Ninja Ice House

If there were a lot of contestants in the past, and there were mediocre people with average strength among them, the final eight finalists were all masters with some real skills.

There were 24 people in the team competition and eight in the individual competition. There were a total of 32 contestants. After resting, they and a few referees and staff took a super cruise to the designated competition location.

The preset final arena is a land of gravel islands and reefs, which can basically meet the performance conditions of all contestants.

The only shortcoming is that this year's stadium does not have an open stand. It is completely tracked by patrol speedboats, camera cars and airships, and then transmitted to Yuqi Island through wireless signals, and then broadcast live simultaneously on the big screen in the square. Tourists can watch the wonderful moments of the game.

Of course, for real nobles, the venue for appreciation is undoubtedly much more luxurious.

Although there was no direct on-site observation, some radicals were a little unhappy, but the main "programs" were well arranged, and they were not worried that someone would cause trouble.

The biggest feature of the remodeled small waterplane area multihull is the huge open deck area, which is extremely stable in rough seas.

On the compass deck on the top floor, Gu Shanboshui sneaked away, feeding the brave seabirds with fresh fish caught by sea fishing, coughing from time to time following the moonlight blast that came to protect him, but he could not scare these animals accustomed to humans.

"Why don't you go in and take a rest? The sea breeze with too much humidity is not good for your body. If you want to continue working as a ninja for a long time, you have to take good care of your body."

"It's your duty, you can't leave without permission!"

The disheveled swordsmanship ninja whispered back to Gushan Pushui's words,

"Young Family Superintendent is here, there must be someone to protect him personally!"

"Fine!"

Gu Shan Bu Shui curled his lips, wanting to appreciate Moonlight Gale's kindness, but he followed too closely, which was also a bit worrying.

To be honest, in terms of absolute strength, Gushan Bushui is no weaker than the current Moonlight Gale. As long as he can withstand the three axes of Konoha-ryu's swordsmanship, Shaojiadu has a great chance of winning.

"I heard that in the past, outside experts were hired, or Konoha Ninja cameo as the supervisor of the finals. Why did you want to do it yourself this year?"

"I can't become a ninja, so I have to come back and inherit hundreds of millions of wealth. I didn't have a chance before, but now I have to show it!"

Gu Shan Bu Shui, who explained casually, said with a smile,

"Did it cause you trouble?"

Moonlight Gale took a deep breath, and said seriously:

"In principle, as an employer, you shouldn't risk your life. You could have stayed behind and watched the live broadcast. Why do you have to come to the front line to preside over the overall situation?"

"As a ninja, you shouldn't question your employer's choice, even if it's just a suggestion for safety reasons, it's a bit beyond the authority..."

Gu Shan Bu Shui, who refuted the question as a matter of course, said,

"Is it too busy, why don't I arrange something for you?"

"Forget it!"

Hastily waved his hand, saying that Moonlight Gale, who had no such intentions, denied,

"It's just that it's a little strange that you, a nobleman like you, like to toss so much. Anyway, we are also classmates who don't look up and look down, so we don't have to speak awkwardly..."

Don't look at Yueguang Gaifeng's look of a sick child, I am actually a rather narrow and sullen young man, if I don't have any skills, I won't get on fire with the cold-tempered Uyue Xiyan.

"Student..."

Gu Shan Bu Shui looked a little unnatural,

"Walking on the street of Muye Village, throwing bricks casually, as long as it hits the one with the forehead protection, three times out of ten, the unlucky person will be my classmate."

"Exaggerated!"

The sneering Moonlight Gale took out a small bottle from his bosom, poured a few pills and took it, he felt a little better.

"It's obviously that guy from Hongdou who is on duty. He's making excuses to say he's seasick and has a stomachache. So it's really unreasonable for me to come here. I'm the most likely to be unable to withstand this kind of strong wind and waves with my body!"

The joking young man exchanged a few more pleasantries, then changed the subject and asked:

"Your Gushan family has held this 'King of Fighting' competition for more than ten years. How can you persist? Those noble people came from thousands of miles to support, and the crucial final can only be watched on the big screen. Are they willing?"

"Looking at the live broadcast technology. Watching the game live, the main thing to enjoy is the atmosphere, but it's not the most important..."

While talking, Gu Shan Bu Shui lowered his voice and explained slowly,

"Don't talk about those illusory benefits, let's talk about something practical. Do you know how much money is betting on 'King of Fighters' this year?"

"A lot? There are also guys who cheat in the Chunin exam, and some idiots who don't know the heights of the heavens and the earth are trying to bribe the ninja candidates who threaten to release the water..."

It seems that Konoha Village does not have an accurate concept of the potential of the gaming industry in the ninja world that lacks formal competitive events.

"Let's put it this way, just this month's handicap controlled directly or indirectly by our Gushan family, the capital turnover exceeds the sum of the income of the country of grass, the country of bears, the country of tea and the country of Sichuan, and exceeds the annual income of the country of fire. Thirty percent of the financial revenue. The black villages that are not within our field of vision, let alone how many there are. So much money, once spent regardless of the cost, can almost overturn and disturb the smaller of the five major countries, the Kingdom of Wind and the Kingdom of Water gone."

"Is it such an exaggeration?"

"As long as the human gambler's psychology finds a suitable outlet, the power that will erupt will be appallingly huge. In the past 16 years, Runwu has quietly taken root in the gray area of ​​the ninja world, and has deeply affected the land of fire. All aspects. The "King of Fighters" event is a feast that everyone is looking forward to."

Why has the Gushan family been preparing for the "King of Fighting" event every year, racking their brains to promote it every year, and even the daimyo took the lead to join in the show?

On the one hand, the excitement of the event satisfies the spiritual needs of all aspects, and at the same time, it actually leverages a huge amount of wealth. This is the foundation for its long-term prosperity.

The Olympic Games and the World Cup in the previous life not only had the need to demonstrate soft power, but would indeed bring high economic value.No one can ignore the wealth created directly or indirectly by commercialized major leagues and professional leagues.

Now, the cultivation of the Gushan family for more than ten years has finally reached maturity and is worth harvesting.

The prosperity of gambling is the most immediate, and other derivative benefits have supported an unknown number of people.

More people rely on the Gushan family for a living, which naturally increases their influence, and the steady stream of wealth will also flow in.

Moonlight Gale, who was just asking casually, didn't expect to hear such big news, and couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.

"Your family's secret, just tell me, is it okay?"

"Although it's not good for outsiders to know about it, it's not a top secret. Sooner or later, it will be noticed by interested people."

Gushan Bushui didn't pay too much attention to these details, the Gushan family's airs have not yet arrived, and they can scare off many villains who are about to move.

"Wealth and power are the labels of the Gushan Clan. It would be no big deal to deepen this impression a little bit."

The so-called wealth is incomparable to the enemy, it is really in front of the eyes, and the self-proclaimed well-informed Moonlight Gale can't help but be speechless.

"Don't you care who wins and who loses?"

"This year's winners, I'm going to give it to Hema. Let's add the daimyo guardian ninja first. The rest is not worth spending too much time on. Just let the subordinates come forward to arrange it for you. I don't need to do it myself."

It is impossible for Shao Jiadu to care too much about recruiting a few decent thugs.

The matter of the Bear Country and the Sea Country is a special case. If the name of Young Master Gu Shan is not known, those wandering ninjas who are arrogant and arrogant may not necessarily buy it.

At the same time, the competition below was also going on in a field. Watching their performance up close, Kazuma, who was preparing for the selection of members, used the name of the chief referee to touch the strength of each contestant. .

In the end, the team champion and No.1 in the individual group were finally announced.

Yan Hu, who has participated in many competitions, finally got his wish this year and received the winning prize, a pair of half-finger gloves made of special materials. The big man who was overjoyed readily agreed to Kazuma's solicitation.

Next, the four winners of this year will face off against Kazuma's "Wang Jian Wang".

"It's almost time to start! 』

The results of the victory and defeat are roughly in line with the family's internal evaluation, and there are no surprises.

In the distance of the line of sight, a deep shadow is coming at a speed visible to the naked eye. At first, no one noticed it, until Kazuma defeated the challenger gracefully, and everyone who came back to their senses finally saw it. An underwater raider who charges on the waves.

"what is that?"

Moonlight Gale, who was also standing very tall, squinted his eyes slightly, and looked intently at the black shadow.

Just when everyone didn't know why, violent swordfish jumped out of the water and attacked everyone on the boat.

Seeing that the situation was not good, those who were close hurriedly avoided. A few contestants who couldn't find cover had to pull the objects around them to block.

Shocked by the sudden attack of the moonlight gust, I saw the long and pointed upper jaw of a swordfish, like a spear, piercing through the thick iron-covered wooden table, piercing the heart of a man hiding behind, It seems that I can't survive.

"This……"

The Konoha guard who didn't know what happened at all pulled Gu Shan Bu Shui and asked eagerly,

"Let's leave here quickly, something seems wrong!"

"It's too late! It will take a long time for the backup hot air balloon to lift off, and there is no guarantee of safety in the sky."

Fortunately, Hinata Hyuzu was not here, and no perception ninja came to join him. Basically, no one would find the tricks under the sea.

The huge whale sprayed out a thick jet of water, washing the deck to pieces, and the contestants who barely organized were defeated.

Huge objects hit the bottom cabin of the luxury cruise ship, part of the hull cracked, and several isolation water tanks began to flood.

The slightly tilted cruise ship kept shaking, making the people on board unsteady, and the brave swordfish were like charging warriors, desperately causing damage to the participating fighters.

Although it was messy, there were not many unlucky people who actually died.

After all, he is the outstanding player who stands out this year. After stabilizing his position, the wild animals that take the lead by surprise can still be blocked.

Seeing that the downward trend has gradually stopped, Gushan Bushui said to the conscientious Moonlight Gale:

"I'm at a high place here, and there will be no danger for a while. Go down and help, and don't make the situation worse."

"But……"

Moonlight Gale was a little hesitant, with his own ability, even if he couldn't beat him, his life would not be a problem, but he could get rid of Gu Shan Bu Shui who was close to him, and there was a risk of mission failure.

"Go, go. If even my strength can't persist until you come to the rescue, it doesn't make a big difference whether you are close or far away."

"Okay, don't move here, I'll come as soon as I go!"

After finishing speaking, the moonlight gust that jumped down lightly landed on the ship's side, brandishing a long sword, and beheaded the big fish that leaped and attacked one by one.

"What a group of hardworking people. Unfortunately, in this world, hard work doesn't pay off!"

As the ancient cedar water formed seals and performed psychic spells, strands of crimson water emerged from the bottom of the water, growing rapidly along with the pervasive blood, and expanding rapidly under multiple stimuli.

At the bottom of the ship where no one was paying attention, a huge crimson shadow extended upwards at a speed visible to the naked eye. Just after suppressing the collision of swordfish and a large number of whales, and the spray of poisonous ink, everyone unexpectedly discovered that the nearby sea surface had changed. The red forest formed by the red tide covered half of the sky.

By connecting to the control center, Gu Shan Bu Shui secretly changed the form of "Red Tide Forest". Surge inside.

"The sinners who have abandoned the way of nature and only cared about satisfying their own desires, wantonly destroying the living beings, actually extended your greedy hands to the ocean, and we are determined to clean up your filth."

The straightforward and understandable hoarse roar expresses the anger of the two big guys to the fullest.

One after the other, the scarlet giant that pinched the luxury cruise ship spit out a foul-smelling liquid from its mouth. Except for Gushan Bushui who lost no time in raising the black umbrella, there was not a single person in the open air who was caught.

These crimson liquids not only smell very bad, but also cannot be wiped clean, and are also very corrosive. The infected skin is burning and itchy, and the pain is not very obvious.

As the atmosphere in the air became more and more embarrassing, fewer and fewer people could maintain their sanity.

After a while, the contestants who still maintained their combat effectiveness, under the threat of death, had to fight together and go all out to try to repel the attack of the terrible enemy.

At the top of the ship that had tilted to a certain angle and was in danger of sinking, behind Gu Shan Bu Shui, Yu Huo, who had regained his human form, walked over and reported respectfully:

"My lord, everything is ready."

"Let's get started! Release all the high-energy nutrients, increase the pheromone concentration to the maximum, and you can retreat."

These weak mermaids can't play the role of behind-the-scenes mastermind. If they want to make the evil god's power worthy of its name, they need a tyrant in the water——Umibozu.
