“We’re finally here.”

Kikuchi looked at the slightly desolate Shinobi Village against a huge mountain wall a few hundred meters away, but his expression could not be said to be very relaxed.

After all, the cost for acquiring iron ore in the Iron City has risen due to competition from the other merchants. If the cost in the Craftsmen Shinobi Village also rises, then he will only be able to make a small profit this time.

Approaching the Craftsmen Shinobi Village, Kanpū also dismissed the shadow clone that was exploring the road ahead, and then stood together Yui, Shisui, Shikuro, and Kikuchi after disguising, forming a family that loved each other.

Although at present, it seems that the Craftsmen Shinobi Village has not been affected by the war, there must still be some vigilance.

“Caw caw!”

In the sky, Shisui’s crow cry and dived down, then flapped its wings a few times and landed firmly on Shisui’s shoulder.

Shisui turned his head to the side and opened his mouth slightly, as if communicating with the crow.

Kanpū watched from beside him with interest and asked: “Shisui, what are you telling your bird?”

Shisui showed a confident smile and said: “It is reporting to me what it has seen.”

“Really? Shisui, your bird is amazing!” Kanpū gave a thumbs up, and praised sincerely.

“Hey!!”

Suddenly, the crow stopped on Shisui’s shoulder flapped its wings at Kanpū with excitement, and a few black feathers were thrown onto Kanpū’s face at that time.

“I’m going…” Kanpū subconsciously reached out to catch the bird.

“Caw caw!”

The crow cries twice, lightly dodging Kanpū’s perverted hand, and flew to Shisui’s other shoulder.

“Kanpū, it said that what you just said was malicious…” Shisui looked at Kanpū faintly.

“Nonsense!”

Kanpū was furious, “Shisui, your bird is jealous because I have such a good relationship with you, and it even trying to sow dissension between us, all crows in the world are indeed black!”

“Really?”

Shisui looked at him suspiciously.

While speaking, the group of five have arrived at the gate of the Craftsmen Shinobi Village.

Kanpū and Shisui stopped talking immediately.

At the entrance of the village, there are two young Shinobi wearing a Craftsmen Shinobi Village’s headband, but both of them were a little lazy and didn’t pay much attention to Kanpū and the others’ arrival, and let them enter the Craftsmen Shinobi Village easily.

‘This is another village far away from the war.’

Kanpū thought.

“Shikuro-sensei, Kikuchi-san, where are we going next? Shall we go directly to the craftsmen to make the Ninja Tools?”

Kanpū turned his head and asked.

“We should find an inn first.”

Shikuro said thoughtfully, “It takes time to make the Ninja Tools, so we may have to live here for a few days.”

Kikuchi hurriedly said: “According to the efficiency of the Craftsmen Shinobi Village, it will take up to three days at most to complete it. I will take care of the accommodation expenses for these few days!”

Shikuro nodded and did not refuse.

Beside him, Kanpū turned his head to look at Shisui, and whispered: “Shisui, let your bird find an inn.”

“Caw caw!”

The crow flapped its wings and yelled at Kanpū.

This time, without Shisui’s translation, Kanpū knew that the bird must be speaking ill about himself again.

“Listen, Shisui, listen, it’s talking… cough, is it saying bad things about me again? Is it trying to instigate the pure friendship between us again?” The wicked Kanpū complained first.

Shisui reached out and stroked the black hair of the crow, then looked at Kanpū with a wry smile, and said: “Kanpū, don’t bully it anymore.”

Kanpū is about to continue speaking, but out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly saw a Ninja Tool shop on the side of the street. The walls inside were covered with Katana that flicker with cold light.

He turned his head and looked around, only to find that one side of the street was actually full of Ninja Tool shops!

Swords, kunai, shuriken, senbon, Kanpū even saw nunchakus. Apart from this, there are other strange-shaped Ninja Tools, huge shuriken, knife that is similar to Asuma’s Chakra blades, whip-like swords, small twin swords, and even many Samurai armors, all in great shape!

Under the sun, all of these Ninja Tools is reflecting dark luster, which looked very cold. At first glance, they look like they are made of fine iron, which is very valuable!

As Kanpū walked and watched, his eyes were almost blinded by those Ninja Tools, and the small sum of six hundred thousand ryō in his wallet have begun to stir.

“The Ninja Tools here are all made by the craftsmen of the Craftsmen Shinobi Village. The quality is better than the outside, but the price is also more expensive than the outside.”

Not only did Kikuchi has high EQ, he is also very ‘sensitive’ towards Kanpū and the other two Genin. As long as they show a slightly strange expression, he will become the incarnation of a kind uncle.

A thought suddenly flashed through Kanpū’s mind, then he turned his head and asked: “Kikuchi-san, if I ask the craftsmen to build a sword for me alone, what is the approximate price?”

Kikuchi answered: “The price of a single-made sword will definitely be higher than that of the sword in the Ninja Tool shop. As for the exact price, I don’t know.”

“Kikuchi-san, please bear with me, is it expensive to make the Ninja Tools you wanted?” Kanpū asked.

Kikuchi shook his head and said: “Because I bring my own materials, and the Ninja Tools I want to make is also the simplest kunai and shuriken, the price of hiring a craftsman won’t be very high.”

“I see.” Kanpū nodded slightly, and then a thought flashed through his mind again.

‘The ability of Craftsmen Shinobi Village’s craftsmen to create Ninja Tools… is it possible to collect it?’

“Shikuro-sensei, Kikuchi-san, Kanpū, Yui, I want to buy a few kunai and shuriken first.”

Shisui suddenly said, “You can go first, I will follow up later!”

Although he is not interested in swords and so on, he still has a soft spot for kunai and shuriken.

Now that he comes to the Craftsmen Shinobi Village and see so many excellent Ninja Tools, how can he bear it?

Shikuro casually released a few insects and said: “Be careful!”

“Yes.”

Shisui waited for Shikuro’s insects to climb onto his clothes before turning around and walked towards a Ninja Tool shop next to him.

“Kanpū, you aren’t going too?” Shikuro suddenly asked.

Kanpū coughed dryly, and said: “Shikuro-sensei, I want to meet the craftsmen of the Craftsmen Shinobi Village first. If possible, I’d like to hire them to make a sword for me.”

Kikuchi smiled and said: “I will hire the Craftsmen Shinobu later, when the time comes, Kanpū, you can follow me.”

“Thank you Kikuchi-san!”

Kanpū hurriedly thanked him.

It didn’t take long for Kanpū’s group of four to find an inn on the street not far away. After checking in, Kikuchi took two scrolls and left with Kanpū.

Although the Craftsmen Shinobi Village is not big, there are many people here, coming and going, and it is quite lively.

Among them, there are also many Shinobi from Great Countries, but these Shinobi have employers, so if they met each other on the street, they will just take it as if they didn’t meet.

Kanpū followed behind Kikuchi, and the two walked across the street and soon arrived at the center of the Craftsmen Shinobi Village, a huge building.

“This is the place.”

Kikuchi turned his head and explained to Kanpū in a low voice, “This is the place where Craftsmen Shinobi works, just like the Hokage Tower in our village.”

“Kikuchi-san, let’s go in now!”

Kanpū can’t wait.
