Naruto Reborn: The Rise of the Tsar

Chapter 159 The Case
Looking at the mess at the scene, Fukawa frowned and said to Nishino, "What's going on? Where is the body? There are also signs of being tampered with at the scene."

"It's the guys under Pu Shan. After something happened here, the nearby residents immediately reported to him."

"When I rushed over, the body had already been moved away."

"Here, the surrounding traces have almost been cleared." Nagato also followed, "If I can see the body, I may have some ideas."

Fukawa's heart moved. The Samsara Eye possesses the ability of soul secrets. If it is Nagato, he might be able to see some clues. This is why he brought him here.

Soon, Fukawa, Nagato, Konan and Nishino stood at the door of the 'Palm Punishment Ninja' mansion.

The ninja on duty at the door was startled when he saw a familiar face. He gently stroked the bandage on his forehead and hurried forward with a sad face: "Sir, do you have anything to report?"

"There has been a murder recently." Fuchuan waved his hand casually, "Forget it, I can't tell you. You tell me how to get to the morgue, and I will go and see it myself!"

"This"

"Why, what's the problem?"

"No, no, no, no," the ninja on the side glared at his companions, and quickly bowed his waist as a guide.

Nishino's eyes were opened. This 'Palm Punishment Ninja' mansion held countless vicious criminals in the Wind City. Ordinary people couldn't stop their legs from trembling when they heard about this place.

But Fuchuan was lucky. When he came here, the people inside were trembling.

Even the other ninjas who were walking around in the courtyard turned pale when they bumped into Fukawa and the others, pretending not to see them and passing by.

Nishino looked at the scene of them running away from his group as if they were avoiding the plague, and sighed slowly, evil people still need to be punished by evil people!

On the other hand, Nagato on the side was very suspicious. Is this the residence of the legendary Shura, the ghostly and mysterious Wind Capital, the 'Palm Punishment Ninja'?
I don't know whether it was because he was not in the mansion or for some other reason, but Pushan did not show up, and everyone saw the disfigured body without any hindrance.

The damage was indeed excessive. Nagato frowned and looked at the body lying on the platform.

There are scars all over the limbs, chest and abdomen, and the part above the neck has completely disappeared.

"What's going on?" Fuchuan asked with a frown, "Where's the head?"

"This is what the body looked like when our people arrived."

Suddenly a familiar voice sounded. Nishino was startled and couldn't help but say, "Pushan?"

"How will you be here?"

Fuchuan said doubtfully.

"This is my place, am I weird here?" Pushan said disdainfully, "Don't forget, even if you are sponsoring this case now, I am still the 'Torture Master' of the City of Wind."

Nagato on the side did not pay attention to the words of the two people, but slowly formed seals with his hands. For him, it was not long ago that he gradually discovered that his pupil technique seemed to have some spiritual effects.

A mysterious aura instantly spread around Nagato.

"A ninja who is good at spiritual ninjutsu? There are quite a few capable people under his command." Kashan stared at Nagato aside for a long time, and suddenly laughed, "However, the head has been lost, no matter how good the spiritual ninja is, I'm afraid it's impossible to detect anything from inside." A moment later, after Nagato untied his hand seals and took a deep breath, Fukawa asked, "What's going on? Are there any results?"

"The deceased's head is completely missing and I can't read any memory of the deceased." Nagato looked slightly confused: "But judging from the remaining soul breath on his body, the other party should have been twisted directly when he was alive. The neck was broken, and then the whole head was cut off to prevent leakage of information."

Unexpectedly, the other party actually gained something. The tower-like man couldn't help but glanced at the slightly thin red-haired figure. After thinking for a moment, he said, "This is very similar to the way Kirigakure ninjas act."

"Generally speaking, when the ANBU of the five major countries are hunting for traitorous ninjas, in order to prevent the leakage of information, they will choose to completely destroy the body. If time is tight, they may also directly cut off the head."

"But only the ANBU of Kirigakure Village" Pushan showed a complicated meaning in his eyes. "Perhaps they like to watch their enemies die little by little. Basically, they strangle the enemy to death first and then take away the head."

"You mean there are spies from the Kingdom of Rain mixed in with the Kingdom of Wind?"

Nishino wondered, "The Kingdom of Rain is not close to here, and the Kingdom of Water did not participate in the war between the two countries of Wind and Fire. Why would they go through all the trouble to come to the Kingdom of Wind just to assassinate a few 'businessmen'?" "

"This is no ordinary businessman"

Pu Shan on the side muttered, "The Eighth Prince, more or less, controls some of the country's strategic materials. The one lying here, although his main business is silk cloth, in fact, more than half of the ninja uniforms in the Kingdom of Wind, And almost all sterile gauze and bandages are supplied by his shop."

"Could it be that the enemy is aiming to attack the enemy's logistics?"

"This is your job." Pushan glanced at Fuchuan.

"When was the first case related to spies from another country recently?"

"It was many years ago," Pushan's eyes changed slightly, "I can't remember clearly."

"I remember it was about ten years ago," Nishino, who had been silent, spoke up at this time. "It seems that a very famous family in the Wind City was exterminated. What was it called, Sangu?"

"It's up to you to verify this yourself," Pushan said in a cold voice, "I have to remind you that this is already the fourth 'Eight Grand Dukes' to be killed. Many trades in the Wind City have been affected, and the Daimyo I asked again today, if the real murderer cannot be found within this week."

Fuchuan ignored the other party's threat, turned around and left without looking back.

"There is definitely something wrong with this Pushan." As soon as he came out of the territory of the torture ninja, Nishino kept chattering on the side. "When talking about the previous cases, he started to deliberately change the topic."

"Could he be the murderer or know the murderer?" Nagato speculated on the sidelines.

"If only it were that simple," Fuchuan slowly shook his head and said, "What happened ten years ago?"

"I can't remember the specific situation clearly." Nishino tried to recall, "I was not in the Wind Capital at the time, and I only heard some rumors after I came back."

"Ten years ago, there was no such thing as the 'Eight Dukes'. At that time, there was a particularly famous merchant family in Fengdu. It was called 'Sanggu'."

"The Sangu family almost monopolizes most of the sales of goods in the City of Wind, and is as rich as any other country!"

"Even the great names of the Kingdom of Wind sighed when they saw it!"
