Chapter 222 Rescue
Land of Thunder, Port of Tui.
The shopkeepers from Jieshui sat on their boats, their faces full of worry.
They have been stuck in the port for half a month.
Although food and drink are provided on board, the question remains whether I will be able to leave.
"I wonder how Lord Mizukage plans to handle this matter," sighed the merchant guild's deputy, He Gu.
The chamber of commerce's president, Yuan Chong, patted him on the shoulder:
“Our Mizukage is different now; he will definitely find a way.”
When He Gu saw Yun Yin monitoring him from the dock, he couldn't help but feel uneasy: "I hope so."
Splash splash splash...
A barely perceptible splash was heard, and two small figures emerged from the water and submerged beneath the boat.
Then it adhered to the boat and silently boarded it.
"Yuan Chong..."
Upon hearing that familiar voice, Yuan Chong jumped and turned around abruptly.
He discovered that two people were standing behind him.
"Lord Mizukage!"
Yuan Chong was both surprised and delighted, never expecting that the Mizukage would come in person.
"What brings you here? This is the territory of the Land of Thunder."
He was very touched that his own Mizukage had come all this way, but this was the Land of Lightning, and it was undoubtedly very risky.
Yagura waved his hand, not saying anything to win people over; those were all empty words.
The most important thing is that they come.
"Let's not talk about that anymore. How many people are there in Cloud Village? Who is guarding them?"
Yuan Chong understood what Shuiying meant and immediately replied:
"There aren't many Cloud Village guards here, only about a hundred, and they are all genin and chunin."
"But there should still be some experts nearby who haven't shown themselves yet."
Chiyo, disguised as Yagura Karatachi, leaned against the ship's edge with his arms crossed and said:
"It can only be Killer Bee, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki."
Yagura also agreed with Chiyo's statement, since the Raikage's arm was broken and Yugito was also injured.
The only one in relatively good condition is the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki, a highly skilled individual.
"It's a bit difficult for us to evacuate safely."
Everyone knows that the eight-tailed octopus is a bull octopus, which is very agile underwater.
Although it may not be faster than the Isobu River, other ordinary people traveling in such cumbersome boats would only end up sinking.
"How many people do we have?" Yagura asked Hara Takashi after hearing Chiyo's analysis.
Yuan Chong replied without hesitation, "Our chamber of commerce has 42 members; the rest are sailors."
Upon hearing the number 42, Yagura Kuraki pondered, "Is there a spare ship?"
Yuan Chong waved his hand, and a muscular crew member walked over.
He carried a huge scroll on his back, a full meter wide.
The larger the storage scroll, the more items it can hold.
Yuan Chong pointed to the scroll: "We have a small boat for escape, just big enough to fit us in."
Yagura immediately gave the order:
"Go and gather all your men together. Give the other sailors some money and let them come back on their own."
These sailors are usually hired temporarily, and most of them are ordinary people.
Their professional skills are not comprehensive; most of the time they do manual labor.
They didn't even have nationality or identity, since hiring temporary crew was much more cost-effective than maintaining a crew of sailors.
After all, those who trade at sea don't necessarily have a stable source of goods.
The shopkeepers on the boat were all quite familiar with the place, but they couldn't worry about them right now.
Everyone quickly sprang into action.
Yagura and Chiyo exchanged a glance, their eyes hinting at a possible discussion.
Qianyao gave him a reassuring look and waited quietly.
The people on the boat moved around.
The people from Yunyin below immediately noticed that all the hundreds of sailors from the six cargo ships had gathered below.
"What are you doing?! None of you are allowed to leave the port!"
"Let us go! We're just trying to make a living!"
"The people at the shops in Jieshui said they're not hiring us anymore. Are we supposed to stay up there and starve to death?"
"What business is it of ours if they have contraband on board?"
"Are you going to drag us ordinary people into your feud between Kumogakure and Kirigakure?"
These sailors were quite clever; they quickly got into an argument with the Cloud Village below.
The port is not only home to people from Yunyin, but also to merchant ships from many other countries.
The commotion quickly attracted the attention of others.
The impact of such things is still very bad. In addition to profits, a stable environment is also essential for doing business.
It's hard to say how things are handled in the case of Yunyin.
Even if most of the Cloud Village members are musclemen, it's impossible for them to kill all these civilians.
Soon Yunyin went to consult with his superiors.
Chiyo's calculations were correct; the one left behind here was Killer Bee, the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki.
Killer Bee felt extremely guilty about losing his arm.
He felt he should stand with his elder brother so that his brother wouldn't be ambushed.
Upon hearing the report from below, Killer Bee said somewhat irritably:
"Then release them all, but none of the people from Jieshui Shop are allowed to leave, you idiots, you bastards!"
"Yes!"
Killer Bee felt uneasy after the people from Kumogakure left.
"I need to go check on the situation."
……
Everyone on the merchant ship at Tuy Port disembarked.
Taking this opportunity, all the shop's own people gathered together.
They boarded a ship.
The sailors below quickly left the port.
The people of Yunyin gradually sensed something was wrong, because five of the six ships belonging to the Jieshui merchants were completely empty.
Everyone was gathered on a boat.
At this moment, the people from the Jieshui shop used a loudspeaker to shout at Yunyin.
"My lords, we have cleared out five ships. Please inspect them at your leisure."
Please inform us if we find any prohibited items.
The people from Yunyin were dumbfounded. They had no intention of going up to check; these were just excuses.
But the people from the shops in Jieshui kept broadcasting through a loudspeaker, so are they going to investigate or not?
"What's going on!?" Killer Bee saw the Hidden Mist caravan playing this as soon as he arrived.
The people below quickly told Kirabi what had happened.
"Lord Killer Bee, shall we continue the inspection?"
Just then, the message from outside changed.
"Kumakuya ninja lords, since you're not even checking, we'll be leaving."
The merchant ships outside began to hoist their anchors, as if they were about to force their way out.
"Lord Killer Bee, what should we do!?"
"Should we stop them!?"
Killer Bee was already in a bad mood, and now he was even more annoyed: "Damn it, how dare they force their way in!"
"Stop them!"
"Yes!"
The ninjas of Kumogakure quickly mobilized.
Their methods were very simple and brutal.
Five hidden figures formed hand seals towards the slowly moving ship.
"Lightning Release: Lightning Spear!"
Five beams of light shot directly to the bottom of the ship, instantly creating a hole the size of a millstone!
Seawater quickly rushed in!
"Kumakuya, you actually attacked our Land of Water's merchant caravan!"
