Konoha: Doing good deeds can make you stronger

Chapter 98 The Other Side of the Tunnel

Just when Marutani Koko began to wonder whether Akamaru's sense of smell had failed because of the food at the night market, Kun, who had been silent all this time, suddenly made a new discovery.

After discovering that no one lives in the house, Marutani Ko materializes Kun and enhances his perception to help him find clues together.

Marutani Ko's actions paid off. Kun slowly swam away from Marutani Koko's side, flew straight to the center of the courtyard of the house, and finally stopped in front of the ordinary well.

"Om~~~"

Kun wagged his tail and motioned towards the well, and Marutani Kou hurriedly stepped forward and poked his head in.

There is no water in the well, which is normal. After all, no one has lived in it for so long. If no one cleans it regularly, the bottom will indeed be clogged.

The depth of the well is not too deep, and Marutani Ko can see the bottom at a glance. At the bottom is a patch of weeds, and there are various fungi that Marutani Ko can't name.

Although everything looks very ordinary, this well is obviously not as simple as it seems.

Because Kun discovered the chakra left by humans at the water well, and through his analysis, the chakra left behind is not long, just in the last few days.

Marutani wasn't sure if it had anything to do with the merchant he was looking for, but that was the end of the matter, and even if it was a coincidence, he would have to find out.

Marutani took Kun back into his body first, turned over and jumped into the well.

The well was very large, and there was even a ladder a few meters away from the mouth of the well, and Marutani got to the bottom without much effort.

As I saw just now, the bottom of the well is full of weeds, and there are no other useful clues at all, but Marutani Kou found a loophole. He looked at a small part of the weeds that had obviously been stepped on, and kicked in the direction After stepping on it, a hidden tunnel appeared.

found it!
Marutani Kou started to advance along the tunnel.

The road here has been cleared by people. Not only is there no weeds, but the road in the cave is also very smooth. However, due to the lack of light, the cave is very dark, and it is so dark that you can’t see anything. Leaning on the wall and walking forward little by little,
Walking like this step by step for nearly five or six minutes, Marutani Kou's right hand suddenly became empty, losing the wall that could support it, and a weak light shone in from the direction on the right side.

It looks like this is coming to an end.

Marutani Koko didn't know where the destination of this passage was, whether he would face the enemy directly, he took a deep breath, prepared himself mentally, hid his breath and walked slowly towards the direction of the light.

The tunnel gradually expanded, and when Marutani Kou walked out of the tunnel, the scenery in front of him had completely changed.

This, where is this?
A huge mountain appeared in front of Marutani out of thin air. He could never match the mountain in front of him with any mountain he knew. Obviously, this is a place that ordinary people don't know.

Marutani Airlines did not expect that he would open up a new map, but is there really any information about the merchant here?

"so boring."

Marutani Kou, who didn't know where to go, suddenly heard a human voice. Fortunately, the location of the burrow itself had lush trees as a camouflage, and Marutani Koko had already prepared to hide it, so he didn't attract the attention of others.

Marutani Kou looked in the direction where the voice came from, and there was a small house less than five meters away from him, and the one who spoke just now was the guard standing at the door.

There are two guards in total, one is tall and the other is fat. From their outfits, it can be seen that both of them should be ninjas.

As ninjas, the two of them did not wear the forehead guards of various ninja villages on their foreheads, nor did they have masks that symbolized the identities of Anbu and root organizations. Through these Marutani Kou can conclude that these two are not ninjas of the village, There is a high probability that they are recruited wandering ninjas.

It seems that I have found the right person, who is so close to Konoha, besides the businessman, who else would hire a wandering ninja?

However, although Marutani Koko was sure that the house was related to the merchant, he was still not sure that the merchant was in the house at this time. If he had rolled his eyes, he would be able to see the situation inside the house clearly, but unfortunately he didn't.

Marutani Kou looked past the gatekeeper and looked into the room. Although he couldn't see what was going on inside, with his super chakra perception ability, he still roughly judged that there were about ten distinct chakras in the room. These people They are all ninjas with certain strength.

The situation of the house has been roughly understood. Marutani Kou turned his head and began to observe the surroundings. Through the distribution of chakra, he found that there were no traces of other ninjas nearby except inside the house. Of course, the possibility of the existence of other non-ninja guards cannot be ruled out. But presumably ordinary guards can't pose much threat to him, so they should be able to ignore them directly.

The only enemies I need to deal with now are the two gatekeepers and the ten ninjas in the house. If I choose to take the initiative to attack, how sure are I that I can take them all down?

It is worth mentioning that the members of the root organization that he was most afraid of before did not show up. Whether it was the gatekeepers or the ninjas in the house, their chakra levels were maintained at the level of low ninja to middle ninja, which was really true for him. It's great news.

If you can't fight the root organization, can't you deal with you wandering ninjas?
For the next plan, the boy began to exercise his muscles and began to plan the next battle plan in his mind.

It's late at night, who else is there.

The fat man among the two gatekeepers yawned boredly, chatting nonsense with his fellow gatekeepers in a somewhat impatient tone.

"Are you sleepy?"

"Nonsense." The tall man curled his lips, seemingly speechless at the fat man's question.

The fat man didn't care about the tall man's reaction, and began to complain on his own.

"I don't know why we were asked to guard the gate. It's been three days. Let alone people, we even saw a rabbit."

"Complaining every day, complaining every day, it's so annoying," the tall man seemed a little tired of the fat man's complaints. "Do you know what the spirit of contract is? As long as the businessman is willing to give money, we'll just stand obediently. Why are there so many?"

"Contract spirit? Hahaha! It's so funny!" Fatty laughed out loud, "You mean contract spirit? Have you forgotten why you were escaped from the village?"

"none of your business."

"Hehe, other people might believe what you said, but I don't believe it! You are a murderer who killed his whole family for a barrel of gold coins."

"What qualifications do you have to say about me?" The tall man didn't retort, but just snorted coldly, turned his head and didn't want to look at the fat man's annoying face, and began to count the things the fat man had done, "You broke into the house in the middle of the night and raped and killed people His wife, and killed all the parents who woke up in his family, you are talking about this in front of me now? Boring."

The fat man was reminded of the past, not only did not get angry, but showed a hint of intoxicated expression.

"Speaking of it this way, it's true, that girl's skin is really slippery, that breasts, that ass, uh"

"Hehe," the tall man was quite disdainful when he heard the fat man's sudden and disgusting breathing, "You are really a pervert."

"Boom."

Suddenly, the tall man heard a muffled sound behind him, as if something had hit the ground.
