Naruto Shura Road

Most of the countries in the ninja world, no, I should say the countries in the Naruto world, can be regarded as countries that live up to their names.

Therefore, the Kingdom of Water is exactly as its name suggests. There is not much else but plenty of water.

Unlike countries on the mainland, the transportation in the Kingdom of Water is very unique.

Compared with the mainland countries that mainly rely on roads for transportation, water transportation is popular in the water country.

As an archipelagic country, not to mention water transportation between islands, only the interior of the islands is also densely covered with rivers.

Especially the main island of the Kingdom of Water, the largest island in the Naruto World, has such dense distribution of rivers that it is almost a natural water transportation network.

Someone once joked that the main island of the Kingdom of Water is actually made up of a lot of islands. Although it is just a joke, it also shows the development of the water transportation system. There are countless long rivers. Viewed from above, these rivers together with

The offshore waters between the islands divide the Kingdom of Water into pieces.

This geographical environment also makes the aristocratic system of the Kingdom of Water very different from other countries. The local aristocracy in this country is quite powerful, and the advantages of daimyo are far less obvious than in other countries. The hidden dangers of civil war in the Kingdom of Water are also buried because of this.

Understandably, the power of the local feudal lords is too great. When they unite, they can almost directly confront the Daming Prefecture.

The developed water culture has made the Water Kingdom a success, but it has also restricted the Water Kingdom. Everyone here is a born sailor and can act as a soldier with a little training. These large rivers and coastal waters are also natural barriers, although they are not as powerful as the sea.

, but it should not be underestimated. The biggest difference between water warfare and land warfare is here. It is normal for 100 soldiers who are extremely brave on land to be easily killed by 10 soldiers who are proficient in water warfare on the water. Pure quantity

Unless the disparity reaches a certain level, the power brought by the advantages will be severely reduced in water battles, especially after supernatural forces are added. Therefore, during the Warring States Period, this was once the country's most distributed place.

One of the densest areas, it is also the place where war breaks out most frequently.

This country can be unified into its current form entirely because of the existence of the Kirigakure. In this place, except Kirigakure, who uses water escape as the core of the ninjutsu system, no one can control the place. Konoha, who is known as the strongest

It doesn’t work anymore.

Therefore, even though Kirigakure ranks last among the five major villages, in terms of influence on the local area, it is the strongest among the five major villages. Mizukage's attitude is extremely important in the eyes of the Mizukage.

Kage is also the only Kage in the ninja world who directly participates in the formulation of national policies, which is in sharp contrast to the other four major Kages who rarely participate in national policies.

Of course, the crown does not belong to ninjas. Ninjas have no extra time to waste on things other than training and fighting. In fact, few previous generations of Mizukage would take the initiative to use this privilege. In their view,

If you have time to do this, it is better to use this time to practice.

Only this generation of Mizukage is special. This fourth-generation Mizukage, who has implemented strict management methods on the village since he took office, is completely different from the previous three. Not only does he participate, but he also participates very diligently...

But now, this special Mizukage seems to be making the Mist Ninjas unable to bear it any longer. Even the Mist Ninjas don't like the current management method. The reason why they didn't say anything before was because they were chosen by themselves.

Shadow, but now, they discovered that something seemed to be wrong.

It is really unimaginable how these violent maniacs will react once they discover the truth...

At least, Qi is looking forward to it.

"What are you thinking about? You look weird."

On the bow of the boat, Terumi Mei frowned and looked at Qi Na with gritted teeth. They were already in the Kingdom of Water and were traveling on the inland river in a small boat.

The inland river is naturally different from the sea. The water flow is gentle. Along the way, the banks are full of greenery. The two of them stand on the bow of the boat with the breeze blowing on their faces. It is supposed to be very comfortable.

So Terumi Mei really doesn't understand what's going on with Qi's distorted face. Can't this person give her a normal expression for once?

"Humph, of course it's a good thing."

Qi glanced at Terumi Mei and said, speaking of it, this so-called Fourth Mizukage was still his enemy. This guy could be counted as half, if not all, of Minazuki and Kaguya's clan's debt.

Only with great wealth can one be bold, and Qi, who now has a shadow-level combat power, is naturally very confident. As long as Kirigakure does not create any obstacles for him, he will not be afraid of any trouble in the Kingdom of Water.

It is necessary to consider Kirigakure's attitude. After all, it is a good thing that the strength has improved, but people still have to stay awake, otherwise they will not be confident but arrogant. The more they move towards high-end power, the closer the power of the five major villages will be. This is also the reason why although the five major ninja villages are generally strong or weak, they are still the five poles of the ninja world.

"How long until it arrives?"

Qi asked, he couldn't wait any longer. Although he was born in the Kingdom of Water and had gone back and forth twice, he had never been to Hidden Mist Village. Not everyone could enter that place.

It's not impossible for outsiders to go in, but whether they can get out depends on luck and strength.

"Why are you so anxious? Do you think Kirigakure is just a roadside shop?"

Terumi Mei snorted dissatisfiedly,

"The waterway is only part of it. We will still have to go ashore when the time comes."

She thought for a while and warned again,

"When the time comes, you have to follow me closely. Don't think that just because you know the art of Kirigakure, you won't be afraid of the barrier of Kirigakure Village. The most important thing is that if you don't enter according to the regulations, you will be regarded as an intruder. Kirigakure There are many more people in the village who don’t know you than people who know you.”

"I know, you are so verbose."

Qi is most annoyed by this kind of talk.

"Don't tell me to follow you closely. It'll be fine if you let me hold you."

"You...you dare!"

Terumi Mei was stunned for a moment, and then became furious.

"Huiyue, where are you entertaining me!?"

This guy is so hateful that he doesn't even consider her a woman. Is he blind? She is a serious and beautiful girl!

"It's not fun. To entertain you and me, why not go home and raise pets? Well, let's go on our way."

Qi said it smoothly for a moment, but regretted it after he reacted.

He actually teased this photo girl just now, which is really evil. He is not good at this type...

For the next part of the journey, the two of them were speechless.

The advantages and disadvantages of waterway are equally obvious, that is, low cost and slow speed.

The two of them took an ordinary boat and did not use ninjutsu, so they fully respected the advantages and disadvantages of the waterway along the way. This boat was really unhappy...

After getting off the boat, Terumi Mei was probably still angry. She didn't say anything. She just made a "Follow me" gesture to Qi and ran off on her own.

That's right, I was running. I rushed out in a flash...

There was no other way, so Qi Ziran could only follow him in a hurry, climbing over mountains and ridges again - in fact, there are no real mountains in the Kingdom of Water. They are not even as good as the hills of the Kingdom of Fire. At most, they are just rugged and steep slopes.

That's all.

But this is not the point. The point is that Qi finally approached Kirigakure Village.

This is easy to distinguish. The surrounding scenery has obviously become blurry, and faint white mist has begun to appear around it, and Qi can sense the presence of chakra from it.

This place does not belong to the barrier yet. Rather than saying it is a barrier, it is a warning from Kirigakure. If a non-Kirigakure ninja comes here without the guidance of a Kirigakure ninja, then he should stop.

Of course Qi didn't need to stop, because he was originally invited by Kirigakure. Sure enough, he saw Terumi Mei in front of him stopped and turned to look at him.

"Follow me!"

Although she had a stinky face, she still acted conscientiously. She did not run as before, but slowly walked forward step by step.

"Oh……"

Qi suddenly felt that this girl was interesting. He smiled and followed her step by step.

He had never noticed before that the future fifth generation Mizukage actually had such a childish side...
