Konoha Thief

Chapter 83 Extraction...

Some things, even if you are entangled and hesitant, you have to do it after all.

The chopsticks were banging against the wall of the bowl. Suddenly, Hirano Yi put down the bowl and chopsticks, and raised his head to reveal a pair of focused eyes.

"This is something that should be endured!" He said in a firm tone that Kuno Heiyu couldn't understand.

Xia Shu's face was solemn, and he glanced at the bag that Hirano Yiichi was hanging on his body. It was only available after the border defense war, so what was contained in it was undoubtedly the relics of his three subordinates.

He will deliver these things to his relatives or friends with his own hands, and offer them silent condolences full of sorrow.

……

It was said to be a day or two, but in fact it was three days after the order to retreat was issued.

Xia Shu had no way of knowing about the negotiations between the high-level executives and Sha Yin, but he was particularly impressed by the atmosphere in this dilapidated city.

This day, early in the morning.

The cold morning wind that is unique to the desert area blows sand grains and blows over the ruined city, and the city gate that was already destroyed to the point of being shattered is wide open.

A group of swift ninjas rushed out, followed by Konoha troops.

All with the joy of victory and the urgency to return home, they will leave the country of wind, cross the country of rivers in the next few days, and finally arrive at the Hidden Leaf Village in the country of fire.

The speed of large troops running is naturally slower than that of a single team. The return route should also be planned in advance. Choose those roads with a wide field of vision to avoid emergencies such as ambushes and sneak attacks, which will catch the large troops off guard. , so naturally you can’t take a shortcut.

Whether this made the other ninjas anxious, Natsuki didn't know, but he enjoyed it quite a bit, and there was a sense of anticipation in his heart, because the 'Dimensional Thief Hand' was about to reach the limit of activation!
But in order to prevent accidents, I'll wait until I get back to Konoha. After all, I can tell from his cheating record. The uncertainty is too great. What if I "take out" a Batmobile? !

What's more, the continuous rushing on the road requires sufficient chakra. Now that the Second Ninja World War has come to an end, it's time to slow down the tense nerves.

With such thoughts in his heart, Xia Shu breathed out slowly, relaxed his mind, and gradually showed a smile from the heart on his immature face.

……

Passing through the country of Chuanuo, knowing that the Konoha ninja troops were returning, the daimyo of the country of Kawasaki sent people to wait on the way in advance, and the troops could not help but stop for a short time.

"Why did you stop?" Kuno Heiyu stretched his neck to look out, but due to his height limitation, he couldn't see what was going on ahead.

"Take a break if you can't see it, aren't you tired?" Hirano Yiyi sat on the ground, seemingly not curious about what happened, raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, and then looked at Kuno Hei in surprise. rain.

"That's right... Oops! I'm so tired! I've run out of chakra!" Not to mention that it's okay, but once he said it, he became excited.

"You stay here for a while, I'll go to the front to inquire." Gennosuke Aoki warned, then left the team and headed forward.

The rest of the people rested on their own.

Not long after, Gennosuke Aoki returned with information and orders.

"Gangsters, wandering ninjas, and samurai are rampant in the country of Kawa, so the daimyo of the country of Kawa has issued a mission to eradicate these evil forces." Gennosuke Aoki said slowly: "This is the first post-war village. It’s a mission, so it’s given special attention, the troops are temporarily stationed for rest, and more than ten teams will be selected later to carry out this mission.”

"Do we have a chance too?" Hirano Giichi asked casually.

"Don't you have the answer?" Aoki Gennosuke rolled his eyes. This kind of task related to making a name for himself, even if it's a face-saving project, must be carried out by the team led by Jonin. They don't have to worry about it. There is hope.

Sure enough, as he expected, after a while, several teams left the army, and the remaining ninjas set off again.

Such a smooth journey.

A few days later, Konoha's main entrance is already in sight!

Before stepping into the gate, there was a roar of cheers like a wave. It was the villagers of Konoha who were welcoming the triumphant return of the hero.

The most powerful Konoha on the Ninja Continent once again showed his unparalleled military prowess. As a village resident, he was proud and celebrated.

The lively atmosphere lasted for a long time, and it didn't gradually dissipate until the evening and dusk approached, and another atmosphere filled the air.

It is an atmosphere of mourning and grief.

After three years in this world, Xia Shu couldn't help being touched by these atmospheres, but after all, it had nothing to do with him.

Say goodbye to Aoki Gennosuke and others, agree to have a dinner at six o'clock tomorrow night, and then walk to the southeast direction of the village.

The key was inserted into the lock, and the door of the small courtyard was pushed open with a creaking sound.

It is still the familiar scenery, the exquisite courtyard, and the small pond inside the wall.

However, the green and vibrant lotus has withered and withered, and the extended branches hanging on the swing are completely withered. The fallen leaves fell all over the ground in the cold autumn wind in late autumn, and even the quiet path paved with stone slabs was covered. I can't see the traces.

Although he had been away for several months, the moment he stepped into this small courtyard, he still felt a sense of stability and stability, more precisely, the feeling of returning home.

After unloading all his burdens, Xia Shu lit the ground lamp in the courtyard, rolled up his sleeves and started cleaning.

This courtyard can be regarded as his home.

When I went to perform the mission, it was cleaned up. Now that I have returned alive, of course I have to clean it again. This can be regarded as a unique celebration ceremony.

After working for a long time, the night sky turned into deep blackness, and the sky was full of stars, which was a rare sight in the previous life.

Throwing down the broom and mop, he let out a long sigh of relief, stood on the porch with his arms crossed and looked at the tidy little courtyard, Xia Shu had a faint but sincere smile on his face.

"This counts as having bathed and burned incense?" At this moment, he suddenly thought of the golden finger he had accumulated once yesterday, and he couldn't help but feel full of anticipation.

After casually dealing with dinner, Xia Shu really took a shower and washed, and changed into clean clothes. There was no incense, but the sense of anticipation was not diminished at all, and even became stronger.

"Let's do it this time, let's have a sense of ritual next time." Muttering, Xia Shu couldn't bear it anymore, rubbed his hands vigorously, and took a few deep breaths, "Let's begin!"

Of course, Goldfinger is not voice-activated. After talking about the beginning, you have to take the initiative to reach out and grab it to "grab".

There is nothing to describe this process, neither can it be seen nor felt, but based on the last experience and speculation, he silently recited the category of things he wanted to get, and then tried to turn this into reality. The moment you return home.

Then, he pulled out...
