Every time he releases the power of "Wedge", Gu Shanbu Shui feels a sense of disparity as external forces take away part of his body control.
Powerful is powerful enough, but the illusion of mental and physical tearing that follows him makes it a little difficult to adjust.
When he switches to a fighting stance and his strength skyrockets, or when he returns to his original state and all the buffs fade away, it takes Gushan Bu Shui some time to adapt.
Of course, this is due to the fact that Furusugi has limited qualifications for Bushui, and it is difficult to coexist with the genes of the Otsutsuki clan, and cannot quickly thaw and accept new powers. There is also the reason that the "White Wedge" that Otsutsuki Kaguya gave to Furusugi Bushui is indeed unique. related.
The Furusugi clan, which inherited the bloodline of the legendary "Momotaro" prototype, itself has a major conflict with the "visitors from outside the world". If Kaguya Otsutsuki hadn't been weakened too much, and Fusugi Bosui hadn't fully activated the power inherited from his ancestors, the integration of the two would have been even more difficult.
Fortunately, the "Wedge" was implanted relatively early. After several months of hard work and sporadic blood sacrifices, the degree of thawing of the "Wedge" in Gu Shanbu Shui's body was finally close to 60%.
This is already a remarkable achievement. People with insufficient strength and average qualifications will basically not be able to reach this step.
However, this ratio is only close to 60% of the gene release ratio of the Otsutsuki clan, which does not mean that only 40% of the required time is left to "read the article".
The farther back you go, the slower it gets!
Without even the impetus of the blood sacrifice, or the sudden realization during the desperate fight, it is not known when the "White Wedge" in Gushan Bushui's body will be completely thawed.
On the vast sea, a fleet of thirteen large and small steel ships crossed the corner of the Tea Country peninsula, turned around, and prepared to take a rest along the coast of the Bear Country to replenish fuel, food and other supplies. , and then headed towards the country of Sichuan in the east.
Along the way, the mermaid guards and the disciples of the Zahe Zhong prepared everything and sent it directly to the ship after the fleet docked.
In the southern bay filled with reefs, the fleet sailed along a mature route, frightening the large and small ships along the way to avoid them, for fear of provoking the warships who were not easy to offend to try their guns on them.
Don't think that these maritime merchants are unfounded.
In the vast sea, the sky is not responding to the calls, and the earth and the earth are not working.
There is nothing on the endless sea. The order of civilized society is gone here. The so-called merchants and pirates are the same thing sometimes. When encountering difficulties, they will do business honestly. Once they encounter a big fat sheep, There are many people who put on their headscarves, hang up their pirate flags and get going.
In today's ninja world, although there is an international convention for the safety of life at sea established under the leadership of the Kosugi family, no one knows how many people will abide by it.
The sea is a lawless place, but there are corresponding unspoken rules, and relatively smooth trade routes are still maintained.
Gushan Bushui is on his southern tour again after many years. No one knows if he wants to go on another "bloody journey", and no one dares to ask.
Looking at those majestic steel hulls and the family battle flags hanging high, no one who hangs out in the southeast doesn't know what they mean.
Four years ago, the eldest son of the Gushan family, who also rode a steel warship all the way south and plowed everything he passed, used the blood of countless people to cast a red color on his sole responsibility as an adult. .
Especially in the Bear Country, the underground forces in the entire country were almost wiped out. The local daimyo didn't even dare to let go of a fart, allowing him to support a ninja village under his nose.
Fortunately, Gushan Bushui didn't think about depriving the name of the Bear Country of his real power. He just sent someone to say hello and left.
No one thought there was anything wrong with what Furugi Bushui did. It would be abnormal for a super dude like Fushugushui not to cause some trouble. Compared to him who spent more than ten years going to Konoha Village to learn to be a ninja, This is not worth mentioning.
This patrol also did not announce it to the world with great fanfare. Instead, we found a time when the weather was good and went to sea with the steel fleet.
In order not to get caught in the crosshairs of Young Master Gushan, a large number of businessmen who were relatively well-informed and had not yet wiped the shit off their butts simply closed their doors.
Work for a few days, or postpone important activities until the famous Gushan family fleet has left.
After waiting at the port for three days, dealing with matters in the Hoshi Ninja Village, and letting Hansaki continue his efforts to manage this hard-won family business, the village chief, who led the Fuuma clan to resettle in this new home, asked with some hope. :
"Master Bu Shui, Hoshi Ninja Village will no longer send Sasame, Kageno and others to take the Chunin Exam this year. Taking part for three consecutive years is too conspicuous. This year we plan to let the newcomers see the world."
"Oh... did those two kids agree? You can't suppress them just because they are girls!"
There are only a few talents in the Fuuma clan, and every genius who is qualified to become an official ninja is extremely precious.
Sasame and Kageno are quite capable, but there is still a gap between them and real geniuses. Participating for three consecutive years, the excellent performance really left a deep impression on people.
It's not that they are weak or don't work hard enough, it's that they don't have an advantageous position at the top chuunin exam venue in the entire ninja world.
"It's not good to have familiar faces every year. My subordinates plan to directly grant them chunin, and then let the young people who perform well go out to fight, gain experience, and cultivate enough talents for the next few years."
"You have to make your own decision on this matter. You are the leader of the Star Ninja Village."
Gu Shanbu Shui waved his hand, indicating that he did not mean to control the power of the Star Ninja Village in every detail.
"I heard that you created a "preparatory ninja" class in the village. What do you think? "
"The main thing is to control the number of ninjas. Having such a "cushion cushion" enhances the village's ability to take on low-level tasks without greatly increasing expenses. "
To put it bluntly, a group of apprentices and temporary workers were forced into the ninja school and official ninjas.
When manpower is tight, talents can be promoted from this buffer layer and granted genin status. If the village's income is sluggish, lower remuneration can be used to maintain livelihoods for more people.
Gu Shanbu Shui did not comment much on this initiative, but warned him seriously:
"Every temporary plan that is made out of necessity is good in its initial design, but it gradually changes during the implementation process. You must grasp the scale of this and do not exceed it, let alone It has become a means of exploiting children."
There is no law for the protection of minors in the ninja world, but there are still agreed-upon rules. Overly harsh oppression may lead to criticism.
The rule Fusugi Bosui set for Hanzaki is that between ninjas and ordinary people, it is best not to artificially create class barrier lakes and forcibly deduct the ninja status of those children so that they can be hired to do genin work at a higher price.
"Don't worry, young master, we, the Feng Mo clan, don't dare to do anything too extreme."
After all, they were once precarious wandering ninjas who had to do dirty work in order to have a full meal. Now, under the protection of Gu Shanbu Shui, they have gained some dignity, but they cannot intensify their exploitation and a few things because of this. A person who is as destitute as he was years ago. "
"For matters within Konoha Village, if you encounter any trouble, please contact Togakushi Hinode. If you need to withdraw money, food and supplies urgently, please contact Katsura Haru to take charge."
"As commanded."
Kneeling on one knee, Hansaki stepped back after bowing, and Furugi Fusui called out Yasukawa Zaihara, who had been waiting for a few minutes.
"Have Kimimaro and the others arrived?"
"We arrived half an hour ago. I saw the young master and Village Chief Hansaki talking, so I asked them to wait in the lounge."
"Call them over..."
Things about the Kingdom of the Sea took a little longer than expected. Otherwise, according to the schedule, we should have arrived two days ago, not this afternoon.
A few minutes later, Kaguya Kimimaro, Kusanagi Kyo, Toudo Kasumi and Ranmaru walked into the ship's office. Fusugi Fusui was already waiting.
"I hope everything goes well. Why did it take you so long? Are the people Orochimaru sent to the Kingdom of the Sea difficult to deal with?"
"It's not just a problem for Tenchi and Orochimaru's men, young master, we also helped Haixing carry out a coup..."
"Eh?"
Gu Shan Bu Shui was stunned.
"Did I tell you to do this before going?"
"No, Master..."
Kimimaro was concise and concise, but it was too troublesome to explain clearly. Ranmaru pulled Kimimaro's collar and motioned for him to speak,
"The boss of the Kingdom of the Sea, Ming, was seriously ill and unable to govern. Two sons, a daughter and three nephews fought for power. In the end, a powerful family elder usurped power. He supported the daughter of the boss to ascend the throne, and then wanted to Let her marry her son and make her grandson the heir apparent. That family is the enemy of Haixing, the commander of the gold fleet guard..."
"What kind of fool is this? He doesn't know the changes in the power structure among small countries, and he can't do anything without a nod from the background?"
Gushan Bu Shui stroked his forehead and sighed slightly. He couldn't help but mourn for the guys in this world who are ambitious but don't have much vision.
Having power and means, but without a big picture and extraordinary vision, he is more likely to be tempted by immediate interests and make wrong decisions.
"Young Master, I think the reason why they took the risk is because they didn't know at all that the backers behind them had been replaced by the Gushan family..."
Ranmaru started thinking and added,
"The daimyo and the titular prince, that is, the eldest son, should know. It's hard to say for the others."
The previous backstage - Kirigakure Village actually doesn't care much about the affairs of the small island country far away across the ocean, and the same cannot be said for the Kosugi family.
As long as he takes the position by force, creates a fait accompli, and then notifies Kirigakure Village, no one will probably come to investigate.
The low-key Gushan family rarely shows its presence in the Kingdom of the Sea. It basically uses Tianzhi and Haixing to control the Kingdom of the Sea, which is thousands of miles away.
The daimyo and the prince also knew it, but others might not know it.
"So, you just "brought order to order" and killed those guys who usurped power? "
"I just locked him up and let Haixing and the new daimyo he supports decide how to deal with it."
Conflicts at the level of rural fighting are really nothing worth paying attention to.
"Sending you here has indeed done something."
It was indeed good luck that nipped a turmoil in the bud.
Such a small country in a remote place is so troublesome. Even in a place with a big nose, there is still a lot of bloodshed internally.
What's there to argue about?
The Fire Country is so rich and wonderful, isn’t it enough?
Why do you want to stay in the country of the sea and go crazy?
"What happened to Orochimaru's people?"
"Being put on the test bed by Tianzhi, I reminded him, but unfortunately, that guy, seeing the excellent experimental materials, can't tolerate anything else in his heart."
Ranmaru finally gave an overview of the whole story, and Gusugi Bushui also had a rough idea.
To put it bluntly, the cause of this incident was that Orochimaru was chased too hard by the ANBU of Konoha Village, the Red Sand Scorpion and Deidara.
He had a fight with Jiraiya, and although he was slightly better, he wasn't necessarily very confident.
After pushing the four people back, Gu Shan Bu Shui silently weighed the gains and losses.
Making Orochimaru stronger has indeed changed a lot.
The current Orochimaru should be a little stronger than in the original timeline. Under the dual stimulation of "Wedge" and Yindu pollution, he has crossed the threshold of Sage Mode, which has once again improved his peak combat power.
Considering that most of the strength will be dormant in the next two years, after the damage of the Third Ninja World War has been almost wiped out, the clouds of war will almost begin to brew again.
By asking Otsutsuki Kaguya, Kosugi Bosui learned that this powerful ninja was traveling across the Country of Grass, preparing to go to the Country of Taki and then return to the Country of Tian.
Originally, his route was to go southeast, but for some unknown reason, he went all the way back.
"Just to dispel his intention to change the soul container immediately, I used the precious power of "Wedge" to let Orochimaru master the method of turning on Sage Mode. It will be troublesome in the future. "
Orochimaru, who had become stronger, teamed up with Sunagakure Village to launch the "Konoha Collapse Plan" with the intention of provoking another war in the ninja world. The aging Hokage Sandaime Sarutobi Hiruzen was really sure of severely injuring Orochimaru and then killed him. retreat?
Gusugi Bushui wanted to know whether fate could bring the destiny of the ninja world back on the established track, and how it could be done.
It is indeed worth observing how much the "Three Ninjas", the Twelve Ninjas of Konoha, and a large number of Konoha Village masters active in the ninja world will be affected.
After another night of rest, the fleet set sail early the next morning, facing the waves, and headed towards the country of Kawa.
Under the sea, there were dozens of mermaids holding weapons made of unknown materials, guarding the fleet.
Several huge sea beasts, dragging underwater mechanical ghosts like fully enclosed giant submarines, landed at the back.
The first ones to let go are a group of carefully selected marine psychic beasts, including whale sharks, dolphins, tuna, turtles, etc.
In the sea area near Kawanoguni, efforts have been made to open up new settlements. The elites of the "Zagazhong" who have stabilized the existing sphere of influence are urgently renovating the port and opening up shipping routes to prepare for the upcoming arrival of the young governor of the Kosugi family. The place.
