"Your Tang Ninja Village is too dark, aren't you? This broken ship is worth eight million taels? ”

On the dock side of the shipyard, Ghost Lantern Shuiyue exaggerated and complained loudly: "Besides, didn't such a thing as a wooden sailboat be eliminated fifty years ago?" ”

At this time, it was evening, and the orange-red sunset was half submerged into the sea, and a double-track wooden sailing ship more than 20 meters long stopped in the harbor, casting a slender shadow to the east.

Yi Yong's dark gaze was covered by shadows, and he couldn't see it very clearly.

But the high-level god of Tang Ren, who was in charge of docking, glanced over, and suddenly felt a chill on his neck, as if there was a group of spiders running frantically behind his neck.

"This, this ......"

Kaminai, who had been at the root for so many years, couldn't help but touch the cold sweat on his forehead.

Even when he had failed his mission and faced the angry Danzo-sama, he had never been so nervous.

He always felt that if he told even a lie today, he would probably be in a different place.

"This was originally a show vintage sailboat custom-made by the aristocracy, and I know you may not be happy with it. However, according to Mr. Tomioka's request, this is the only ship that can be completed and launched today, and it is the result of all the workers of the six shipyards working overtime to catch up with the work. Of course, it's not impossible for you to ask for ironclad ships, but at the latest you have to wait another three or four days before enough steel can be brought over......

As he spoke, the afterglow of God did not forget to sweep over the face of the righteous brave from time to time.

For some reason, Kaminai only felt as if his heart was being held by a cold hand, and even his body was completely seen through by the other party.

"But can this wooden boat really reach the land of water? If you encounter a storm or something on the way, you can't be slapped by the waves and scattered! Not to mention the possibility of being targeted by pirates! ”

Ghost Lantern Shuiyue grinned with a mouth full of fangs, and sneered: "What? Did Tang Ninja Village actually want his benefactor to have an accident so much? Is it that if we die, no one will know the truth about last night? ”

"Never, never."

Kaminai quickly explained, "Although it was a rush to work, our engineers also considered this problem, so they replaced the shell from ordinary wood with a more resistant special board, which is only slightly inferior to the ironclad ship. And this kind of plate is fireproof, even if it is shelled by pirates, it will not burn.

However, this type of plate is very expensive, and it is generally only considered for the residence or treasure room of the daimyo and nobles for safety reasons. Therefore, although the cost of materials for this ship is far less than eight million taels, there are always three or four million. Counting the labor costs, the village is already very sincere. ”

"Is that so?"

When the ghost lamp Shuiyue was still full of suspicion, Yiyong had already made a move.

"Fire Escape, Flame Bomb."

He made a few stamps, and with a puff of his cheeks, a ball of orange fire the size of a human head protruded from his mouth, and slammed into the port side of the sailboat.

The violent heat released and spread, distorting the surrounding air in an instant, causing the ghost lantern Suigetsu and Kaminai to quickly retreat.

Only Ranmaru in a wheelchair couldn't dodge, and as the heat wave hit, the ends of his hair curled slightly, and there was a surging smell of scorched lake.

However, such a fire slammed into the hull of the ship, leaving only a charred black mark.

[The temperature is so high, nearly ten meters apart......]

God was secretly frightened. When the shipwright tested the ignition point of the plate, it was scalded with a red iron of more than 1,000 degrees, but it did not leave many traces on it.

Can be a C-level fire escape......

This means that the temperature of the fire escape used by Yi Yong is much higher than that of red iron, which is also the level of Shangnin.

"How long will it take to get to the land of water with this ship?"

Seemingly satisfied with the ship's defense, Yi Yong did not let the ghost lantern water moon continue to entangle, but asked in person.

Kaminai replied, "There is a strong wind all the way from here to the land of water, and the speed of the ship is not too slow. Even if it is near the archipelago outside the water, the large ship must go around, and if it goes well, it will take about three days. ”

Righteous and brave, it seems that there is no need to wait for the faster ironclad ship. By the time the ironclad ship is built, the sailboat will have arrived.

"So be it."

He walked to the back of Ranmaru's wheelchair, leaned on the back of the chair and whispered, "Let's go." ”

Ranmaru didn't have any opinion and nodded slightly.

It's just that I finally escaped from that island country before, and now I have to go back, so I can't help but feel some emotion in my heart.

"Oops, hey, teacher! Wait a minute! ”

The ghost lantern Shui Yue dodged, hurriedly blocked in front of Yi Yong, and stretched out his finger to point at Shennei: "Don't be deceived by this guy!" He said 'smooth words', but everyone knows that the road from here to the land of water will not be smooth! Especially in this season, it's not too normal to encounter a storm or something, once it encounters a huge wave, the ship will definitely not be able to hold on! ”

He, the ghost lamp and water moon, often takes risks by relying on his physical characteristics, but in fact, he is quite afraid of death.

In particular, his hydration technique is still at the level of "jelly technique", and once he falls into the sea, he can only go with the flow.

But more than that, he was worried that Yi Yong would die because of the shipwreck, and that unique swordsmanship would be completely lost.

"Especially the mad dog wave hundreds of meters high, which is even more terrifying than the strongest water escape destructive power! This sailboat can't even turn in time, and then we will have to wait for death! Teacher, why don't we wait a few more days until the ironclad ship is built......"

"I didn't mean to let you go with us."

Yi Yong interrupted him mercilessly, "If you are afraid, stay here." ”

The nine-tailed man lying on top of Yiyong's head glanced at Shui Yue, with an expression of "Big Brother is very disappointed in you".

"Huh? Don't you need a guide? ”

Ghost Lantern Shui Yue didn't expect that he was so unimportant in Yiyong's heart, so he hurriedly said: "When you arrive in the country of water, it is full of fog, and without a traitor + traitor like me, you will definitely get lost!" ”

"The ......"

Ranmaru scratched his head embarrassedly, "I've been following Thunder Ya on missions for the past few years, and it shouldn't be a problem to guide the way." ”

What's more, in the case of his use of red eyes, the fog is no different from nothing.

"You!" "Aren't you afraid of death?" You're coming from there, you know how dangerous it is to be in a storm, right? ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Ranmaru's leg pointedly, "If there is a shipwreck, you will definitely be the first to die!" ”

"Ugh."

Ranmaru wanted to say that he was not afraid, after all, he didn't care much about his life.

But more importantly, he is different from the ghost lantern Shuiyue - when Yiyong cleaned up the dried persimmon whale that is the best at water escape, he was lying on Yiyong's back, so he knew better what Yiyong could do in the face of the storm.

If the Dry Persimmon Whale can deal with the storm at sea with water, then Yi Yong must be able to do it too, he has no doubt.

So the reply given by Ranmaru made Ghost Lantern Shuiyue quite uncomfortable: "It's okay, it should be fine." ”

Considering that Ghost Lantern Shuiyue is very young, but his strength is not good, and he is not as good as Lei Ya, so 0 Lanmaru added intimately: "But if you say, it may be better not to go." ”

Ghost Lantern Shuiyue took a step back as if he had been hit by a critical blow, and looked at Ranmaru, a "little cripple", in disbelief.

[Despised by the disabled! ] 】

"Get out of the way."

Yoshito pushed Ranmaru's wheelchair forward, and his tone was unmistakable, "Don't waste time." ”

How sad Yiyong's face was, how anxious he was in his heart, and he just hoped to get to the place as soon as possible.

In addition to worrying about the situation in the land of water, because Konoha's summer vacation lasts only ten days in total, the consumption on the road is almost the same, and it is a foregone conclusion that he will not be able to rush back before the start of school.

If he goes back too late, the family will inevitably be worried, and once someone is sent to look for him, the risk of exposure will also be greater.

Ghost Lantern Shuiyue looked at Ranmaru and Yiyong, who had similar expressions, and then looked at the fox with a mocking face above Yiyong's head, bit his cheeks, pointed at Ranmaru's innocent little face and said, "You think beautifully!" As the teacher's number one disciple, I must take good care of you, a vixen who disguises himself as a woman and has bad intentions! If you want to seduce the teacher with a cute face and learn magical swordsmanship one step ahead of me, it's just wishful thinking! ”

Ranmaru: "I've always worn men's clothes......"

On the other side, the red tail of the Nine-Tails hung down unpleasantly, and his tone was a little bad: "Fox spirit? ”

"I'm complimenting him!"

After prevaricating, Ghost Lantern Suigetsu immediately snatched the wheelchair from Yiyong's hand and pushed Ranmaru to board the boat first along the plank.

[Seeing that I am so courageous, the teacher's attitude towards me should have changed, right?] 】

When he landed on the deck with Ranmaru, Yoshidashi jumped up, and then immediately divided dozens of water bodies and began to work, lowering the mast, tightening the rope lock and preparing to set off.

Kaminai, who originally wanted to install a spy in the name of no sailor, saw this scene and had to give up.

"Hey, that guy has a lot of hostility towards you."

On the deck, Nine-Tails squinted his eyes and reminded Yiyong very casually, "Just slaughter it, lest there be any conspiracy." ”

"I know. But he wasn't lying about the ship, and I had no reason to do it. ”

Yi Yong shook his head lightly and pulled the anchor out of the water from the side of the ship, "The key now is to hurry, nothing else matters." ”

"What a conceited little ghost. Xing Shoulang didn't listen to the old man's dissuasion before, and he almost planted it. ”

Nine-Tails said that it was naturally a matter of the Land of Rain, "Let me remind you that when I get to the sea, the connection between me and Xingjurou and the ontology will be completely broken, and the chakra consumed will be even more." If there's anything you want to tell Kyojuro, do it now. ”

"Then ask Kyojurou to help me write a letter to Naruto and Sasuke, just say I'm going back later, so they don't have to worry."

Thinking of these two children seemed to make Yiyong's mood slightly relaxed for a moment.

The setting sun shone on Yiyong's face, like a flame trying to melt a lump of eternal ice.

"Hmph, I don't know what's so good about that little ghost that makes you remember him so much!"

Nine-Tails snorted unpleasantly.

In his mouth, "little ghost" is not a definite word, and generally refers to Naruto specifically.

"By the way, if you know the situation on Kyojuro's side, you should be able to see Naruto as well."

Yi Yong glanced over his head, "Is he okay over there?" How are you getting along with Zuosuke? ”

"It's just children fighting all day long, it's not interesting at all, not even blood."

Nine-tails lay down boredly, and Sleeping Beauty supported her cheeks with her forelimbs, "But after you left, there were more people around him." What do you think? Isn't it upset? There are many people who are willing to accompany him in your absence? ”

"Someone around?" Righteous and brave are confused.

"Ahh That white-eyed little girl brings her sister and vegetables to the door every day. ”

The Nine-Tails repeated the situation on Naruto's side, "She originally wanted to give money, but that little ghost didn't ask for it, and instead asked her to teach her physical skills in return." It seems that in the future, he and your twin brother's double training will become three people. ”

[It's just that in the current situation, I really don't know who is the light bulb.] 】

"That's a good thing."

Yoshiyoshi nodded approvingly, it seemed that it wouldn't be long before Hinata Hinata and Naruto would be able to talk to Naruto normally, even if he wasn't in the middle.

"It's not all good."

As soon as the Nine-Tails spoke, his tail wagged leisurely.

"Since this morning, there have suddenly been two more shinobi near that little ghost."

Without waiting for Yoshiyong to ask, the Nine-Tails continued: "Those are two chakras that I haven't seen before, they shouldn't be those Hokage direct to the shadows. Of course, maybe it's a newcomer. ”

Yoshiyu's chin tightened, and his face sank slightly: "It can't be that you did something to attract the Hokage's attention, right?" ”

"Huh?!"

When the Nine-Tails heard this, they were immediately annoyed and jumped from the head of the righteous warrior to the edge of the sailboat.

"Old man is not you casual treacherous humans!"

This is the point that the Nine-Tails is most dissatisfied with the meaning of Yong-

This imp is obviously very strong, but he is very insecure, and he is always on guard and careful with it, as if it can come out of Naruto's belly and destroy Konoha again.

On the contrary, from the first day he saw it, Kyojurou showed unconditional trust like an old man.

Compared with the two, Yiyong's attitude towards him is even more annoying.

"Hold ......"

Yiyong remembered the warning that Kyojurou had told him when he left, and was just about to apologize, but the Nine-Tails had already climbed up along the mast, obviously not planning to communicate with Yiyong again in a short time.

On the other side, the ghost lantern Shuiyue, who was still wary of Ranmaru just now, took the helm and chatted with Ranmaru, and it seemed that they were chatting happily.

[That's good.] 】

Yi Yong watched the two children who were chatting happily and drove the current to slowly push the sailboat out of the harbor.

As soon as they left the shore, the sea breeze blocked by the building immediately found its target, and the huge white sails bulged like the lungs of giants, driving the ship to gradually speed up.

[It's good to take him on the boat, can I ask how to talk to others.] After all, butterflies seem to get angry easily. 】

The sun was sinking further, and the sailboat, which had become a mass of silhouettes, was away towards the sunset, and the shore of Yunin Village, which was still being rebuilt, was getting farther and farther away.

When the buildings in Yunin Village were almost unrealistic, Yi Yong took off the lacquered wooden box he was carrying and opened it.

A gray-haired head with a strange picture on its face was lying in it with duct tape gagged - it was the head of the flying man.

"I've left Yunin Village now. I'll take the tape off your mouth. ”

Yi Yong frowned and said in a deep voice: "But if you let me join your religion again, I will throw the last part of you into the sea, do you understand?" ”

Fei Duan blinked his eyes twice.

Yi Yong tore off the tape with a brush, and before Fei Duan complained, he immediately asked: "What did you mean by saying before that the evil god you believe in has five brains and seven hearts?!" ”
