Konoha's Shiranui Genma

Chapter 95 White-footed Albatross

The black-capped albatross in the land of water and the white-footed albatross in the land of soup.

Shiranui Genma actually had no second choice.

In the current situation, the country of water may make trouble for the country of fire at any time. The two countries are suspicious and wary of each other. If he goes to the country of water to find the black-capped albatross, he may even die.

The Country of Tang is an ally of the Country of Fire, and the relationship between the two parties is good. Even if he goes there in a fair manner, there will be no problem, and he may even be treated as a "super citizen".

So naturally, Shiranui Genma could only go to Tang Country to find the white-footed albatross.

After making a choice, he found several more books and carefully looked up information about the habits and characteristics of albatrosses, especially white-footed albatrosses.

After some research, he finally confirmed that the white-footed albatross inhabiting the eastern coast of Yuno Country lays eggs from the end of July to the beginning of October every year.

It is now March 44, in other words, he will have to wait at least four months before leaving.

After all, according to previous experience, human incubation is also a very important part for psychic birds and psychic beasts. The potential of psychic birds cultivated from eggs is obviously greater.

While Shiranui Genma was waiting, five months passed quickly.

XNUM X Year X NUM X Month.

In the past few months, the chaos in the Land of Rain has become more and more prominent. There are more and more rebellious ninjas, wandering ninjas, and local forces. Conflicts occur from time to time.

The Kawano Country battlefield was the same as before. Konoha was attacking fiercely. Although Sand Gakushi was struggling, he was still clenching his teeth and struggling to resist.

Obviously, Sha Yin is still looking forward to the arrival of certain events that can turn the tide of the battle...

"What? You're going to Tang Country to dig out bird eggs!" Jiraiya, who was conceiving an outline for a new work, also widened his eyes.

"Uh... yes. After a long time of consideration, I decided to use the albatross as my psychic beast, and now it's the white-footed albatross' breeding season, so I'm going to ask you for a month's leave."

As soon as Shiranui Xuanjian finished speaking, Zilai picked up a manuscript at hand, patted the table and said, "Then what about the remaining illustrations in this "Intimate Life"? I'm about to contribute!"

"Is my "never late" reputation going to be ruined because you caught an albatross? "

For more than a year, along with Shiranui Genjian's detailed illustrations, Jirai has also published many short stories one after another, which, without any surprise, caused quite a stir in the adult (harmonic) literary world.

There are some followers, but in more cases, it is the traditional adult (harmonic) writer who accuses the combination of the two to be too naked, seriously hurting the sanctity of literature and art, and causing controversy.

However, contrary to the literary world, the readers responded very enthusiastically to this. Those who have read Jiraiya's novels have read the book a hundred times and never tire of it.

According to word of mouth, the name Jiraiya is about to become a symbol of adult (harmonic) literature in the new era of ninja world.

Fortunately, Shiranui Genma did not sign his real name.

Otherwise, I'm afraid he will be honored, and most likely he will go one step further, becoming the "youngest underage painter in history" with an even more terrifying reputation.

Although there is no reputation, the manuscript fee is real.

So far, relying on the 20% of the manuscript fee paid by Jiraiya, Shiranui Genma has earned millions of taels, which is quite fruitful.

Jilai also stared, and was about to say more, but Shiranuo Xuanjian seemed to have been prepared, and took out a few pictures from his arms.

"Master Jiraiya, I have already drawn the pictures, and I will definitely not delay the publication of the novel."

Zilai was also taken aback, took the picture and looked at it intently for a while, his old face gradually turned red: "Your boy... this time is quite neat."

"Then, Ziraiya-sama, I will leave for Tang Country in the afternoon."

Jiraiya looked at the illustration carefully again, then touched his chin, and asked as if he was about to make some important decision: "Are you so interested in psychic arts?"

Hearing his tone, Zhihuo Xuanjian's heart skipped a beat, feeling a sense of anticipation inexplicably.

Jiraiya was also silent for a moment, as if hesitating about something.

After a long while, he sighed slightly, and said, "Okay, I allow you to go to Tang Country to catch the albatross - remember not to exceed the deadline."

"..."

……

In the afternoon of the same day, Shiranui Genma tidied up a bit, then put on his backpack and headed straight to Tang Country.

The Country of Tang is basically in the east of the Country of Rain. He set off from the Konoha Camp and traveled all the way east. It took him less than three days to reach his destination.

On the east coast of Yuno Country, there is a certain sea cliff.

Shiranui Genma walked to the top of the cliff, looked up, and suddenly saw many white-footed albatrosses flying in the sky, and the birds were singing.On the surface of the sea, there are also many albatrosses swimming.

"Wow—"

As the name suggests, the feet of the white-footed albatross are snow-white, as if painted with a layer of paint, which is the most distinctive feature that distinguishes them from other albatrosses.

Of course, not only the feet, most of their bodies are white, but there are some places on the wings that are black.

In addition, compared with most albatrosses, the white-footed albatross has a more streamlined body shape, so it is flexible and faster.

Unlike what he had seen and heard in his previous life, animals in the ninja world often do not have many difficult frames or boundaries to break, and the white-footed albatross is no exception.

For example, after just a cursory look, Shiranui Genma saw several giant albatrosses with a wingspan of six to seven meters, each of them majestic.

According to various books, as a large albatross, the white-footed albatross has a wingspan of at least three meters and a body length of more than one meter, which is enough to carry an adult.

There are white-footed albatrosses on this large coast, so Shiranui Genma only stopped here for a while, and then continued along the cliff while observing many albatrosses in the sky.

"Wow—"

When the birds are singing, you can sometimes see albatrosses diving into the water like lightning, and then jumping out again with fish and shrimps in their mouths.

Now is the peak season for white-footed albatrosses to lay eggs. For albatrosses that stick to monogamy, the male and female birds often take turns to bear the hatching responsibility.

Therefore, after catching fish and shrimp, the white-footed albatross will fly back to its nest on the cliff with food, and then come back to continue hunting.

For nearly ten days, Shiranui Genma has been observing and recording white-footed albatrosses on this coast, planning to pick out one with better qualifications and then dig out its eggs.

This morning, he was walking on the cliff while looking at the sky not far away.

"Zhi--" the sharp birdsong suddenly sounded.

After circling for a while, a rather large albatross with a wingspan of seven or eight meters did not enter the water to feed like other albatrosses. Instead, it flapped its wings, and a column of water suddenly burst from the sea below, and countless fish and shrimps flew into the air.

Immediately, it opened its mouth wide, swooped and glided as fast as lightning, caught countless fish and shrimps in an instant, and then flapped its wings, leisurely returning to its nest on the cliff.
