Bab 266: **Chapter 266: Interrogation Result, Black Market!**
After hearing what the other party said, Reiki stopped what he was doing, disappointed.
"Alright, tell me."
"What's your name, and which organization are you from?"
"Why did you attack us?"
"Also, you must have specifically come here to ambush us, right?"
"Where did the information come from?"
Reiki asked a series of questions directly.
Nozuki held the hammer, eager to act. She was excited to engage in the core interrogation process.
"My name is Feng, and I'm not a ninja from any village."
"I'm a mercenary ninja."
Feng no longer wanted to resist. As for rules and guidelines? To hell with them! His priority now was survival, not principles.
"A mercenary ninja?"
"In other words, you attacked us after accepting a mission?"
"Where did you receive the mission?"
Reiki pressed on.
Nozuki stood to the side, jotting down Feng's answers in a small notebook.
"The black market!"
"As for the person offering the reward, I don't know."
"The black market?!"
Reiki was momentarily stunned. In his memory, such an organization did exist in the ninja world. What he knew before related to the money exchange, but calling it the black market seemed more fitting.
"You five attacked us after accepting a black market mission?"
"And, based on what you said, you all know each other, right?"
Reiki questioned further.
"Yes."
"We know each other. After all, we're all people who live on the edge of a knife in the ninja world."
"I've answered your questions. Now kill me!"
Feng nodded, surrendering to despair. He just wanted it all to end.
"Why would I kill you?"
"Your lives must be listed on the black market, right?"
"I should be able to exchange you for a bounty. That sounds like a good deal."
Reiki smirked.
"We can give you money!" the other five shouted in unison, desperate to buy their freedom.
"I don't know how much your bounties are. Show me your reward orders."
Reiki looked at them playfully.
"My bounty is 2,500 million taels. Here's my order."
"And mine, 2,300 million taels."
Even though their chakra and movements were sealed, they managed to pull out their reward orders.
Seeing the amounts, Reiki nodded, satisfied. While he hadn't yet used his full interrogation method, he was sure the information was accurate.
"Alright, let me confirm your information."
Reiki placed his hands on Feng and pulled out his soul. The others only saw Feng's expression go blank; they weren't perceptive enough to sense a soul's presence.
Reiki quickly confirmed the mission details. The ambush was indeed due to a black market commission. However, the identities were surprising. Feng wasn't a rogue ninja; even his name was false. His real name was Fuichi, an elite Jonin from Iwagakure Village.
These people were skilled at deception. Not only did they take village assignments, but they also accepted black market missions, showing an incredible drive for money.
Reiki also gathered more details: the black market wasn't just for money exchange. It hosted trades of all kinds, even people, and sold intelligence. If they couldn't provide information, they compensated the buyer.
Reiki pondered the enormity of such an underground organization. Who could establish something so massive?
Withdrawing his hands, he thought deeply.
"Give me the money. You have 2,300 million taels."
"And hand over everything in your storage scrolls."
"What are you staring at? Glaring at me will cost you your ninja tools."
Nozuki had already started collecting the money. The feeling of gaining valuable intel and resources was quite satisfying.
"Nozuki, what are you doing?"
Reiki turned to see six ninjas stripped of everything but their pants, looking mortified.
"I wanted to make sure they weren't hiding anything," Nozuki explained.
Reiki sighed and covered his eyes. "Alright, give them back their clothes. This is too much."
Reluctantly, Nozuki handed the clothes back.
Reiki resumed questioning the remaining five. With Feng's fate as a warning, they quickly provided all the information they could, though they had lied about their identities.
Reiki understood enough and noted down their names and affiliations:
- Feng – Real Name: Fuichi, Iwagakure Village.
- Pi – Real Name: Kurosawa Dai, Takigakure Village.
- Youshi – Real Name: Stiqi, Kumogakure Village.
The six were indeed from different villages. Thankfully, none were from Konoha. But Reiki suspected that Konoha ninjas might be involved in similar activities. The village's mission payments alone might not be enough to support a lavish lifestyle, and some would seek extra income.
"Reiki... help us..."
A voice called from the distance as Reiki organized his notes.
"Huh?"
"Brother Minato?"
Reiki extended his senses and immediately located Minato. He also noticed that Minato and his group appeared as red marks on his scan.
A fight? But there was no sign of other intruders...
