…………

Sakata's convoy stopped at the gate of Konoha Village, just a few steps away.

The convoy was loaded with many specialties from the Fire Nation, but more of them were food.

In addition to hiring Konoha's ninjas, Sakata also has twelve samurai.

The ninth team served as escorts and had a special carriage to receive them. The carriage was not very big and could accommodate four or five people at most.

Haneda and his team had gone through some D-level missions and had no complaints about this cramped environment.

At least there was no need to be exposed to the sun in the carriage or smell the stench of shit from the sewer.

inside the carriage.

Shumao drew the curtains and asked quietly:

"What do you think of this mission? For example, people, or things."

"It's quite easy. It feels like we don't even need to do anything." Asuma replied quickly.

Xihihong thought for a while and said, "I always feel that my employer wears glasses and smiles like a beast in human clothing."

"What about you, Haneda?" Sakumo looked at the silent Haneda.

Haneda analyzed:

"The employer emphasized that he was doing business with the Daimyo Prefecture, and also said that there might be assassinations by his peers. It was obvious that he wanted us to take this mission seriously."

"And said mission could turn into B-rank, or even A-rank, at any time. We could very well be attacked by ninjas."

"And the ninja who came must be very powerful, otherwise he wouldn't bring 12 samurai with him and come to Konoha specifically to hire ninjas."

"It seems his enemies have a lot of capital too."

After hearing the answers from Haneda and the other two, Sakumo just smiled and said:

"Then let's wait and see. We still have a lot of time. Right now we can only analyze some things based on the limited information."

…………

The carriage traveled very quickly and arrived at the coastal area of ​​the Fire Country after about five days.

To get from the Land of Fire to the Land of Waves, you need to take a boat.

The employer, Sakata, plans to rest at the dock for one night and set off tomorrow morning.

Tonight, the night is dark and windy.

Sakumo stayed at a hotel, and his room was next to Sakata's, making it easier to protect him.

Haneda and the other three were temporarily sent by their employer to guard the warehouse.

"Why should Mr. Sakumo be able to rest in his room while we have to guard this gloomy warehouse?"

Asma sat down on a bag full of rice and said unconvincedly.

"This is not the teacher's arrangement. Maybe the employer is worried that someone will steal things at night."

"I heard that there are a lot of bandits in many places outside. This might be the place."

Hong said beside him.

He looked at their leader, Haneda, and asked:

"Brother Haneda, are you keeping watch tonight, or what?"

Asuma seemed bored and thought about slacking off, but was too embarrassed to say it out loud.

We had been traveling for several days, and every day we were either practicing climbing trees or treading water, and we didn't encounter any danger.

Instead of working diligently to keep watch, it is better to play cards or sleep.

"Someone is here, masked."

Haneda, who had been silent, suddenly spoke up, shocking Asuma so much that he quickly drew his chakra blade.

"Brother Haneda, where is the person?" Asuma asked in a low voice.

"The windows on the left are all ordinary people."

After he finished speaking, seven masked men holding machetes climbed in through the window.

Asuma was stunned when he saw the fierce masked man in front of him.

Is this person an ordinary person?

Chapter 059: I am the bad guy?

"Don't just stand there, come on!"

Haneda pulled out the short knife from his back, took a step forward, slid down, and went around the crotch of a masked man to his back.

He kicked the man behind him to the ground with a fierce kick, and at the same time used his dagger to block the attacking machete.

Zizi!

The short knife slashed across the machete, creating sparks. At this time, two masked men came sideways and slashed at Haneda.

A powerful blow from a grown man is enough to split thick wood, and the result will be either death or disability.

But Haneda opened the Three-magatama Sharingan and controlled the two people who attacked from the flank with just a glance.

The machete also fell into the air and froze. Within half a second, the two men fell asleep on the spot.

"It's a ninja! Run away!!"

The remaining four masked strong men in front of Haneda were shocked, shouted loudly, and ran outside quickly.

At this moment, Haneda pulled out three shuriken from his waist bag and released them from his hands as if he were throwing them away casually.

The shuriken penetrated through the lower bodies of the four people and pierced their calves at an extremely tricky angle.

Blood splattered on the floor, and a faint smell of blood filled the warehouse.

Asuma and Hong froze in place as they watched the scene before them.

The bloody images and physical discomfort made their stomachs churn and they felt nauseous and wanted to vomit.

Haneda turned around and said to Asuma and Hong calmly:

"There are four left. You guys deal with them. Don't let them escape."

"Yu, Brother Haneda, do we need to kill them all?"

"If you can capture them alive, try to capture them. If you can't, it's okay to kill them. I've already left a few alive, enough for questioning."

As he spoke, Haneda threw a kunai at the masked man he had kicked over before, finishing him off.

At the same time, he took out ropes and tied up the hands and feet of the two people controlled by the hypnotic eyes.

The remaining four people were unable to escape due to their injured legs and feet.

Despite their desperate resistance, they were no match for Asuma and Hong.

In just one minute, all four were knocked down and captured alive.

Asuma and Hong couldn't get over the hurdle in their hearts and couldn't bring themselves to kill.

"What should we do next, Brother Haneda?"

Asma's face was a little pale, and he felt uncomfortable looking at the blood on his hands.

"trial."

Haneda opened his three-magatama Sharingan, his face expressionless.

The reason why he left Asuma, Hong and the other three to live with was simply to train them.

For him, killing seven strong men was just a matter of a glance or a lightning escape.

Even though these people are extremely vicious and have killed many people, they are still ordinary people in the eyes of ninjas.

Haneda used his hand to open the eyelids of one of the men, and the man's pupil immediately showed a pattern of three magatama.

"Tell me, why did you come to the warehouse instead of assassinating Yamano Sakata?"

"I received an order to assassinate Yamano Sakata, but I wanted to live more, so I conspired with others to smuggle some food back here and then set fire to this place."

"Why do you want to steal food? Food is not expensive. Besides, aren't you assassins?" Asma asked in confusion.

"When food from the Land of Fire is sold to the Land of Waves, the price will increase tenfold."

"We are not assassins, we are just civilians from the Land of Waves. We just agreed to assassinate that damned vampire Sakata!"

Asuma and Hong were speechless as they listened. Seven people came all the way from the Land of Waves to the Land of Fire just for their stutter.

Also, is the price of food in Wave Country so high?

People who live by the sea make their living from the sea. Isn’t it nice to go out to sea and catch fish?

At this time, Haneda asked:

"The price of fish is also expensive in Wave Country?"

"Expensive! That vampire Sakata controls all the main roads in Wave Country and forbids us from fishing privately. That's why the price of fish is so high!"

The person controlled by the illusion subconsciously gnashed his teeth and became indignant.

This answer made Haneda understand a lot of things. He took out a kunai and was about to kill the person in front of him.

But he was stopped by Asuma.

"Brother Haneda, they are just civilians, why did you kill them?"

Haneda glanced at the puzzled Asuma and Hong, and said calmly:

"What you should be thinking about is why the employer sent the three of us here and no other samurai."

"And how did he know someone would come to attack the warehouse instead of assassinating him?"

After saying that, Haneda swung the kunai in his hand and killed the man without any hesitation.

The blood flowing from the neck made the bloody smell around even stronger.

"You guys do the rest. I don't want to see anyone alive."
