Konoha Thief

Chapter 19 Stupid Innocence

"Master Ninja..."

"Don't call me Ninja-sama!"

Kuno Kuroyu blushed, grinning with a shy expression on his face, extremely embarrassed.

The hunchbacked man squinted to make a kind camouflage, and opened it slightly at this moment, flashing a sneer, but his face was normal.

"Hehe! Brother Ninja? How about this name?"

"Old man, don't worry about what you call it, this is already the border of the Land of Fire, you can't go any further, you'd better leave quickly."

Kuno Kuroyu restrained his smirk, and sincerely warned the refugees.

Hearing what Kuno Heiyu said, the hunchbacked man suddenly coughed violently.

"Hey? Uncle, are you okay?"

Kuno Heiyu was at a loss when he saw this.

"It's okay, it's an old problem."

The hunchbacked man shook his head, with a sad expression on his face, raised his head to look at Kuno Kuroyu, and sighed bitterly: "Brother Ninja, it's not that we want to leave the country of Sichuan, the homeland is hard to leave, but in the country of Sichuan We can't live anymore!"

"Why? Didn't Konoha's army of ninjas beat Sand Yin out of the country of Kawa?"

Kuno Kuroyu's innocent question stunned the hunchbacked man, and he was completely sure that the ninja in front of him was a fledgling.

The war in the five great ninja villages is a dispute of interests, a chaotic war driven by many incentives such as land, resources, population, money, rights, etc., and greed. The reason why Konoha was targeted was not because of anything else The reason is purely because the Land of Fire is located in the most affluent land on this continent.

Besides, aside from these things, although it is inevitable that the war between Konoha and Sagakushi will spread to the Kingdom of the Wind, will the Kingdom of the River settle down after the main battlefield is pushed into the Kingdom of the Wind?
This is obviously impossible. In fact, after Konoha expelled Sand Yin from the country of Kawa, the country of Kawa did not stabilize. Instead, it became a place where wandering ninjas and hired samurai raged. The country was also full of rogue gangsters , all in all, it's a mess.

This is the disadvantage of not having ninja forces in the country, but it is a pity that it is not easy to survive between the two great powers of wind and fire. If it weren't for the weakness of the country of Sichuan, it would have been divided up by the two powers long ago.

Presumably, the reason why the Kingdom of Rivers was retained was because it was beneficial to the Nation of Fire. After all, as we all know, the daimyo of the Nation of Fire is a kind elder, and occupies the most fertile land in the mainland, so he has no desire to expand its territory.

However, although the Land of Winds has the most extensive territory in the Ninja World, most of its landforms are desert landforms. Naturally, it is inevitable that the two neighboring countries, Earth and Fire, will covet it. Therefore, in order to maintain a certain degree of restraint, a small country like the Kingdom of Kawa Well, it is necessary to exist.

In fact, as the initial center of this Ninja World War, the Land of Rain was originally a buffer zone for similar disputes between major powers, but the accidental appearance of such a powerful figure as Hanzo made the current status of the Land of Rain slightly weaker in the eyes of the five major powers. Improvement, but that's all.

Therefore, under this cruel reality, Kuno Heiyu's embrace of the so-called justice and injustice is really ridiculous.

However, it is easier for such a fool to obtain the information they want to know.

The hunchbacked middle-aged man looked as usual, but at this moment he sighed and sighed. He glanced at Kuno Heiyu, then turned his head to avoid looking at each other, not daring to look at each other. They are not restrained in time.

Movie king!

Seeing the hunchbacked man's expression change, Xia Shu, who was hiding among the luxuriant leaves, couldn't help admiring. The disguise was poor, but the acting skills were terrible. What are these guys doing?
At the same time, he swept his eyes and kept observing. From the subtleties of these refugees' attire, he could vaguely judge at this moment that not all of these refugees came here with premeditation.

Among them, those who are desperate or extremely desperate and have distorted psychology, those who walk around looking for opportunities, and those who are terrified and frightened, these people are the majority of the refugees, and there are about twenty dozen of the remaining ones. , but the temperament is difficult to change, plus some residual traces of the transformation technique, in the eyes of him who has perfected the transformation technique, after careful inspection, they are all flaws!
More than twenty people are all ninjas, even if they are all ninjas, it is definitely not something he can deal with at the moment, which makes Xia Shu can't help but feel like retreating.

However, Aoki Gennosuke didn't seem to be moving, which made him feel at ease, and secretly thought that maybe he had prepared himself well, after all, his solemnity during that time was definitely not staged.

Of course, it was Maruyoshi Kosuke who really gave him confidence. That smiling Shinobi was also one of the representatives of the "squinting-eyed funny monster", at least in Natsuki's eyes.

Today's Kosuke Maruyoshi is at the pinnacle, and he definitely has the strength of an elite jonin. At this moment, these people who are disguised as refugees may not have the power to fight against Kosuke Maruyoshi.

After calming down, Xia Shu continued to look at the situation on the gentle slope.

"Uncle?"

Kuno Heiyu looked at the hunchbacked man suspiciously, frowning, wondering why Fang hesitated to speak.

The latter felt a little helpless for Kuno Heiyu's slowness. Could it be that the fear that was properly revealed on his face was hidden too deeply?Or is this guy blind?

Roaring in his heart, the hunchbacked man couldn't continue the planned dialogue routine alone. After all, although the kid in front of him was stupid, he would be seen through if it was too obvious.

"Old man, tell me, why do you still have to travel long distances to come here when Konoha's army expelled Sand Hidden?"

Kuno Heiyu didn't know it, and asked urgently with a puzzled expression on his face.

"Hey! Brother Ninja, don't ask me."

The hunchbacked man hesitated for a moment, and finally shook his head vigorously. Then, without waiting for Kuno Heiyu to ask again, he said, "I can't live in the country of Sichuan. At first we wanted to go to the country of soil, but we haven't arrived there yet. , the ninja-sama guarding the border suddenly launched an attack on us, and even my relatives stayed there...so now the Land of Fire is our only hope!"

The hunchbacked man uttered sincere words, as if coming from grief, tears welled up in the corners of his eyes.

"Old man, don't worry, Konoha is different from other ninja villages."

Kuno Heiyu said something, then turned and shouted towards the woods: "Mr. Aoki, Natsuki, Uncle Gujie, come out, these people are civilians, not enemies!"

Shouting these words, the heart of Xia Shu who was hiding in the woods suddenly trembled!

"Hehe! Too much naivety is stupidity, and stupidity is usually fatal!"

When the sinister sneer sounded behind him, Kuno Heiyu only felt some inexplicable chills on his back, but he didn't realize what was coming!
