Chapter 87 the Real Mastermind Behind the Scenes!
The progress of the bamboo raft is completed!
Faster than Fujiwara Tetsuya expected!
Fortunately!
Today's wind direction! Good wind speed!
There is no need to worry about the wind and waves!
"Tetsuya! There's no trace of the axle!"
After crossing the lake!
All traces of what I saw before disappeared without a trace!
Team 13 searched carefully along the lake for a long time!
Also failed to find any clues!
"Tetsuya-kun! Do you want to continue searching?!"
Gradually! Uchiha Mikoto! Uta-ne Hishii! Aburame Wooden Golem gathered around Fujiwara Tetsuya!
There is a hint of caution in his eyes!
But there was no intention of backing down!
"Chase! But not now!"
"That Rain Shinobi can completely erase all traces!"
"That means they have already met up with the Rain Shinobi!"
"The enemy we are going to face next may be more difficult than what Jōnin said in the intelligence!"
"Everyone take a three-hour break!"
"Wait until it's completely dark! Then we'll chase westward!"
Calculate according to the opponent's speed!
They are not far away from the Rain Shinobi team in front!
If we run at full speed, we can catch up with the opponent in two hours at most!
but!
Looking at the sky in the distance!
Fujiwara Tetsuya's expression became extremely serious!
Ahead! The border between the Land of Fire and the Land of Rain! Not far away!
As time goes by!
The sky in the distance gradually darkened!
After lighting a bonfire!
Team 13 has been away from Konoha ever since!
Finally, I got to eat some hot rice balls!
Although it was a bit annoying, it didn't affect the mood of the four people eating!
...
Night! Although it has a significant impact on the vision!
But the pitch-black night also provided considerable shelter to Fujiwara Tetsuya and the other three!
The chances of the four people being discovered are greatly reduced!
But! Some things are beyond ordinary people's expectations!
According to Fujiwara Tetsuya's estimate!
They should have run into the Rain Shinobi Village team an hour and a half ago!
But! As they searched everywhere!

Nor was there any trace of that team found!
"Tetsuya! We've searched the north! No trace of Rain Shinobi!"
"We've also searched the south side! Still nothing!"
Under the cover of night!
The expressions of the four people gradually became ugly!
"Tetsuya-kun! Could it be that the ninjas from Rain Shinobi Village traveled overnight?"
"So they distanced themselves from us!"
"Why don't we continue searching for a distance to the west!"
On the side! Tatene Ryoi stood on tiptoe and got close to Fujiwara Tetsuya's face!
It seems like he wants to comfort Fujiwara Tetsuya!
However! Fujiwara Tetsuya at this time obviously didn't have this idea!
"No! We can't go any further west!"
"Maybe! We were wrong! Senior Long and the others were also wrong!"
After a while of thought!
Fujiwara Tetsuya's eyes suddenly flashed with light!
Obviously he figured something out!
"Tetsuya! What do you mean by that?"
"Did you discover something?"
Fujiwara Tetsuya's words immediately attracted the attention of the three people!
It also made Uchiha Mikoto glance at Tatene Hishii just now!
It was taken back instantly!
"That's right! There was a discovery!"
"No! It should be said that there are new speculations!"
Facing the gazes of three people!
Fujiwara Tetsuya suddenly took out a topographic map from his arms!
It marked the nearby mountains, rivers, and passages of all sizes!
"Actually! We are all blinded by preconceived notions!"
"Because we learned from Oboro Jōnin that the culprit behind the looting of the goods in Shufeng City was a ninja from Rain Shinobi Village!"
"So! We just headed west! We completely ruled out other possibilities!"
"Tetsuya! You don't have to look at us! Just keep talking!"
Look at the eyes cast by Fujiwara Tetsuya!
Aburame Wooden Golem is still a little confused!
Obviously failed to understand what Fujiwara Tetsuya meant!
As for Uchiha Mikoto! Uta-ne Hishii! They also lowered their eyes one after another!
It seems that because I was unable to help Fujiwara Tetsuya, I also had some other thoughts!
"Okay! I'll tell you right away!"
At the urging of Aburame Wooden Golem!
Fujiwara Tetsuya could only sigh helplessly!
You must know!
Using your brain is very tiring!
"According to my guess, the mastermind behind the looting of Northwind City's goods was not from Rain Shinobi Village!"

"Even if we really chase them to the border between the Land of Fire and the Land of Rain!"
"There won't be any trace!"
"Not from Rain Shinobi Village?"
"But! Oboro Jōnin clearly said..."
"Wait, Tetsuya-kun! What you mean is that someone pretended to be a ninja from Rain Shinobi Village and looted the goods in Shuofeng City?"
At this time!
Uchiha Mikoto! Aburame Wooden Golem! Even Uchiha Hisaie seems to be slow to react!
Seems to understand something!
"Tetsuya! We understand what you mean!"
"But who sent these ninjas pretending to be from Rain Shinobi Village?!"
"Also! What's their purpose in impersonating Rain Shinobi Village ninjas?!"
"Wooden Golem! That's why I showed you this topographic map!"
"The mastermind behind this! And the direction we should pursue next! It's hidden in this topographic map!"
Under the puzzled gazes of the three people!
Fujiwara Tetsuya's finger fell on the location of a lake!
"This lake! It's the lake we just crossed!"
"Yes! It's the lake we just crossed!"
"Look here!"
"Although there are mountains separating the north and south of this lake, after crossing the lake!"
"Except for this passage to the west, the northern area is still open to traffic!"
"At that time, all our attention was focused on the western region, and we neglected to investigate the northern region!"
"Wait! Tetsuya-kun!"
"The northern region! You mean!"
"The mastermind behind the looting of the goods from the Shufeng City! Are those people pretending to be Rain Shinobi from the Kusagakure Village?"
Aburame Wooden Golem is still a little confused!
But! Uchiha Mikoto was the first to react!
Intelligence is something that cannot be cultivated overnight!
"Right! Mikoto is right!"
"If my speculation is correct! The mastermind this time! Is the ninja from Kusagakure!"
Go north from the lake! Follow the mountains! Directly to the land of grass!
If it were any other ninja village!
Fujiwara Tetsuya may still be cautious!
But for the Kusagakure Village!
Fujiwara Tetsuya is full of confidence and assurance!
After all, that was the era of World War II and World War III! The most famous fence-sitter!
There are no rules! Everything starts from the immediate interests!
"Wooden Golem! As for why they are pretending to be ninjas from Rain Shinobi Village!"
"I don't need to explain it anymore!"
"No! No thanks!"
Facing Fujiwara Tetsuya's gaze, Aburame Wooden Golem waved his hands helplessly!
If I had explained it earlier, he would have understood!
The reason why those grass ninjas did this was nothing more than to frame someone and confuse the public!
