"I investigated the surrounding ninja tool stores and found that they mostly sold Golden Organization ninja tools, and they have all kinds of ninja tools. So I think that the information about the Golden Organization's stronghold in Ohira should be correct. Even if it's wrong, it should not be too far off. It should also be still in the Land of Rivers' territory. Otherwise, it was impossible for those shops to directly order from the Golden Organization."
"Lastly, I used the Transformation Technique to trick an owner of a shop into ordering a batch of ninja tools. I left a Shadow Clone to monitor the situation and have him follow the deliveryman later."
Kakashi summarized everything he did today.
"Cutting in their route? Not bad." Nagasawa praised.
Although he did not think that following the deliveryman would provide much, finding the source of their ninja tool was not bad.
No matter how secretive the Golden Organization was, they still had to sell the ninja tool. Using the ninja tool to track the Golden Organization was indeed something.
"Midori and I didn't investigate the Golden Organization directly today. Instead, we investigated various forces in Ohira and went to the black market." Ensui followed up.
"I found that this place is very chaotic." Ensui thought for a moment and used the word "chaotic" to describe it.
"There are all kinds of Shinobi organizations everywhere. From big ones like the Golden Organization which sells ninja tools across the country to small ones that even have only two or three Genin as members."
"Midori is at a loss for words. Where did they get their confidence forming a Shinobi Organization with just threemembers?" Midori Inuzuka added.
"After all, there are a lot of civilians here. Those Genins may not be much to you, but ordinary people can't deal with Shinobi, even if it is Genin." Nagasawa reminded.
Midori Inuzuka was born and raised in Konoha. She was surrounded by Shinobi, so he didn't think it was anything special. But here in the Land of Rivers, there were not that many Shinobi, and most of the population were ordinary people.
For ordinary people, there was no difference between the Genin Chunin and Jonin. All they knew was that killing ordinary people like them was easy for Shinobi.
"Ensui, you also did well. Although you got no lead about the Gold organization, you may get more later if you have a solid foundation." Nagasawa also praised Ensui.
"What about me? I also worked together with Ensui. Why didn't you praise me?" Midori Inuzuka asked with widened eyes.
Her face was full of disbelief and she seemed to be silently accusing Nagasawa of being biased.
Dong!
Nagasawa quickly knocked on Midori Inuzuka's head with lightning speed and said angrily, "Midori Inuzuka also performed well. She is worthy to learn from. Are you satisfied now?"
Midori Inuzuka did not care whether Nagasawa was being sarcastic or not. She smiled happily and proudly raised his chest.
" Squad Leader Nagasawa, don't worry. Midori will not let you down for giving your position to me."
Nagasawa was shocked. He wasn't even promoted yet and Midori Inuzuka already called herself a Squad Leader.
He used his finger to poke Midori Inuzuka's head and sighed, "I am still Squad Leader now."
"It's only a matter of time before you're promoted. I'm already prepared to take over your job." Midori Inuzuka didn't mind and laughed.

The next day, Nagasawa transformed into Whitebeard again and entered the Golden Organization's stronghold.
Yesterday, when he left, Yokiji gave him a VIP card.
Using the VIP card, Nagasawa walked all the way to Yokiji's office without being stopped.
Nagasawa politely knocked on the door, then slightly bent down and entered Yokiji's office.
At this time, Yokiji was handling some documents.
Looking up at the walking money, Yokiji smiled and said, "Mr. Whitebeard, you should've told the guard that you are here. This office is not as comfortable as the reception room."
Yesterday, Yokiji asked for Nagasawa's name, and Nagasawa told her to call him Whitebeard.
Yokiji thought that this should be Nagasawa's nickname when she noticed Nagasawa's strange crescent-shaped mustache.
Although she didn't know why Nagasawa wanted her to call him by his nickname instead of his real name, Yokiji didn't care about this little detail since she was about to get his hands on so much money.
"Gu ra ra ra ra."
Nagasawa laughed. "It doesn't matter what. I'm here to show you the blueprint of my custom-made naginata."
"Blueprint?"
"Can't I provide my own blueprint?"
Yokiji thought for a moment and said, "It's not that it can't be done, but if it's too complicated, you may have to pay more money. However, since your order is big enough, you don't need to charge additional fees."
She was actually lying. She simply said that because the blacksmith who was in charge of making custom-made ninja tools named Master Tie was really bad-tempered and felt that his client's blueprints were unreasonable.
The Shinobi who requested such a thing really infuriated Master Tie, so he deliberately charged more money for the customers that provided their own blueprint.
Although she was not interested in Master Tie's obsession, Yokiji still agreed with the decision to charge more money.
She would go against anyone and anything but money.
Taking the blueprint that Nagasawa handed to her, Yokiji gave it a look.
She actually miraculously discovered that this blueprint was decent.
Although she neither knew how to draw a blueprint nor create ninja tools, she was not a complete amateur in that aspect either.
She had seen a lot of blueprints and could imagine it in her mind to a certain extent. Nagasawa's blueprint was still acceptable.
However, Yokiji couldn't imagine someone as burly and muscular as Nagasawa was the one who designed it.
It'd make more sense if someone with Nagasawa's build used a pen to stab someone instead of drawing a blueprint.
"Murakumogiri..., you've even thought of a name. This name sounds really mighty, very suitable for you." Yokiji smiled and complimented Nagasawa.
She was now more and more convinced that Nagasawa was serious in this business.
It was impossible for a strong person like the man in front of her to specifically make a weapon blueprint just to fool Golden Organization as it wouldn't benefit anyone.
The Golden Organization would not lose anything. After all, if the customer did not give a deposit, they would forge their weapon.
Nagasawa just laughed.
He was thinking if he should really pay the deposit and then ask Golden Organization to forge Murakumogiri.
With Murakumogiri, he should be able to improve his acting skill one step further.
Although he did not have that much money, he could ask Minato, telling him it was a necessary expense to get close to Golden Organization.
He could take the money back once he crushed Golden Organization.
He could basically forge Murakumogiri made of Chakra Blade for free.
