"I know what you're thinking, and I understand why you're suspicious. But before it's confirmed, the fact that these two young men helped us is undeniable."
"Even if you still don't trust them, you shouldn't say such harsh words."
Nonota's unhappiness was also anger at this point.
Although the two gatekeepers were still very unconvinced in their hearts, they also knew that there was no point in arguing any further.
On the contrary, the two of them were likely to be labeled as ingrates, so they simply glared fiercely at Shinji and Hidan and then turned their heads away and stopped looking.
"Hey, this temper of mine!"
Hidan was very unhappy and wanted to kill these two gatekeepers on the spot.
Shinji didn't necessarily want to stop him, but he just mentioned that they should wait until they found a suitable opportunity to take action.
If they turned their faces now, wouldn't they have been doing good deeds for nothing just now?
Oh, it couldn't be considered completely working for nothing.
The mummy Cursed Spirit just now was a Level 1 Cursed Spirit, and it also gave five hundred Cursed Soul Points, so it wasn't a loss no matter how you looked at it.
Giving Shinji face, Husky-dan put away his fangs and didn't rush up to bite them to death immediately.
But anyone who had raised a husky knew that the honest and obedient behavior at this moment was just for the lawlessness at that moment!
"Sorry, the two of them are also just doing their duty, so it's inevitable that they're a little impulsive, it's not directed at you."
"Let me introduce myself, my name is Nonota, and I belong to the Sunagakure sealing team. This is my partner, Maki."
"Thank you very much just now, luckily you two took action in time to stop and kill that monster, otherwise letting it escape would be a small matter, and I don't know how many innocent people would lose their lives because of it."
Nonota sighed, but his words and actions revealed a straightforward and heroic spirit, which easily gave people a good impression.
"It's nothing, I can understand."
Shinji replied dryly, without much sincerity.
Not holding it against them?
How was that possible!
Did you ask my dog?
After noticing Shinji's attitude, Nonota smiled wryly, knowing that the two gatekeepers had still offended people, but he didn't take it too seriously.
After all, this was the Land of Wind, the base camp of their Sunagakure village.
Even if these two people were strong, so what?
They wouldn't dare to attack the people of their Sunagakure, would they?
They didn't want to live anymore!
So it was okay if they were dissatisfied.
Nonota didn't know that there was an animal called a husky, which was not afraid of anything, could chat with expressions, and could tear down houses.
There was nothing that Husky-dan didn't dare to do!
"Brother Nonota, everything has been taken care of over there, you should also clean up the wound and bandage it." Maki said with some worry.
Nonota smiled without caring, "Don't worry, I just took the antidote pill, which was specially formulated by Lady Chiyo, so nothing will happen."
After speaking, he looked at Shinji and Hidan, "I heard that you two are wandering ninjas? I happen to have a request here, and the reward is quite considerable."
"What request?"
"Escort us back to Sunagakure village."
Looking at the other party's sincere face, Shinji almost believed it.
Sure enough, thick eyebrows and big eyes were all fake honesty.
Where was this?
Land of Wind!
Sunagakure village's base camp!
Two Jōnin who were proficient in sealing techniques, leading a group of Chūnin and Genin, needed outsiders to escort them back to the village?
Anyone who wasn't brain-damaged wouldn't believe these nonsense.
Shinji could see that this guy was saying thank you to the two of them, but in reality, he must also have some doubts, suspecting the motives of the two of them appearing here, suspecting the identities of the two of them, and so on.
But because they had helped a lot just now, it was difficult to turn their faces.
So he came up with such a method, which could both monitor the two of them along the way, and give more rewards as thanks.
Once they arrived at Sunagakure village, it would be a matter of a word whether to knead them round or flatten them.
If it were an ordinary person, they might be sold and even pay the other party back.
Shinji naturally wouldn't be fooled, and directly refused.
"No need, I know you want to thank us in this way. But we two brothers never eat food that is given with contempt, it's an insult to us!"
It was just a show of acting skills, veteran actor Akagi Shinji was here!
"No, I don't mean that..."
"I understand, so we're not angry, we just hope you won't mention it again."
"You misunderstood, I..."
"I understand, you're indeed doing it for the good of us two brothers, but please forgive us for not being able to accept it."
You understand, you understand...
You understand my ass!
You understand jack shit!
Nonota cursed in his heart, his smile stiffened.
What was most depressing was that he couldn't even tell if this guy was sincere or just pretending not to know.
He had really met his match today!
"Uh, the reward is really generous, are you sure you don't want to consider it?"
"There's no need to say anymore, otherwise we won't even be friends."
Damn it!
Who was friends with you?
Somewhat tired, Nonota simply gave up and stopped persuading.
"Okay, I respect your thoughts. If you need any help in the future, you can go to Sunagakure village to find me."
"Yeah, definitely, definitely, next time, definitely!"
The two looked at each other with a lot of passion for a while, and then said goodbye reluctantly.
When they turned around, they both used their mouths to greet each other's family, very politely.
"Kōshō, Kōtsuki, you take two more people and follow them, keep an eye on them for me."
"Remember, if the two of them don't do anything out of the ordinary, don't act rashly."
"Although it's mainly surveillance, once you encounter an emergency and find that these two are going to do something that harms the village, you are allowed to take action immediately, life and death don't matter."
The two gatekeepers were as excited as a five-hundred-pound child after hearing Nonota's new instructions.
"We will definitely complete the mission!"
They actually wanted to say that sending just the two of them would be enough.
What if they were just two wandering ninjas, even if they had picked up a leak not long ago?
If they were in that position, they would be able to do the same thing unexpectedly.
At least that's what the two of them thought...
Kōshō, Kōtsuki, and two other Sunagakure ninjas quickly left quietly.
Maki seemed to think that doing so was not good, but Nonota was very calm, "I both thank them and have to be wary of them.
Right now, Lord Baki is leading a team to hunt down 'Sand Spirit', if something goes wrong, we will be responsible even if we die ten thousand times."
"I also hope that I'm just being paranoid, but the necessary investigation is still needed. If it is finally determined that their identities are not problematic, I will personally apologize to them."
After hearing this, Maki immediately showed an embarrassed expression, "I naturally believe in Brother Nonota, I was thinking too simply."
"No, your simplicity and kindness are the most beautiful qualities, it's just that this world is complicated."
Nonota raised his head and looked at the sky, his face was full of 'I have a story', just wondering who had wine.
