Chapter Ninety-Five: Assassination Proposal
After a long day's journey, they came to a fishing village on the coast of the Land of Fire, from where they took a boat to the Land of Waves.
On the way, Yamato praised Naruto and Sakura fiercely, praising them for their timely response.
As for Kurayoshi, he was reprimanded.
"Since you have a force far superior to the other party, why don't you capture them alive?" Yamato said: "If you can capture it alive, you will be able to obtain a lot of information, and the mission of the ninja, intelligence is very important." ”
"I'm sorry." Kurayoshi admitted his mistake with a sincere attitude.
Because I watched the anime, I knew the identity of the attackers, and I knew their purpose, so I didn't keep my hand.
But I forgot that other people didn't know, and I didn't tell them, so I couldn't judge many problems and couldn't take countermeasures in advance.
"It's okay, just pay attention next time." Yamato bowed slightly.
Although he has experienced life-and-death combat training, resulting in combat experience that is not inferior to that of Shinobi, mission experience cannot be obtained through training.
He believed that Kurayoshi would be much better in the future after going through this mission.
At this time, the sea suddenly fogged up.
It was so thick that you could only see a hazy affair a few meters away.
The boat was moving for a while, and the boatman suddenly turned off the engine.
"Huh?"
Yamato looked at the boatman in bewilderment.
"You can see the bridge of the country of waves in front of you." The boatman said very seriously, "You can't be found by those guys, or it's going to be bad." ”
"Oops?"
Naruto looked at the boatman's serious expression and blinked his eyes without reacting.
Isn't it just a bunch of gangsters and bandits?
Need to be so cautious?
Yamato and Sakura fell into deep thought.
Dazna, on the other hand, rolled his eyes, and then turned his head away, not daring to look at them.
Only Kurayoshi lay down directly on the ship.
He knew all these things, and didn't listen to the second thought.
"Mr. Dazner." Yamato looked at Dazna with a smile, "You better tell us the truth, otherwise, this mission will be over when you escort you to the shore." ”
"How can this be!" Dazna was a little panicked, "Is the mission to protect me until the end of the bridge, you guys are breaking the contract!" ”
"It's Mr. Dazner, you broke the contract first."
Yamato's face was straight, and he said solemnly: "C-level missions will not encounter ninjas, but two ninjas have already appeared and attacked us before, and at that time I was not sure if the other party's target was you or us, so I didn't raise any objections, but now...... Gangsters and bandits in general don't scare people to this extent, Mr. Dazner, you faked the mission content! ”
"This, this ......"
"Well, I'll tell you everything!"
Dazna sighed and told the truth of the matter.
The country of waves is a small island country located on the sea, and there is no dispute with the world, so there is no ninja village.
Three years ago, Cardo, the owner of a world-famous marine shipping company, took a fancy to this country, he monopolized shipping, and by controlling the country's economic lifeline, he completely mastered the country, and even the daimyo could not resist.
In order to change the fate of the country, Dazner and his people decided to build a bridge to other countries.
But Cardo is a world-famous and wealthy man on the surface, but secretly he controls the gangs, captive these large numbers of samurai and wandering ninjas, and do some shady things.
Dazna touched Cardo's interests by building the bridge, and he would not let Dazna finish the bridge smoothly.
After telling the cause of the incident, he deliberately pretended to be open-minded, saying that even if everyone gave up the task, he would not blame them for being killed, and at most his daughter and grandson would wash their faces with tears all day long, hate the Konoha ninja all their lives, and then live alone for a lifetime.
Hearing Yamato, Naruto, and Sakura's faces were speechless.
But—
"That's it, do you want to give up the mission and go back to Konoha, or continue?" Yamato asked, looking at the three members of the seventh class.
"Do you need to ask?" Naruto clenched his fists and said energetically, "Of course it's going on!" ”
Sakura nodded as well.
Unlike in the anime, they don't want to do advanced tasks because they are bored with low-level tasks, but they want to do advanced tasks because they want to become stronger.
Now, the mission has changed from C-level to B-level, and it is exactly what they want.
Although Sakura was still a little worried in her heart, she strengthened her determination after thinking that the gap between herself and Sasuke was getting farther and farther, and it was difficult to get entangled, and she could only become strangers in the end.
Seeing that the two agreed, Yamato set his sights on Kurayoshi.
"I don't have a problem, but ......" Kurayoshi smiled and looked at Dazna, "Old man, you have falsified the mission content anyway, how about turning the actual mission content into the assassination of Cardo?" ”
"Huh!"
Kurayoshi's proposal startled everyone.
"Kurayoshi, why are you doing this?" Naruto asked, puzzled.
"Does that need to be said?" Kurayoshi sneered: "That Cardo is a scumbag, he doesn't know how many people will be killed in the world, as far as the old man is concerned, even if we protect him and finish building the bridge, can you be sure that he won't find a way to destroy the bridge?" ”
"This ......"
The crowd hesitated.
Naruto Sakura is young and has never seen that Cardo, so I don't know if things will turn out like this.
However, Yamato, who has seen the darkness of people's hearts, and Dazner, who is familiar with Cardo's style, know very well that this kind of thing is very likely.
Therefore, Yamato set his sights on Dazner to see what he had to say.
Dazna hesitated.
He knew that what Kurayoshi said was very likely, but the bottom line of being a legal citizen and the kindness of people's hearts made them reluctant to do so.
After much consideration, he refused.
"Although that's the case, it's too much to take people's lives or something!"
"That's a pity!" Kurayoshi shrugged and said no more.
He had just proposed, and if Dazna had agreed, he would go and slaughter Kadok now, so that it would be done once and for all.
However, since Dazner guards his bottom line and kindness in his heart, he will not trample on it.
Seeing that everyone had made a decision, Yamato nodded, "In that case, let's protect Mr. Dazna together to finish the bridge!" ”
"Thank you very much!"
……
The boat continued to move, and after a while, the outline of a bridge appeared in the fog.
The crowd looked up at the unfinished bridge and paid homage to Dazner's profession.
"Follow this bridge to reach the country of waves." The boatman said as he shook the paddle.
Not long after the words fell, the ship passed through a long bridge hole and entered the territory of the country of waves.
It looks like a city on the water, surrounded by low-slung wooden houses.
The people went ashore on a trestle.
Then he rushed to Dazna's house.
It's just a city on the border of the land of waves, and it's still a long way from Dazna's home.
