Feng squinted his eyes and continued to walk quietly to the only open shop at the mont. It was a tea house, but even the tea house looked a little deserted.
The teahouse owner was a little surprised when he saw Feng co to the door, but after seeing Feng's money, he quickly served him tea and so snacks.
Hidden in the shadows.
Several pairs of eyes stared at Feng as he walked inside the teahouse.
After a while, one of them quickly disappeared in the rain and ca to a hut to the north and jumped directly onto the second floor, and said.
"Boss... a ninja ca."
"Ninja?"
A person sitting in the room with a scar on his face suddenly opened his eyes and said in a deep voice, "What does he look like?"
"A kid, he should be around twelve to thirteen years old, he's not wearing a forehead protector so we don't know if he ca from Hidden Rock or any of the other four Great Villages. He also doesn't seem to co from Hidden Rain.
The leader narrowed his eyes and said, "He ca alone?"
A ninja suddenly appeared here and wasn't wearing his forehead protector, what's more, it's a kid. Sothing is wrong.
The subordinate nodded and a flash of cold light flickered in his eyes, and said: "Yes. However, I'm not sure if he noticed our presence...Boss should we get rid of him?"
"No."
The leader shook his head and said in a deep voice, "Call everyone, we're leaving."
The subordinate was taken aback.
It's just a kid, and he doesn't even know their existence, and even if he did find them out, it wasn't enough to make their entire group leave. Is their boss being a little paranoid?
The leader stood up with his eyes flickering and said: "Now!"
He wasn't sure if the kid was just passing by or was here for them. But due to the current circumstance of the entirety of the NInja World, he needed to be extra cautious. So he decided to leave for now and just co back half a month later.
He was a deserter from Hidden Rock village during the Second Ninja War, and since then, he created this small group and survived by relying on ultimate caution!
He would avoid any fights regarding ninjas as much as possible.
Especially now that an unknown ninja barged in their territory
Otherwise, if their tracks were traced by so ninjas, calamity would befall them. So he wouldn't want to provoke soone even if he ca from just a small village much less the ones that ca from one of the Great Villages.
"Understood."
After a mont of hesitation, the subordinate responded and quickly left.
After his subordinate left, the leader took out a large bag from the cabinet and placed stacks of banknotes inside along with a long wooden box.
After a while.
Nearly a dozen ninjas wearing hats and raincoats have gathered in the leader's hut.
"Boss, it's just a kid, why do we need to leave?"
"Yeah boss, and that kid might not even be here for us and was just passing by, we can just ignore him."
His subordinates frowned and raised their objections.
Even if they don't know the origin and purpose of the kid coming here, leaving is a bit much. After all, the current state of the entire Ninja World is in turmoil because of the incoming war, leaving this place might be dangerous for them, and if they left, what if they encounter an army of ninjas from one of the villages? That would be catastrophic for their group.
"...If so of you want to stay, then go ahead and stay."
The leader walked away with the large bag on his back. He didn't care about the others' opinions and said indifferently, "Those who wants to follow , let's go."
After saying this, the leader left his hut.
So of the others who were left in the courtyard looked at each other. After a while of hesitation, they still followed their leader. The others who remained were still in the midst of a dilemma.
"Boss is just too cautious."
"It's just a kid anyways, if he's so worried that we'll be exposed, then we can just kill that brat."
"You're right. We are now in the midst of war, even if it's soone from one of the Great Villages, they wouldn't care about the death of a single ninja and waste their manpower to investigate."
The remaining people looked at each other and finally made a decision.
We need to quietly kill that kid!
There may even be unexpected gains.
...
By a river on the east of the village.
The leader along with the n that followed him ca all the way here and was about to cross the river when they stopped abruptly.
On the other side of the river, they don't know when but a figure is standing there. He looked like a teenager at most, he wasn't wearing a hat so his silver hair was soaking wet due to the rain.
It was Feng.
However, Feng has a strange expression.
He stood on the other side of the river while staring at the group's leader, and said, "It's not without reason that your group still survived until now..."
This guy actually ran away imdiately after hearing news that an unknown individual entered their territory!
If it weren't for this guy's subordinates that wanted to assassinate him at the teahouse but was then defeated and tortured by him for information, then this group would really have escaped quietly!
But what's the most surprising thing is.
They don't even know who Feng is or from what village he ca from. But just because of the sole reason that he was a ninja, they imdiately fled without hesitation!
Even Madara Ucicha would pale in comparison to your cautiousness! (Editors Note: I really didn't understand what the author ant in the MTL translation of this part, so I just put what I thought he wanted to express. LOL!)
"Do you have the Sword of Kusanagi?"
Feng asked straightforwardly.
The subordinates of the leader on the other side looked at Feng and after hearing him, soone couldn't help but say: "Aren't you a little too arrogant for a kid?"
But just after the subordinates' voice fell, the leader suddenly withdrew a long wooden box from his bag and threw it at Feng. As the box flew in the air, it opened mid flight and a sword ca out and landed directly in front of Feng.
Seeing this, not only his subordinates, but even Feng was startled.
"Take it."
After the leader said this in a low voice, he imdiately fled to the distance.
Silence.
The remaining subordinates looked at this scene dumbfounded and were rooted in place for a while.
This little devil ca for their boss's sword but their boss directly threw it and ran away? Who the heck is this kid?!
"Tsk! Tsk! Tsk! Interesting..."
Feng took the Sword of Kusanagi and after a mont, he couldn't help but give a slight chuckle. It was the first ti he encountered such an interesting individual.
He was ready to go kill and retrieve the Sword, but the other party just directly gave it to him without the slightest bit of hesitation. This was not within his expectation.
"..."
The remaining subordinates of the leader stared at the Sword of Kusanagi in Feng's hand after being taken aback, then at the sa ti their eyes shone with greed!
Sword of Kusanagi!
If we get and sell it, we can spend half of our life in riches and not be bothered about anything, we don't need to do these dangerous underground missions just to earn money for a living!
They always knew that the Sword of Kusanagi was in their boss's hands before. But they didn't dare covet it or even imagine stealing it from him because they know the strength of their boss. But now, their boss just freely gave the sword to a brat!
The kid in front of them is probably from one of the Great Ninja Villages, so even their boss does not want to provoke him.
However...
The greater the danger the risk the greater the reward!
If we kill this kid, take the Sword of Kusanagi and sell it in the black market, then disappear. Then even those from the Great Village will have a hard ti to track them down!
After a while, soone finally made a decision and took a deep breath, the hesitation in his eyes finally disappeared and took out his kunai as the Chakra in his body surged.
