The Second Shinobi War lasted for several years and brought indelible damage to many countries.

As a battlefield in the early stage, the country of rain is even more empty, and the family is ruined and the dead are unknown.

Hanzo was once beaten by the Konoha ninja with the Japanese slash and lost his original ambition, gave up the defense of the rain country, and cowered alone in the rain ninja village to lick the physical and mental wounds of the eater.

But none of this has anything to do with the country of the vortex on the other side of the continent, this place that is cut off from all contact is quietly dormant, and it doesn't even know that there is a war in the outside world.

Not to mention the country of the vortex, the mini-country of the country of waves, which is adjacent to the country of the vortex, was also not involved in the ninja war.

Kuchi decisively seized the special period of the Great Ninja War, using his previous abundant shipping capabilities to resell wartime materials between countries.

This caravan, which has lost its stronghold, stubbornly struggles to survive in the cracks of the great powers.

The port of the country of waves is also developing little by little, and there is a trace of the prosperity of the original whirlpool port.

However, with the development of the port and the increase of foreign ships, the people of the country of waves found that this was not the living environment they wanted, and the peaceful life of the past was what they longed for.

But after communicating with Kutch, they also understood that this port was very important to maintain the strength of the caravan of the Vortex Country.

So, they chose to give up the port to Kutch to manage, and the people of the country of Wave moved to live in other parts of the island.

Only a group of craftsmen in charge of shipbuilding were left to live in a remote corner of the port.

Kachi is grateful for the kindness of the people of the Wave Country, and he restricts the area where outsiders can move in the Wave Country, and at the same time treats the trade within the Wave Country very favorably. At one time, it was even more powerful than the aid of the Vortex Country at that time, but it was decisively rejected by the villagers.

As for Kosuke, although he ensured the safety of the port to Kuchi, and he did help a lot these days, he also chose not to live in the port, and his residence was not even clear to the people of the Vortex Country, as if he had no fixed residence.

And on this day, when Kosuke was wandering around in the country of waves, he seemed to have encountered some situations.

In a large compound.

"Water Escape, Water Array Wall!"

Kosuke Yuki reluctantly used this defensive ninjutsu in a place where there was no water.

Why not use a more suitable earth flow wall? That's because waves of flickering cold light hidden weapons are already close at hand, and compared to the earth flow wall, Professor Kumma's water escape is much faster.

Barely blocked a wave of hidden weapons with the water array wall, and Kosuke, who had just climbed into the wall, was forced to jump away again.

"Tuk Tuk!"

The next moment, another wave of hidden weapons stuck to the ground one by one in another dead corner towards the place where Gusuke had just stood.

Kosuke frowned, he didn't expect that in the country of waves, which did not have a ninja system, he would be attacked like this in the country.

Although he was curious for a while, he didn't tell me first.

But the current situation is enough to show that his suspicions are at least partly correct.

The people living in this house are not ordinary Ha no Kuni villagers.

The owner of this wooden house with a large courtyard was an old man who worked in the port shipyard, and as far as he knew before, this old man had lived in the country of waves for several years, and his superb manufacturing skills shocked the boatmen originally hired by the country of waves from the beginning.

By now, he was already a celebrity in the shipyard, except that he did not seem to be interested in position and power, and as he got older, the old man also reduced the time he spent in the shipyard, but the craftsmen did not respect him in the slightest.

Not only that, but with his wealth of knowledge and skills, the old man helped the people of the country of waves in many ways, and also took in a few children who wanted to learn the craft, but he did not want to accept them as official disciples.

Even so, the old man is also famous in this country of waves, and his level of respect is second only to that of Vorkage-sama.

Originally, such a talent was still a very old man, and Kosuke would not doubt it.

However, at a chance meeting a few months ago, Kosuke felt the breath of a ninja in the other party's body - the presence of chakra on his body.

But even so, Gu Jie was between the other party's prestige and character, and he didn't make trouble on the spot, but just silently remembered it in his heart.

Until now, while the other party was going to the shipyard, there were no other apprentices in the house, and Kosuke finally made up his mind to find out, but he didn't expect to be attacked violently as soon as he entered.

With his nimble skills, Kosuke dodged the first wave of hidden weapon attacks.

Landing again, he came to another area, but was surrounded by a bunch of wooden dolls.

"Is this a puppetry?"

Kosuke looked at the squeaky puppet and whispered with a frown.

"No, there's no one around, and there's no chakra line manipulation." Kosuke then shook his head and denied.

"And, this number—" Kosuke cautiously looked at the wooden dolls slowly shrinking around, "and it doesn't seem like it can be controlled by a few people." ”

As soon as Kosuke's words fell, the wooden puppets attacked.

I saw that the arms of these wooden people turned, showing the sharp blades embedded in them, and then changed their previous clumsy way of moving, and launched a swift attack in unison.

Kosuke was taken aback, and hurriedly pulled out his saber, the blade of which kept shaking.

"Konoha Stream Swordsmanship! Fantasy! ”

Kosuke moved towards the wall as he struggled to fend off blades swinging in all directions.

"Damn, illusions are of no use to these dead things!"

The swordsmanship used by Kosuke, without the aid of illusion, can only block these blades that keep attacking.

Fortunately, he also moved to the corner of the wall, and no longer had to defend against attacks from all sides.

However, this is only a temporary stalemate, unless you give up exploring and withdraw from here, you must be the first to show flaws.

Kosuke's self-esteem didn't allow him to give up this rare opportunity on his own, and for this reason, he even distracted himself from thinking about countermeasures, ignoring the few scratches he received because of it.

"I remember that there seems to be a record on the scroll of Konoha of Vorkage-sama and Kagami-sama against the Sand Ninja. How did they solve it? ”

Kosuke vaguely grasped the answer.

"That's right! How did I ignore what Vortex gave me! ”

Kosuke's eyes lit up, and the speed of the whole person accelerated instantly, and before the wooden people could react, he went around behind one of them, holding a sword in one hand, and the other free hand lined up on the back of the wooden man, and then shouted softly:

"Sealing: Forbidden!"

The wooden man suddenly collapsed to the ground.

But at the same time, Kosuke was also half-kneeling on the ground, surrounded by wooden people who were eyeing him.
