Konoha Thief

Chapter 289

Hatake House.

White silk interweaves to form a languid flower, hanging in front of the coffin, with elegiac couplets standing on both sides of the coffin, a little green smoke ignited, lingering in front of the coffin, blurring the slightly stern face.

"Condolences, Kakashi." Saluting Hatake Sakumo's spiritual seat, the honest-looking Konoha Kami Shinobu raised his head, looked at the silver-haired boy who was returning the salute, hesitated to speak, finally sighed, turned and left.

Hatake Kakashi knelt and sat on the right side of the mourning hall, as if he didn't hear it, and remained silent all the time.

However, under the mask, the teeth were clenched.

When Hatake Sakumo was alive, it can be said that half of his foot had stepped into Konoha's high-level. However, after his death, only a few old friends came to mourn him, which is even more sad than ridiculous.

Xia Shu stood on the top of a small three-story building, looking at Hatake's house. Because of the distance, Hatake Kakashi's figure looked extraordinarily thin, exuding a gloomy aura.

At this moment, he has been here for a long time, and he has been observing the situation of Hatake House. Except for the visit of Maitekai not long ago, because of some language problems, which made Kakashi emotional and angry, he has been silent all the time. The seeds are quietly planted in the mind.

The situation in the next few days was roughly the same. The only thing worth mentioning was that Maitekai came to Hatake's house again, trying to arouse Kakashi's will with challenges.

However, today's Maitekai is far from the future. Kakashi only used a clone technique to deceive him, and then kicked him to the ground, and the two broke up unhappy.

Bai Fang's death was like a gust of wind blowing through the leaves, and soon there was no follow-up. Xia Shu was so sensitive that he noticed a trace of abnormality, but this matter had nothing to do with him, and of course he would not waste his energy looking for trouble.

After reporting the results of the matter to Danzang, he returned to the experimental base outside the village. After a few days of absence, the experimental subject had two new faces.

Sighing that he missed it in his heart, he took back the responsibility of serving as Orochimaru from Fujita, and followed Orochimaru back in and out of the laboratory every day.

The experiment of Mutun's reappearance has always been progressing slowly. All Dashewan can do is to cross out the conjectures from the notebook, and behind this means the demise of one life after another.

As a result, there were some rumors in Konoha Village, and Danzo came here specially for this purpose, one to supervise the progress of the Orochimaru experiment, and the other to inform that in the next period of time, the experimental subjects will no longer be as sufficient as before.

Orochimaru was extremely dissatisfied with this, but the experimental research did not produce results, and even he could not be tough.

In the following period of time, the supply of experimental subjects has indeed decreased by a large amount. After August, the eight beds in the laboratory have almost never been full, and on the contrary, they have been empty several times.

This led to Xia Shu's plan to accumulate enough resources for the "Dimensional Thieves" to activate resources, which was directly shattered. However, with such efficiency, it is estimated that at the beginning of the year, it will be almost enough.

……

The bleak autumn wind blows down a withered yellow leaf, and the dead leaf falls slowly. The moment it is about to hit the ground, the murderous air suddenly condenses, causing the wandering ninjas who are handed over to each other's backs in the open space below to stand up all over their bodies.

swoosh~
Amidst the slight low-pressure sound of breaking through the air, suddenly, a figure with a hideous mask appeared in front of the wandering ninja facing west.

The sudden attack made the wandering ninja's complexion change, and he opened his mouth and shouted nervously.

Years of experience in fighting made him choose defense at this moment, because with his eyesight, he couldn't judge whether the opponent was inducing him to separate from his companions, and as long as the defense survived the opponent's first wave of attacks, his shouts could make him The companion reacted, no matter what the situation is, there is still room for a fight.

In the line of sight of the wandering ninja, the masked ninja slightly raised his arm holding the sword, which was obviously a precursor to an attack. At this moment, he suddenly let out a cry that rushed to his throat, but what happened next changed his expression drastically!
His cry came from his mouth, but it couldn't get out at all!
The next moment, the masked ninja suddenly launched an attack, and the extremely fast sword drawing was startled. Before the wandering ninja's resisting posture was completed, a bloodstain appeared between the eyebrows, and a layer of grayness was quietly cast on the solemn eyes.

The power of the static card silently eliminated all the surrounding movements, and there was a strange atmosphere in the air. Seeing it was equivalent to killing a wandering ninja with a swift sword drawn on the body.

And as it fell, another wandering ninja noticed the abnormality.

He hurriedly looked sideways, and shouted words, but no sound came out immediately. When the last word was heard, the isolated voice suddenly returned. The strange change surprised him for a moment.

Hey~
Accompanied by the return of the sound, a low groan sounded as the blade cut into the scabbard. The sound wave stirred the air and poured into the wandering ninja's ears, but suddenly it turned into a sharp knife, which made him scream out. It was even worse. What is more is the imbalance of the body!
"Broken Dao No. [-]: Bai Lei!"

Pointing the fingertips between the brows of the wandering ninja, a white arc suddenly burst out, piercing into the skull in an instant.

The wandering ninja paused, then staggered and fell to the ground. While twitching, the masked ninja stepped forward, raised his foot and stepped on it. With a crisp click, the wandering ninja's neck had twisted into a weird posture.

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!
The battle ended quickly, and several masked ninjas appeared in an instant, guarding and checking the status of the wandering ninjas.

"It's dead." The ninja at the root of the eagle's beak mask raised his head and said lightly.

"Yeah." Of course Xia Shu knew it, and said again: "Check to see if the target is correct."

"Yes." The ninja at the root of the eagle's mouth mask took out the scroll, turned the face of the wandering ninja, compared the images on the scroll, and said, "It's the two of you, Shanyou."

"In that case, then cut off the head, this is the requirement of the task." Xia Shu said lightly.

This time to intercept and kill this group of wandering ninjas is to complete a revenge mission.

Of course it won't be Konoha who seeks revenge, the only ones who dare to provoke Konoha in the ninja world are the other four major ninja villages.

To put it simply, a caravan was robbed by this group of wandering ninjas, and this group of wandering ninjas robbed not only the goods, but also killed all the escorts and merchants.

In the chaotic ninja world, the escorts all work for money, and no one will hold them accountable if they die, but the person who leads the caravan is the nephew of a wealthy businessman.

The rich businessman has some connections in the Land of Fire, and it is precisely because this mission was issued by the Land of Fire that the root ninja will take the shot. Otherwise, dealing with such low-level goods as wandering ninjas is at best an A-level mission.

Of course, the reason why this interception mission is S-rank does not depend on the difficulty of completing the task, but the remuneration paid by the wealthy businessman, which has reached the S-rank level.
