Chapter 74 Pretending to be Confused
Ino thinks these empty boxes with the word "fire" written on them are very problematic, so she calls her friends to come and see them. I won't take the blame for this. Not only will I not take the blame, I will also play dumb and throw it away! Choji is not interested in boxes with the word "fire" written on them, unless those boxes contain food. What? You said the boxes are empty? Why should I look at empty boxes? No!
Choji was left to guard the prisoners, while Asuma and Shikamaru came along to watch.
"This is such a troublesome matter. Should we just pretend we didn't see it?" Shikamaru kept shaking his head and sighing.
Ino showed an innocent look and waited for the person who would make the final decision.
Asuma pondered for a few seconds. The word "fire" was too obvious. It was either the Land of Fire or Konoha Village. He had served as the guardian ninja of the Daimyo of the Land of Fire. It was because he had seen too much darkness around the Daimyo that he gave up his naive ideas of his youth and returned to Konoha Village.
He believed that these empty boxes should be related to certain officials and dignitaries of the Fire Nation. Once exposed, it would be a big trap, but the suspicion of Konoha Village could not be ruled out.
It was clearly a gold mine, and the refining method was very crude, so where was the gold now? Whether it was exchanging gold for daily necessities or supporting the rebel ninjas to occupy the mines of the allied countries, as far as Asuma knew, Danzo could do all these things.
Asking Hei Chu Lei Ya at this time would definitely be the best solution, but he really didn't want to cause trouble.
Just look at Kakashi pretending to be stupid every day and you will know that being a little confused is not a bad thing in the ninja world.
"Ahem." Asuma coughed twice. He knew that his two subordinates were smart people and he didn't need to explain in detail. "These things need further investigation. It's better to report them and let the village handle it."
The hidden lines are left to his father to handle.
"Okay, I'll listen to Asuma-sensei."
"Yeah, Asuma-sensei is right."
Asuma used Fire Release to burn many empty boxes.
Danzo has committed countless evil deeds. If you want to kill him, you can find a lot of evidence. There is no point in keeping a few broken boxes.
If this was done by officials from the Fire Nation, it would be even more complicated and a few boxes would be useless.
Out of sight, out of mind. The best way is to burn it down. Even if Hei Chu Lei Ya exposes the matter later, Class 10 can say they knew nothing about it.
Then comes the division of the spoils.
Asuma's biological father is a doctor of ninjutsu. He can just ask for any ninjutsu he wants. Even ninjutsu of the level of Yamata no Satoshi can be obtained by his father. He simply looks down on the ninjutsu collected by Kuroki Raiga.
Choji doesn't care about these ninjutsu either. When have you ever seen Choji standing in the back and making hand seals with his carrot-like fingers? That means the end of the world is not far away!
Choji's "Seal" is not just low, it's very low! It's comparable to Naruto and Rock Lee. Naruto was pulled out by Jiraiya to "lay the foundation" and practiced hard for three years, and his "Seal" increased from 2 points to 3 points. What about Choji? The fat man ate and ate a lot for three years, and his "Seal" dropped from 3 points to 2 points! Except for the Third Hokage and Chiyo, who have a sharp drop in physical values due to old age and physical weakness. Choji is the only one among many ninjas whose single item value has dropped instead of rising after three years.
Being able to master the family secret technique is victory. He has no interest in fire escape or lightning escape.
Shikamaru selected several high-level lightning and water jutsu. He didn't plan to learn them, but to copy them and take them back to enrich his family's ninjutsu library.
The Nara family's accumulation of ninjutsu is far inferior to that of the Yamanaka family, who try to spy on the secrets in other people's heads every day.
Of the five million banknotes, Asuma took two million, and Ino and the other two took one million each.
It would take too long to exchange the remaining jewels and jade for money, but since Ino was very interested, I gave them all to her.
While they were dividing the loot, Ranmaru kept tearing his sleeves to stop the bleeding for Kuroko Raiga. Ino did not volunteer to use medical ninjutsu. She was worried that her medical ninjutsu, which she had not yet mastered, would kill Kuroko Raiga, so she just handed him some bandages and ointment.
"Thank you." Ranmaru was very polite.
Ino smiled: "You don't hate us? You know, it is our arrival that disturbed your peaceful life."
Ranmaru's expression was very calm: "No hatred, Raiga has said it long ago, dying on the battlefield is the fate of a ninja. We can kill others with violence, and others can naturally come to kill us, which is fair."
He bowed and lowered his head to continue cleaning the wounds of the unconscious Black Hoe Lei Ya.
Seeing a six or seven-year-old boy talking about fate, Ino's heart was shaken. Alas, this damn world! There are nine people in the Black Hoe Family. Except for Raiga and Ranmaru, the other seven are minions.
After some questioning, it was discovered that one of the young men was the grandson of Grandma Sansho.
This guy thought that making curry rice had no future, and just as the Black Hoe family was recruiting thugs, he came.
No problem, beat him up first, then educate him, and then send him back.
Shikamaru took him back to the Curry House of Life to find Granny Sansho, and bought some food for Choji. For the fat man, as long as he has food to eat, any injury can be recovered.
Ino went to rest under the shade of a tree.
As the total amount of chakra increases, the so-called "blue recovery" speed will become faster. Strong men like Naruto and Hashirama Senju seem to have endless chakra in battle. On the one hand, they do have a lot of chakra, several or even dozens of times more than ordinary ninjas. On the other hand, their recovery speed is fast. A B-level ninjutsu can be fully recovered in just a few seconds.
Ino was not at that level. She released a large number of B-level ninjutsu in succession, which consumed a lot of chakra. If it were a war era, she would need to take soldiers' ration pills to restore her strength, and then forcibly extract energy from cells to restore chakra.
This method is very destructive to the body. It is basically overdrawing your potential and physical health. Many ninjas, such as Uchiha Itachi, Sai's brother Shin, and Mangetsu Kizuki, got terminal illnesses at a young age because they overdrawn their bodies too much.
Kakashi is the same. In order to maintain the reputation of his family, he went to the battlefield at the age of six. How many injuries did he suffer? How much potential did he overdraw? How many dark things did he see? In the end, he still had 6 points of "essence". To be honest, this is already a gifted talent.
Ino would not exhaust all resources and did not need to overdraw her health to exchange for chakra. She just sat obediently under the shade of a tree, slowly recovering her strength and restoring her chakra.
Asuma wrote the mission brief, tied the scroll of sealing the thunder sword to the legs of the messenger eagle, and then released the messenger eagle.
The tenth team stayed in the Oxalis Mine that day, waiting for the village's opinion on how to deal with Hei Chu Lei Ya, Ran Wan, and the whole incident.
