The Land of Iron is a country of warriors that remains neutral in this age of ninjas.Has a unique culture.

In the waters near the Kingdom of Iron, a huge whale ship sailed slowly on the sea, and a few sailors lazily kept the ship sailing.

The afternoon sun is always so sleepy and makes people feel tired.On the bow of the boat was a young man with tied black hair, dressed as a sailor, wearing a gray-white dirty linen shirt with rolled-up sleeves, a pair of light gray canvas pants, his trousers rolled up to his knees, and his bare feet.Holding a samurai sword in his arms, he was sleeping against the bow of the boat.

A group of people on the ship felt discouraged because of little harvest after a month of sailing. Only the captain and first mate had not given up completely. The first mate took over the captain's job, and the captain took on the position of lookout.

On the last day, they will sail out of this sea area. Outside this sea area, the possibility of encountering whales is even smaller.

When the sun first rose and only half of the sea surface was left, the captain finally gave up and began to eat with the sailors on the deck.The captain is in his forties and has a well-proportioned figure. He wears a simple armor made of bamboo and has a samurai sword hanging on his waist.

Everyone was holding a bowl of stewed seafood soup, drinking the soup and eating the seafood in it. They were all silent, leaning on where they felt comfortable and watching the sunset quietly.

The captain came to the young man's side on the bow. The young man had been sitting on the bow all day, barely moving.At this time, the young man was also eating. He had finished the soup and was eating the meat in the bowl.

"I'm very sorry, Lord Yan Zong." The captain sat next to the young man and leaned against the bulwark to apologize to the young man.

"Captain Shimazu, you'll be fine. Didn't we catch some fish? It's not like we caught nothing." The young man leaned against the bulwark and consoled him in a calm tone.

"Those are just a drop in the bucket compared to our goals."

"Isn't this a common thing?"

"We have gone out several times in a row without catching any whales."

"It will be fine."

"Thank you for your understanding." The captain would not bow his head easily. He was like a king on the ship, but this time he really had no face to face the young man next to him.

The young man is the young master of the Yagyu family in the Kingdom of Iron and the future heir to the head of the Yagyu family. He often served as a guard on the whaling ship more than a year ago.

This time he boarded the ship just to see why the whaling ship had not harvested anything in the past year.The result is obvious. There are no traces of whales at all in the sea areas where whales used to be seen.

This is a very strange thing, because there is a high probability that whales or many marine creatures in this world will actively attack fishing boats.More than a year ago, the ship was attacked by a giant whale. At the time of crisis, Yagyu Konmune slashed the whale, which was larger than the ship, in half from head to tail.

"Lord Yanzong, over the past year or so...?" The captain asked the question he had always wanted to ask, but he had never been in the mood to ask about matters unrelated to work before.

"Ah! Like the rumors, I am practicing swordsmanship." Yan Zong guessed the captain's question halfway through his words.

"I'm sorry to bother you with my bad work."

"Haha" Yan Zong laughed twice, "You underestimate me too much. It only took me three months to master that move. I was able to escort you a long time ago. But I wanted to be more diligent, so I spent more time." It’s just a matter of time. In fact, I took the initiative to take the escort mission this time.”

"Thank you so much." The captain felt much more relaxed. After all, Yagyu Kotomune's experience on the ship was much richer than that of those retainers, and Kotomune spent much more time escorting on this ship than on other ships.In the captain's view, Yan Zong would definitely speak according to the facts and would not talk nonsense.

Kotomune thought the same as the captain. Whaling was a very profitable industry for the Yagyu family.Even if the number of whales decreases, several families with a whaling industry have agreed to reduce the scale of whaling, which is still considerable.

Therefore, the Yagyu family, which originally had three whaling ships, was now reduced to one.The remaining two have been converted into fishing boats.

"Shimazu, do you feel it?" Yan Zong grabbed the knife in his hand.With a serious look on his face, the sixth sense that a warrior has practiced for many years made him feel a hint of danger.

"Ah! I just kept feeling something was wrong." The captain also grabbed the knife at his waist.

Suddenly, four octopus tentacles, which were almost as high as the main mast and thicker than the main mast, waved from the water on both sides of the ship. The four tentacles were like four huge iron rods, waving towards the whale ship from the water.

It's like putting the boat on the belly of a crab. As long as the crab's legs are clasped, the boat will be crushed to pieces.

Seeing this scene, Yan Zong, who was a guard, instinctively pressed the handle of the knife, jumped to the bulwark and pulled out the knife. A slash in the shape of a white blade quickly struck the octopus tentacles.

"One sword, Iai, shark slash."

One of the tentacles was cut off before it was fully lifted, and the huge sound and splash of water attracted the attention of everyone on the boat.

"Everyone attacks the tentacles." The captain shouted loudly, and at the same time he pulled out his sword, gathered blue chakra on the sword and swung it out.

A blue chakra slash hit the octopus's leg hard, but it only caused a small splash.

The captain felt very different. In his many years of life at sea, he had eaten a lot of octopus, but he had never seen an octopus with legs that were constantly chopped off. Doesn't it mean that it can't be chewed if it is constantly chopped off?

Just as the captain was in a daze, another sword-like slash flew towards the tentacle he had chopped, and it was instantly cut into two pieces. .

"The captain organized the attack." Yanmune yelled, "The octopus has more than four legs."

After saying this, Yagyu Konmune, who was standing on the bow bulwark, turned around and jumped into the sea under the gaze of the captain.Seeing Yagyu Yanzong jumping off the ship, the captain immediately calmed down.

Hearing the captain's cry, the sailors who reacted took out the knives from their waists and attacked the remaining two legs like the captain.

Unfortunately, after a random attack, one octopus leg only had some skin broken, but the other one was intact.Seeing this, all the sailors were shocked.

The huge octopus legs are about to reach the highest point and will be chopped down at any time.Looking at the octopus legs that were as tall as the two mainmasts and could not be cut off, the sailors didn't know what else to do for a while.

At this moment, two more octopus legs suddenly rose vertically from the water.The appearance of four octopus legs caused the sailors to become frightened and panicked.

Some people were frightened and attacked the octopus legs randomly, while others began to move closer to the side of the ship, preparing to jump into the sea before complete failure.

"The ship can take a hit," roared the captain.But he didn't believe it. After all, he could easily cut through the wooden ship planks, but he couldn't cut through the octopus legs.

"Everyone listen to my order and attack the injured leg at the same time." The captain shouted majestically, as if by magic, everyone calmed down.and simultaneously targeted the injured octopus leg, while the captain himself targeted the other.

At this time, the two octopus legs that were raised earlier were split down, and the two legs that were raised later also rose to the highest point.

"Everyone, prepare." The captain shouted, his eyes fixed on the octopus leg that was being chopped off in front of him.

Chakra quickly condensed from his hand to the knife, and time passed slower and slower, and finally seemed to have stopped. At this moment, the captain was extremely convinced that he could cut off the giant octopus's tentacles.

"Attack." The captain roared, and instinctively swung his sword, followed by the second and third sword.A total of three cuts, and the huge octopus tentacles were chopped into four pieces.

At the same time, the sailors also swung out the chakra condensed on the sword, and struck the injured octopus tentacle with more than 20 slashes.

Finally, relying on the advantage of many people, they finally cut off the octopus tentacles.

After cutting off the octopus tentacles, everyone felt a little complacent, but the reality was not optimistic.The broken octopus tentacles fell heavily on the deck, and the deck was damaged and cracked.

Moreover, the broken tentacles were still twisting wildly on the ship, continuing to destroy it.

"Be careful" someone shouted.

Only then did everyone look away from the octopus tentacles on the deck; they instinctively looked to the sky, where the last two tentacles had been chopped off.

"Ice escapes, wind blows snow."

A gust of wind carrying snowflakes blew towards a split tentacle, and instantly the tentacle was frozen into a popsicle.But it still slashed downwards, and the ice made the tentacles look even harder.

There was a loud bang, and both tentacles hit the ship.

Yanamune Yagyu jumped into the sea and dived quickly. Under the water, an octopus hung upside down at the bottom of the boat, staring at him with a pair of big eyes. Its huge head almost covered the entire boat.

The octopus's head is stuck to the bottom of the boat, and its four octopus tentacles have extended deep into the sea. The remaining parts of the two broken tentacles are attached to the hull of the boat to fix themselves, and there are two intact tentacles suspended in the water.

Seeing this scene, Yan Zong had a doubt in his heart as to why the octopus didn't extend eight tentacles to attack at the same time.

"Maybe it's because he's not smart enough. He is an animal after all. But no matter what, I still have to kill this guy," Yagyu Kanmune thought to himself.

Just as he was thinking about something, he was suddenly entangled with something under his feet, and then he pulled it out fiercely, very quickly; however, Yagyu Yansong's movements were very slow.

"Ninjutsu, scuba."

Yanmune Yagyu took a deep breath in the water. "Scuba" is a ninjutsu studied and mastered by sailors. Using this ninjutsu, you can breathe in the water.As long as you have enough chakra, you can even stay in the water.

However, this ninjutsu consumes a lot of chakra, but with skill, the sailor can stay in the water for an hour.

The trick is to take a breath into the scuba and hold it, then release the scuba.You can stay in the water for a long time by repeating this, but this is not suitable for fighting. If you want to fight in the water, you cannot unlock the scuba lung.

Yagyu Yanmune slowly pulled out the knife, pulled it over the tentacles wrapped around his legs, and easily cut off the tentacles.Yan Zong used a bladeless knife.

After taking a look at the giant octopus wrapped around his feet below, he slowly raised his knife and swung it down. A wave of sea water slashed towards the octopus at high speed.

After the giant octopus realized that he had lost his grip, he stopped and held the broken tentacle in front of his eyes to confirm.

Just then, the water wave hit it, cutting it in half.The giant octopus stared with its big innocent eyes, then struggled and sank to the bottom of the sea.

"Captain, Captain..." the sailors shouted at the octopus tentacles chopping on the boat.

Just a few seconds ago, an old man walked out of the captain's cabin. He had gray hair, was short, and was dressed like a sailor.From the collar of the brown long-sleeved linen shirt, you can see that it is wearing special, close-fitting soft armor.

This kind of soft armor was a protective gear worn by ninjas who went to the battlefield in the old days. It looked like a gray fitted short-sleeved dress with fishnets on it.

The material used to make the clothes is a special material that can prevent knives such as kunai and shuriken from being bounced on the battlefield, and it also has a good thermal insulation effect.

The outer net is made of a kind of wire called chakra. This kind of metal wire is soft and tough and is not easy to be cut. When a knife cuts on a net made of this kind of wire, as long as the net is continuous, the blade cannot touch it. If it reaches the skin, it will naturally not be cut.

Of course, the mesh is not conducive to protecting against thrusts, but it saves material and is lightweight and will not hinder the ninja's flexible fighting style.
