"Huang, why don't you ask us what we did that night?"
"Huang, tell me, what will be the name of our future force? The Thunder Light Group is no longer domineering enough."
"Ara, there are many powerful blood successor ninjas in the hands of those bad guys. Some of them are even scary to me. Are you sure of victory?"
"...."
Huang felt a little regretful.
Why should I take this chattering little guy with me and let her go to that isolated island with Nowaki and Uehara Arashi to wait quietly?
The most important thing is that this little girl doesn’t know anything about it!
'Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoosh...'
The sound of waves lapping against the embankment could be heard faintly, and the blue coastline appeared at the end of the field of vision.
"Wow!"
"Sea! It's the sea!"
After exclaiming in surprise, Qianno immediately broke away from the team and rushed towards the blue land with all his strength.
In fact, Huang really wanted to say at this moment: 'Isn't the Kingdom of Tang also close to the sea? Isn’t the Water Kingdom, where the Thunder Light Group often operates, also located near the sea? It's not like the Sand Hidden Village that lives in the mainland, how could it react with such joy to the sea. '
But this is limited to thinking in my mind.
Because he could imagine that once he said something unnecessary.
The girl will definitely come up with a lot of reasons, such as: different sea areas have different customs, different temperatures, different colors, different residents, etc.
Just thinking about it made Huang feel a little headache.
Moreover, was he taught by this little guy?
How can you draw inferences from one instance to another in an instant?
"Sorry, Mr. Huang."
Seemingly seeing the former's helplessness, Feng Xin, who was following closely behind him, immediately apologized and slowly explained:
"Qianno has been an orphan since she was a child. She has never met her parents or her own people. She has lived under the control of Oya Castle Flame for as long as she can remember, so she is very curious about everything in the outside world."
"You must have noticed that she is the strongest in the Thunder Group, and she usually carries greater pressure than us."
"Now, it's rare to meet an adult who can be recognized by her, and you are obviously much stronger than us, so you indulge yourself so freely."
"Qianno, I haven't been this happy for a long time."
Hearing this, Huang didn't say anything, just nodded slightly.
In fact, all of this is limited to the vomiting in his heart.
Because he used to walk alone and had long been accustomed to being quiet.
and.......
That girl is special.
[Goodness]: The respect of the Thunder Light Group, Qianno's hope.
........
The port of the Country of Fire, opposite the Country of the Sea, is a bit crude, with no bustle or bustle in sight.
The sea people living here are also in a hurry, and their faces do not show the joy of receiving the gifts of the sea.
"Sir Huang, I have bought the nautical chart here, but it also does not record the location of the Spiritual Island. However, there are still ships leading to the 'Mother Island' of the Sea Country."
Makihara Taku was the first to bring back the message.
"Um."
Huang hummed lightly.
At this moment, his whole body was hidden in a large cloak, and the wristband on his forehead was temporarily taken off.
Not only that, everyone including Taku, Chino, and Fuxin were shrouded in large cloaks.
After all, this place belongs to the Kingdom of Fire. Although the tree with a face is on guard against the strong men who may appear, he can't take care of the uniform civilians. It is inevitable that there will be Konoha's spies hiding among them.
Ara was not surprised by the message brought back by Makihara Taku.
After all, Psychic Island is an affiliated island of the Kingdom of the Sea and an important place for cultivating psychic beasts. How could it appear on the navigation chart of a small port?
Perhaps, the adjacent Water Kingdom and Fire Kingdom are recorded on detailed strategic charts.
But due to his identity, he couldn't get it easily.
'After all, there is no way around the country of the sea. '
Ara thought to himself as he looked at the four islands looming in his field of vision.
At the same time, Feng Xin also brought back news.
This port, which occupies a position opposite the Kingdom of the Sea, is supposed to be a prosperous port. However, the reason why it looks so depressed and lonely is because of the 'sea demons' that attack humans and ships.
Over time, many indigenous residents chose to leave their homes and make a living elsewhere. Even some seafood merchants stayed away from this port with its uncertain risks.
Moreover, there is something even more terrifying:
In these years, mysterious incidents often occur here!
That is to say, a certain person will suddenly disappear without any warning and cannot be found no matter how hard he searches.
Such a strange incident further confirmed the existence of the 'Sea Demon'.
"Hey, are you the one who wants to take the boat?"
"If you want to go to the country of the sea, please hurry up. The boat will not leave when the sun goes down."
The call of the dockyard uncle also came to my ears.
"Yes, sorry, we'll come right away."
Feng Xin responded on his behalf.
This is of course Huang's arrangement, and in the next trip to the Kingdom of the Sea, the other party will also take the lead in contacting the powerful people of that country.
The reason remains the same, to minimize the possibility of its own exposure.
"Qianno, let's go."
Huang called to the girl who kept running along the coastline, letting out bursts of laughter like silver bells.
"Okay~"
After responding, Qianno took the shoes placed on the shore and trotted over barefoot, not caring at all whether it would scratch the soles of her feet.
The ship docked at the port was not big, and it seemed that it could only accommodate less than ten people. As for the people on board, there were only four people in it.
It is said that because of the "sea devil", no one dares to take a boat near sunset.
This was also his last trip, just in time.
"Eh?"
"Sea Devil!!"
When the topic was brought up again, Qianno, who was sitting on the side of the boat kicking the water boredly, suddenly became excited.
"Uncle, tell me quickly, tell me soon!!"
"I'm super powerful, maybe I can help you beat that so-called 'sea devil' away!"
She raised her little fist and said fiercely.
Although it doesn't look like a deterrent.
Naturally, the boatman at the helm refused decisively. After all, it was somewhat unlucky to mention that terrifying monster on the sea.
However, how could Qianno be someone who gives up easily?
Between the hand seals, a water dragon full of powerful power became her background.
"Don't worry, uncle. We are wandering ninjas who travel everywhere. We are afraid that the 'sea demon' will not dare to show up after knowing our names."
"You see, I'm super powerful!"
She crossed her arms in front of her chest and said very proudly.
In the end, the boatman at the helm lowered his voice and spoke loudly, perhaps hoping that the group of wandering ninjas in front of them could really help them change this panic situation.
Huang was also listening silently, but most of them were things he knew.
The sea country they are heading to is composed of many islands of different sizes, with the mother island in the center, which is the political and military center of a country.
Adjacent to the main island are Taro Island, Jiro Island, and Onigai Island, which is called a restricted area!
Onijie Island is the legendary lair where the sea devil lives.
All humans who have come close have never appeared again.
No.
There is still a special case.
However, the boatman only took her over in a hurry and was not willing to mention her more. He just called her the "Shenyin Girl".
"Hey, it seems interesting."
Qianno exclaimed, her little feet falling into the sea water splashing more happily.
"But didn't those daimyo send ninjas to investigate?"
Suddenly, she seemed to remember something, and there was a hint of dissatisfaction in her words.
Once upon a time, the purpose of the Lei Guang Regiment was to rob the rich and give to the poor, and the big names of small countries who did nothing were the main targets of their attacks.
"There is no ninja village in the Kingdom of the Sea. It is a military defense contract signed with the Kingdom of Water. However, the Kirigakure Village will not pay attention to such a trivial matter, right?"
The boatman's uncle's voice was vague and uncertain.
He didn't dare to get involved in the affairs of big shots, and he really didn't hear any ninja going to Onigai Island to investigate the missing persons.
The unknown is the scariest thing.
Hearing this, Qianno suddenly looked at the real leader of the team, as if expecting something.
However, the man's cheeks were completely hidden in the cloak, making it impossible to see any expression clearly.
And without Qianno's chirping, the ship's sailing in the second half seemed to be a little faster.
"Well, we landed safely!"
With a slight bump on the hull and the uncle's relaxed voice, the Kingdom of the Sea has arrived.
"Trouble."
The group of four people disembarked one by one, and Feng Xin, who was at the end, thanked them and handed over a few banknotes.
"Hey, thank you for your patronage."
The uncle who took the coin responded with a smile.
However, his raised gaze seemed to have touched something for a moment, and a complicated look appeared on his face involuntarily.
"That one is the hidden girl I mentioned."
"If you want to know something, she should know it best. However, the people on the mother island regard her as a disaster and an unknown thing."
"If you don't want to be looked at differently, it's best not to touch her easily."
After saying that, the fisherman uncle began to organize and tie up his boat.
At the moment, the sun has set in the west, and the golden afterglow is pouring on the boundless sea. It has a different kind of beauty, but for the sea people who have lived here for a long time, it symbolizes an unspeakable crisis.
Hearing such a statement, Qianno's slightly silent mood suddenly came to life again, and her eyes eagerly looked in the direction that her uncle had previously pointed.
A thin figure appeared in the field of vision. She seemed to have just returned from sea fishing. Her clothes and hair were a little wet. She was holding a bamboo basket in her hands, which contained fresh seafood that was still alive and kicking.
However, from the moment it appeared, the entire sky seemed to dim a little.
"The monster is back!"
"You god of plague!"
"Stay away from us!"
"..."
One after another, the sharp words were viciously applied to the girl like the sharpest sword, and the perpetrators of those words were actually a group of children playing at the beach!
However, the girl seemed to have adapted to this kind of imposition a long time ago. She did not retort or pay attention, and just walked along with her cheeks lowered.
But such silence did not win any kind treatment.
"Get out of here!"
Suddenly, a seemingly older child picked up an angular stone from the ground and threw it hard at the girl.
And this act seemed to open Pandora's box, and in an instant, the surrounding children began to follow suit.
In response, the girl who was called a monster just bent down subconsciously and protected the seafood in the basket in her arms. These hard-earned seafood were her last resort to sustain her livelihood and see the future. There cannot be any damage.
But at this moment, just when the stone with considerable force was about to hit the girl, a figure happened to walk in between the two.
'Snapped. '
The stone is full of edges and corners, and can be manipulated at will.
A transparent defensive cover also appeared, and the overwhelming debris that followed was intercepted and fell to the ground like rain.
"shortage!'
Seeing this scene, Qianano was about to open his mouth to cheer, but suddenly remembered the repeated warnings on the way not to mention his name, and hurriedly covered his mouth.
'Crack. '
The tough sea stone was easily crushed by Huang.
His cheeks hidden under the cloak also slowly turned towards the group of children who were shouting curses, slanders, and picking up stones to throw at them.
"Looking for death?"
The cold and inhuman words were pushed aside, and a fierce killing force poured down.
It seemed that those naughty boys were not targeting the mysterious girl.
But, he himself.
In an instant, the little kids who had been laughing and cursing before fell to the beach and cried loudly.
Even if Ming Jing Shisui's momentum only poured out scraps, it was not something that these little gangsters could easily bear.
"gone."
After venting his emotions, Huang simply put down the words and walked straight towards the capital of the Kingdom of the Sea.
However, at the moment when he turned around, the girl who was bending down to protect the seafood also happened to raise her gaze, and from that perspective, she could clearly see the cheek hidden in the cloak.
Cold, comely, and young!
But after just one glance at her, she stepped back in small steps, as if she was worried about blocking the opponent's path.
Several people from the Thunder Light Group also hurriedly followed after hearing the call.
Only Qianno's face still showed sullenness.
She really wanted to run up and ask Huang why he didn't continue to help the poor girl, or take her away from here.
After all, no matter how you look at this area, there is no room for the other party.
However, under Feng Xin's subtle pull, he finally chose to remain silent.
All right.
I know it myself.
Being careful, prudent, not making unnecessary mistakes, and quickly achieving the purpose of this trip is the most important thing at the moment.
However, that miserable girl wearing bandages is really too easy to evoke her sympathy and past.
........
The appearance of wandering ninjas caused a bit of trouble in this small country without a ninja village.
Although the daimyo of this country did not come to receive the request in person, he still sent his general Haisei to come forward to listen to the appeal.
"...So, the reason why we came to your place is to obtain a chart about the psychic island, and then go to the island to find psychic beasts that match our own abilities, and establish a relationship with them. Spiritual contract.”
"Of course we will pay for the charts."
Feng Xin sat at the negotiation table and honestly stated her requirements according to her boss's request.
From Huang's perspective, equal trade is the most basic and first priority, and being able to buy sea maps with money is the most ideal result.
If it doesn't work, he will choose to use other methods.
After all, there are no powerful ninjas here.
Ordinary people can't resist the Sharingan.
"I understand your request."
A powerful voice came from General Haixing's mouth.
He is a powerful middle-aged man, wearing standard armor and having a beard.
"However, the maritime charts are related to the safety of our country. Random leakage will only cause trouble. This is no longer a question of money."
"And Tongling Island is also a very special place for our country."
"Forgive me for not being able to agree."
Haixing responded firmly.
Feng Xin did not show too much disappointment at such a response. It could even be said that they were ready to implement plan B.
After all, compared to the Kingdom of Fire and the Kingdom of Water, this small force without a ninja village is the easiest to bully.
"Well, we also understand that we were a little too hasty, so let's not bother the general for the time being..."
Feng Xin responded according to the prepared words.
But just as the two parties were preparing to leave the scene with dignity, an unexpected question quietly rang out:
"On the way here, we heard a lot of rumors about the 'Sea Devil'."
The questioning voice was very soft.
But it carries a power that no one can ignore!
General Haixing's expression suddenly froze.
Complex emotions flashed across the cheeks filled with vicissitudes of life.
This is a thorn stuck in their country that has not been removed until now.
It's not like they haven't sent warriors to explore, but they all never returned.
As for hiring ninjas from other countries, this expense that cannot be easily graded is far beyond the losses caused by the 'Sea Demon'.
After all, fishermen are disappearing only in places close to Onigai Island.
'shortage! '
This sentence also made Qianno, who was always a little absent-minded, instantly clenched her little fists! !
She is not a child and has already guessed some of the subsequent developments.
But, what makes her confused is that the former has clearly formulated a simpler action plan, but now he wants to abandon it?
No.
wrong.
This is Huang’s character!
I and the Thunder Light Group did not misjudge the person!
A slight smile appeared in his eyes.
"In that case, we can help your country explore the Ghost World Island and eliminate the possible 'sea demons' on your behalf. In exchange, I hope your country will provide us with a sea map."
"Of course, I swear to the God of Chakra, we will never leak this chart, otherwise we will no longer be able to use ninjutsu."
"How about it, General Starfish?"
Feng Xin quickly organized his words.
"this......."
Such words made the general, who still cared about the common people, hesitate.
"I need to report to the daimyo."
He ultimately failed to make a decision.
In response, Feng Xin's gaze quietly stretched back a little, but after noticing that Huang didn't make any other statement, he immediately chose to agree.
"Then please hurry up, General. Our time is also precious."
