Tamu Immortal of Mt. Miaomu

Chapter 168 Terumi Mei's Nami Country Mission

Three months later
Wuyin Village, Shuiying Office, there was a heavy knock on the door.

"Terumimei-sensei, isn't this impolite?"

A thin layer of cold sweat oozes from the forehead of Ghost Lamp Mizuki, and he said to his teacher Terumi Mei nervously.

Unlike Kimomaro and Shiro, for Mizukage Mizukage who has been living in Wuyin Village, the deterrent power of the Fourth Mizukage Yakura is basically at the same level as that of demons.

And his teacher was banging on the door of Mizukage's office.
"Stop knocking"

"Come in directly!"

A young and powerful voice sounded, but it was not as angry as Shuiyue imagined.

"What are you summoning us for, Yakura?"

Terumi Mei pushed open the door very bluntly, and called her by his name familiarly.

Yagura sat in front of Mizukage's desk, his thin body was covered under the wide Mizukage Imperial Robe, and the young and handsome boy's face was even more out of place with the big word "Water" on the bamboo hat.

"Is Mizukage-sama so young?"

"It doesn't look much older than us"

Bai asked curiously, under Terumi Mei's precepts and deeds these days, he also unknowingly developed a temperament without taboos.

"Haha." Terumi Mei laughed wantonly, and said, "Don't look at Yakura's appearance, in fact, he has been married for several years."

"Ah?" Shiro looked at Yakura's appearance, which was no more than thirteen or fourteen years old, and when he thought of marriage, some shocking images flashed in his mind.

"Ahem!" Yakura's face was as black as the bottom of a pot.

Guideng Shuiyue was already frightened by the deadly behavior of two nervous teammates, his legs were weak and his body was sweating. He was afraid that the iron-blooded water figure who could stop children from crying at night would send them into the hospital in one breath. concentration camp.
The office finally quieted down, and Yagura just brewed up his emotions, adjusted to the leader's grass-roots model, and asked the three students very kindly:
"How is it, how is life in Wuyin Village these days?"

"You have been Kirigakure ninjas for more than three months. Do you have any difficulties in your mission?"

"Ah?" Guideng Shuiyue didn't react, he just felt a sense of absurdity when Yagura had captured his elder brother.

Bai didn't say a word. This issue is very complicated for him, and he can make [-] episodes of family ethics dramas if he discusses it.

Jun Ma Lu was clean and tidy, looked at Terumi Mei seriously and said: "Life here is very good."

"Isn't it?" Terumi Mei sighed slightly, and choked back directly: "You do this in front of me"

"Stop talking nonsense and talk about business!"

"Cough." Yakura, who has become a habit of engaging in political propaganda in the past few months, coughed a few times:

"Give some respect, okay, I'm Mizukage after all!"

"Cut!" Terumi Mei turned her head away disdainfully.

"Okay, okay. Step back first, I have something to tell your teacher."

Yakura sent the three Genin out with embarrassment. He had a close relationship with Terumi Mei, and he did a lot of bad things during the illusion period, which made him unable to hold his head up in front of his old friends who knew the inside story.

"Tell me, what's the matter?"

Terumi Mei's tone finally became serious, without the previous frivolity, she knew that since Yagura was about to dismiss her three disciples, she obviously had something to tell her.

But Yagura took out a piece of paper from a pile of documents on the table and handed it to Terumi Mei.

Terumi Mei received it and glanced at it. It was a mission entrustment letter: "B-Class Mission: Fleet Escort", and Terumi Mei's name was signed at the end of the mission letter.

Terumi Mei said strangely: "This is the task we just took over from the ninja class. Is there any problem?"

This is the task she chose for the three students, as escorts to protect the business travelers going to sea. This kind of task helps the students get out of the village and get familiar with the geography, culture, climate and other information of the ninja world.

To train the ninja, such a task of going out of the village is essential.

Yakura did not explain directly, but took out a large stack of thick documents and handed them to Terumi Mei.

Terumi looked through it puzzledly, the first document was the mission report sent back by the Jonin of the Kirigakure blood successor search unit, the content was roughly that a blood successor ninja who had defected to the country of the sea disappeared under their surveillance .

"A traitor who disappeared in the kingdom of the sea?"

Terumi Mei frowned slightly, she had already smelled something unusual:

The Kingdom of the Sea is not far from the Kingdom of Water. It is a small country on the sea. It can basically be said to be Kirigakure's back garden.

It is inconceivable that a blood-successor ninja who is not strong enough wants to disappear silently under the surveillance of Kirigakure Kaunin.

"Not only him, but the stack of documents in your hand are all missing reports from neighboring countries around the Kingdom of Water."

"Except for the first report which involved our Ninja Kirigakure, the rest of the missing persons are all civilians, and the victims are all from those small countries on the sea."

"Oh?" Terumi Mei became interested, and flipping through it a little, these documents are indeed reports of missing persons from several small countries around the country of water.

Such things, logically speaking, have nothing to do with Wuyin Village, but Yakura took great pains to collect them, and there must be something hidden behind it.

Yagura continued: "The disappearance of these people all started after I dispelled the illusion."

"I went to investigate the files of our Hidden Fog Village. In fact, during the time I was under control, there were people missing in the Kingdom of Water, and the situation was even worse."

"However, the request for help from the country of water to Wuyin Village was blocked by the mole of the Akatsuki organization at that time."

"What do you mean? The disappearance of these people is related to the Akatsuki organization!"

Terumi Mei understands something. Population has always been a scarce resource in the ninja world, and it is a way to make money in the hands of underground terrorist organizations like Akatsuki.

In addition, for Frankensteins like Red Sand Scorpion and Orochimaru in the organization, high-quality living people are indispensable experimental materials.

Terumi Mei suddenly thought of something again, and couldn't help asking:

"Wait. Does that have anything to do with our Ninja Class mission?"

Yakura's complexion became gloomy, and he said through gritted teeth: "During the time I was under control, the smuggling of people was carried out of the country of water silently through the channels of our Wuyin Village."

Terumi Mei couldn't help but feel depressed. What that organization did to her hometown can be said to be too numerous to write down.

"So, what about now?" Terumi Mei knew that the latter was the key point.

"After I got out of control, the enemy carefully withdrew from the Land of Water completely, and the disappearance of people in our country that had lasted for several years came to an abrupt end."

"But as you can see, it was almost at the same time that the disappearances of the small maritime nations started."

Terumi Mei can understand that those small countries basically don't even have a decent ninja organization.

And the trivial matter of the disappearance of civilians will not be paid attention to by those in power, let alone the attention of the Ninja Village of the big country.

Yagura's tone became serious: "If it wasn't for the search force I sent to hunt for blood-following ninjas in the sea kingdom, maybe I wouldn't have noticed these things at all."

"The whereabouts of these missing persons mostly point to a shipping company."

"Shipping company?"

"Yes, many of these missing persons have been seen appearing on ships under the name of that company."

"Moreover, in the past few months, that company has suddenly started recruiting long-term seafarers with extremely high remuneration and placement fees."

"You know, the boss of this shipping company, Kado, is a well-known cheapskate."

Terumi Mei frowned: "The helm of a big power suddenly changed his temperament?"

"It's such a familiar plot."

Yagura smiled and said: "It just so happens that you have accepted the task of escorting the fleet, and you will pass by Kado's old lair, Namanokuni, along the way."

"If I leave the investigation task to you, a teacher with three genin, you won't be able to alert the enemy."

"Besides, you are one of the few insiders, and your strength is strong enough."

"I understand!" Terumi Mei nodded seriously, "I will start to investigate!"

"I'll leave it to you!"

Yagura sighed, recalling those citizens of the country of water who disappeared during his misstep, he was a little depressed.

Terumi Mei said goodbye, turned around and pushed the door out, her solemn face suddenly changed back to her original lazy look.

"Why, is Mizukage-sama looking for something from the teacher?"

After waiting for a long time for the teacher to come out, Bai asked curiously.

"It's nothing serious." Terumi Mei hid a gleam in his eyes, and said meaningfully:
"Let's go, it's time to take you to see the real ninja world!"
