Konoha: This Uchiha is extremely sneaky

Chapter 121 Granny Cat

As the scroll in my hand continues to unfurl.

The information recorded on it was also presented before his eyes.

The recorded locations are, in order:

In the Land of Demons, near the Yellow Springs Swamp, a large number of unknown creatures roam.

Its form is unknown, but local legend says it is enormous and terrifying.

The Land of Lightning. In the northern sea, there are unnamed islands where many large, ferocious beasts roam.

There are large land reptiles on it!

However, the island's location is uncertain!

The Land of Water, in the eastern outer sea, a turbulent ocean, is home to a large number of giant marine creatures, including many aggressive deep-sea behemoths. It is suspected to be the location where the quest is being searched.

In the Land of Fire, on its eastern coast, lies an unnamed island, rumored to be inhabited by a large number of summoned beasts, which is also suspected to be the location of the mission.

……

Looking at the few places recorded on the scroll, Toshiro pondered deeply. He was recalling his memories of his past life. Too much time had passed, and his memories of those filler scenes were not vivid. He needed to think them through carefully.

After a long silence, Toshiro looked at the scrolls in his hand and began to sort them out one by one.

His memories were too hazy, and he couldn't be sure if the information contained the place he was looking for.

First, the Land of Demons, that place called the Swamp of the Underworld, is probably not the place I'm looking for.

That wretched place must be the so-called Yellow Springs Cult's territory; they must be the ones causing trouble.

The purpose was to disperse ordinary people so that they could act undisturbed and make it easier for them to carry out their plans.

If the information is accurate, the Land of Lightning should be the place where Naruto trained in Tailed Beast Mode later on.

If I remember correctly, there's a real waterfall there that reflects the dark side of your heart. I can go see it sometime.

The Sharingan is a power that leans towards the mind, so there's no harm in giving it a try.

He had seen descriptions of the Land of Water, the outer sea there, in his geography textbook. It seemed that without a large ship, it would be difficult to sail in that place.

Given the current situation, even for a member of the Uchiha clan, going to the Land of Water requires finding a large ship.

A month is a timeframe, which is clearly not enough.

We can only place our hopes on this place on the eastern coast of the Land of Fire.

"Grandma Cat! I wonder if there's an accurate geographical location for this area on the eastern coast of the Land of Fire? A detailed map would be best!"

Without being polite, Toshiro asked directly.

He is now the commissioner of the task, or in his previous life, the client. As long as the request isn't too unreasonable, he can make any request.

Keep in mind that his reward for the task was only a deposit!

call!

As Granny Cat exhaled deeply, a wisp of pale purple smoke billowed out, enveloping her face and obscuring her thoughts.

"Do you have a map showing the exact location? Let me look for it..."

After she finished speaking, she winked at the cat that had been squatting beside her.

The white kitten, which wasn't playing with its companions, darted off to the back of the living room, seemingly to look for information.

"I shouldn't ask... but... Uchiha brat, I still have to ask, what's the matter with you looking for a place with large summoning beasts?"

Rules are rules, but people are flexible. She wouldn't hold back too much when facing a brat from the Uchiha clan. If she had any questions, she could just ask them directly.

"The main goal is to find a powerful summoning beast to prepare for future battles."

Although Toshiro found it strange, he still answered Granny Cat's question, but his answer was the same as the one he gave to Fugaku Uchiha.

He wouldn't tell the other person that he wanted to find a place with abundant natural energy to try cultivating immortality.

One very important reason for this is that, given the relationship between Granny Cat and these ninja cats, it is very likely that Granny Cat has some understanding of natural energy.

If he remembered correctly, after the Uchiha clan massacre in the original story, the Cat Village was preserved intact.

And it seems that it eventually merged into Konoha.

While this is understandable, Toshiro chose to keep it a secret to avoid any complications.

Having received this answer, Granny Cat did not press further but waited quietly.

Not long after, the little white cat returned, but this time it was holding a piece of paper in its paws.

Meow! Meow! Meow! It meowed a few times in Grandma Cat's ear, then dashed out of the living room in a flash. It was clear that it couldn't stay still and wanted to go out to play with its companions.

Looking at the thing on Granny Cat's ear, Toshiro suppressed his curiosity and began to seriously examine the simple sketch in his hand...

"Um... I didn't expect this to be a volcanic island..."

Looking at the markings on the map, Toshiro was somewhat surprised.

But it's nothing, since he was trying his luck this time anyway.

After glancing at the coordinates recorded on it, Toshiro readily put it away. Then, he carefully took out a bankbook from the backpack behind him.

Of the money, 700,000 taels was the remaining reward from this mission, which would soon no longer belong to him.

His heart was bleeding just thinking about it; this was money he had painstakingly saved up over the past two years through frugality.

If he doesn't make any money this time, he'll suffer a huge loss!

He didn't linger, and with the piece of paper he had exchanged for one million taels of silver, he embarked on his journey to the eastern coast of the Land of Fire.

The reason it's one million taels is because the other party received a deposit of three hundred thousand taels when the task was assigned.

Thinking about it, it's really damn expensive!

That's equivalent to the price of a single A-level mission! And it's one of the more expensive ones!

Afterwards, Toshiro spent three days rushing to the vicinity of the target sea area, and spent some money to buy a small boat to set sail!

Fortunately, this place is not far from the coastline; otherwise, it would have been impossible to reach the destination by a small boat.

As the small boat slowly moved forward, Toshiro gradually approached the volcanic island he had learned about at a price of one million ryo.

The closer he got, the more uneasy Toshiro felt. He didn't have any particular feeling, nor did he know if his operation would yield any results.

After setting foot on the island, it was already close to evening!

After towing the small boat he had bought ashore to prevent it from being washed away by the waves at high tide, Toshiro didn't rush to explore the area. Instead, he set up camp and rested on the beach where he had landed.

After three days of travel and a day of rowing, he was really exhausted...
