Chapter 159
Chapter 159
The Land of Whirlpools is located overseas, and the only way to get there from the Land of Fire is by sea.
On the day of departure, Shen Yue was indeed wearing only the simplest clan uniform, and was accompanied by Madara, Hinata, Momoka, a large group of Uchiha and Senju people, Hashirama who finally stopped looking after the house after much persuasion, Tobirama's shadow clone, and the little daimyo who was forcibly pulled over to act as a mascot.
The little ones who were taken by the adults to see the world for the first time to leave the Land of Fire were so excited that they stuffed their pockets and bags with snacks, especially Shen Yue. She used the same trick again, stuffed Kurama and Shukaku into her schoolbag, and secretly took the little pet with her.
After leaving Konoha, the group happily ran to the nearest seaport, eating and drinking along the way, which looked more like a spring outing than a diplomatic trip to the Land of Whirlpools.
Shen Yue was very curious about what kind of ship they were going to take to the Land of Whirlpools, and when she really saw the ship, Shen Yue was so surprised that her eyes almost popped out——
A huge thing stood by the harbor, surrounded by black smoke, it was a large ship that was about to set off.
This is a steamship, this, this is too powerful, right? How come there are all kinds of things in the ninja world?
Shen Yue stared at this exaggerated ship, and felt that her worldview was refreshed. How come even a large ship appeared?
"The ship you asked me to make last time, this is the real thing."
Tobirama appeared behind Shen Yue at some point, and seeing Shen Yue's surprised look, he felt a little secretly happy in his heart.
It was worth it that he gave her the huge ship that he had spent a lot of money on in the Artisan Ninja Village and spent a whole year to build.
However, it was really expensive to build ships and ninja tools in the Artisan Ninja Village. Now he still felt a pain when he thought about it. After Konoha's own factory officially started production, he would no longer have to spend money on such places.
When he has time, he must think about the mass production of scientific ninja tools.
It must be said that Kakuzu's talent is indeed admirable. Since he came to Konoha, he has really shared a large part of Tobirama's work. Tobirama finally has time to think about how to make ninjutsu and inventions.
Unfortunately, Kakuzu has always been loyal to Takigage Village, so Tobirama naturally cannot give him the most core work and account books.
Of course, you have to dig thoroughly to recruit people. The black-hearted Tobirama has already begun to think about how to get Kakuzu to switch to Konoha. From the information that was dug out of Kakuzu, he keenly noticed that the attitude of the high-level people in Takigakure Village towards Kakuzu was more fearful.
......
On this majestic ship, a group of children who grew up inland and rarely get close to the ocean cheered and ran around on the deck excitedly. Even the adults were surprised. It was the first time they had seen such a big ship.
However, when the big ship really broke through the waves, everyone who was on the ship for the first time was shocked and dizzy. The bumps on the sea and the shaking of the ship made many people feel scared. It took them a while to recover.
Standing on the edge of the deck, Shen Yue, who was holding Kurama and Shukaku in her arms, looked at the flocks of seagulls in the sky and the sparkling sea. Countless flying fish jumped up from the sea and sank into the seabed in a blink of an eye. The scenery was so beautiful that it was intoxicating.
Behind her, the Uchiha cubs, the four apprentices of Tobirama, and the students of the ninja school were running around the deck, with laughter and laughter.
After playing to exhaustion, they sat on the ground, took out the Konoha cards they carried with them, and started a fierce duel.
Compared with the children who were almost going crazy playing, the adults were much busier. This big ship had just been launched and the crew was quite short. Under the captain's order, no matter you were the God of Ninja, the Shura of the Ninja World, or the big moneymaker who bought this ship, you could only help him honestly.
After finally letting this broken ship sail smoothly to the sea, Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama were able to find time to step onto the deck. As a result, when they got out of the cabin, they saw this group of naughty children playing cards happily. When they recognized the familiar cards at a glance, Madara's anger surged up instantly.
Like all strict teachers, he really hated students who lost their ambition due to playing with things. When he was in class at the Ninja School, if anyone dared to play cards under his nose, he would beat them up and confiscate the deck.
"Banara, let's play a game too!"
Not noticing Banara's ugly face, Hashirama happily took out the deck he carried with him, including some rare decks. The Senju Tobirama that Miki had drawn before was in his deck.
After opening a hundred card packs in a row but only drawing D-level cards, Hashirama had a sudden realization and completely embarked on the path of buying good cards that others had already drawn.
Although buying ready-made cards is really expensive, letting him draw card packs is really just a waste of money.!
Seeing his best friend's eager eyes, Uchiha Madara was silent for a moment, and then he also took out a deck from the scroll he carried with him. Hashirama was very jealous of those rare cards, but Madara had never bought a card pack. All these cards were confiscated from students.
When he was bored in private, he actually liked to play one or two games with Hashirama, Shenyue, and Huohe. He had to admit that it was no wonder that so many people were addicted to it. This game was really interesting.
When Tobirama walked out of the cabin, he saw his elder brother and Madara sitting on the deck and addicted to playing cards, as well as a group of unlucky children around him who were also addicted to it!
Tobirama's forehead twitched twice, and he was speechless.
Since the launch of Konoha Cards, his elder brother has not been addicted to gambling, but has become addicted to playing cards!
But Konoha's underground casino is actually Tobirama's assets. If his elder brother doesn't gamble anymore in the future, how can he make money from his elder brother?
Unable to continue to make money from his elder brother, Tobirama felt disappointed. His laboratory was really expensive. But just when he was upset, Shen Yue, the culprit, suddenly sneaked up to him. He lowered his head to look at her, and saw that she pointed to the sea with expectation. To be precise, it was actually the seafood in the sea.
"Seafood, I want to eat seafood!"
"...."
Senju Tobirama's face twitched a few times, but looking at Shen Yue's sparkling big eyes and cute rose-pink face, he could only sigh helplessly in the end.
He might be born to be a nanny...
Take out the kitchen utensils from the scroll, Tobirama used the materials on the spot, and easily caught a lot of fresh sea fish from the nearby sea with water escape.
After cleaning the internal organs skillfully, he built a simple grill, sprinkled the secret seasoning, and began to grill the sea fish. He also selected the fattest parts of several fish and carefully cut them into sashimi, ready to enjoy sashimi. Finally, he set up a pot, put in sea fish, spices, kelp and lemon slices, and stewed a pot of fragrant seafood soup.
The aroma of grilled fish and seafood soup spread, instantly attracting the attention of everyone on the deck.
The cards in everyone's hands suddenly lost their appeal, and they all looked at Shen Yue and her two little pets feasting on the food. After sucking their saliva, they turned to look pitifully at the chef Tobirama who cooked for her.
Seeing this scene, Tobirama had no choice but to wave his hand helplessly and let them all come over to eat, while he continued to fish and grill fish for these foodies without complaint.
"Master Tobirama's cooking skills are great!"
"Yes, I think he can open a restaurant!"
"Hehe, if Master Tobirama opens a restaurant, I will definitely visit it every day."
After listening to the undisguised praise from these kids, Tobirama's face darkened a little. He was a deputy of the Thousand Hands and an assistant to the Hokage. If he really fell to the point of being a cook, he might as well die!
But looking at the innocent smiles of these children, he finally said nothing, but just told them:
"Eat it all, don't waste it."
In the end, except for Uchiha Madara, everyone ate the seafood feast prepared by Tobirama.
......
After drifting on the sea for a long time, until Shen Yue was tired of eating seafood feasts, the ship finally ended its long journey and slowly docked.
The moment they finally saw the coastline, the children who had completely lost their novelty to the sea were all happy and crazy, and the adults also breathed a sigh of relief, as if they were reborn.
But when they really landed, they were disappointed to find that this place was not the rich place they imagined. Shen Yue was deeply shocked by the poverty of her future fiefdom. She now seriously suspected that Mitohime had offered to surrender in order to drag her down!
Sure enough, there is no free lunch in the world.
Although the country of whirlpools is a small country with few people and has an excellent geographical location, it has chosen to isolate itself from the world and never participate in maritime trade. Instead, it is as obsessed with farming as the country of fire. However, such a small country can only grow a little food in a year, but the whirlpool clan is rich in super big eaters...
No wonder Mitohime really tried every way to make money when she was in Konoha, and then sent every penny she earned back to her hometown. Before returning home this time, she worked non-stop to make scrolls. It turned out that the country of whirlpools was really so poor that it couldn't even afford to eat!
In the only small port in the country of whirlpools, people have been looking forward to it, waiting for people from Konoha to come. During the warm but shabby welcome ceremony, Shen Yue looked carefully and found that in addition to the red-haired Uzumaki, there were also several brown-haired and black-haired people wearing Senju tribe uniforms. These were all Senju tribe members who came here through marriage.
On the way to UzushiogakureOn the way to the village, everyone was talking happily. Shen Yue also learned from these carefree red-haired people that they didn't really care about the old patriarch being driven out of office. Instead, they expressed their enthusiastic support for Mitohime taking over the position of patriarch, and they had no objection to the Uzumaki Kingdom becoming Shen Yue's fiefdom.
"The old patriarch didn't do a bad job, but he lived, uh no, worked for too long. If he continues to work, he will really work for a hundred years!"
Talking about their old patriarch who had long lived like an antique, the red-haired people who led the way seemed quite helpless and shook their heads.
Since Mitohime went to Konoha, she has been sending food and supplies, trying her best to ensure the food and clothing of the tribe members. In comparison, following the old patriarch can only have one meal a day.
The stomach determines the position, and Mitohime is the strongest person in the Uzumaki clan. It's really a no-brainer to choose who to support.
In fact, before Mitohime went to Konoha, she had already accumulated a considerable number of supporters in the Uzumaki clan, but they could not resist the fact that Uzumaki Ashina wanted to marry Senju Hashirama.
Even though Hashirama himself had no intention of marrying him, and even refused many times, he was determined to give his most talented daughter to him, which had already made everyone in the clan quite dissatisfied.
Whose clan leader would think about marrying off the strongest person in his family all day long? Isn't this pure brain damage?
No matter how powerful Senju Hashirama is, his last name is still Senju, and he has a whole village to worry about. Only Mitohime, who was born and raised in Uzumaki, would really take the Uzumaki Country and the Uzumaki clan to heart.
Putting the fate of the clan completely on outsiders is the reason why the Uzumaki clan members are really disappointed with Uzumaki Ashina.
