Konoha: The Innately Evil Uchiha

Chapter 21 Cleverness

The full moon hangs in the sky.

The moonlight was bright and clear.

Occasionally, a nightingale sings in the woods, its song clear, melodious, and pleasant to hear.

Below the tree branch.

The woman's snow-white legs floated in mid-air, her clean toes swaying gently, teasing the air as if it were the surface of water.

At her mature age, she shouldn't be making such girlish gestures, but there was no one around.

Looking through the round-framed lens.

The group gradually left.

They didn't necessarily intend to find her.

She was finally relieved.

These people left in a hurry, as if they were fleeing, and they probably won't return after they leave.

"It was the first time I was taking a bath that I was disturbed and had to run away in a sorry state."

Oh, I'm sorry.

I have a mission to complete and cannot expend too much chakra to help others.

A gentle smile appeared on her pretty face, and all the inner turmoil disappeared. She slowly got up and reached out to untie her bath towel.

The moonlight was as bright and clear as snow.

Her skin was as smooth and white as jade.

A white bath towel fell to the ground, covering the thorns.

With her fair and rosy toes stepping on tree branches, Nonou formed hand seals, untied her storage scroll, took out her clothes, put them on skillfully, and then vanished in an instant.

hum-

The branches trembled slightly, and the woman, dressed in a witch's robe, could not restrain her surging breasts as she leaped toward the mountain stronghold.

……

Back in the cabin.

The gate was open.

Nono pulled her white hood back, revealing a fair and handsome face beneath her long golden hair.

Looking at the empty hall.

Nono's pale blue eyes trembled, revealing confusion and astonishment.

"Huh? Where did my bathtub go?"

She raised her eyebrows slightly, stepped barefoot outside, looked around, and found no trace of anyone pouring water. A big question mark immediately appeared in her mind.

That's the new bathtub she bought yesterday when she went to Kikyo Castle to submit a mission to kill a rogue ninja!

Someone might be able to seal the bathtub with a sealing scroll, but how can you seal the bathtub with water inside?

Those people can't find themselves.

So you took the bathtub to vent your anger?

"How can there be such a person? They even use bathwater! How despicable!"

Nono put aside her doubts. Even though she was usually gentle and kind, a hint of anger appeared on her pretty face at this moment, and she clenched her jade fingers.

She glanced down the hillside.

Along the rugged mountain road.

Jaeger and Dr. Nak were still chatting.

"Dr. Nak, it's so late, why don't you stay at my house tonight?"

Jaeger extended a warm invitation.

Nak shook his head and politely declined.

"No, I haven't settled the bill in Kabukicho yet. What bad luck! I was invited here for treatment so late at night, and your friends won't even pay for my medical expenses!"

"I'll pay for it!"

Jaeger smiled憨厚ly.

Nak glanced at him, and seeing the hunter's frankness, waved his hand and said:

"Your family of three depends on you to feed them. Besides, how much money could a wandering hunter like you have? Forget it, forget it. I'll just come over for a cup of hot tea, and I'll leave after I'm done!"

Jaeger's smile remained unchanged as he hurriedly led Dr. Nak back to his home. Upon entering, the two froze on the spot.

The candlelight flickered in the wooden house.

Nono sat upright in the main seat, her eyes narrowed, a gentle smile on her face, like a charming housewife, looking at the two people outside the door.

"Hiss... blond hair, round-framed glasses, good-looking, dressed as a shrine maiden!!"

Dr. Nak's eyes widened, he gasped, and turned to leave.

Jaeger immediately grabbed the doctor's arm tightly, his whole body tensing. He swallowed hard, stared blankly at Nono, and whispered:

"Doctor, don't go! I'm scared!"

"I'm scared too!"

Dr. Nak's face twitched, and he thought to himself, "I shouldn't have been greedy for your tea!"

……

In the pitch-black night.

Each Uchiha carried a torch and moved forward in the dark, with some team members carrying stretchers, so their speed was not very fast.

The fact that they encountered no attacks along the way allowed them to relax a little.

Now they can only pray that they can find a medical ninja for Tamao in the remaining three or four days.

Quan followed closely beside Yinyue and asked curiously:

"Captain Yinyue, why didn't that ninja dressed as a shrine maiden kill Mr. Jaeger and his group who were impersonating rogue ninjas from Kirigakure?"

Yin Yue thought for a moment and replied, "For a ninja, what is the most important thing before taking action?"

Quan immediately laughed and said, "Intelligence!"

Drinking the moonlight, she lightly touched her chin.

"I see!"

Quan suddenly realized what was happening.

Before that female ninja made her move, she must have studied the rogue ninjas in this area.

She knew that the mountain stronghold where Yegor lived was not a real rebel village, which is why she went there to stay and even helped the family out of kindness.

However, Izumi believed that pretending to be a rogue ninja was an extremely unwise move!

The moonlight falls on a tree branch. Looking up at the night sky, the stars are as dazzling as diamonds, and the bright moon hangs in the sky, pure and pale.

This night was just like the night Danzo was killed.

Beautiful.

Yin Yue's lips suddenly curled into a slight smile. She stopped, turned back to look at the group, and calmly said, "Return the way we came!"

"what?"

The Uchiha were suddenly stunned.

……

Simple wooden house.

Nonou frowned, looking at Jaeger who was clenching his teeth and refusing to speak. She then looked at Dr. Nak:

"Tell me, who were those people just now, and what were they doing at Kikyo Mountain?"

At this moment, Jaeger and Nak were back to back, bound to two chairs, unable to move.

The two men's faces turned ashen.

As for Jaeger's wife, she stood behind Nono, staring intently at the back of Nono's neck, her face grave, holding the sleeping baby.

Dr. Nak sighed, "I really don't know those people at all; I don't even know their names."

Do—

Nonou deliberately stuck a kunai into the table, and Geyer stared at the sharp kunai, his eyes wide.

Nonou feigned indifference, "I'm giving you one last chance!"

She naturally wouldn't harm Geyer and Nak; she only wanted to threaten them and try to gather information about that group.

This is not something that must be done.

But when you're out and about.

As an outstanding intelligence agent of the Root organization, Nonou's ability to gather intelligence is ingrained in her bones.

In order for her mission to be completed smoothly.

Nonou felt it was necessary to gather this kind of information, but if that group wasn't related to her mission, then she would let it go.

If she really wanted to extract information.

It would be easier to threaten Geyer now by using the woman and child behind him.

Before Geyer could utter any lies to cover it up, Nonou raised an eyebrow, a premonition forming in her mind, and looked at the tightly closed wooden door.

bang——

The wooden door was kicked open from the outside, and a lot of sawdust and dust fell from the top of the wooden roof.

The strong stench of blood was overwhelming.

Jaeger's eyes widened, feeling that the stench of blood was even more pungent and unpleasant than the one on Nonou the day before.

Nonou remained calm and composed, adjusting her glasses and seeing four figures slowly walking into the cabin through her bright nearsighted lenses.

Jaeger's wife and the baby in her arms were startled, and the baby started wailing again.

The baby's cries heralded the chaos.

Dr. Nak, leaning back in his chair, narrowed his eyes, glanced sideways, and mentally muttered again, "I really shouldn't have been greedy for that sip of tea!"

The four men were dressed in Konoha ninja uniforms and wore Konoha headbands, their uniforms stained with fresh, still-dried blood.

A fat ninja with short hair and armor bearing the character "food" was clutching a pair of headbands belonging to rogue ninjas from Kirigakure in his large hand, one of which was missing a corner.

Followed by.

A white ninja dog slipped in through the door, sniffing the lingering scent in the wooden house.

"Woof!"

Suddenly, it smelled a familiar scent, cried out in fright, and frantically tried to run away, but was held back tightly by one of the ninjas with a dog leash.

Jaeger stared blankly at the missing corner of the Kirigakure rogue ninja headband in the fat ninja's hand.
