Iwata Genichiro looked at Kakashi apologetically. He was afraid that his retainer had something urgent to attend to, so he immediately shouted,"Come in!"
The door creaked as it was pulled open. A middle-aged man in a kimono hurriedly handed a letter and a handful of Kunai to Iwata Genichiro. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and his hands trembled slightly. He said,"Patriarch, I got this letter and Kunai when I was patrolling outside…A figure floated past, and before I could react, Kunai was nailed to the wooden board behind me.”
Iwata Genichiro was so rich that he had no choice but to bring his retainers with him to protect his life and property. As long as they went out to discuss business, they had to bring at least three teams of people with them, protecting them from the front, middle, and back. And this middle-aged retainer who presented the letter was definitely a first-class expert among his guards!
However, the middle-aged retainer did not notice that someone was watching him in the dark. It was only when the other party made a move that the middle-aged retainer reacted. If the other party wanted to, he would probably have already died.
"Quickly give it to me, quickly give it to me. Is there any news about Ji Xiu?!”Iwata Genichiro hurriedly went to receive the letter.
You Xia happened to look up and saw the Kuai in the middle-aged retainer's hand. There were many wood chips near the handle. Although there were few, there were indeed some.
To be able to pierce through the bitterness to the end, either the other party was powerful enough, or he had added an attribute chakra to the bitterness. Just like Asma's Chakra Knife, the Wind Evasion Chakra was infused into it to make it so sharp that it could easily pierce through stones.
In any case, since the other party dared to swagger into the Woodleaf Village to deliver the blackmail letter, one thing was certain: The other party was definitely an expert.
The huge Woodleaf Village had actually been invaded without a sound. This was really unbelievable. Even if it was Orochimaru, it would take a long time to set up, right?
Seeing that no one noticed this detail, he pretended to point at the Kunai in the retainer's hand unintentionally. You Xia let out a soft "huh" and asked curiously,"Uncle, did you spend a lot of effort to take that Kunai off the wooden door? There's so much sawdust!"
The middle-aged retainer, who was scared to death, was stunned for a moment. Then, he looked at You Xia and nodded, saying with a bitter smile,"That strength, if it wasn't to prevent the letter from being destroyed, I reckon that it could have directly pierced through the wooden board. The opponent's strength is far above mine. If he wanted to kill me…I'd probably be dead by now…"
Kakashi, Kel, and Red Bean couldn't help but glance at each other. The situation seemed to have exceeded their expectations.
Rubbing her chin, Red Bean frowned and said,"I suspect that the other party is very likely to be a gang. One was delivering the letter, and another was watching Yoshihide Iwata.”
As she spoke, Red Bean suddenly stood up and patted You Xia's shoulder. Her face darkened as she said,"You Xia, you follow Kakashi. I'll go to Flame Shadow Tower to report this matter.”
To be able to sneak into the village without making a sound within Mu Ye's protective barrier, the other party was definitely a dangerous person.
You Xia nodded." Sister Red Bean, you go ahead. I'll listen to Senior Kakashi."”
After instructing Kakashi, Mitarai Washing Red Bean immediately ran towards Naruto Tower at her fastest speed.
As for Iwata Genichiro, he saw that the situation was a little serious, so he calmed down and did not say anything. As soon as Red Bean left, he immediately took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped the sweat off his forehead. As if he had relaxed, he said,"Good, good. My son is fine, my son is fine.”
After taking the Kuai from the middle-aged retainer, Iwata Genichiro said,""Go wait outside first. I'll call you later if there's anything.”
"Yes, Patriarch!"
After the middle-aged retainer left, Iwata Genichiro directly handed the entire letter to Kakashi and said,"Mr. Kakashi, take a look.”
After receiving the letter, Kakashi quickly scanned through it, then passed it to You Xia, who was sitting a seat away. After a round, it returned to Iwata's hands. Everyone understood the situation now.
Slightly excited, Iwata Genichiro pointed at the letter and said,""The letter said that Ji Xiu was kidnapped. The kidnappers seemed to be here for my money. That's great, that's great. If that's the case, my son is still alive…"
Kakashi nodded and pondered for a moment before saying,"Since the other party is here for money, but he didn't go directly to Iwata Sensei and instead targeted your son, it means that his actions are more or less inconvenient. Since that was the case, he would not touch the noble young master before seeing the ransom.”
Kel rubbed his chin and said,"I think so too…"
" That's good, that's good…" Iwata Genichiro let out a long sigh of relief. He took out a handkerchief again and wiped the large beads of sweat on his forehead. Then, he suddenly leaned forward and held Kakashi's right hand tightly."Mr. Kakashi, I know who you are!!”
Kakashi was speechless.
Kel was speechless.
You Xia and Xiao Li were speechless.
Kakashi used his left hand to push Iwata Genichiro's face away. He was about to squeeze into Iwata Genichiro's face when Kakashi said helplessly,""Iwata…Iwata san, let's talk things out! Please let me go, Iwata…"
As if realizing that his actions were inappropriate, Iwata Genichiro awkwardly loosened his grip on Kakashi. He cleared his throat, picked up the teacup on the coffee table, and took a small sip. Then…then the tea in the teacup was gone.
Drinking tea was a very elegant act, but for some reason, when Iwata Genichiro did it, it had a funny magic. Fortunately, Red Bean wasn't here. Otherwise, she would have started complaining again.
As the clone ninja of Kiba Village, Kakashi was famous in the Five Great Countries. Iwata Genichiro had heard a lot about his deeds, so when he saw that the person who accepted the mission was Kakashi, he heaved a sigh of relief. Kakashi used to be a bodyguard for a daimyo in a small country. He had a lot of business in that country and was friends with the daimyo.
Suddenly, Iwata Genichiro extended a finger at the four of them and said very seriously,""Mr. Kakashi, as long as you can successfully rescue Jixiu, I will give you a separate portion of the commission! I know that the village takes a commission when they accept missions. Let's not let that strange old man earn the difference!”
You Xia's eyelids twitched. That strange old man should be talking about the Flying Ape Sun Slash…She had to admit that this Iwata Genichiro was really rich.
