In the Land of Fire, in a border town, all members of the White Fang Squad arrived here safely after making changes.

It's a relatively prosperous town, but its prosperity is based on the war between Konoha and Sunagakure, as the main consumers here are Konoha ninjas who have just escaped from the battlefield.

The most popular shops here are izakaya and massage parlors.

Kirito saw many Konoha ninjas coming in and out of these izakaya and massage parlors here, and most of the people who came out had relieved and relaxed expressions on their faces.

"Let's separate here for the time being, teacher, I still have something to do."

Hachiki Sakushige took the three of Kirito into the town, then checked into a hot spring inn, and after soaking in the hot springs and having a hearty lunch, he said to the three with a smile.

"What are you going to do? I guess I'm going to do something inappropriate for children like those Konoha ninjas in town. ”

Kirito heard this and quipped.

"Ahem, cough~, children don't have to worry about adults."

Qimu Shuomao's face suddenly turned embarrassed, and he coughed a few times suddenly, and then said with a straight face.

Seeing this, Rope Tree looked at Hachiki Shuo Shigeru with a blank expression, and he couldn't hear what Kirito was saying at all.

But he was very interested in what Kirito said was not suitable for children, thinking that as long as he did these things, he could grow up quickly, and immediately said, "Hachiki-sensei, can you take me there?" ”

Chizuru gave Hachiki Sakumo and Tsunaki a disdainful look at him at this time.

"No, the three of you are free to move around the town, but you have to act together, and the rope tree must listen to Kirito's words, don't act without permission, that's it, I'll go first."

Qimu Shuomao sternly refused the rope tree's request, and then admonished the three of them.

As soon as the words fell, he disappeared in an instant, and quietly used the instantaneous technique to leave.

"Stingy."

The naïve rope tree saw that Qimu Shuomao didn't take him to play, and said dissatisfiedly.

Then, he suddenly thought of a good idea, and immediately used the multiple shadow clone technique, creating more than ten shadow clones, and then took out his wallet and distributed the money to them.

"Please, everyone, let's taste all the food here."

After the rope tree finished dividing the money, he said excitedly to the shadow clones.

"Oh~"

The shadow clones of Rope Tree immediately responded in unison, and then ran out of the hot spring inn one after another, and began to embark on a culinary journey together in this bustling town.

"Kirito, Chizuru, let's go to the town for some fun too."

Waiting for the shadow clones to leave, Rope Tree said to Kirito and Chizuru on the side.

"Okay, it's rare that you don't have to continue to eat sand in the desert, you really should relax."

Kirito agreed.

Chizuru originally planned to refuse Rope Tree's invitation because she planned to stay here and continue her cultivation, but when she heard Kirito say this, she stopped insisting.

Although the days in the Devil's Desert were short, the pressure was very high, and the short period of ten days made her feel like months had passed.

"Let's go play with it."

Chizuru thought to herself.

But the next moment, she remembered one thing, and decisively used the shadow clone technique to create a shadow clone.

As soon as the shadow clone came out, she left without saying a word.

Seeing this, Kirito narrowed his eyes, didn't say anything, and began to take the hands of Rope Tree and Chizuru and leave the inn.

While the three of Kirito were playing around in the town, the Changing Technique entered the toilet of a tavern in the town, and when he twisted a faucet, a secret door was opened, and a smell of corpse and antiseptic came out of it.

Qimu Shuomao entered the inside without changing his face, this is the gold exchange office in the town, and it is a place where bounty hunters often come.

In addition to being a Konoha ninja, his second identity is a veteran bounty hunter, but his bounty hunter identity is a wandering ninja vest called Nightblade that he transformed after the change.

"I didn't expect the person who came in to be Mr. Nightblade, it's really a disappointment."

The person in charge of the gold exchange office was a middle-aged man with a toad glass, and when he saw the changed appearance of Qimu Shuomao, he immediately showed a surprised expression, and then said respectfully.

"Don't talk nonsense, I need information on the unknown source of funds."

Qimu Shuomao glanced at the middle-aged man in the toad mirror with cold eyes, and said coldly.

In addition to providing bounty hunters with the ability to exchange bounties, the exchange also has information trading.

The backers behind these gold exchange houses are basically the high-level of various countries, holding many secrets of the ninja world, and there are many eyeliners under them, and the intelligence network is very developed, as long as there is enough money, bounty hunters can get the information they want from the gold exchange houses.

Hagi Shuomao got a new mission from the three generations, and found that the three generations did not give any useful information, and his first thought was to try his luck at the gold exchange office, to see if he could find the target he was going to hunt this time from the gold exchange office.

Among the many S-class missions he has completed over the years, the information provided by the gold exchange is very crucial, saving him a lot of time and energy.

"I'm so sorry, I don't have any information you want here, Mr. Nightblade, in fact, we would like to know that if Mr. Nightblade has a chance to get this information, we will be more than happy to buy it."

When the middle-aged man heard this, he immediately replied.

In the past year, there have been many more large amounts of gold in the market, which have long attracted the attention of the bigwigs behind the gold exchange, and many bigwigs want to figure out where Sha Yin got so much gold.

However, Sand Cain hid this secret very well, and deliberately released a lot of false news, completely muddying the waters, and killing many powerful bounty hunters and enemy ninjas.

In order not to damage their reputation, the exchange house now does not dare to sell relevant information.

Although Qimu Shuomao had expected this result for a long time, he was still a little disappointed, and sighed secretly: "This mission is really tricky. ”

This mission didn't even know who the target was, which was really a headache for Sakushige.

From the current point of view, the only way for the White Fang team to complete the mission is to infiltrate the Sand Hidden Village to find the mission target.

Suddenly, Qimu Shuomao noticed the expression on the face of the middle-aged man in the toad mirror who wanted to speak and stopped, he immediately took out a pile from his body and put it on the table, then pushed it in front of the other party, and continued to ask, "Do you have anything you want to add." ”

"Recently, a new force has appeared in the intelligence black market, their intelligence force is very strong, and a lot of the intelligence business of the exchange house has been robbed by them, maybe they will have what you need as an adult, but their charges are a little strange."

The middle-aged man in the toad mirror quietly put away the money, and then whispered.

"Where can I find them?"

When Qimu Shuomao heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up and he asked.

He was not afraid that the intelligence merchant would charge strange fees, but he was afraid that the intelligence merchant would not have the information he needed.

The middle-aged man in the toad mirror did not continue to answer Qimu Shuomao's question immediately, but only showed a smile to Qimu Shuomao, and the essence of his right hand and his thumb rubbed against each other.

Seeing this, Qimu Shuomao couldn't help but feel dissatisfied with the greed of the person in front of him, and a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes.

But in the end, he didn't choose to do anything to this man here.

If he kills the other party, the exchange house will only lose a greedy branch head, and he will become the blacklist of the exchange house and lose the intelligence network of the exchange house.

Soon, Sakumo Hagi left the gold exchange.

The middle-aged man in the toad mirror watched the door of the gold exchange house close again, the smile on his face disappeared in an instant, and then he continued to lie lazily on the table, and fell asleep in an instant.

But the next moment, he woke up again and said in a bit of a daze, "I just fell asleep?" ”

Half an hour later, Sakumo entered a pharmacy and asked the boss to buy four herbs, and he was invited to a dark room in the store by the boss on the grounds that one of the herbs was not here.

There wasn't much in the darkroom, just a table and two chairs, and a broken candle burning on the table.

"Your Excellency, please wait here for a while, our person in charge will be here soon."

The owner of the pharmacy said to Sakushige Hagi with a blank face, and then quickly left, closing the door of the dark room.

Qimu Shuomao is a bold artist, and he is not afraid of the other party's tricks, so he sits on one of the chairs and waits.

After a while, the door to the dark room opened again, and a woman with long red hair walked in.

"Redhead, and this powerful chakra, this woman is from the Vortex Clan?"

Hachiki Shuo Shigeru looked at the red-haired woman, feeling the terrifying amount of chakra from the other party's body, and thought in surprise.

The amount of chakra in the red-haired woman's body has far surpassed the level of elite upper ninja.

Although the other party did not feel threatening to him, he could see that the red-haired woman in front of him was an elite ninja.

The head of a branch of an unknown intelligence organization is actually an elite ninja, and it is very likely that he is still a member of the Uzumaki clan, so it seems that the forces behind this mysterious intelligence organization are indeed not simple,

The red-haired woman wore a delicate silver mask with a delicate chin exposed, and she quickly sat down opposite Hachiki Shuo Shigeru and asked, "What information do you want?" ”

"The unknown source of the funds behind the sand hide?"

Hachiki Shuo Shigeru didn't talk nonsense, and immediately said the information he wanted.

When the red-haired woman heard this, she was silent for a moment, then she used her psychic spell to summon a scroll, then opened it, and replied, "We have the information you want to ask, but you need to sign this contract to tell the truth." ”

At this time, Qimu Shuomao's eyes were already fixed on the open scroll on the table, which was an incomparably complex sealing circle.

In his eyes, he could only see that this was some kind of contract sealing technique with strong binding force.

"What is this?"

Qimu Shuomao said coldly.

If the other party did not explain the contents of the sealing technique, it would be impossible for him to sign it.

"Please rest assured, this is just an equal contract for the Grim Reaper to act as a notary, and I will also write my name on it with blood, and then tell you the true information, in exchange, you will need to provide us with a piece of information when we need it."

The red-haired woman said truthfully.

As soon as she finished speaking, she bit her index finger and took the lead in writing her name on it.

"Ryoko Uzumaki, as expected, is a member of the Uzumaki clan."

Sakumo Hachiki looked at the name written by the red-haired woman on the scroll, and then wondered if he really wanted to write his name on it.

He and the red-haired woman were only meeting for the first time, and he had no sense of trust at all, and once the other party was lying to him, the sealing technique on this scroll was not at all the kind of equal contract that the other party said had the Grim Reaper sign as a notary, then he would fall into the pit.

But the next moment, a gust of gloomy wind suddenly appeared in the dark room, and the candle flame in front of Qimu Shuomao suddenly turned dark blue.

I saw that a chakra emerged from Ryoko Uzumaki's body at this time, and it was transported to the sealing technique on the scroll through his fingers.

Soon, an illusory figure appeared in front of Qimu Shuomao.

It was a demon dressed in white, with purple skin and a terrifying face, and two red horns on its head, and a short knife in his mouth, like the legendary Grim Reaper.

The white-clothed demon was obviously wise, and its eyes first glanced at Ryoko Uzumaki, and then at Hachiki Shuomao.

Qimu Shuomao was looked at by the other party, and he instantly felt a creepy feeling, giving birth to a strong sense of threat.

"Your Excellency, please rest assured, Lord Death will not attack anyone who has not broken the contract."

Ryoko Uzumaki saw that Qimu Shuomao looked like he was facing a great enemy, and said comfortingly.

Hachiki Shuo Shigeru didn't speak, his eyes continued to stare at the god of death, so big that if the god of death made any rash move, he immediately shot to kill Ryoko Uzumaki, who summoned the god of death.

But in fact, as Ryoko Uzumaki said, the Grim Reaper did not make any further movements, just quietly suspended in mid-air between the two.

Seeing that the god of death was slow to act, Hachiki Shuo Shigeru finally confirmed that what Ryoko Uzumaki said was true, as well as the authenticity of the sealing scroll in front of him.

"This organization is really not simple, there must be a powerful ninja who is proficient in sealing techniques behind it, and they can actually create a contract sealing technique that uses the god of death as a witness."

Hagi Shuo Shigeru shifted his gaze back to the scroll, becoming more and more jealous of the forces behind Ryoko Uzumaki.

But he didn't have time to dig deep into the forces behind Ryoko Uzumaki right now, and he continued to be silent for a moment, afraid of his index finger, and then wrote his real name on the scroll.

After the name was written, Sakumo Hagi instantly found himself being targeted by death again, and then a heart-piercing pain appeared from his body.

But the pain disappeared in a moment.

"It turns out that Your Excellency is Konoha White Fang, and you really have admired the name for a long time."

Ryoko Uzumaki was surprised to see the name written on the scroll by Sakushige Hachiki.

"You can say it."

Hachiki Sakushige was not interested in Ryoko Uzumaki's compliment, and said coldly.

This Grim Reaper's contract is too evil, and he just wants to get information and leave quickly.

"Of course."

Ryoko Uzumaki said with a smile, and then told what she knew about the source of the unknown funds in the sand.

As Ryoko Uzumaki revealed more and more information, the expression on Hagi Shuomao's face became more and more solemn.

。。。

In the evening, in the hot spring inn above the town, the White Fang team gathers in a room to discuss things.

"That's probably the content of the mission, do you have any doubts?"

Qimu Shuomao said with a serious face.

After returning from the mysterious intelligence organization, he thought about it for a long time, and finally chose to share all the hard-won information with the three Kirito.

For example, this mission is likely to be blocked by the top force of the Sand Hidden Village, the third generation of the Wind Shadow, and the siege of many Sand Hidden elite ninjas, once the mission fails, the chance of escape is very low.

"We've only been on a mission for less than a month, and three generations of adults are asking us to carry out such a mission, isn't it a bit too high to think of us?"

After listening to the content of the new mission, Chizuru stared at Hachiki Shuomao with a frosty face and said.

Just kidding, let the White Fang team go deep into the Sand Hidden Village to assassinate the Sand Hidden Great Gold Lord, who is very likely to be protected by the Wind Shadow, is this something that the White Fang Team can do with their current ability.

Even if they do, will they still have the life to leave alive?

Once the Wind Shadow is assassinated, several of them will definitely be pursued by Sand Hide's frenzied pursuit, or the kind that will not die.

A large part of the reason why their White Fang team has been able to get away with the pursuit of the sand is that they have flexibly used guerrilla tactics and never stayed in one place for a long time, and now let them take the initiative to break into the enemy's base camp, completely giving up their advantages to fight the enemy.

And the shadow clone she sent out during the day had already learned about the recent events in Konoha from some of the town's clansmen, and realized that this mission was most likely a conspiracy.

Chizuru is a great ninja, but not a ninja who would be willing to die, at least the current Konoha is not worth her death.

This kind of task that obviously has the nature of sending people to death, she is unwilling to do it.

"Was this mission difficult? Isn't it just to go to the Sand Hidden Village to kill a person, Kirito has the art of spiritualization, and it is completely possible to sneak into the Sand Hidden Village to kill the target, we only need to guard Kirito's body at that time, and Kirito has a Suzaku puppet, so we can leave safely even if the mission fails. ”

Rope Tree had a big heart, and he didn't realize how difficult this task was, but said excitedly.

Hachiki Sakumo just said that as long as their White Fang team can complete this mission, then they will become the heroes who end the war between Konoha and Sand Hide.

If he completes this, he will definitely be able to take another big step forward from becoming Hokage.

"Hmph, as far as you're smart, the information that Kirito's spiritualization technique has been leaked a long time ago, and Sha Yin saw that he knew this information, wouldn't they be guarding against Kirito's spiritualization technique? It's so light, what you just said is completely to let Kirito's life test whether Sand Yin will have a way to restrain the spirit technique, what a fool. ”

When Chizuru heard Rope Tree's words, she immediately scolded angrily, glaring at Rope Tree with her writing wheel eyes.

Rope tree didn't expect Chizuru to react so much, he was suddenly startled, he instinctively got angry, but when he heard Chizuru's words, he disappeared all of a sudden, revealing a guilty expression.

He really didn't think about it that much just now, if what Chizuru said was right, then what he just suggested was harming his good brother Kirito.

Thinking that his good brother might be killed by him, Rope immediately apologized to Kirito with a weak heart: "I'm sorry, Kirito, it's me who didn't think about it, don't mind, I don't mean anything else." ”

"I know, I didn't feel at ease."

Kirito said with a smile, casually dissolving this unpleasantness.

Then, he turned his head to look at Qimu Shuomao, and asked: "Qimu teacher, what do you think, the task that the three generations of adults have given us this time is not not easy, if what you just said is true, this task is obviously beyond our ability, and not to mention success, the information we have now is very limited, and it is impossible to complete it in a short time." ”

Luo Sha's Magnetic Escape Placer Gold is definitely a top secret in Sha Yin, and only a few core high-level people know about it, and Konoha now doesn't know that the source of Sha Yin's unknown funds is Luo Sha.

And the information that Hachiki Shuo Shigeru got from Ryoko Uzumaki was actually what he instructed Ryoko Uzumaki to tell the other party, and the content did not mention that Raksha was the big gold lord, but only that Raksha was the Magnetic Escape Ninja who awakened Magnetic Escape and Ashing Gold and was now protected by the three generations of Wind Shadows.

The reason why Kirito didn't want to use Ryoko Uzumaki's hand to tell Hachiki Sakushige the complete information was actually to hope that Hachiki Sakushige would retreat from the difficulties and prevent the White Fang team from carrying out such a dangerous mission.

He is now a skilled person who is bold, especially when Lei Dun has reached level 5 and has mastered the art of spiritualization, he is completely confident that he will be able to escape even if he is exposed in Shayin Village.

But the two of them are not necessarily, the two lack a strong means of escape, and once they fall into the encirclement of the enemy in the Sand Hidden Village, they will definitely be dead.

Seeing that Chizuru and Kirito were reluctant to carry out a new mission, Hachiki Shuo Shigeru sighed in his heart, and then said expressionlessly: "The task must be carried out, but ......"
