Therefore, the simple villagers did not reject the arrival of this man, and at the same time helped the monk build a thatched house where he could barely live in peace.

In this regard, the monk is naturally very grateful to the villagers of this village, so an important lesson he practices every day is to pray for the residents of this village, praying that they can live and work in peace and contentment, and live until their natural death.

In this troubled ninja world, wanting to live until natural death is simply a luxury.

Even in the remote country of Kawa, with this seeming tranquility, it is difficult to achieve.

Because in this country of Kawawa where there are mountains and rivers everywhere, except for the rare possibility of war, many other things happen.

For example, there are many ferocious beasts in the mountains and forests, and even some beasts that have inadvertently absorbed chakra and gradually opened up their wisdom, and there are also some wandering ninjas who have turned into bandits.

These residents are their main source of food and income.

Therefore, just because there is no war in Kawano country, it does not mean that life is very comfortable. As long as there are things like chakra and ninjas, there will be no comfortable life for civilians.

But strangely enough, since the ascetic monk came to the village, this village and even some villages in the surrounding areas have not been attacked by bandits and bandits.

Regarding this, the villagers could only believe that it was because they followed this ascetic monk and believed in the so-called "god" who punished evil and promoted good.

In short, with the appearance of this monk, the life of the whole village suddenly became much more comfortable.

But on this day, in a village that rarely saw an outsider come to the village for several years, two people whom they had never seen before came to the village entrance.

Dressed in black, the towering black collar half covered the faces of the two visitors.

"According to the information, this is right here?"

One of the relatively young-looking people asked, his eyes scanning this ordinary village with curiosity.

It's just an ordinary village, which shows that the target was not chosen deliberately, but was chosen randomly without purpose.

However, it can be seen from some of the expressions of the residents in this village that their living conditions are not bad at this time.

"That's right." The other man wore a mask on his face, so he sounded a bit muffled, but his enunciation was still clear.

These two people were none other than Tonera and Kakuzu, who had taken over the mercenary mission from the third Tsuchikage of Iwagakure, Two-Sky Onoki.

Kakuzu is still his original appearance, while Toneri still maintains the state of "Erasing the Face".

"Actually, from now on, Lao Zi's appearance in this village can be regarded as a blessing. At least since we came to this area, we have never encountered any bandits and robbers.

In this ninja world, there are not many people who can do this." Toneri said with a little emotion.

As he said, in addition to serving their own village and country, the most important thing for ninjas is to serve themselves. It is very likely that there will be people who can make selfless contributions.

Even if he sacrifices himself for others, he cannot be an exception.

"According to what you said, Lao Zi is indeed a blessing, but you are from the perspective of these ordinary residents of the Kingdom of Sichuan. If you look at it from the perspective of the residents of the Kingdom of Earth, or even the residents of Iwagakure Village, Lao Zi

Does Zi's behavior seem irresponsible to them?"

Kakuzu was unmoved by Toneri's words, but instead put forward his own opinion.

Shiren didn't refute, just nodded.

As he said, Lao Zi's behavior was indeed a great good thing for the residents of Sichuan Country.

But for the Iwagakure Village and the Earth Country, it is a sign of irresponsibility.

It was the Iwagakure Village that trained Lao Zi and made him a Jinchuuriki and a great Jonin. However, when he gained a certain level of strength, during such a war period, Lao Zi not only failed to become an important combat force of the Iwagakure Village, but because

He couldn't stand Ohnoki's behavior and ran away directly.

Isn’t this a sign of irresponsibility for Iwagakure Village and Earth Country?

"What he solves in this way is only a superficial problem, not a fundamental problem. Once he leaves, these villages will be in dire straits again.

Facts have proved that as a four-tailed Jinchuuriki, it is impossible to always give him the opportunity to be one of the best." Toneri said frankly.

The two of them simply walked around the village, and after making some inquiries, they got the trace of Lao Zi.

The cliff behind the village.

The two of them did not hesitate and disappeared into the village.

When it appeared again, it was already behind the mountain.

On the cliff at the back of the mountain, a man was sitting cross-legged on the edge of the cliff, eyes closed, looking like he was meditating.

The appearance of Toner and Kakuzu didn't seem to attract much attention from him, and he just continued to meditate.

Kakuzu frowned when he saw this scene and wanted to step forward, but Toneri held out his hand to stop him.

He looked at Toneri with some surprise.

He shook his head gently and said, "He has done some good things, so just treat it as a sign of respect for him."

Hearing this, Kakudu nodded and said nothing more.

The two of them just stood there in silence, waiting for Lao Zi to finish his meditation.

After a while.

Lao Zi, who was sitting cross-legged and meditating, also woke up from his meditative state, stood up slowly, and bowed slightly towards Toner and Kakuzu, obviously expressing his gratitude for what they had just done.

But then, his kind-hearted appearance immediately changed, as if he had become a angry-eyed Vajra.

Wearing purple clothes and a breastplate, with his hair tied into a small bundle like a ponytail and a big beard, he really looks like a King Kong.

He obviously knew very well what Toner and Kakuzu wanted to do when they appeared here.

He clasped his hands together again and said sternly: "I'm sorry!"

A ball of fire like lava condensed between Lao Zi's hands.

Without saying a word, he started taking action directly.

Neither Toner nor Kakuzu were surprised.

"Wood Release - The Art of the Big Forest!" Multiple branches like latent snake limbs sprang out from Toneri's hands and bounded towards Lao Zi.

At the same time, Kakuzu also opened fire, and two masks fell off from his body.
