Naruto: I, the villain template, was hailed as a savior.

Chapter 174 The money the Land of Fire gives you will become bullets you fire at him.

"..."

Miyajo En stared blankly at the headless corpse with a stunned expression and vacant eyes. The faint red light shining from the sky made his blood-stained face appear both light and shadow.

It was at this moment that the explosion came from the horizon, a thousand meters away, along the fiery clouds in the sky and along the dimly lit city.

The sound, like a resounding bell, brought Miyajo En back to his senses. As if waking from a dream, he turned his head with a shocked expression and looked into the distance, as if he could vaguely see the standing, drifting red figure a thousand meters away.

In his hand, it seemed he was holding something taller than the figure.

What exactly is that thing?

Are those ninja tools used by the Sky Ninja?

But didn't the intelligence say that only kunai guns were available?

How could such trash ninja tools possibly hit a target from a kilometer away?

If he wasn't mistaken, wasn't that bullet also imbued with Wind Release chakra?

The scene kept replaying in Yuya Shiro's mind: the sight of Huizhi's shiny bald head exploding before his eyes, and the endless stream of questions almost blowing his head off.

But the only thing he was certain of now was that even if he were to replace Huizhi standing there, he would have absolutely no way to stop the bullet that was imbued with and condensed wind-style chakra.

Given that terrifying rate of fire, unless he remained constantly alert, he would have died just like Huizhi, dying the instant he sensed death approaching, without having any time to react.

Perhaps he had time to adjust his body slightly, so that he wouldn't have died as miserably as Huizhi.

But that's already the limit.

"hiss."

Yuya Shiro shuddered, feeling a chill run down his spine. He whispered, "When you encounter this monster, the only thing you can do is hide. Only after dodging the first hit can you try to find cover or disrupt its line of sight to close the distance."

Yuya Shiro, who is currently still engaged in the black market, subconsciously began to analyze the advantages and disadvantages of this ninja tool.

Generally speaking, ninjutsu with an attack range exceeding ten meters can be classified as ranged ninjutsu.

Ninjutsu within five meters is classified as close-range ninjutsu, while ninjutsu between five and ten meters is classified as mid-range ninjutsu.

Ninjas use these three ranges of ninjutsu to assess their own and their enemies' characteristics and formulate appropriate combat tactics.

Generally speaking, ninjas who are skilled in long-range ninjutsu have an advantage in combat compared to mid-range and close-range ninjas.

Even ninjas follow the principle that an inch longer means an inch stronger.

Ninja tools like these, which can accurately snipe enemies from a distance of over a kilometer, can immediately relocate even if the enemy detects their position. Because the distance between the user and the enemy is too great, the enemy cannot immediately lock onto the source of the attack, unless it is a ninja like Miyagi En who is good at sensing.

In other words, this is a weapon that defies common sense. Anyone who is unprepared for it will either die or be seriously injured when they encounter it for the first time. They will be caught completely off guard.

"This thing is a bit scary..."

Just as Miyajo En was pondering, the surrounding barrier was lifted, and Nagato walked over from a distance.

"It's a pity the head is gone. Well then, let's hang the body outside the city."

He lowered his head to sense the headless corpse and said in a calm tone, "Clean up the scene. Take all those fools who survived by chance back and interrogate them to find out the secret technique 'Talent of the Immortal Clan'."

The immortal talent of the Fire Temple in the Land of Fire—that was something his elder brother had mentioned to him before, and he still remembered the tone of his brother's interest at the time.

If we ask about the principles behind the secret technique of "Talent of the Immortal Clan," my brother will surely be pleasantly surprised and delighted when he returns.

Thinking of that scene, Nagato's originally expressionless face couldn't help but show a genuine smile of anticipation.

Behind him, security personnel dressed in white robes walked past him, their faces uniformly serious and indifferent, toward the monks whose expressions were one of disillusionment and disbelief.

"...Master."

Looking at the headless corpse that was completely dead, and the guys walking towards him, Juezhen felt like he was still dreaming, and his expression gradually turned ugly.

He didn't know whether the employer had cheated them, or whether the employer himself had been cheated.

However, it is now clear that this place, which is considered almost harmless in intelligence reports, is actually a giant pit where anyone who jumps in will die. Anyone who steps into this place will fall into an abyss of no return.

"Junior brother, now is not the time to give up. We'll scatter and escape later..." the monk beside Juezhen said in a low voice. "Don't forget, Master has left us a way out in advance."

Upon hearing this, Juezhen paused for a moment, and a glimmer of hope and determination appeared in her eyes.

That's right, the barrier has been lifted. That terrifying attack just now was probably only carried out by one person. If they were searching for cover and scattering to escape, it's unlikely that they could all be killed.

Most importantly, they still have a way out.

"Okay, then we..." Juezhen really wanted to say something.

But the next moment, a loud bang interrupted him.

Bang!

The monk next to Juezhen's head instantly exploded into a cloud of blood mist, turning into a headless corpse that fell backward to the ground.

Red and white blood splattered onto Juezhen's stunned face. He was instantly terrified, pulled out a handheld device, raised it high above his head, and growled in terror, "Wait!"

"We've planted explosive tags in several places. Let us go, or I'll blow this place to smithereens!"

This was originally arranged by Huizhi in advance to create chaos and cover their evacuation if their whereabouts were exposed.

Unexpectedly, before he could even use it, his head was blasted apart by something ghostly from a kilometer away.

"Explosive tags?"

Upon hearing Kaku's low growl, Miyajo En, who had been looking down thoughtfully, suddenly changed his expression and looked up at the device in Kaku's hand. He instantly recognized it as something made by Kagerou Village.

These bald monks have actually started using explosive tags like ninjas?

However, upon hearing Kakuma's threat, Nagato's smile gradually faded. He looked expressionlessly at the trembling Kakuma in the distance and slowly said, "We will never negotiate with the invaders, much less compromise with them."

As soon as the words were spoken, the ninjas from the Security Department stopped in their tracks and raised their kunai spears, aiming them at the monks.

Bang! Bang bang!!

The kunai shot out from the dark muzzle of the gun, leaving several white streaks in the dim rain, the extremely sharp kunai aimed at the monks.

The monk, who had just breathed a sigh of relief thinking there was hope, never expected that the red-haired brat would act so recklessly, and before he could react, his body was pierced open by those kunai.

The penetrating power of the kunai fired at close range meant that it didn't linger in the flesh and bone when it hit the human body, turning the monks in front into a sieve of mangled flesh!

Standing behind, Juezhen clearly saw his senior brother's body being torn apart, looking like frozen pork being stabbed, with skin and flesh ripped open and blood spurting out, before he fell backward into a pool of blood, splashing blood everywhere.

Immediately, the ninjas aimed their kunai guns at Juezhen. If he made any sudden movement, the dark muzzles of the guns would fire kunai with a loud bang.

"You, you all..." Juezhen's pale, beardless face turned ashen, and he began to doubt his own existence.

Just how audacious are these guys to dare to do this? Aren't they afraid he'll go down in flames and detonate the explosive tags?

"Kneel down."

Before he could finish speaking, Nagato uttered two words that instantly punctured the last shred of courage in Juezhen's heart, causing him to deflate like a punctured balloon, his face pale and limp as he knelt on the ground.

His threats were completely disregarded by the other party; otherwise, he would have been the first to die. The killing of his senior brothers was merely to demonstrate their stance.

—We don't care about your threats at all. If you have the guts, use explosive tags to blow this place up. We can just shoot you idiots into a bloody mess and go home.

Realizing this, the other monks also knelt down as if they had lost their parents, and instinctively raised their hands to cover their heads.

"Take him away for interrogation, follow the normal procedures," Nagato said indifferently.

As the monks were being taken away by the ninja, Miyajo En, standing beside him, couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you afraid they'll fight to the death?"

"A fight to the death?" Nagato sneered without turning his head. "The fish will die, but the net won't break."

"If those idiots had done nothing after entering the city, it might have taken us a while to find them. But when they thought they were being discreet and started setting up explosive tags, we had already discovered them."

"As for those explosive tags, I threw them away a long time ago."

The "Monks" are indeed a famous bounty hunter team, but unfortunately they encountered a ghost tonight.

The Sky Ninjas of Dawn are no longer the lowly soldiers and generals of the past, nor are they like the ninjas of other villages who act independently and are trained in a scattered manner. From the beginning, Yunchuan has trained them in the manner of a regular army.

A well-trained, disciplined, and disciplined regular army, with all sorts of unheard-of weapons pointed at their heads, would be utterly defeated, let alone these untrained rogue soldiers. Even the most elite ninja squad would be helpless against a regular army of this caliber.

"Wait, the explosive tag, you threw it away?" Miyajo En asked, somewhat stunned. "When?"

"On the way here," Nagato said casually.

"..." Miyajo En didn't know what expression to make for a moment.

So while I was fighting tooth and nail here, even hurting myself to keep Huizhi occupied, you went off to dismantle those explosive tags?

"But it really is simple."

Miyajo En scratched his curly hair, his tone complicated, and said, "I thought that even if you could take care of those guys, it would be a tough battle with heavy losses, after all, they are all famous bounty hunter ninjas and teams..."

Surprisingly, the crisis was resolved very quickly.

Nagato glanced at him and said indifferently, "So what if they are famous bounty hunters and teams? They are just one person and a few people. We are a whole team."

"From the moment we stepped into this place, it fell into our hands. What we are doing now is simply minimizing the damage and protecting the safety of the people."

"Ah, this, this really is..."

Upon hearing this, Miya Shiro wiped away non-existent cold sweat, using it to conceal the glint in his eyes.

This is indeed an interesting place.

"Do I know too much?" Miyajo En chuckled. "Looks like I'm not leaving today without handing over something, am I?"

"Well then, let me introduce myself."

As he spoke, he politely extended his hand and bowed, saying, "Miyajo En, president of the Wave Country Wedge Real Estate Company, I am a weapons dealer and also an intelligence dealer. I hope to reach a cooperation agreement with you."

"...How dare you propose a collaboration now? Your shamelessness is just like a businessman's."

Nagato made a sarcastic remark, then said calmly, "While the decision to cooperate rests with my elder brother, I'll ask you one more question."

What kind of cooperation are you looking to achieve?

Upon hearing this, Miyajo En narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Weapons, such as kunai guns, flying ninja tools, or the kind of ninja tool you just used. Of course, I only need the models that you've phased out."

Upon hearing this, Nagato finally shifted his attention away from the monks and turned to Miyajo En beside him, truly scrutinizing the man.

With his robust physique, he would appear even more debonair and elegant without those strange sunglasses, not at all like a ninja who slaughtered his entire clan, but more like a flamboyant businessman.

Looking at his frivolous appearance and demeanor, even though I told myself that he was just acting, I still couldn't quite figure out what this man was really like. His expressions and actions were all very well done.

"……arms?"

Nagato suddenly laughed, but there was no real joy in the laugh. His tone was cold as he said, "You should know that once those ninja tools and weapons are exposed, it will reveal your connection with the Sky Ninja, right?"

The Sky Ninja, the Sky Legion, has a deep-seated grudge against Konoha.

Once Konoha discovers their whereabouts, they will definitely face a targeted and severe attack.

What gives a businessman the audacity to boast about wanting to enter into an arms deal with them?

"An ordinary businessman certainly doesn't deserve it."

Miyajo En's smile remained unchanged as he said, "But you may not know that there are always some special places in the ninja world that cannot be viewed with worldly eyes. The black market is just a small part of that."

"The merchants there are all shady characters. Smuggling, sex, gambling, human organ trafficking, and all sorts of evils you can and can't imagine, all of them exist in that dark corner."

"Ninjas, nobles, merchants, and officials are all intertwined by chains of interests, together creating a lawless ninja world."

At this point, he slightly raised his head and smiled, "And I am that kind of 'businessman,' with the dark underworld of the Land of Waves completely under my control."

"Believe me, I will sell your outdated and emasculated weapons for many times the price, making you a fortune and fleecing the five major powers."

"The money they hand over will become a more advanced weapon in your hands, which will eventually be used against themselves."
