Uchiha of Zero Zone

Zhong Yan exchanged all his items for [Shadow Clone] without hesitation, and after the exchange, he finally understood why the price of a B-level ninjutsu was so outrageous.

The explanation is: because [Shadow Clone Technique] is not a ninjutsu created by the Uchiha clan, but almost every Uchiha clan member can use it, so when it was added to the [Uchiha Panel], its price also soared for this reason.

Zhong Yan: “…”

Seeing such a far-fetched explanation, Zhong Yan couldn't help but wonder if a certain land war god of Konoha was behind this, causing the price of the shadow clone to reach such an exaggerated level.

But on second thought, this ninjutsu was created by someone else and the copyright is in their hands. Moreover, given his attitude towards the Uchiha clan, it would be very good for him to be able to insert his own ninjutsu into it.

If he really knew that Zhong Yan played like this, he would have to call him an evil Uchiha.

"Amby, help me get it, I'll be back soon."

The scene returns to the present. After successfully exchanging for the shadow clone, Zhong Yan prepares to temporarily hand over the safe in his hand to Anbi, and then secretly find a place to summon the clone.

After taking the safe handed to him, Amby asked in confusion, "What are you going to do?"

Faced with such a question, Zhong Yan naturally could not tell her his real purpose. He could only think for a moment and slowly utter two words.

"Urgent urination."

The excuse seemed very hasty, but Amby nodded without even thinking about it.

Although she lacked common sense, she still knew the most basic differences between men and women, so she did not intend to stare at Zhong Yan under such circumstances.

Seeing that the other party believed him without hesitation, Zhong Yan was moved. He found a place out of her sight, then stretched out his index and middle fingers in front of him and formed a seal with one hand.

As the thought flashed through his mind, the next second, accompanied by a puff of smoke, an identity that looked exactly like Zhong Yan appeared.

While summoning the shadow clone, Zhong Yan could clearly feel that nearly half of the power in his body had been lost, which was consistent with the setting that the main body would evenly distribute chakra to the shadow clone.

However, an Uchiha with only half the strength was enough to make the entire New Eli tremble.

"Ling and the others should be looking for us in the cave. Think of a way to guide them to us."

The shadow clone has independent consciousness, so when it heard Zhong Yan's order, the shadow clone couldn't help but raise a brow, but in the end it didn't say much. It just opened the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan and used Kamui to leave here.

As for why Zhong Yan asked him to guide Ling over instead of taking them both away directly, there was a reason for that.

Once they leave the cave, the few people who don't know the news will continue to wander in the cave. They will have to wait until Zhong Yan informs Zhe and Ling of their successful escape before they can evacuate from the cave.

Of course, the most important reason was to allow Uchiha to meet them.

Only in this way can Zhong Yan and Uchiha be completely separated in their hearts.

......

At the same time, on the other side of the cave, following Nicole's instructions, Billy had gathered more than half of the civilians around him.

There are a large number of these civilians, and some of them are not adaptable to the ether, so they are gradually corroded into skeletons over time.

Every time this happened, Billy would use a bullet to end the other person's pain.

At this moment, he suddenly saw a woman in plain clothes passing by not far away. Thinking that she was also a civilian, Billy immediately stepped forward and called out to her, "Hey! Don't go any further! Come over here!"

However, what he didn't know was that the woman was actually Zhu Yuan who was also sucked into the void.

What was even more unexpected to him was that Zhu Yuan was also a sheriff who specialized in investigating and arresting cave thieves like him.

Zhu Yuan, who heard the shout, hesitated for a moment and then walked towards Billy.

Soon, she saw the group of civilians that Billy had gathered, and couldn't help but ask, "Are you... a Hollow Investigator?"

Zhu Yuan's first reaction to Billy being able to do such a good thing was naturally not to think that he was a cave robber. Besides the sheriff, the only person willing to help ordinary people in the cave was the cave investigator.

"That's right! I am the Hollow Investigator, but compared to this, I prefer to hear people call me the Star Knight!" Billy crossed his arms and turned his head to one side with some pride.

Nicole had asked him to disguise himself as a Hollow Investigator in advance, so he naturally followed Zhu Yuan's words.

But soon, the other party's self-introduction made him stunned on the spot: "Hello, I am Zhu Yuan, the captain of the criminal investigation special task force of the Janus District Public Security Bureau. Nice to meet you, uh... Your Excellency the Star Knight."

"You...you are the sheriff?!" Billy said with his eyes wide open, somewhat incredulous.

He never imagined that just saying hello would result in the appearance of a sheriff.

You know, his real identity now is a cave robber. If Zhu Yuan knew about it, he would probably be arrested on the spot.

By then, the entire Cunning Rabbit House would probably be in trouble.

Therefore, when talking to Zhu Yuan again, Billy's tone was obviously more guilty: "Hello...Hello, Mr. Sheriff."

"You gathered all these civilians here, right? I happen to have quite a few of them there too. How about we gather these civilians together and wait for the assistance from the Hollow Investigation Association? You... must have been accidentally drawn into the Hollow, right? After all, I didn't see you wearing the association's protective clothing."

Generally speaking, investigators from the Cavity Investigation Association will wear professional protective clothing when entering a cavity to ensure that the harm of cavity erosion is minimized.

What's more, some people would take some drugs to resist ether erosion before entering the void, but such drugs are very expensive and not affordable for ordinary people.

"Oh, yes, yes, I was just wandering around Fourteenth Street, and I happened to be sucked into a hollow. I didn't bring any investigators or anything like that, but I did bring enough ammunition. It was such a coincidence, hahaha..."

As Billy spoke, he reached out and scratched the back of his extremely hard head. He didn't know how a robot like him could have such rich expressions and emotions like a human.

At the same time, he was also cursing his bad luck in his heart. How could a sheriff be involved in the Hollow?

"Boss, come and save me!"
