Somewhere on the sea in the Land of Rivers.
"Sawada, how much longer?" Nyanko asked boredly, mouth gaping open.
The next second, a fist hammered down.
"Do you want to die? Everyone's waiting on you, and you're still talking so loudly!"
Nyanko was hit until tears welled up. Holding back his anger, he said in a low voice, "Seems like you're even louder!"
"You noisy guy, I've only been away from the village for a few days, and you've already caused me so much trouble. What, want to be king?" Sawada looked speechlessly at Nyanko beneath his feet. If the Old Man hadn't sent a message, he wouldn't have known this guy had such guts.
He'd actually been preparing to infiltrate the front lines of Grass Country. If Sawada hadn't caught him, this guy would have run off.
Ever since learning that his Divine Binding Seal could help him, this guy had been secretly practicing chakra. Who would have thought he actually succeeded in cultivating chakra, but this guy couldn't learn the Divine Binding Seal? However, based on the Divine Binding Seal's principles, he developed his own killing move.
After that, his gaze had been fixed on the Tailed Beasts. If he couldn't beat the Eight-Tails, this guy would even try to capture Killer Bee in the village and drain him dry.
"Aren't they going to war? If I exhaust their strongest combat power first, isn't that also doing a good deed?" Nyanko pouted, but if not for the guilty expression on his face, Sawada might have believed him.
"Stop thinking about such things, unless you want to be controlled by someone with a black rod inserted into your body." Sawada said flatly, his right hand supporting his chin.
"Control? Who dares control me—" Nyanko immediately became furious. Halfway through his words, he stopped, realizing that the person above him was exactly such a person.
"Don't act innocent after taking advantage. You've been with me so long—when have I truly wanted to control you?" How could Sawada not know what this dead cat was thinking?
"Tch, but how much longer do we have to wait?" Nyanko changed the topic. After all, they'd been flying in the sky for nearly a dozen hours already.
"I don't know. I also want to solve this quickly." Sawada looked down at the sea below. Even the coastline where Choza had been hiding earlier had become so small it was just a black line.
Flying so high was to avoid detection. Hitting Nyanko earlier was just venting his dissatisfaction.
"Hmm? Is that it?" Nyanko casually glanced and pointed at a black dot that could almost be ignored.
"Fly lower; otherwise the communication device won't receive any signal." Sawada reached out and patted Nyanko's head. Nyanko obediently began slowly descending.
When reaching a certain altitude, the communicator beside Sawada buzzed.
"Choza-senpai, at your current position's eight o'clock direction, several ships are approaching."
"Received—" After a long while, Choza's voice came through.
"It's them, Sawada; wait for my signal!"
A few minutes later, the voice sounded again. Upon hearing it, a smile appeared at the corner of Sawada's mouth. Now, it was time to wait.
"Can you not smile like that? It's unsettling." Nyanko looked at Sawada above and couldn't help saying in a low voice.
"Get ready. Let this 'rain' fall even more fiercely." Sawada stood up and began taking out scrolls, unsealing things that had been prepared.
Every time he opened a scroll, pre-sealed oil barrels were hung on Nyanko's neck.
"This many? Are you trying to drain the entire sea?" Watching Sawada continuously repeat his actions, Nyanko's eyes widened.
"This is nothing. If I don't use it all, I'll want more." Sawada clapped his hands, unsealing the last scroll, then said, "Even the King of Hell will submit to you—"
On the sea surface below, Choza watched the ships approaching in the distance. He kept watch on their surroundings, while the Hyuga chunin beside him kept his Byakugan activated, concentrating on observation.
"Choza-sama, they're coming!" The moment the Hyuga chunin spoke, Choza saw the distant sea surface rising high.
Choza grabbed the communicator and shouted into the speaker. "Everyone, prepare to retreat at full speed! Sawada, get ready."
"Roger!"
On the sea surface, after the disguised ships reached the designated position, they stopped. They took out signal lights and began flashing toward the sea.
Immediately after, the originally calm sea surface began rising, and a massive submarine, like a steel beast, slowly surfaced. Although they'd seen it many times, everyone on the Sunagakure ships couldn't help but swallow nervously.
After all, this submarine was even larger than their ships.
At the foremost end, a mysterious opening appeared on the submarine. Footsteps echoed. A man wearing a gas mask came forward, looking at the nearby ships. "You're slow again."
On the ship, the Sunagakure shinobi responsible for this transport frowned. "Can't be helped; Konoha's people are following us very closely."
"I don't need to know the reason. Go tell your Kazekage—the transportation fee increases by ten percent this time!" The man with the gas mask ignored the shinobi and said arrogantly.
"Onizo! Don't go too far!" The Sunagakure shinobi on the ship couldn't agree to this and roared at him.
Hearing this, a trace of disdain appeared on Onizo's face beneath the mask. "Whether you give it or not, I don't care."
At these words, the leading shinobi on the ship involuntarily clenched his fists. If not for the fact that supplies hadn't all been transported yet, he might have killed this arrogant guy on the spot.
Onizo looked indifferently at the several ships on the sea surface. So much money! If not for fear of being hunted by Sunagakure, I'd probably just rob them directly. Enough to live luxuriously for a while!
Both harbored ill intentions. For a moment, the atmosphere was tense.
After a long while, the Sunagakure leader finally spoke. "I'll inform the village. Let's start the transfer now."
"Of course, if there's business to be done, why not do business?" Onizo arrogantly spread his hands. Then the submarine, originally stationary on the sea surface, began to change.
The streamlined submarine gradually extended two large platforms to stabilize it on the sea surface.
Seeing Onizo's relaxed appearance, a trace of wariness flashed in the eyes of the leading shinobi on the ship. He immediately waved his hand.
The personnel on the ships immediately began moving, starting to load supplies into tubes extending from the submarine to the ships.
More and more supplies were transferred.
Onizo looked at the ships on the water surface. As supplies were unloaded and weight decreased, the ship hulls began rising higher above the water.
Looks like a great war is about to start. No, I need to prepare. Who knows, maybe I'll earn the money but won't live to spend it.
While thinking, Onizo activated his ability, accelerating the transport of supplies into the submarine as much as possible. Inside the submarine, dozens of Sea Snake Cartel members quickly moved supplies into position for later transport to other locations.
Hmm?
Onizo, who was using his kekkei genkai, suddenly felt something drip on his nose.
"What's this? Is it raining?" He reached up to wipe it. His fingertips felt an oily sensation.
In an instant, danger signals flooded Onizo's mind. No! This is oil!
