"I also remember, and... there have been reports of ships running aground recently. Everyone said that Cardo had done too many bad things and was punished by heaven, but now it seems... the truth may not be that simple. "

Hinata's white eyes flashed for a moment, and then she followed Kakashi's narrative as if nothing had happened. Obviously, as someone who knew the truth, she knew very well that this was because Kakuzu and the others had gradually perfected the reef chain, and Judging from the activity of those sharks, Kisame is also working very hard. This country of waves has indeed become an isolated island on the water.

"What's going on? We still need to hear the news from Mr. Dazna and the others. Now don't run around anymore. I have a bad feeling."

Frowning, Kakashi did feel uneasy. The last time he had such a bad feeling was a long time ago.

When the sun had just set, Dazna returned to the house with a solemn look. Obviously, it could be seen from his expression that what he brought back was not good news.

"What's going on? Did something bad happen? Is there any conclusion that those ships have frequently hit the rocks recently?"

Kakashi's question was straight to the point. Obviously, he urgently needed some information to support his guess.

"Ah...I was just about to tell you that this country...it seems that reefs are popping up under the surrounding sea recently..."

After sorting out his words, Dazna's tone was also extremely difficult. It was obvious that he felt extremely embarrassed and unbelievable about such remarks.

"Huh? A reef grows from the bottom of the sea? Is this growing carrots?"

Naruto, who stared wide-eyed, looked confused. This kind of thing still felt like a fairy tale to him.

"I know it's strange to say this, but...this is the conclusion everyone has come to after observing these days..."

Dazna put down the teacup in his hand uneasily. What he discovered not only made him feel incredible, but also gave him a considerable sense of fear.

"But the fact is that many reefs have mysteriously appeared under the sea around the Country of Waves. Someone wanted to go out by boat this afternoon, but they were blocked by the reefs. They said that the reefs seemed to form a Like a belt, it surrounds the entire Kingdom of Waves... We..."

"It's probably impossible to get out now..."

————————

"What? That ship sank too?"

Cardo's voice was as sharp as a duck because he was too surprised. For him, the past week has been almost like a gap from heaven to hell.

Cardo, who was originally ambitious and had actually taken the Kingdom of Waves into his hands, not only discovered that a Dazuna appeared in his country who insisted on building a bridge, but also a strange thing happened where the sea was automatically blocked by a reef.

Thinking back to the evil ghost murders that still frightened him, Cardo, who was originally greedy for the Kingdom of Waves, now only has the feeling of wanting to escape here quickly.

"It's unmistakable, Mr. Zabuza. Although I'm not sure who is behind it, I secretly walked around the sea today, and I can already confirm that the country of Waves is completely surrounded by reefs."

Bai's voice was also filled with a sense of anxiety. This feeling of being locked up in a place like a rat was the worst situation for any ninja.

"If you want to surround the entire country with hidden reefs, the only people with this ability are shadow-level earth escape ninjas, but...so far we haven't caught any news about this group of people...It seems that they also They don’t want anyone to mess up their plans.”

Zabuza also felt an inexplicable threat. As a jounin, he still knew how terrifying the strength of shadow-level ninjas was. When it comes to rebel ninjas, only rebel ninjas with shadow-level strength can be called S-level. Rebellious ninja, and the most vivid explanation of this level of rebelling and ninja strength is that it can have the strength to slaughter a small country on its own!

"Where are you talking to yourself?! Can you find those people and kill them? This country of waves is mine!"

Angrily, he walked to Zabuza with his cane. Kado was obviously a little sick and wanted to seek medical treatment, but at this time, he had no choice but to place his hope on the Kirigakure Seven Ninja Swordsman. .

"You should feel lucky. If it hadn't been for that old man named Dazna to build that bridge, you might never have been able to leave this country. So, now do you want me to kill that old man, or do you want to change A mission? Like, get your pathetic idiot out of the country?”

Zabuza looked at Kado in front of him with contempt. As a rebellious nin, he didn't have many choices. Zabuza and Haku had nothing to accept the rebellious nin who originally escaped from Kirigakure Village because of the failed assassination of the Mizukage. In particular, the hunting teams in Kirigakure Village are notoriously cruel and cold-blooded. Even someone as strong as Zabuza would not want to encounter those guys frequently.

This is one of the reasons why the rebel ninjas cannot loot as much as they want. After all, as long as there is a disturbance somewhere, it will quickly attract the attention of other ninjas, and they can follow the clues to find the people who did these things.

Zabuza can certainly kill Cardo with one strike, but before that, the country of Waves is unimpeded. If he kills Cardo here, it is very likely that he will attract the pursuit team from Kirigakure Village in a short time, so he will keep it between his legs. Tails take on tasks and work in private, which is the most conducive way to hide their identity.

After all, the heads of traitorous ninjas usually mean money, and plundering and massacres will attract a lot of attention. It would not be fun if someone continues to add bounties and assassination commissions to your head in anger. things.

Unless the combat power reaches the shadow level or super shadow level, such as Orochimaru, who can destroy a small country by himself, then he may not be targeted so easily. But... this is not certain. After all, there is a hell-level hunter like Kakuzu who specializes in staring at the heads of criminals with high bounties.

"Damn it!! Is there no other way?? This is the country that I finally got!"

The fat all over Cardo's body was trembling slightly because of heartache. This action undoubtedly showed what is called "meatache". Moreover, as a black-hearted businessman who has done many evil things, if he leaves the nest that protects him, what will he encounter in the outside world? What kind of revenge and annexation can be imagined.

"Unless you want to be eaten like a mouse here, otherwise, I will not accompany you."

Even if Zabuza has ninja ethics, he knows that Mingzhe's first priority is to protect himself at this time. He has the confidence to continue fighting with Kakashi, but if you add the shadow-level earth escape ninja who doesn't know where he is hiding, this will Things get difficult.

It is very likely that both he and Kakashi will be injured, and others will come out and take advantage of it. When there is a third party with unknown intentions, you must not rashly fight the enemy. This is the case for all ninjas. The most fearful thing.

"Damn it! Even if you say so! If the surrounding sea is blocked, how can we escape?"

Comparing his money and his life, Cardo reluctantly chose the latter in the end. After all, he was a human profiteer, not a goblin profiteer. At this time, life was indeed more important.

"This is not a problem, so I said you should be grateful that Dazna built that bridge. If you can't walk on the sea, just walk on that bridge."

Having said that, Zabuza shook his fingers slightly. If the group of people hiding behind the scenes really planned to cut off the sea traffic in the country of Waves, there is no reason why they wouldn't think that the bridge was the last way. Just like when catching a mouse, you use smoke to seal off the remaining passages, and then block the cage at the last passage. Even if you know that you will rush into the cage this way, you have no choice.

But in the woods, a black crow was looking at the house where Zabuza was sitting from a distance. Its eyes were completely different from ordinary crows, and were a red color similar to blood.

"Earth Escape, Rock Pillar Prison Technique!"

With Kakuzu's low drink, the chakra turned into a substantial rock under the influence of the Ninja Seal, slowly rising from the bottom of the sea, and then stopped about one meter away from the water. Its tip was deliberately shaped into a sharp point. The blade is sharp enough to cut through the bottom of any ship.

"Ah~ It looks like it's basically finished~"

Hidan stood aside and moved his head boredly: "Speaking of which, this should be the last sea route, right?"

"No~ there is still a waterway under the bridge that is not closed, and they seem to have noticed what we did."

After observing the surrounding waters, Kisame next to him stretched out his hand to bite his finger, and then quickly formed a seal: "Psychic! Reef shark!"

Several gray-white reef sharks appeared with a bang accompanied by Kisame's psychic, and then quickly dived into the area designated for them by Kisame in the water. Under the restraint of psychic, these reef sharks will use the surrounding as their habitat. They can hunt on the ground and hunt on their own around. This is the sea after all, so there is no need to worry about lack of food.

If there are any side effects, it is that the surrounding sea area is definitely not suitable for human activities. Fishermen and the like should not plan to hang out in it if they don't want to be fish food.

"However, the remaining problem now is. The Seven Ninja Sword named Zabuza seems to be planning to leave the Country of Waves with his employer through this bridge."

Itachi, who was sitting on a rock on one side, opened his eyes slightly, and then expressed the information he had obtained without expression. Obviously, Zabuza did not have the ability to monitor the Akatsuki organization, but that did not mean that the Akatsuki organization did not have the ability to monitor him. Because Kado and Zabuza are considered the final bosses of the Land of Waves, the Akatsuki organization naturally has to pay close attention to their movements.

"Huh? Isn't this troublesome? Didn't Mercury Lamp say that she should leave these guys to her? Alas, that's why I said, just kill those guys."

Hidan waved his hand lazily, which made Kakuzu raise his head slightly: "Well...it depends on what she does. If she can't catch up in time, we can clean up those two guys for her. alright."

"After all, whether it is the head of one of Kirigakure's Seven Ninja Swordsmen or the businessman named Kado, they are all very valuable things. No matter what..."

"It's impossible for them to leave this cage created by the Akatsuki organization alive."

reward

Well, I originally wanted to act more secretly, but... Judging from the current situation, there are still some flaws. After all, the emergence of reefs may not attract attention at first, but if the number of reefs increases and ships continue to hit rocks and sink in the original safe channel, it is natural that such a situation will attract investigation. .

Hinata, who closed her eyes slightly, did have a very fresh feeling. After all, for her, this was the first time she encountered a "world-specific" event in the Naruto world, although she did make good use of Kakuzu's earth escape ability. , to artificially create reefs to block the channel, but as expected, mistakes were made due to lack of experience.
