Chapter 395 Negligence

The so-called "negotiation", when one party has other intentions than this, the conditions used as a cover-up are no longer important.

Shortly after "Daimaru" put forward the conditions, the representative of the chamber of commerce named "Iyu" introduced by Jounin Centipede agreed without any comments.

The other party's impatient attitude surprised "Daimaru" even if he didn't have the ulterior motives of Deidara, the Red Sand Scorpion, or the memory of the spy.

Daimaru's original body thought that the puppet that replaced him would be able to express a little doubt about the unexpected development.

The result is a bit embarrassing. The smooth sailing for more than a year has concealed the fact that his nature is not particularly good.

Without the intelligence advantage of foresight, "Daimaru"'s impatience and reckless mentality dominated his behavior, and the choices he made made even the secretly observing entity sigh.

His unfailing genius performance in the past was not his true ability, but now the choice of the puppet Daimaru has revealed Daimaru's actual level.

The Jounin Centipede and the Chamber of Commerce representative Yi Yu who acted as "rivals" with Daimaru were not flawless, but "Daimaru" didn't find any of them and hurriedly wanted to go to the southern country to inspect the site.

Such a poor performance made Daimaru secretly sweat, and he didn't know if it would arouse the suspicion of the Red Sand Scorpion.

…

A week later, in a bay less than fifty kilometers away from the border between the Kingdom of Wind and the Kingdom of Sichuan, "Daimaru" stood on a small sand dune at a low altitude, looking at the calm sea, feeling extremely satisfied.

In the sparkling waves in the distance, scenes of sea animals playing occasionally emerged.

Since there are a lot of marine life here, the water quality must not be too bad, and the water access conditions are also good.

I asked the residents of the oasis not far away and found out that there is rarely too bad weather here, the temperature difference is not big throughout the year, there is drought and little rain, and there are few people.

Except for the occasional fishermen who stop to rest, almost no one comes here.

The conditions for building thermal power plants and desalination plants are good. The only drawback is that the water depth is insufficient and it is not a good harbor.

Fortunately, there are ninjas, so it is not a big problem to use the power of ninjutsu to slightly transform it.

The external conditions are definitely not bad. The rest depends on the nearby geological conditions and whether they are suitable for human settlement. It also depends on the water storage conditions, whether large reservoirs can be built, whether the degree of soil salinization is serious, etc.

As the first benchmark of the Daimaru Initiative, it is not enough to build factories and settlements, but also to have potential that people can see. After spending a lot of money on a superficial project, self-sufficiency cannot be achieved, so there is no It makes sense.

If you want to realize the grandiose words of going south to open up the ocean, you must at least turn this place into a small town full of vitality.

Because Jounin Centipede and Chamber of Commerce representative Iyu's mobility was too poor to keep up with "Daimaru"'s speed, they could only inspect it by themselves first.

"Let me see, this is the so-called natural underground cave, right?"

Holding a simple map in his hand, "Daimaru" finally found the place.

Many ninjas in Sand Hidden Village are good at sand ninjutsu and wind escape, and there are also some who are good at earth escape. If there is strong support from the village, it is not impossible to build a water storage reservoir.

But Daimaru doesn't have many resources at the moment. If there is a ready-made underground space, it can be transformed into a ready-made water storage reservoir with a little modification, which would be great.

Looking at the water intakes on the rock wall that looked like karez wells, Daimaru understood.

Many years ago, this was probably a very prosperous town, as evidenced by the traces of human activity buried in the surrounding sand.

Judging from the geological environment, the source of groundwater replenishment here is likely to come from the Kawa Country not far away. However, it is a pity that excessive extraction of groundwater seems to have caused irreversible consequences, causing places that were originally livable to be swallowed up by the desert. , became what it is today.

"That's good. At least it's not completely without foundation. This place has great potential..."

Perhaps, not only can it be transformed into an underground reservoir, but an emergency shelter can also be built.

"Daimaru", who was full of beautiful blueprints in his mind, was still a little wary when he wandered into the dark space. After a little inspection, he found no signs of danger. After hesitating for a while, he still walked in.

After passing through the tunnel of only twenty or thirty meters, a huge space appeared in front of "Daimaru". The traces of water erosion around it were not surprising, but some crystal clear crystals inlaid at the bottom of the cave were really surprising. .

"There is such a thing in a place like this..."

These natural crystals clearly show signs of being mined.

Now that artificial glass has been widely used, it is naturally less precious, but some are still valuable.

Many years ago, natural crystals were a good thing, and it was not surprising that they were mined as precious gemstones.

Just when "Daimaru" was checking this place, out of the corner of his eye, he saw a suspicious shadow in the reflected light.

"Who's over there?"

Daiwan was suddenly startled and shouted sharply.

"Have you finally seen me?"

Deidara sat quietly on top of a flattened crystal and smiled wantonly,

"You are so vigilant. I really don't know how you got such a great reputation! That bad old man is really dying. Without me, he was defeated by a fool like you..."

"Deidara?"

"Dawan" was horrified in his heart, and an inexplicable ignored memory suddenly appeared in his mind.

"It's me, long time no see! I've been waiting for days for you. How can I vent my dissatisfaction by killing the guy who dares to make me and Brother Scorpion wait?"

Deidara, who was about to laugh, suddenly froze, unable to move as if his whole body was bound.

There was a flash of light, and "Daimaru" flashed across the space between the two people. His right palm was like a knife, piercing Deidara's abdomen, and then swept it diagonally, cutting his waist in half.

"Daimaru" who succeeded with one blow did not show any trace of pride, because the defeated enemy did not shed a trace of blood.

Deidara, who was almost severed, fell to the ground and turned into two ferocious monsters, rushing towards Daimaru.

"So fierce. If you don't pay attention, you can get hurt easily..."

At the entrance where Daimaru came, two figures, one tall and one short, appeared, and Deidara's joking voice came over.

"The art of detonating clay and manipulating spirits?"

Ignoring the detonating clay that was used as bait, Daimaru turned around and was about to rush out, but he ran into a barrier formed by magnetic release and sand iron floating in the air, blocking the way.

Looking at the sand iron surrounding him, "Daimaru" looked solemn.
