Chapter 372: Four and Five Tails Successfully Captured
Actually, the location of this Goblin nest was discovered on the way when they were attacked by bandits.
Not long after it was discovered, they were attacked by those bandits.
Perhaps the Goblin Slayer might encounter those bandits if he goes there?
The Knight Captain didn't linger; after stating the Goblin nest's location, he led his men back to Al Pacino.
He also didn't know the location of the bandits' lair, and it was impossible to search all over the mountains. Even if he found it, what then?
What if the bandits didn't let them off this time and killed them?
Surviving the last encounter with the bandits was truly an act of God.
Honestly, the Knight Captain really didn't want to see those bandits again.
Those bandits weren't just for show; they genuinely killed people. He could feel the killing intent radiating from them, and it wasn't fake.
The Knight Captain led his subordinates back to Al Pacino, and after delivering the bad news to the noble Lord Edel, he was predictably fired by an enraged Edel.
The Knight Captain had anticipated this and wasn't surprised. He packed his belongings with his men and left.
Meanwhile, the Goblin Slayer, Priestess, and Hyuga Shiro trio also arrived at the Goblin nest described by the Knight Captain.
"The footprints at the cave entrance are very fresh," the Goblin Slayer said, observing the entrance of the Goblin nest.
"Shall we go in?"
Hyuga Shiro said.
"Use your technique to go in and see if the Goblins are inside. If they've gone out to forage, we can set traps at the entrance and wait for them to return."
As soon as Goblins were mentioned, the Goblin Slayer's taciturn nature seemed to vanish.
"Alright."
Hyuga Shiro formed hand signs and performed the Clone Technique, sending his clone into the cave to scout ahead.
He didn't know the Shadow Clone Technique. Although his previous self was from the Hyuga Clan, the Hyuga Clan had main and branch families, and the clan resources they received were vastly different.
His previous self's father was merely a Chunin, completely unable to access high-level Ninjutsu like the Shadow Clone Technique.
However, for now, a basic Ninjutsu like the Clone Technique was sufficient.
He only needed to scout, nothing else.
Twenty minutes later.
The Goblin Slayer, Priestess, and Hyuga Shiro emerged from the cave.
The Goblin Slayer shook the blood from his short sword. "You two worked hard. Let's head back to Al Pacino."
Hyuga Shiro used his clone to scout and discovered the Goblins inside. Afterward, the trio pushed into the cave, spending twenty minutes to eliminate all the Goblins inside, even the newborn Goblin pups were wiped out.
The trio returned in the direction of Al Pacino.
Upon reaching the ranch, the Goblin Slayer bid farewell to the Priestess and Hyuga Shiro, and was welcomed back into the ranch by the Cow Girl.
The Priestess and Hyuga Shiro continued onward. After entering Al Pacino, the two didn't separate and arrived at an inn.
This inn was precisely where Hyuga Shiro had stayed before. Later, with the help of the front desk lady, Sherri, he connected with the Goblin Slayer, and after meeting the Priestess, he also invited her to stay at the same inn he was staying at. After all, it was very close to the Adventurer's Guild, and since they were now a team working together, it was convenient for meeting up.
As usual, the two had a meal at the inn, said goodnight, and returned to their respective rooms.
Although Hyuga Shiro had met the Priestess, their relationship hadn't progressed further. Primarily, Hyuga Shiro's flirting skills were mediocre, and additionally, the Priestess's heart belonged to the Goblin Slayer, as he was her savior.
Hyuga Shiro practiced Chakra extraction for two hours as usual, then lay on his bed, lost in thought.
He had been in the Goblin Slayer's world for some time now, yet he hadn't managed to charm a single girl. This was truly a disgrace for a transmigrator.
While Hyuga Shiro was troubled, on the other side, Fugaku had finally completed the main mission in the Charlotte world and could finally return.
Initially, he had been quite looking forward to the Charlotte world, but it was a bit too boring, and there were too many things to do, constantly running around every day, which was very troublesome.
So Fugaku decisively completed the main mission and escaped from the Charlotte world.
Because he hadn't completed many tasks in the Charlotte world, he only earned 500 anime points.
Fugaku took off his gaming helmet and checked his game panel; his current anime points were 1600.
Basically, he broke even.
After finishing his playthrough of the Charlotte world this time, Fugaku didn't continue to the next anime world for quite a while, becoming obsessed with farming games.
He played for a whole month.
A month later, when Fugaku grew tired of gaming and was about to put on his gaming helmet, the Konoha Intelligence Division unexpectedly found the whereabouts of Roshi, the Four-Tails Jinchuriki.
Roshi had left Iwagakure long ago due to disagreements with Ōnoki and had become a wandering monk traveling the world.
The Intelligence Division was lucky to discover Roshi's whereabouts.
Fugaku, of course, immediately set off to prevent Roshi from escaping.
Fortunately, Fugaku departed immediately after hearing the news and arrived in time; otherwise, Roshi really would have slipped away.
After easily capturing Roshi, he was also interrogated with Genjutsu to see if he knew the whereabouts of the Five-Tails Jinchuriki.
Unexpectedly, Roshi actually knew the Five-Tails' whereabouts. After all, both of them were from Iwagakure and enjoyed wandering outside.
The Five-Tails Jinchuriki's name was Han, and he was known as the Steam Ninja.
After the Third Shinobi World War ended, he followed Roshi's example and left Iwagakure.
Of course, it wasn't a defection; he just wanted to travel around and see the various sights of the Ninja World.
As both he and Roshi were Jinchuriki from Iwagakure, they naturally had contact with each other.
"So, he's in the Land of Waves."
Fugaku smiled slightly. This trip was a buy-one-get-one-free deal, which was really good.
After knocking Roshi unconscious, he threw him into the Kamui Dimension, then his Complete Body Susanoo flew at full speed towards the Land of Waves.
Upon arriving in the Land of Waves, he followed the address in their letters and successfully found the temple where Han was temporarily staying.
According to their letters, this temple was recommended to Han by Roshi, suggesting he stay there for a period. Unexpectedly, it ended up benefiting Fugaku.
After all, neither of them could have imagined that someone in the Ninja World would dare to target two Jinchuriki like them.
The result was that Han was easily captured by Fugaku. On this trip, both Tailed Beasts from Iwagakure fell into Fugaku's hands.
At this point, out of the nine Tailed Beasts, only the Three-Tails, far out in the ocean, remained uncaptured; all the others had been collected.
However, Hidden Mist Village was truly good at hiding. The ocean is so vast, and it's quite difficult to find Hidden Mist Village's whereabouts. Fugaku wasn't anxious about this; it was still early, only the end of Konoha Year 58.
There was still a long time until Ōtsutsuki came to cause trouble in the Ninja World. With the gaming helmet, he could completely become even stronger during this period.
Fugaku returned to Konoha Village without stopping, rested for two days, then put on his gaming helmet, ready to make money in the anime world.
