Chapter 24 - CHAPTER 24

That evening,

This night the moon is dark and windy

The moon is hidden in thick dark clouds

There is almost no light at all

It's late at night

Most of the villagers were already asleep

The whole village also seemed quiet.

And at one point,

With a breaking wind, several black shadows appeared on the roof of the "Sweet Dream Experience Hall."

These people were all dressed in black, their attire clearly the standard Root ANBU combat suit, and only one pair of eyes were exposed.

"That's right!"

"Do it!!"

After confirming that it is correct,

The two men in black used Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique,

The other two men in black worked together to use Wind Release: Pressure Burst!

With the help of the wind, the fire burned violently and soon swallowed the store!

And the fire spread extremely fast, clearly boosted by chakra!

And this sky-rushing fire immediately attracted the attention of a Guard Team that was on the night patrol nearby!

The captain of this guard squad is none other than Uchiha Tetsuhuo, the veteran who previously assisted Chiye in stabilizing the clan!

When he saw the firelight, he immediately led people towards this side!

When he saw the shop that was engulfed in fire,

And those sneaky figures in black,

Uchiha Tetsuhuo immediately understood what was going on Root's style was too obvious.

At the moment he was furious: "MD!! Dare to spoil Lao Tzu's wealth? Brothers, to Lao Tzu!!"

A crowd of people flocked to it!

However, these men in black were all Root elites trained personally under Danzo, and had extraordinary combat strength!

Therefore, instead of being caught, the Guard Team was forced to retreat!

However,

As more and more people from the Guard rushed to support,

The situation also began to reverse.

Those men in black began to block the back road until they were finally surrounded!

"Say! Who the hell sent you?"

Uchiha Tetsuhuo said coldly!

In his opinion,

These men in black were either sent by the village high-level,

Or they were sent by those big families in the village who secretly feared the rise of Uchiha.

But anyway,

Since you dare to spoil their business,

Then be prepared to pay the price!

Seeing that they couldn't escape, a fierce color flashed in their eyes, and then their bodies trembled, and they fell straight to the ground.

Seeing this, a team member immediately stepped forward to check,

Immediately after that, he said to Uchiha Tetsuhuo: "Report captain, these people all bit their tongues and committed suicide!"

"What!?"

Uchiha Tetsuhuo's face immediately darkened! Root's suicide-seal methods were infamous even within ANBU.

After that, he left some people to fight the fire, and he quickly ran to inform Chiye of this matter!

Soon Chiye came to the scene!

"Patriarch, this bastard who sent someone to secretly set fire to it is really lacking in morality!"

"Have the ability to compete with us brightly!"

"What kind of hero is playing such a despicable method!"

Uchiha huffed!

Qianye was very calm.

His business was so profitable,

It was not surprising that it would provoke the jealousy and red-eyed madness of some people.

Therefore, he had long expected such a day.

In his opinion,

The mastermind behind the scenes, Ba Cheng, is the gang of the village high-level!

Because other than that, others don't dare to offend Uchiha at all!

This point, since now, no one has dared to jump out and grab business with Uchiha, which is enough to prove!

And then,

Qianye squatted on the ground, reached out and pried open the mouth of one of the deceased, and saw a black mark on the other party's tongue.

"The Seal of the Tongue—Danzo's cursed tongue bane…"

"Sure enough, it's that old guy!"

Chiya immediately understood what was going on. Root operatives were the only ones in the village who used such absolute seals to prevent leaking secrets.

However, if this is only all, it is not enough to bring down Tuanzo.

After all, it is not only Tuan Zang who will seal this spell; Hiruzen, Koharu, and even Homura were all aware of its existence.

Moreover, now people are dead.

At that time, it must be whatever he says.

After thinking about it, Qianye turned back to Uchiha Iron Fire and said, "Bring these people back to the Guard Department and keep a close guard!"

"Huh?"

Uchiha was confused.

The Police Department is not a morgue.

People are dead—

Why bring it back to the Police Department?

But he was also very sensible and did not ask more, and called a few people to carry these bodies away.

...

When the villagers came to the Dream Experience Center early the next morning, they found that the shop had been burned down!

"What's the situation? How did the shop burn like this?"

"Could it be that you accidentally caught fire last night?"

"I guess someone must be jealous that the Dream Experience Hall made money, so they deliberately set it on fire!"

"Even if you are red-eyed and jealous, you can't do this!"

"Yes, there is no morality at all!"

"..."

If an ordinary shop is burned like this,

Then everyone may regret at best.

However, the Sweet Dream Experience Hall is different and has a certain entertainment nature.

Now a group of people want to play but can't, and naturally feel uncomfortable.

Not long after, Uchiha Iron Fire came over with a few members of the Guard.

Seeing this, someone immediately asked Uchiha what was going on.

"A couple of thieves deliberately set fire last night! But we caught it on the spot!!"

Intentional arson?

This is exactly what many villagers guessed in their hearts. ,

At this time, Uchiha snorted coldly again, and said disdainfully: "Those little thieves wanted to bite their tongues and commit suicide at that time, but they were stopped by us in time!"

"Later, during interrogation, I found that the tongues of those thieves had been planted with the Seal of Tongue Bane…"

"But it still can't stump us!"

"Because our patriarch has already used a secret technique to remove the spell mark on the tongues of those people!"

"The next thing we just need to torture well will definitely make them willingly say who is behind the scenes before dawn the next day!"

Saying that, Uchiha Iron Fire is to lead people away.

And not long after Uchiha Iron Fire left, a figure hiding in a hidden corner also disappeared into the darkness…
