Naruto: In the name of the Senju, he made the ninja world tremble.

In the chilly morning wind, the caravan waded across several streams and headed towards the valley ahead. Everyone in the caravan gripped their weapons tightly, wary of any bandits who might suddenly appear.

Standing on the sheer cliffs on both sides of the canyon, looking down at the winding dirt road and the caravan moving forward like a tortoise, Qianyu looked around with a sense of helplessness.

These bandits actually knew to change locations; they seem quite clear-headed. But this makes things difficult for Qianyu and the others.

If they cannot find the bandits, Chiba and his team's mission will be downgraded to a C-rank escort mission, which will also affect his Chunin Exam.

However, since things have come to this, he can only take it one step at a time. In a place like the Land of Rivers, the Mountain and River Merchant Guild is definitely among the best. He doesn't believe that a cat won't eat fish.

With that thought, Qianyu formed a hand seal, and a wisp of signal smoke spread across the sky, transmitting information to the opposite cliff.

A few seconds later, upon hearing a whistle in response from the other side, Qianyu leaped down the steep rock face with the agility of a monkey.

Watching the three figures nimbly approach the Chamber of Commerce's convoy on the cliff, President Yamakawa smiled, thinking that his journey had been quite smooth.

Normally, let alone the bandits here, even when crossing the bridge, the River Kingdom's army would waste a lot of time just checking them, and if they were too rough, it would cause losses.

At this point, you need to give the kid some money to get rid of him, otherwise, after a few times, you won't be able to afford to waste time.

This time, it wasn't necessary. As the Konoha ninjas passed by, the River Country's army sent them away as if they were plague carriers.

Thinking of this, Yamakawa looked at the three of them, who had just returned to the car, and then turned to Genma Shiranui. "Yanagawa Town ahead is the last large gathering place before we reach the Land of Wind. Ninja, how about we rest there?"

"The hot springs there are absolutely amazing, and there's also a brothel, cough cough cough!"

Seemingly realizing that there were still three teenagers present, Yamakawa stopped talking in time, but he did agree with what Genma Shiranui said.

Whether or not there are flowers in the brothel is not that interesting; the main thing is that you can soak in the hot springs to relax, which is a rare treat.

"Chiba, what are you thinking about?" After watching President Yamakawa leave, Uchiha Tsuki turned to look at the silent Chiba and took out a handkerchief to wipe Kiriyu's face.

Seeing this, Iruka quickly squeezed closer to Chiyu. It would be truly unjust if she were stabbed by Yue Yidao on the bumpy carriage.

"Does Chiba have any ideas? Tell me," Genma Shiranui clearly wanted to cultivate Chiba in all aspects, so he asked him to offer his thoughts on many things.

"Teacher Genma, I was just wondering what the bandits would do after they got the goods?" Chiyu sat cross-legged, propped her chin up, and looked at the others.

"Then naturally we'll sell the goods for cash," Iruka said, realizing what was going on. The caravan that was ambushed last time was no less powerful than the Yamakawa Trading Company; most people couldn't handle so much cargo.

"Yanagawa Town?!"

Uchiha Tsuki's questioning tone rang out along with Iruka's affirmative voice, and Shiranui Genma also showed a confident smile on his face.

"Yay! My Rain-Slaying Blade can be sharpened!"

Uchiha Tsukuyomi was so happy that she waved her right hand at Kiriyu, which startled Chiyu, who grabbed her right wrist. This little tiger was too reckless.

After half a day's journey, the caravan finally arrived in Yanagawa Town, and everyone's faces showed a relieved expression, finally no longer having to endure the elements.

Because of the weakness of the River Country, the power of the daimyo, apart from the symbolic taxation, was limited to protecting their own shogunate with their armed forces.

Therefore, places like Yanagawa Town are most prone to crime, and all sorts of people have contributed to a distorted kind of prosperity here.

The shady businesses like casinos and red-light districts are thriving, while legitimate industries can't survive at all. Qianyu sat in the car, watching the pedestrians carrying knives and sticks on the roadside. The martial arts atmosphere here is quite strong.

"Chiyu, look! What a tall person!" Iruka shouted, pointing to the side of the street, while quickly flipping through his notebook to take notes.

"Are people so blatant about finding targets these days?" Qianyu asked, watching the burly man carrying a coffin on his back while eating, his gaze fixed on the mountain caravan.

Looking at the other person's large, bony hands and the iron coffin behind them, I realized that only a ninja using special techniques would do this, so I felt no surprise at all.

Just as Qianyu was about to wait for the other party to come to her door, the powerful ghost by the roadside seemed to have thought of something and opened a long tube next to the coffin behind him.

Then he took out a water jug ​​from his body and poured the red liquid into it, and a slight friction sound immediately came from inside the coffin.

"Chiyu, what's wrong?"

Uchiha Yue watched as the previously lazy Chiba suddenly straightened up, staring intently at the burly man opposite him, a strange joy flashing in his eyes.

So that's the surprise! This mission had an unexpected bonus; it seems the other party has some connections.

Qianyu swallowed hard, a rare glint of greed flashing in his eyes. These people were bandits, they had to be. They might not be the ones who stole the goods, but they had items belonging to the Thousand Hands Clan, and those items should be returned to their rightful owner.

Driven by this desire, Chiba sought out her teacher, Genma Shiranui, since she didn't yet know his abilities or the number of people he could command.

Half an hour later, the Poison Ghost, sitting in the main seat, heard the message from the Power Ghost and knew in his heart that he had chosen his target.

"Snake Ghost, Snake Ghost?" the Poison Ghost called out several times, but no one answered. He turned around and saw that the Snake Ghost had vanished without a trace.

"While you were deep in thought, the Poison Demon and the Snake Demon secretly slipped away."

The powerful ghost's gruff voice reminded him, causing the poison ghost's forehead veins to bulge. In the end, however, he could only give up helplessly and wait for the snake ghost to return that night to make arrangements for what to do next.

Just after the poison demon left, Genma Shiranui, who was using the Transformation Technique on the rooftop, also showed a look of surprise. These people were not ninjas, and he could not sense any fluctuations in chakra.

Meanwhile, the snake demon, who was strolling around, did not notice Qian Yu following behind him. In fact, even after Qian Yu had openly walked past him, the snake demon still did not notice him.

Qianyu was also a little unsure. Although she had changed her clothes, the other party hadn't noticed anything amiss.

However, Qianyu was not one to dawdle. The next second, a drunken man took his place and crashed hard into the snake demon.

"roll!"

The snake demon's right arm made a strange arc, blasting the drunkard away, and then it left on its own.

The drunkard, who had struggled on the ground for a while before finally getting up, staggered into the alley next door.

"This snake smell, and that murky chakra... Damn, it's an experimental product. Which scientist from Konoha betrayed the village and created this thing? No wonder there's that thing here."

Knowing that the other party had no other ninja power, Chiba smiled. Good thing.
