Chapter 39: The Next Goal

In the shadow space, Sakura Haruno looked at the alarm clock in the corner, it was already night, and she was ready to start cultivating.

"Shadow Clone Technique!"

Sakura Haruno separated three shadow clones and nodded to them, letting them each go to various corners of the shadow space to practice.

After coming to the country of Kawano, Sakura Haruno found a way to improve her spiritual power in the secret scroll, meditation.

Yes, it's meditation, commonly known as meditation.

In the Secret Word Scroll, the Eye of Twilight is recorded. The prudent system of practice and the balanced doctrine of the Equilibrium sect.

The equilibrium doctrine of the Equilibrium sect is to "maintain the balance between the spiritual and material worlds", and the believers walk between the material and the spiritual, reconciling the conflict between the two sessions.

However, when the Equilibrium sect reached the Shen generation, the representatives of the new generation questioned this doctrine.

As a result, there was a split in the Equilibrium sect.

Raiding and slaughtering the sect with his followers and founding the Shadow Stream Sect, Akali openly questioned the new generation of Twilight Eyes, and decisively left the Sect of Equilibrium, even Kenan, the Yodeling enforcer also questioned the doctrine of Equilibrium.

Only Shen alone adheres to the teachings handed down from ancient times by the Balance Sect, guarding the balance between the spiritual and material worlds with a steel knife and a soul blade.

Of course, the above is just a brief introduction to Shen, and it has nothing to do with Haruno Sakura.

The Secret Scroll is rich and profound, much more difficult to understand than the scrolls of the other three, and Sakura Haruno has only learned one-hand meditation from it so far, which can improve mental power.

It was precisely because of the improvement of her spiritual power that Sakura Haruno dared to use her three shadow clones to cultivate the three scrolls of shadow, secret, and thunder at the same time.

However, even if she used meditation to improve her spiritual power, Haruno Sakura could only cultivate with a maximum of five shadow clones at the moment, and no matter more, she wouldn't be able to.

Therefore, Sakura Haruno became more and more suspicious, if there was something wrong with her when she was crossing, otherwise why could Naruto use dozens of shadow clones to cultivate at once? She's too much of a difference with Naruto.

A lot of Akali's I character scrolls are about physical arts and assassination techniques, so Sakura Haruno decided to learn it through her own hands-on practice. After all, the shadow clone only transmits memory, not muscle memory, and for physical arts, muscle memory is very important.

Compared to the self-word scroll, the other three scrolls are more about learning theoretical knowledge, so Haruno Sakura chose to use the shadow clone to practice.

Sakura Haruno let the shadow clone study in the shadow space, and she sat down on the spot and began to meditate.

She hadn't slept for ten days in a row, meditating instead of sleeping every day, and the next day she was even better than sleeping.

Nothing else happened that night until the next morning.

Sakura Haruno got up early, untied the shadow clone, and came out of the shadow space while feeling the impact of the information flow, packed up, and put on the clothes she wore when she went to the bounty exchange before, ready to exchange Yuji Kimura's head for a bounty.

According to the latest bounty order, Yuji Kimura's bounty has increased to five million, and after deducting the handling fee of the bounty exchange, Sakura Haruno can get about four and a half million.

Sakura Haruno came to the bounty exchange and handed Yuji Kimura's head and forehead guard to the masked man, and after the masked man confirmed, he took out the booklet and crossed out Yuji Kimura's name, took out a box from the cabinet and handed it to Sakura Haruno.

Sakura Haruno didn't answer, but said lightly: "I want Ichiro Kagawa's information, as detailed as possible." ”

Kagawa Ichiro, Haruno Sakura's next target, a bounty of two million taels, is in the territory of Kawanokuni, but I don't know where it is.

The masked man was silent for a moment before he spoke: "One million, there is no guarantee that the information is accurate. ”

"Yes." Sakura Haruno nodded, not paying attention to the masked man's second sentence.

Not guaranteeing the accuracy of the information is a basic criterion of the bounty exchange, after all, those who come out to mix, especially those like Haruno Sakura who wander around the world, have some hole cards to defend themselves, so as not to die too ugly.

Therefore, bounty exchanges never provide guaranteed accurate information, and you don't want to buy it anyway.

However, in most cases, the discrepancy between the information and the reality of the bounty exchange is not too large, and the credibility is relatively high.

The masked man took the box back, took a booklet from the cabinet, flipped through it, pulled out a yellowed piece of paper and placed it on the table, then took another box from under the counter and put it on the table, and pushed the two things to her with both hands.

Sakura Haruno took the money and yellow paper, and turned around and left without leaving a moment. Outside, she found a secluded cul-de-sac, stepped into the shadows, and returned to the inn through the shadow space.

Back in the room, taking off the weight of her body, Sakura Haruno sat down at the table, took out the yellow paper and looked at it.

Ichiro Kagawa, male, 20 years old, was born in Yunyin Village......

A piece of yellow paper is densely filled with small characters, and almost all of them have been recorded from the birth of Ichiro Kagawa to the present, which can be said to be very detailed.

But Sakura Haruno watched it for a long time, but put down the paper with a headache.

Although there are a lot of things on this yellow paper, they are very detailed, but most of them are trivial matters, and there are not many descriptions of his strength, and some of them are still vague.

Sakura Haruno frowned and thought about it, and took out her paper and pen, intending to sort out the information.

While reading the yellow paper, she recorded the descriptions related to Kagawa Ichiro's combat power, and then arranged them one by one.

He used another piece of paper to extract the important information from those trivial matters, and then analyzed his personality through this information, and recorded the results of the analysis on paper.

The job sounded easy, but Sakura Haruno had been doing it all day, and by the time she was done, it was already dark and she hadn't eaten yet.

Fortunately, she prepared some reserve dry food in the shadow space, and she could fill her stomach as soon as she could, so she went to the shadow space to cultivate.

The next day, Sakura Haruno got up early in the morning, took a bath in the bathhouse provided by the inn, changed her clothes, and went out after finding the boss to settle the bill.

Ichiro Kagawa is not in this town, and there is no need for Sakura Haruno to stay here anymore, it is time to leave.

Today, Sakura Haruno was dressed in civilian clothes, with a black mask on her face, calmly walking through the chaotic neighborhood and leaving from the east gate of the town.

About two hours after Sakura Haruno left the town, a girl with a cold face walked into the town.

The girl didn't hide her face, looking at her height and appearance, she was about the same age as Sakura Haruno.

Dressed in a kimono, wearing a hat and a long knife at her waist, the girl walked down the street expressionlessly, ignoring some ill-intentioned glances around her, as if wandering aimlessly on the street.

The girl shuttled through the streets and alleys, and finally someone couldn't help but quietly follow, wanting to try the girl's catties.

The kimono girl seemed to be lost, and after walking for a while, she stopped at a dead end.

"Hey, little girl, are you lost?" A slightly obscene voice came from behind the girl.

The kimono girl turned around expressionlessly and looked at the three strange-shaped people behind her.

A tall and thin man with a long knife in his hand, a tall man with a large knife on his shoulder, and a stocky man with two daggers in his hands.

"If you get lost, do you want us to show you the way? Hahahaha! Seeing that the kimono girl did not speak, the short and fat little man burst into laughter.

"Do you know, Yuji Kimura?" The kimono girl asked lightly.

"Huh?" The three of them looked stunned for a moment, and then they were a little annoyed, they came to rob the sex, so they didn't give face?

"Don't talk nonsense, give you a chance, come with us obediently, we can let you choose a comfortable place, otherwise, it's not us who will suffer from doing things here!" The tall and thin man said with a sneer.

The kimono girl's right hand was placed on the long knife at her waist, and the three of them looked tense when they saw this, and they were secretly vigilant.

Scold~

The long knife is unsheathed, the cold light shines on the eyes, and blood is splashed!

The warm blood of his two companions splashed on the face of the short and fat man, and he stared at the girl in front of him with wide eyes, and his heart was frightened, and he did not dare to move.

The girl held a knife on the neck of the short and fat little man, and said coldly, "Where is Yuji Kimura!" ”

He ...... He's dead! The stocky little man spoke with a crying voice.

Laugh at!

For!

"Ahh

The long knife stabbed the stocky little man in the shoulder, piercing him and pinning him to the wall.

"What did you say?!" The expression of the kimono girl fluctuated for the first time, and she stared at the short and fat little man with an angry expression, and said, "Who killed it!" ”

The short and fat little man looked pained, but he didn't dare not answer when he heard the question of the kimono girl, and hurriedly said: "I, I don't know, when we got up yesterday morning, we saw a lot of corpses on the street, and then I heard that his bounty was canceled, and I learned that he was also dead!" ”

After hearing this, the kimono girl's face became more and more pale, her hand moved slightly, and she solved the short and fat little man with a knife, and turned around and left the dead end.

Soon after, the kimono girl appeared at the bounty exchange and slapped a wooden plaque on the exchange's counter.

"Who killed Yuji Kimura?" The kimono girl asked coldly.

"Two hundred thousand." The masked man said lightly.

The kimono girl threw out a scroll and said coldly, "There is a million in it." ”

The masked man picked up the scroll, and the seal opened, revealing a small box bursting out of it.

"Newcomer, Blood Sakura."

"Where did he go?"

"Five hundred thousand."

"Say!"

"To the east of the town, Bunzen."

"Her profile."

"One million and three million."

Syllable!

The kimono girl threw out another scroll and looked at the masked man coldly: "Give it to me!" ”

The masked man didn't pay attention to the girl's eyes, calmly picked up the scroll, opened the scroll, and confirmed the number before taking out the record book from the cabinet, pulling out a piece of yellow paper and handing it to her.

The kimono girl took the yellow paper, put away the wooden sign on the table, and turned away decisively.

On the other side, Sakura Haruno kept hurrying and finally arrived at her destination, Bunzen Prefecture, before lunch.

At this time, she didn't know that while she was eyeing others, someone was also eyeing her.
