Chapter 566 Stubborn and Stupid
There is no village or shop in the sea, and the profit is huge, so a profession naturally emerged.
Pirates.
Pirates are a mixed bag, and you don’t even know which force the other party is from.
It may even be the force of the Water Country.
The Water Country originally relied on maritime trade to support itself, and pirates are the biggest bloodsuckers for the Water Country.
Pirates only rob things and don’t kill people, and they will leave some of the goods with you, so that you don’t lose much.
In the past, few people dared to rob the ships of the Water Country.
It was because of the blood mist name of Kirigakure that everyone was crazy and had super strong combat power.
But Obito lost all the foundation of Kirigakure during those years of stirring up trouble.
The people of Kirigakure died or fled, and the blood-inherited families of the Water Country were wiped out one by one.
Later, Kumogakure also presided over the invasion of the Water Country.
Although Kumogakure was finally repelled, Kirigakure exposed the fact that its family background was weak.
Sea routes are originally under the jurisdiction of whichever country is close to.
The control of the surrounding waters by the Water Country is now in a straight decline.
Unless you have the ability to make the final decision, you can't defeat pirates with a small number of people.
If you send a large force to encircle and suppress them, they will slip away.
As soon as your encirclement and suppression personnel leave, they will come back again.
The Thunder Country and the Water Country have fought a battle, and now they have a laissez-faire attitude towards pirates on the sea.
As long as they don't rob the ships of the Thunder Country, Yunyin will turn a blind eye.
But it is precisely because of the connivance of the Thunder Country that pirates have a tendency to become increasingly rampant.
These pirates are very cunning, and basically only rob merchant ships of the Water Country.
Who made you weak? Weak countries have no diplomacy.
On this route, only by hiring enough guards can merchant ships be protected from being disturbed.
The Chamber of Commerce of the Water Country hired more guards, so the benefits are thin.
And because of the bad relationship between Kumogakure and Kirigakure, if the Chamber of Commerce of the Land of Water wants to pass through the route of the Land of Thunder, it needs to pay a huge escort fee.
You have to pay it, and you have to be escorted.
Because you may meet people from the Land of Thunder, who are Jinchūriki.
In front of Jinchūriki, no matter how many guards there are, they are just decorations.
The merchant ships of the Land of Water cannot be beaten or escaped.
In fact, the Land of Thunder is not bad. It can obviously be robbed, but it insists on saying it is an escort fee.
Of course, if you don't resist, Kumogakure will not kill people indiscriminately.
If you pay the money obediently, they will let you go, and even escort you for a while.
But what Kumogakure takes away is basically 70 to 80 percent of the profit.
The merchant caravans of the Land of Water suffered heavy losses.
But even if the Daimyo of the Land of Water protests, it is useless. Kumogakure did not kill people. It was all money collected in the name of escort fees.
There are only so many safe routes in the ocean, and you can't go around in circles if you want.
If you want to go around, you may enter a dangerous channel.
There are many unknown dangers in those seas, even unknown giant marine creatures.
If you rashly take those routes, the entire fleet may be lost.
But the merchant caravans of the Water Country are not stupid. If there is no one in Kirigakure, it won't work.
Then you can find Yaoyin next to Kirigakure.
Uchiha, a golden signboard.
And I heard that the relationship between Uchiha and Kumogakure is not bad.
Even the Uchiha ocean-going fleet bought high-end ships from the Thunder Country.
After the merchant caravans of the Water Country tried it, they found it was true.
Kumogakure always gave Uchiha face and gave less money, so they let it go without fighting.
Other pirates did not dare to rob because there were Uchiha guarding the ships.
As a result, there were countless tasks to invite Uchiha to escort the fleet.
Although a team can be responsible for a fleet.
But there are only so many Uchiha people.
This is a country of the Water Country, and all fleets have needs.
There are only so many people in the Uchiha clan. Your merchant ships only take ten days or half a month for a short trip, and three to six months for a long trip.
Many Uchiha clan members are not willing to take such a task.
If there is no Uchiha clan.
The route from the Land of Water to the Land of Lightning is basically in a situation where it can be run, but the risk is very high.
There is no rebellion in the Land of Water.
But restoring production is always much more difficult than destroying it.
When Obito killed people, he killed one clan after another, and many civilians were killed and injured in the rebellion.
Now the rebellion has been quelled, and Mei Terumi's regime has been stabilized, but the recovery of people's livelihood is quite slow.
Whether it is Mizukage Mei Terumi, or Zabuza and Juzo Biwa who returned to Kirigakure, their strength is relatively low.
When the younger generation has not grown up yet.
The fastest way to increase international influence is to find the Jinchūriki back.
So these Kirigakure Anbu want to tie Yugao back even if they have to tie him up.
Yugao, this Jinchūriki, has fluctuating strength.
Because he is not a perfect Jinchūriki, he cannot be completely tailed at any time.
The person who is best at dealing with Yugao in Kirigakure is Ken.
His secret technique, Rain Cutting, can directly invalidate ninjutsu that is exposed to rain.
It can restrain Yugao's bubbles, but it can restrain Yugao from blowing bubbles, not Yugao's tailed beast transformation.
Look, he was beaten up and is still lying in bed.
"Okay, I know the general situation."
Xia Mu understood almost everything, and used the summoning beast again.
Summon the crows.
Minato has sent the map of Tsuchigumo Village.
"Wait here, I'll bring Yugao here."
"I've been studying ice escape recently. How many ice escape techniques do you have in Kirigakure? Let Terumi Mei prepare one for me."
Kirigakure's Snow Clan has been exterminated. Now the preciousness of ice escape techniques has plummeted.
After giving instructions to Kirigakure, Xia Mu flew away directly from the sky.
Kirigakure's Anbu definitely doesn't have ice escape techniques. Just report it. They don't need to worry about it.
Xia Mu was in the sky, checking the map and flying towards Tsuchigumo Village.
He didn't bring these Kirigakure because he was worried that Yugao would run away again.
It was much more convenient for him to do things alone.
There was no obstacle at all when flying in the sky, and Xia Mu had a map in his hand.
He flew for about an hour, but he still didn't find Tsuchigumo Village.
But he found a person standing in a bubble in the sky.
Good guy, I searched for him everywhere, but I didn't expect to bump into him head-on.
Yu Gao looked like a melancholy young man, looking up at the starry sky at a 45-degree angle.
But he found that the moon was blocked by someone.
There are only a handful of people who can fly in the entire ninja world, and Yu Gao hasn't met anyone who can fly for many years.
"Yu Gao, right?" Xia Mu's slightly teasing voice came.
Yu Gao didn't know Xia Mu, and he didn't even know Xia Mu's forehead protector.
Yu Gao has been isolated from the world for a long time. He knows about the founding of the Uchiha country, but he doesn't know what the forehead protector of the Yaoyin Village looks like.
"Who are you?"
Although there was no tension, Yu Gao clearly felt that the person on the other side was targeting him.
Yu Gao had taken out his bubble blowing device, probably wanting to run away again.
Xia Mu didn't answer him. Seeing that Yu Gao showed signs of running away, he stretched out his finger.
Thunder escape, thunder gun.
A bright light flashed, and the bubbles on Yu Gao's body broke directly.
Yu Gao fell directly from the sky.
Yugao tapped the tree below to relieve the impact of falling and landed safely.
Xia Mu also flew down at this time.
As Yugao looked over, Xia Mu opened his Sharingan.
A pair of blood-red eyes reflected in Yugao's eyes.
The space around Yugao instantly turned dark red.
And two huge nails appeared on his body.
Nailed him in place.
The shackle technique!
The illusion that Itachi used to freeze Orochimaru.
When Xia Mu's Eternal Mangekyō was used, the power was naturally doubled.
It turned out to be the Mangekyō Sharingan.
The six-tailed Yugao struggled hard, but the illusion didn't move at all.
"Who are you from the Uchiha clan?"
"Sorry, I'm worried that you'll run around, so I can only leave you here."
"I'm Uchiha Xia Mu."
Yugao didn't struggle anymore, he still knew the name.
"What are you doing to me, the head of the Uchiha clan?"
Yugao asked with a cold face.
Xia Mu shrugged:
"Kirigakure has issued a mission to find you back to Kirigakure."
Yu Gao was speechless.
"With your identity, you don't need to lie to me, right?"
Xia Mu chuckled:
"Then don't worry about it. You just need to know that I am here to catch you."
"The Land of Water is in this state now, and you are still wandering around."
"Why don't you go back?"
Yu Gao's face darkened, but he didn't say a word.
Xia Mu didn't have time to talk nonsense with Yu Gao, who was out of his mind.
"Do you think your master wants to kill you?"
Yu Gao lowered his eyelids: "Did the sword tell you?"
Xia Mu shook his head: "Are you sure your master wants to kill you?"
Yu Gao raised his head and frowned and asked: "What do you mean?"
Xia Mu laughed sarcastically: "Stupid and stubborn."
Yu Gao stared at Xia Mu, but Xia Mu was prepared.
He turned his Sharingan, and the surging pupil power rushed over.
Yu Gao's eyes lost focus.
