In Konoha, you call this a ninja tool?

But now his companions are dead, and even Hyde has perished at sea.

He has nowhere to go now.

If you don't listen properly.

Death was all that awaited him.

He was terrified of death.

"Well, I see."

Naruto nodded upon hearing Tenyu's words, as if he understood something.

Shikamaru watched this scene without saying a word.

In Shikamaru's opinion, Tengo had done the best he could.

He had absolutely no need to speak.

.........

After a period of rest, Tianyu and the others got up early the next morning.

"You're leaving already? It's rare for so many people from our caravan to come here. We're really a little reluctant to see you go," Uncle He Yan said with a kind smile.

Uncle He Yan had no idea what happened in the tent last night.

He also had no idea that the last remaining member of his clan would be separated from them today.

"All good things must come to an end. Thank you for your hospitality last night. As for the reward for this mission, let's forget about it. Let's just consider it as us being friends. If you ever come to Konoha to do business in the future, we would be very happy to welcome you."

Tianyu smiled and gave them the reward for this mission as a favor.

After all, if He Yan hadn't said those things...

It seems it will take some time before we can find a vein for the Garel Stone.

Moreover, this task is just a very simple D-level task to find items.

In the end, Naruto and Shikamaru only received 800 taels of silver as their reward.

Once they return to Konoha, Tengo will have Tsunade reimburse them for the money.

"Well, thank you very much then." Uncle He Yan did not refuse.

After all, paying less in fees would reduce their expenses.

After bidding farewell to the caravan, Tianyu and his companions followed the route provided by Uncle Heyan.

Tim was still being carried on Kisame Hoshigaki's shoulder as always.

His injury hasn't healed yet, and if he were to get out of bed and walk, it would probably take them three days and three nights to cover that short distance of 100 kilometers.

Shikamaru wrote down their current situation on a scroll and sent it back to Konoha via a summoning pigeon.

Early the next morning.

They then arrived at the canyon that Uncle He Yan had mentioned.

This canyon is indeed very deep and very dangerous.

The angles from both sides to the ground are almost perpendicular, forming a 90-degree right angle.

Above the canyon is a cliff, where there are no trees, meaning it is impossible to descend to the bottom of the canyon using any ropes.

Of course, this is for ordinary people. For ninjas, going down to the bottom of the cliff is no problem at all.

Even Naruto and the others were able to go down without getting hurt.

Moreover, this place is sparsely populated and does not belong to any of the five great powers.

Instead, it belongs to a region called Lunar Sleep.

This land was originally a fertile land, but it was destroyed by ninja attacks during the Third Shinobi World War.

Gradually, this place fell into disrepair.

No one lives here, so it has naturally become a desolate place.

"This should be the land that your clan once lived on."

Tianyu stood on the canyon road.

"Yes, that's it. I can feel the Garel Stone within me resonating with the energy here!"

Tim replied.

"Okay, let's go then. Shikamaru, you stay here and keep watch. If anything goes wrong, tell me immediately. If we encounter the enemy, don't fight them head-on. Use flanking tactics and try to buy them as much time as possible."

Tianyu gave the order.

"Yes, Lord Tenyu."

Shikamaru nodded.

Tengoku ordered Shikamaru to stay outside and keep watch.

After all, given Shikamaru's intelligence and strength, it would be most appropriate for him to stay outside.

The group easily reached the bottom of the canyon.

They found an underground cave leading to the ground in the most lush area of vegetation.

However, due to the impact of the war, most of this underground cave has collapsed.

The stairs were no longer usable, so they could only slowly descend along the collapsed stone fragments.

It's very dark down there.

But the closer Tim got to the bottom, the more he could feel the power coming from below, a faint sense of being summoned.

The group continued walking downhill.

We finally arrived underground, at an underground altar.

A bookshelf was placed in the center of the altar.

The walls are covered with murals, but some of them have fallen off due to their age.

However, the general content is still clearly visible.

The content here is roughly about how the people of this country discovered the Garel Stone veins, and how they used the Garel Stone to build their country and improve their lives!

However, the last scene in the mural depicts a great disaster that struck his country, causing heavy casualties among its people.

Even the Garrel Stone could not save the lives of the people.

Chapter 214 The Truth of That Year

Later, the royal family of this country led the remaining people away from this continent to find a new home overseas.

However, this also left behind many residents who originally belonged to this country.

These people, having lost their homeland and royal family, became vagrants.

Tim was stunned as he looked at the contents of the mural.

Because it is very similar to his past memories.

Similar murals also existed in his former home.

The royal family depicted in the murals looked much like the ancestors recorded in the family genealogy.

Could it be that...?

Could it be that he is a descendant of the royal family of this country?

"How about it? Isn't it unbelievable? After seeing this mural, I think you should already understand what kind of person Hyde is. He somehow got the news about the Garrel Stone, came to where you lived, killed your parents, took the memorabilia from you, and took you away to train you to be his most loyal subordinate."

"It's really quite sad to think about."

Tianyu looked at Tim and smiled.

Seeing these murals, Tim finally believed what Tianyu had said.

It turns out that the so-called Hyde was not a good person at all, and was actually his father's killer.

"And what about my villagers? How are they now? According to the murals, they should have been left on this continent."

Tim remembered the people in the murals.

Everyone on the big ship died, and Tim's companions were all gone too.

So now, all Tim can rely on is the remaining people of that country that is still on this continent.

If Tim can find them, he will at least have a place to settle down.

I won't end up as a homeless person.

"Since you've cooperated so well, I'll tell you. The caravan we were with before was made up of the remaining people from your country. They became wanderers because of the disappearance of their nation, and now they've become a caravan. After you help me obtain the Garel Stone mine, I'll give you a sum of money, about five million taels, so you can live a good life in this world. But as for your safety, I can't guarantee that. Konoha doesn't need people with mysterious identities like you."

Tianyu looked at Tim and said.

Thank you!

Five million taels of silver is a very large sum for them, enough to help them find a good place to settle down. Uncle He Yan is also a good person.

I believe he will accept Tim.

"polite!"

Tianyu smiled.

He then walked to the center of the altar and placed the book he had obtained on the bookshelf.

Soon, the sounds of machinery operating could be heard from all around.

At the center of the altar, a black void appeared.

After a while, an elevator appeared in front of everyone.

It seems they need to go deeper into the region to find the veins of the Garel Stone.

Tianyu was the first to step onto the elevator.
