Chapter 65: The Gift of Farewell
Leaving Konoha Village, according to the scroll map given by Yoshihide, Shinnosuke quickly found the location of the black market.
In fact, the name "black market" is not apt.
As far as the eye can see, what Shinnosuke can see is an empty group of buildings.
With residential areas, office buildings, and a criss-cross shopping street, it looks a bit like the center of a small town.
However, unlike a normal town, the current town is not only empty, but also desolate.
There is a special entrance to the empty building complex, and above the entrance hangs a nameplate diagonally, with two words on the plaque -
Empty space.
Entering the interior of the empty area from the entrance, the scene inside is more desolate than from the outside.
On the street, various stalls are placed horizontally, confirming that the empty area was also a prosperous place in the past.
It took a quarter of an hour for Shinnosuke to reach the end of emptiness.
There is a closed passage at the end, and when you look from the outside, the passage is a bit like an unknown deep alley, and a bit like an empty warehouse.
Shinnosuke put away the map given by Yoshihide, "According to the map, the black market merchant is here. He looked up at the claustrophobic passage and muttered to himself.
Looking left and right, he saw that there were no iconic signs nearby, and in desperation, Shinnosuke could only walk into the passage.
After entering the passage, the repetitive scene keeps appearing in front of you.
Even if Shinnosuke has a good memory, he can't even tell which way is which.
It feels like the whole inside of the passage is a complete labyrinth.
Shinnosuke even wondered if he had fallen for some illusion.
Just as he was guessing, a strange voice suddenly came from above his head:
"Who are you? Get out of here! This is not the place for you! ”
Shinnosuke looked up, and he followed the voice, only to see a black figure flashing by the iron beam on the picture.
Although his eyes caught the black figure, he didn't see exactly what the black figure was.
The only thing that is certain is that the black figure above the head that can speak is not human.
Shinnosuke recalled what his father, Yoshihide, had said before, and he tried not to clash with the original inhabitants here, "I'm here to pick up the goods. ”
"Let's go! There's no going to trade with someone like you here! Another voice sounded, but this one was a little softer than the one before.
"Someone like me?" The first time Shinnosuke was called that, he felt a little depressed.
"Since you don't want to come out to see me, then I'll come to you myself."
He said this, and then his figure flashed, and he disappeared from the spot.
Because Shinnosuke is so fast, it looks like it's evaporating from the world.
When he reappeared, he was already standing on the iron beam above the claustrophobic passage.
On the iron beam, in addition to Shinnosuke, there are two guys lying there.
They are two cats dressed in different colors.
One was dressed in light blue and the other in red.
can also speak people, and at a glance you know that it is not an ordinary cat.
Just when Shinnosuke was secretly surprised, the cat in light blue suddenly lifted its two forelimbs and stood up like a human.
"Boy! I've warned you! Leave now, if you don't, then you're welcome! "It looks like it's going to be fried.
As it spoke, the red-clad cat prepared for battle.
"Why don't you listen to me?" Shinnosuke spread his hands, and he looked a little speechless.
As soon as he finished speaking, two cats on the other side attacked him at the same time.
Only then did Shinnosuke know that the two cats that fought with it were all ninja cats.
Ninja cats are fast and attack aggressively.
However, for Shinnosuke, the strength of the two guys on the opposite side is simply not enough.
Faced with the left pressure and right pounce of the two ninja cats, Shinnosuke easily dodged.
The battle lasted about three minutes, and Shinnosuke gradually lost his patience.
"Smack!"
He kicked the blue-clothed ninja in the abdomen, and slammed the red-clothed ninja in the direction of the fall.
Rumble!
The two cats fell heavily to the ground.
If it weren't for Shinnosuke's mercy, I'm afraid those two guys would have been kicked into a pulp long ago.
Even though the two cats were not killed, they did not get up for half a day after falling to the ground.
Shinnosuke leaped down, jumping from the iron beam above the passage to the floor of the passage.
"You two fellows," he crouched down and looked at the two half-dead cats, "if you can speak, why can't you understand human speech?" I've told you very clearly, I'm here to pick up the goods, and I even shot at me! ”
"Isn't it true that in the rules of your black market, the customer is not God?" Shinnosuke had some broken thoughts.
He was going to educate these two ninja cats and teach them some principles of being human, but what he didn't expect was that a shuriken suddenly flew behind him.
Although he was attacked from behind, Shinnosuke could easily dodge it.
He did a backflip and effortlessly dodged the shuriken that swooped in behind him.
Before his feet could hit the ground, dozens of shuriken appeared densely above his head.
Shinnosuke forcibly shifts his position, and he staggers his original landing spot and jumps somewhere else.
However, three shuriken seemed to have eyes, tracking his movements.
It's not that the shuriken can really track, but because the three shuriken were crooked by other shuriken, and as a result, the three shuriken chased Shinnosuke like tracking bullets.
Woohoo!
I only heard three sharp whistling sounds, and then, Shinnosuke's body was hit by the three shurikens.
Boom!
A slight explosion was loud in the claustrophobic passage, and it was no one else, it was Shinnosuke who had been hit by three shuriken.
Shinnosuke then turned into a cloud of smoke and slowly dispersed around him.
It turns out that it wasn't Shinnosuke's body.
Shadow clone stand-in!
As for Shinnosuke's body, where is it?
In fact, his essence has fallen behind the man who attacked him.
"Cat lovers?"
Just as Shinnosuke was guessing the identity of the attacker, she suddenly saw the family pattern behind the attacker.
The people of Konoha Village?
Shinnosuke stopped just in time, and he didn't hurt the attacker.
Looking at the attacker himself, he was very small and did not appear to be an adult.
Shinnosuke stood behind the attacker, who was almost as tall as the other two.
"This guy...... You should be no more than five years old. ”
Shinnosuke was surprised.
He raised his eyes again and looked at the back of the attacker, and suddenly felt a little familiar......
