Chapter 45: Landing on the Island

Lying on the bed of the inn, no longer thinking about what he had heard from the tavernkeeper.

As a ninja, Zai Bu Slash is not interested in the sea demons themselves.

Because for ordinary people, ninjas can easily make ordinary people see what they think is real as long as they cast a small illusion.

According to the information obtained from Mizukage, the Dried Persimmon Demon Whale has fled to the Land of Waves, and as long as he exists on this island, he can easily achieve this effect.

Use illusions to intimidate nearby boatmen into coming with a boat, thus reducing the likelihood of revealing their existence.

As evidence, the so-called "Sea Devils" did not attack the merchant team that had gone to Wuyin Village to buy and sell before.

In fact, this caravan is an ordinary merchant team on the surface, but in fact, there is also a job in secret, which is to collect information on various nearby island countries for Wuyin Village.

Although the entire caravan was composed of ordinary people, and even outsiders were allowed to join the caravan, in fact, behind the caravan was Wuyin Village, and all the information obtained by the merchants along the way would be reported to Wuyin Village.

So when that Konoha spy ninja chose to rely on this caravan to infiltrate the Fog Hidden Village, it was already doomed to him.

There are many caravans like this in the Fog Hidden Village, and they are ostensibly carrying out various commercial activities in and around the Water Country, and the Fog Hidden Village is only one of their business targets.

But in fact, every time they returned to Wuyin Village, they would hand over the information they had obtained along the way.

In this way, the Fog Hidden Village secretly collects the intelligence of the surrounding island countries, which is not a secret among the ninjas of the Fog Hidden Village, at least the traitorous ninja Dry Persimmon Demon Whale, who is an elite ninja, is clear.

Therefore, in order not to alarm the Fog Hidden Village, the "Sea Devil" did not attack the caravan that traveled to the country of waves, and quickly bought the caravan's goods and did not let the caravan stay on the island.

The truth of the sea devil is nothing more than the dried persimmon demon whale playing tricks, as for the boatmen who disappeared in the Shenyin incident, they should have been taken away by the dried persimmon demon whale, the purpose is to intimidate the nearby boatmen not to go to the country of waves again.

Painstakingly constructing things that don't exist in order to hide their hiding place, it seems that this traitor has spent a lot of effort to hide his whereabouts.

However, what makes Zai Bu a little unclear is why all of a sudden the people in the country of waves have become so rich?

And why did the tavern owner say that something was wrong with the people of the country of waves?

It seems that this will only be known until we arrive in the country of waves tomorrow.

...

In the early morning of the next day, he stood at the port on time according to the time the tavern owner said, waiting.

There was not a single ship docked on the shore of the harbor, as if the other boatmen had docked their own boats somewhere else to avoid something.

At this time, there was no one else in the port except for no one else.

On the cold water, a ship poked out of the thick fog and headed for the shore.

The boat was much larger than the average boatman's, and could seat a dozen people when fully loaded, and there was a shed made of tarpaulin on the top of the boat.

At this time, under the shed, there were already six seated figures and a boatman holding the boat.

The boat slowly approached the shore, and the six people sitting on the boat suddenly stood up at the same time.

They were dark-skinned, slightly disheveled, and angry, all of whom looked like young men.

When the boat was completely close to the shore, they stepped out of the boat with a clumsy waddling motion, and then disappeared into the road to the town almost sneaky, almost somewhat sneakily.

If you don't cut it anymore, at this time, I can understand why the tavern owner said that something is wrong with the people of the country of waves.

They move as if their lower body is out of their control, or their feet are no longer adapted to life on land, and they walk crookedly.

And somehow, there is an inexplicable disgust in my heart that is gradually spreading.

The boatman on the ship, as the tavern owner said, will not wait for the return of these people of the country of waves, and will carry the boat away as soon as it is docked.

Zabu immediately jumped onto the boat and saw a wooden sign hanging under the shed.

The boat fare is 500 taels.

A few simple words indicate the price of the boat, without stating the number of people or whether it is a single trip or a round trip.

It's as if the boatman decided that as long as he got on the boat, he would never go back.

He threw the 500 taels of boat fares into a wooden box next to the boatman, and the boatman tilted his head and glanced at it, but he didn't pay any more attention to it.

He sat down in the seat where the six people from the country of waves were sitting just now, and then carefully observed the boatman in front of him.

It was an emaciated man, with a crooked waist, dressed in a relatively shabby civilian attire and a dark blue cap with mildew at the corners.

Judging from this dress alone, no matter how much you don't realize that this boatman is also a "generous" wave countryman.

The boatman's head also feels more "unique" than the average person.

The head is narrow, the nose is flat, the ears are underdeveloped, the forehead and jaw are retracted backwards, and the sides of the neck are oddly shaped with crack-like folds that are sunken downward.

His face was gloomy and expressionless, and his bulging, grayish-white eyes were staring at the water, as if they would never blink.

Repulsive faces.

This disgusting face reminds me of the people of the Dried Persimmon family.

The Dried Persimmon Family is a family that can use a special blood inheritance limit, and their bodies have body organs that only sea creatures have, in addition to being able to transform into the combat form of sea creatures, and being good at fighting in the water, they can also use some special techniques with sea creatures.

The dried persimmon family is divided into whale family and shark family according to the different marine creatures in the blood inheritance limit.

However, the two tribes have one thing in common, that is, they have pale blue skin on their bodies, and they have gills on the cheekbones on their faces or on the sides of their necks.

The appearance of this boatman reminds me of the people of the persimmon family, especially the folds on both sides of the neck, which resemble the gills of a fish.

In addition to observing the boatmen on the boat, Zai Bu also perceives the sea surface at all times, and beware of the so-called "sea devil" suddenly appearing in the water.

However, the sea surface is unusually calm, and it seems that the "Sea Devil" will indeed not attack the ship.

...

After half an hour, the ship rushed out of the thick fog and leaned against the shore of the country of waves.

Here, I don't see any other boats, and it seems that if you want to go back, you can only take this boat.

Standing on the shore, I finally saw the country of waves shrouded in haze.

In the distance, a huge chimney stands in the very center of the island, and the closest place is a small fishing village by the sea.

Zai Bu used the ninja's footsteps to go to the nearest fishing village first, but as soon as he arrived at the fishing village, Zai Bu saw an ancient house that symbolized a certain faith, and a red figure was about to walk towards the ancient house.

Sensing the arrival of Zaibu, the red-clothed priest with a golden crown on his head looked back at Zaibubu with bad intentions.

And his face is even weirder than the boatman just now!
