"Is this it?" Looking at this messy forest, Jiraiya asked the young fruit farmer who led the way.

"Yes, not exactly." "This is just one of them," says the young grower, "and along the border, there are three other fruit trees that have been knocked over. ”

"Are these the fruit trees that were knocked over? What a beast so nasty! Looking at the fruittree that was powerless, Jiu Sinai denounced the beast that did not take care of it because of his distress.

"I'm sorry for you, let's investigate it ourselves!" Suddenly, Jiraiya said to the fruit farmer.

"Do you want me here?" The grower asked.

"No need, it's so hot, brother, go and rest!" Jiraiya smiled.

"Really?"

"Really!" Nodding, he affirmed.

"Then I'm leaving!" Then, seeing that there was no intention of retaining, the fruit farmers resolutely retreated.

"Jiraiya-sensei, do you have anything to say?" Jiraiya's movements did not hide from Watergate's attention, and he asked.

"Indeed, there are words!" Nodding, Jiraiya suddenly spread out his hand.

Then, a small blue toad was exposed to the trio.

"It's ......," watergate muttered.

"The teacher's psychic beast is a toad, and this toad is the induction toad among the toads." Jiraiya introduces the things in hand.

"Induction toad?" Jiu Sinai came over curiously, and looked at the little guy carefully, she was not afraid.

"Yes, it can sense whether any living thing has a chakra or not. Then, with the vibration of the abdomen, the information was conveyed to me. ”

"Awesome! It's a telegram! Yan exclaimed.

"Telegraph?" Watergate asked.

"It's like a phone!" Because in this era, technology has already pointed out the phone, so Yan explained.

"Oh~~" At this point, Mizumon nodded thoughtfully.

"Before, I wanted to teach you how to unite. But, you all understand, I didn't teach. Now, teacher, I want to teach you a new knowledge, and it's called ...... You can’t judge a book by its cover! ”

"Let no man be a disfigure...... What do you mean? Kushina asked.

"From the moment we came here, down to the fruit growers, up to the Lady Baiguo, they were all chakra owners. That is, none of them are ordinary people. ”

"What!?" Yan and Jiu Sinai exclaimed in surprise.

"Teacher, are they all ninjas? If you have a ninja, this quest should be at least B-rank! Watergate said.

“…… The point is not B-grade! Jiraiya looked at the water gate and said, "The point is that the other party has chakra." ”

"Then the other side is all ninja!" Kushina said.

"Nope! The other party is just an ordinary person who owns chakra. Jiraiya shook his head and said, "I observed their hands, their movements, their facial expressions, and the rhythm of their breathing. I found out that they are just ordinary people who own chakra. It's like ...... It's like ......"

"Like a first-grader?" Yan continued.

"That's right! They should have just completed Chakra's cultivation education. From the ninja's point of view, their threat is not much worse than the original. ”

"Is there a gap between civilians and professional soldiers?" Pinching his chin, Uchiha Yan thought.

"That'...... Mr. Jiraiya, what should I do next? Kushina asked.

"You don't have to worry about this matter, I'll report it to the third generation. Now, all we need to do is complete Ms. Baiguo's mission. Jiraiya said.

"If something like this happens, will this mission continue?" Watergate asked.

"The two are not in conflict, until the other party shows hostility towards Konoha, we just act like we don't know anything." Zilai also spread his hands.

"But, knowing that I know everything, how can I treat them with the same attitude as before?" Here, Kushina frowned.

"Hahahaha, Jiu Sinai, this is the teacher's homework for you! Ninjas should be able to protect their intelligence in front of outsiders. Jiraiya smiled.

"Chakra?" Muttering, Yan recalled the appearance of Baiguo's mother and daughter.

"That's it! I haven't forgotten the reconnaissance skills I learned in school! Clapping his hands, Jiraiya waved his hand around and said.

"Of course!" Watergate nodded.

Detective is a criminal investigation technique in which ninjas collect information about their surroundings and restore their way of life.

This technique is included in the fourth-grade ninjutsu introduction.

After collecting information about the area where the fruit trees had been overthrown, the four of them came to a conclusion after a period of calculations.

"There are no wild beasts, these are artificially disguised." At this point, Watergate said.

"It's really thanks to this weather, it's hot for a long time and it doesn't rain, and a lot of details have been preserved." Looking at the scene, Yan sighed.

"Is it human? It's ugly! Kushina said with a frown.

"Since it was done by people, there are only two possibilities." Here, Jilai also smiled lightly: "The first type is the inner ghost." In other words, it is the farmers here who destroy the trees. The second type is outsiders. ”

"You know what? Ms. Baiguo is a fruit businessman who has suddenly risen in recent years. Ninety percent of the fruits in Konoha come from Ms. Baiguo. I think that because of this, Ms. Baiguo has offended a lot of people. ”

"It's too inferior, and it can't be on the table at all." Shaking his head, Yan said.

"Yes! These so-called two possibilities are actually just one of them. The difference is what the other side's means are. Jiraiya said.

"We came unassumingly, if it was done by outsiders. Well, the other party doesn't know. In the next two days, the other side will continue to act......" Watergate said.

"If it's an internal ghost, the other party will stop acting because they are afraid of us. At that time, the clues can also lock some people. Yan said.

"Hmm~~ That's right!" nodded, and said from the beginning: "Since the analysis is so clear, you already know what to do, right?" ”

"Understood!" The three of them said in unison.

Then, night fell, and darkness invaded the land. Above the sky, clouds were thick, and the moon and stars were obscured. So much so that tonight was terriblely dark.

Of course, this darkness is nothing to a ninja. With the blessing of Chakra, the ninja's eyes can not only avoid night blindness, but also night vision, which is much stronger than ordinary eyes.

"Boom!"

The orchard at night is not very quiet, and the sound of all kinds of small animals walking and insects chirping is endless.

However, even so, for a ninja with sensitive senses, the dull crashing sound was still very noticeable.
