Xingliu nodded slightly, indicating his agreement with Nonou's point of view.

He also felt that the old lady's reaction was indeed somewhat contradictory, as if she was deliberately hiding something.

This further convinced them that there must be some unknown secret hidden in this town.

At this moment, governance also expressed its own views:

"It seems that this matter is somewhat related to Konoha."

As she spoke, she turned to look at Xingliu, her gaze carrying a hint of inquiry:

"Seiryu, don't you usually work with Lady Mito? Didn't you get any information about this town at all?"

Xingliu awkwardly touched his nose after hearing this.

He works with Mito? You're kidding, that's called slacking off together.

Tsunade and Nonou clearly knew the inside story, and they chuckled to themselves when they saw Seiryu's expression.

However, Nonou then stepped in to help Seiryu out of the predicament:

"The situation here has probably never been reported to the Hokage."

Tsunade frowned slightly and offered a rebuttal:

"But this is the only way to Konoha. Even if the townspeople dare not report it, those nobles and merchants probably won't care."

This sentence was like a key, unlocking Xingliu's train of thought.

He turned to look at Nono and found that her eyes were also shining with the same light.

"Who is the person in charge of receiving mission announcements from the outside world inside the Hokage Building?" Xingliu asked directly, voicing his question.

Nono nodded secretly, clearly she had thought of that too.

After a moment's thought, Tsunade responded somewhat hesitantly:

"He should be a member of the Sarutobi clan, but I must admit I don't remember his exact name."

A hint of embarrassment flashed across her face, as if she felt apologetic for her poor memory.

Suddenly, Tsunade nodded in realization, understanding what "Star Stream" referred to:

"You mean there's something wrong with this person?"

She frowned, but then immediately raised another question:

"But even if he has a problem, shouldn't the other people in the Hokage Building have heard this news? Could it be that there's something wrong with the entire Hokage Building?"

There was an air of disbelief in her voice.

Xingliu didn't give her a direct answer, even though he already had a vague idea of ​​what was going on in his mind.

"Let's go take another look around and look for other clues."

Hearing him say that, the others nodded in agreement.

They said they were looking for clues elsewhere, but Xingliu headed in one direction with a clear goal in mind.

It was as if they were certain there were clues in that place.

Along the way, some townspeople showed expressions of disgust when they saw their headbands.

This made Tsunade and the others, who had never experienced this kind of treatment before, feel somewhat uncomfortable.

This also made them even more resentful of the culprit who caused all of this.

Before long, Xingliu led them to the center of town.

The scene before them was completely different from what they had just seen.

The buildings here are tall and magnificent, a stark contrast to the dilapidated and low-rise buildings that stood before.

Passersby walked by cautiously, as if afraid of disturbing the owner of the place.

Xingliu took a deep breath. He understood that what he saw before him was enough to prove his guess.

However, he still needs a witness to silence some people.

So he led the three women deeper into the town center, and soon they arrived at the most magnificent building.

It was a huge mansion, with two armored warriors standing in front of the gate.

The three women, as if knowing what was about to happen, looked at Xingliu with some nervousness.

Xingliu chuckled softly:

"Wait here for a moment, I'll be right back."

After saying that, he slowly walked towards the mansion in front of him.

The two samurai had clearly noticed Xingliu as well, and they raised their weapons and shouted at her:

"Who are you?! Stop right now! Do you know whose territory this is?!"

However, Xingliu scoffed and then suddenly waved his hand.

In an instant, the giant dragon formed of flames roared and crashed into the gate of the mansion.

Although the two warriors were not his target, they were swept away by the powerful shockwave as the dragon passed by and slammed dozens of meters away.

With a deafening roar, the gate of the mansion was instantly swallowed up by the fiery dragon, turning it into ruins.

Dust flew everywhere, and the whole town seemed to tremble at the loud noise.

As the dust settled, Xingliu's indifferent gaze swept over everything before him.

At this moment, the people inside the mansion were also startled by the loud noise and rushed out.

A group of armored warriors rushed out first, weapons in hand, watching Xingliu warily.

Immediately afterwards, a middle-aged man with a large belly walked out of the door.

Behind him, three ninjas wearing Konoha headbands also came out.

His face was full of anger and arrogance, as if he was very unhappy that his peace and quiet had been disturbed.

When the middle-aged man realized that the troublemaker in front of the door was just a teenager, his face revealed an even more arrogant and angry expression:

"So it's you, brat, causing trouble?! Don't you know where you are?!"

However, he failed to notice that the three ninjas behind him had become terrified.

Their eyes widened as if they had seen something terrifying.

Sweat began to bead on their foreheads, and their heartbeats quickened.

They exchanged a glance, and then, without hesitation, they turned and ran, fleeing the scene without looking back.

The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment upon seeing this, then shouted angrily:

"What are you doing?! Get back here right now!"

Chapter 132 The Thousand Hands are also involved (11)

However, the three ninjas had already run far away, leaving the middle-aged man standing there with a look of anger and helplessness on his face.

Xingliu watched all of this with a cold expression, as if it were all under his control.

He snorted coldly and said disdainfully, "Do you think I don't exist?"

As he spoke, he snapped his fingers lightly.

At this moment, a sudden change occurred.

The three ninjas who had just been desperately running away suddenly appeared beside him.

A hint of relief lingered on their faces, because Xingliu hadn't chased after them.

But before they could react, something terrible happened.

Their legs fell off their bodies neatly, as if cut off by an invisible force.

All of this happened in the blink of an eye, so fast that none of them felt any pain.

But as blood splattered, they let out heart-wrenching screams.

The middle-aged man was so shocked by the horrific scene before him that he involuntarily took a step back, his anger and arrogance replaced by fear.

The surrounding samurai were also shocked by this sudden turn of events and looked at each other in disbelief.

At that moment, they felt that the weapons in their hands had become incredibly heavy.

Xingliu frowned slightly as he looked at the three people lying on the ground groaning in pain.

Then a burst of flame burned across their wounds, and they stared in horror at the flames on their legs.

But unexpectedly, instead of experiencing burning pain, they felt a warm sensation at the wound site, as if life was surging within it.

In no time, the terrible wound healed completely, leaving no scar.

This relieved them, and one of them, enduring the pain, said to Xingliu:

"Lord Xingliu, is there anything we did wrong?"

Upon hearing this, Xingliu glanced at him indifferently, the coldness in her eyes causing him to break out in a cold sweat.

"Is your surname Sarutobi or Shimura?"

Upon hearing this, the three men trembled as if struck by an electric current, and their faces instantly turned deathly pale.

Xingliu then ignored them and turned to look at the middle-aged man.

Seeing Xingliu looking at him, the middle-aged man could no longer contain his fear and roared in a fit of rage:

"What are you all standing around for?! Get him there!!!"

Upon hearing this, the samurai hesitated, each one wavering and unable to move forward.

Seeing the warriors' reaction, the middle-aged man became even more enraged. He cursed loudly:

"****, have you forgotten your families?!"

They were forced to obey when their families were threatened.

So they gripped their weapons and charged toward Xingliu with fierce expressions.

Xingliu remained expressionless as he faced the charging samurai.
