Naruto: I, a decent person, have become the mastermind behind all this!

Entering the Kingdom of Rivers, according to Konoha's intelligence, Hoshita Shuichi and the others found a cave on a mountain where someone once lived.

"Looking at the traces, it's at least a month ago."

Uchiha Shisui Road.

Hoshita Shuichi looked around the cave, and then said proactively: "Minato-sensei, I'll go outside and check."

Namikaze Minato nodded: "Sanyo, you go with Shuichi."

Kurama Sanyo nodded immediately: "Yes, Minato-sensei."

So Hoshita Shuichi and Kurama Sanyo left the cave and looked around.

Not long after, Hoshita Xiuichi came to the top of the mountain and looked south.

He raised his eyebrows, then took out a monocular telescope from his backpack and looked down the mountain: "There is a village..."

"There are a lot of people, but the farmland seems a bit deserted?"

Xingxia Xiuyi frowned slightly. He only saw women and old people busy in the fields, but no young and strong men.

Looking inside the village, there are children playing, and occasionally young and strong men can be seen.

Too lazy?

Hoshita Shuichi put away the monocular telescope, found Kurama Sanyo, and reunited with Namikaze Minato to inform him of the situation he had detected.

After hearing this, Minato Namikaze said: "Shuichi, do you suspect there is something wrong with this village?"

Hoshita Hide nodded: "The information the village gave about this stronghold is not without purpose. It is very likely that this is a stronghold of wandering ninjas, but it was abandoned."

"But there happens to be a village at the bottom of the mountain. In fact, this is a good base."

Anma Shanyang said: "Judging from the traces nearby, someone has indeed lived here for a long time."

It is impossible that all traces of eating, drinking, and diarrhea would be gone in just a few months, unless someone specially cleaned them up, but obviously not.

Everyone understood what Shuichi Hoshita meant. Assuming that this stronghold belonged to wandering ninjas or bandits, then the village below probably belonged to the sphere of influence of wandering ninjas and bandits in the past and would be worshiped.

Then you can get information from it.

"The village is indeed a good place to get information."

Namikaze Minato immediately made a decision: "Then let's start from the village."

Kurama Shanyang said: "The easiest way is to bring someone back and interrogate him using illusion."

Both he and Uchiha Shisui have this ability.

Brutal and straightforward!

Hoshita Shuichi suggested: "Perhaps we can obtain information in a more secretive way."

Both Namikaze Minato and Uchiha Shisui knew Hoshita Shuichi's hidden meaning, which was that they were worried about other situations in the village and external forces.

After all, it was previously speculated that there might be traces of Sunagakure Village.

Uchiha Shisui said: "If you want to collect intelligence covertly, it's best to wait until night."

If you enter during the day and use the transformation technique, you will be easily seen through.

After all, you have to get information, and you have to do it secretly.

As for going directly to the village to inquire, it would be more of a warning. A stranger entering the village would immediately arouse alert.

If you sneak in at night and use illusions in the dead of night, there will be very few traces left, and most of the villagers will regard it as a dream.

Namikaze Minato immediately decided: "Then we will sneak into the village at night."

Hoshita Shuichi immediately suggested: "Minato-sensei, maybe we can get familiar with that village in a simpler way first."

Namikaze Minato and the others immediately looked at Hoshita Shuichi.

Hoshita Shuichi smiled, and the next moment, he turned into a black cat.

Namikaze Minato looked at it and immediately recognized it, it was the wild cat from the team's first mission a few days ago.

Uchiha Shisui's eyes lit up and he said with a smile: "Shuichi's method is indeed very good. The presence of a wild cat in this place should not attract attention."

Namikaze Minato smiled and nodded: "Indeed."

Hoshita Shuichi was secretly a little weird at the moment, because he triggered another entry.

【Transformation Master】

Acquisition conditions: The number of transformation types reaches 100 and meets the requirements.

Entry effect: ever-changing, a bird can fly, a fish can swim.

The effect is a bit explosive, but the difficulty is also amazing.

Humans are one species, cats are one species.

He has met the requirements for the human species, but cats have not.

Although there are no flaws in the appearance, Hoshita Shuichi does not understand some of the cat's habits, and it is easy for flaws to appear.

But in fact, just 100 types is amazing.

After releasing the transformation technique, Hoshita Shuichi looked at Uchiha Shisui and smiled: "You should be more familiar with Neko Shisui."

Namikaze Minato also looked at Uchiha Shisui: "Shisui, then this task will be left to you."

"clear!"

Uchiha Shisui nodded.

Namikaze Minato immediately said to Kurama Sanyo, "Sanyo, you are responsible for the plan to stop the water."

Kurama Sanyo said quickly: "Yes, Minato-sensei."

Uchiha Shisui and Kurama Sanyo acted immediately.

However, Uchiha Shisui, who transformed into a wild cat, did not enter the village immediately. Instead, he shuttled through the forest and quickly found a group of tanukis.

So Uchiha Shisui immediately turned into a tanuki, and hung out among the tanukis, letting himself be tainted with the scent of wild tanukis.

There are too many shortcomings of ordinary transformation techniques, not only chakra, but also the smell is difficult to change, and can only be compensated for by other methods.

And when Xingxia Xiuyi saw these, he immediately gave a thumbs up secretly.

He learned.

If he wants to win the entry [Transformation Master], animals will be his big choice.

…

In the cave, Shuichi Hoshita practiced the use of Senbon, and time flew to noon.

Uchiha Shisui and Kurama Sanyo came back together.

"Minato teacher, Shuichi's previous speculation was completely correct."

Uchiha Shisui was quite shocked, and then reported the information he had collected.

Although it was just some fragments of chat, it was confirmed that there were two wandering ninjas in the village at the foot of the mountain, and they were also the leaders of the bandits.

And the young and strong men in the village were almost all their subordinates.

At the same time, the two wandering ninjas did have a source of intelligence, and tonight was the time to meet.

And there would be a dispatch tomorrow.

After the information was reported, there was a silence in the cave.

The village was a bandit's nest, causing considerable damage to the Land of Fire.

Revenge is imperative.

But that was a village.

Should we kill the young and strong men who participated in the robbery in the Land of Fire, or cut the grass and root it out?

"What a fucked up world..."

Shuichi Hoshita sighed secretly.

I have heard a lot of similar things in my previous life, but if he were asked to go to the village for revenge, would he feel burdened if he killed everyone or only the young and strong?

Namikaze Minato glanced at the three people and said, "Don't worry about the village down the mountain. Now we will split into two groups and keep an eye on these two wandering ninjas."

"Yes, Minato-sensei!"

Hoshita Shuichi and the other two gathered their thoughts and responded in unison.

So, Hoshita Shuichi and Namikaze Minato formed a group, and Uchiha Shisui and Kurama Sanyo formed a group, and began to closely monitor the village down the mountain.

This was a long process.

It was not until late at night that the two wandering ninjas walked out of the village and went west.

Hoshita Shuichi and the others immediately followed and hung far behind.
