Escape From Konoha

The country of soup.

In a hot spring hotel.

After Oyajo took a nice bath in the hot spring, he put on his yukata, stepped on his clogs, and walked out of the changing room.

"Ah, after a day's work, taking a dip in the hot spring is really good for the body. The fatigue of the day is eliminated like this."

As he spoke, Oyajo moved his muscles and stretched his body. His face was rosy. People who didn't know his true face would not associate such an inconspicuous person with an arms dealer.

When he was sighing about the wonderful life, a maid in kimono came in.

"Lord Oyajo."

"What's up?"

Oyashiro asked casually.

He picked up strange-looking sunglasses and put them on himself, making his already vulgar image even more unbearable, full of insidiousness and cunning.

"Ms. Miyoko came to visit and is in the reception room."

He said respectfully to the waitress.

Oyashiro touched his chin, then smiled and said, "That's it. Please let her wait for a while while I dry her hair first."

"Yes, Lord Oyajo."

After receiving the order from Oya Castle, the maid did not hesitate, turned around and left to entertain the distinguished guests in the guest room.

…

About a few minutes later, Miyajo came belatedly. As soon as he entered the reception room, he saw Miyoko Uchiha sitting in the guest seat drinking tea, with a maid taking care of her next to her.

"Hey, Miyoko, I haven't seen you for a while. Why, are you coming to me now because of problems with property transfer procedures?"

Oyashiro asked with a smile, and sat down on the main seat without ceremony, chatting with Miyoko easily and freely.

"Yes, because some property transfer procedures require your signature."

Miyoko gestured to the Demon Country ninja behind her.

The Ghost Country ninja nodded, took off the file bag from his arms, and gently placed it in front of Oya Castle.

Miyagi was a little speechless. Sure enough, he came to him because of this matter.

Because the merchant alliance on the isolated island had been destroyed, he had already begun to deal with his property and made a retirement plan before he was aware of the Ghost Country's intentions.

Naturally, he cannot use these properties for charity. He is not a kind person. Although he does not love money, it does not mean that he will donate these huge amounts of money.

Most of his property began to be transferred, and the object of the transfer was naturally his daughter, who served in the military of the Kingdom of Ghosts, and the property was put in her name. He only left a small part of his property for himself to use for his retirement.

After working as an arms dealer for so many years, he was tired of playing this game.

Coupled with the strength of the Kingdom of Ghosts, it is estimated that unscrupulous businessmen like him who stray from the boundaries of black and white are not allowed to exist. The reason why he was not targeted this time was because he was familiar with and had a cooperative relationship with the senior officials of the Kingdom of Ghosts, so he was not purged.

If it weren't for this relationship, no matter how strong his hiding ability was, it would not be that simple to hide safely.

The moment the island was destroyed, he had the idea of ​​​​retirement.

I no longer want to care about the rights and wrongs of the ninja world. I just want to live my retirement life with peace of mind. There is no need to live too tiredly.

"You can actually handle these things yourself. Anyway, with the reputation of the Ziyuan Flower Merchant Association, you won't be greedy for such a small amount of money."

Oyashiro laughed and said jokingly.

"This is not a small amount of money. I didn't expect you to make so much money by reselling arms."

Miyoko knew that Oya Castle was rich in wealth and was one of the top arms dealers in the ninja world. Like the Nekoma clan who were allied with Uchiha, they all made their fortune by reselling arms.

The difference is that Oya Castle started from scratch, relying entirely on his own abilities, and became a legend in the arms industry in one generation.

The arms family that Granny Neko belongs to has relied on hundreds of years of accumulation, and the secret assistance of the Uchiha and Ninja Cat clans to become a powerful arms family in the ninja world.

Although the wealth of Oya Castle cannot be compared with that of Uchiha's family business, in terms of personal ability, he is already an outstanding businessman.

"Miyoko, you also know that I am powerless, so I always need to take some special paths."

Oyajo pretended to be weak and deliberately artificial.

"I don't know if you are powerless, but if you choose to retire at this time, it can be regarded as a good death. After all, I am worried that one day when you are doing business, your boat will capsize in the gutter and be stepped on by others."

Miyoko's concerns are not without reason.

The arms enterprise in Oya Castle is entirely supported by him.

Once something unexpected happens to him, such as the fact that he has no heir, his arms company will be divided up and cannibalized by other businessmen.

"Haha, thank you very much. In fact, I haven't been thinking about retirement for a day or two. The arms business can't last long, especially for a lonely person like me, who has so much property, and has long been stared at by the greedy eyes of my peers. On."

Oyajo also knows where his shortcomings lie.

That's why he created so many strongholds for himself to hide in, just to protect his own safety.

Even if his strength is very strong, not weaker than that of a Sannin, there are so many hidden dragons and tigers in the ninja world that he might be assassinated by a killer one day.

No matter how strong he is, he can't keep his nerves tense at any time and at any time, and he will be exhausted if he is not assassinated.

Miyashiro signed the property transfer agreement and handed it to Miyoko in person. The transaction was considered completed.

This property will be managed by the Shion Flower Merchant Association, and the management fee will be transferred to the military of the Kingdom of Demons by his group of ninjas.

He has planned to retire and no longer intends to engage in the arms business. There is no use for those ninja subordinates to stay. It is better to be a favor and let the Kingdom of Ghosts handle it.

"But, to be honest, the commotion in your country of ghosts this time is really big, especially for your son-in-law. I'm afraid the road ahead will be very difficult."

Oyashiro's expression rarely became serious.

The current situation in the ninja world is indeed beneficial to the Kingdom of Ghosts, and the Kingdom of Thunder has also begun to launch a plan against the Kingdom of Fire.

However, this kind of targeting is only temporary. The high profile of the Ghost Country will inevitably be suppressed by a multi-national coalition in the future.

The Kingdom of Thunder and the Kingdom of Fire will not be hostile forever. As a new powerful country, the Kingdom of Ghosts has not yet become accustomed to the ruling system of the five major powers. Once it is jointly targeted by many countries, it may be in a hurry.

"I didn't expect that he would decisively attack the Gudao. Not only did he harm the relationship between the Fire Country and the Wind Country, many small countries that had business dealings with the Gudao also began to be wary of the Ghost Country. Obviously I asked him to Stop targeting isolated islands."

Miyoko also sighed helplessly.

When the child gets older, he is just disobedient.

When she was young, she wanted to earn more money and save enough development funds for the Uchiha clan. Now that we have enough development funds, we are thinking about how to ensure that this wealth will not be robbed by outsiders.

What's more, after she secretly brought some children of the Konoha Uchiha clan to the Kingdom of Demons in the name of the military last time, her own military authority was confiscated by her own daughter, and she almost had a knife on her neck. . Sure enough, girls are all extroverts.

Nowadays, the military will no longer allow outsiders to interfere. Only in high-level meetings will the military's trends be known.

By the time they found out, the Kingdom of Demons had united three of the five major countries and launched direct action, leaving Miyoko at a loss as to what to say.

As soon as the front leg said not to be high-profile, the back leg's own son-in-law led his troops to quickly eliminate the Lonely Island Merchant Alliance, and he didn't rush to the market in such a hurry.

Then she thought that the relationship between the Kingdom of Ghosts and the underground black market had not been settled well, and they even started a fierce battle. Thinking of this, Miyoko felt dizzy again.

I thought that my daughter's strong personality would already be a headache, but I didn't expect that my son-in-law, who seemed to be the most honest, would be the most troublesome one.

Miyoko won't be surprised when the day comes when the entire country of ghosts becomes an enemy.

"It seems like you've been working very hard too."

Miyajo feels the same way.

The plan of the Kingdom of Ghosts also disrupted his deployment.

Although he has considered retiring, he does not want to retire so soon. But the actions of the Kingdom of Ghosts forced him to do this.

Compared with the huge state machinery of the Ghost Country, his arms company is completely incomparable.

Neither wealth nor force are on the same level.

"That's it. Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Have you considered which country to retire in?"

Miyoko asked.

Without thinking, Oyashiro smiled and said: "Where else can it be? I think Yunokuni is good."

"Tang no Kuni?"

"Yes. Yunokuni is the most outstanding hot spring country in the ninja world, and it is also a tourist attraction. I have invested all my pension and bought this hot spring hotel. I will enjoy a quiet and peaceful life here and have nothing to do. Just keep a pet and see the beauties on the street.”

As for the Kingdom of Thunder and the Kingdom of Fire, he was confident that this battle would not be fought.

He is not only a businessman, but also a ninja. He knows very well what the purpose of this confrontation and the Kingdom of Thunder is.

"Ah, really?"

Miyoko's expression suddenly became strange.

"What's wrong? Is it weird that I open a hot spring hotel?"

Oyashiro rubbed his chin and thought.

"No, I didn't say that. I can only say that it's a good idea."

Miyoko stood up.

"Are you leaving?"

Oyashiro asked.

"Yes, the matter is settled, let's talk about it later."

"That's right, then I won't give it away."

Miyagi lay lazily on the chair with no intention of getting up.

Miyoko is not surprised at all, Oyajo's personality is very casual, and this casualness is exactly the proof that he considers her a friend.

If you are too polite, you will tell lies.

As soon as Miyoko left, a kimono maid hurried in.

"Lord Oyajo, something serious has happened!"

"Well, what's wrong? Is someone coming to cause trouble?"

Miyajo didn't pay attention and asked easily.

With his strength, he doesn't have to care about ordinary people at all. If they come to him to cause trouble, he will let these young people know what the power of a former arms dealer is!

"That's not the case, it's Tangyin Village!"

The waitress turned pale.

"Tangyin Village?"

Oyashiro's expression became a little more solemn.

Although the country of Yu is a small country, it is not a small country without ninja villages. There is a ninja village called Yugakure in the country.

Although its strength is not well-known in the ninja world and it has never produced any famous ninjas, it is still considered a very powerful country among small countries.

It is said that Yuyin Village has also united with some local religious forces in Yuno Country. Even the daimyo of Yuno Country want to make good friends with Yuyin Village.

Although with one's own strength, there is no need to fear these small country ninja villages, but if one provokes them, it will cause too much trouble.

He plans to retire and take care of himself, so he can save himself the trouble.

"What happened? What does it have to do with Yuyin Village? Did the ninja from Yuyin Village come to cause trouble?"

This is something that Miyagi cannot understand.

He just runs a hot spring hotel. The ninjas in Tangyin Village shouldn't collect protection fees here. If they do, they are also officials from the Daming Prefecture who come to collect taxes in the name of tax collection. The Ninja Village does not have such a tax collection function.

"No, Tangyin Village was destroyed!"

After talking to the waitress, he took a big breath and finally regained his breath.

"!?"

Oyashiro's eyes widened.

Tangyin Village was destroyed?

If I remember correctly, there are still hundreds of ninjas in Tangyin Village. How could they just say no? Still within their own country.

Today is not April Fool's Day.

"real or fake?"

"I don't know. I heard people outside promoting it like this. After all, our town is not far from Tangyin Village. If Tangyin Village is destroyed, our town will definitely be the first to get the news."

Said the waitress.

"..."

The corners of Oyashiro's mouth twitched.

"I would like to ask, have you seen anyone wearing a witch costume in town recently?"

"Miko uniform? There seems to be one. It is said that she is a miko from the land of ghosts who came to travel the ninja world to gain knowledge and practice medicine to save lives."

The waitress replied softly.

"..."

Practicing medicine to save lives? I'm afraid I didn't come here to check out the information.

However, this is just speculation and cannot be regarded as actual evidence.

Because in many small countries, there are wandering witches from the Kingdom of Ghosts.

These wandering witches are different from the shrine maidens in the land of ghosts.

Those shrines are different. Although they don't cure diseases, they generally don't leave the country of ghosts, and even the shrines rarely leave. Only during important festivals, they will leave the shrines and hold festivals in towns.

As for the Wandering Miko, she only uses the shrine maiden as a guise. She is essentially affiliated with the military organization of the Kingdom of Demons. She is a medical ninja and an intelligence agent.

These wandering witches are not specialized clergy, they just wear witch uniforms. They are very good at rescuing and killing people, and they are also good at gathering intelligence.

Especially thinking of Miyoko, the strange look on his face when he heard that he was going to retire at the hot spring hotel in Yunokuni, he finally knew what was wrong.

Although there is no evidence, he is sure that the problems in Tangyin Village are caused by the military of the Kingdom of Ghosts, and they have been plotting for a long time.

"Lord Oyajo, what should we do next?"

The waitress asked worriedly.

"What to do? I want to know too."

Oya Cheng looked like he was about to cry but had no tears.

He wanted to leave Tango Country immediately, but the last pension money had been invested in this hot spring hotel, and this accident happened before it started to make a profit.

The Kingdom of Fire and the Kingdom of Thunder may not necessarily fight, but with the Kingdom of Oni joining in, even if there is no ninja war, there may be a civil war in the Kingdom of Tang.

"Go and put up a notice. I'm going to sell this hotel."

Miyagi sighed helplessly.

This hot spring hotel is about to be sold at a low price before it is heated in hands. It is really bad luck.

The Lonely Island Businessman Alliance was destroyed, and he was forced to retire early for retirement.

He was preparing to retire, but the place where he retired was also infiltrated by the Kingdom of Ghosts, and a war might break out soon.

The word "ghost" in the Kingdom of Ghosts is proof that this country's ghosts are still there.

Evil country.

Can't you afford to hide if you can't offend him?

◎

The dense forest of Tang Country.

A group of people wearing religious clerical clothing quickly shuttled through the dim forest.

Judging from their disorderly footsteps, they were running away, not on their way.

"Damn it, run faster, those guys are going to catch up!"

"Yes, Lord Bishop!"

The leader was an old man with white beard and hair, followed by a group of young men and women, who all responded and did not dare to resist.

There was a frightening red blood in the old man's eyes, his face was distorted and ferocious, and the aura emanating from his whole body was like that of an evil demon god, not the aura that humans should have.

Just as the group of clergymen were escaping quickly, the sound of a raging storm suddenly came from behind.

It's the wind escape technique.

The storm that blew violently from behind directly crushed the forest in the main area. All the clergy were devastated by the storm and fell to the ground.

Except for the leading old man who was still standing, the rest of the clergy looked frightened.

"Wait, spare us—"

A woman screamed in terror.

However, what responded to her was a cold kunai, which quickly wiped across her neck, blood spurted out, her body fell into a pool of blood, and her life disappeared.

"Ahhhhhhhh-"

Panic shouts rang out among the clergy, and they fled in panic.

Seeing this scene, the old man's face turned livid, and a black stabbing blade protruded from his cuff. He rushed to the priest who wanted to escape mercilessly, and stabbed down.

"Lord, Lord Bishop!?"

The clergy who were stabbed to death could not believe until their death that the one who killed them would be the bishop who had always taken care of them.

The old man had a fierce look on his face and said coldly: "Those who retreat will die. If you don't want to sacrifice your life for the great evil god, then kill all these pursuers!"

"But--"

Poof!

Without mercy, the priests who wavered in their belief in the evil god were immediately executed. The old man smelled the smell of blood, and his wrinkled face showed a wonderful expression of incomparable enjoyment.

Blood...what a delicious taste.

Killing... is such a pleasure.

The old man unfolded the black stabbing blade in his hand, smiled distortedly, and looked at the black-clothed ninjas surrounding him, the killing desire in his eyes could hardly be restrained.

"Since there is no way to escape, then you, the blasphemers who have no faith, should all serve as sacrifices to the evil god!"

As he spoke, he ignored the rest of the clergy and rushed forward without any fear.

That bloodthirsty and ferocious face looked like a monster from hell.

Moreover, his actions were swift and vigorous, and he didn't look like an old man in his seventies or eighties at all.

Just by staying beside this old man, one will be affected by his killing desire.

No one knows how many people have been killed for that strong smell of blood.

All the black-clothed ninjas also rushed up and rushed forward.

Whether it is the bishop or the rest of the clergy, the orders above are not to stay.

Since this kind of evil sect, which regards killing as the highest principle, is in the way, it must be eradicated and wiped out mercilessly!

"Wind Escape·Thousand-faced Wind!"

A large area of ​​the storm faced the old man head-on, drawing countless bloody holes on the old man's body. As a result, the old man cried out in pain, but cheered loudly instead.

The hot and boiling bloodthirsty desire is about to overflow from the eyes.

"It's useless! It's all useless! I am favored by the evil god, and I am an immortal existence!"

Ignoring the wounds on his body, the old man picked up the black thorn blade and rushed into the crowd, no matter whether he was attacked by the fireball or scratched by the wind escape, he didn't feel tired at all.

Physical strength and vitality seem to be in an inexhaustible state.

This abnormal situation makes people doubt whether this seventy or eighty-year-old man is human after all.

How could such an old man possess such vigorous energy and vitality.

It has simply reached an inhuman state.

The black-clothed ninja did not dare to confront him head-on, and his posture like a ghost made people feel lingering fear.

"Ah ha ha ha ha ha!"

The evil and sharp smile is as harsh and unpleasant as a knife scratching glass.

The old man frantically waved the black stabbing blade in his hand, even though all the priests around him had died, they were still fighting.

Rather, he is enjoying the battle.

Enjoy the blood and killing.

For the supreme doctrine of murder in the heart.

There is no need to hesitate to die as a martyr here.

At this moment, in the depths of the dense forest, blood flashed away.

Before the old man noticed anything, he was knocked away by the bloody light.

He rolled on the ground more than ten times before he stopped, his head felt heavy.

He stood up and saw what had knocked him away.

A huge blood dragon looked down at him from a high position.

"This is the blood successor limit of the Xuezhichi clan... the blood dragon eye that is as famous as the Sharingan. I just didn't expect that it has not been extinct until now? I heard that it was the same as the Uchiha clan, and they all suffered the scourge of extermination."

The old man seemed to have recalled something, and a very strange smile appeared on his face.

…

Forest path.

Wearing a black coat with an aster flower embroidered on it, there is also a very conspicuous round gold medal.

Kakuzu was carrying the black money box from which he had successfully collected the debt. He seemed to notice something was wrong with the atmosphere in the forest and looked up at the sky.

It was stained with a faint bloody color.

Is anyone fighting? Kakuzu stopped and thought.

At this moment, the corner of his eye looked towards the roadside.

A boy of thirteen or fourteen was squatting in the weeds on the side of the road, counting the number of wild flowers out of boredom.

Kakuzu walked over without thinking, stood behind the boy, and asked, "Hey kid, how to get to the nearby town?"

"ha?"

The boy turned around and looked up at Kakuzu with an unhappy expression.

"Stop calling me a brat, I have the name Hidan."

"Really? How to get to the nearby towns?"

Kakuzu didn't pay attention.

No matter what, he would not compete with a teenage child.

The young man named Fei Duan dug his ears and said arrogantly: "Ask for directions? It's very simple, you go and kill someone, and I'll tell you how to get to the nearest town."

"..."

Kakuzu looked at the boy named Hidan with a strange expression.

You can ask for directions by killing someone... This is really a weird kid.

However, now, rather than making money by killing people, his job is to collect debts.

Afterwards, he walked away with an indifferent expression. He always felt that fighting with this kind of brat would turn into a very troublesome thing, so it was better to leave.

Hidan snorted and stared at Kakuzu's retreating back.

"Really, it looks like the kind of blasphemer who has no faith. If you accept this kind of guy into the religion, you will be disgusted by the evil god. The bishop is also true. Why haven't you come yet? It's already exceeded the agreed time ”

Having said that, Fei Duan became impatient.
