MTL - The Life of a Villain Starting From Naruto-Chapter 197 Frontier of civilization
Chapter 197 The Frontier of Civilization
“You three, please board the ship.” The sailor in a coarse shirt handed the key to Uchiha Shisui:
“The independent cabin you booked is very quiet. Those drunken wanderers usually don’t go there... By the way, do any of you get seasick?”
Teenagers and girls shook their heads one after another. Ninjas have well-developed motor nerves and have chakra to adjust their metabolism, so they are basically not troubled by motion sickness.
The sailor breathed a sigh of relief:
"That's good. The wind and waves in the center of the ocean have been too strong recently. We have to live a hard life for a few days. It's good if we don't get seasick, so as not to suffer."
Zhi Shui smiled and thanked him. After the sailors left, he did not enter the cabin. Instead, he and his companions leaned on the fence and looked at the harbor.
The port is very bustling, with busy stevedores everywhere, and a lively atmosphere permeates the entire terminal. But if you look outside, you will see a jaw-dropping opposite scene.
In the distance, there are buildings corroded by acid rain and microorganisms. There are countless ruins. If you have good eyesight, you can still see the pale bones buried under the soil.
—That’s the ruins of Uzushio Village!
When Konoha ninjas come here to take a boat, they always feel uncomfortable when they see the remains of the whirlpool in the distance.
However, due to its strategic location, the side of the Whirlpool Kingdom ruins near the sea was transformed into a large port, and money was made every day. It is said that the person who spent the money to build this place was an underground gold exchange, and the Fire Nation also had a stake.
A few strokes in the book, major events that have changed the trajectory of countless people’s lives, have long been lost in the dust of history.
It is worth mentioning that what the sailor said is indeed true. When sailing to the middle of the sea, the wind and waves are indeed strong. Even a large ship made of solid materials is swaying left and right in the violent storm, which has no impact on the power of nature. There is no way.
The three members of the original ninth class first blew a gust of sea breeze on the deck, and then returned to the cabin.
The relationship between Uzumaki and Senju is quite good. When Uzumaki Mito married Senju Hashirama, the dowry sealing scrolls had to be transported by a team of carriages. In order to show the friendship with the Uzumaki clan for generations, Konoha's classic green set The Uzumaki clan emblem is printed on the back of the combat uniform!
Even putting aside their close relationship with the Senju, Uzumaki is a very powerful ancient family, strong enough to establish Uzushio Village and the Country of Uzumaki on their own.
The days at sea are boring. Everywhere you look, there are either old cabins or the same sea. After the freshness wears off, it becomes boring.
The big ship set sail and left the harbor. After a while, the black shadow of the mainland became blurred until it disappeared on the horizon.
The country was destroyed and the family was destroyed, the tribesmen were killed and scattered all over the place, and the accumulated wealth and heritage were robbed. Even because of the super war that broke out, this land was no longer suitable for growing crops.
"Why did Uzushio Village and Uzumaki Country fall so quickly, and which forces took action?" Not many people in the ninja world today know. It was a blockade that was ten thousand tighter than "Three Magatama in the Eyes of the Nine-Tails" The absolute secret.
But such a glorious clan and country were destroyed overnight.
After experiencing some hardships, the sea finally calmed down. After a few days and nights, the ship slowly slowed down and finally anchored in the port.
—The Kingdom of the Sea has arrived.
The three people in Konoha disembarked from the ship. After many days, they finally stepped on the ground again. This is completely different from the Land of Fire. It is a country far away from the center of the world. On the world map of the Ninja School, the Kingdom of the Sea is right next to the border line, and it is a true frontier of civilization.
As for the places further out on the map, it is probably a deserted land without human traces.
Stepping on the beach, Shisui took a deep breath, his eyes suddenly turned scarlet, and the three magatama slowly rotated.
The air is humid and slightly fishy, the sun is very bright... the chakra is almost nonexistent.
“Sparse use of chakra.” Shisui glanced at the worn Kirigakure flag planted on the beach and walked at the front.
Although the Country of the Sea is at the border of the civilized world, it is quite rich in natural resources, has very developed fishery and animal husbandry, and has a variety of special products. The sales volume in various parts of the Ninja World is very good. Even after deducting taxes and fees, the Country of the Sea can still make a lot of money.
What really makes the country of the sea be given the disdainful nickname of "remote fishing village" is that the people in this area cannot synthesize chakra with physical energy and spiritual energy!
This is not a gap in innate qualifications, but a deeper curse—not just the sea country, but other soils far away from the center of the world also have the same problem.
However, no matter what the reason is, the result is the same. Without chakra, ninjas cannot be born, and they will be excluded from mainstream powers, and it will be difficult to protect themselves.
In the past, in order to prevent foreign ninjas from causing trouble, the Kingdom of the Sea hired Kirigakure ninjas. The Kingdom of Water even had a department specifically responsible for the security of the Kingdom of the Sea. The relationship between the two countries was very harmonious, and the sea water did not separate them.
But a few years ago, Kirigakure suddenly closed the village gate and became even more closed, making it difficult for ninjas to come out. As a result, the Kingdom of the Sea and the Kingdom of Water gradually drifted apart.
Nowadays, in this borderland of civilization, ninjas are a rare and rare species.
It was the first time for the three members of the original Class 9 to come to the Kingdom of the Sea. They were very curious about everything here. They were not in a hurry to find Hinata Yuuto. Instead, they walked around and combined with the information about the Kingdom of the Sea provided by the village, first Get to know the customs and customs here.
The Konoha ninjas are used to being in the Land of Fire, and subconsciously feel that the Kingdom of the Sea must be very backward, like a primitive tribe. The fishermen go into the sea with iron forks to fight with big fish, and their lives are miserable.
But unexpectedly, along the way, the trio discovered that the country's way of life was very...civilized.
They cut through the cliffs at the seaside, inserted huge gears into the seawater, introduced rivers to drive the gears, and then used strange chemical methods to attract fish schools. A fishing gear with a diameter of ten meters can harvest hundreds of tons in a day. .
The country of the sea has a steep terrain, and it is impossible to sell the fish caught on the spot. Most of them must be made into dried fish or fish cakes and other easy-to-preserve items. Therefore, conveyor belts were built on both sides of the road. The workers Once the fish is put into the box, the box will automatically rise to a high processing point, which is extremely labor-saving.
Uchiha Shisui couldn't figure out the source of power for this thing, so he couldn't help but open his Sharingan and observe carefully. Only then did he discover that many devices were connected to the center of the island and received power from there. As for what was in the center, it was Whether it was an undersea whirlpool or a volcano, Shisui couldn't guess.
Although they can't see it, the three young ninjas in Konoha understand that although there is no chakra, the Kingdom of the Sea cleverly uses the energy of nature, and people still live well... No, look at the clothes of the residents here Dressed up, their quality of life is definitely better than that of most Fire Nation civilians.
The so-called border is just the border of "ninja civilization".
