Chapter 297 Gathering at the Gold Exchange to Capture Jiaodu

"Ah! Did you do it on purpose or accidentally!"

Senju Itama, who was squatting in front of Uchiha Gin and watching the show, was instantly sprayed with dog blood. He turned his head with resentment and questioned with a pair of big eyes,

"It was intentional and careless."

Wipe the stains on the corners of his mouth, Uchiha Gin perfunctorily said, and then threw the handkerchief he had used to wipe his mouth on Senju Itama's head,

"Hey, just wipe it yourself~"

The nature of the scumbag was revealed.

"Hmm"

The angry Senju Itama pulled off the handkerchief hanging on his head and was about to get angry, but found that the handkerchief in his hand was embroidered with a strawberry pattern. Then he looked at the two women who were concentrating on eating melons with a guilty look, and quietly took it away.

"Heh, stop talking nonsense and surrender!"

In the battlefield below, the leader of the Ghost Soldier Team was stunned for a moment after hearing Wu's call, then sneered after reacting, and stabbed out with the long sword in his hand.

"Bang!"

I didn't expect that the other party would not even consider it. Wu, who was waiting for a reply, raised his sword hastily to resist. The huge force of the collision made his arm numb.

The leader saw the flaw and then stabbed Wu's vitals with a very tricky angle. The sharp sword energy made Wu, whose middle door was wide open, frightened and felt the breath of death.

I succeeded!

The scarlet eyes under the leader's mask burst out with brilliance. Just before he made a move, he quietly released an illusion exclusive to the Sharingan.

I didn't expect that I could take down Wu, the famous Wu in the Hidden Rock Village, with the strength of an elite captain. When I return to the country of waves, I can brag about it.

At this critical moment, a water bullet shot at a speed that could not be seen by the naked eye, carrying a huge force, and hit the leader's long sword directly. "Bang!" While making a crisp sound, the move was forcibly changed. The sharp blade brushed Wu's armpit. There was no blood gushing out as imagined, and it only cut a few bandages. Wu, who was covered in cold sweat, jumped away immediately, looked down at the broken bandage between his ribs, and frowned in confusion. He seemed to be clamped by an inexplicable cold force for a moment. "Aren't you enemies? Why did you save him?" The leader turned around with an unpredictable look, looked at Gui Deng Huan Yue with his right hand like a pistol, and asked with a frown. "Oioi, that guy's life can only be taken by me, how can you cats and dogs get there first." Putting down his hand, Gui Deng Huan Yue, who saved the life of his old enemy, stroked his mustache in a showy manner, but there was a strong sense of vigilance in his eyes. "I wanted to deal with you later, but since you are so anxious, don't blame us for being rude."

Although the leader's tone was tough, his actions were very rational. He waved his hand, and the waiting ghost soldiers immediately formed an encirclement, surrounding Wu and Gui Deng Huan Yue.

The ghost soldiers stared at the two of them with a covetous look, and the cold power emanating from their bodies could be clearly felt even from more than ten meters away.

"Such a strong Yin escape power, Ah Yin, where do they come from?"

Uchiha Guang, who was standing next to Uchiha Yin, looked at these mysterious ghost soldiers with some surprise. Such a pure Yin escape power was extremely rare even in the Uchiha clan, so how could it not arouse the girl's interest.

"I just got here, I don't know either~"

Uchiha Gin, who knew the true identity of the Ghost Soldier Team, didn't want to expose them too early, and then began to act cute and silly,

"They call themselves the Ghost Soldier Team, and I haven't heard of this organization before?"

Uchiha Ji, who was also a little curious, searched for information in his mind for a long time, but did not find any records about the Ghost Soldier Team,

However, since it can become the security team of the capital of Taki Country, it should be an official organization that has just emerged recently!

"Ah? Are you still going to fight?"

Senju Itama, who didn't care about these trivial matters, had wiped his wet little head clean. At this moment, he was staring at the situation below. Seeing that both sides were not moving, he couldn't help but curled his lips,

"It's likely that there will be no fight~"

Uchiha Gin looked up at the fog that had begun to spread around him at some point. This was by no means a natural phenomenon, but the work of Hozuki Huanyue.

"This fog"

"Hehe, goodbye~Bandage man, victory will always belong to us Kirigakure!"

The leader of the ghost army obviously found out something, but it was too late. Hozuki Huanyue, who was in the fog, laughed strangely, and after making a declaration, he disappeared into the thick fog. Even if the leader used the Sharingan, he could not find his trace.

"It's a waste of time."

Wu saw his old enemy retreating, and he also wanted to retreat. He slowly took a few steps back. In the surprised eyes of everyone, his body actually disappeared from his feet. In just a few breaths, the whole person was swallowed by the void, leaving no trace, as if he had never been there.

"Even the breath disappeared, is it a space ninjutsu?"

Uchiha Guang, who was staring at him, tried to find the secret of Wu's disappearance, but no matter how she sensed it, she could not find any clues, as if he had evaporated from the earth.

Watching Wu disappear on the spot, the puzzled people speculated about Wu's strange means.

"Enjoy it~"

Only Uchiha Gin, who has extraordinary perception, discovered the secret of Wu's disappearance. According to the extremely obscure aura, the bandaged man is still in the same place, but has entered the invisible state.

Wuchen Misai?

It's simply a voyeuristic magic. Compared to Moonlight Blast's half-baked penetration, I don't know how much better it is~

"Damn it, search it for me!"

Seeing that the opportunity to show off was fleeting, the leader of the Ghost Soldiers became even more angry and his eyes became redder. He yelled and ordered to his men.

"yes!"

After receiving the order, the members of the Ghost Soldiers immediately dispersed and launched a carpet-like search of the area.

"There's nothing left to do, let's go~"

After the farce ended, Uchiha Gin stood up, clapped his hands, turned around and took the three girls out of the theater. They were not the only ones watching the show.

In a hidden corner on the other side, Samana, who had just had a pleasant chat with Uchiha Gin, was staring with mung bean eyes, looking straight at the ghost soldiers who were searching for Ghost Lantern Huanyue and the other two, with his brows furrowed into a sichuan character. ,

Before he came to the country of Taki, he had never heard of the existence of such a team. It was able to force back the ghosts, lights, and moons whose strength was not inferior to his own. He must investigate it carefully.

"Brother, the aura of those guys made it a little uncomfortable. It almost made me go berserk just now."

Yinjiao walked out of the dark alley at the corner of the street and looked at the ghost soldiers not far away with a frown. The wrinkled veins on his forehead twitched slightly, and a violent look flashed in his eyes.

"Interesting, you go check out the details of these people. I thought this trip would be no fun, but I didn't expect there would be an unexpected surprise."

Jin Jiao looked at the ghost army with great interest. He, who was always warlike, wanted to compete with this mysterious army, and then gave a big order to his subordinate Heilao.

In the next few days, Uchiha Gin and the three women carefully searched for information about the whereabouts of Nanao, but found nothing.

So he stayed in the most luxurious hotel in Takino Country for a few days, and set out to look for clues every day.

Today, the three girls went out early, and the old god Uchiha Ginze stayed in the hotel hanging on the wall. His main purpose was not to look for Nanao, so he did not work hard and waited for the good news of the girls.

"Mr. Gin, there are no records of giant insects being sighted in recent times. Will the Nanao fly away from the country of Taki?"

Uchiha Governance, who had been out searching for information for a day, had a look of exhaustion on her face. She had already visited the entire capital of Takino Country, and had basically explored all the places of the three religions and nine schools, but there was still no news about Nanao.

"Thank you for your hard work, little manager~"

Looking at the dusty Uchiha, Uchiha Gin stretched out his hand to rub her dog's head, but the girl dodged it, causing his big hand to stop awkwardly in mid-air.

"Mr. Silver, I am no longer a child."

There was a look of dissatisfaction on Uchiha Gin's cold face, but there was a hint of shyness in her eyes. She had not experienced the sequelae of Omatsu before. Now she did not dare to have any physical contact with Uchiha Gin, for fear that she would not be able to bear it. She gasped.

"Sorry sorry~"

Kankan retracted his big hand, and Uchiha Gin scratched his head in embarrassment. His disciple had really grown up and knew how to avoid suspicion.

"Where are Senior Guang and the others?"

"I guess he'll be back soon."

Creak~

Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived. A cold-faced Uchiha Hikaru pushed open the door and saw Uchiha Governance who came back ahead of her. She nodded and said hello, and then sat down next to Uchiha Gin, looking a little impatient.

"Xiaoguang, did you find anything?"

"Same as yesterday."

The annoyed Uchiha Hikari bent down, untied the small sandals and threw them aside. The slightly red and swollen crystal jade toes stretched slightly. Uchiha Gin beside him swallowed subconsciously.

It seems that the girl has walked a lot today~

"But this also confirms that the ninjas in other villages have not found any trace of Nanao."

After massaging his toes like silkworms, Uchiha Hikaru said thoughtfully,

"If they discover Nanao, there will definitely be a big war. There is no way there will be no news at all."

"Don't think about it now, it's time to eat~"

The girl's analysis was well-founded, and Uchiha Gin naturally agreed with both hands, but it was already meal time, and eating was the most important task at the moment.

"Why don't you wait for Itama?"

"No wait, my stomach is growling with hunger. Just leave some leftovers for her then."

That kid must have gone out to play and forgot about time, so let her be hungry!

"Bang!!!"

As soon as Uchiha Gin finished speaking, the door that had just been pushed open was knocked open by a huge force, and the fiery figure of Senju Itama broke in,

"You little brat! You have to pay for this door to the hotel!"

Looking at the crumbling door, Uchiha Gin held his forehead with a headache and said helplessly,

"Hmph! I heard what you just said clearly in the corridor. You damn curly-haired baboon, thanks to me I discovered important information!"

Senju Itama crossed his arms and stared at Uchiha Gin angrily. How dare you let her, the Senju eldest lady, eat leftovers? You're going against you!

"Huh? Did you find out the information?"

Uchiha Gin, who had no intention of continuing to talk to Senju Itama, paused when he heard the word "information", turned his head, and asked in a very suspicious tone.

"Hmph~"

Seeing that several people were looking at him, Senju Itama raised his little head proudly and showed his confidence.

Come on, you’ve even picked it up~

"Itama, tell me quickly, the mission is important."

Seeing Senju Itama's appearance, Uchiha Governance urged her. She also wanted to know what information she had discovered.

"Hmm~"

Senju Itama did not reply. Instead, he looked at Uchiha Gin with a proud look on his face, his big eyes full of hints.

"Okay, I'm afraid of you, you can eat whatever you want later!"

"Yeah!"

Senju Itama, who happily jumped three feet high and got the promise, slowly told what he had discovered today,

It turned out that Senju Itama accidentally met a few bounty hunters today. From their chat, she heard the word Kakuzu. After seeing the details of the mission, she immediately became alert and followed these bounty hunters there. In a remote place, he knocked several people over one by one and tortured them.

"You mean, there's a new bounty hunter named Kakuzu?"

After listening to Senju Itama's narration, Uchiha Gin raised his eyebrows. He thought that since he helped Kakuzu become tailed beasts to fight, he would not follow the old path of a bounty hunter. Unexpectedly, the other party chose this path in the end. The career path is really disappointing.

"That's right, that guy said that this Kakuzu is extremely powerful and has completed many difficult tasks in just one week. And based on the appearance characteristics they described, it should be the traitorous ninja Kakuzu mentioned in the mission."

Senju Itama nodded and truthfully stated what he had discovered today.

"Well, you little brat is quite useful sometimes~"

Nodding, Uchiha Gin subconsciously stretched out his hand to move Senju Itama's dog's head. The little governance he had just lost must be made up for with this kid.

"Hehe~"

Perhaps because he was used to this kind of interaction, Senju Itama not only did not resist, but looked like he was enjoying it, which made the Uchiha manager on the side feel a little bit sour in his heart.

Looking at her best friend who had transformed into a mini version, a trace of hesitation flashed in her eyes. It seemed that this track was quite popular, why not try it herself?

Senju Itama: Danger!

"Ah Yin, since we have discovered the whereabouts of that traitorous ninja, shouldn't we..."

Seeing that the mission was progressing, Uchiha Hikaru regained her energy and quickly put on her shoes again. Then she asked Uchiha Gin for her opinion. She thought that she should take action quickly to capture the traitorous ninja before other ninja villages. Forced to find out the whereabouts of Nanao.

"That's right! It's time to eat~"

"."

At the same time when Uchiha Gin and others discovered Kakuzu's intelligence, Wu, who looked gloomy, looked at the shivering Taki-nin in front of him, wrinkled the bandage on his forehead, and said,

"You said you found traces of the traitorous ninja in your village?"

"Yes, Master Mu. During our search today, we accidentally obtained information from the gold exchange. That guy Kakuzu is not only alive, but has also become a bounty hunter."

Regarding the information about Kakuzu, he bought it from the black market with his own money. Since Kakuzu is still a new bounty hunter, his information is not difficult to obtain.

"Are you looking for Nanao, or are you trying to get us to help you catch that traitorous ninja?"

Mu first lowered his head to think, then raised his head with a sneer. He always felt that the purpose of the Taki-nin in front of him was impure.

"Master Wu, please don't misunderstand. Kakuzu is the last person to come into contact with the divine beast. If we catch him, we can definitely find out the whereabouts of the divine beast."

Captured by the fearless aura, the Taki ninja trembled a little as he spoke.

He does have a bit of selfishness, because the overall situation of Taki Ninja Village is still uncertain, and everyone is still competing for the position of leader. If he can return triumphantly with the rebel Ninja Kakuzu at this time, he will definitely become the new leader of Taki Ninja Village.

"Hmph~ Gather the troops immediately and set off to capture Kakuzu!"

There is no doubt that Gin Uchiha is a salty fish. As soon as he confirmed Kakuzu's intelligence, he didn't even eat and quickly gathered his men to set off.

"Lord Huanyue, the brothers just discovered the traces of Yanyin Village. They gathered a large number of people and left the city."

In the hiding place of Kirigakure Village, Ghost Lantern Huanyue was enjoying dinner. He heard the hurried voice of his men in his ears. His eyes focused and he immediately waved his hand.

"Set off!"

The black market money exchange in Taki Country is located in a small town with a small population not far from the capital.

A figure wrapped in a black robe walked slowly on the desolate street, dragging a lifeless corpse behind him. After a while, he came to the most remote public toilet in the town, looked around, and stepped away. Went in.

Smelling the unique stench of the toilet, Kakuzu didn't pay attention, pushed open the secret door next to the toilet and walked in.

Inside the secret door was an empty hall. A fat middle-aged man was writing something on the counter. When he saw the man in black robe walking slowly, a professional smile appeared on his face.

"Huh? It's Kakuzu-sama, here to collect the bounty again?"

"Um."

The man under the black robe raised his head, and his black eyes glowed with a faint green light that was not seen before. He threw the body that exuded a faint smell behind him on the counter, took out a reward order from his arms and threw it over.

"Please wait~"

The staff at the gold exchange office are all professionally trained. They face all kinds of corpses every day and have long been immune to the smell of corpses. They immediately put on gloves and inspected the corpse in front of them.

After a while, the middle-aged employee who groped the body all over the body nodded and said,

"Confirmed, it's me. Kakuzu-sama, do you still want cash?"

"cash!"

After a while, the middle-aged employee took out a bag from the back room. Kakuzu took it and opened it on the spot. It was filled with currency commonly used in the ninja world. However, after receiving the reward, he did not choose to leave. Instead, he took out the currency and counted it carefully.

"Kakuzu-sama, you can't have more trust between people. Our gold exchange office has always been honest and honest, and we will never be greedy for your bounty."

The middle-aged clerk looked at Kakuzu counting money one by one with a black line on his face, and said helplessly. It could be seen that this was not the first time he had encountered this situation.

"This is the fun of making money. I prefer counting money than spending it."

Kakuzu, who was counting the money, looked much calmer than the tense state before.

The middle-aged staff member looked at Kakuzu who was very interested and just shook his head gently and did not continue to dissuade him.

"Huh~ The amount is correct. Are there any high reward lists recently? Give me one."

After counting several times, Kakuzu put the bag into the storage scroll, then raised his head, looked at the middle-aged employee, and asked aloud.

"Yes, yes, but Kakuzu-sama, instead of offering a reward, you should be more careful when walking at night recently~"

Adhering to the principle of not wanting to lose an excellent bounty hunter, the middle-aged employee who was sitting at his desk looking at Kakuzu said something incomprehensible.

"What do you mean?"

Kakuzu frowned. He heard something in the middle-aged man's words, and then asked,

"Information fee~"

The middle-aged man did not answer directly. Instead, he showed a philistine smile and made a money gesture towards Kakuzu.

"Hmph~ I don't know what it means!"

Even if the Sage of Six Paths came today, he would not try to dig out a copper coin from Kakuzu. After snorting coldly, he left the money exchange without even turning his head.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, what a pity."

Since Kakuzu was unwilling to pay the information fee, the middle-aged man said nothing more. He just looked at his leaving back and shook his head with regret.

With a heavy heart, Kakuzu walked quickly. From the few words of the middle-aged employee, he could infer that someone was looking for him and already knew his whereabouts.

As for the other party's purpose, it should be the mythical beast.

As soon as he stepped out of the public toilet, Kakuzu was keenly aware of something strange. Just before entering the money exchange, there were people in the shop not far away. At this moment, it was not time to close the door to thank customers, and the shop actually closed early.

Just at this time, light rain began to fall in the gray sky, and there was a faint sense of chill in the humid air.

"Bang~"

Kakuzu suddenly felt that this place was not suitable for staying for a long time. As soon as he took a step forward, he saw a kunai shot from nowhere. He quickly retreated to avoid it, and the sharp kunai was inserted directly into the place where he was standing before.

Looking at the fine steel kunai made of high-quality materials, Kakuzu frowned slightly. Judging from his many years of experience in renovating kunai, this kunai was definitely not made by Xiao Ninja Village, and the identity of the person who came was definitely not simple.

Now that the other party has made a move to test, it means that the encirclement has been closed. Everyone who knows the depth of the other party is looking around, lowering his body slightly, making a warning gesture.

"Rebel Ninja Kakuzu! Why don't you hurry up and capture him!"

Hearing a loud shout, several figures wearing Taki-nin forehead protectors flashed out of the forest. The leader was the elite jounin who had hunted him down before. At this moment, he had his arms folded across his chest, with a look of pride on his face.

"It's you traitors, why don't you give up?"

Kakuzu looked at the person with some surprise. He didn't expect that the person looking for him was his former colleague, but then his heart sank. These were not the only people who came to arrest him. There must be others hiding nearby.

After all, these poor guys would never be willing to buy a kunai made of fine steel. In the past, they had to bargain for a second-hand kunai.

"Stop talking nonsense and get going!"

Taki-nin, an elite jounin, waved his hand, and several Taki-nin brothers behind him took out kunai and long swords and started to kill Kakuzu.

"snort!"

Kakuzu, whose strength has long been different from what it used to be, faced the menacing men and didn't even bother to raise his eyelids. He quickly formed seals with his hands,

It goes better with water escape on rainy days~

"Water Escape·Water Curtain Tent."

I saw a torrent of water spurting out of Kakuzu's mouth, sweeping towards Taki Ninja who was flying forward at extremely fast speed.

The strength of these Taki-nin varied greatly. They were suddenly attacked in the air, and their faces immediately showed panic. After just one encounter, they were swept up into the sky by the current, and then they were hit hard on the ground and fell into a coma.

Kakuzu, who killed all the Taki-nin instantly, cast his cold eyes on the only standing Taki-nin leader, with a chill in his tone,

"The end of the traitors has come." (End of chapter)
