Chapter 85 Water Country

It was not until noon that Yeshan completely got rid of the aggressive Tsunade, and he was extremely distressed.

This woman is really terrible. She wanted to smash his head with her fist just because she had used a little cold violence. I really don't know which unlucky guy will marry her in the future.

I heard that Jiraiya was quite interested in her...

Ye Shan refused to marry a ninja because the profession of ninja was too inhuman. Not only could they fly, spit fire and water, but they would also take out a kunai and wave it at your neck from time to time. Who could withstand that?

If conditions permit, Ye Shan wants to find a gentle and capable wife, so that not only can the family life be harmonious, but he can also devote himself to his career. Of course, if he can't find one, then he's just dreaming.

"Captain, when did you offend her?"

Although there was no third person around, Ye Shan's old teammate and subordinate Yamashiro Tatsuya still looked around cautiously and asked in a low voice.

Ye Shan remained silent. Theoretically, he had not offended Tsunade, at least that kind of question and answer could not be considered an offense; but in reality, given the arrogant character of female ninjas, especially Tsunade, Ye Shan had indeed offended someone...

"have no idea..."

There was a hint of grievance in his tone. Ye Shan felt aggrieved, but he didn't take it to heart. If he couldn't beat him, he could still run away. He was not panicked at all.

"What is the mission this time?" Shancheng Chen obviously saw that the captain didn't want to talk about this topic, so he tactfully asked about the mission.

Ye Shan took out the scroll, unfolded it and looked at it, then frowned, but handed the scroll to Shancheng Chen without saying anything.

"Sure enough, it's another mission to hunt down the rebel ninja, but this time the mission location is actually in the Land of Water."

Yamashiro Tatsu's face looked a little solemn. The two of them had completed seven or eight missions of hunting down rebellious ninjas in the past year. Each time they completed it easily with the strength of Hayama, so Akagi Shohei said that this was a good mission.

But the location of the mission was actually the Land of Water, which gave Yamashiro Tatsu some headaches. Everyone in the ninja world knew that the Land of Water was an extremely closed country, and except for the ninjas of the country, ninjas from other countries were strictly prohibited from coming and going.

The Water Kingdom is an island country consisting of a large island and hundreds of small islands. It is not only isolated overseas but also extremely far away from the mainland. It is a typical remote country.

In fact, if the Land of Water had not intervened in every Ninja World War, it could have just sat back and watched other countries fight to the death. But the Daimyo and Mizukage of the Land of Water said that if they did not participate in the Ninja World War, they would not be worthy of being one of the five great nations...

The remote geographical location and the densely-covered river network did not make the Water Country a paradise for renegade ninjas. On the contrary, renegade ninjas from various countries first ruled out the option of going to the Water Country for refuge. There was only one reason for this, that is, the Water Country was too xenophobic. Once they found ninjas from other countries entering the country, they would definitely send ninjas to hunt them down until they died.

In the Land of Water, unless you can go without sleep, food or water and stay fully alert at all times, it is easy to die in the mysterious Mist Hidden Assassination Technique.

Ye Shan also had a headache, secretly cursing the traitor who had sneaked into the Water Country. Why did he have to run to the Water Country when there were other places to run to? There was no other way, he had to complete the mission after accepting it, and he thought that as long as he was careful, there should be no danger.

Before setting off, Ye Shan specially prepared some dry food, detonating tags, ninja tools and other mission necessities. It is always a good idea to be safe, and these things are not expensive for Ye Shan anyway.

......

In the southernmost part of the Fire Country's territory, there is a border defense force composed of the Hyuga clan and the Uchiha clan. The number of people is small, only a hundred or so, but they have caused great trouble to the Kirigakure ninjas.

This team is nominally under the jurisdiction of the Hokage, but since all its members are bloodline ninjas, the Hokage's orders naturally don't work very well here. The orders of the family patriarchs are still more deterrent.

As the supreme commander of hundreds of people, Uchiha Keiji possesses considerable power on the border. He has a stern face and is extremely majestic all day long, but today he is unusually enthusiastic.

"Come on, Yeshan, you must try this dish. You can't eat it in the village." Uchiha Keiji picked up a piece of food for Yeshan with chopsticks and greeted him with a smile.

Ye Shan smiled slightly, picked up the dish and put it in his mouth. After tasting it carefully, he found that the food was unusually refreshing and crisp, which made him very hungry. He couldn't help but ask: "Brother Keiji, what is this made of?"

Uchiha Keiji, who had met Ye Shan once, laughed and said, "This is the specialty of the Hidden Mist Village - shrimp abalone!"

A ninja sitting next to Uchiha Keiji saw that Ye Shan did not understand the preciousness of the food, and added: "Although the green shrimp abalone is a type of abalone, it has extremely harsh growth conditions. That is, only in areas where the three-tailed abalone appears can this abalone survive!"

A look of surprise appeared on Ye Shan's face. No wonder Uchiha Keiji concluded that there was no such food in Konoha Village. This creature could only appear in the waters where the Three-Tail had lived. It was extremely precious.

"Brother Keiji, this is so precious."

Uchiha Keiji waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "It's a rare occasion for you to come to my place, so I will naturally treat you with the best."

In fact, the reason why Uchiha Keiji treated Hayama, a foreign ninja, so well was not only because he was very powerful, but also because Hayama was a good friend and confidant of Uchiha Fugaku.

Although the Uchiha clan must have weakened a lot before, it still has a lot of coveted political resources and territorial resources. Uchiha Keiji is naturally unwilling to stay at the seaside for his whole life to be on guard against the movements of Kirigakure. He also wants to go further, preferably to be transferred back to the village to work in the security department.

It is a fact that Uchiha Fugaku will be the next clan leader. Not only that, after the elderly great elder passes away, he will become the most powerful clan leader of the Uchiha clan in the past 30 years, so Uchiha Keiji entertained Yeshan in this way.

Ye Shan knew this very well, but he did not refuse. He had a very good impression of Uchiha Keiji and felt that he was someone who could be used.

After eating and drinking, they drank tea and rested in the house. Ye Shan then told the details of the mission, hoping that Uchiha Keiji could provide some help.

Uchiha Keiji pondered for a while and shook his head.

"It's not that I won't help you, but every ninja in the camp has a bloodline and must not take risks inside the Land of Water."

Ye Shan didn't know whether to laugh or cry. The other party obviously misunderstood his meaning. He immediately laughed and said, "What are you thinking, brother Keiji? How could I make a request that would embarrass you?"

"I just want a way to sneak into the Water Kingdom safely. I hope you can give me some advice."

Ye Shan understood very clearly that on the long border, Uchiha Keiji was the real boss, and both the white and black worlds were definitely under his control.

"Huh, I thought it was something else!? This is easy to handle. There will be a smuggling ship heading to the Water Country in three days at most. Then I will just follow it."

Ye Shan showed a satisfied smile and thanked him repeatedly. He didn't even ask which smuggling ship it was.

Asking this kind of question would make one seem to have a problem with his IQ. Ye Shan could tell with his toes that it was a smuggling ship of the Uchiha clan, otherwise where did the top-quality abalone he ate today come from?

Although the Uchiha clan's smuggling activities were illegal, as long as they were not exposed, it was a golden way to make money. They exchanged the clan's excess products such as detonating tags, ninja tools, and food for pearls and seafood unique to the Land of Water, and resold them for huge profits.

Without a few ways to make money, how could the Uchiha clan have the confidence to act as the ambassadors of distributing money in the village?

Ye Shan not only did not oppose the Uchiha clan's smuggling, he even encouraged them to smuggle. In his opinion, this behavior was beneficial to the entire Fire Country, at least it stimulated domestic consumption.

What interesting things will happen when those nobles who are immersed in enjoyment suddenly find out one day that they can no longer enjoy the specialties of the Water Kingdom?

Maybe there will be a war.
