Chapter 20: Desperate Choices
When there are no outsiders, Momiji is also quite bold, except for the title to appear respectful, he does not shy away from sticking to his side, while pouring wine, he affectionately brushes off the cherry blossom petals that fall on his body for the ancient cedar water.
When he was busy with business, Momiji also stopped talking in a funny way, and quietly stayed aside and waited for instructions, occasionally stepping forward quietly, changing the direction of the plate, so that the hand of Gu Shanbu Shui, who was all focused on the information in his hand, would not be empty.
Just as time was passing minute by minute, Gu Shanbushui, who was about to turn to the end, suddenly frowned:
"The Wind Demons? It's also a ninja clan with a lot of background, although it's not down now, and the ancestors are more than ......."
They have indeed inherited some real ninjutsu, and they are not liars who rely on blindfolds to deceive the world.
Compared with the Wind Demon clan and the Vortex family, which is not strong enough and is about to become bandits, it is really hard to comment on which one is more miserable.
"Is there a talent worthy of the young master's attention?"
Momiji wasted no time in asking, among so many contestants, there should be some ability to get into the eye.
"Strength, in fact, that's what it is. Having traveled thousands of miles from the country of Tian to come here, it is estimated that there is no other way. I don't know how many wandering ninjas have disappeared silently in the ninja world, and the Wind Demon clan doesn't have any special skills, but they ......"
Gu Shanbu Shui explained with a smile,
"Those who drag their families are always more reliable than those lone rangers. Let's not talk about the skills, at least they have the intention to try to cheer up. If you are not afraid of poor strength, you are afraid of losing your fighting spirit......"
Gu Shanbu Shui had the intention to recruit the descendants of these ninja tribes who had been strapped to the point of playing immortal jumping and robbing the travelers in the past, and he was a little worried about whether there was fraud in them.
Tian no Kuni is Orochimaru's territory, and the sound ninja village has now been established, but the seniority is too shallow, and it has not yet formed an alliance with Konoha Village.
The current Wind Demon clan still retains some valuable secret arts, and Orochimaru values knowledge, and he doesn't pay attention to local ninjas with mediocre qualifications.
But in case these people have a connection with Orochimaru, and the Gushan family recruits them, it will be bad if they get into trouble.
After pondering for a while, Gu Shanbu Shui took a pen and wrote a letter and handed it to Momiji.
"Send it to Togakushi Sunrise in Konoha Village, and ask him to arrange for someone to check the details of Tian no Kuni and the recent situation of the Wind Demon Clan......"
In the past, it was not without ninjas participating in the "King of Fighting" competitions, but most of them were organized in order to make a name for themselves and collect higher commissions, so it was less likely to be recruited by the Furusugi family.
Like the Wind Demon Clan, which is just right and takes the initiative to send it to the door, it is really hard to find.
……
Half a month later, a fleet of five large ships departed from Inaba Port and headed for the country of Ha in the southeast direction of the morning glow.
The luxury cruise ship where Gu Shanbushui was located was guarded in the middle, and in front of it was a heavily armed steel warship, which used giant cannons to clear the way for the fleet.
It was followed by three armed merchant ships, loaded with goods, ready to trade with various nations.
The bow of the ship was blowing the sea breeze in the ancient cedar water, breathing in the brackish air, and looking at the warship birds hovering not far away.
"I hope this trip can really be rewarded!"
Five large ships, carrying a total of nearly a thousand people, half of the battleships in front, another quarter of the servants and guards on the luxury cruise ship where Gu Shanbushui was located, and the rest were scattered among three armed merchant ships.
The sea in the ninja world is not calm today, and I don't know how many pirates are hiding on the islands and reefs.
Many fleets of mysterious origins are maritime merchants when they enter the port, and pirates when they leave the port.
On land, there are often people who issue tasks, offering rewards for robbers who block the road, and on the vast sea, it is basically impossible to find a random place to hide, and ninjas who are proficient in tracking can only sigh.
Just when Gu Shanbushui was hesitating whether to write a poem and ask his "art consultants" and "writing assistants" to "proofread" a piece of beautiful writing, there was a sound of leather boots stepping on the wooden floor.
Gu Shanbushui turned around and saw a strong man with a scar on his face walking over, and the samurai guards wearing half-body armor on the left and right immediately pressed their swords in front of him.
"Who? Stop ......"
The loud cheer startled the visitor, and when he saw the other party's posture of wanting to do something if he didn't agree, he couldn't help but secretly complain about his recklessness, but the Wind Demon Clan was about to be unable to hold on, and any opportunity to continue should not be let go.
"Please don't get me wrong, I'm Hanqi from the Wind Demon Clan, and I'm very grateful to the Young Family Governor for not disliking the lowly skills of the contemptible people, and giving me the opportunity to show the secret skills of the Wind Demon Clan......"
"What is there to look forward to when you are eliminated in the preliminaries?"
Gu Shanbu Shui waved his hand, letting the left and right retreat for the time being,
"Do you think I gave you the opportunity to accompany the fleet, do you think the Wind Demon Clan is strong? I can always hire a more reliable Konoha ninja to do things for me if I want! By the way, on the boat behind, there is a Konoha ninja squad to escort ......"
Listening to Gu Shanbushui's words, Hansaki's face changed incessantly, and he stood ten meters away, hesitating how to go further.
The Gushan family is not a local tyrant who has little knowledge, nor is it an outbreak merchant with money and no power, and if you get close to this fleet, you should understand that the wealthy family who once regarded their family as their country, and the vast majority of the people in the ninja world, are completely creatures of two worlds.
The way the marketplace dealt with civilians couldn't fool the noble young man in front of him at all.
After struggling for a long time, Hanzaki gritted his teeth, knelt down respectfully, and said in a trembling voice:
"In front of a noble person like you, the current Wind Demon Clan is indeed not worth mentioning. However, please believe in our determination to continue the legacy, as long as we can give a way to live, we will never give ......up."
"Loyalty, prove it to me! There is still a long time to go along the way, and there should be no shortage of opportunities! ”
If you can satisfy Gu Shanbu Shui, you will naturally show the Wind Demon Clan a clear way, otherwise, you will go back where you came from!
"Understood, thank you for your generosity!"
As he spoke, Hanzaki bowed and turned to leave.
Looking at the other party's back, Gu Shanbu Shui smiled lightly.
"In the end, he is the leader who has been entrusted with the hope of the clan, even if it is a temporary one, the amount of equipment is still a little bit, the strength is a little worse, the heart is acceptable, and he is a character who knows how to advance and retreat!"
According to the information obtained from Togakushi's Sunrise investigation, the Wind Demon Clan has indeed come into contact with Orochimaru, and the unlucky people who were coaxed by the name of "Three Ninjas" handed over all the inheritance secret techniques, and the genius Arashi who had high hopes also went to the Otoshinobi Village.
After a few years of perseverance, from being hopeful to being driven out and living on the streets, they set their sights on the Furusugi family, who are known for their generosity.
