Chapter 9 Kushina is captured

"Boss, this is this quarter's revenue."

In the courtyard, a figure wrapped tightly was half-kneeling in front of Lu Lin, holding an account book in both hands.

Lu Lin made a gesture, and the maid beside him obediently took the account book from the man and handed it to Lu Lin.

"Go down first. I'll call you if anything happens."

After sending his men away, Lu Lin flipped through the account book in his hand, which marked the income of Lu Lin's multiple industries within three months.

This was a summary of all industries, and the man just now was Lu Lin's subordinate who specifically brought all industries together.

At the end of each quarter, he would visit various properties in Lu Lin to investigate the income and expenditure of those stores.

It has been mentioned before that the owner of the milk tea shop is Lu Lin, but Lu Lin’s business includes not only milk tea but also mercenaries. Team A and Team B of the Tea Kingdom are mercenaries trained by Lu Lin.

But now the two teams are protecting the village, so they rarely go out to take bounty missions.

After flipping through the account book for a while, Lu Lin threw it down.

As expected, after giving up part of the milk tea shop business, even if those merchants did not open stores in the city where Lu Lin completely occupied the market, Lu Lin's business was still affected to some extent.

"Two damned bastards."

Money is related to Lu Lin's improvement in strength. If he reduces his income, wouldn't that be weakening his strength in disguise?

Could it be that the two old guys from the Elders Council were standing on the fifth floor?

Putting away the murderous intent in his heart, Lu Lin lay on the recliner and called out to the system:

"Let's try ten bursts first."

I am in a bad mood today, and supporting the system in poor mountainous areas should make me happy.

After a while, Lu Lin frowned and became even angrier!

Looking at the sky outside which had already turned completely dark, he decided to leave the village and look for trouble with the bandits.

Although it is difficult to enter and exit the village, this does not pose a problem for Lu Lin, as he has many ways to leave the village secretly.

Lu Lin did what he said. He changed into a set of night clothes, sneaked out of the tribe and came to the edge of the village. There was a large forest here and few people came here on weekdays, which made it convenient for Lu Lin to leave.

After leaving the village and walking forward for a while, Lu Lin relaxed after confirming that he was out of the village.

But just relaxing is not enough, he now needs to vent his inner anger.

But the strange thing is that the bandits who used to roam around everywhere were not seen today.

"Could it be that Kakuzu that fella has killed them all?"

Lu Lin's face looked a little bad. This guy Kakuzu was really obsessed with money. He even didn't let go of the bandits with only a small bounty.

Lu Lin always thought that he would be at a loss if he didn't pick up money when he went out, but compared to Kakuzu, he was still slightly inferior.

Just when I was feeling depressed, suddenly several chakras appeared in my perception.

"Ok?"

If Kagura was not mistaken, the cold and evil chakra seemed to belong to the Nine-Tails.

Of course he recognized the Nine-Tails Chakra, after all, he had met Kushina many times in the village.

"But why is she here so late at night? All the Anbu in the village are dead? And she even released the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki."

Lu Lin cursed inwardly, then hid his breath and blended into the big tree beside him.

Kushina was very sad today. She was sleeping well at home, but suddenly several burly men broke in and wanted to take her away.

He ran for his life and shouted loudly, but did not attract any people from the village.

She couldn't understand why on normal days there would be people trying to stop her if she took a step out of the village, but today no one came to save her even after she shouted so loudly.

"Go faster!"

Just as she was thinking about it, someone pushed her hard from behind, and then the person started chatting with his companions:

"Those guys in Konoha are really difficult to deal with. We were almost discovered."

"This Nine-Tails Jinchuriki is really hard to catch. He's just a Chunin."

"Okay, stop complaining and hurry up and leave the Fire Country. We'll be safe once we get to the village."

The three of them spoke with a pure Sand Country accent. Apparently, now that they had completed their mission, they no longer needed to work hard to maintain their accents like the Fire Country.

Kushina was now cold, tired, and terrified.

Even though these people's accents had revealed which village they were from, Kushina had never left the village and had rarely seen or chatted with people from other villages.

Therefore, she didn't know the identities of these people, let alone where they were taking her.

"I heard that it's very painful to take the tailed beast out of the body. What should I do? I'm most afraid of pain. Wuwuwu, why doesn't anyone come to save me? I clearly left a mark."

Although Kushina usually has a bad temper and is known for being hot-tempered, that is just to cover up her inner cowardice. Because of her red hair and chubby face, she was often bullied by her classmates, so she could only make herself look not easy to mess with.

The three of them were walking and chatting with Kushina, and they didn't notice at all that a pair of eyes lit up in the woods they just passed by.

"The one from the Sand Village? This plot... should be the one where Minato heroically saves the damsel in distress, and then Kushina opens up to Minato completely."

Lu Lin touched his chin. He was just in a bad mood. It just so happened that these three ninjas from the Sand Village came to him. It was God's will.

When Lu Lin encounters something that is good for him but needs to make a choice, he is the most devout believer.

Since it was God's will, Lu Lin might as well obey it respectfully. His figure slowly disappeared into the woods.

Not far away, three people from the Sand Village were pulling Kushina while cursing. They wanted to knock Kushina out and carry her away, but they were afraid of the Nine-Tails in her body, so they could only endure it and walk slowly.

But this is the interior of the Fire Country, and the few of them can only find out the surrounding situation in advance as they walk.

Of course, with the perception of two jonin and one elite jonin, they could not discover Lu Lin who had prepared in advance and hidden himself.

boom!

Suddenly there was a loud bang, and one of them flew out. After falling to the ground, there was a big hole in his stomach, and his intestines were all over the floor. It was obvious that he was not going to survive.

"Help...Help me."

The man shouted that he didn't want to die yet because his family was waiting for him.

The sound also woke up the other two stunned ninjas. They didn't even look at the ninja lying on the ground. They just got ready and were ready to defend against unknown attacks at any time.

Because they didn't see clearly how their companions flew out.

"Who?! Come out now!"

In the quiet woods, the only sounds that could be heard were the breathing of the two men, besides the panting of the fallen Sand Village ninja.
