Naruto: The Infinite New World

End of Chapter 38

"It's finally over." Jin sighed and plopped down on the ground.

He suffered a huge loss in this battle.

The main problem is that less than one-fifth of the chakra he had accumulated over so many years was left.

You could say we lost a fortune.

He also realized the gap between himself and a Jonin. The opponent's battles were all interconnected, with various tactics. If he made a single mistake, he would be dead without a powerful ability to turn the tide.

Jin is not yet able to replicate this combat method.

These are all things that have been honed little by little through experience.

Experience is something that even a cheat code can't predict.

It's really upsetting.

Why are we seeing Iwa ninja here?

Kushina didn't understand.

"They must have infiltrated to do something."

Jin looked at the Jonin in front of him, whose body was charred black, and who was still standing there motionless.

I'll go up and search to see if there's anything useful.

"Wait, Jiraiya-sensei said not to touch corpses."

Minato Namikaze issued a warning.

"Don't worry." Jin waved his hand: "With things like this, he won't be able to hide the explosive tags, nor will he have time to set up traps."

He values his life very much.

If it weren't for the certainty that there was no danger, the shadow clone would definitely have gone first to scout ahead.

He slashed at Zhongtang's body with a knife, but found nothing useful except for a few red-hot ninja tools.

but.

"This guy must be the culprit that Kushina wants to defeat."

Jin took the knife and flipped the ninja tool over. If it cooled down, it would still be usable.

However, he was somewhat disgusted by these ninja tools.

"What?" Kushina ran over and looked Nakado up and down.

"Is it them?"

The village they passed through on their way to the outpost was completely wiped out, with both people and livestock extinct.

Only one little girl survived.

These three almost had a falling out.

Kushina is still somewhat resentful towards Kim.

Minato Namikaze stood silently to the side, lost in thought about the details.

"But what about the things they took?"

Kushina looked puzzled. When Kin investigated, he said that all the village's valuables had been taken.

Kushina, the girl, wasn't searched at all, and Minato Namikaze didn't even consider searching the body.

But it didn't look like there was any valuables.

"You'll have to ask the village chief here."

Finance doesn't grow legs and run away.

Jin smiled, but there was no hint of a smile in his crimson Sharingan.

He's a champion of fairness.

Anyone who wrongs him, whether you're a ninja or an ordinary person, will pay the price.

Even if it's the Hokage, let's talk about it when he's strong enough to beat him.

The village chief sat up in bed and looked at the dim light coming through the window; he knew it was almost dawn.

He didn't sleep well that night.

I walked to the table, poured myself a cup of tea, and just as I brought the cup to my lips...

"You still have the mind to drink tea?"

A voice suddenly came.

He spat out all the tea in his mouth with a "pfft".

They hurriedly lit the oil lamp.

The light illuminated the three extra people in the room.

Jin stood at the door with his arms crossed, watching him. Kushina hung upside down from the roof beam, and Minato Namikaze stood at the window, blocking his escape route.

"What brings you three ninjas so late at night?"

The village chief forced a smile.

But seeing the three ninjas' expressionless faces, he couldn't laugh anymore.

They don't seem to have any good intentions.

"My lords, if you wish to acquire wealth, our village is not wealthy, but we will do our best to collect it for you."

"The village chief said in a panic."

His trembling eyes resembled those of a commoner forced to hand over money by ninjas.

"Still pretending?"

Jin gave a cold laugh.

Even Kushina was persuaded, but Minato Namikaze and Kin Uchiha remained unmoved.

Kushina is the type of person who will truly believe you if you're pitiful enough.

Minato Namikaze is not careless about important matters.

"You're the one who leaked our whereabouts to the Iwa ninja, aren't you?"

Jin didn't try to hide anything and directly questioned him.

"Your Honor, I've been wronged! I know nothing!"

The village chief knelt on the ground, weeping bitterly, his head banging against the ground repeatedly, looking utterly innocent.

"What Iwa ninja? I've never even seen one before."

The village chief wailed.

Jin walked up to the village chief, squatted down, and began to speak slowly.

"I was very confused from the beginning. Why were you always there, even though you were in such a crucial position?"

"Because of that."

"Don't try to fob me off with those excuses."

Jin interrupted the village chief.

"Ninjas don't care whether you live or die, you should understand that."

In the wars of the ninja world, it is always the civilians who suffer the most, a sin that the ninjas cannot erase.

The fact that ninjas, who were few in number during the Warring States period, accounted for half the death rate of ordinary people shows what ordinary people meant to ninjas.

This argument remains unchanged even now.

Ninjas don't care about the lives of civilians in their battles.

"For a village to survive here, the ninjas must have certain requirements for this place. Since you can't provide ninjutsu or money, you can only provide intelligence."

"Among the five great ninja villages, Konoha is the best to its own people, so under normal circumstances, Konoha will not drive away or exterminate the villagers of the Land of Fire, thus providing you with the foundation to stay."

"Based on this, how could Takigakure, Kusagakure, or even Iwagakure possibly let you go?"

At such a crucial point, other ninja villages naturally had no reason to leave them behind.

Whoever occupies this place will have the advantage of taking the initiative. However, they may not be able to withstand Konoha's counterattack, but it is still better than giving it to someone else.

"There's only one way to get them to let you go."

Jin's face darkened.

"Leaking information about Konoha ninjas."

"Your enthusiasm stems from your desire to contact ninjas, learn more information, and then sell it to people in other ninja villages."

"The so-called wandering ninjas you speak of are actually people who are dissatisfied with the other party's offer. You use this to attract Konoha scouts as a threat to coerce them into offering a higher price."

With Jin's explanation, Kushina also figured out the details.

"The main reason those Iwa ninja attacked the village was because they didn't have enough money, so they raided several other villages instead!"

"After they had enough money, you handed over our whereabouts to the Iwa ninja as soon as possible."

Minato Namikaze will be added later.

As for what other information the other party traded, that was beyond the ability of the three Jins to deduce.

This village directly sells information about Konoha ninjas at a fixed price.

In order to amass wealth, they also swindled several nearby villages.

After Jin's analysis, the village chief resigned himself to his fate.

"We just want to live! What's wrong with that!" the village chief roared.

"This is our home. Why should you ninjas be allowed to destroy it with impunity? If you can destroy our home, why can't we use you to save our lives?"

This left Jin speechless, and as for relocating the village, that was impossible.

The Daimyo Prefecture issued a law called the Land Law, which requires commoners to protect the land given to them by the Land of Fire.

They are not allowed to leave without permission.

This regulation had some connection to the early days of the ninja village. Jin estimated that it was initially intended to restrict ninjas, but unfortunately, it failed to do so.

Ultimately, this limited the chances of survival for all civilians on the battlefield.

"Then you shouldn't have let the Iwa ninja harm other villages," Kushina rebuked angrily.

She still has nightmares about the terrible state of that village.

"We just want to survive," the village chief repeated, bowing his head.

At least he felt guilty towards the villages that died at the hands of ninjas.

"Unfortunately, you won't survive."

Jin shook his head and sighed. Although he wanted to get revenge, these people were, in a way, forced into this situation.

He wouldn't stoop to arguing with a bunch of dead people.

"What do you mean?"

The village chief raised his head, his face contorted with rage, his eyes bloodshot.

"Do you really think betraying Konoha will go unpunished?"

Jin shook his head and sighed.

Glancing at the somber faces of Minato and Kushina, the two understood what fate awaited this village.

"Leave the others alone; come at me for everything!"

The village chief hurriedly tried to grab Jin, but Jin kicked him in the face, sending him crashing into the wall.

"You can't handle it."

Jin shook his head, opened the door, and looked outside.

"They've arrived by now."

Before they arrived in the village, they had Minato Namikaze send the message back using reverse spirit communication.

The sun peeked over the mountains.

A sliver of light illuminated the woods on the edge of the village.

Ninjas dressed in green vests stood on tree branches, looking down over the entire village.

A woman with patterned features, crouching on a black wolfhound, licked her black fingernails with her tongue.

"Leave no one alive!"

"kill!"

The massacre began.

The newly appointed sentry post in Konoha.

In a secluded jungle.

Jin was inside the mission tent, taking out rolls one by one.

"King, what are you doing?" Minato Namikaze asked, looking puzzled.

"Of course, it's to exchange for battle merits."

Jin pushed the scrolls to the recording staff. He was a little dumbfounded when he saw the scrolls. There weren't many scrolls, but they were all newly created ninjutsu.

But this is a frontline outpost, not the village's ninjutsu research lab.

How do I earn battle merits here?

"Can't we exchange it?"

Jin asked the staff out of curiosity.

"Yes, but it needs to be sent back to the village first so that the villagers can rate it."

The staff member forced a smile. He had seen many people exchange bloody heads for battle merits, but this was the first time he had seen someone exchange ninjutsu for them. The key point was that villages could be exchanged.

outrageous.

Minato Namikaze stood by, dumbfounded, his eyes filled with envy at the sheer number of ninjutsu techniques he saw.

"These are all useless. If you want to learn, I have a catalog where you can choose whatever you like."

Jin said nonchalantly.

In reality, he didn't need these ninjutsu; he planned to exchange them for battle merits and then for other things.

At the same time, we'll see if the researchers are transferred to the rear, and they'll have to hold onto their position as geniuses in ninjutsu research.

It can be said to be a win-win-win situation.

Of course, it might be a bit difficult to move back to the rear.

"How is Kushina?"

"She hasn't recovered from that day yet, and even after being appointed a Chunin, she wasn't in the mood."

Jin sighed.

That night was indeed a huge shock for Kushina.

Also, because of the reason they killed the Jonin.

He was also honorably promoted to Chunin.
