"Benefits?"
Gasshi's expression became even more indifferent, and his eyes were filled with dense disdain.
"You are just a spy that Kirigakure planted in Konohagakure. What kind of benefits are you qualified to talk to me about?"
Gasshi shook his head.
As he said this.
He patted the ordinary ninja beside him.
"Let's go."
Gasshi turned to leave.
The moment he turned around, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen were filled with killing intent again. They were already tempted.
It had to be said.
During the conversation between the two of them.
There had been too many opportunities.
But they all maintained the ideas they had discussed with Aoba yesterday.
No one acted rashly.
They were all thinking about the big picture.
After all, they only had one goal: the Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu. As long as they got the Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu, they could return to the village and let Kirigakure develop vigorously.
"I can help you save Hari."
Rentaro stood where he was, a confident expression on his face. He said something that made Gasshi stop.
"What did you say?" Gasshi turned to look at Rentaro, his eyes flashing with doubt.
"I said..."
"I can save Hari!"
"Did you hear me clearly?"
The corners of Rentaro's mouth curled up in a confident smile. When he said this, the Seven Ninja Swordsmen lying in ambush on the side were suddenly moved.
Even they knew.
Such words were too impactful.
If they were Gasshi.
Even they couldn't help but stop.
They would definitely ask Rentaro.
This was a great killing weapon!
Only...
A huge question mark appeared in their hearts. Was Rentaro really confident in saving Hari?
"How are you going to save him?"
Gasshi seemed to be moved by Rentaro's words. He immediately stopped what he was doing and turned his head around again. He stared at Rentaro with a meaningful gaze. His eyes were filled with curiosity that could be seen with the naked eye.
Not only was Gasshi curious, but even the ninja beside Gasshi and the Seven Ninja Swordsmen hiding in the dark and waiting to ambush them were all very curious.
All of a sudden.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Rentaro. They wanted to know what Rentaro would say.
"Hahaha!"
Rentaro immediately raised his head and laughed. His laughter was full of ridicule and contempt. Anyone could see that Rentaro had the upper hand in terms of momentum.
"Gasshi-sama."
"Do you think I am a fool?"
"If I tell you now, then you will know what to do!"
"I will use the method of saving Hari to exchange for the Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu in your hands."
"This is not a loss to you at all!"
"Isn't your mission to rescue Hari who is locked up?"
Rentaro said one sentence after another. Rentaro had already gained the upper hand from the negotiation between the two and began to take the initiative.
Such a scene.
It immediately gave the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, who were hiding in the dark great confidence and strength.
They were very familiar with this part.
The night before.
This was how they were persuaded by Rentaro bit by bit.
Now it was Gasshi's turn.
"Are you playing tricks on me?"
Gasshi stared suspiciously at Rentaro in front of him. However, from his eyes, he could tell that he was thinking about this matter in his heart. It was obvious that he was very tempted.
"Gasshi-sama, your mission has not been completed if you return now. You can only use the Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu as compensation. But if you cooperate with me, you can become the hero of Kumogakure who saved Hari. I believe that it is not difficult for you to choose." Rentaro displayed an orderly and clear appearance.
"How can I believe you?" Gasshi frowned. It could be seen that he already had some confidence in his heart, but he did not completely believe it.
"You have no other choice. Whether you give it to me or not, your mission will be a failure when you go back." Rentaro shook his head and said. It was as if he had taken hold of Gasshi's lifeline. His whole body began to become more and more relaxed.
"You..."
Gasshi's aura instantly became less imposing than before, and he fell into deep thought.
A moment later.
Gasshi nodded.
"Then we will do as you say. You save Hari-sama for me, and I will give the Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu to you." Gasshi agreed with Rentaro and then said, "Now you can say how to save Hari-sama, right?"
The Seven Ninja Swordsmen, after hearing Gasshi's words, the serious expression on their faces eased up.
'Rentaro was too powerful!'
'With just a few words, he took down Gasshi.'
'As expected of the person they thought highly of.'
At this time.
The Seven Ninja Swordsmen became more confident in Rentaro.
In their eyes.
Satsuma Rentaro was like Kumogakure's Hari, who could play a decisive role in important events.
Speaking of how to save Hari, everyone's eyes became more curious.
"No!"
Right at this moment.
Rentaro still shook his head and rejected Gasshi's words.
Instantly.
Gasshi's face became gloomy.
"Are you playing with me?"
Gasshi's tone became even more manic. At the same time, he was also using his own words and emotions to express an obvious thing to the seven people.
He really wanted to save Hari.
Otherwise, he would not have said these words to Rentaro.
"I am not playing with you. I am avoiding you playing with me. Since we are making a deal, I need you to give the Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu to me."
Rentaro shook his head. There was almost no fluctuation in his expression. Facing Gasshi's angry roar, he showed no fear at all. He seemed to be arguing with reason.
"You are stronger than me. If I tell you the method, but you did not give me the Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu, I have no way of dealing with you."
"But on the contrary..."
"If you follow me, I will cooperate with you to save Hari. This way, even if I am playing with you, with your strength, you can snatch the Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu back in minutes and kill me at any time."
"I think my request is not too excessive!"
"I am doing this to prevent you from going back on your word and not giving me the Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu, or destroying the Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu."
Rentaro said in a deep voice. Everything he said was exactly as he had said to the Seven Ninja Swordsmen the night before.
Everything was based on the overall situation.
Everything was for the sake of Kirigakure!
When the Seven Ninja Swordsmen saw such a person who had been sent out by the village to be a spy standing in front of the powerful Gasshi and fought against him for the sake of the village's future.
This was a loyal man!
The Seven Ninja Swordsmen were all convinced by Rentaro's boldness.
"En..."
Gasshi seemed to be in deep thought. His eyes stared at Rentaro, and then the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. It seemed that he did not put Rentaro in his eyes at all.
"Come here."
"Come to my side."
"I'll give you the Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu."
"But you must go with me."
"I will release you after I save Hari-sama."
Gasshi waved at Rentaro. His attitude was undeniable. If Rentaro refused to go with him, he would never give the Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu.
As long as the Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu was still in Gasshi's hands.
Then there was the possibility of being destroyed.
"I got it."
Rentaro made a decision without hesitation. He walked towards Gasshi and slowly put his hands behind his back. He waved his hand at the seven people behind him, indicating that they should not act rashly.
This kind of signal was instantly caught by the seven people who had been watching them.
They were not fools.
He understood that if he were to snatch it now forcefully, there would be a risk of damage to the Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu.
However, if Rentaro managed to obtain the Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu.
Then everything would be another story.
Now, they were unsure if Rentaro really wanted to save Hari for Gasshi or use this as an excuse to snatch the Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu back.
In short...
All seven of them were ready to fight.
Suddenly.
Under the gaze of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen.
Rentaro slowly walked toward Gasshi step by step. Each step made their hearts more nervous.
"Hurry up, don't waste time. Konohagakure's ninjas will catch up soon." Gasshi immediately urged.
"I know."
Rentaro responded. He seemed to be affected by Gasshi's urging. He moved a little faster and walked directly to Gasshi.
Suddenly.
Gasshi raised his right hand.
He grabbed Rentaro's shoulder.
His big hand grabbed Rentaro tightly.
"Very good."
Gasshi seemed to think that Rentaro was very honest. He picked up the Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu with his left hand and stuffed it into Rentaro's arms.
"This is the Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu you want. If you can really save Hari, then you can take this scroll."
Gasshi said coldly. His eyes were fixed on Rentaro, and his tone was very cold. No one could tell whether he was really thinking this way or just saying it.
Beside Gasshi.
At the moment when Rentaro held the Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu with both hands.
His eyes shone brightly.
It was as if his entire body was burning.
He directly looked in the direction of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen.
These seven people hid very well and could not see their figures at all. However, Rentaro knew that they were there.
"Za Warudo!"
Rentaro suddenly roared. His voice was loud and echoed in the forest.
The moment he shouted.
He directly raised his hand and threw the Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu in the direction of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen.
It was very strong.
The Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu drew a beautiful parabola in the air and landed in the direction of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen.
Almost at the same time.
The Seven Ninja Swordsmen jumped out, and J?z? grabbed the Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu. When he saw this thick scroll, his eyes could not help but shine.
"Return to Kirigakure quickly!"
Rentaro suddenly roared, stopping the Seven Ninja Swordsmen. The moment they came out, they had a very tacit understanding.
J?z? was rushing toward the Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu.
The others were directly rushing toward Rentaro.
They planned to save Rentaro from Gasshi, but Rentaro stopped them.
"Do you want to fight?"
Gasshi's eyes flashed with a sharp light. He stood tall and straight on the spot, not taking Seven Ninja Swordsmen seriously at all. He could even fight at any time.
"Satsuma Rentaro, I knew you were a cunning person. I didn't expect you to have the Seven Ninja Swordsmen set up an ambush here. Do you, Kirigakure, want to make an enemy of us, Kumogakure? Do you think that you, Kirigakure, are ready to bear the anger of our Kumogakure?" Gasshi said coldly. His voice was very heavy, like a bell, ringing in the hearts of everyone.
"Gasshi-sama, why would I go back on my word? I said that I would help you save Hari, so I would definitely do it sooner or later. I handed the Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu over to J?z?-sama because I was afraid that you would go back on your word with me."
Rentaro said with a smile. Gasshi firmly held his shoulder, but there was no fear at all. His whole body was filled with a sense of righteousness.
"We, Kirigakure, have no intention of becoming enemies with Kumogakure."
"And according to the agreement we made earlier..."
"We, Kirigakure, will be the best ally of you, Kumogakure."
Speaking of this.
Rentaro stopped speaking, and his gaze fell on J?z?, who had already gotten the Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu not far from him.
"J?z?-sama, you can go back. We have achieved our goal. Now, I have to fulfill my personal promise. I want to help Gasshi-sama rescue the trapped Hari-sama. My decision has nothing to do with the village, so you don't need to worry about me."
Rentaro shook his head at the Seven Ninja Swordsmen and said a lot of generous words, directly stopping them.
"Then come with me!"
Gasshi's eyes flashed, and he grabbed Rentaro's shoulder, then picked up the ninja next to him.
Swish!
After that.
Gasshi's figure flashed and disappeared.
Only the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, who were standing in a daze, were left.
At this point.
The small play that Aoba had arranged for the seven of them had already been played.
After Aoba's three advanced paper clones quickly left, in a place where no one was paying attention, three "bang" instantly rang out. They carried the information that had happened here and returned it to Aoba's body.
From then on.
In this world.
There was no Gasshi.
There was no Rentaro.
Their departure was only to leave such an impression on the Seven Ninja Swordsmen.
...
In the woods.
In J?z?'s hand was the Scroll of Water Release Ninjutsu, who Rentaro threw over, and he fell silent.
A moment later.
J?z? took a deep breath.
His mood was extremely complicated.
The other six people among the Seven Ninja Swordsmen were also in an extremely complicated mood.
At this moment, none of them spoke.
"Weren't we too cowardly just now?"
J?z? thought for a moment and said it. He raised his eyes and looked at the place where Rentaro disappeared, and a vexed expression appeared on his face.
"Rentaro did so much for Kirigakure, but we watched helplessly as Rentaro was taken away by Gasshi. We didn't save him at all..."
"If something happened to Rentaro."
"I will never forgive myself!"
J?z? said in frustration. He was a person who valued relationships, especially those who he recognized.
He had only interacted with Rentaro twice.
But in his heart, he had completely recognized Rentaro.
He felt that Rentaro was the kind of person who could revitalize Kirigakure.
"J?z?..."
Suikazan Fuguki looked at J?z? and nodded. The expression on his face was also very ugly.
"I understand your feelings."
"My mood is no different from yours."
"But I calmed down just now."
"I think Rentaro is right."
"If he really has a way to rescue Hari, then he will be Hari's savior if he follows Gasshi."
"I think that with Rentaro's wisdom, he should have thought of what will happen next."
As Suikazan Fuguki said this. He did not know why, but he, who had always been impulsive, calmed down at this moment. He carefully thought about what Rentaro had done and came to this conclusion.
"What you said makes sense!"
J?z? suddenly swept away the haze and stared at Suikazan Fuguki beside him with wide eyes.
"You can even tell this!"
"In that case..."
"Rentaro has already seen the next step!"
"This is to pave the way for the relationship between Kumogakure and Kirigakure!"
J?z?'s mood instantly improved. He immediately understood that Rentaro had already seen the third level.
