There was no conversation that night, after all, they still had a long journey ahead of them.

So after finishing their dinner, they fell into a deep sleep.

For the next two days, they basically traveled through this vast primeval forest.

Not to mention enemies on the road, even wild beasts didn't come to disturb them.

Finally, they passed through the forest that they were almost tired of seeing and returned to the plain.

After running on the plain for another half a day, a drizzle began to fall from the sky.

Seeing this kind of climate, everyone knew that they had finally arrived in the Rainy Land where it rains all year round.

But as they went deeper, the expressions on the three little ones' faces became more and more heavy.

Because at this time, the Rain Kingdom doesn’t look like a country at all.

Perhaps it could be said that this place is like an inhabited area.

Wherever they passed, there were tragic scenes of broken walls and ruins.

Only Kagura remained calm, because he knew very well that everything before him was the remnant of the great war several years ago.

That afternoon, just as they were planning to find an abandoned house to rest, a burst of tragic crying came from not far away.

Chapter 17 Tell me your choice

As the crying and shouting sounded, everyone looked at each other in confusion.

Finally, the three of them looked towards Kagura.

Seeing the reactions of the disciples, Kagura sighed secretly, and then said to them:

"Well, since we have nothing to do anyway, let's go and take a look."

Having said that, he took the lead and walked over there.

Seeing this, the three of them followed excitedly.

The place where they are now should be an abandoned village.

But the whole village looked like it had experienced a fierce battle.

The badly damaged walls and almost intact houses seemed to bear witness to the tragedy that had once taken place.

But this village seemed to have been abandoned for a long time, and it looked like a ruin under the rain.

This is also the reason why Kagura and others came here to find a place to rest.

The place where the crying and shouting came from was actually not far from them, just a few meters away from them in a relatively intact house.

A few seconds later, they were outside the house.

Although the house in front of him was relatively intact compared to other places, its door had long been destroyed and disappeared.

Without hesitation, Kagura led the three of them straight into the house.

Before I even walked into the room, I heard a voice begging for mercy coming from inside:

“Please!

Don't take our food, it's all we have left.

If you take it away, my children and I will starve to death here.

I beg you, please let us go!"

The voice that came over was that of a young woman, and along with her words, there were also the sounds of children crying and kowtowing.

Out of ninja instinct, they did not immediately head towards the room where the sound came from.

Instead, he immediately stopped making any footsteps and quietly moved closer to the wall.

After passing through the living room and arriving at the door of a room, Kagura and the others finally saw what was happening inside the house.

I saw a young woman in tattered clothes holding a child who looked only 3.4 or years old, and she was constantly kowtowing hard to several figures in front of her.

Opposite her were three men in ninja combat uniforms.

Although the lights in the room were extremely dim, Kagura and the others could still clearly see that the logo of the Sand Village was engraved on the forehead protectors of the three people.

At this time, one of them was holding a cloth bag in his hand and cursing something. Combined with what the young woman had just said, it seemed that that was the only food left in her house.

The other person was perhaps a little annoyed by the crying of the woman and the child in her arms.

Suddenly, he kicked the woman who was kowtowing to the ground, and said impatiently:

"I told you, we are ninjas from the Sand Village who came out on a mission.

Do you know what a ninja is?

Now we ask you to contribute food to us, otherwise, do you intend to let us carry out the mission on an empty stomach?

It’s really noisy.”

After saying that, he seemed to still be a little unsatisfied and kicked the woman lying on the ground a few more times.

The woman didn't dare to resist and could only hold her child tightly, gritting her teeth and silently enduring his attack.

But when the woman stopped talking, the ninja who had previously disliked her for being noisy seemed to be irritated.

He kicked harder without stopping.

The man on the other side opened the cloth bag in his hand, took a look and said disappointedly:

"Pah, all that noise and bustle, I thought there was some food.

Isn't this some rotten cassava?

What bad luck. "

Although he expressed disgust, after thinking about it, he still put the cloth bag away.

They were a team that had set out from the Sand Village a few days ago to carry out a mission in another country.

Unfortunately, he, who was in charge of keeping the food, accidentally dropped the bag of dry food into a pool while he was on the road yesterday.

However, due to the time limit of the mission, they now have no time to return to the village to replenish food.

So we can only try our luck in this ruined rain country.

Unexpectedly, they actually found a survivor in this house.

Although he would not eat those cassava even if they were given to him normally, as a ninja, he could not be picky at this moment in order to complete the mission.

He had no intention of stopping his companion from kicking and beating the woman.

At this time, the last of the three spoke:

“Speaking of which, it’s getting late now.

This house seems to be the only one that's relatively nice in this area.

But this woman...

or..."

As he spoke, the man raised his hand and made a throat-cutting gesture.

Obviously, he meant that he thought this woman was troublesome, and in order to have some peace and quiet tonight, he planned to kill her and rob the house.

The man holding the food was obviously the leader of the team.

He pondered for a while about his companion's suggestion, and then nodded in agreement.

Seeing the conversation between the two, the ninja who kept kicking the woman also revealed a ferocious smile on his face.

In fact, this scene is very common in the ninja world.

Perhaps in her previous life, Kagura saw the same passionate and friendly plot as Naruto in comics or animations.

But after traveling through time, he, who had been carrying out missions outside for many years, knew that what he saw was the norm in this world.

In a world of low productivity, the survival of the fittest is inevitable.

Faced with a group of extremely powerful people like ninjas, ordinary people are simply unable to resist.

You know, even a Genin who just graduated from the Ninja School can easily defeat several ordinary adults.

As for a country like the Rain Country that has lost the protection of the Ninja Village.

In the eyes of the ninjas from a big country like the Wind Country, the citizens who still remain here are no different from ants on the street.

After figuring out what was happening, the three people around Kagura couldn't help but show anger in their eyes.

For those who grew up in a peaceful village like Konoha, everything before their eyes was simply unimaginable.

Especially Kushina.

As someone who has been through it, she understands this kind of thing very well.

When she escaped from the Land of Whirlpools, she witnessed many similar things with her own eyes.

So when she saw that those people were actually preparing to kill the woman and her child, she couldn't help but take a step forward.

However, at this moment, an arm blocked the three people.

At this moment, Kagura's eyes were filled with indifference. He looked at the three angry people and said in a tone that was chilling to the bone:

“Let me make it clear first, I will not stop you, but I will not take action either.

But before you take action, I want you to think carefully first."

As he spoke, he pointed at the three ninjas in the room, and then continued:

“I believe you have also seen that they are ninjas from the Sand Village.

I believe you all know what we are going to do in the Sand Village this time."

Hearing this, the faces of the three people suddenly changed.

Among them, Kushina growled angrily:

"Then are we going to do nothing and watch the mother and child die?"

Facing the disciples' doubts, Kagura said calmly:
