Fat Sheep! Tastes Awful!
"Fat sheep!"
When Ko-Saburō called out to Koji, Kōji Kojiro and Toba turned around at the same time, and the words "easy prey" popped into their minds simultaneously.
The purpose of Amegakure sending people to Takumigakure is no different from that of other ninja villages: first, to purchase ninja tools produced by Takumigakure, and second, to gather intelligence.
The entire Shinobi World is now focused on the war between Konoha and Sunagakure. The turbulent Shinobi World is engulfed in flames of war, and each ninja village has to make multiple preparations.
The reason why these three Rain Ninja were targeting Miya was mainly because he was too deceptive in his current state. Without using the Transformation Technique, Miya appeared to others as someone swaggering around with a box of money.
It would be strange if someone with even a slightly malicious heart didn't get tempted.
Sensing three malicious gazes, Miya didn't react much, maintaining his innocent and cheerful demeanor.
"That box... it's filled with money, isn't it?"
Ko-Saburō's tone was uncertain, but the greed in his eyes was unmistakable.
Even if it's not money, it's definitely worth a lot of money.
The greed in Toba's eyes intensified as he stared intently at Miya.
"Then let's just rob it and see what happens."
In the end, Kōji made the decision to take the box from Miya's hands first.
Of course, the Rain Ninja in Takumigakure aren't just targeting Miya and her two companions; there are other Rain Ninja carrying out other missions within the Takumigakure.
The team consisting of Rain Ninja Kōji, Ko-Saburō, and Toba was primarily tasked with monitoring and gathering intelligence on other ninja Takumigakure.
However, upon seeing Miya alone, they began to harbor wicked intentions.
Tasks can be done anytime.
Moreover, this mission is relatively lenient, so it's not unreasonable to take advantage of the situation a little.
Isn't that excessive???
"Keep up."
Seeing Miya walking further and further away, the three of them immediately followed.
"Oh..."
Miya, who was walking in front, noticed the three tails behind him. He remained outwardly calm, but inwardly he was sneering.
The three Rain Ninja who had been following Miya noticed that his direction of Miya was becoming increasingly remote and that there were fewer and fewer pedestrians. Their eyes gleamed with greed.
Greed made them forget the warnings of the ninja code.
Never underestimate any ninja.
When you discover an opportunity, be careful that it may be a trap set by your target.
Clearly, greed had clouded the judgment of the three men.
In a corner southeast of Takumigakure, where pedestrians were becoming less frequent, Miya's figure stopped in a small alley.
"Come out! Aren't you tired of following me all this way?"
Turning around, Miya stared at the entrance of the alley.
Throughout their journey, Miya had harbored no ill intentions whatsoever; he simply wanted to help the three Rain Ninja who had followed him all the way...
They killed him.
That's all!
Outside the alley, the three Rain Ninja were startled when they heard Miya's voice and exchanged bewildered glances.
"We've been discovered!"
A sense of foreboding arose in all three of them at the same time, but then they thought that Miya was just a little kid, how strong could he be?
Moreover, they have three people, giving them a significant numerical advantage.
"Kill him, take the loot, and run."
Toba's eyes narrowed, and he spoke in a deep voice.
"Good."
"Kill..."
Ko-Saburō and Kōji spoke at the same time, and before their words had even finished, the three of them, wielding Kunai, simultaneously attacked Miya.
"You bluffing brat."
Kōji, leading the charge, had a clearly visible ferocious expression on his face.
"Too slow."
Miya, who stood motionless, raised his right hand toward the three of them.
