Naruto: The Uchiha Calabash Brothers are reshaping the ninja world

Chapter 24 Arriving at the Black Market, Identifying the Murderer

After crossing the Land of Rain and entering the Land of Birds, the air became drier, but Uchiha Mo didn't have time to notice these subtle changes.

He rushed headlong toward his destination, because Terada Yusuke's planned route deliberately avoided the black market, so even the nearest large black market would take Su a considerable amount of time to make a round trip.

Moreover, if the murderer deliberately erased the traces, he might need to investigate several more targets before making any discoveries. Therefore, even if he only needs to rejoin the team before they return to Konoha, Mo must complete the investigation as soon as possible.

The wind whistled past my ears, the moon slowly descended from the sky, and a ray of dawn scattered from the east...

……

"despair……"

A clear footstep echoed through the empty, desolate underground black market, and a young man wearing a high-necked black robe with the Uchiha clan crest on his back appeared.

Without any burdens, Mo unleashed his full speed and arrived at his destination in the latter half of the night. However, he rested for about two hours before taking action again, just to ensure his condition was good.

The black market is located underground, and large black markets usually have gold exchange offices.

Mo walked through the dark corridor, and after pushing open a wooden door, the view in front of him suddenly opened up.

A strong, pungent stench suddenly assaulted his nostrils. Mo frowned slightly and looked to the side. Large patches of blood scabs on the walls had dried and turned blackish-red over time. The floor was littered with mangled corpses, and the entire hall was filled with broken wounds and craters caused by the explosion.

"It seems no one in the Bird Kingdom dares to come and clean it up, but that saves me a lot of trouble."

Mo mobilized the chakra within his body, and his eyes turned crimson.

There was no trace of chakra in sight, as a considerable amount of time had passed. Mo Weiwei walked forward to the front of a pit, squatted down, looked at the bottom of the pit, and picked up a handful of soil, rubbing it a couple of times.

"The soil is very brittle, as if it had been burned. There are signs of carbonization at the bottom of the pit, which was caused by fire-style techniques."

Immediately afterwards, Mo stood up, glanced at the scratches on the wall, and then went to a corpse leaning against the wall.

Mo's eyes flickered slightly as he looked at the severed area of ​​the headless corpse. Apart from the neck, there were many cut marks on other parts of the corpse. Mo then compared these marks with the scratches on the wall.

"The art of wind cutting."

In the next quarter of an hour, Mo discovered penetrating, charred wounds from lightning techniques on several more corpses.

After inspecting the main hall, Mo moved through a small door on the right and entered the inner room. This was usually where customers and merchants negotiated and finalized their deals, including exchanging bounties.

This place was much better preserved than the main hall, but as soon as Mo stepped in, he saw a row of sharp earth spikes of varying heights, with a terrified corpse hanging from the top of the tallest spike.

"The earthen pillar exploded..."

In this one black market alone, the murderer displayed all the abilities of the five elemental ninjutsu except for water ninjutsu, and judging from the power of the ninjutsu, the murderer can be considered a master.

In this way, the killer's identity becomes quite clear.

In this timeline, besides the Third Hokage, Nagato, and Kakuzu, the only other ninja in the original work who are clearly proficient in more than four types of ninjutsu is...

While there are ninjas like Orochimaru who are proficient in all five elemental ninjutsu, most of them are only skilled in one or two of them, and their fighting style is not primarily based on multi-elemental ninjutsu.

Just as Mo had finalized his target, footsteps suddenly echoed from the outer hall.

"!"

The moment Mo heard the sound, he immediately shut down his Sharingan, then lowered his aura to a minimum, and with a flick of his body, disappeared into the environment like glass falling into water.

He turned around, not moving rashly, but narrowing his eyes slightly, his vision instantly passing through the wooden door and walls, landing in the hall.

  

Inside the underground black market hall.

A man wearing a straw hat and a long, brown robe to conceal his figure was looking around furtively as he made his way toward the inner room where Uchiha Mo was.

Mo focused his attention slightly, and his vision immediately pierced through the concealment of the bamboo hat and long robe to see the person's appearance clearly.

This was a burly middle-aged man with a centipede-like scar on his face that ran from his left lip across his entire face to the corner of his right eye.

With just one glance, Mo could tell from the way the person walked and the frequency of their breathing that this was an ordinary person.

Seeing that it was getting closer and closer, Mo did not make any rash moves. Instead, he gathered his chakra in his feet and leaped upside down, hanging from the ceiling.

Although the killer's identity has been largely confirmed, the reasons behind it remain shrouded in mystery, so Mo needs more information. And at a time when even the ministers of the Bird Kingdom dare not approach, an ordinary person has dared to take the initiative to do so, which suggests a connection to the matter.

"Squeak~"

The wooden door slowly opened, and the person quickly went into the room and then closed the door.

"There's still hope!"

He muttered something to himself, then leaped behind the counter. After fiddling with it for a while, the counter suddenly slid open with a clicking sound. The man crouched down, gently pressed something on the exposed floor, and then pried something to the left. The floor instantly trembled.

"Sasasa~"

Before long, the wall behind the counter was moved aside, revealing a secret passage.

The man stood up and was about to enter through the secret passage when a gentle breeze suddenly came from behind him, followed by the sound of his feet landing.

"despair……"

His body stiffened, and he immediately raised his hands, saying in a terrified voice:

"Sir! I just came back to get some things. I'm not a black market dealer, and what happened before has nothing to do with me!" He raised his hands high, his voice trembling slightly but his speech was extremely fast, showing his strong desire to survive.

Turn around.

Mo said something in a low voice. After he finished speaking, the man in front of him suddenly froze for a moment, and then his whole body stopped trembling.

Mo watched this scene quietly, and began to count down in his mind.

"3..."

"2"

"1..."

"That wretched brat! How dare he impersonate Kakuzu, ruining my life..."

The man suddenly drew his knife and turned around, his fleshy face trembling violently, his expression fierce.

However, before he could even draw his longsword, a pair of scarlet eyes entered his field of vision.

Genjutsu: Sharingan!

The man's eyes widened suddenly, his pupils contracted sharply, and he froze on the spot.

"Ding-dong—"

The long sword clashed to the ground with a crisp sound, but Mo didn't even glance at it. Instead, he looked at the man and slowly asked, "Who are you? What are you doing back here? Why is Horn targeting the black market of the Bird Kingdom?"
