a moment, and suddenly stood up and jumped back.

Only one person, he stared with blank eyes, subconsciously looking down at the cold kunai tip.

"When... when..."

After saying that, his body fell down and he was out of breath in an instant. This was his last words.

After he fell, Kato Dan appeared. He kindly explained, "Just now!"

Then, he turned his attention to the others.

As soon as they moved, Kato Dan analyzed their strength level.

'One Chunin, four Genin, so weak, how did they sneak in! ? '

Could it be that because of their weak strength, they easily deceived the border ninjas? !

This is possible, and hiring ninjas to protect caravans is a common method used by merchants.

But there is still a question, I have to ask!

He took out a new kunai again, his eyes fell on the rich Chunin, and asked in a cold tone: "Tell me, how did you deceive the border ninjas of Konoha!"

The rich Chunin looked at Kato Dan with an inexplicable expression, but the moonlight was blocked by the tree canopy, so Kato Dan couldn't see clearly.

"You are... the elite jonin of Konoha who has recently become famous, Kato Dan!!"

Kato Dan didn't care too much when he heard what the other party said. He had known his name for a long time and was on the blacklist of various countries.

It was not surprising that this person knew him.

"Your words are not what I want to hear!" With that, he disappeared again.

Only the campfire shook twice.

When it recovered again, two more genin collapsed to the ground.

'It's strange, with such little strength, how could they have the courage to go to the Konoha mine to save people? '

The Sand Village is one of the five major countries after all. Even if they don't want to use money to exchange people, they want to secretly intercept their own people. It's impossible to send only this few people! ?

For a moment, he smelled the smell of conspiracy, perhaps against himself.

His eyes condensed slightly, and he became very alert in his heart.

"There are only two of you, tell me!"

The guard was terrified, trembling, staring at the Chunin businessman!

In fact, he didn't know how to enter the border of Konoha. It seemed that like everyone else, the Chunin businessman handed the documents to the person checking, and they were let in without even looking at the supplies.

The only difference was that they did not go through the checkpoint of Konoha, but the checkpoint of the Daimyo of the Land of Fire.

It was a very normal process, but there was no need to think about it. The people on the other side would not believe it.

Because their identities were not normal, he subconsciously thought that the check of himself and others was not normal.

The Chunin businessman did not feel sad for the death of three Genin at all. Instead, after pulling away from a certain distance, the fear on his face turned into joy.

It was like a hunter seeing the prey.

"Kato Dan, you finally showed up, but you made us wait so long!"

Hearing this, Kato Dan's heart skipped a beat. Sure enough, there was a conspiracy!

He looked at the wealthy Chunin, but his ears were very alert to any disturbances around him.

"It seems that you are here for me!"

"Yes, the employer has put a bounty of 30 million taels on your head. How can we not be tempted!"

"Employer?! You... No... You are bounty ninjas?!"

In addition to the ninjas of the ninja village, there are also renegade ninjas who defected from the ninja village, and some lucky ones who picked up the [Chakra Refining Technique] and became wandering ninjas step by step.

Since the ninja world is very large, there are many such people, and naturally, there can be masters among them.

And these people make a living by the task of exchanging gold.

At first, Mirai thought that this exchange was opened by Orochimaru, but later he found out that it was not after he became his apprentice.

The wealthy Chunin did not answer, but did something that surprised Kato Dan.

He raised his hand suddenly and stabbed the only Genin to death with a kunai.

The guarding genin was stunned. He stared blankly at the kunai that pierced his chest, his mouth open."Why... why..."

His thoughts were also Kato Dan's thoughts.

For a moment, Kato Dan did not dare to move forward casually.

The other party was so fearless and killed his companions in cold blood. Obviously, he had some preparation.

If he rushed forward before knowing the other party's details, he would be in trouble.

The rich businessman looked at the person who fell to the ground limply, as if to give Kato Dan an explanation.

"It's okay to tell you. I'm not like the idiot in the novel who lets the other party fight to increase experience. If I have to fight, I will fight myself!"

Kato Dan: "!!!"

What kind of weird idea is this? !

Hearing this, the guarding ninja's eyes widened instantly, and he died without a breath.

He thought about what he would die for, but he never expected that it would be such a weird reason!
