After being dispersed, Kanpū led his five teammates around the Land of Grass's capital. It didn't take long before they found more than ten suspicious traces by Shinobi battles.
After preliminary testing, the two fighting sides should be Kusagakure's Shinobi and the Shinobi who destroyed the Land of Grass, but even though there was a lot of blood on the scene, there was no corpse!
Apart from this, the battle traces are mostly left over from Ninjutsu, and it covers water, fire, earth, wind, lightning, all Five-Attributes.
Kanpū threw the blame on Akatsuki without thinking about it. In Akatsuki, the ones who are good at Five-Attributes Ninjutsu are Kakuzu, Orochimaru, Hyōketsu, and Nagato.
It is impossible for Nagato to come in person, so he is ruled out.
Hyōketsu is also impossible and was excluded.
The rest are Orochimaru and Kakuzu.
Kanpū touched the chin and pondered, 'Orochimaru and Sasori of the Red Sand were in a group, killing people and collecting corpses are very consistent with their behavior pattern, but there were no snake scales left at the scene and there were no traces left by the snake after crawling.
'Kakuzu is a group with Biwa Juzo, and Biwa Juzo owns Kubikiribocho…'
A thought flashed through Kanpū's mind, he then carefully searched around the scene, and sure enough, he found a lot of trees that had been cut off, the incisions were huge and flat, obviously caused by a greatsword!
'So, it was Kakuzu and Biwa Juzo that destroyed Land of Grass!'
At this time, his other five teammates gathered and discussed the clues on the spot, only to confirm that the culprit was good at Five-Attributes Ninjutsu, and they had no clue about the others.
Kanpū couldn't stand it any longer, and interjected: "Those who can do this kind of thing must be people with no conscience. Don't think too much, it's definitely Shinobi World's S-Rank Missing-nin, and among the S-Rank Missing-nin, the ones who are good at Five-Attributes Ninjutsu are Orochimaru and Kakuzu! There are no traces of snakes left at the scene, so the murderer must be Kakuzu! Kakuzu is greedy for money and likes to mix with the black market. Who knows where the nearest black market is?"
The five members look at each other in shock.
"Husky, just based on Five-Attributes Ninjutsu, you determined the culprit is Kakuzu. Isn't your inference too arbitrary?"
"I think so too, Husky, maybe your strength is much stronger than ours, but our Anbu's experience is far better than yours!"
"I think…"
"I don't want you to think, I just want you to follow my order!"
Kanpū interrupted them roughly, "Captain Kakashi asked you to follow me, so in here, I have the final say! Tell me, where is the nearest black market?"
The five Anbu are so angry, and if it wasn't because they can't beat Kanpū, they would have beat him up and let him know how to spell the word senior!
Of course, they were also a little surprised. They wondered why Husky, who is usually so lazy, would suddenly become so active today!
However, these all are minor details. After confirming the location of the nearest black market, Kanpū immediately took these five people and set off.
After half a day, the group of six people came to a small village.
The Land of Grass was wiped out, the Daimyo was killed, and all the ministers and officials under him were also dead, so this small village is also in panic. All the villagers are hiding at their home, and they even nailed the windows with wooden boards, revealing only a small slit to check the street's situation.
After Kanpū and his group arrived in this village, he ignored these cautious villagers, and went straight to the underground black market at the east of the village.
After passing through a short underground tunnel, Kanpū and the others entered the black market.
There are some bars here like pubs. Although they are not big, there are a lot of people. With a rough glance, Kanpū saw that there are at least a dozen Shinobi, each wearing a hooded black robe.
Kanpū chuckled when he saw this. Those who live in the black market are either Missing-nin or Rogue Shinobi. And among these people, the overwhelming majority are all Genin.
'They are not strong, but full of style.' Kanpū retracted his gaze and walked straight towards the black market.
"Stop! Do not move forward!"
Several black robe Shinobi suddenly stepped forward to stop Kanpū and the others.
The black market has its rules, and any Shinobi who comes in must abide them. However, after Kanpū acquired Sage Mode, his mentality has expanded infinitely. He is unwilling and too lazy to follow the rules of the black market and directly uses Extraordinary Strength to open the way, and violently came to the deepest part of the black market amidst the exclamation.
"I want information about Kakuzu!"
Kanpū smashed the door open with a slap and demanded information from the three black-robed Shinobi inside.
"Bastard! Who are you? Do you know what this place is?"
"Do you want to be hunted down by all the Shinobi in the black market?"
"Get out of here!"
'Not cooperating?'
Under the wolf mask, Kanpū grinned, and in the next instant, a momentum and cold killing intent pressed on the three people facing him.
"Tell me about Kakuzu's information!"
Kanpū said word by word, "Or die!"
'Damn it!!'
Three black robe Shinobi were both surprised and angry.
But looking at Kanpū and the others' outfits, their hearts sank, 'Konoha's Anbu?'
'They're someone we can't afford to offend.'
At any rate, this is just a black market's branch in the Land of Grass, an insignificant branch. Even if it is destroyed by Konoha's Anbu, the black market's higher-ups will not help them.
Thinking of this, the three people immediately knew that they could do nothing but answer Kanpū's question.
"Kakuzu came to our place eight days ago, stayed here for less than half an hour and then left."
"He asked some bounty about Kusagakure's Shinobi, and other than that, he delivered the heads of some Shinobi, who were wanted and have bounties in the black market."
"The last time he appeared was three days ago, and he took a bounty mission at that time. His target was Land of Earth's A-Rank Missing-nin Mato Takashiro. That's all we know, please let us go!!"
Not to mention the three black market's small higher-ups trembling in fear, the five Anbu who followed Kanpū were also shocked.
'Takigakure's S-Rank Missing-nin, Kakuzu, actually appeared in the Land of Grass!'
'And based on the time, the Land of Grass country was wiped out after the appearance of Kakuzu!'
'Is it coincidence?'
The five Anbu didn't believeme!
"Where is that Mato Takashiro?" Kanpū asked.
"Our information shows that Mato Takashiro last appeared in a small village called Ameaki on the Land of Rain's border." The black market's small higher-ups hurriedly replied.
After getting all the information, Kanpū immediately left the black market with the other Anbu.
"Husky, your guess is correct!"
"Kakuzu is indeed very suspicious!"
"Should we go directly to the border of the Land of Rain or join with Captain Kakashi first?"
"Send two people, one to Kusagakure to find Kakashi, the other to find Shisui, as for the remaining three, follow me go to Ameaki on the border!"
Kanpū waved his hand, "Go!"
The Land of Grass is not big, but the forest is vast. It took Kanpū and the three Anbu three days to passed through the forest, and then they went straight to the Land of Rain's border!
Land of Rain is shrouded in heavy rain all year round. The clouds are huge and the sky is dark, and Kanpū feels a bit depressed when he enters the Land of Rain.
This is of course not because of the weather, but because of the Akatsuki, who is in Amegakure!
'If I can't catch up with Kakuzu in Ameaki, I have to give up. '
'Otherwise, there's no way I would go to Amegakure with just a team of one expert and three cannon fodders, right?'
'However, Kakuzu is a very good guy for making money. As long as he sees an opportunity to make a fortune on the road, he will stay there. If this happens, then we are very likely to be able to block Kakuzu in Ameaki!'
