Chapter Eighty-Four: Stealing Food

And so it was settled.

The Uchiha followed the three of them out of the cave and walked along the forest, carefully observing their surroundings along the way, but found no traps.

And that's not all.

There is not even a trace of a ninja, and all signs seem to indicate that the rain ninja here has indeed been transferred.

Stomp ......

Because the three of Yahiko are not ninjas, the speed of their progress is very slow, and the Uchiha Tsukasa feels the chakra in his body as he walks, especially the annihilation of the blood in his left hand.

"It doesn't seem like anything special, or is the increase in cell activity unrelated to annihilation?"

I wanted to use the Chidoriba mode to confirm, but I was afraid that this was in the territory of an enemy country, and if it was exposed, it would be worth the loss, so I pressed this impulse all the way.

After about half an hour, the dense woods disappeared, revealing a flat and open land.

Not far away, there was a city standing that was black overall, the same city that Uchiha had seen before.

The surface was silent, silently following the three of them, but there was no imaginary difficult scene, and after some body search, they entered the city smoothly.

Then, under the leadership of Yahiko, he skillfully walked through the crowd and found a place where the vendors gathered.

It is a spacious street, although it is called a commercial street, but in reality it is not very busy, the ground is full of standing water, the pedestrians are yellow and thin, and the occasional appearance of neatly dressed people will cause a riot.

"Not far from here is the border, and if other places only need to provide supplies, not only do they need to provide supplies, but they will even be sent to the battlefield to build fortifications if necessary."

Seeing that the Uchiha was a little puzzled, Yahiko explained.

After all, the country of rain is a country, even if the main force of the war is the ninja, but everything is handed over to the rain ninja, therefore, these people have become the so-called victims, because of the close location, so people are often captured, and thus die on the battlefield.

Squeak squeak......

A gray-covered mouse crawled past them, looking scrawny, and before they had gone far, they were grabbed by an old man with green eyes, and then stuffed it directly into his mouth.

Crunch.

The blood slid down the corners of his mouth, and the mouse was quickly swallowed by him, and the surroundings seemed to be accustomed to this situation, not only did no one stop it, but they all regretted that they were too late to start just now, and they were actually preempted by an old man.

With a green light in their eyes, this group of people who had been hungry for a few days quickly targeted Yahiko and his party, and when Yahiko saw this, he immediately took out kunai and aimed at them, which stopped this group of people.

"Let's go."

With a calm look in his eyes, Yahiko said to the three people behind him, and then held the kunai and retreated step by step.

With every step back, the crowd on the opposite side seemed to be agitated, making the four of them feel as if they were being targeted by wolves.

Cautiously retreated, without alarming the other party, until they were completely away from the place just now, the three of them finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"What's going on with those people?"

The Uchiha was fine, although he was startled by the eyes of the group at first, but then he regained his composure, and immediately after walking out, he asked Yahiko.

Before Yahiko could speak, Nagato replied first:

"There wasn't enough food to eat, and they didn't want to go outside for fear of being eaten by wild beasts, and over time it became like this."

This makes sense, if the size of the five great powers is a wooden barrel, then the country of rain is nothing more than a basin at most.

It may be very explosive in the short term, but as long as the war is delayed to the point of competing for national strength, it will be weak in succession, and the domestic economy will not be able to keep up with the attrition of the war.

"Don't talk about that, let's go another way."

Yahiko interrupted Nagato's words, and then put away the kunai, because the group of people couldn't go back the way they came, and if they wanted to get back to the shopping street, they had to take another route.

窸窸窣窣窣......

Walking all the way down the alley, turning around, the Uchiha Division was already blindfolded at the back, and he only knew to follow the people in front of him.

Yahiko, on the contrary, re-charts a route every time he steals food in order to obtain food, so that he does not catch the stall owner who follows him, so he is very familiar with the route here.

"Here we are."

After walking through several alleys in succession, Yahiko finally stopped, spoke softly, and then signaled for silence before everyone could speak.

Poking his head out cautiously, Yahiko vaguely remembered that there should be a small stall nearby, because he was almost caught up with the food here last time, so he hadn't been here for a while.

Observing carefully, it didn't take long for Yahiko to determine his target, retract his head, turn around and gesture to the three of them:

"I'll go out first to lure away the stall owner, and you can take the opportunity to get food."

Because he didn't speak, Uchiha didn't understand Yahiko's words, but Nagato understood what he meant at the first time, and suddenly hesitated, wanting to persuade Yahiko to change his plan.

However, Yahiko didn't give him this chance, and after seeing Nagato understand what he meant, he immediately ran out, sneakily came to the stall, and then, taking advantage of no one's attention, quickly took a piece of bread and ran away.

"Damn stinky little ghost!"

The vendor behind him soon found out, and after seeing Yahiko's figure, he instantly remembered the thief before, gritted his teeth and roared, hurriedly asked his wife to guard it, and then picked up a rolling pin and chased after him!

Whew......

The vendor was fast, and on the premise of holding a rolling pin, he quickly disappeared from Nagato's field of vision.

"One second, two seconds ......"

Yahiko had already done it and didn't want to waste the opportunity he had created.

Muttering incessantly, Nagato nervously looked at the place where the vendor had disappeared, and after confirming that he would not be back anytime soon, he turned his gaze back to the stall, planning the timing of his move.

After the previous episode, the eyes of the surrounding vendors became vigilant, it seemed that such a thing had happened more than once, and on the vendor stall that had been stolen before, a woman appeared, middle-aged, who didn't seem to react yet, muttering something while walking.

"It's now!"

Nagato turned around and signaled, Xiao Nan immediately knew, and then the two rushed out at the same time, and before everyone could react, they suddenly took several pieces of bread from the vendor's stall.

Don't dare to take too much, because taking too much means not being able to run fast, and in this case, if you are caught by the vendors, you will definitely be beaten up!

Wow -

"Division, let's go!"

When Nagato passed by Uchihaji's side, he didn't forget to quickly pull him and pull Uchihaji, who was still in a state of confusion, to run all the way.

With humidity in the air, Nagato pulled Tsukasa Uchiha. Xiao Nan was at the front, and he was about to run out of sight.

Knowing this time, only a vendor reacted, slapped the table angrily, turned his head and took out a spatula and chased after him.

Subsequently, others also reacted and scolded angrily:

"Damn bastards! Every time I come here, this time I have to give them a little color! ”

"This month is already the third time, if it continues like this, what will happen to our business!"

"If it weren't for the ninja-sama no more, I would have to fix these little bastards!"

The scolding came and went, and it was obvious that the traders here hated several people to the core, and if it weren't for the ninja's absence, maybe they would have written a joint letter long ago, asking the ninjas to arrest this group of thieves.
