Water bears at the beginning, wet bone forest eating old people

Chapter 221 Money Exchange

"I didn't expect that there is such a peaceful place in the ninja world."

Scorpion hid in the Hiryu Amber and followed Sakumo to the Land of Hot Springs.

The Land of Hot Springs is located in the northeast of the Land of Fire. It has a pleasant climate, beautiful environment, various hot springs, and a developed tertiary industry, comparable to Tansho Street.

This was also Sakumo's first time in the Land of Hot Springs. Gu Zang had mentioned it to him before, but he hadn't taken it seriously. Now that he was here, he felt that the trip was worthwhile and that he might be able to have a good rest here.

We are all adults.

What? You mean scorpions? Scorpions are barely human anymore.

There is a Yu Ninja Village in Yu Country, but after the First World War, the poor performance of the ninjas directly led the daimyo to cut the funding for the ninjas. Like the River Country, the ninjas of Yu Country were also free.

They claim to be a ninja village that yearns for peace.

But not to mention the ninjas, the economy of this place is still quite good, and since the war between the five major countries hardly spreads to such a far place, many capable ninjas or nobles will choose to invest and consume here.

Although the three wars were raging outside, the Kingdom of Tang was still thriving.

A drunk staggered down the street, entered a pink house, and was kicked out.

Just in time, he fell in front of Sakumo and the other man.

"Ok?"

The dazed drunk stretched his neck and looked at Shuo Mao and the others with squinted eyes.

"You're dressed in weird clothes. Oh, there's another weird-looking one here too. What are you looking at? If you keep looking, I'll send you two flying with one ninjutsu! I'm a very powerful ninja!"

tread--

Just when Scorpion couldn't help but want to peel off the drunkard's skin to see how much effect the alcohol had on his internal organs, Sakumo reached out and stopped Scorpion.

"Don't cause trouble. We shouldn't use force in such a peaceful place. Besides, Akatsuki is still dormant."

"Ah......"

Scorpion sneered at the drunkard on the ground, then took a half step back.

Kong Chen helped him insert it from behind, and Xie still owed him this favor. Young people think very clearly that all the great principles and ideals are useless. Don’t I know who is good to me?

The drunkard was in a daze and walked past the two of them with the bottle of wine in his hand, not knowing that Scorpion was not someone to be trifled with.

Although he did not kill the drunkard directly, Fei Liuhu secretly raised his hand and threw a thin sword into the drunkard's body.

Under the paralysis of alcohol, the poison has not yet fully taken effect. When his blood rushes up and he is excited, his head will explode and spurt out green blood.

Sakumo noticed Scorpion's little movements, but did not stop him.

How can a traitorous ninja be a good person? Sakumo himself doesn't think he is a good person either.

The two of them ignored this little episode and walked towards the gold exchange office in Yuzhi Country.

The information provided by Konan shows that Kakuzu has been active in the Land of Hot Springs recently, seemingly hunting for a list.

In short, if you want to find Kakuzu, the best thing to do is to go to the nearest gold exchange and wait for him.

The Gold Exchange is a fairly well-known underground force, but it is usually not very conspicuous.

It can provide a certain source of funds for neutral individuals or organizations such as wandering samurai and rebel ninjas. The source is like a ninja mission. Sellers from all parties set targets and bids, and then bounty hunters complete the killing mission and bring back the body or head of the marked target as proof.

The targets marked in the gold exchange are not just ninjas.

From everyday civilian neighbors you bump into to masters and even Kages from major ninja villages, you can see their portraits in the gold exchange.

There are even rumors that the first Hokage, Hashirama Senju, the guy known as the God of Ninja, was once seen in the gold exchange, but this rumor has always been circulated as a joke.

Who would dare to attack a guy like that rashly? Five hearts wouldn't be enough, right?

The Gold Exchange has branches in all major countries, and the exchange work is completely interconnected. With the transparency of intelligence, efficient transmission speed and huge capital flow, no one would underestimate such an organization, and there are no rumors of trouble.

Maybe those who caused trouble have been dealt with.

The gold exchange office in Yu Country is located on the most famous street in Yu Village.

This is the street where Sakumo and Sasori are walking.

The hot spring hotel on both sides waved handkerchiefs at the two of them in a flashy manner.

The izakaya was not to be outdone, with young ladies wearing brightly made-up and lined up in rows, wearing small flower skirts and various styles of

Suspender stockings, knee-high socks, stockings, fishnet stockings, 3/5/7/9 stockings, medium and short black, white, gray, purple, red, blue stockings, shiny silk butter stockings... well, the latter styles are still just concepts in the ninja world.

Anyway, ninjas seem to like putting a lot of effort into their socks, that's all.

The two men walked through the crowd, and they were harassed by countless girls, but they still stuck to their bottom line and did not deviate from their route.

Shuomao felt that the mission was more important and there was still time to come back.

But Scorpion just thought they were noisy and should all be killed, as their leather should be good.

Walking all the way to the end, a dark low wall blocked the route, but intelligence showed that this was where the Yuzhiguo Gold Exchange was located.

Shuomao looked around. There was no shimmering light around him, only silence.

dong dong dong-

I knocked on the low wall, and although it seemed thick, it made a muffled sound.

giggle-

The sound of the internal machinery turning made Scorpion curious.

This large mechanism is different from the mechanism inside the puppet. Although the mechanism inside the puppet is cruder in comparison, the energy used and the structure required for the connecting axis are not more and more complicated than those of this large mechanism.

But before Scorpion could investigate, the floor under their feet suddenly sank, and the two of them stepped on empty air and disappeared from the spot in an instant.

The floor slowly moved up, and with the sound of a mechanism clicking, it closed again, as if no one had been there.

Neither Sakumo nor Sasori panicked at all.

Although he knocked on the wall and the door was right under his feet, the thing that ninjas hate most is panic.

The two fell freely into the hole, feeling the wind direction in the hole, and when they were about to land, they relied on their own abilities to stand firmly on the ground.

For ninjas who are used to moving at high speed, this is as easy as treading water.

But this can also be considered as a test by the Gold Exchange.

Without this ability, he probably wouldn't be able to complete any tasks at the gold exchange, and he deserved to die from falling.

The only things that matter here are missions and money.

After landing, the darkness in his eyes immediately changed.

Although it was a little dark in the gold exchange, there were lights on.

The bounty hunters coming and going were selecting tasks in the gold exchange. Some of them were carrying gold boxes, wary of their peers around them, and slowly walked past Shuo Mao and the others.

Are the exit and the entrance different? Or even more than one exit.

Sakumo nodded slightly, this was normal.

"Let's look for him. Maybe he's here."

"I understand, Uncle Kong Chen, but we shouldn't fight here, right?"

"Um......"

Sakumo had a headache.

How come this naughty kid has a personality completely different from Dan or Jing?

"Let's find someone first."
