When I set off on this day, the Fog Hidden Ninja Team who took over the escort mission looked at the ghost lantern Shui Yue who suddenly appeared, and it was full of question marks for a while.

"What is this kid here for? We don't need cannon fodder for this task, right? ”

Hearing this, Ghost Lantern Shui Yue immediately became angry, "Hey! Who do you say is cannon fodder? Don't look down on people! I'm already a mid-ninja! ”

Judging from this promotion age, although Shui Yue is not as good as his brother, he can actually be regarded as a little genius.

What's even more ironic is that he is even younger than his future big brother Sasuke.

The two pillars who witnessed the destruction of the whole clan and then angrily opened the single hook jade lost again.

But even if he emphasized that he was a middle ninja, the eyes of everyone around him at this moment were still a little playful.

Because this is an S-class mission after all, there is no one in the squad present who is not a shinobi.

The captain at the head couldn't see his expression for a while, but an indifferent shark face still looked at the ghost light Shui Yue uncomfortable.

The moment he saw this captain, Hinata Inaba couldn't help but be a little surprised.

There is no other reason, because this is another acquaintance.

The leader of the ninja team who took on his mission was a muscular man with a terrifying shark face—

Dried persimmon ghost shark!

This made Hinata Inaba feel quite surprised and surprised.

"Okay, don't argue, this little friend took the initiative to join our escort team in order to make amends, this shouldn't violate our entrustment agreement, right?"

At the critical moment, Hinata Inaba opened his mouth and helped the ghost lantern Mizuki resolve the embarrassing argument.

The dried persimmon ghost shark looked at Hinata Inaba, then at the fried ghost lamp Shuiyue, and finally nodded indifferently.

"Since the employer has no opinion, then you can follow, but don't expect us to protect you in case of battle."

Most of the people who changed to the captain of the upper ninja would not agree, but the dried persimmon ghost shark was quite good in the fog, so he unexpectedly agreed.

So the group set off.

Along the way, the ghost lantern Shui Yue was still whispering in pieces.

"I'll see for myself what you're up to! You'd better pray that you don't get caught by me, abominable Fire Nation bastard! ”

But Hinata Inaba just smiled slightly, pretending not to hear.

After that, the group left Wuyin Village and went deep into the countryside of the Land of Water, and walked all morning before finally coming to the first seaside fishing village.

At this time, the ghost lantern Shuiyue was ready, he thought that he would see Hinata Inaba and his party being ostracized and resisted, and he secretly thought about how to taunt him to go back in order to avenge his previous revenge.

Because of the double brainwashing of the leading eldest brother and the family, he has always firmly believed that the visitors to the Fire Country must be evil!

When you leave the village, you should be completely exposed, right?

What he never expected was that after arriving at the fishing village, the delegation of the Chamber of Commerce was not only not ostracized, but also received an extremely warm welcome!

The village chief was very excited and took the initiative to talk to several buyers of the Tachibana Chamber of Commerce with gifts.

"Haha, it's great to see you guys! I thought you weren't coming this year. You don't know, this year is very stormy, and our fish harvest here is good! ”

This can make Ghost Lantern Suiyue a little dumbfounded.

He had always believed that these Fire Nation merchants must be evil characters, but why did they seem to be so popular wherever they went?

This...... What went wrong?

The unbelieving ghost lantern Shuiyue quietly slipped into the village when the members of the chamber of commerce were busy discussing the purchase price with the head of the fishing village, grabbed a villager and asked, "Hey, you, it's you!" Let me ask you, why do you all seem to welcome those chambers of commerce so much? Don't you know that they came from the land of fire? ”

The villagers looked a little afraid of the ninja and didn't dare to disobey, but they replied humbly.

"What does it matter to us where they come from? The price they give is really good. If they do not come, our fish, pearls, and other seafood will have to be sold to those of the Daimyo's house, and the price given by the tax collectors is less than thirty percent of what the caravan has paid. ”

Ghost Lantern Shuiyue was stunned for a moment, probably because she didn't expect the reason to be so simple.

Then he asked, "What about ...... So why don't you take it to a nearby city and sell it? ”

The villagers looked at him with a slightly sympathetic look.

"Little baby, you have never been out of the village at all, in our area, there are thieves and ronins less than twenty miles out of the village, and those who dare to go out are hard-fated, where do ordinary people dare to go out casually."

"Isn't it possible to hire ninjas for protection? The village of Fog is just west of you. ”

"Then we have to have that life to go to the Fog Hidden Village to issue a commission, and besides, how can ordinary people afford the price of a ninja."

"Well, that can't be ...... Nor can it be ......."

Ghost Lantern Shuiyue hesitated for a long time, but in the end, he had nothing to say.

He didn't understand how it could be like this.

Although the life or death of a small fishing village has little to do with him, it has little to do with the Ghost Lantern clan.

But he couldn't accept that his "brainwashed" concept of good and evil in the past was completely distorted.

These people in the Land of Fire are really not doing anything bad, but they have received a large number of local villagers in the Land of Water from the bottom of their hearts.

Why?

He doesn't understand!

Until Hinata Inaba quietly reappeared behind him and spoke slowly again.

"Now you can see who the bad guys are?"

"You?!" Ghost Lantern Shui Yue was startled at first, and instinctively took two steps back.

Then, probably not wanting to act too cowardly, he straightened his chest and took a step forward again, and asked Hinata Inaba: "What do you mean?!" Do you want to say that we are actually the bad guys? ”

Unexpectedly, Hinata Inaba, who was obviously "victorious" in his eyes, did not support his statement.

"Not really, it seems to me that the Fog Hidden Village, or the entire ninja group, is also a stupid victim."

"What did you say?"

"The aristocracy monopolized the wealth by locking the villagers to the land, and then took out a small part of the wealth to hire ninjas, protect their own safety, and use the powerful force of ninjas to maintain their rule, and in the end, whether it was the people or the ninjas, they got far less than what they paid, this is the truth that this world is always dark and war-torn.

You may not understand what I'm talking about, but you may be able to use your not-so-clever little brain to think about it, our existence is welcomed by the Wuyin Village, by the fishermen and villagers here, so who is disgusted with us? Who is it that teaches you to hate us? That might help you really discern who is cheating you and who is taking advantage of you. ”

Hinata Inaba gently patted the shoulder of the ghost lantern Mizutsuki.

He didn't expect an eight-year-old little Zhengtai to understand the laws of the world he was talking about so quickly.

But at least it can bring a little foreign shock to this little guy who has not been brainwashed very thoroughly!

I believe that from now on, this angry and rebellious white-haired imp is afraid that he will never be able to return to his family.

And Hinata Inaba is still killing two birds with one stone this time!

Because he had already discovered that not far away, the dried persimmon ghost shark was also monitoring and listening to his every move!

Knowing the original work, he naturally remembers: This was also a character who was once confused.

If he is lucky, he may be able to bring back a lot of unexpected gains!
