Chapter 56 Try not to leave evidence when accepting private work

On the border of the Land of Fire, on the coastline across the water from the Land of Eddy, there are many fishermen gathering here. Although it has not become a village, it has a name called Awa.

This is the destination of Jiraiya and his party. Since the destruction of Uzushio Hidden Village, Awa has fishermen going to the ruins of Uzumaki to "hunt for treasure" from time to time.

Especially in the first few months when fishing just stopped, it can be regarded as an income-generating activity during the period of no income.

And the person who misunderstood the seal this time was also Awa's fisherman named Maoyou, but there is not much specific information, because the ninjas who entered Awa's investigation in the previous rounds all forgot their experiences in Awa.

The three of them did not pretend this time, because the target of the mission this time is not a ninja, or even a human being. Disguising will only consume their minds and will not help the mission.

On the outskirts of Awa, Jirai is also teaching the two how to grill fish. Although ninjas should not light a fire to grill fish when they go on missions, after all, it is easy to attract the attention of enemies or other beasts.

But the hot food is really good.

At least Chenma ate very happily. Compared with the last mission out of the village, eating Bingliang pills for a week was much better.

"Ah~ I'm so full, Minato, wash the cooking utensils, Tatsuma, light a fire and make some tea."

At the junction of the beach and the revetment forest, Zilai also spread out on the ground, rubbing his stomach and directing the two students, without complaining, they went to the river's estuary to get fresh water.

Minato squatted there and began to wash the cooking utensils, while Tatsuma returned to the fire, started to boil water, and found some tea from his backpack.

When they traveled, they did not bring any tea leaves. These teas were given by the caravan yesterday after helping them drive away wolves, including the seasonings for grilled fish.

Originally, they wanted to send money, but Ji Lai did not agree, because it became a commission, and Konoha Ninja had to go through the "intermediary" of Konoha Hidden Village to accept the task commission, and could not accept it privately.

Chen Ma took out three wooden bowls that he had just made while waiting for the fish to be grilled, and poured a little tea into each bowl. After the water boiled, he carefully poured the water into the wooden bowls.

At this time, Minato also washed the cooking utensils, and the three of them drank tea comfortably, admiring the midsummer sunset.

While drinking tea, Zilai also asked, "Did you notice something is wrong?"

Chenma and Minato nodded at the same time, Zirai also pointed at Minato, and said, "You tell me."

Minato nodded and said: "There are too many fishing boats on the shore. It is the beginning of August, the fishing moratorium has just passed, and the sea fish are fattening up. Moreover, the weather has been fine recently, and there have been no typhoons and tsunamis.

But all day today, I hardly saw any fishermen going out to sea, and no fishing boats returning. All the fishing boats were parked on the shore, which is definitely not right. "

Jiraiya nodded, Minato's observation was correct, he looked at Chenma and asked, "Chenma, what do you think? Do you have anything to add?"

Chen Ma shook his head and said, "If you don't enter Apo, there is really no way to find more clues. However, I guess it's an illusion, or a misleading of the fishermen's thinking."

Zilai also took a sip of tea and said, "Well, but are you ready? Don't forget, Apo has thousands of fishermen's families. Can you withstand the illusion that can affect so many people at the same time?"

Chen Ma nodded. He is indeed not proficient in illusion, but he is very good at playing illusion. It is a pity that there are no smart watches in this world. Otherwise, it would be better to remind himself to use illusion every 10 minutes.

"Then what do you think is the best time for us to enter Apo?"

Jiraiya asked again, of course he didn't understand, but to test the two students, Tatsuma replied: "Let's go into the night, if it is really Ninja Beast using illusion to control the fishermen, then its work and rest should be the same as the fishermen.

Unless this Ninja Beast doesn't need to sleep, or has the ability to cast illusions after sleeping. "

"Minato, do you agree?"

Minato nodded and said, "I think so too."

Seeing that the two agreed, Zilai also nodded and said, "Then let's take a rest now and leave in four hours."

"Yes!"*2
Chenma and Minato began to rest, while Jiraiya was on vigil. Four hours later, when it was approaching eleven o'clock at night, Jiraiya woke them up.

The two moved their bodies quickly, and after confirming that there was no problem, they followed Zilai and moved towards Awa.

Although it is still at the end of summer, the night at the beach is also a bit cold, but this also makes the fishermen of Apo end their day early and return home to rest.

Came to the center of Apo silently, Chenma formed the imprint of his hands, and began to use Chakra to sense the surrounding situation. Soon he shook his head, and found no abnormal Chakra.

Jilai also believed in Chenma's judgment very much, and didn't feel it himself, but said: "Actually, this is not bad news. Maybe it is not here at this time, so it is suitable for us to investigate."

After thinking for a while, Zilai also continued to say: "Take a look around and find the fisherman's home named Maoyou as soon as possible. At the same time, check the fisherman's status to see if there is any abnormality."

The two nodded, and then jumped up and ran in different directions.

About two hours later, the three of them returned to the original place, all of them had strange expressions on their faces, Zilai also looked at Chenma, and asked, "Did you find anything?"

Chen Ma subconsciously looked back at the direction he had just searched, then turned his head and said: "I didn't find Maoyou's home, but I checked the status of the fishermen and found that they are generally a little weak.

And there are a lot of stones in the kitchen, and there are even several houses with stones in the pot. "

After Chen Ma finished speaking, he looked at Minato, who nodded and said, "My side is similar. I also checked a few households that have dogs and cats, and they also have stones in their cat and dog food bowls."

"As expected of you, Minato, you are fine."

Tatsuma subconsciously praised Minato, Minato was a little embarrassed, but Jiraiya's expression suddenly became interesting.

But soon Jilai also shook his head, to get rid of distracting thoughts, and then said: "I guess, that civet cat Ninja, cast illusion on all fishermen, so that they no longer go to sea, but go to Maoyou's house to buy fish to eat.

But without fishing, there are not so many fish, so it uses illusion to disguise stones as fish and sell them to the fishermen around. This "helping others" approach is similar to before. "

Chenma and Minato also nodded, obviously they also guessed this, but they can't confirm it yet.

"It seems that we have to come again during the day. The rest of the time tonight will be spent looking for Maoyou."

Jilai also issued another order, and the three of them continued to investigate in the middle of the night. Although there were many fishermen from more than 1000 households, their luck was not so bad that they found the last one.

Before dawn, the three left Abo, and after dawn, they returned again and went straight to Maoyou's house. At this time, outside Maoyou's house, many people had already gathered, queuing up to buy fish.

A middle-aged man who is not tall, very thin and dark, is chatting with the fishermen with a smile. He is Maoyou who accidentally lifted the seal of Ninja Beast.

Chen Ma looked over and found that Maoyou's fish basket was not a stone, but a tail of fresh fat fish, and for a moment, Chen Ma also wanted to buy it and try it.

"Duang~Duang~"

Suddenly, Chenma and Minato were hit by a chestnut at the same time, and at the same time a wave of chakra rushed into their bodies, their bodies froze, and then there were no more live fish in the fish basket in the distance.
