Reaching The Capital

On the other side, in the underground bounty office of the Tian Country.

Kakuzu had just completed a bounty mission and was happily counting the money in front of the counter.

For Kakuzu, the happiest thing was to listen to the crisp sound of the money.

Suddenly, Kakuzu paused, took out a note and handed it to the staff next to him.

"This money is a bit old. Change to another one."

"Okay, Sir Kakuzu."

The staff quickly changed a new bill for him.

At this moment, the person in charge of the bounty office came out from behind and whispered to Kakuzu with a mysterious face,

"Lord Kakuzu, I just received news that there is a new S -rank mission."

Kakuzu's eyes lit up. The S -rank mission represented a lot of money.

"How much?" he asked immediately.

"Fifteen million taels."

Kakuzu hurriedly put the money back into the box.

"Leave the task to me."

A trace of embarrassment flashed across the face of the person in charge, and he whispered,

"This task is a top secret mission. As long as you see it, you must take it."

"Moreover, the employer requested that each bounty can only arrange for one person to take the mission."

"Then I will take it. You should understand my strength."

The person in charge nodded and took out a mission list from the safe. He handed the relevant information to Kakuzu and said,

"The target of the assassination is Master Jigo of the Fire Temple."

The employer had the time to request that the other party could only be assassinated after they left Yunoji Temple.

Moreover, the other party could not be allowed to enter the borders of the Kingdom of Fire.

Kakuzu said with a puzzled expression, "You spent so much money just to kill a monk?"

The person in charge nodded affirmatively and said, "Yes, monks who do not have much strength, but we can not rule out the possibility that the other party has the protection of a ninja."

After receiving confirmation, they put away the mission list in satisfaction.

"Fifteen million is enough. Coincidentally, there are two small shrimps in the Tang Country. We can go together."

....

Five days later, Minato and the others escorted Jigo to the Rose Street.

The Tangzhi Temple was built on a hill not far from the Rose Street.

At this time, the Rose Street was very lively, and there were many believers visiting the Buddhist debate.

Seeing Jigo coming, one by one, the believers knelt on both sides of the street.

A devout look appeared on his face.

This was already the hinterland of the country of Tang, and there was basically no danger. Minato also gave the front position to Jigo.

He walked behind Jigo with Uchiha Tunan and Kakashi.

With every few steps, Jigo would stop and salute the believers on both sides.

It wasn't until they arrived at the foot of the Tangzhi Temple that they got rid of the fanatical believers.

Minato wiped the sweat from his forehead, revealing a sunny smile:

"Master Jigo is very popular."

Uchiha Tunan nodded, looking at the back of Jigo and muttering: "Is this Great Monk of Virtue? These believers should all acknowledge Master Jigo from the bottom of their hearts, right?"

In front of him, Jigo heard Uchiha Tunan's words behind him and said slowly, "They don't agree with me. They agree with the Buddha."

To become a Buddha as an ancestor was another good idea.

A trace of yearning flashed through Uchiha Tunan's eyes.

Walking in front, Jigo frowned and felt the pure evil thoughts even more clearly.

He immediately turned back to glance at Uchiha Tunan and said softly,

"Little fellow, have you ever thought about what kind of person you will be in the future?"

Uchiha Tunan adjusted his glasses and thought for a moment:

"Before my father passed away, he taught me to be a caring person, a person who is out of the low-level interest, and a pure person."

Minato smiled and reached out to rub Uchiha Tunan's head.

"I believe you can do it."

Hearing Uchiha Tunan's words, there was a flash of uncertainty in the eyes of Jigo in front of him.

This kind of spiritual perception ability was called the heart's eye. It was obtained from cultivation after the day after tomorrow.

The things he sensed could not be completely sure that it was true.

"You have to take a look at the Buddhist scriptures I gave you often. If you feel confused one day, you can come to the Fire Temple to find me."

The group of people had already arrived at the top of the mountain.

They saw a group of monks from Tangzhi Temple holding their hands together to welcome Jigo.

The head of Tangzhi Temple, Huizong, bowed to Jigo and said,

"Greetings, Master Jigo."

"Greetings, Grandmaster Huizong."

"Tomorrow is the Buddhist debate meeting. Please rest in the temple for a night, Master Jigo."

"Very good."

At night, Uchiha Tunan and Kakashi took turns guarding the safety of the enlightenment.

The first half of the night was Kakashi, and the second half was Uchiha Tunan.

The crescent moon was like a small golden boat in the sparse branches.

Jigo sat cross-legged in front of the Buddha statue and meditated.

Meanwhile, Uchiha Tunan was sitting motionless in front of the door of the meditation temple.

Secretly, he was distracted by controlling the white pigeon to conduct an investigation.

In this world, he could not let down his guard at any time.

The white pigeon hiding in various places opened its Sharingan. With the addition of the white eyeByakugan, everything in Rose Street was taken in.

Uchiha Tunan clearly saw many people who possessed chakra.

Most of these people were probably ninjas from the Tang Country who had come to secretly protect the order.

Suddenly, a figure was captured by the white pigeon and entered Uchiha Tunan's field of vision.

This chakra...

That was!

Uchiha Tunan suddenly opened his Sharingan, and activated Mirror World Reversal with all his strength, continuously closing his field of vision.

A figure appeared in his pupils, and it was constantly enlarging.

At this moment, the target resting on the hotel bed suddenly felt a sense of peeping.

He immediately turned over and looked out the window.

There was nothing outside.

"Was it an illusion?"

Kakuzu muttered to himself for a moment, but he could no longer sense the peeping feeling, so he could only sleep with vigilance.

Just as Kakuzu turned over, the white pigeon on the water tower on the roof of the hotel had already spread its wings and flew away.

Why is his alertness so high?

Why is this guy here?

He shouldn't be here for me, my head is not worth much.

Uchiha Tunan silently put away his Sharingan.

"Squeak ---"

At this time, the dim light shone on Uchiha Tunan, and the door of the temple behind him was opened.

Uchiha Tunan turned around and saw that Jigo was looking at him with a serious face.

Just a moment ago, when Uchiha Tunan opened his Sharingan, he was still in the middle of the night.

Jigo, who was meditating in the room, sensed an extremely evil power.

"Master Jigo, why aren't you resting?" Uchiha Tunan said gently.

Jigo was silent for a moment. He came to Uchiha Tunan's side and sat down. He looked at the cold crescent moon and said in a deep voice,

"Just now, I felt an evil aura."

Uchiha Tunan shifted his gaze away from Jigo and looked up at the night sky. He muttered,

"It's coming from me."

Jigo nodded and said in a low voice,

"I am a monk after all, and it is my duty to purify all evil beings."

The cold moonlight shone on Uchiha Tunan's calm face.

After a long silence, Uchiha Tunan slowly said,

"Master, do you want to save me?"
