Konoha: This ninja is suspicious by nature

Chapter 180
Hexin originally planned to leave first, but Zabuza and the others had not yet completed their mission, so he planned to follow them to see the growth of Hongye. After all, Hongye was considered a treasure he had picked up.

Zabuza and Shiro came out with Momiji, just to capture a fugitive named Five Inch Nails, not only because this man was worth 300 million taels, but also to test Momiji's strength.

Hehe was also very curious as to whether Hongye would have more chakra than Naruto. After all, they were both descendants of the Uzumaki clan.

According to the gossip that Zabuza and Shiro got, Gomura Nagi is currently hiding in a town in the Kingdom of Stone.

The Kingdom of Stone is a small, chaotic country located at the junction of the Kingdom of Wind, the Land of Earth, and the Kingdom of Rain. Due to the fact that there is no one to govern it all year round, wanted criminals running around the country come from all over the world, making it a lawless place.

And the bounty hunters that followed have also flooded. Compared with the ninjas who have their own organization, they can be said to be self-reliant ninjas.

Hexin and his party came to a town called Asia in the Kingdom of Stone. Not a single pedestrian was seen on the deserted and ruined streets, but wanted criminal notices could be seen everywhere on the walls.

Because Zabuza's reputation was too loud, he could easily be recognized in such a mixed place, so he and Haku hid in the dark, while Hexin took Momiji and Ranmaru out to find out the news.

Hexin led Hongye and Ranmaru on a deserted street. In the shops on both sides of the street, there were many people who seemed to have nothing to do and got drunk during the day. Their heads stuck out of the windows from time to time to observe.

In Asia Town, there is a 13-year-old child with two children of about ten years old. It is funny no matter how you look at it. Is this a place where children like you should come?
Xin Xin walked into a bar, and as soon as he stepped in, he shot unkind eyes from all directions. Xin Xin glanced at them, and those guys looked strange and dressed in various ways, but the same thing was that they all carried weapons.

"Boss, would you like two glasses of milk? My sister and brother are a little thirsty." Hexin led Hongye and Ranmaru to the front desk and said.

The boss joked: "No, you are in the wrong place. This is not a kindergarten."

Suddenly, people at all the tables in the store laughed, and then started to boo.

"Whose child is this? Why is he playing here?"

"The three little ones have thin skin and tender flesh. They must be delicious. I haven't eaten any of the little ones yet."

"Idiot! Wouldn't it be better to catch it and sell it to the rich."

Faced with everyone's wanton teasing, Kaoru naturally didn't take it seriously, while Hongye and Ranmaru also looked calm.

It seemed that the reaction of the three children was beyond everyone's expectations. A bald man came over with two younger brothers.

The big man spit flying across his mouth, revealing his bright golden teeth, and said, "Little friends, I think you must have lost your way. May I take you to find your mother? I'm a good person."

Hexin raised his eyes and looked at each other, "Brother, I see that your hall is dark, and I'm afraid there will be a bloody disaster. Can you please help me resolve it?"

"Boy! You have a pretty fancy mouth!"

The big man stretched out his thick right hand and was about to pick it up. Unexpectedly, a flash of sword light flashed, and the little finger of his right palm suddenly shot up into the sky. Instantly, blood shot out, and the big man covered his palm and let out bursts of screams.

When he turned his head, he saw that the person wielding the sword was a middle-aged swordsman wearing a bamboo hat.

"It's him! Bounty hunter Lian!" The people around him screamed, and then they became chilled.

The big man who had his little finger cut off continued to scream, but when he saw the person in front of him, he suddenly became mute.

The swordsman named Lian came to the bald man and said: "Team Three, a wanted fugitive from the Kingdom of Stone, worth 3 taels."

After finishing speaking, he swung the back of the knife to knock the big man unconscious, stretched out his calf and kicked him, then looked at the owner of the bar counter, "Here is for you, and I will treat these three children to drink milk." Being able to get 3 taels of money for no reason, he immediately filled three glasses of milk and gave them to He Xin.

Lian looked at He Zhan and the others, smiled slightly, then covered the scar on his face with a bamboo hat and walked out the door.

"Wait a minute!"

A red-bearded man in the next seat shouted.

"Daoji! I recognize you!"

Lian was slightly startled. As a bounty hunter, his behavior just now was too high-profile, and it was easy for someone to recognize his identity.

He didn't look back and continued walking toward the door.

Suddenly, a circle of people appeared in the open space outside and surrounded him, as if airborne, and then a group of people also poured out of the door of the bar, all holding sharp weapons and attacking him front and back.

"Daoji, don't you recognize me?" A big man wearing a bamboo hat, with a thick nose and protruding eyes walked out of the crowd, and the thick beard at the corner of his mouth moved as he spoke.

"Gomura Nai! I want to kill you even in my dreams!" Lian said sadly and angrily.

Five Inch Nails laughed and said, "I'm sorry to make you the scapegoat, but it's really annoying to be chased by you all these years, so I'll just get rid of you today."

Lian's original name was Daoji, and he was a swordsmith. Because he was helping a customer make swords, Five Inch Nails happened to break into the house, rob, and kill everyone while delivering the swords. He was a step too late and was regarded as the murderer and became the scapegoat.

He endured humiliation and lived a secret life to hone his sword skills and became a bounty hunter, living a life with no tomorrow, just to kill Five Inch Nails and prove his innocence.

Unexpectedly, he was tricked by the other party today. At this moment, he was facing a huge crowd of enemies without any fear, so he could only draw his sword and fight against him.

The door of the bar was gently pushed open, and the three of them walked out, holding warm milk in their hands.

"I'm sorry, I accidentally entered your territory. Can you let us leave?"

He looked at Five Inch Nails carefully and secretly wondered why this man looked so rough. The key was that he had long hair.

Five Inch Nails laughed out loud, "Kid! I have no sympathy for children, and I kill a lot of them. It doesn't hurt if I have three more of you!"

"That's really a pity." Xin Xin turned to look at Hong Ye, and nodded slightly.

"Hack them all to death!" Wucun Nail waved his big hand, and the younger brothers around him rushed up.

Tokichi immediately stood up and rushed into the crowd, while Hexin and Ranmaru stood still, and Hongye immediately formed a seal with his hands.

I saw a lack of crimson chakra on Hongye's body, and then his whole body was like an erratic ghost, with only a faint murderous aura looming, as if he had entered a certain state.

"I can see it, but those people can't see it." Ranmaru said aloud.

A hidden figure shuttled through the crowd. Hongye held a kunai and neatly killed Five Inch Nails' younger brother. He watched carefully and felt that he was worthy of being taught by Zabuza. Killing is so simple and effective.
