The truth behind Killer B's disappearance

Killer B up and met the gaze of the Shinki through his Sunglasses.

Even severely injured, this guy still managed to strike a rap pose. "Yo yo, this is Lord Killer B! I almost didn't make it back to life, thank you all, my Benefactor! skr~"

Shinki:(||๐_๐)

"You're injured like this, and you still have the mind to sing!"

Killer B his head, somewhat ashamed. "Rap is my dream, I can't give it up easily! ୧⍢⃝୨"

He then asked, "Did my Older Brother ask you to rescue me? It seems there are still many good people in Konoha after all...꒦ິ^꒦ິ"

Kamiki nodded. "You could say that. Your brother, the Raikage, thinks that your disappearance is because Sasuke from Konoha Village angered him so much that if they don't find you, Kumogakure might even start a war with Konoha... ┐(´-`)┌"

Killer B felt even more ashamed after hearing Shinki's words. "Older Brother, you're foolish! Konoha is my Benefactor, how could you speak ill of your Benefactor! Ծ‸ Ծ"

Upon hearing this, Shinki immediately perked up. "Tell me in detail what you've been through these past few days? Was Sasuke really the one who attacked you...?"

However, before Shinki could finish speaking, Killer B gasped, "Hiss~".

Shinki was intelligent and naturally understood the meaning Killer B's actions.

Medical Chakra appeared in his palm, and he began to treat Killer B's injuries.

After receiving treatment at Shinki, Killer B's complexion improved significantly.

Afterwards, Killer B asked the Shinki for some dry rations. While chewing on the rations, he recounted the events of the day. "Yo yo~ It was a sunny afternoon. I was singing and dancing in front of my house, and my dazzling dance moves attracted..."

Shinki:(ー_ー)!!

"Let's skip the rap at a time like this and get to the point! (ꐦ ಠ 皿ಠ)"

Killer B wasn't annoyed. He cleared his throat and continued, "Then I was attacked by the Masked Man... That guy was incredibly strong. He beat me and Aba back and forth, and we almost lost our lives! (｡•ˇ‸ˇ•｡)"

Just then, Sasuke, dressed in Akatsuki attire, arrived with several young men. He didn't explain why, but simply said he wanted to fight the Masked Man alongside me.

"Afterwards, seeing that I was seriously injured, he offered to cover our retreat. I used a Hiding Technique to hide myself underwater and swam here with the River to evade the rest of the Akatsuki..."

"So, Sasuke not only didn't attack you, but actually saved you?" Shinki asked.

Killer B nodded. "That's right! That kid's strength has grown a lot, much stronger than when we first met. That Amaterasu Black Flame, even I was shocked! (^ワ^)"

"Speaking of which, shouldn't you be with him? Where's that kid? I want to thank him in person! (๑`･ᴗ･´๑)"

Shinki shook his head upon hearing this. "He's disappeared. I can't find him."

"They must have been taken away by that Masked Man. I take responsibility for this. I'll ask Kumogakure to help you find them..." Killer B stood up and patted Shinki on the shoulder.

"Alright, let's go back to Kumogakure now. As long as I'm gone, the relationship between Kumogakure and Konoha remains strained..."

Shinki nodded, grabbed Killer B, and teleported away using the Flying Thunder God!

Raikage's Office.

Several high-ranking officials were still discussing Killer B's matter.

"Even with the Red-Haired Kid from Konoha here, Killer B is probably in grave danger this time..."

"Kumogakure has lost a Tailed Beast!"

"Are we going to declare war on Konoha?! ヽ('⌒´メ)ノ"

"Calm down, we still can't determine who the real killer is, can we?"

"What's there to be sure about? It must have Sasuke that bastard Sasuke who did it! Or maybe it's all a conspiracy orchestrated by Konoha against my Kumogakure! Aimed at weakening our village's strength! (▼ヘ▼#)"

"In my opinion, we should fight!!"

"Don't get excited, don't get excited. Konoha is currently led by the Red-Haired Shinki, and has Chakra Technology that surpasses other Ninja Villages. If we rashly declare war, it might be disadvantageous for us! ▼_▼"

"That makes sense. But are we really going to suffer this humiliation and swallow our pride? (╯^╰)"

"That's obviously not going to work either. Kumogakure is one of the Five Great Shinobi Villages. For the past twenty years, we've always been the ones bullying others, never the other way around! (′д`σ)σ"

"That's not entirely true. Last time we Jonin group to assassinate Shinki, we already got thrashed by that kid once... ¯_(ツ)_/¯"

"What do you mean? Are you deliberately trying to sabotage me?! (*Ӧ)σ"

Just as the high-ranking members of Kumogakure were having a heated discussion, Shinki suddenly appeared with Killer B: "Yo, what are you talking about? It's so lively."

Dear senior executives: (꒪⌓꒪),∑(✘Д✘๑), (Ő∀Ő)

The situation became extremely awkward!

After all, these people were just discussing how to attack Konoha, or how to take this opportunity to extort a large sum of money from Konoha...

The next second, the Shinki Konoha elder appeared.

One of the higher-ups was the first to react, looking at Killer B with concern. "Beetle! What happened? Where have you been these past few days!"

Killer B his head and gave a brief account of what he had seen and heard over the past few days.

Upon hearing this, the senior executives became even more embarrassed!

"I see... It seems we have to thank Sasuke of Konoha this time..." a high-ranking official said somewhat guiltily.

Shinki could roughly guess what the group had just been discussing, and he felt slightly displeased, especially considering Kumogakure's preemptive and assertive attitude when the incident occurred...

He's reasonable, but that doesn't mean he'll suffer a loss!

Now that we're in the right, we definitely can't let those old guys from Kumogakure get away with it!

"Whoosh!"

Shinki plopped down in the empty head seat, then arrogantly propped his legs up on the conference table!

His sharp gaze swept over the assembled executives. "What?! You think you can just send me away with a thank you?! (ꐦ ಠ 皿ಠ)"

"You Kumogakure aren't going to hold Konoha accountable?!"

An elder, sensing the Yakumi in Shinki's tone, smiled obsequiously and said, "Mr. Shinki, what are you saying? Konoha is an ally of Kumogakure, and you are a benefactor to Kumogakure. How could we dare to question you... (ꈍᴗꈍ)"

"Snort!"

Shinki continued, "You said you wouldn't dare, but you actually did it!"

"If Kumogakure doesn't give me an explanation, this isn't over! ╰_╯"

After hearing Shinki's words, the senior executives all began to feel troubled.

With this guy's strength, if he were to cause trouble in Kumogakure, it seems they really wouldn't have a way to deal with him...

A relatively junior executive whispered, "How about... we pay fifty million in compensation?"

No sooner had he finished speaking Elder beside him slapped him across the face!

"Fifty million? That's not even enough for Mr. Shinki's appearance fee! (ꐦ°᷄д°᷅)"

After the performance, the Elder approached the Shinki with a smile and held up two fingers...
