Chapter 54: The Lair
Starfish's words, Gu Shanbu Shui didn't believe it very much.
With Orochimaru's strength, the laboratory's defenses must be quite tight, and it would be difficult for those poor test subjects to save their lives, let alone escape while they were in chaos.
Even projects that are about to be abandoned will not have such a flaw. It's normal to invest a lot of money and spend energy without results, but this place is a treasure of feng shui, and it's still very good as a hiding place.
When the crops grow crooked, the value of the land remains, and it will not really be abandoned.
The project of "Synthetic Naval Weapons" has turned yellow, and there are still people who are still thinking about resurrection, struggling to operate, if nothing else, it will be a year before a few hits from Naruto Uzumaki and other Konoha ninjas will completely disappear.
The fleet of the Gushan family, which has just arrived, has not directly related to the forces stationed on the strange island, and the fact that the starfish is backed by Gushan Bushui is still unknown.
In any case, since he was killed, of course he had to fight back strongly, otherwise he would be regarded as a weak and bullying big fat sheep, and Gu Shanbushui's plan in the land of the sea would be ruined.
The fleet, which had already been on alert, began to organize a counterattack and knocked the invading fish monsters out of the water from the deck. By the time Gu Shanbushui stepped forward to take charge of the overall situation, there were no more ugly humanoid creatures screaming and holding leakage weapons as far as the eye could see.
The faint smell of blood filled the air, proving that there had indeed been a fierce conflict before.
The leaders of each department took turns to report the situation, which made Gu Shanbushui's heart relax a little.
The number of incoming enemies is unknown, but there are about twenty monsters that jumped onto the deck from the sea, and the well-trained crew caught twelve of them at the cost of less than five minor injuries, and the rest jumped into the sea to escape.
A row of dark green, gray-black, and silvery-white scaled fish monsters with their bodies attached to their bodies were subdued and lined up on the deck, waiting for the confirmation of the ancient cedar water.
Obviously, the degree of alienation of these fish monsters is quite high, and even if they are injured, they have not returned to their normal human appearance.
Except for their torsos and limbs, which are mostly humanoid, their faces no longer look like normal people.
By strengthening his perception, Gu Shanbushui clearly understood that these fish monsters were still alive, and even the two who were seriously injured showed a terrible ability to recover after pouring water on their bodies, and the wounds that could be seen deep in the bones had scabbed over and stopped bleeding.
"Leather is durable, a necessary feature of war weapons, and it is true!"
Whether the strength is strong or not is another thing to say for the time being, the recovery ability of these synthetic fish monsters is really good, as long as they are not too fatally injured, they should be able to save their lives, and recover in a short period of time, and gain the ability to go to the battlefield again.
"Have you been interrogated?"
Gu Shanbushui asked, and the temporary manager Yasukawa Zaihara replied respectfully:
"These monsters don't seem to have a high IQ, and under torture, they can only wail in pain, and they can't figure out whether they can speak. Because there are still enemy peeps under the water, there is no further understanding ......"
"Can't speak?"
Such a result surprised Gu Shanbushui.
Judging by the behavior of Yuhuo a few years later, it seems that she is able to switch freely between fish monsters and humanoids, and under normal circumstances, only a few fish characteristics are retained.
"Perhaps, I thought wrong, like the kind of Tianzhi and Yuhuo, it is already a rare finished product that can come in handy!"
The purpose of the laboratory, which hides in this small ocean-going nation, is to create an amphibious ninja force that is absolutely loyal.
In order to achieve the goal, it is certainly not possible to achieve it overnight, and the intermediate process is very long. It took countless years of human effort to domesticate wild wolves into domestic dogs, and it was even more difficult to cultivate major crops such as rice and wheat from wild grasses into staple food.
It is even more difficult to create a new amphibian species with humans or fish, even with the ingenuity of Orochimaru, won't it fail?
Between the ninja and the fishing fire, how many strange "intermediates" there are, I'm afraid even Orochimaru himself can't figure it out.
"No, they are wise ......"
From the pheromones that emanate from them, you can understand that these inhuman monsters are also high-IQ creatures with complex emotions, maybe not as intelligent as humans, but they are not completely unable to communicate.
"Lock them up first, don't let them die......"
After ordering the ancient sugi to go down, let people bring these fish monsters down, and then stood against the railing, watching the Konoha ninjas treading the waves, chasing the shadows shuttling underwater.
It's a pity that neither Maitkai, Ebisu nor Shiranui Genma are ninjas who are good at water warfare, especially Maitkai, after jumping high, he suddenly fell, and the hammer hit the water surface, causing a splash several meters high, and the force was reduced by the waves layer by layer, and it fell on the underwater fish monster, and there was no power left.
Seeing this, the ancient cedar water turned over, crossed the side of the boat, and landed steadily on the water.
"Let me come!"
Although it is a bit unashamed, among the more than 1,000 people within a radius of several kilometers, Gu Shanbu Water is the best used in Water Escape Ninjutsu.
Moreover, it was not long before he "refined" a large amount of water, and he was about to find a place to test his power, which could be regarded as a timely meeting.
"Water Escape, Five Eaters!"
With one hand, one hand poked into the water, and wisps of water glowing with blue brilliance turned into five ferocious sharks, pounced on the fish monsters swimming in the water, and their hideous sharp teeth were obviously able to tear any creature that was bitten to pieces.
The fish monsters, who were originally playing tricks on the Konoha ninjas with ease, and waiting for the opportunity to raid again and rescue their captured compatriots, suddenly panicked, flicked their thick tails, and fled in a panic.
In a hurry, they didn't find that the fierce water shark quietly drove them all together, not far from the ancient Shanbu water.
"Water Escape: Water Prison Technique!"
Under the manipulation of Gu Shanbu Shui's ninjutsu, the five water escape sharks turned into a solid water mass, trapping all the panicked fish monsters in it.
It is obviously an amphibious creature that can move freely in the water, but under the effect of magical ninjutsu, it is completely impossible to escape, and can only be slaughtered by others.
At this moment, a behemoth fish not far away jumped up, opened its big mouth full of sharp teeth, and bit at Gu Shanbu Shui.
Gu Shanbu Shui, who was not frightened, once again sealed with one hand, and then probed into the water prison, turning into silver whips, rolling up more than a dozen fish monsters.
"Water Escape, Water Flow Whip!"
Before he could do so, a green figure flashed, kicked the nearby troll's jaw, and then struck a combo.
"Konoha Great Whirlwind!"
The collision of fists to the end made a dull sound, and the vigorous Maitkai hit the young killer whale, which was fifty or sixty times heavier than himself, into the air, and then used the secret technique of physical arts, Konoha Bad Rock Ascension, to finish, and stepped on the big guy to hit the water.
After being injured like this, he was a bully in the water, and he fainted undignifiedly.
I don't know that Genma and Ebisu have not forgotten their mission, and they are very timely to guard the side of Furusugi Busui.
The Qianben toothpick man didn't know Huo Xuanma's eyes were slightly condensed, and he watched Gu Shanbu Shui pull the water whip and drag more than a dozen water monsters to the water.
"The water escape is so powerful, even if this environment is suitable for your play, it is too exaggerated! Moreover, one-handed stamping is very skillful! ”
"There must be a few hands to press the bottom of the box!"
This kind of small skill of sealing, to say that it is not important, it must be foolish, since it is useful, it is better than nothing.
In the years of failing the Konoha Village Ninja School graduation exams again and again, Gu Shanbushui has not done nothing.
Waving the banknotes and buying a lot of ninjutsu Gu Shanbu Shui, what he needs most is a good teacher who can solve problems and preach and receive a career, and some small skills, there are still people to guide him.
For example, Ebisu, who is trying to cast a thunder escape, cooperates with the water escape of the ancient Sugi Bu Shui, and prepares to corona the fish monster so that they don't struggle to escape, and the future is an elite tutor, before leaving Konoha Village, Gu Sugi Bushui also heard that Sunset Red was hired as a tutor by the Kurama family with a high salary.
Not only Konoha ninjas, but even the mist ninja was invited by Gu Shanbu Shui to be a counselor for a while.
The battle, which was originally still scorching, ended quickly with the sudden strength of Gu Shanbu Shui.
There is no need for Gu Shanbu to be weak, or even the three Konoha ninjas who are strong, because they are not good at water escape and have little experience in naval warfare, they are not as good as the aristocratic young master who is not even a ninja, which really makes some people melancholy.
This is also the reason why Konoha Village did not hesitate to disobey human ethics and let Orochimaru conduct human experiments, and also strengthen maritime defense.
After the death of the second generation of Hokage, Konoha Ninja can no longer suppress the fog ninja at sea, the coastline of the Fire Country is so long, the battle is open, there are defenses everywhere, there are loopholes everywhere, and there is no way to take the initiative at all, so you can only let the fog ninja come and go freely.
On the other side, Maitkai, who was carrying a huge tail and dragging a killer whale to come, saw a water monster floating on the water, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said with a smile:
"It's a bunch of strange creatures, and I don't know where they came from."
Gu Shanbushui, who did not answer directly, glanced at the killer whale half-floating on the water, and asked seriously:
"I caught these fish monsters, and they should be disposed of by me! That big guy counts your loot, tell me a price, and sell it to me! ”
"No, our job is to protect you. The enemies that threaten your safety are all eradicated, and all the gains are naturally at your disposal! ”
"That being said, the law is nothing more than human affection, after all, it is a sexual cry!"
Beckoning his subordinates to use fishing nets to collect the fish monster and catch it back, Gu Shanbu Shui flew up, landed on the top of the killer whale's head, and stomped his feet.
"It looks like it's still alive, so it's more valuable!"
The dead whale can only be peeled and cramped, boiled in oil and lit by lamp, and its meat quality is acceptable, and in the hands of experienced chefs, it is also a good ingredient.
This kind of young killer whale that has not yet grown to its peak, if it is domesticated, is also a good psychic beast, it doesn't work on land, it is still somewhat useful in the sea, at least it can be used as a mount.
"I heard that you like to play baseball, and a grandball bat should be compensated!"
"Okay!"
Maitkai, who was quite enthusiastic about the blood-boiling exercise, readily agreed to the conditions of the ancient Shanbu water.
After the group took the captives into custody, Gu Shanbu Shui asked Yasukawa Zaihara to clean up the aftermath, and he led Momiji to take a look at these captured fish monsters.
Including the one caught earlier, there were twenty-seven in total, and most of them were relatively strong species, and the fifteen caught later were obviously more human-like, and their performance in battle was also more intelligent.
"It seems that the experiments of amphibious water ninjas have been tried in many directions, and the current ones are cannon fodder that is more controllable than fish."
After roughly observing the differences of the individuals, Gu Shanbu Shui took the least "fish-humanized" among them, the most human-like one out of the water prison, put it on the ground, and poured a tube of medicine into its mouth, and the slightly weak fish monster woke up slowly.
After looking around and seeing the ancient sugi water and red leaves, he, or her, who was nervous, opened his big mouth and let out a hoarse roar, intimidating the approaching ancient sugi water.
"Don't pretend, I know you understand. Can you speak, if you can have a value that makes me look at it differently, I don't recommend letting you go......"
The bluffing fish monster seemed to realize that the young man in front of him was not an indigenous fisherman who could be fooled around, so he stood up and pushed back a few steps, and the hideous color gradually disappeared, the original fins and tail disappeared, and most of the scales on his body were also hidden, like a slender young girl wearing half of the fish scale armor.
"Sure enough!"
Seeing this, Gu Shanbushui looked like he had expected it, and asked coldly,
"Tell me, why did you attack us?"
"This is our home, the fishermen who come and go, and we don't hurt them, but if you want to stay forever, there is no place for us to live in this fjord."
"You...... Guys? ”
Carefully figuring out the words in the other party's words, Gu Shanbu Shui suddenly,
"Here...... Is it your lair? ”
From the perspective of the young family governor, this nameless fjord is undoubtedly a treasure of feng shui, and the geographical conditions are better than the Gushan family's Siqi Island, but the location is too remote and not near any mainstream waterway.
I didn't expect this beautiful place to be the nest of a group of fish monsters.
"Well, whatever you are, since you are intelligent beings, you deserve respect. We are civilized people, and we will not kill you as monsters and eat meat. ”
"We're not monsters, we're human!"
"It's best if you want to think so, but ......"
Gu Shanbu Shui pointed to the other fish monsters floating in the petri dish,
"These monsters that have brain problems and can't recover most of their humanoid features, too?"
"Of course, at least once it was also a compatriot who could walk freely in the sun!"
If it had been left in the previous life, Gu Shanbu Shui would have wiped out these wise monsters a long time ago.
Those who are not of my race will have different hearts.
But in the ninja world, there are many intelligent races, and there is no shortage of this group in front of them. Even, this is a tragedy of human beings' own iniquity.
Yuhuo is lucky enough, at least she is still like a normal person, disliked by adults and bullied by children.
The victims, who don't know how long they have lived in this fjord, can only hide in this inaccessible fjord.
