Three days later, at the junction of a certain lake area between the Kingdom of Waves and the Kingdom of Whirlpool.

"Is this the activity area of ​​Sanbi Isobutsu?"

Standing on a pirate ship, Yagura looked at the surrounding sea.

In his field of vision, the water was eerily calm, not to mention the chakra reaction.

However, he did feel a sense of depression. This depression was not reflected in chakra, but in the mind, just like the feeling of an ordinary person accidentally entering the hunting area of ​​a ferocious beast.

Xue Lian stood on the other side, looking at the surrounding environment with a slight frown.

Unlike what Yagura cared about, he was thinking about another issue.

"It's strange, we are not the only ninjas competing for the position of Mizukage. Let's forget about those guys who have no ability, but they haven't even collected information on a single ninja sword?"

Among the seven Kirigakure Ninja Swordsmen, any one of them is considered a master in the Kirigakure Village. With the help of the Ninja Swordsman, even the leader of the Snow Clan dare not say that he can definitely win against the strong ones among them. .

However, when it comes to competing for the position of Mizukage, the ninja swordsmen have natural shortcomings.

Although their individual abilities are outstanding, in the final analysis they are still direct subordinates of the Mizukage.

To put it simply, the ninja swordsmen themselves are just workers.

The tasks he usually performs are all assigned by the Mizukage. Although his status in Kirigakure Village is not low, he has not developed his own power for a long time.

This is also the reason why Xue Lian gives priority to dealing with Yagura.

He planned to eradicate the most threatening ninjas of the Goju Yagura and Oniden clan first, and then find trouble with the Ninja Swordsman after he had his hands free.

So in addition to asking his tribe to contain the Gouji Clan and the Ghost Lantern Clan, he also sent many tribesmen to collect information on the Ninja Sword.

But in recent days, there had been no news from the clansmen he sent out to track down the Ninja Swordsmen, which made him feel a little uneasy.

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps behind him.

Turning around, he saw Sakumai and Pain walking out of the cabin one after another, followed by the pirate leader Funato Arakai.

"Have you found no trace of the Three-Tails yet?"

Arriving at the bow, Saki asked.

Xue Lian frowned and said: "The three-tailed creature's habits are similar to those of a turtle. It usually hides and sleeps under the lake. We are currently short of manpower and do not have specialized sensing ninjas. It may be difficult to find traces of it in a short time."

Hearing Xue Lian's words, Saki Wu nodded and replied nonchalantly: "Then look for it slowly."

Very good, almost the same as my plan.

She thought to herself.

Now, there are only five people on this ship.

Pain, Saki Mai, Yukiren, Yagura, Funado Arakami.

Among them, Funado Arakai was left behind as a pawn to control the Funado clan.

There were other pirates. When they passed by the port of Wave Country two days ago, Sakuma asked them all to disembark, and then stored the excess pirate ships in the Cardo Company's private port.

As for the finances and hostages on the cargo ship, they were blindfolded and escorted to the hands of the underworld controlled by the Cardo Company. They were jointly guarded by the pirates in Funado and the men of the Cardo Company.

Yagura's two Jonin guards also stayed in the Country of Waves to recuperate due to injuries sustained during the fight with Yukiren.

In the end, only a few people were left on the boat.

But that's nothing.

Capturing the three tails is not a difficult task in itself.

In Saki Mai's memory, the three tails were easily knocked unconscious by Deidara's bomb.

Now, Saki Wu estimates that if he channeled Shura Dao, he could solve it with a laser cannon.

If one shot doesn't work, then two.

But in this case, the whole operation would be too fast.

Saki Mai was also planning to use the three-tailed bait to see if he could catch the guy hiding behind the scenes, so on the premise of ensuring that the three-tailed fish would not be snatched away by others, he naturally dragged it as long as he could.

Yes, she has located the position of the three tails.

To be precise, their current ship is less than two kilometers away from Sanwei's location.

After all, Saki Mai possesses the perception ability and samsara eye of the Uzumaki clan, so it is not difficult to detect a huge chakra collection like the Three-Tails.

But she wasn't going to say it.

After walking for another half day, Saki Wu suddenly looked in the direction of the stern of the ship and said, "It seems that you are not the only ones interested in the Three-Tails."

Within the perception range of Kagura's inner eye, at some point, six teams with impressive chakra were quickly coming in this direction.

Originally, there were many wandering ninjas who were secretly observing on both sides of the river, as well as some informants from the Ninja clan of the Kingdom of Water.

Any ninja who stands in front of this huge group of chakra will be wiped out in an instant.

After more than ten breaths, the masters of these chakras that came from the water finally showed their true colors.

The leader was a dark-skinned ninja with half green and half white hair and a blue pattern on his right eye.

The moment he saw the other party, Xue Lian's always relaxed expression became nervous: "It turned out to be Kumogakure's Jinchūri Fukai. Why did they appear here? What on earth are the intelligence squad doing?"

Yagura was also shocked, and then looked at the ninja with half green and half white hair: "Are they also here to snatch the tailed beasts?!"

"Bringing so many elites together can't just be here for a visit."

As he spoke, Saki looked at Kumo Ninja.

The ninjas guarding Fukai all have strong chakra fluctuations, their movements are neat and uniform, and their eyes are sharp. It is obvious that their standards are not low.

I'm afraid it's the escort team specially arranged by Kumogakure for this Eight-Tailed Jinchuuriki.

The Eight-Tailed Jinchu Lifukai also scanned several people, and finally stopped at Xue Lian, with a dangerous light flashing in his eyes.

He made a gesture, and the Kumo ninja guards who were originally following him immediately formed a formation and surrounded the ship where Saki Mai and others were riding.

Fukai stood directly in front of the ship, staring at Xue Lian, and said coldly: "I didn't expect that this operation would have unexpected gains. In addition to the three tails, it could also capture the head of the Snow Clan leader."

Although Fukai's strength cannot be compared with the later two-tailed jinchuriki Yukito and the eight-tailed jinchuriki Kirabi.

But his partial tailed beast transformation was enough to make him look proud of other ninjas of the same level.

Don't underestimate the partial tailed beast transformation.

Conventional ninjutsu has extremely limited effect when facing a jinchūriki protected by a tailed beast coat.

This can be seen from the battle between Orochimaru and Four-Tailed Naruto.

Even the extremely sharp Kusanagi sword could not break through the tailed beast coat wrapped around Naruto.

At the critical moment, Xue Lian stood up.

He looked at Fukai and said in a deep voice: "According to the agreement, the three-tailed beast is the tailed beast assigned to the Water Kingdom by the First Hokage. By doing this, does the Kingdom of Thunder want to openly tear up the agreement and start a war with the Kingdom of Water?"
