Chapter 41: Murder Case Caused by Running Away

"Come again!"
"Come again!"
"continue!!!"
A woman's powerful voice came from the store entrance .
And around her were hero eggs piled high.
There is no doubt that the reason why they are piled up like this is because none of them include the limited edition "one in a million".
"Tsunade-sama...why not?"
Jingyin looked nervously at the people who were gradually surrounding her. She went from excitement to uneasiness and then to panic.
In the end, I was so embarrassed and nervous until now that I just experienced the "Hero Egg Opening Performance by Lady Tsunade".
To be honest, she was really happy at first.
Even though Lady Tsunade didn't set a limit in the end, the feeling of being valued and the thoughtfulness made her very satisfied.
Although I do have a little bit of expectations in my heart.
What if Lady Tsunade can perform a miracle with her great strength?
However, I only thought that Lady Tsunade would buy thirty or forty, or forty or fifty of them.
It’s definitely not like this now!
Shizune held her head.
But who is Tsunade?
That's the legendary fat sheep.
Once he gets carried away, even two oxen can't pull him back.
And now, she is obviously overwhelmed.
And it is quite serious, to the point where one is deaf to everything around him.
“Give me another pack!!!”
She just didn't believe it. It was just a 'limited' requirement. Let her work hard to create a miracle!
At this time, Tsunade no longer considered cost, time or luck.
Just reckless.
In this kind of probability game, as long as she is reckless enough, there will be no problem of not getting the goods.
This is much easier than rolling the dice.
However, Tsunade was willing to give it a try, but Boss Dian was not.
Of course he was happy to have a big customer coming, but he was planning on a long-term flow of this batch of goods.
There are many people waiting to buy it.
Besides, this guest's blushing face doesn't look normal at all.
The grocery store owner is just an ordinary small business owner. He is not like those people who run casinos. The crazier and more excited the customers are, the happier he is. He would like to squeeze a customer until there is nothing left and then kick him out.
What he wants is stability and a long-term flow of income.
If this guest went crazy, he would not be able to cope with it.
Thinking of the crazy looks of those who went crazy because of gambling, the expression on his face became even more bitter:
"Sir, please take a rest today..."
"No."
The boss tried to give her a way out, but Tsunade refused more bluntly.
"Don't worry, I have plenty of money."
Not only that, she even showed more unwillingness to accept the result.
It’s just money, I have plenty of it.
——This is really not a question of money!
The boss groaned in his heart.
He is afraid of something happening!
Didn’t you see that everyone around you was gathering here?
What if other people think that he is a black shop? Then his reputation will be ruined. Who will come to buy things from him?
In fact, most people who sell things hope that good things will happen to the customers they receive.
For example, winning a prize, getting a promotion or a raise.
In this way, they will also have a good reputation, and people will be more inclined to come here, whether for the good reputation or for the joy that the store can bring.
On the contrary, if rumors spread like "the store is counterfeiting" or "this store is particularly unlucky", then bankruptcy will not be far away.
But since the guests were here, he couldn't just chase them away, so he could only force a smile and try to use a tactful way to remind the other party to be moderate:
"Well, then are you tired? Otherwise, let's continue tomorrow..."
"Not tired, not tired, boss, come again!"
Tsunade waved her hand.
Let the boss continue to renew your package.
Because of Orochimaru's excellent anti-theft measures, no one knows which one is the hidden version before the box is opened. And because the box cannot be restored once opened, there is only one chance to confirm the brand new hero egg.
It’s the moment it’s opened.
Therefore, unless the boss does not want to sell the product anymore or wants to go all out to sell the limited edition product at the highest price, a product with intact packaging is equivalent to having never been opened.
Naturally, there is no possibility that precious limited edition products will be replaced.
From some perspectives, it can be said to be quite fair.
It all depends on luck and chance.
...Of course, African chiefs are an exception.
——Goodbye.
Hearing her words, the boss and Shizune both looked like they wanted to cry but couldn't.
The former was worried that her dark appearance would give other customers a bad impression of their store, while the latter began to worry about their living expenses.
You have to know that they are now wandering outside, with neither subsidies from the village nor income from missions.
However, Tsunade didn't care.
“Come again!!!”
——Her generous voice could be heard halfway down the street.
That day, not only the rarity of the limited hero egg became famous.
A new legend was born on the street.
'One hundred, one limit' - only one woman bought over two hundred and didn't get the limited edition.
Although she eventually got it thanks to her "money ability".
But the boss also has to prepare to go to Yuyue Store to purchase goods again.
There was no other way, Tsunade bought most of the goods he imported this time by herself.
Although there were still some left, it was obviously not enough for his original sales plan.
The boss is worried.
He had only been back for two days and he already had to make another trip.
It would be nice if there was a more convenient way to get the goods.
The boss scratched the back of his head and began to worry about the future business problems.
Goods like this will always be more popular the sooner they are sold.
Although the boss was very bitter, Tsunade's "one battle to fame" was also an alternative advertisement for Ugetsu's "Hero Egg", letting people know what a noble existence "limited" is.
Whether it is the rumors of "Hero Egg" or "Hidden Edition", they have reached a new height.
There were even cases where people started to buy the hidden funds at high prices - this happened much earlier than Yu Yue had originally expected.
And on Konoha's side.
After three days of torture of being sent back for rewriting.
Jiraiya finally rose up again.
What does it mean that the character's personality is not distinct!
What do you mean by a plot that is not tight enough and has no hooks!
He is one of the three ninjas! He is the suave and charming Mushige Mushimo Immortal!
How could I be tied up here and stop here just because of a weird novel?
It was indeed wrong for him to peek, but a momentary mistake could not trap a free immortal like him!
So Jiraiya left the half-written draft behind and prepared to run away
.
The world is so big, he doesn't believe that after he runs away, these people will be able to catch him all over the world.
Even if they wanted to find him... He was an experienced ninja, what could these youngsters do to him? At most, he wouldn't come back to the village to report in the next few years, and he could just use ninja beasts to pass on information.
Jiraiya thought to himself, and was very confident in his escape plan.
He felt that after all, he had been on the battlefield for so long, and it was possible that he couldn't even escape from Konoha.
So he generously left a note saying "Lord Jiraiya is going on a journey" and disappeared from the room.
Freedom! Here I come!
He has worked so hard for so many years, not just to work like a slave here!
Jiraiya rushed out.
"Now!"
A huge net covered Jiraiya from all directions.
Several ninjas rushed over from all directions.
"Master Jiraiya, please surrender!"
The leading Chunin exclaimed.
Jiraiya certainly wouldn't be caught by such a simple trap.
He twisted his body flexibly and escaped from the attack range in a few jumps.
Not only that, as if to vent his frustration at being pushed back to the outline a few days ago, he spoke loudly:
"You're still a long way from catching me!"
After he said that, he turned around gracefully on the spot.
——Then he got face to face with a black-haired and black-eyed Uchiha.
The Uchiha opposite smiled shyly, but did not stop his hands.
A barrage of steel wires and shurikens came towards him.
"Lord Jiraiya, please give up struggling and don't make things difficult for us."
Jiraiya: ???
Who is making things difficult for whom?
Aren't you Uchiha members of the Konoha Guard? Why are you here to join in the fun!!!
Although he roared in his heart, Jiraiya did not stop.
I saw him instantly split into two, without stopping, moving quickly between the roofs of the houses, making it very lively.
The pursuing troops also grew from three or five in the beginning to a large force in the end.
In the middle, there were also some people who thought something had happened and followed along.
In fact, they didn't know what was going on, nor who was chasing them. They just watched people chasing them, and they were confused.
Get up and chase after him.
If anything happens, I can lend a hand.
If nothing happens, I can have more things to talk about when I go back and brag about it to others... In short, it's not a loss at all!
Follow up, follow up.
So the pursuit force continued to expand and eventually turned into a torrent of ninjas.
When they found that they could not fight alone, the ninjas spontaneously formed temporary teams, combined them according to their individual ninjutsu or bloodline limits, and formulated capture plans.
"Catch him!"
"There's someone over there! I saw him!"
"That's the clone over here! Don't come over here!"
"Team C eliminates one of the clones, Team A goes east, and Team B follows me to the west."
"Team A received!"
"Team B received!"
"Someone has taken the things! Leave the north and south to us!"
"learn!!!"
It was as if all of a sudden, the entire Konoha was boiling.
Instead, those who were entrusted by Ugetsu to keep an eye on Jiraiya became a small part of them.
Everyone is confused
"Captain, we..."
Should I pursue her or not?
One of the team members standing on the eaves looked at his captain blankly.
It has become like this... Is this still their mission? Why do I feel like it has nothing to do with them?
"Of course! This is our mission. Wouldn't you feel ashamed if you were caught by others?"
The captain gave him a slap on the head and chased after him again.
"We must not let others complete the task first!!!"
Losing to the cooperative Uchiha would be fine, but if someone else captured Lord Jiraiya first, where would their face be?
The ninjas who accepted the mission rushed forward with all their might.
Humans are creatures that are easily led, and seeing this, they unconsciously quickened their pace.
As a result, this pursuit became more and more lively and sensational.
The number of people mobilized and the wide range of operations far exceeded expectations.
A commotion of this magnitude would naturally not fail to alarm the Hokage.
After listening to the report from the Anbu, the Third Hokage couldn't help but cover his forehead.
He's already an adult, why can't this disciple be a little less of a worry?
Tsunade disappeared on the battlefield, and he finally settled those who said she was
The rebel ninja is about to issue a wanted warrant for her.
Here comes Jiraiya again.
The previous incident of peeping into the women's bathing pool has not completely passed - the victim said that he was given a chance to make amends, so why can't he cherish it?
Wouldn't it be better for you to be obedient and complete the task in exchange? No matter how difficult Miss Yu Yue's task can be,
The only one who was a little less worrying was Orochimaru, but in recent years, he began to find that he could no longer understand this student.
Not only his research, but also when exactly he and Danzo got together, he himself didn't know.
As a teacher, am I a failure?
"Sama: Sandaime, then Jiraiya-sama..."
"Send someone to catch him, and then make him work for Miss Yu Yue to atone for his sins."
The third generation paused.
"Just say I said it!"
At this point, even the nice guy got angry.
"clear!"
The Anbu who reported the incident disappeared instantly.
Namikaze Minato then stepped forward:
"Teacher, he..."
"Don't ask for mercy for him."
Sandai interrupted him in a rare strong tone.
"…If it doesn't work, Minato might have to go there as well."
Sandai rubbed his forehead and felt that he had aged a few years in an instant.
When you are young, you can say that this is true nature and uninhibited. But now that you are so old and still doing this, the Third Hokage doesn't know what to say.
Especially when looking at Minato Namikaze, who was standing obediently beside him and looked reassuring no matter how he looked at him, the contrast between the two was even more difficult to accept.
"If only he, as a teacher, could be half as reassuring as you, as a student."
Then he can rest in peace with a smile on his face.
"No, Master Jiraiya was just saying it in a slightly more heroic way."
As a student, Minato Namikaze naturally would not speak ill of his teacher.
"Is that one o'clock?"
Sandai couldn't help but raise his voice, but he immediately regained his senses.
"Anyway, Minato, you stay on standby. If necessary, go and bring Jiraiya back."
The blond young man lowered his head slightly:
"Yes, sir."
No matter what happens in Konoha, Danzo will notice it. This time is no exception.
Reported to Danzo.
At first the Anbu people thought it was an enemy attack, but when they noticed that the person being chased was Jiraiya-sama, the apprentice of the Third Hokage, the Root ninjas were also numb.
What is this?
Could it be that Lord Jiraiya... has rebelled?
This was not something they could judge and solve on their own, so people rushed to find Danzo. After discovering that there were people from the Anbu among the people chasing them, they urgently reported the situation again.
At first, Danzo thought that Jiraiya was sneaking into the girls' bathroom again - after all, this was something that the troublesome student of the Third Hokage could do.
Danzo has always looked down on Jiraiya in the past.
The talent is not good, the temperament is not good. He is disobedient to his elders and lawless... He has no idea why Hiruzen chose such a person as his apprentice.
Even though he had some adventures later on, he was still the most lagging one among the Three Ninjas. He even disappeared without a trace before the war was over. I heard that he became a novelist later on...
Ungrateful thing.
"Go and get him back."
Shimura Danzo snorted coldly.
"It doesn't matter if they lose their hands or feet. If they can threaten the village, they will be killed without mercy."
Originally, Jiraiya and Tsunade had been outside for a long time, and there were many complaints about them, and many people thought that they had become traitors - but the matter was suppressed because Hiruzen guaranteed it.
Now that the other party has put the handle in his hand, he can't blame him for being rude.
"Yes, sir!"
"Wait."
Seeing that the Root people were about to leave, Danzo Shimura seemed to remember something and called them to stop.
"It's a good opportunity to find out what kind of work that little girl Yu Yue entrusted him with."
It can't be a job of capturing people to make toys and fooling ninjas anymore.
the latter……
Shimura Danzo narrowed his eyes.
Although Yu Yue did not deliberately avoid people, Xin was not in the store on the day of the negotiation.
Therefore, he only knew that Jiraiya had come to discuss something with Miss Ugetsu, but he had no idea about the specific content of the discussion.
When reporting to Danzo, he could only tell him everything he knew.
I don’t know… Then there’s nothing he can do, he can only say he will find out later.
And this is what made Danzo feel that there was something wrong.
An Uchiha Shi
Water and Hatake Kakashi, the former is Uchiha and the latter is the apprentice of Minato Namikaze.
They are all "third generation faction" completely.
Therefore, Danzo Shimura had every reason to suspect that this was actually what Sarutobi Hiruzen wanted to do to pave the way for Namikaze Minato.
Otherwise, he thought that there was no need for the little girl to find another third-generation apprentice to work for her, and it just so happened that the discussion took place when his own spies were being sent out.
Don't call it a coincidence.
He couldn't believe that such a coincidence could happen in the world.
It just so happened that only the third generation of disciples met her requirements.
Just wait and see.
Recalling the depression and humiliation brought upon him by Hiruzen and the little girl, Danzo looked out the window with cold eyes.
This time, he will definitely catch them.
The Root ninja took the order and left.
Outside, the 'Jiraiya capture operation' has almost reached a fever pitch.
Neither side was prepared to destroy the village, so the battle moved to the edge of the village. Further out was a training ground or something like that.
It's okay to use some ninjutsu that can cause mass destruction.
Both sides became more relaxed.
Here, he uses Earth Style: Yellow Spring Swamp, and there, he immediately uses Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique to dry it up.
When someone here uses Fire Style: Flame Bullet, someone over there immediately uses Water Style: Water Array Wall. And relying on their numbers, they use Water Style: Water Dragon Bullet or something else out of the blue.
A manhunt turned into a battle of offense and defense.
In fact, it stands to reason that the pursuing party has more people and greater strength, so even Jiraiya should be outnumbered and be defeated early.
However, the fact is that although the Konoha side has a large number of people, they are also skilled in forming teams.
But the team was formed temporarily after all, and tacit understanding needs to be cultivated.
In the past, teams have not necessarily cooperated with each other, and various problems are likely to arise between actions.
After all, not all of Konoha's ninjas have fought directly on the battlefield.
People like those who are responsible for the internal defense of the Wood Industry and the Konoha Guard have relatively less tension and cooperation.
Either you hit me, or he and she did it again.
There were also occasional situations where the nets or traps set up would harm their own people. There was even a point where the pursuers almost started fighting among themselves.
This gave Jiraiya, who was experienced in combat, time to dodge and catch his breath.
If it was a normal fight, the kind where he could kill without mercy, Jiraiya would actually be able to fight his way out.
But this was his own ninja village after all, if he dared to be ruthless, the old man would be the first to rush out and kill him. So he could only avoid those techniques that he was good at and had stronger lethality, and chose to jump up and down to escape.
As a result, the two sides have achieved the current evenly matched situation.
Jiraiya couldn't do anything to them.
They also had no way to effectively control Jiraiya.
But there are also benefits.
"…This looks like a complete simulation."
Ugetsu, who was brought out by Uchiha Shisui to watch the fun, gave an appropriate conclusion to the ridiculous scene before him.
That’s right, this is exactly the posture of a trainee and a sparring partner.
It’s just that the scale of this performance is a little bigger, the number of people is a little more... and the lethality is a little more fierce.
At least in general acting, people don't do destructive things with overwhelming force.
Nor will it overturn a piece of land like a plow.
Ugetsu looked at Jiraiya who was jumping up and down, a sneer appearing on his face.
Do you think you can run away like this?
Then you are really naive.
Ugetsu might not understand ninjas, but she knew all too well what people would do to avoid their jobs.
Especially Jiraiya, who looked restless at first glance.
Running away was almost inevitable, so of course she would make the corresponding arrangements.
Go to the Hokage's place through the back door to get a mission, and then have Shisui tell the Uchiha of Konoha Guard to patrol this area more often. If you see Jiraiya running away, come out and stop him.
After all, Jiraiya had agreed to the job before, and running away now would mean "running away from the order" - which, if rounded off, would also be considered a violation of the ninja's spirit of contract.
The only thing she didn't expect was that it would turn into such a big scene in the end.
It's almost like a sports meet or a challenge event.
Huh?
Speaking of level-breaking challenge events, it seems that Ninja World doesn't have any at all...
Yu Yue vaguely felt that she seemed to have discovered a new project.
Back then, the challenge activities broadcasted by various TV stations were also very popular.
Seeing Yu Yue's thoughtful expression, Uchiha Shisui thought she was worried that things would end badly, so he could not help but comfort her softly:
“There’s nothing wrong with that.”
Not to mention comforting him, as a ninja, Uchiha Shisui also felt that it was good to have the opportunity to fight against a master like this.
The reason why a master is a master is not only because of his great strength.
Also because he has rich combat experience, which means that he has more operations and options when facing a battle.
Many problems that you don’t know or are not aware of can be discovered by discussing with experts. This is a good thing.
In fact, if it wasn't for protecting Miss Ugetsuki.
Uchiha Shisui himself was also eager to go forward and give it a try.
Don't hold back, don't worry.
Just be confident and bold and use everything you have learned and thought.
For ninjas, this is undoubtedly the most practical and effective practice besides actual combat.
It’s just that the scale is a bit too large, maybe the third generation master will have some difficulties?
But after all, Lord Jiraiya is the disciple of the Third Hokage.
...There shouldn't be any problem.
After listening to Uchiha Shisui's explanation, Yu Yue felt relieved and began to think about how to better solve this "accident". It might not be a bad thing, but for Konoha, it was indeed an "accident".
How to solve it depends on what you are going to do above.
If someone really wants to find fault, this will undoubtedly be a handle that is delivered to their doorstep.
After all, if she hadn't gone, things wouldn't have developed to this point.
But...
She rolled her eyes.
Just as Uchiha Shisui said, it's not entirely a bad thing.
So is it a "handle" or a "good thing" that can be used to blackmail others...
It all depends on how people operate it.
“Be careful!”
Uchiha Shisui, who had been maintaining the long-distance learning mode, suddenly looked stern. He picked up Yu Yue and retreated several meters.
After his action, a group of men in black appeared silently and joined the originally stalemate fight.
They are dressed in black and wearing masks, and their style is different from that of the others.
His actions were not like those of other people, who focused on capturing people and only killed people as a supplement.
——Or to put it simply, it means 'take it down quickly, regardless of life or death.'
People realized that something was wrong, and Jiraiya, who was being attacked, could of course
Be aware of the problem immediately.
Are you kidding? Aren't the attack powers just on the same level?
Jiraiya's expression also turned serious.
He even took advantage of the hesitation and trance of the ordinary ninjas to keep some distance so that he could better fight against the men in black who came later.
This time, no matter the ninjutsu or ninja tools used, the lethality is incomparable.
Jiraiya certainly believed that the ninjas of his village would not kill him, but looking at the current situation, he could escape the death penalty but could not escape the punishment of living.
——Why is the old man so cruel?
While he was muttering to himself, he carefully avoided attacks that could cause him to be crippled.
At the same time, one must be careful not to cause serious harm to these 'compatriots' - although the other party has no such intention at all.
However, just as a fierce battle was about to break out, people discovered a new surprise.
——Two groups of masked men in black.
Instead they started fighting.
It's not all a head-on confrontation to the death, but rather the discovery that each other's goals are inconsistent and there is a high probability of conflict, which leads to internal strife and the beginning of trying to trip up each other.
The cat mask and the dog mask are fighting!
Fox Mask is about to launch a sneak attack!
Octopus Mouth discovered the fox mask!
The fox mask and the octopus mouth fit together!
Kunai! It's a kunai!
The kunai actually flew towards Jiraiya!
Oh my god! There is a steel wire behind the kunai!
The result is that ordinary pursuers have all started to watch from the front.
Some ninjas even turned on the explanation mode to explain the technical points to their juniors.
Jiraiya, the person involved... is quite embarrassed.
He was in a dilemma.
If he tries to run away, both sides will put aside their past grudges and attack him together.
But if he doesn't leave, he can only stay here, like a fishing bait.
Watch those fighting 'fish' come up from time to time to give you a bite.
It's really embarrassing and awkward.
He even hoped that someone would come and just take him away.
After all, it won't be worse than it is now.
The blond young man who appeared at this time was like a savior.
"Please stop it, everyone."
Upon receiving the news that the Anbu and the Root were fighting, Minato Namikaze had no choice but to go out urgently.
No matter what, we cannot let our family members get angry and get injured.
As for the person involved, Jiraiya...
The young man smiled brightly:
"Master, you will definitely come back with me, right?"
——Do you seem to allow me to say no?
Jiraiya's eye twitched.
He subconsciously took a step back and wanted to raise his hands to show his acceptance of his fate.
As a result, a Root ninja whose nerves were stretched to the extreme thought that he was going to make another move and attacked subconsciously.
In fact, it was not a dangerous large-scale ninjutsu. He just used some ninjutsu to block his retreat route.
It wasn't much of a threat to Jiraiya, so he dodged it easily.
But then, there was a cry of pain from behind, and the dull sound of a human body hitting the ground. !
