Konoha: The thirty-year-old Uchiha is not motivated.

"A-choo!~"

The capital city located in the heart of the Land of Fire can be said to be the most prosperous city in the entire Ninja World. The tall city walls were bustling with people, and the streets were filled with a dazzling array of goods, which dazzled the three women's eyes. They immediately left behind Uchiha Gin, who was sneezing for some reason, and headed towards the commercial street together.
"Let's go shopping~"

"Remember to get the invoice and meet at the hotel later."

Uchiha Yin gave an instruction and touched his red nose. He couldn't help wondering in his heart which girl missed him so much.

When he looked up again, the three women were no longer there. Uchiha Gin could not help but shook his head helplessly.

"Sure enough, once a woman enters shopping mode, she can forget all her worries~"

But it's also good this way. I can enjoy some free time and by the way, I can go to the places where women in the Fire Nation work with a critical attitude and investigate thoroughly.

"Today is a good day for foot washing~"

Uchiha Gin hummed an unknown tune and walked towards the bathing street with a sign that was full of metaphors. Just when he was eager to try and show his skills, a man in a black robe whose face could not be seen suddenly came up behind him and handed him a small card in a cryptic manner.

"Forehead!"

Uchiha Gin was not wary of this mysterious man who had no ill intentions. Instead, he quickly snatched the suspicious card.
"Oh, you're really good at judging people."

No! The world is going downhill, there are so many men, but he was the only one who gave Uchiha Gin a small card. Is he like a ladybug?

As if greatly insulted, Uchiha Silver raised his eyebrows, stuffed the card into his pocket with an indignant look on his face, and refused righteously,
"Who do you think I am?"

"Master Yin, we are one of us"

The mysterious man was stunned by Uchiha Gin's double-faced boxing style. After being stunned for a long time, he whispered in a strange tone,
"what?"

I, Uchiha Gin, am a well-known pure and innocent man in this area. You are just a person posting advertisements. Who would consider you as my friend?

"Don't recognize me randomly. This is my first time in a place like this. I have never even heard of Tian Shang Ren Jian or Bai Ma Club."

Feeling that he was being slandered, Uchiha Gin quickly refuted, but his tone was a little unconfident.

"Master Gin, I am a member of the Ghost Soldier Corps."

Seeing that the situation was getting worse and worse and that he might be exiled to the Snow Country if he knew too much, the mysterious man quickly lifted his hood, revealing an ordinary uncle face. His pair of scarlet eyes were filled with helplessness. He looked at Uchiha Gin who had turned into a self-destructing truck and revealed his identity.

"Ahem. Do you know what a veteran actor is?"

Uchiha Gin, who was explaining enthusiastically, just recognized the person in front of him. It was the clan member he had questioned when he visited his uncle not long ago. His face froze immediately and he coughed a few times to ease the embarrassment.

"Master Yin, this is not the place to talk. Please follow me."

Now that the connection had been established, the clan member no longer concealed anything. He whispered something to Uchiha Gin, then turned and walked towards the dark alley at the corner of the street.

It just so happened that Uchiha Gin also had something he wanted to ask them, so he followed him into the dark alley.

The narrow and damp alley was actually deeper than Uchiha Gin had imagined. After walking for about five or six minutes, the tribesman in front stopped in front of a small door that was integrated into the wall. He stretched out his hand and knocked lightly three times, then lowered his hand and waited.

"Ginny?"

Just as Uchiha Gin was puzzled, a dull voice suddenly came from inside the door. Those two simple words seemed to span two and a half years.

"Ishiya Taimi."

"The code is correct."

Creak~
As the door opened, the clan member waved to Uchiha Gin and went in first.
"Ah this."

Are you sure this is the Ghost Soldier's base and not Heizi's chicken coop?
Uchiha Gin's eyes twitched slightly, but he still followed in.

As soon as I entered the door, my vision suddenly widened. Inside the small secret door, there was actually a very large space. Many people wearing the same clothes as the previous tribesman were walking back and forth.

Seeing a stranger coming, everyone stopped what they were doing at the same time. Dozens of cold eyes fell on Uchiha Gin. After confirming the identity of the person, their previous coldness gradually turned into a strong fanaticism.

"It's Lord Yin!"

"It's the living Lord Yin!"

"Master Yin actually came to the grassroots level!"

"."

No, why are these guys so excited?

Uchiha Gin almost got lost in the inexplicable cheers. He suppressed his anger and nudged the tribe member who brought him here. He asked in a low voice,

"Are you guys a proper ghost army here?"

"Yes, Lord Yin. We are the Fire Country Office of the Ghost Soldier Corps. All the soldiers stationed here are the elite of the clan."

The tribesman puffed out his chest proudly and answered very seriously,

"Then why are they so excited?"

"It is the highest honor for every member of the Ghost Soldier Team to meet Lord Silver, the founder of the Ghost Soldier Team."

No, Uchiha Gin formed a security team out of interest back then, and he never thought that they could grow into top-level security guards.

"You didn't ask me to come here just to comfort you, did you?"

There was no working atmosphere at all. Uchiha Gin, who felt cheated, rolled his eyes and couldn't help complaining,

"How is that possible!"

The tribe member who led him here straightened his face and slowly pulled out a small notebook from his arms. Just when Uchiha Gin thought that the other party had some information to tell him,

"Please give me an autograph, Master Yin!"

The other party suddenly bent down, handed the small notebook respectfully to Uchiha Gin, and pleaded with an uncontrollable excitement,

"Ah? Heita, you are so mean!"

It turns out that this ordinary-looking Uchiha in front of me is named Heita, which suits his appearance quite well.

"Master Yin! Please give me your autograph~"

While he was in a daze, Uchiha Gin was surrounded by countless team members. These guys were holding small notebooks and signing boards and poking him in the face.
"Don't worry, come one by one."

Facing the enthusiastic tribesmen, Uchiha Gin, who was enjoying the spotlight for the first time, felt a little flattered, and immediately signed for everyone happily.

"Master Yin, these are my winning underwear, please sign them for me!"

A sturdy Uchiha brother shyly pulled out a pair of weathered boxer briefs from his arms.

"roll!"

Uchiha Gin, who suddenly felt the pain in his eyes, narrowed his eyes, and the black flames instantly revived the dirty underwear.

"No! My Pochi-chan!"

"Thank you, Lord Yin!"

After signing, the young man named Heita looked grateful and kept bowing to Uchiha Gin to express his gratitude.

"Okay, okay, I'm about to catch a cold from your slapping. I just happen to have something to ask you."

"Master Yin, please speak up. I will tell you everything I know."

"I encountered a group of fully armed ghost soldiers in the capital of Taki Country before. Where did they come from?"

Recalling the leader of the Demon Soldier Corps who almost arrested Hozuki Gengetsu and Wu, Uchiha Gin couldn't help but feel curious.

"Taki no Kuni should be the latest batch of peacekeeping forces."

Uchiha Heita thought for a moment, then answered,

Peacekeeping force?

I don't have any weird ideas, so what is my uncle doing while I'm away?

As if he saw Uchiha Gin's confusion, Uchiha Heita immediately explained.

"The so-called peacekeeping force is a special team that maintains regional security and stability. It was the Daimyo of Taki no Kuni when the Daimyo Federation was established."

Listening to Uchiha Heita's story, Uchiha Gin finally understood the whole story.

It turned out that because of the Takigakure tragedy, the Daimyo of Takigakure was worried that the crazy rebel ninjas would harm the nobles.
So he found the Daimyo of Wave Country, with whom he had a very pleasant chat before, hoping that he could help him and stabilize the situation.

Although the reputation of the Oni Corps is not well-known in the ninja world, it is widely known in the aristocratic circle. It is said that a great nobleman went out to sea for fun when he had nothing to do, and encountered a well-known rebel ninja from the Hidden Mist Village. Not only were all his guards killed and fed to sharks, but he himself was also kidnapped and blackmailed.

At the critical moment, a group of ghost soldiers on patrol happened to pass by and captured the rebel ninja in no time. After the noble who escaped death returned, he naturally used this incident as a topic of conversation among the upper class.
While demonstrating his own bravery and fearlessness, he also boasted about the unfathomable combat effectiveness of the Ghost Army, which for a while caused nobles from various countries to imagine.

Some people say that ordinary members of the Demon Soldier Corps have fighting power comparable to that of a Jonin, and their leader can even fight back and forth with a Kage-level warrior. The story gets more and more mysterious as it spreads, and some even say that Kage-level is only the basic standard for entry into the Demon Soldier Corps.

"So, you are now No. 1 on the aristocratic circle's hot search list?"

Uchiha Gin looked at Uchiha Heita, who had a high nose, with a strange expression on his face.

"That's right! Our appearance fee is not low."

Uchiha Heita was not lying. The maintenance cost of the ghost army in the capital of Taki Country was as high as millions a day.

"No wonder my eldest cousin complained earlier that recently the number of missions to escort nobles from small countries has decreased by more than half. It turns out that you guys have stolen them away~"

Recalling Uchiha Madara's complaints in the mission hall office, Uchiha Gin suddenly realized that the money had not left Konoha, but had changed the way to protect Uchiha~
Isn't this the prototype of the future guardian ninja?

"It's not that exaggerated. The nobles of the five major countries still don't really recognize our Ghost Soldier Corps. Only the nobles of countries with weaker or no ninja villages will contact us."

After hearing what Uchiha Gin said, Uchiha Heita felt a little embarrassed. He scratched his sparse hair and explained,
After all, the strength of the ninja villages of the five major countries is there, and they have accumulated a lot of reputation over the years, so the nobles of the major countries generally give priority to the ninjas of their own ninja villages to undertake guarding tasks.

"You guys are already pretty good. It's not in vain that you've been raised. You can finally generate income for the Kingdom of Waves~"

Seeing that the gold bricks he threw out did not fall into the sea, Uchiha Yin was very relieved, but when he thought that he was now in the capital of the Land of Fire, he became a little confused and asked,
"But since the nobles of the great country have not yet recognized the Ghost Army, why are you setting up a base here?"

"The Demon Soldier Corps has bases in the capitals of all countries, responsible for real-time monitoring of the movements of the daimyo and nobles." Uchiha Heita blinked and replied in a strange tone.
"Who has so much free time to let you monitor these parasites?"

Living in this era of strict class divisions, Uchiha Gin, who was born in a flower-growing family, naturally sneered at such feudal remnants, but was too lazy to change. After all, it was too troublesome and did not fit his lazy personality. He just wanted to live every day leisurely.

"Lord Eyin is really a forgetful person. Wasn't this your order back then?"

"what?"

Uchiha Gin was confused. When had he ever given such an order?

"You said that you would use your great name to control the shadows. I will take care of your wife and children."

"Snapped!"

There was only a crisp slap sound, and Uchiha Gin slapped his forehead hard, his eyes full of helplessness.
"Do you know how much I drank at that time? Can drunken words be taken seriously?"

"Ah, this. We"

Unexpectedly, his persistence for many years became nothing but empty talk. Uchiha Heita's eyes lost their light instantly, and his black eyes glowed red. The speed of the three magatama's rotation gradually increased.

Uchiha Gin, who was unaware of all this, was still patting his head in regret. Finally, he sighed and said,
"It's okay. Since we've already built it, let's just treat it as an intelligence agency."

"really?"

Uchiha Heita, who was originally as hopeless as death, had his eyes lighted up again after hearing Uchiha Gin's words. He wiped the sore corners of his eyes and couldn't help but ask loudly,

"I guarantee it. Remember to get more dirt on the daimyo in the future. It might be very useful."

"Yes! Let's go tonight~"

After declining the invitation of Uchiha Heita and others to have dinner and drink tea, Uchiha Gin walked out of the alley alone. Looking at the spots of scarlet in the darkness behind him, he waved with a look of relief, and then left the stronghold without looking back.

After Uchiha Gin left, the noble Uchiha suddenly asked Uchiha Heita beside him,

"By the way, Heita, did you tell Lord Gin our contact information?"

"Of course. The first thing I did when I met Lord Yin was to give him the business card of our shop on Red Light Street."

Uchiha Heita nodded smugly, he is really as smart as me.

"Is that the kunoichi Muzan?"

"if not?"

The members of the Ghost Soldier Corps were too enthusiastic, and when Uchiha Gin came out, the moon had already quietly set.
The time to meet the three women was approaching, so he regretfully gave up the idea of ​​entering the red-light district to investigate and criticize, and turned to walk towards the hotel.

Arriving at the hotel that had been booked in advance, Uchiha Gin waited in the room for another hour before the three girls, carrying large and small bags, appeared with smiles on their faces.
"Don't you know how to use storage scrolls?"

Glancing at the Senju Itama carrying the hill, Uchiha Gin couldn't help but complain,

"Sorry, the storage scroll is also full."

Hearing Uchiha Gin's words, Uchiha Hikaru, who was sorting out the spoils, turned around and rolled his eyes in his dark beautiful eyes.

How good are these spendthrift women at selling themselves? They even filled up the storage scrolls. Uchiha Gin's heart was bleeding, but when he thought that they were all his, he could only grit his teeth and swallow it.

"Will you still go shopping tomorrow?"

Pressing his swollen temple, Uchiha Gin asked the three girls,

"No more shopping~"

The three girls shook their heads together, which slightly eased Uchiha Gin's grief, but Senju Itama's next words made his blood pressure soar.
"The whole street is empty, what's the point of shopping?"

"you!"

It turns out that it’s not that I don’t want to go shopping, but because the street is right on my back!

"We didn't meet you along the way. Didn't you go out for a walk, curly-haired baboon?"

Senju Itama, who had no psychological burden at all, looked at the skirt she had chosen with satisfaction, and then asked Uchiha Gin without even raising her head,

"I haven't been anywhere."

Because of the sudden appearance of the Demon Soldiers, Uchiha Gin's plan to become the top scholar failed, so he answered very naturally as he had accomplished nothing.

"No way? Don't you like exploring stores the most?"

The store exploration here is not about exploring flowers, but about exploring dessert shops.

"I've lost my appetite lately."

"Ah! Let me see if you are sick!"

Hearing that Uchiha Gin did not secretly go to the dessert shop, Senju Itama came over first, and used her petite body to rub against him, trying to get him to lower his head so as to check if he had a fever.

"I'm not sick. If I am, it's because you're mad at me."

With her powerful strength, she only pulled a few times and tore Uchiha Gin's clothes into a mess.
And the mysterious little card that accidentally entered his pocket finally saw the light of day again thanks to Senju Itama's unremitting efforts. It fell from his pocket and slowly floated to Uchiha Hikaru's feet.

Uchiha Hikaru, who was watching the Thousand Hands loser's useless work with a winner's smile, suddenly saw a card floating at his feet. He picked it up in confusion, and saw the four big characters "Female Ninja Muzan" on the back, and a bunch of gameplay introductions, and contact information and address below.

"Ayin!!!!"

"Huh? What's wrong?"

Uchiha Gin, who was a little confused by Senju Itama, looked at Uchiha Hikaru with confusion, whose face was getting darker and darker.
"Senior Guang, what happened?"

After sorting out his spoils, Uchiha Jiji also came over, stretched his head to look at the card in Uchiha Guang's hand, his originally cold face instantly turned red, his cold eyes were full of helplessness, glanced at Uchiha Yin, and said in an inexplicable tone,

"Mr. Yin, if you really need it, you can't go to a place like this. What if you get sick?"

The curious Senju Itama gave up harassing Uchiha Gin and ran over, standing on tiptoe to check what the secret was on the small card. It would have been fine if he hadn't looked at it, but as soon as he looked at it, he turned into a bubble teapot, with steam coming out of his forehead.
"Curly-haired baboon, you are really like a rabbit. You don't even eat grass near your nest."

"What are you talking about? Why can't I understand a word you say?"

Uchiha Gin spread out his hands, his expression as innocent as it could be.

"Where have you been today?"

His eyes were dyed with scarlet Uchiha light, staring coldly at Uchiha Gin, and questioned,

"I just walked around the street in front and didn't go anywhere else."

In order not to expose the matter of the Demon Soldier Corps, Uchiha Gin had to point to a street not far from the window without confirming whether that street was legitimate or not.

The three girls looked in the direction Uchiha Gin pointed. With better eyesight, they could clearly see three big characters:
【Red Light Street】

"Who introduced you there?"

Humph! For a place like that, it must have been introduced by someone I know.

"Huh? No one introduced me~"

Uchiha Gin's face was full of confusion. Does it mean that one needs an introducer to go shopping?

"Who gave you this card?"

Seeing that Uchiha Gin was still stubborn, Uchiha Hikaru, who was furious, raised the small card in his hand that exuded a mysterious aura and asked in a cold voice,
"That one you're talking about was forced upon me by my family."

Seeing the familiar card in the girl's hand, Uchiha Gin felt his pocket and found it empty. He immediately told the truth. Anyway, it was indeed given to him by a member of the Uchiha clan, so they were his family members.

"Good! Good! Good!"

Uchiha Guang, who was amused by Uchiha Gin's frankness, said the word "good" three times in a row. His gritting teeth look made the curly-haired man who didn't know the truth confused.

"Don't worry, I'll take you to see them when I get a chance. I guarantee you'll be surprised!"

As one of his closest people, Uchiha Gin naturally would not hide the affairs of the Land of Waves from Uchiha Hikaru for too long. It was only a matter of time before he knew the secrets of the Demon Soldier Corps.

"Huh! You're taking me with you, you shameless fellow!"

Uchiha Guang looked at the beyond-standard gameplay on the back of the card and trembled with anger. A red light flashed in her eyes and a cherry-red hatchet appeared in the void.

With the cooperation of the three women, Uchiha Gin, who had not yet figured out the situation, was quickly brought to justice.

His hands were clamped by Senju Itama's strange strength, his legs were tightly grasped by a pair of cherry-pink trees, and a cherry-red hatchet was hung above his head. In this desperate situation, Uchiha Gin, who felt wronged, protested loudly,
"Why do you treat me like this? I want to die knowing the truth!"

"Humph! You won't cry until you see the coffin. See for yourself!"

Unexpectedly, Uchiha Gin refused to admit his mistake even when he was about to die. The stagnant Uchiha Hikaru threw the small card directly at his feet.

"Oh Minos! I'm on morning eight!!!"

Looking at the ambiguous words on the card, Uchiha Gin felt disheartened. He didn't expect that Uchiha Heita would actually stuff such a card into his heart. What was his intention? Was there someone trying to ruin his reputation?

"What else do you have to say?"

Listening to Uchiha Gin's incompetent barking, Uchiha Hikaru, with a gloomy face, crossed his arms across his chest, like an impartial judge.
"I can explain!"

Facing the cold eyes of the three women, Uchiha Gin took a deep breath, looked at them with very sincere eyes, and tried to use the art of language to find a way to survive for himself.

"Haha, take your little card and explain it to our ancestors!"

Uchiha Hikaru, who was too lazy to listen to Uchiha Gin's excuses, controlled the hatchet and chopped it down fiercely. For this kind of ladybug, the root must be removed!

"Ah! Ah!! Ah!!! Master Qingtang, I am innocent!"

"Hmph~ I'll check your stock tonight. If even one drop is missing, you better plan how to die!"

"Oh~no!"

The wind tonight is a bit noisy, destined to be another sleepless night for Uchiha Gin. (End of this chapter)
