Chapter 18 - 18

Chapter 18: A Man Cannot Become Rich Without Unexpected Wealth, And a Horse Cannot Grow Fat Without Night Grass

Inside the cave, the fighting continued.

However, the situation now is very different from before.

After Fujiwara Tetsuya defeated his opponent, he teamed up with Aburame Wooden Golem to defeat the other two wandering ninjas.

Be able to free up our hands and work together to deal with Harukawa Nomaru.

Uchiha Mikoto's condition is not good.

Her black hair was disheveled, and strands of blood were flowing out from the corners of her mouth.

Although there is Sharingan to restrain it.

But the gap in strength is not so easy to make up.

In the taijutsu battle, Uchiha Mikoto was almost crushed by Harukawa Nomaru.

"Little devils of Konoha! You deserve to die, you all deserve to die!"

"Why! Why do you have to provoke me!"

"Why, you won't even give me a chance to live!"

Looking around, I saw cold bodies everywhere.

Harukawa Nomaru's eyes became more and more crazy.

"Earth Style - Earth Wall"

At the critical moment, the true self of Sunset hidden in the dark took action.

The leaping earth wall stopped the powerful earth dragon.

At the critical moment, Fujiwara Tetsuya and two others were rescued.

"Jōnin!"

The moment Harukawa Nomaru saw Yuhi Mami, he quickly flashed backwards and his fingers moved rapidly, obviously preparing some powerful ninjutsu.

"Quick enough reaction! But, it's too late!"

"Because, the moment I appeared, you were already caught in my illusion."

Fujiwara Tetsuya felt his eyelids droop as he listened to the voice.

When I opened my eyes again, I was already outside the cave.

Not far away was Harukawa Nomaru who was being interrogated by Sunset's true self.

As for Uchiha Mikoto and Aburame Wooden Golem, they were comforting the girls, women and children who had just been rescued from the cave.

"So, Murano Jihei was your former leader?"

"That's right!"

"We came here again because we knew he was the mayor of Sakura Falls."

"I wanted him to lead us again! However, after more than ten years of peace, that b*****d Murano Jihei has completely lost the honor of being a ninja, and only wants to protect those stupid residents of Sakura Falls Town."

"The traces of ninja fighting near that town..."

"It's our fault too!"

"That day, Murano Jihei did not agree to our proposal, so we thought about forcibly taking Murano Jihei away! But who would have thought that after more than ten years, Murano Jihei's strength has not decreased at all!"

"We are defeated!"

"But we won't give up! That's why we use the residents of Sakura Falls as a bargaining chip and keep asking for money!"

"The purpose is to force Murano Haruhei to submit."

Harukawa Nomaru obviously has an obsession with Murano Jihei, his former leader, that is beyond imagination.

However, think about the so-called blind loyalty in this era.

Fujiwara Tetsuya also let it go.

"Okay! I understand!"

"In exchange, I will leave you with an intact body!"

Looking at Harukawa Nomaru in front of her, there was not a trace of pity in Sunset Shin-I's eyes.

Harukawa Nomaru has his own persistence, and that's right!

But he was wrong in that he did it to achieve his own goal.

He inflicted his evil on a group of unrelated people.

Yes, that's right!

Wrong, it's wrong!

Since you have made a mistake, you should pay a sufficient price.

"Thanks!"

"If possible, please allow me to be buried with my comrades who died in battle."

"Tetsuya!"

"Yes, Mr. Xiyang!"

"I'll leave this person to you! Is that ok?"

"It's no problem, Mr. Xiyang!"

"I'll take care of it!"

Just as the setting sun was setting, I was still considering whether my request seemed too urgent.

Fujiwara Tetsuya suppressed the joy in his heart and pushed Harukawa Nomaru towards the jungle not far away.

Harukawa Nomaru is quite powerful!

At least it is at the top level of Elite Chunin.

Killing it will definitely provide a lot of killing value.

[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for killing an Elite Chunin and gaining 97 kill points.]

97 points?

That's quite a lot!

Listening to the pleasant figure in his mind, Fujiwara Tetsuya's mouth corners slowly curled up.

Including the four wandering ninjas from before.

His killing value at this moment has reached 185 points.

For the sake of kill value!

I'll just bury you together!

After kicking Harukawa Maru's body, Fujiwara Tetsuya found a soft place and buried Harukawa Maru and the seven wandering ninjas together.

As for those ordinary bandits, they obviously won't receive such preferential treatment!

Their final fate was to become food for the wild beasts in the mountains.

...

Sakura fell into the small town.

Because they were carrying twenty or thirty rescued hostages!

The speed of Fujiwara Tetsuya and his team was undoubtedly slowed down a lot.

It was not until the evening that we finally arrived back at the small town of Sakura.

"Nanako!"

"Ichiro!"

"Thank you! Master Ninja of Konoha!"

Family reunion!

Of course, tears are indispensable.

However, neither Sunset Shinmi, Uchiha Mikoto, nor Aburame Wooden Golem showed the slightest interest in this touching scene.

After a few polite words, he carried Fujiwara Tetsuya and walked towards Murano Jihei's residence.

"You're here!"

"It seems that Nomaru and the others were successfully dealt with by the four of you."

Regarding the arrival of Sunset Shinmi, Fujiwara Tetsuya and the other two.

Murano Jihei had obviously anticipated this.

"Mr. Murano! I need an explanation!"

"Before that, you concealed the fact that there were seven ninjas among the bandits?"

"You should know what this means."

Looking at the teacup in front of him, there was not the slightest fluctuation in Sunset True Self's eyes.

However, the aura around him was constantly rising.

Even though Sunset True I tried my best to restrain myself, Fujiwara Tetsuya, who was in the back, still felt a sense of oppression like a mountain collapsing.

"I'm sorry for causing you trouble!"

"It was not my intention to hide these things!"

"However, the current Sakura Town can only barely raise enough money for the C-rank mission."

"So, in order to resolve the threat posed by Nomaru and the others! I can only conceal some information!"

Questioning my true self in the face of the sunset.

Murano Jihei gave a bitter smile and knelt down.

Obviously he was forced into no choice.

"With your strength, it shouldn't be that difficult to deal with those stray ninjas, right?"

At this time!

Sunset's true self finally realized the aura that Murano Jihei had undoubtedly revealed.

That is the real aura that only a strong person who has reached the level of Jōnin possesses.

"If I were a few years younger, it wouldn't be a problem!"

"But now, my condition has begun to decline!"

"What's more, Nomaru and his men hold many innocent residents in their hands! If it's not necessary, I don't want to fight them to the death."

"This matter! In the final analysis, it was all my fault. It has nothing to do with the residents of Sakura Falls Town! Please don't take your anger out on them."

"I will report this matter to the Hokage-sama truthfully! Someone will negotiate with you on how to deal with it when the time comes!"

"But don't worry! We are Konoha's ninjas, not wandering ninjas!"

Holding the hot cup of tea, Sunset's true self didn't say anything more.

After drinking it all, he took Fujiwara Tetsuya and the other two and left Sakura Town directly.
