There was no conversation that night, and time passed quietly like running water.

The next day, under the leadership of the old Konoha senior, Yusuke and his three companions successfully boarded the merchant ship.

There are many people on the merchant ship. According to Shiho Aburame, most of the leaders are ordinary people without chakra. Only some guards and mercenaries hired by merchants at high prices have more or less chakra.

After all, sailing on the sea is full of dangers, in addition to the unpredictable weather, there are also ferocious pirates. After the workers were busy moving the goods, the merchant ship finally set sail towards the country of craftsmen.

Yusuke and the others put on some disguises, and at this moment they were all standing quietly on the deck, holding the railings, and leisurely enjoying the sea breeze.

From time to time, a few people came over to talk, and Yusuke chatted with them enthusiastically with a smile on his face, as if they were really a group of businessmen.

And so, some time passed.

"Master, according to estimates, we are almost at the Water Country." Aburame Shiho and Shimura Maki walked into the room carrying food. Since they stepped onto the ship, they quickly entered their roles and performed their respective roles in perfect harmony.

Not counting the one-day stay in the Land of Craftsmen, it took eight days to sail. Yusuke and his crew were lucky and did not encounter any accidents along the way.

Yusuke nodded and said, "Maki, you go in front and prepare more coins." Seeing Shimura Maki nodded, Yusuke picked up the chopsticks and began to enjoy the meal.

Soon, the merchant ship arrived at the dock, and a team of ninjas quickly assembled on the shore. After the leader nodded, the people on the merchant ship disembarked in an orderly manner under the command of the crew.

"Are you from the Land of Fire?" A Mist Ninja crossed his arms over his chest, frowned, and stared at Yusuke and his group with a serious expression, his eyes full of vigilance.

"Mr. Ninja, this is the first time for my young master to come to the Land of Water. I hope you can give him some convenience." Shimura Maki quickly grabbed the Mist Ninja's hand and held it tightly.

The Mist Ninja was murderous at first, but then he felt a familiar touch on his hand. A barely perceptible smile flashed across his face, but he quickly returned to his serious expression. "Don't be nervous, this is just a routine inquiry."

After releasing his hand, he weighed the thickness in his hand and coughed. "Since this is your first time here, I still need to tell you the rules. Your activities are limited to this island. You cannot wander around other places. Otherwise, if you are caught as a spy, you will not be able to go back."

Yusuke approached the Mist Ninja, lowered his voice, and asked in confusion, "Why? When we go to other countries, there is no such rule."

There was a puzzled look on his face, his brows were furrowed, and his eyes were full of confusion.

"Boy, this is the rule of the Water Country, don't ask too many questions..." Before he could finish, Shimura Maki secretly stuffed a handful of coins into his pocket.

"Ahem." He pointed in the other direction and said, "Come with me, I need to go over there to check on your situation." After saying that, he immediately headed in the direction he pointed.

As for the other Mist Ninjas, they didn't say anything when they saw this scene. They just sighed in their hearts that this guy was very lucky to have met a fat sheep, so they checked more strictly.

After Yusuke stuffed another handful of coins into his pocket, he smiled ingratiatingly and asked, "Sir, we are in the jewelry business, but what we really want to do is the business in Kirigakure or the Daimyo Prefecture."

"Oh?" He looked at the few people and saw that they didn't bring much gifts, so he asked, "What jewelry?" Yusuke glanced at Shimura Maki, and he quickly took out an exquisite bracelet and handed it over.

"This thing is really good." He stuffed it into his pocket without any hesitation, and then a solemn expression appeared on his face:

"Recently, we received an order from the top leaders of Kirigakure. In addition to checking merchant ships and other outsiders, we also added a lot of people to the patrol. Many people estimated that a war was going to break out in Kirigakure."

"War?" Yusuke and others exclaimed in a low voice, and the Mist Ninja was very satisfied with their reaction.

"Shh!" The Mist Ninja who had reacted instantly widened his eyes, staring at Yusuke and the others, lowering his voice and whispering a warning, "This is a secret, keep it to yourself!"

His eyes were full of seriousness, and he looked around with a frown, looking nervous.

"Sir, I won't hide it from you. We were in the Land of Thunder last month, and the atmosphere there was completely different. Although it was also strict, there was no obstruction to us merchants." Yusuke frowned, sighed, and said helplessly with a worried look on his face.

"You also went to the Land of Lightning?" the Mist Ninja said angrily. His face was full of resentment, and he gritted his teeth in anger and said, "People from their own Daimyo Prefecture died for unknown reasons, and they blamed us. Now we have to track down the murderer day and night."

After saying that, he did not forget to remind Youjie and the others, "Don't tell anyone about this, okay?" He stared at Youjie and the others with a serious expression.

"We understand, I'm just a businessman. In that case, we'll take our leave first." Yusuke said respectfully, he bowed slightly with a humble smile on his face.

"Wait a minute..." The Mist Ninja suddenly called out to Yusuke and the others, with a hint of inquiry flashing in his eyes, "Don't you want to go to the Hidden Mist Village?"

"Sir, do you have a solution?" Yusuke said with a gleam in his eyes. He looked at him expectantly.

A smug smile appeared on the Mist Ninja's face, and then he said mysteriously: "We have a ship, a legal merchant ship."

"I hope you can introduce me to someone else." Yujie said respectfully with a sincere look on his face. "Although we don't have much money this time, we can still give some out."

"There's no rush. I still need to ask the captain for permission. You guys come find me at the dock tomorrow morning." The Mist Ninja shook his head, then signaled that they could leave first.

"Master, are we really going to take the Kirigakure ship?" Aburame Shiho asked doubtfully, her eyes full of worry, "Didn't they say someone would pick us up?"

"Over there." Yujie pointed to the front and saw a man waving at them.

"Young Master, isn't it a bit hasty to meet up so blatantly?" Aburame Shiho looked at the Mist Ninja on the other side and found that no one was paying attention to them.

"The more blatant we are, the more it proves that we are not spies." Yusuke laughed, his face full of confidence.

"Maki, check the code," Yusuke ordered.

After checking the code, he saluted towards Yusuke and said, "Sir, my name is Kojiro. This is not the place to talk. Please follow me."

After saying that, he turned and walked forward, taking Yusuke and the others with him, leaving the dock and heading towards the base.
