Chapter 269 The Evil God Cult

Then, without waiting for Naruto and the others to react, he quickly dragged the little boy away without saying anything.

The little boy was about to get the fish ball, so he was pulled by the older boy's arm and followed him staggeringly, looking back at Naruto as he walked. His eyes showed reluctance to give up the fish ball and confusion about this sudden situation.

Naruto scratched his head in confusion, looking at their departing backs, muttering, "Hey, what's going on? I just wanted to treat him to a fish ball."

At this moment, Sasuke and Kimimaro each came to Naruto with food, and Sasuke asked in confusion: "What's wrong with Naruto?"

Naruto was still looking at the direction where the two children disappeared with a puzzled look on his face. He came back to his senses when he heard Sasuke's question.

He scratched his head and said helplessly, "I'm not sure. I wanted to treat the little brother to some fish balls, but the older boy suddenly ran over, glared at me, and hurriedly took the little brother away. I don't know why he was so defensive against me."

Naruto stood up with a bewildered look on his face, scratched his head, looked at their departing backs in confusion, and muttered: "Hey, what's going on? I just wanted to treat him to a fish ball."

Sasuke took a bite of the fish in his hand, frowned slightly, and said thoughtfully: "It seems that these two children seem to have some unspeakable secrets. I am afraid they have experienced something that makes them so wary of strangers."

Kimimaro nodded silently, his eyes following the two children until they disappeared in the crowd. He said softly, "Although this place seems lively, the lives of the people there are probably not easy either. The children must have suffered a lot, which is why they are like this."

Naruto nodded thoughtfully. Although he was still a little worried about the situation of the two children, he temporarily suppressed his doubts and didn't think about it anymore. He continued to eat the grilled fish handed to him by Kimimaro.

The grilled fish exudes an enticing aroma, the fish skin is grilled to a golden and crispy texture, and with a gentle bite you can see the tender and juicy fish meat inside.

Naruto took a big bite, and the delicious taste of the grilled fish instantly spread in his mouth. The crispy outside and tender inside made him couldn't help but exclaim in satisfaction: "Well, this grilled fish is really delicious, Kimimaro, you picked a good one!"

Kimimaro just nodded slightly, with no expression on his face. However, from his slightly narrowed eyes, it can be seen that he was quite satisfied with the taste of the grilled fish.

Sasuke was eating his food silently, looking up at Naruto from time to time. Seeing that he was eating voraciously again, he couldn't help but chuckle and shook his head, thinking that this guy was really careless.

After eating the grilled fish, the three continued to stroll around.

The streets of the town are still bustling under the afternoon sun, with various stalls and pedestrians interweaving to create a picture full of life.

Naruto looked around curiously, stopping every now and then to look at the new gadgets;

Sasuke, on the other hand, folded his arms across his chest and followed at a leisurely pace, his eyes scanning the surroundings warily;

Kimimaro walked silently at the end, his eyes calm but also paying attention to the movements around him.

As night fell, the town was gradually shrouded in a hazy darkness, and the noisy atmosphere faded a little.

The three of them found a homestay and planned to stay there for the night.

The homestay is a two-story building. The wooden structure exudes an ancient atmosphere. The lanterns hanging at the door emit soft light, making it look particularly warm in the night.

Just as they were about to step in, they ran into a middle-aged man.

The man seemed to be walking in a hurry, with his head down, and did not notice someone in front of him, and suddenly bumped into Naruto.

There was a loud "bang" and the man staggered back a few steps, and a package in his hand almost fell out of his hand.

Naruto didn't care at all when he was hit. He quickly reached out to support the middle-aged man and said apologetically, "Oh, uncle, I'm sorry. I didn't pay attention to the road. Are you okay?"

After the middle-aged man stood firm, he was stunned for a moment, then raised his head with a look of fatigue and panic on his face.

He looked at Naruto, then at Sasuke and Kimimaro, with a hint of joy in his eyes, and actually said: "You are from other places, right? Are you interested in joining the evil god cult?"

When Naruto heard this, his eyes widened and his face was full of surprise: "Evil God Cult?"

Sasuke frowned slightly, looked at the middle-aged man, and an inexplicable sense of vigilance surged in his heart.

He said coldly: "We are not interested, stop talking nonsense here and leave quickly."

Just when Naruto wanted to ask in detail, a shout came from inside the store: "Get out of here right now." The voice was full of energy and anger.

Then a middle-aged woman came running over in a hurry.

She ran out of breath, with an angry look on her face and her eyes showing disgust for the middle-aged man.

Seeing the middle-aged woman approaching, a trace of fear flashed in the middle-aged man's eyes, as if he had seen something extremely terrifying. He immediately turned around and ran out.

The speed was so fast, as if there was a ferocious beast chasing him from behind.

Naruto scratched his head, looking at the middle-aged man's receding back in confusion, then turned to the middle-aged woman and asked, "Auntie, what's going on? Why are you so angry that you told him to get out?"

The middle-aged woman stopped walking, took a few breaths, calmed down, and then said, "Humph, that evil cult is not a good thing. It is dedicated to deceiving people, cheating people of their money, and making some people do things that are against the will of heaven and earth. This bastard is trying to recruit people around here every day, which makes our area restless."

Sasuke's frown remained unchanged, and he said seriously: "There is such a cult organization. It seems that this place is not peaceful."

Kimimaro nodded silently, with a little more vigilance in his eyes: "We have to be careful, we might run into their people again."

But Naruto became interested. He asked the middle-aged woman with interest: "Auntie, can you tell me about this evil cult?"

When the middle-aged woman heard Naruto's words, she immediately showed an expression of disgust, her brows were tightly furrowed, and the muscles on her face seemed to twitch slightly because of disgust.

"Humph, that evil cult, don't even mention how bad it is, it's just a thing that harms people!" she said unhappily.

However, when her eyes inadvertently swept over the banknotes in Naruto's hand, her eyes changed instantly. The original disgusted expression seemed to be blown away by a gust of wind, and she immediately replaced it with a different look.

Her face was immediately filled with a flattering smile, her eyes narrowed into slits, and she said hurriedly: "Hey, young men, you are here to stay in the hotel. Since you want to know so much, I, as your aunt, will tell you everything. Come on, let's go inside and talk first. It's so inconvenient to stand here." As she said that, she warmly invited Naruto and the others to go into the house. Her attentive look was completely different from the disgust she had just shown.
