Naruto: Konoha’s Kanpu

Doto, Kanpū and Gaku walked down the steep cliff in turn, and looked in three directions from left, middle and right, but they only found the big river at the bottom of the several hundred meters cliff, and there’s nothing else to be found!

“Did he jump into the river and left?”

Kanpū looked towards Gaku and said, “Gaku-senpai, can you continue to track him?”

Gaku shook his head: “If the other party jumps into the river, the smell will be broken and it will be difficult to track it again.”

“It seems that the other party is proficient in anti-tracking.” Doto said with a frown.

The three people landed on the rushing river, and Gaku held a fluke mentality and formed hand seals to use the clan’s Secret Technique, focused Chakra on his nose, and instantly raised his sense of smell to the level of a Ninken.

Unfortunately, Gaku smelled for a long time and didn’t smell anything useful.

“Let’s go up.”

Doto frowned and said, “We have to think of another way.”

“Or… how about we try to track another person?” Kanpū pondered for a while, then suddenly spoke.

“Wouldn’t it be the same for another person?” Gaku asked in confusion.

Kanpū shook his head and said: “Maybe it’s different.”

“What do you mean?” Gakus frowned slightly.

“First of all, we have to make sure of one thing. The other party has been able to kidnap so many people in Yugakure for many without being discovered. There must be more than one Shinobi, and it is most likely a Shinobi group!”

Kanpū analyzed, “We can assume that the other party is a Shinobi group, so they must have the habit of gathering intelligence in order to keep it secret! What if the other party collected the information that the leader of Yugakure entrusted the mission to our village early in the morning?”

“You mean, that Ninoko Yaro was deliberately kidnapped by the other party. The purpose is to let us take the initiative to eliminate the way to find them through smell?” Doto immediately responded.

Kanpū nodded and said: “That’s right, it’s not just Ninoko Yaro. The people who disappeared after the leader of Yugakure sent envoy to our village may be for this purpose.”

“If that’s the case…”

Gaku pondered, “Considering the arrival of Yugakure’s envoy in Konoha to send a message and the time we were on our way, ten days should have passed.”

“Can you still smell the smell after ten days?” Kanpū asked.

Gaku smiled confidently and said: “Yes!”

Then the three people immediately walked up the cliff.

“You guys are finally here, how is it? Did you find anything?” The Yugakure’s Shinobi guide asked nervously.

Gaku shook his head and said: “No, the other party jumped into the river so the smell is broken, and we couldn’t track him down.”

""

“Woof!” The big yellow dog barked, and leaned towards Gaku and spinning around, seeming to feel bad for not helping.

Gaku patted its head, and then asked the Yugakure’s Shinobi guide: “Is there anyone who has been missing for more than ten days and less than twenty days?”

“More than ten days, but less than 20 days?”

The Yugakure’s Shinobi guide was startled and quickly took out his small notebook to look through it, and quickly smiled, “Yes, there are two people! Kochiko has been missing for eleven days, and Hiromi Oto has been missing for sixteen days.”

“Take us to their house!” Doto hurriedly asked.

“Come with me.”

Under the lead of Yugakure’s Shinobi guide, Kanpū’s group of three searched the houses of the two missing persons one after another. Through asking around, Kanpū confirmed that the time of disappearance was true, and at the same time, he successfully obtained the personal clothes with their smell.

After the big yellow dog smelled the clothes of Kochiko who had been missing for 11 days, he took Kanpū and the others all the way around, and finally returned to the cliff.

‘Did I guess wrong?’

Kanpū was a little embarrassed, and felt that he had made a fool of himself.

Doto seemed to see through Kanpū’s mind, patted him on the shoulder and said, “Don’t be discouraged, there is one more.”

Kanpū’s mind shook, ‘That’s right, this one is missing eleven days ago, perhaps it happened to be the day when the leader of Yugakure sent an envoy!

Unfortunately, what disappointed Kanpū was that when Gaku gave the clothes of Hiromi Oto, who had been missing for 16 days, to the big yellow dog, it went straight down the cliff and barked a couple of times, then turned around and looked at Gaku helplessly.

Kanpū’s group of three looked at each other helplessly.

“Sorry, my deduction is wrong.” Kanpū apologized shyly.

“Why do you apologize? You did not do anything wrong.”

Gaku patted Kanpū briefly, and sighed, “But in this way, we really have to think of other ways.”

“Please, you must help us catch them!” The Yugakure’s Shinobi guide hurriedly bowed to them.

“We will do our best!” Doto said solemnly.

Back to Yugakure, Kanpū suddenly thought of someone, and said: “Two seniors, I’ll go out and look around to see if I can find anything.”

“Be careful.” Doto said.

“If there is a situation, send a signal immediately.” Gaku did not stop him either.

After separating from them, Kanpū wanted to go to Rose Street. Unfortunately, it was a few years ago that he came to Yugakure last time, and he couldn’t remember the exact way, so he had to ask the passers-by for help.

Half an hour later, Kanpū arrived at Rose Street smoothly.

The streets of Rose Street are only a little more than five meters wide, a bit narrow, but every time the wind blows, rose petals will be blown all over the street, which is a famous scenery in Yugakure!

Kanpū came here, of course not to appreciate the beautiful scenery, but to find someone.

The person he’s looking for is none other than Hidan!

If the kidnapping of the villagers in the past few years was done by the Jashinists, they will eventually find Hidan, or Hidan will take the initiative to find them. In short, as long as he finds Hidan, Kanpū may be able to find some clues.

Entering the Rose Street, Kanpū stopped at the first resident, saw someone inside, and immediately asked about Hidan’s address.

“Hidan? That little bastard lives in the next street.” The person inside seemed to be somewhat dreaded when they heard Hidan’s name, and they closed the door after leaving these words.

Kanpū’s brows slightly wrinkled. He remembered that when he came last time, Hidan was violently beaten by the Yugakure’s Shinobi guide, and then he lost his temper and kicked the roses of the residents of Rose Street over a lot, which caused many people to be greeting Hidan’s mother kindly. (T/N: Greeting kindly in this sentence is actually cursing angrily.)

‘Why are they afraid of mentioning his name now?’

‘Is Hidan already a Shinobi?’

Kanpū pondered and walked to the adjacent street, after some searching, he finally arrived at Hidan’s house.

Kanpū knocked on the door, and soon, there was an extremely aggressive voice from the house: “Which bastard dares to knock on this Lord’s door!!”

Then the door opened wide and Hidan appeared in front of Kanpū with an annoyed face, “It’s you?”

“It’s me.”

Kanpū’s gaze fell at the Yugakure’s forehead protector on Hidan’s neck, and nodded with a smile, “Shouldn’t you let me go in and sit?”

Hidan also found the Konoha’s forehead protector on Kanpū’s forehead, and said with disdain: “Why did Konoha’s Shinobi appear in this Lord’s house? Go away! You are not welcome!”

Bang!

Kanpū smiled and kicked Hidan directly into his house. Then he looked around and saw that no one was paying attention, so he hurriedly entered his house, then closed the door and locked it.

“Damn you!!!”

Hidan was kicked to the wall by Kanpū, causing the wall to crack!

“I’ll ask a question, and you’ll answer it.” Kanpū said straightforwardly.

“Bastard, this Lord won’t answer any of your questions!”

Hidan slid down from the wall, took out a kunai with his backhand, and glared at Kanpū with excitement. “And this Lord will kill you!!”

“Try it.” Kanpū looked at him with a smile, “I won’t use my two hands.”

“Go to hell!!!”

""

Hidan tiptoed a little bit, and quickly rushed to Kanpū, then stabbted the kunai towards Kanpū’s liver.

“At such a young age, your attack is really cruel and ruthless.”

Kanpū smiled and threw his foot on Hidan’s chest and abdomen. With the Extraordinary Strength, accompanied the sound of a series of ribs bursting rang, and Hidan hit the wall on the right with a whoosh, causing the wall to crack again.

“Cough!”

Hidan opened his mouth and coughed out a large mouthful of blood, and the excitement on his face gradually disappeared, “You… are you here to kill me?”

“I’ll ask a question, and you’ll answer it.” Kanpū said.

“This is Yugakure. If you kill me, don’t even think about leaving here!” Hidan threatened with a ferocious expression while clutching his broken ribs.

“You know you are Yugakure’s Shinobi.”

Kanpū looked disdainful. The reason why this guy later became Missing-nin was because of his death philosophy is different from Yugakure’s concept of peace, and then he brutally killed a lot of Yugakure’s Shinobi with his strange technique, and finally defected and left.

‘Such a person wanted to use Yugakure to scare him away at a critical moment.’

Kanpū dismissed it, and thought to himself that if Hidan was born in Konoha, he would have killed him long ago.

Kanpū calmed his mind and asked slowly: “Where are the Jashinists?”

Hidan frowned: “What Jashinists?”

“You don’t know?”

Kanpū frowned, ‘Hidan hasn’t encountered them yet?’

‘Or did he hide it?’

A thought flashed through Kanpū’s mind, and he said righteously: “Jashin is a big idiot!”

“…”

Hidan looked at Kanpū as if looking at a fool.

Kanpū released a dry cough and resisted the urge to kick him out of the wall with another kick.

‘It seems that Hidan has not yet contacted the Jashinists.’

‘It’s just that with this, I really can’t find the Jashinists anymore.’

Kanpū sighed slightly, then turned and left.

“Bastard!”

Seeing that Kanpū was about to leave, Hidan yelled arrogantly, “This Lord remembers your face!!”

Kanpū’s step stopped, he turned his head slowly, and the killing-intent honed on the battlefield pressed on Hidan’s heart heavily.

“Urgh!!”

An abnormal flush appeared on Hidan’s face, and his whole body trembled.

Kanpū squinted at Hidan, thinking about whether to kill him directly.

But at this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door outside: “Hey, Hidan, what happened at your home?”

Kanpū subconsciously looked at the cob web-like cracks on the wall, ‘Could it be that the commotion caused by the cracked wall spread to the outside?’

Then Kanpū looked towards Hidan.

Hidan also stared at Kanpū, despite the people outside knocking and shouting, he didn’t open his mouth.

“If you don’t call for help, you will die.” Kanpū approached step by step.

“Even if this Lord die, I won’t call for help!” Hidan gritted his teeth and cried out in a low voice.

“Sure enough, it’s like that.”

Kanpū smiled, “I won’t kill you this time, but we will meet again.”

‘When the time comes, I hope you can get the immortal body.’

‘I wonder if the immortal body can be collected by the Collection Technique.’

Kanpū is looking forward to it.

After leaving Hidan’s home by using Subterranean Voyage, Kanpū returned to the house arranged for them by Yugakure, but there was no one in the house, neither Doto nor Gaku are there.

Kanpū guessed that they were looking for other clues, so he waited in the house alone.

In the evening, Doto and Gaku finally came back, but from their expressions, Kanpū knew without asking that there were no clues.

The three of them discussed for a while, and in the end, they found only one solution, which is: sit back and wait for opportunities.
