The Shimada Family's Ninja Journey

No matter how things change in the Fire Country, it has nothing to do with the sailing Shimada clan for the time being.

Because no one in the Shimada clan knew how to sail a ship, Yoshitoshi hired a group of sailors in advance, including the captain.

These people have also heard of the reputation of the Shimada clan, and Hanzo has also made a promise to them. If they are reliable, the Shimada clan can consider hiring them long-term.

You must know that the Kingdom of Fire has many bandits composed of Ninja warriors, and the Kingdom of Water naturally also has various water ghost pirates.

In this day and age, those who work in the sailing industry are just trying to make money with their heads in their belts.

But if you have a backer like the Shimada clan, it will be different.

Although these pirates are desperadoes, they will not seek death in vain.

They never dare to attack the ships escorted by the Great Ninja Clan.

So these sailors all patted their chests and promised, eager to boast that they were the number one sailing group in the ninja world.

Hanzo couldn't help laughing when he saw it.

"drink!"

Along with a roar, a seemingly huge squid floated to the surface of the sea.

The surrounding water gradually became stained with blood.

"Tch, this big guy looks pretty powerful. I didn't expect him to be beaten so hard."

Genji, who was standing in front of the squid, shook his head, pulled out the thunder knife from the squid's head, turned around and returned to the boat.

When Hanzo saw this, he couldn't help laughing and scolding: "This is just an ordinary squid, not a ninja beast. If you still open it, how long do you think it can last?"

Genji smiled and scratched his head after hearing this, but did not reply.

Speaking of which, the biological chain in the ninja world seems very strange. I don't know how such a big squid grows.

"Could it be a time-traveling Neptune..."

But Hanzo didn't bother to dig deeper. He was not Darwin, so it had nothing to do with him.

Although this squid is not a threat, if it capsizes the boat, it will cause big trouble.

Therefore, even if Genji doesn't take action, he will kill the squid.

As the smell of blood spreads, some shark fins gradually appeared in the sea.

Apparently the sharks who had heard the news started to enjoy their free dinner.

Hanzo couldn't help but feel a little lost as he looked at the sharks eating happily.

Every place has its own food chain. Big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat shrimps.

Now the Shimada clan is about to break into the ninja world of the Water Country, just like a shark swimming into a water area with no large predators.

In terms of strength, a shark can crush any predator in this area of ​​water, but on the other hand, if the five piranhas here unite, they will also have the strength to bite this shark to death.

"What will happen depends on our methods..." Hanzo murmured.

But at this time, he didn't know that Zhongnian was already planning to use his lifelong happiness to win over an ally from the Kingdom of Water.

In the cabin at this time, an elderly couple is helping Hanzo... uh, maybe it should be called a talent show?

"Madam, I have inspected all these families. It seems that the head of the Terumi clan has a daughter who is one year older than Hanzo. She seems to be pretty good-looking."

With the clan leader's request, the Shimada clan's intelligence network naturally went into full gear and began to gather information about the major ninja clans in the Land of Water.

Compared to key figures such as clan leaders, heirs or senior elders, the major ninja clans paid little attention to information about girls of appropriate age within the clan. Therefore, the intelligence personnel of the Shimada clan easily obtained this information.

However, after a brief browse, Chongnian was the first to rule out the Kaguya clan, the Inakisaki clan and the Oniden clan.

The Kaguya clan, a war-mad family, has always only cared about the clan members who have opened the corpse veins.

And now, how many women in the Kaguya clan have opened the corpse veins?

The answer is none.

Although Chongnian is choosing a daughter-in-law for himself, this is also a political marriage, and marrying a girl from the Kaguya clan obviously cannot achieve this goal.

As for the Ghost Lantern Clan and the Ganshi Clan... there is no other reason, just because Zhongnian can't stand the fangs of these two families.

Although they have now moved to the land of water, it is still difficult for their old age to accept a woman with sharp teeth. Even if it is a political marriage, she cannot push her son into the fire pit, right?

Therefore, when the couple combined their efforts, the Ghost Lantern Clan and the Ganshi Clan were successfully eliminated.

So the two of them locked onto the Minazuki clan and the Terumi clan.

However, there are currently no girls of Hanzo's age under the leadership of the Minazuki clan's clan chiefs or elders.

The one closest in age to Hanzo is the elder Minazuki's youngest daughter, who is now 17 years old.

What's more, the leader of the Minazuki clan is a strong man who surpasses the jounin and is on par with the leader of the Oniden clan.

These two clans are currently the leaders of the five major ninja clans in the Land of Water.

Therefore, the Minazuki clan may not be willing to marry the Shimada clan, and these two clans may even be the great ninja clan that is most hostile to the Shimada clan.

After many comparisons, the Terumi family naturally stood out.

After thinking for a while, Hitomi agreed: "Indeed, this girl named... Terumi Kaoru is indeed very suitable, and she is about the same age as Hanzo."

"Since Madam has no objection, it's been decided. When the family settles down, I will send people to contact the Terumi clan first. Then that silly boy will trouble Madam." Chongnian said with a smile.

"Don't worry." Renmei also smiled confidently.

Just as the two of them were discussing in whispers, the boat suddenly stopped.

I heard a voice coming from outside: "Stop the ship in front of you, the gentlemen are going to inspect the goods."

What followed was a burst of laughter.

It was obvious that the Shimada clan had encountered pirates.

On the deck at this time, Hanzo shook his head helplessly.

"It's such a tough kid. Those big pirates don't show up when they see the emblem of our Shimada clan from a distance. On the contrary, these little pirates are not afraid of tigers."

Seeing this, Genji also agreed: "Yes, these guys are really ignorant."

The two brothers were complaining about each other.

But this kind of thing doesn't require Hanzo, a young clan leader, to show his strength.

Soon, two elders led dozens of ninjas to take action.

Seeing that dozens of ninjas suddenly jumped out of the "trembling" and fat sheep fleet, this group of pirates were all dead.

"Ninja-sama, please spare my life!"

There were only a few ordinary Nami nin among these people. Before they could speak, they were all killed by the Shimada clan.

The remaining ordinary people began to jump into the sea desperately.

The ninjas of the Shimada clan have little interest in killing these ordinary people.

"Wind Escape Vacuum Waves!"

One of the elders directly used Wind Escape to tear the pirate ship full of holes.

As for the pirates who jumped into the sea, without their ships, they were destined to perish in the sea.

Seeing that the tribesmen had dealt with the imps blocking the road, Hanzo ordered as if nothing had happened: "Shimada's subordinates, keep moving forward!"

There are still two days of sea journey from the water capital...
