Scavenging in the Cloud Village

The view shifted, Kanami instantly entered the Cloud Village.

"This is?"

He looked at the ruins before him; where was the Cloud Village?

"How did Cloud Village get wiped out??"

Kanami found it strange.

The fact that news of the annihilation of Cloud Village has not yet spread throughout the Shinobi World makes him even more puzzled.

It's been three days already.

The only possibility is that the village was wiped out in an instant, and no one had time to react, resulting in no one being able to pass on the message.

"It was probably one of those villages that was wiped out in the last few days."

Soon, Kanami arrived at the several Chakra fluctuations he had sensed earlier.

He immediately spotted one or two people scavenging for things among the ruins.

"Hey, what's going on here?"

Kanami suddenly spoke up behind them, startling the two of them.

They quickly turned around and saw that it was a boy, and breathed a sigh of relief.

"I was so scared! I thought that guy had come back."

That guy?

Kanami asked, "Which guy are you talking about?"

The two men looked Kanami up and down.

His clothes were so clean that he was clearly not a villager from Cloud Village.

Maybe they came from somewhere nearby and saw what was happening in Cloud Village and came to join in the fun.

A man waved his hand impatiently. "Go away, what's a kid doing here?"

He then began groping around in the ruins, trying to find something.

At this moment, the other man turned his head and sighed.

"We don't know who that guy was, but he just flew in from the sky, and then a Meteorite fell, and then Cloud Village was destroyed. So we suspect that person was the one who wiped out our Cloud Village."

"Hey, why are you telling this to a kid? You'd be better off spending that time rummaging through the ruins; you might find something valuable that would make our later years more comfortable."

"Tell me, what if one of them really comes back and we both get killed? Then no one will know the truth about the destruction of Cloud Village."

"Pah! Crow! Don't talk nonsense! Sometimes, what you say casually really does come true!"

Upon hearing this, Kanami rested his chin on one hand in thought.

That guy flew over. Who else in the Shinobi World besides Madara Uchiha around now?

Moreover, this person claimed that a falling Meteorite destroyed the village.

The Meteorite is most likely the power of the Rinnegan, the Heavenly Transfer Celestial Star.

"Oh, by the way, if you don't mind getting your clothes dirty, you can pick up things here. Anyway, the person is dead, and all the good stuff has been buried. Any money or valuables you find are yours. Don't just stand there."

The man who was searching through the ruins reminded Kanami.

Kanami smiled. "Thanks, but I have other things to do, so I'll skip looking for these things."

The first man, while rummaging through the ruins, said disdainfully, "Why are you telling him all this? Those bastards from Iwagakure have looted almost everything from our village. We already had little hope, and now he's adding to the spoils!"

"Besides, look at his smart clothes, he must be some young master from a wealthy family, why would he be picking up trash!"

That's just how he is, a smart aleck, don't mind him, he doesn't really have any bad intentions.

The second man scratched his head and laughed as he explained for the first man.

Kanami shook his head. "It's alright, I really have something to do, otherwise I might have been able to pick up some scraps."

After saying that, he thought for a moment and began circulating his Chakra.

"Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!"

A strong gust of wind blew up, instantly sending all the collapsed boulders and logs flying from the ruins.

Kanami intentionally controlled the situation, preventing the land from being blown away along with the land.

"Boom--"

The boulders and logs that had been blown away flew dozens of meters before crashing heavily to the ground.

"Holy crap! Is that guy back again?! Play dead!"

The first man who was struggling to move the heavy object suddenly changed his expression, dove into a small hole in the ruins, buried his head in it, and pretended to be dead.

He waited a few seconds but the second man didn't make any move.

"What are you doing! Get down now!"

He reached out and tugged at the man's trouser leg.

The second man then realized what was happening, "Hey, get up! It's not that guy who's back, it's..."

"And what?"

"Gulp."

The second man swallowed hard. "That boy just used a Wind Release technique to destroy all the heavy objects in front of us!"

"What?"

The first man slowly poked his head out, and when he saw the empty scene before him, his eyes widened in shock.

He suddenly stood up!

"Holy crap! You're saying this was caused by that kid's Wind Release Ninjutsu?!"

"Yes! I saw it with my own eyes!"

"Holy crap, how much power does that take to blow away an object tens of meters tall! And it even preserved part of the ground, preventing other things inside the house from being blown away!"

"This young man! He's a good person!"

The first man was very excited.

Now they don't need to carry heavy objects anymore. It used to take them about ten minutes to search a house, but because they couldn't carry the heavy things, they were only Genin, and barely managing to get through.

They don't know any Earth Release is a type of magic or magic), otherwise it would be easier for them.

"You used to look down on others..."

"That was then, now is now! Don't judge a book by its cover! I naturally have to thank this young man for what he did!"

"This will save us so much time!"

"Alright, let's not waste any more time, let's find something relaxing over here!"

The first man, full of energy and determination, rushed over and began searching.

The second man scratched his head. "But he looks a lot like someone else..."

"Someone? When did you learn to be so friendly? You're not going to say he's the son of your eight aunts, two uncles, three aunts, or so on, are you?"

The first man looked at him with disdain.

The second man shook his head. "No, don't you think his red hair looks a lot like that legendary boy...?"

The first man was momentarily stunned!

You mean him?!

His face instantly turned several shades paler.

"Impossible! How could it be him? Legend has it he's bloodthirsty! Wherever he goes, he kills. The entire Shinobi World isn't enough for him to kill. He's the number one Red-Haired Demon in the Shinobi World!"

"If it were him, how could we still be alive!"

The second man nodded upon hearing this. "That's true, he's not quite like the legends. But do you know how he left?"

"How else can you get a divorce? You just have to walk away, of course."

"No, he flew away!"

"What?!"

"It flew away!"

The first man's eyes widened!

"Isn't that the same ability as that guy's? Flight!"

"Could it really be the legendary Red-Haired Demon?!"
