The Heavens: Cthulhu started from Hokage

The next morning, after Bai Yuan saw off Mifune, he also began preparations for traveling.

He packed the dry food, clothing, daily necessities, "Basics of Chakra Refining" and "Dragon Flash Secret Sword Sutra" into the package.

Then he went to the tailor shop in the market to customize a black coat, with six red letters of "Hachiman Naiya no Okami" embroidered on the back to show that Shiraibuchi was the apostle of Naiya.

He looks a bit average, but in order to increase his prestige, a little shame is nothing.

After making these preparations, Bai Yuan embarked on a journey to travel.

Facing the setting sun, he headed towards the Kingdom of Rain.

As for why it is the Land of Rain, Bai Yuan has also thought about it carefully.

He was considering two directions from the beginning. One was the Konoha Village in the Country of Fire where he was.

As the No. [-] ninja village in the world, Konoha Village is undoubtedly very strong and rich. Going to Konoha will have more prospects and room for development. Konoha Village, where most of the plot characters are concentrated, will also make it easier for him to increase his prestige points.

However, due to the entanglement, Baibuchi finally gave up the option of going to Konoha for three reasons.

First, as the number one ninja village in Konoha, there is no shortage of talents. For Konoha’s top management, they may pay more attention to the loyalty of ninjas than their potential. As an outsider, it is difficult for them to get high-quality training in Konoha. resource.

Secondly, if you join Konoha with weird abilities, you will inevitably be suspected.

Thirdly, Konoha has Orochimaru who covets his abilities.

Ruling out the option of joining Konoha Village, Shirabuchi chose to go to the Land of Rain.

Bai Yuan chose the Land of Rain, and his target was obvious - Jiraiya, as well as Nagato, Konan, and Yahiko.

At this time, the Second Ninja War had just ended. Jiraiya was probably still staying in the Country of Rain to teach Nagato and the three of them. He went to the Country of Rain to try his luck. If he could get Jiraiya to teach him ninjutsu, he could make a lot of money. .

If he didn't meet him, he would stay in the small and chaotic country of the Rain Country and wait until the Akatsuki organization was founded to join them. With his own strength and qualifications, he would become a veteran of the Akatsuki organization in the future.

Bai Yuan made up his mind to go to the Kingdom of Rain. He walked quickly and arrived at the Kingdom of Rain not long after nightfall.

He found a hotel to rest for one night and started his journey again the next day.

Bai Yuan is not in a hurry to find Jiraiya and others. Although the Kingdom of Rain is only a small country, trying to find a few people without any information is tantamount to finding a needle in a haystack. It is better to collect intelligence while wandering around.

If you want to survive and collect intelligence, you must first make some money.

He gave the hotel proprietress 50 taels (equivalent to 500 yen), and from the hotel proprietress's mouth, he learned the location of the underground money exchange in the Land of Rain.

You can find it through the secret door of a public toilet.

The gold exchange is a place where bounty hunters exchange information, determine hunting targets, hand over targets, and obtain bounties.

Bai Yuan bought a white fox mask in the store and put it on his face, then went to the money exchange location mentioned by the landlady.

"Using the identity of a bounty hunter as a fulcrum to act in the Country of Rain is a good choice."

When Bai Yuan learned the location of the gold exchange, he traveled all the way to the location mentioned by the proprietress and opened the secret door in a specific way. Inside was a large, dark space.

Bai Yuan slowly came down the steps and looked around the surrounding environment. The space was lit with flickering candles, and there were two men doing transactions inside.

One of the men in black soon got a large bag of bounty, estimated to be several million to one million taels.

After the man in black got the bounty, he turned around and left, passing by Bai Yuan. Bai Yuan saw that this man had a pair of green eyes, which was very strange.

"It can't be Kakuzu."

Every time you enter a money exchange, you can meet characters from the plot. I really don’t know whether I should say I’m lucky or unlucky.

After the man in black left, the man in the money exchange saw Bai Yuan standing there and stepped forward.

A deep voice came from the mask:

"Exchange money or read the reward list?"

"Look at the reward."

As Bai Yuan finished speaking, the masked man took out a bounty list from the drawer of the table next to him and handed it into Bai Yuan's hand.

The bounty levels are divided into levels s, a, b, c, and d from high to low.

Looking at the portraits with different expressions on the stacks of reward lists, Bai Yuan's eyes finally landed on a B-level reward.

[Kumiyama Yuichi, gender: male, age: 39, bounty: 16 taels, bounty level: b]

[Introduction: The leader of the bandit organization on Mount Yugen on the border. It is said that his ancestors were members of a samurai family during the Warring States Period. He is good at swordsmanship. Considering the power of his organization, the reward level is set as level B]

"That's it."

Bai Yuan noted down the person's location and appearance, and headed to Yugen Mountain alone.

Chakra surged wildly under his feet, and Baiyuan quickly reached the foot of Mount Hane.

He took a moment to observe the surrounding environment. Mount Yugen is more like a small hillside than a mountain. It is a desolate small stone mountain with a steep terrain and only a small dirt road visible to the naked eye. It is possible to camp in this place. It is said that one man can block everything but ten thousand men cannot open it.

Yugen Mountain is located in a remote place, and the bandits are located in a terrain that is easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is like a stone in a pit - smelly and hard.

The officials didn't want to take care of this kind of poor and remote place. The surrounding villages were suffering from plunder by bandits, so they pooled their money together and wanted to find bounty hunters to deal with this group of bandits.

Looking at Yugen Mountain from a distance, we can clearly see that the bandits have set up their camp halfway up the mountain, blocking the only dirt road leading to the top of the mountain.

At the top of Mount Yugen is a wooden watchtower, about four or five meters high. Standing on the watchtower, the bandits' sentries can clearly observe the movements around Mount Yugen.

It can be said that this place is very difficult to fight.

"It's best to clear the observation post before carrying out the assassination."

Bai Yuan secretly said that the watchtower has an excellent view. If the sentinels here are not dealt with first and the bandits rush to camp, the bandits can easily mobilize and concentrate their troops by taking advantage of the view, making themselves surrounded, which is a big trouble.

Baiyuan quickly circled in the shadow under the stone, and went around to the shade of Yugen Mountain. He looked up. From here, you can climb directly to the observation tower on the top of the mountain. The sun cannot shine here, so it is an ideal place. aisle.

But the problem is that the terrain on this side is only steeper than the front of Yugen Mountain. It can almost be said to be a cliff with a slight slope. Ordinary people will fall if they climb the slope accidentally. Even the sentry thinks that this side There is no need to observe, there will be no fool attacking from this place.

It's a pity that Bai Yuan is not an ordinary person. He gritted his teeth and climbed up the slope. He grabbed the protruding stone with both hands, used his limbs together and activated his chakra. He climbed up the slope with difficulty and hid in the shadow under the watchtower.

After taking a short break, he glanced at the watchtower above and the camp below with excitement and nervousness in his eyes.

The hunt has begun.
