"They are indeed the Cloud Ninjas." Namikaze Minato said this after examining the bodies of the five bandit ninjas.
There was a burst of applause and Minato Namikaze turned around, only to see the little old man sitting on the bicycle frame, looking at them with satisfaction.
"Very good, very good. You are worthy of being the elite of Konoha. You are really amazing." Kaito smiled and applauded.
"The entire battle was fought in an orderly manner, and the convoy suffered almost no damage, which was beyond my expectation. At first, I thought that at least 30% of the goods would be lost. I have to admit that I underestimated you before."
"Maybe I should give you some extra rewards? What do you want? Money? Jewelry? Or beautiful women?" Kaito asked, and it didn't look like a casual joke.
"You're too kind. This is what we should do. As for additional rewards, you can sponsor Konoha Village. Our village warmly welcomes you." Namikaze Minato replied.
"Forget it then." Kaito naturally had no interest in helping Konoha develop or anything.
The convoy stopped for a long time to repair the frame and level the road. Akimichi Choza helped lift the carriage that was stuck in the crack. It was really convenient for this big guy to do this kind of thing.
Speaking of which, with this carrying ability, you can almost become a billionaire just by moving bricks on Earth.
The convoy repaired and the Cloud Ninja fled. After the remaining five Cloud Ninja ran ten kilometers, they stopped to rest.
"Damn Konoha ninjas." One of the Cloud Ninjas shouted angrily.
It's a real shame that they didn't kill a single enemy but lost five of their companions.
What was even more shameful was that not only did they lose five of their companions, they also failed to destroy the convoy, which meant that they gave away five lives in vain.
"That is the Flying Thunder God Technique." The second Cloud Ninja bit his nails and said with fear on his face.
"Flying Thunder God Jutsu?" asked Cloud Ninja No. 3 in confusion.
"Don't you know? That is the ninjutsu of the Second Hokage, the real instant body-shifting jutsu, a ninjutsu that can achieve spatial teleportation. If that guy grows up, he will be another terrifying enemy like the Second Hokage." Ninja No. 2 said worriedly.
"Its most powerful aspect is not when fighting alone, but in strategic terms. It is a ninjutsu that is as deterrent as a tailed beast. With the Flying Thunder God Technique, Konoha can gather all the strong men together in the war, and use the Flying Thunder God Technique wherever they are needed. If, we go to war with Konoha again, then based on the current situation of our village..." The number two ninja became more and more worried as he spoke.
The other Cloud Ninjas also looked worried after hearing this.
It has been more than 20 years since the First Ninja World War, which is not a long time. Everyone present has more or less heard about how powerful Konoha was during the First Ninja World War. That was a single village challenging the four major ninja villages, and they won. The most important thing about this was the existence of the Flying Thunder God Technique.
"Are you still worried about the village at this time? You should worry about yourselves." Suddenly a woman's laughing voice was heard.
The five Cloud Ninjas were shocked. They wanted to stand up, but found that for some reason, their bodies were stiff and they could not move.
"Shadow Binding Technique?" The Cloud Ninja thought to himself. This was the signature technique of the Nara clan of Konoha.
It was dark and the sun had already set, so they didn't notice that their shadows were connected to anything.
In the bushes not far away, dozens of shadow rats surrounded the five Cloud Ninjas. Their shadows extended and connected the Cloud Ninjas. They did not move, and it was they who maintained the shadow binding technique.
"Mu...Ye..." the Cloud Ninja screamed angrily and hysterically.
Several figures wearing Konoha green vests and forehead protectors walked out of the woods. Their faces were covered with masks and it was impossible to tell whether they were male or female.
The five Cloud Ninjas did not escape and were killed without any resistance.
After confirming the death of five people, those "Konoha Ninjas" began to falsify the scene. They created traces of a fierce battle, and then threw down a Konoha forehead protector and half of a broken Konoha green vest.
Finally, they took away five bodies.
Watching all this through the shadow mouse, Kaito smiled slightly, and then yawned lazily.
Those Konoha ninjas were naturally disguised as Kaito's shadow guards. Their purpose was to confuse any Cloud ninjas who were able to escape.
And if no one escapes, then we can fake the scene as we are doing now, wait for the follow-up personnel of the Cloud Ninja to come and investigate, and let the Hidden Cloud Village understand the "truth" themselves.
Kaito did this not to provoke a dispute between the Hidden Cloud Village and Konoha. In fact, he didn't need to provoke it at all, as the relationship between the two ninja villages was extremely bad.
The reason why he did this was still to hide the true strength of the Shadow Guard.
A true ninja must hide in the dark. Only the ninja whose existence is not discovered by the enemy is the best ninja.
By the way, in order to hide their identities, the Shadow Guards now replace the Ninja Rats in their bodies once a year, because that way the bulge in their bellies won't be too obvious.
After a night's rest, the convoy continued its journey and successfully arrived at Daimyo Castle in the Moon Kingdom.
The daimyo of the Moon Kingdom is a skinny man. This guy used to work with the Lightning Kingdom to deal with the Soup Kingdom, but he actually doesn't have any courage. When Kaito came in person to scare him, he just did whatever Kaito said.
In this way, the trip to the Moon Kingdom ended perfectly.
However, the greatest gain of this trip was not the various terms agreed to by the Moon Kingdom, but witnessing Minato Namikaze's Flying Thunder God Technique and feeling the spatial fluctuations from it.
