I'm doing Jujutsu Kaisen in the ninja world.

Little did Mahler know that there was an animal called the Siberian Husky, which was fearless and capable of both verbal communication and physical violence, such as climbing on roofs and destroying homes.

There's nothing that Erha Duan wouldn't dare to do!

"Brother Mahler, everything's been taken care of over there. You should clean your wound and bandage it up quickly too," Juan said with some concern.

Mahler smiled nonchalantly, "Don't worry, I just took an antidote pill. It was specially prepared by Lady Chiyo, so I'll be fine."

After saying that, he looked at Shinji and Hidan and said, "I heard that you two are wandering ninjas? I happen to have a job here with a fairly good reward."

"What commission?"

“Escort us back to Sunagakure.”

Seeing the other person's sincere expression, Shinji almost believed him.

As expected, thick eyebrows and big eyes are all a facade of honesty.

Where is this place?

The Land of Wind!

The main base of Sunagakure!

Two Jonin proficient in sealing techniques are leading a group of Chunin and Genin back to the village from here. Do they need outsiders to escort them?

Anyone with a serious mental illness wouldn't believe such nonsense.

Shinji realized that although this guy kept saying he was grateful to the two of them, he must have had some doubts in his heart, such as their motives for being there and their identities.

But since they had just done them a great favor, it wasn't appropriate for them to turn against them.

So they came up with this idea, which would allow them to monitor the two of them along the way and also give them extra rewards as a thank you.

Once we get to Sunagakure, whether we can be molded or flattened will be a matter of a single word.

Most people would probably be sold out and end up paying the seller.

Shinji, of course, wouldn't fall for it and refused outright.

"No need, I know you're trying to thank us this way. But my brother and I never accept handouts; it's an insult to us!"

It's just a display of acting skills, veteran actor Shinji Akagi is here!

"No, that's not what I meant..."

"I understand, so we're not angry, we just hope you won't bring it up again."

"You've misunderstood, I..."

“I understand, you really mean well for us two brothers, but please forgive us for not being able to accept it.”

You understand, you know...

You don't understand a damn thing!

You don't know anything!

Mahler cursed inwardly, his smile freezing on his face.

What frustrated him most was that he couldn't tell whether this guy was being sincere or just pretending not to know.

Today, I've finally met my match!

"Uh, the compensation is really generous, are you sure you don't want to consider it?"

"No need to say anything more, otherwise we won't be able to be friends anymore."

Blanch!

Who's your friend?

Somewhat exhausted, Ma Le simply gave up and stopped trying to persuade him.

"Alright, I respect your decision. If you need any help in the future, you can come to Sunagakure to find me."

"Yes, definitely, definitely, definitely next time!"

The two gazed at each other with obvious affection for a while before reluctantly parting ways.

When they turned around, they mouthed greetings to the other person's family, which was very polite.

"Jia Qing, Jia Yi, take two more people and follow them. Keep an eye on them."

"Remember, don't act rashly unless they both make an extraordinary move."

"Although the main purpose is surveillance, if you encounter any emergencies and discover that these two are doing something to harm the village, you are allowed to take immediate action, regardless of their lives."

Upon hearing Mahler's new instructions, the two generals immediately became as excited as a 500-pound child.

"We will definitely complete the mission!"

They actually wanted to say that sending just the two of them would be enough.

So what if two mere wandering ninjas were picked up by someone not long ago?

If they were in that position, they could do the same thing by taking the enemy by surprise.

At least that's what they both really thought...

Jia Qing, Jia Yi, and two other Sand Village ninjas quickly and quietly left.

Juan seemed to think that doing so was not a good idea, but Mahler was quite frank, "I am grateful to them, but at the same time I have to be wary of them. Right now, Lord Maki is leading a team to hunt down 'Shaling', and if anything goes wrong, we will be held accountable."

"I hope I'm just overthinking things, but a proper investigation is still necessary. If their identities are ultimately confirmed to be correct, I will personally apologize to them."

Upon hearing this, Juan immediately looked embarrassed. "Of course I believe Brother Mahler. I was just oversimplifying things."

"No, your innocence and kindness are the most beautiful qualities; it is only this world that is complicated."

Mahler looked up at the horizon, his face telling him, "I have a story to tell, but I wonder who has the wine."

[Chapter 73. Seeking Death]

"Someone's following us."

Shinji pretended not to know anything and gave a soft "hmm". "They should be from Sunagakure. Obviously, they are not so easy to fool."

"Find an opportunity to resolve this directly?"

"No, let's leave it for now. We'll make our move after the others from Sunagakure have gone far away."

"Hopefully those two guys are right behind us, not walking with anyone else."

Hidan muttered to himself, he didn't have a broad mind, and being vindictive was his nature.

Because this village is located in an oasis, it is relatively prosperous, and many travelers choose to stop here.

Furthermore, since the end of the last Shinobi World War, Sunagakure and Konoha have reached an alliance agreement, so trade between the Land of Wind and the Land of Fire has been very frequent.

Before the riots broke out, no one could have foreseen it. Now that the riots have subsided, many people have come out of the shelters, which has brought the place back to life.

In addition, Shinji noticed a small detail.

That is to say, the indigenous people living here are very adaptable. Although they just experienced something very scary, they have now calmed down and are going about their business as usual.

On the contrary, the outsiders, caravans, and others all looked like they were still in shock, their faces pale.

"Indeed, the harsher the environment, the more it can temper one's character."

Shinji sighed softly.

But if he had to choose, he would definitely choose the most comfortable life.

Nonsense. If given a choice, who would turn down delicacies and choose to eat cornbread for the rest of their life?

That's just asking for trouble!

"Welcome to our shop, sir/madam!"

"Two rooms, and send over some local specialties."

"Alright, distinguished guests, please come in!"

They found a clean and hygienic hotel and checked in.

As the saying goes, having money in hand means having peace of mind.

Shinji naturally didn't need to treat himself badly. If it weren't for a few loose ends that still needed to be dealt with, he would have really wanted to try the 'Shamate massage' that the boss had recommended.

I just don't know what this Shama is...

Before they knew it, night had fallen, and the whole village had become quiet.

In case of any unforeseen circumstances, Mahler had already led his men back to Sunagakure overnight.

Meanwhile, Jia Qing, Jia Yi, and two other people remained hidden around, secretly monitoring Shinji and Hidan's movements.

"Damn it, they're just two rogue ninjas. I don't think they're worth monitoring. Just knock them out, take them back, and interrogate them. Everything will be clear in no time. Why waste time here?"

Jia Yi looked displeased. In his eyes, the two useless guys were eating and drinking right under his nose and then sleeping soundly.

But they had to endure the cold nights, eating dry rations and freezing.

Naturally, they felt unbalanced.

Jia Qing had similar thoughts, and more importantly, he had lost face and been scolded because of these two guys he looked down on.

So he really wanted to get revenge and make those two guys beg for mercy on their knees!

So after the shift change, Jia Qing didn't hide her thoughts and directly discussed them with her brother Jia Yi. The two hit it off immediately.

"The problem is that the mission we received does not allow us to take action on our own, unless we are certain that these two people are indeed problematic."

The two frowned. If it were just the two of them, they wouldn't care about acting first and informing later.

However, two other companions were unseen and restraining them, preventing them from acting recklessly.

"Why don't we tell them? We're all from the same village, and I'm sure they won't turn against us brothers because of two outsiders."

Jia Qing shook her head after hearing this, "This is a task assigned by Lord Mahler. Even if they don't stop us to our faces, if they 'talk nonsense' about something after we get back, then you and I will be in a very passive position."

"Then... give them some benefits and drag them down with us?"

"It's unnecessary and not worth it. How much can you squeeze out of two wandering ninjas? If I weren't so angry, I wouldn't be feeding mosquitoes here."

"This won't work, that won't work, so what do you suggest we do?"
