The Valley of Hypocrisy, in the forest outside.

From this place, you can just see the collapsing mountain.

The five of them, Kakuzu and Insect Man, were already waiting there, watching the spectacular sight of the mountain collapse together.

The place called the Valley of Hypocrisy has completely turned into a ruin and no longer exists.

"Before coming here, I never thought that the Valley of Hypocrisy was such a place."

The insect man sighed with emotion.

The villagers living inside are all defected ninjas, abandoning everything in the outside world, and using transformation skills to pretend to be another person and start a new life inside... It is simply self-deception.

It can only be said that these people are very pathetic if they deny their past lives in this way.

What's more, this kind of peace is still based on the influence of illusion, which makes it even more hypocritical.

"As long as there is war in this world, people who want to escape hell will still yearn for a place like this."

Tunan and the others looked at the collapsed mountain and felt inspired.

The people living here cannot be said to be incompetent, but they are exhausted just from surviving in this world.

They live alone in the world, and even though they live in the world, they feel that they are superfluous. Then, the Valley of Hypocrisy is their only refuge.

However, even if this peace is not broken by them, sooner or later someone else will.

There is no shame in escaping. The most rare thing for human beings is the courage to face difficulties.

"Compared with this, you should be more concerned about the loss of an elderly person like me. I have been running around for several days without rest for you. I have put down all debt collection work these days. How do you plan to compensate?"

Kakuzu interrupted in an incomprehensible manner.

"You never take a break, right?"

The insect man was a little speechless.

"Can that be the same?"

Kakuzu narrowed his eyes, flashing a dangerous light.

"I know, how about ten million taels?"

"If you think your life is only worth ten million taels, just pretend I didn't say it."

"..."

Why do you suddenly feel that Mr. Kakuzu is so much funnier?

Worm Man cares more about this issue than money.

At this time, Liuli came over and saw that nothing happened to Kakuzu and the insect man, so he nodded.

"This mission has been solved perfectly. When you act in the future, remember to be careful and don't fall into the enemy's trap easily again."

"yes."

The five Xuanyuan people responded at the same time, with serious expressions on their faces.

This trip to the Valley of Hypocrisy can be said to have made them realize that they are also seriously deficient in some aspects.

Even if they perform various bounty missions in the underground black market and fight against all kinds of enemies, there are still enemies in this world that make them helpless.

Compared to Jiraiya, one of the three ninjas they defeated, there were stronger ninjas.

The water in the ninja world is very deep, and one or two enemies as difficult as this time will pop up somewhere.

"Let's go."

Liuli turned back and took a deep look at the collapsed mountain. The unknown village chief was crushed under the mountain.

It's impossible to survive in that situation.

The unknown village chief lost all his important people due to the war, and his life has no meaning.

His life had already ended when he determined to build the Valley of Hypocrisy.

What she fought with before was just the false personality created by the nameless village chief decades ago.

Therefore, for him, death is the real relief.

This is a bad time, and the Promised Land does not exist.

Only with strength can you protect everything you cherish.

Fear and fear are the most meaningless things.

When Liuli and the others left, the villagers of the Valley of Hypocrisy not far away did not step forward to stop them. They just stared at the collapsed valley with complicated and sad expressions.

But no one said a word. The unknown village chief used illusions to affect their self-awareness. They understood this.

Even so, they are still willing to return to live in this fake village.

"Let's build a new one."

So, after a long silence, someone spoke.

This sentence infected other people, and they all nodded and agreed.

They can no longer live in the real world.

Their consciousness has surrendered to that falsehood.

Therefore, even if the peace is disguised and the illusion of peace is used to paralyze oneself, one does not want to return to the real ninja world.

But they all understand that they are just going from one hell to another hell.

They are all ninjas, mastering all kinds of ninjutsu, they just need to open up a new valley of hypocrisy.

But among them, there was a child who did not act. Instead, he stared at Liuli and others who had left the Valley of Hypocrisy with an almost resentful look, as if he wanted to keep their figures firmly in his heart.

.

It was this group of people who destroyed their home.

Let them breathe the dirty and ugly air of the outside world...

Obviously they just want to live an ordinary life, why should they be treated like this?

In other words, it is just rejection and jealousy of outsiders.

Why do they see the peace and beauty here, but they don’t agree with it at all, and instead continue to return to reality. Isn’t the peace here worthy of their cherishment and nostalgia?

The seeds of hatred were engraved in the child's heart.

"Nagato-sama, the Valley of Hypocrisy seems to have been destroyed..."

It was three hours later when Bai Zetsu brought Nagato to the Valley of Hypocrisy.

What they saw here were the villagers who were working hard to rebuild the Valley of Hypocrisy.

This time they did not plan to build a village halfway up the mountain, but began to expand a peaceful paradise underground.

The original valley of hypocrisy has completely collapsed and no longer exists.

"..."

Nagato, who took in all this, also watched the scene in front of him silently.

Without saying much, Nagato turned around and planned to leave.

Suddenly at this moment, a childish voice came to my ears:

"Are you also here to destroy the peace of the Valley of Hypocrisy?"

This sentence made Nagato stop. The speaker was a boy about ten years old, standing under the shade of a tree, staring straight at Nagato, and asked this question.

Nagato also looked at this child, he must be a child from the Valley of Hypocrisy.

However, he heard that the Valley of Hypocrisy was a place where defected ninjas gathered. This child did not use the transformation technique, which meant that this was his appearance.

But here's the strange thing.

This child, who may not even be ten years old, has quite a lot of chakra in his body.

His strength may be stronger than most of the villagers working there.

The most important thing is that this child has seen blood, and may have even killed people with his own hands, many of them.

Those eyes that are indifferent to the world are not those of ordinary children who are ignorant of the world.

Nagato shook his head and replied: "No, I'm here to find the village chief here, but it seems that the Valley of Hypocrisy has been destroyed."

"Looking for the village chief?"

The child pointed to the ruins of the original Valley of Hypocrisy and said, "The village chief was buried there, and he must be dead now."

When he said this, his face was a little ferocious and twisted.

But then calm returned.

"Really... That's really a pity. I originally came to see him for something, but since he is dead, let's give it up."
