Half a day later, Hanzaki rushed to Inaba Port in a hurry and met the big benefactor who had been waiting for a long time.
"I thought it would take at least a day and a night to arrive. How come it's so fast?"
"There is a cash escort commission on Tuanzhu Street, and we happened to be negotiating nearby."
"That's really a coincidence."
Major Governor Gushan smiled noncommittally and said,
"Your business is getting bigger and bigger, and there are people in the Fire Country who dare to give you a lot of money."
"Originally it was not possible, but some people wanted to build a relationship for the sake of the young master."
"That's not surprising."
In fact, Gushan Bu Shui did not provide a credit guarantee for the Star Ninja Village at all. Many people with good hands and eyes knew that this was a semi-independent ninja village supported by the Gushan family, so they also wanted to get close.
The Gushan family has a great business and cannot be relied upon, so it will be much easier for the Feng Mo family. Although there is a high probability that it will have no effect, it is still a good thing if Gushan Bu Shui's name is known.
No, the name of a gambling boss with a bit of charlatanism, a "financial company" with a good reputation and a "debt collection company" with a decent bottom line, fell into the ears of Gushan Bushui.
Although there is no benefit, if there is any use, I can't help but think of them.
There are countless noisy individuals or forces around them every day who want to gain a sense of presence. How can the aloof young master Gushan have the time to deal with them one by one?
"If you are robbed, don't expect me to tell you the truth. Just do your own thing to pay off the debt."
"You are joking, how could such a trivial matter pollute your ears? If I hadn't inquired by chance, I wouldn't have wasted your time."
Hanzaki humbly said,
"We have also assessed the risk, and there is a high probability that it will be fine. We have also sent out the elite of the clan, so petty thieves dare not reach out. If there is a big thief who wants to rob the dart, then it will not be a problem for the small 'Star Ninja Village'."
"You... are fine."
To be favored by Gushan Bushui, he still has some cleverness. Being able to recognize one's own status and strength and earn remuneration within one's ability is indeed a bit discerning.
Star Ninja Village can handle some small things by itself. This is also the position given to them by Gushan Bushui. They are scavengers and unconventional low-level tasks, as well as areas that mainstream ninjas disdain. They slowly expand their influence and finally gain a firm foothold. If trouble really comes to the fore, the Feng Mo clan can't handle it, and they still have to have a backer behind them to come forward.
Don't look down on these little people who do the dirty work. In many cases, it is they who hold up half of the market.
The five major ninja villages remain standing because of the explosion of genius and the competition of comprehensive strength. The basis for a newly built small force like the Star Ninja Village to be able to have both sides is to build relationships and build circles. It is like a lubricant, traveling around all parties and working piecemeal. , accumulate less and make more, slowly accumulate reputation and reputation, and then lay a solid foundation.
How to borrow the name of the Fusagi family without really dragging down the financial backers is a technical job. In the past three years, Hanzaki has been very good at finding a way to make a living by leading a group of ragtag tribesmen. The little leader.
"Now, we have some savings, all thanks to you."
Hanzaki asked tentatively,
"Lan's matter has always been a thorn in our hearts..."
"That's why I called you here this time..."
Under Hanzaki's concerned gaze, Gusugi Bushui said slowly,
"He is still alive, but not in a good condition. I had a chat with him. If the so-called genius you are boasting about is truly genuine, his life will not be in danger for a while. However, it is hard to say for others. You have to do it. Be mentally prepared..."
"My subordinate understands."
The mixed news made Hansaki feel mixed.
It was not just Arashi who followed Orochimaru into the Sound Ninja Village. The Fuuma clan also gathered a group of decent talents and followed him there. At that time, Orochimaru's defection had not been long ago, and his notoriety was not as loud as it is now. The sign of "Sannin" was still very bright. In the entire ninja world, there were many young people who believed that their talents were not recognized and were willing to follow him to "do great things".
The crumbling Fuuma clan tried to support Orochimaru by selling everything for a bright future. However, it backfired and the whole family was almost brought down. If it hadn't been for the help of Gusugi Bushui, I don't know how many years it would have been able to survive. .
Most of the investment was completely wasted, but at least there is still one of the most talented Lan alive.
This is what small forces with little foundation are like. One or two passable geniuses can keep them alive for decades.
Of course, the current Fuuma clan is not unable to survive without Lan, but no one can have too many of their own "geniuses".
"An Anxin develops in the Star Ninja Village. What happened in Tian Country should be a lesson. If you don't recognize your own status and hope for earnings beyond the ordinary, this is the end."
This is also a warning to Hansaki that if you want to reach the sky in one step, there is no chance, but you should also think about whether you have the ability to catch the pie that falls from the sky.
"Don't worry, young master, the tribesmen who have settled in the Bear Country no longer want to live a wandering life."
Although there are more mosquitoes and the climate is a bit humid, the Wind Demon clan, which has been active in the northern country for a long time, does not like the climate of the southern peninsula. However, compared with the precarious wandering life, this small trouble is not at the same level.
"I just don't know if Lan will come back alive."
"There is always hope, and it depends on your own efforts. Orochimaru is not an ordinary rebellious ninja, and even our Fusagi family will not provoke him at will. Providing a little help from the side is the limit. If you want to get rid of the shackles of the Sound Ninja Village , regaining freedom is not something that can be achieved simply.”
"That's enough..."
The help from the superiors comes at a price. Hansaki understands that Gushan Bushui is not making conditions, but that the current Fuma clan really has no value for people to take a high look.
After encouraging Hansaki a few words and sending him away, Kosugi Fusui called over Kaguya Kimimaro, who had been practicing taijutsu.
Looking at the young man who was about to leave childhood and enter adolescence, Gu Shan Bu Shui nodded with satisfaction.
Even though he still looks a little immature, the chilling temperament on his cold face is already very strong, and the toughness in his body runs through his bones, and he has an innate sense of fierceness.
"How are you feeling lately?"
"Teacher Akira is indeed a master who is very knowledgeable in physical arts. I feel that the gains are not small, but..."
Kimimaro, who seemed to have never learned how to express euphemistically, commented directly,
"That's the limit of a mediocre person's efforts. His practice method is not suitable for people without talent, as his three incompetent sons are proof. The criss-cross method seems to be an extremely efficient killing technique. There seems to be not enough real genius..."
In other words, the range of disciples that Ryuudouin Akira is suitable for teaching is limited to a group of people who are somewhat talented but not very talented. He is an excellent teacher who can bridge the gap between the past and the future, but he cannot cultivate true disciples. The top physical martial arts master.
"The talents among ordinary people are not suitable for real geniuses...?"
Gushan Bushui, who was talking to himself, fell silent.
In fact, not only Ryutangin Akira, but also Gushan Bu Shui's talent is at this level. If he doesn't have the experience of a time traveler, or his identity is not the powerful Major Governor Gushan, there is no way to erase it. Close the gap between yourself and genius.
Every time he uses the power of Umibozu's natural spirit, wears the skin of the god of rivers, and fights with those top masters and amazing geniuses, the chakra consumed is second to none, and the disposable "material" is used. It's not something ordinary people can afford.
How magical the "money ability" is depends entirely on the user's knowledge. It just so happens that Gu Shan Bu Shui is a time traveler who is very good at taking advantage of it.
From Kaguya Kimimaro's words, Kosugi Fusui can clearly understand that Ryuudouin Akira's skills have been almost learned by him. If he wants to improve his strength more quickly, he must find someone A more powerful martial arts master will guide you.
"I... now I truly understand why Uchiha Sasuke in the original timeline abandoned Kakashi Hatake and desperately went to find Orochimaru. 』
As a "copy ninja", the famous "Konoha Technician" is certainly not without lessons. The thunder escape stimulates the body cells to increase the reaction speed, and the infinite potential of the ninjutsu Chidori provide support for Uchiha Sasuke to become stronger in the future. foundation.
However, how to give the young tiger the "wings" to fly into the sky, it still had to be done by a master like Orochimaru who had truly seen the power of the top of the ninja world. At that time, Kakashi Hatake was still a lot behind.
Now, Kaguya Kimimaro has encountered a similar problem. He is indeed a genuine physical genius, so he must have a worthy teacher. Ryuudouin Akira can only make a temporary cameo to fully inspire To reveal Kaguya Kimimaro's potential, he still has to find a stronger teacher.
"I can't find a more powerful and pure Taijutsu master than Ryuudouin Akira under my command. Moreover, the Kaguya clan has disappeared, and there will never be a ninja in the ninja world who is better at using corpse veins than you. So, everything has to be up to you. But..."
After Gu Shan Bu Shui paused, he continued,
"As the saying goes, 'There is a certain order of learning, and there is a specialization in the art', even if the ninja is not as strong as you, there are more or less advantages worth learning from. If you are really smart enough, you can learn from the advantages of your opponent. If things go on like this, you will inevitably Can become stronger.”
"I...may not be able to do it."
Kaguya Kimimaro said honestly,
"The Kaguya clan is not a smart person, and I don't have a good brain either. I can go further in taijutsu by relying solely on instinct and talent. Actual combat is useful for improving my strength, but it is not decisive. effect."
】
"I know, so I arranged a helper for you."
After saying that, Gushan Bushui clapped his hands, and a child with short purple hair and ears walked in. He had a well-proportioned figure, a delicate face, and pink makeup. Only his eyes were glowing red.
Seeing the child who was a little taller than his knees, Kaguya Kimimaro frowned involuntarily. When he noticed the pair of red holes, he became even more confused.
"Left eye Sharingan, right eye red eye, Sharingan's dynamic vision, insight, copying and illusion rebound will not be mentioned much. The red eye's insight and perception ability is almost comparable to that of the Byakugan, and more importantly, it has chakra Induction, the deception function of illusion, the more sensitive the ninja, the more powerful it will be restrained. His name is Ranmaru, and he is your best helper..."
Even idiots like Black Hoe Raiga, who are not very smart, can do tricks with the help of Ranmaru. Kaguya Kimimaro has such a powerful assistant to help him check for mistakes and improve his strength. It couldn't be better for sure.
"I can't give you a better instructor than Akira-sensei, so preparing a strong helper for you is the limit."
"Young Master, I'm serious. I don't mean to complain. Kimimaro wants to improve his strength to relieve Young Master's worries, not to cause trouble for you."
"I understand what you mean, and I don't doubt your loyalty. However, as a master, I must respond to the expectations of my subordinates. Otherwise, wouldn't it appear that I am too incompetent?"
While they were talking, two children, a boy and a girl, who were about the same age as Kaguya Kimimaro, came in and knelt down on one knee, waiting for the master's order.
"This is Toudo Kasumi and Kusanagi Kyo. You have already met Kyo's father Shiba Fune, and you will work under him from now on. By the way, Kyo is a master of ninjutsu who is good at fire escape, and Kasumi has inherited superb jujutsu, bare-handed grappling, etc. Talented girls of ancient martial arts such as wrestling and throwing skills. You both have specialties in the field of physical arts, but your development directions are different. From now on, you will be teammates who act together."
Hearing this, Kaguya Kimimaro patiently saluted, and the carefree Kasumi Toudo and Kyo Kusanagi also greeted them very politely. Only Ranmaru, the youngest, was a little silent.
"Also, Ranmaru is over four years old. Although his style is more mature, you still need to take more care of him."
The attentive Kyo took a closer look at Ranmaru, who was a little embarrassed but not frightened. He bent down and solemnly shook his extended hand.
"Please give me more advice."
"You're welcome. I will be your eyes and brain from now on. I will be responsible for judging the situation and providing staff planning. The days of dealing with you are still very long."
"Another young and mature genius."
Kasumi, who chuckled lightly, glanced at the indifferent Kaguya Kimimaro, and spoke to Ranmaru kindly.
"I've heard about it. The Sharingan and Red Eye are really amazing guys. I'm going to trouble my little brother in the future."
"Um."
Ranmaru knew that his main task was to assist Kaguya Kimimaro. The formation of this temporary team was also based on Kimimaro's needs. Kyowa Kasumi was still a student of Inaba Academy and a well-known genius, and Kaguya Kimimaro is already a well-known master in the "King of Fighting" challenge. If he hadn't been too young, he might have been able to stir up the trend of the finals.
Ran Wan, who was brought back by Gushan Bu Shui since childhood, must be wise early. A good brain is the foundation, otherwise he would not be able to play the red eye which requires micro-management to exert its power. With his detection assistance, some more dangerous tasks can be carried out. , and you can send them to complete it with confidence.
