"I'm going to have to send it to this place."

Passing through the foggy sea, the ship sails into a narrow cave, and a glittering city built on an isolated island suddenly opens up before the eyes.

The boatman, who was rocking the oar, docked the boat and said to the guests on the boat.

He is the one responsible for transporting outsiders into this isolated island, and according to the regulations, it is his job to guide guests, and he does not have the right to land on the isolated island.

Kazuhime nodded to the boatman, stepped off the boat, and stepped into the realm of the isolated island, taking a closer look at this unknown isolated island city.

As the rumor has described, it is resplendent and resplendent like a paradise for the rich.

With Cardo's arrangement, she easily passed the procedures of landing on this isolated island, and next, she only needed to gather information about the country of waves and the country of fire.

In order to facilitate her movement, she changed into a ninja costume and instead wore a white tunic dress like a normal girl, and wore a mask painted with silver flowers on her face to hide her face.

After all, she wasn't sure if there would be conflicts with people here, and it was better to avoid unnecessary troubles as much as possible.

The glittering island city was filled with detailed signposts, which, combined with Cardo's instructions, led her to a large, conspicuous dome to take her feet.

It was easy to bypass the security guards and infiltrate the huge building.

Although it is not known what this building is used for, there is a faint smell of blood in the air, and this is probably not a good place.

Walk through a hidden path that, according to Cardo, leads to one of the building's VIP rooms.

In this kind of foreign territory, without the guidance of someone familiar with the place, it is difficult to solve the identity problem alone, let alone come here to investigate things.

Therefore, it will be much more convenient to investigate things with the help of the other party's internal personnel through the insiders of the isolated island.

Walking to the end of the road, there is a door blocking the exit.

Next to the door, an electronic combination lock is attached.

The correct code will need to be entered for the door to open.

The material of the door is isolated from the induction of Chakra, and the surrounding walls are also made of very hard stone, even if a large number of detonation charms are used, it is impossible to explode immediately, and it can also isolate the infiltration of the earth escape technique.

Kazuhime recalled the password given by Cardo and entered the number into the combination lock.

There was a crackling sound, and the sound of unlocking was heard, and the door automatically opened a little inside.

The password is correct.

Through the crack in the door, there was a slight light, and the light in the room was on.

"Please come in, mysterious guest."

The owner of the room on the other side of the door also seemed to hear the sound of the door opening, and the sound of the other party chuckling was heard.

Yiji didn't hesitate, pushed the door open further, and the whole person appeared in the brightly lit VIP room and saw the owner of the room.

The other man was lying on a luxurious soft chair that could rotate automatically, with his back to the direction of the door, facing the transparent glass wall in front of him, and he was looking at the field outside the glass wall, as if there was something interesting there that attracted him.

Closing the door, Kazuhime came to the side of the owner of the room, and also followed the other person's line of sight, looking at the huge field outside the glass wall.

It was a huge arena for people to fight, and the audience was full.

Two young teenagers dressed as ninjas are fighting in the center of the gladiatorial arena.

Whenever a gorgeous ninjutsu is released, it causes the people in the audience to howl with excitement.

Seeing this scene, Kazuhime didn't know why, and felt uncomfortable.

It wasn't that the ninjas on both sides of the battle disgusted her, but that the people watching the battle in the arena gave her a very crazy feeling, like a domineering bloodthirsty beast.

"Is there any point in such a fight?"

Kazuhime asked incomprehensibly.

The other party chuckled and replied: "Of course it makes sense, no matter who you are, you need to release the dark emotions in your heart." And violence is one of those ways to vent. And not only that, it's also a battle for the face of their respective masters. The owners gain face, and they get money, which is a win-win cooperation for both parties. While the losers will be dominated by the winners' masters, that's how they survive. ”

"I beg to differ."

Ichihime snorted coldly.

"It's going to be cold, little miss. Although you were introduced by Cardo, I didn't expect you to be a minor. ”

The other party seemed to be a little surprised.

Kazuhime was silent and did not answer.

The other party didn't seem to have any desire to explore, so he got up from the recliner and stretched lazily, making a comfortable breathing sound.

Kazuhime really looked at this man from the beginning.

With a strong body, if you don't have that weird pair of sunglasses on your face, you look even more personable.

"So, introduce yourself. I'm a weapons merchant and a part-time intelligence merchant, and my name is Gomono Chengyan. On this isolated island, there is barely a little influence. What about you, little miss? ”

Miya Castle politely stretched out his hand and asked with a chuckle at Kazuhime.

"You can just call me a thousand households."

"It's not like your real name, little miss, it's really sad, I've already told you my real name."

Miyajo pretended to cry and whined.

Seeing that Yiji was still unmoved, he stopped pretending to cry and laughed very easily: "But for the sake of your cute face like my daughter, I'll forgive you this time." ”

Seeing Miya Castle's crying and smiling face, Kazuhime was a little unsure of the true face of this man.

I can't tell whether the other party is really sad or fake sad.

The expressions and movements are very well handled.

Even if I tell myself in my heart that the other party is just acting, I still have to be amazed by the other party's acting skills, just like the real thing.

"It doesn't matter what the name is, I'm just here to investigate something. I heard you have a bit of power here, so wanted to get something out of you. ”

Speaking of this, Kazuhime paused and continued, "The money for the acquisition of intelligence is not a problem. ”

"Hey, it seems that the little lady is not the kind of big lady who is not short of money. It is true that my intelligence fee is very expensive, and ordinary people absolutely cannot afford it, but the authenticity of the information is still very high. ”

Rather than being complacent, Miya Castle is stating ironclad facts.

"That's good." Kazuhime glanced at Miya Castle and said straight to the point: "I want to know if the merchants here have any plans in the country of waves." There is also whether they have colluded with the officials of the Fire Country, causing the Fire Country to completely ignore the situation of the Land of Waves. ”

"Well...... this"

Miya Castle glanced at Kazuhime in a little surprise.

"What's wrong?"

"No, I just think it's weird. Little Miss, you are also some important person in the country of ghosts. ”

Miyajo smiled strangely.

Yiji frowned, and didn't speak, which was a tacit acquiescence.

"Before you came, an old friend came over and asked me to assist the spy agents of the Oni Nation military in investigating information about some illegal drug. I thought you were here to investigate this...... I didn't expect it to be related to the country of waves. ”

Hearing this, Yiji was also slightly stunned.

Immediately understood, the military spy mentioned by Miya Castle should have been sent by her father, Shiraishi, to investigate the intelligence.

That kind of illegal drug should be a forbidden enhancement drug developed by the tailed beast Chakra.

"In this way, it seems that the country of ghosts is in the country of waves, and it is not for any purpose to collect debts. Digging so thoroughly, is it what you plan to do there? ”

Miya Castle asked tentatively.

He felt that he might be cheated by Miyoko.

He knew that the debt collectors of the Oni Country had gone to the Land of Waves, but he thought that it was just normal debt collection, and normal debt collection, and it was obvious that there was no need to dig deep into these things.

Then, it is likely that the country of ghosts has other plans against the country of waves in the name of debt collection.

First the big country, and now even the affairs of the small country have to be involved, and the Imperial House Castle is a little confused about what the military of the Oni Country is going to do.

Although he knows a little bit about the military of the Oni Country through Miyoko's relationship, there are also a lot of things he doesn't know.

For example, the plan of the country of ghosts in the country of waves.

Clearly not for debt collection.

"It's not a good thing for you to know too much. Since Cardo recommended me, I guess your credibility is fine. Of course, even if there is a problem with your credibility later, I will solve the problem smoothly. ”

Kazuhime said.

"It's terrible, it's terrible, you don't really plan to kill people, do you? I'm a helpful arms merchant. ”

Miya Castle wiped the cold sweat on his face that didn't exist.

"I don't have time to talk to you here, just say a number."

Kazuhime was a little impatient, and the man's oily tone made her feel unusually unhappy.

Obviously standing here has no flaws at all, he is a ninja who has experienced a hundred battles, but he still has to lamely disguise himself as a harmless businessman, how to look at it.

"Well, don't be too anxious, little miss. As long as you have money in this place, you can buy a lot of good things. Well, how about we go have a meal together? ”

Miyajo suggested.

Kazuhime stared at the open eyes behind Miyajo's sunglasses, and the expression behind the mask was cold.

Miya Castle shook his head a little boredly when he saw that Ichihime didn't eat the oil and salt.

"I really don't understand the mood at all, okay, then let's trade as soon as possible. I do know a little bit behind the scenes on the Wave Country side. ”

Miyajo admits that he knows some information.

"How much does this information cost?"

Kazuhime just asked about this.

Miya Cheng smiled and said, "Oh, it's too vulgar to talk about money, and besides, does the little lady think I'm a businessman who is short of money?" For a businessman of my level, no amount of money is just a number. ”

"And what do you want? Or is there an enemy who wants revenge? ”

Kazuhime asked.

"It's all said that you want to be kind to others, but I don't easily make enemies with others, after all, it may be a little troublesome to solve the enemy on the day of the feud."

Miya Castle waved his hand and smiled out of tune.

"Say, what do you want to do?"

Kazuhime let out a sigh and asked directly about the purpose of Miya Castle.

As long as the other party's purpose is not too outrageous, it doesn't hurt to agree.

"For me, entertainment is more important than money. Miss, you're a ninja. ”

Miya Castle laughed.

"Aren't you too?"

"No, no, I'm just a businessman with a little money, and it's not for people like me. However, I prefer to watch other people fight and kill because it's more enjoyable. ”

Kazuhime's eyes narrowed slightly behind the mask, and a cold light shot out of them.

Miya Castle pointed to the huge gladiatorial arena below, as if he didn't see the cold gaze that Kazuhime shot at him, and smiled to himself, "How about it, can you go up and perform?" If you can win three games in a row, I'll tell you everything I know. Of course, it's okay to refuse, and if you lose, I'll have to pay to redeem you. By the way, if you lose the competition, you shouldn't cry your nose to find your parents, right? ”

"You're such an unpleasant guy in every sense of the word."

Kazuhime looked up and met Miya Castle's smiling eyes.

"Thanks for the compliment, after all, it's one of the few ways I've been entertained. If you don't agree, the little lady can just leave, and the deal will be as if it never happened. ”

After Miyajo finished speaking, he ignored Kazuhime and sat back on the chaise longue, holding a wine glass and tasting the red wine in it, showing a look of enjoyment.

"It's okay to win three in a row, right?"

Kazuhime asked indifferently, suppressing the anger in his heart.

"That's right, three wins in a row."

Miyajo nodded, a smile on his face.

"I hope you don't break the contract then, or you'll die an ugly death."

Kazuhime dropped the sentence and walked out of the room.

Miya Castle chuckled, picked up the communicator next to him, and spoke to the staff in the gladiatorial arena:

"I'm the owner of VIP Room Seven, help me arrange a ......"

◎

didn't put on a ninja costume, but went directly to the field in a casual costume, like an elegant aristocratic lady, Kazuhime stood in the gladiatorial arena that was incompatible with her temperament, causing a considerable amount of people's uproar.

The rich people in the audience, accustomed to seeing shabby-dressed ninjas, are the first time to see such a gorgeous figure appear in the gladiatorial arena, to fight with ninjas.

This moment directly opened a certain box of desire in their hearts.

But there are also some people who question the strength of Yiji, who is dressed like this.

Because the ninja standing in the center of the gladiatorial arena is not something that can win just by appearance, like the kind of ninja who is not good-looking, or who is tall and has a fierce expression, the strength is stronger.

Compared to them, Kazuhime looks really weak and can't help the wind, as if the wind will be blown away together.

At this time, a well-dressed adult man walked to the center of the venue with a microphone and introduced the situation to the wealthy audience in the audience with a warm smile:

"Give glory to the victors, and despair upon the weak. Today's twenty-eighth Ninja Fighting Tournament is about to begin. The one who appears on the left is Mr. Miyajo's hand, Miss Sento. ”

The audience remembered the enthusiastic applause.

Some of them showed a look of doubt in their eyes, the surname of Miya Castle can be described as a thunderous name on this isolated island.

The other party is the leading businessman in the ninja world, although the amount of wealth is not the level of the rich country, but he is also a big man with a face on the isolated island.

And Kazuhime, who goes by the pseudonym Chinohe, not only appears in a dress that is not a ninja, but also wears a mask that covers his face, and with the Miya Castle behind him, some people already feel that something is abnormal.

But for most viewers, they only care about whether the next battle is exciting or not, and whether it can bring them supreme pleasure and pleasure.

Flashy ninjas, there is only one way to die here.

"Next, the one on the right is about to appear, Mr. Oman's hand, which has a 60% win rate in the gladiatorial arena, calls himself the Light of Swift Shadow, and is confident that he is the genius ninja of the second generation of Thunder Shadow in terms of speed - Narumu."

The male emcee in charge of the referee's work introduces the opponent who will compete with Kazuhime next.

After the master of ceremonies said this, a figure suddenly appeared on the field, and everyone could not detect the trajectory of his movement, so they came directly to the stage where the battle was about to be fought.

He was about twenty years old and slender, and he tilted his head sideways, gently kneading his wrist, and looked Kazuhime's whole body up and down, and the face of the ninja named Narumu immediately showed contempt.

"What, is today's opponent a little girl? Is that really good? I'm not one to take pity on jade. ”

He said to the master of ceremonies.

The master of ceremonies just had a professional smile on his face and didn't answer Narumu's question.

"The game starts now."

After the two of them stood still, there were no extra words, and after the master of ceremonies shouted this sentence, he immediately jumped back and went to a safe place to watch the battle.

And after the order to fight came down, Narumu's figure flashed again and disappeared from the field.

"Hmph, my speed is the second fastest in the ninja world, even Lei Ying was amazed when he saw it, can a little girl like you really keep up with my speed?"

Voices came from all directions, opening the eyes of the wealthy in the audience.

Although they couldn't see Narumu's figure, they also knew that Narumu's speed was so fast that they couldn't tell it with the naked eye.

"It's really a statement that is in line with the identity of a third-rate miscellaneous fish, it's disappointing, the second fastest speed in the ninja world."

Kazuhime didn't look at him and commented on Narumaru's speed.

"What do you say? Hmph, it's only now that the mouth is hard, and I can't react in surprise. ”

The swishing sound became more rapid, and it also proved that Narumaru had increased his speed again.

Although he said arrogant words, Narumaru has been in the gladiatorial arena for many years, and he is not a newcomer who doesn't understand anything.

The opponents who appear in the gladiatorial arena, all ninjas, whether old people or children, cannot be judged by common sense.

Is there no indifference to such provocations? Looking at Kazuhime, who was not provoked by the words, Narumu said secretly in his heart.

originally wanted to use these words to provoke the other party and make the other party flawed, but now it seems that the other party's qi cultivation skills are better than he imagined.

Then do it!

Narumaru's eyes flashed, and a shuriken suddenly appeared between his fingers, cutting through the air like lightning and flying towards Kazuhime's body.

Snort!

Shuriken were stuck on the floor without exception.

What!? Narumaru's eyes widened, and he looked at Ichihime, who was motionless, incredulously.

Did the shuriken pass through the opponent's body?

Ninjutsu abilities?

Narumaru's eyes became solemn.

Sure enough, his own provocative and cautious actions at the beginning were correct.

This little ghost's strength is not ordinary.

If you want to win this battle, I'm afraid it won't be so easy.

Narumu had a new plan in mind, and immediately appeared, stepped back, opened a safe distance from Kazuhime, and sealed his hands, ready to perform some kind of magic.

"Huh?"

Narumu was stunned again.

Because Kazuhime's figure disappeared from his field of vision.

There was no sense of movement around us.

The other party's disappearance was too sudden, making him a little unable to react.

"It seems that my speed is even better, that is, my speed is the best in the ninja world, right?"

The cold words came from behind, and Narumaru's face changed drastically, and he turned around and retreated wildly.

His face was stunned again, and there was still no one behind him.

Then, Narumaru seemed to sense something, his face was covered in cold sweat, and his body stiffened in place and couldn't move.

A sharp blade rested on his shoulder from behind, the cold blade close to his neck, giving him goosebumps on his neck.

It's cold and biting.

"I see, the shuriken didn't penetrate the body, but the speed was too fast, and after dodging the shuriken, it immediately returned to the same place, and ......"

He couldn't see it with the naked eye.

When Narumaru learned of this fact, a bitter smile appeared on his face that only came after being severely defeated.

The strength of himself and this girl is simply very different.

Even the most confident speed field was ruthlessly crushed by the other party.

Narumaru couldn't imagine that in the next battle, he would have a chance to turn defeat into victory.

Kazuhime took the blade off Narumu's shoulder, and his gaze indifferently swept towards the male emcee who also looked stunned.

"Hurry up and arrange the opponent for the next game, I'm in a hurry."

"Uh...... Good. ”

The winner is already clear.

Narumu lost the will to fight, and the difference in strength between the two sides was too large, even if he relied on a sneak attack, it was estimated that he would be killed in an instant.

The male emcee looked at Yihime's petite body in surprise, and the strength shown by the other party was probably comparable to only the top ninja masters in the gladiatorial arena.

……

Standing in front of the glass wall, Miya Castle drank red wine and looked down as he watched the competition in the gladiatorial arena, with a smile on his lips.

"This eldest lady of yours is really terrifying. The man named Narumu, even if the speed is ordinary shinobi, it is difficult to catch him. After all, his Blood Inheritance Limit focuses on speed, and he is a master of speed. ”

Miya Castle simply made such an assessment.

"The strength of the eldest lady is naturally unfathomable. Still, I didn't expect you to be so nasty, Miya Castle. ”

Standing next to Miya Castle is a diminutive man dressed in a black suit and a pair of black sunglasses, with a sinister and cunning face.

He stood there calmly with an iron cane in his hand.

None other than Cardo.

"That's right, after all, it's the successor of the writing wheel. However, it's a bit of a pity that I can't see the appearance of the writing wheel. ”

Miya Castle shook his head regretfully.

"Hmph."

Cardo doesn't comment on this.

"However, I don't understand a little, this kind of thing only needs to send someone over, why do you want to let this eldest lady come over?"

Miya Castle was a little confused.

If you can notice that there is a problem with those medicines, presumably the intelligence of the country of waves, the military of the country of ghosts will not let it go.

"This is what the boss meant, I want to see if the eldest lady will be confused by the appearance of things. If you want to succeed, it is very difficult to achieve great things by pure force alone. If the eldest lady can't even notice such a trivial matter, it can only mean that the boss's expectations for her are still too high. The affairs of the country of waves will also be decided by me and withdraw the eldest lady. ”

"With a small country as the object of training, you are really extravagant."

Miya Castle was staggered.

That's right, the current country of ghosts already has the resources of a great power.

It's really qualified to be in that level of playfield.

Use small countries as a stage for battle, treat them as pawns to fiddle with, and compete with the rest of the big countries in strength and wisdom.

Cardo didn't answer, but turned and left the VIP room as if he hadn't been there.

In this regard, Miya Castle didn't care, and continued to watch Kazuhime's next competition, as well as the weapon in her hand.

If he was not mistaken, it was probably one of Orochimaru's treasured Kusanagi swords.

With extremely sharp and sturdy characteristics, it is the top weapon in the ninja world.

When he used to spend money on Orochimaru, the other party refused mercilessly. Unexpectedly, he saw the treasure of Orochimaru here, and Miya Castle couldn't help but sigh at the wonder of fate.

"The Land of Waves...... Hmph, it seems that there will be a good show for a long time to come, and this island is estimated to not exist for long. If I'm targeted by the Oni Country, I'll be ready to evacuate as soon as possible. ”

With the personality of Chiba Shiraishi, the commander of the military of the Oni Country, he must be eager to destroy this kind of rotten place.

Maybe one day he will suddenly disappear from the world.,In terms of self-knowledge and grasping the situation.,Miya Castle is very confident.。

Because of this, he will not be easily caught, and he will be happy in the world of ninja world.

Don't provoke powerful people, you have to dig out more strongholds than money in the ninja world, and when you encounter something wrong, no matter how profitable the business is next, you must quickly abandon it.

This is how the merchant of his Imperial City Flame survives.

Safety first.
