The blind swordsman selling pots in Konoha

The endless Gobi Desert is filled with heat waves and windy sand.

A patch of green that is inconspicuous in comparison adds a bit of vitality to the desolate Gobi.

The thick trunk keeps out the heat waves and wind and sand, and the extended branches spread to the middle lake to block the lake. The sunlight follows the gaps between the branches and leaves and forms dots of starlight on the lake.

A tall and towering tree grew strangely in the middle of the lake. What was even more strange was that there were five people and a cat sitting in the shade below, standing or squatting on the branches of this tree.

Fortunately, the tree was tall enough and its crown was large enough, so the six maverick Sun thieves on it were not killed by the sun.

"Welcome everyone to the desert of Mara. I announce that the first Mara Cup will be sponsored by Konoha Jounin Kurenai and joined by Kakashi Jounin, Asuma Jounin and Kai Jounin. I will exclusively sponsor it. The fishing competition officially begins now!”

Following Shaz's order, the sound of water entering the lake, which was obscured by branches and leaves, suddenly came from the lake.

"I would like to emphasize again that although ninjutsu can be used in this fishing competition, it is strictly prohibited to attack fishing rods, fishing lines and cans used as bait. Once entangled in fishing lines, it is forbidden to use violence to break away. At the same time, it is forbidden to attack the shelter below. Otherwise, the results will be deemed invalid.”

"I will also mention the rewards again. Each contestant below the water will be rewarded 100,000 taels for each can he successfully catches, and each contestant above the water will be rewarded 50,000 taels for each contestant below the water that successfully catches one."

"The total prize money is 10 million, first come first served. At the same time, the winning party can receive an additional 5 million bonus!"

"Everyone, throw the pole~"

As Shaz explained the rules of the game again, the four Jonin in the tree and Shaz himself threw the poles at the same time, and the five fishing lines tied to the cans suddenly fell into the water from the gaps in the dense branches and leaves below.

Due to the barrier on the lake, these fishermen can almost only rely on their own perception to control the fishing rod and drive the fishing line to "fish".

Competitors below the water can use the cover of obstacles above to quietly approach the bait and remove the bait before the fisherman notices.

This is a unique 5V12 competitive game!

Everyone in the tree closed their eyes and concentrated on sensing the subtle fluctuations from the fishing rod, ready to use the attached chakra to drive the fishing line to tie the "fish" in the water.

Except for Kakashi, who was half lying on a tree branch reading a pornographic novel.

"If you catch one, you'll be given 50,000 yuan, and if you take away the one, you'll be given 100,000 yuan. So why should I bother? Wouldn't it be better to let them give me half of it later?"

Kakashi decided to teach Shaz a lesson!

However, seeing Kakashi's casual appearance, Shaz also thought of this.

So Schatz decided to change the rules.

"The game is suspended and the rules of the game need to be changed."

At this time, almost everyone was dissatisfied and complained one after another.

"What are you doing?"

"Why change?"

"Just change it no matter what."

……

"The game has already started. Is it too late to change it now?" Kakashi said confidently.

"I am the exclusive sponsor, I can change it however I want!"

Kakashi rolled his eyes: This guy is really good at being shameless.

"With the new rules, the extra five million bonus remains unchanged. It's still the angler or the fish who wins."

"But the 20 million will be changed to all belong to the angler's side, and each person will share million equally. If the fisherman takes one, he will get from the corresponding angler. The remaining money will go to the angler. If the fisherman should More than pieces were removed from my hands...I have to pay for them to be replaced!"

Speaking of this, Shaz focused on Kakashi.

As expected, Kakashi put away the novel with a pained face, and seemed to be getting serious.

"In addition, after the fish is caught, you have to wait ten minutes before entering the game again. The entire game is also time-limited, with a time limit of three hours."

"Do you understand?"

Shaz asked loudly.

Naruto: "No!"

"Okay." Shaz nodded: "Now that I understand everything, let's start the game again!"

Naruto:? ? ?

Whether you understand it or not, the game begins.

The four of them threw the pole again, feeling more nervous than before in addition to concentrating.

Two million, even if they are high-income jounin, it is not a small amount.

Not to mention the possibility of losing money! It must be taken seriously!

At the same time, under the cover of leaves, twelve people were floating on the water with their heads exposed, ready to discuss countermeasures.

The new method of competition is more disadvantageous to them than the old one. Fighting alone is no longer possible, and must be fought as a team.

"Don't make any noise yet. They are all Jonin. They can definitely hear us discussing here."

"Go underwater and let's communicate in code."

Hearing Sasuke's suggestion, everyone nodded, and all twelve people dived underwater.

The first thing Sasuke did when he dived underwater was to look for Hinata and point his finger at his eyes.

"Use your Byakugan to see who is on the other side of those cans." Sasuke gestured.

Hinata nodded, opened her Byakugan and shared the information with everyone.

"Don't touch Shaz's can, he's blind and perception is his strength."

"The other ones, Kakashi, Kurenai, and Asuma, are all Ninjutsu masters and have strong chakra control, so I suggest that we take turns to get Gai's."

Sasuke planned the tactics.

However, this tactic was opposed by the trio of Kai's team as soon as it was proposed.

Especially Xiao Li, who was shaking his arms wildly to express his rejection.

"I know it's not good to catch him and target him alone, but...don't you want to win?"

Xiao Li shook his head and continued to wave his arms.

In the end, Tiantian couldn't stand it anymore, so she gestured to help Xiao Li explain: "Teacher Akai is a master of physical skills. Although his perception is not strong, he is very sensitive to vibrations. The slight vibrations caused when we took the cans must be Can’t hide it from him.”

Xiao Li immediately stopped shaking his arms and nodded to Tiantian to indicate that this was what he meant.

Sasuke suddenly realized that he had forgotten about this just now.

"Then who do you think is easier to deal with? Kakashi and Shaz are definitely not easy to deal with." Sasuke asked with a gesture.

As soon as he asked Sasuke, he regretted it. There were five people in total, but now three of them had been eliminated, and only two were left. What else was there to choose?

"Just Asuma and Kurenai, we will divide into two teams and attack at the same time." Sasuke changed.

The others nodded, but Shino shook his head.

Sasuke frowned, wondering what happened to Shino this time.

"The three of us are sentient ninjas, and Kurenai-sensei is our guiding jounin."

Crowd: ...

In unison, everyone looked at Shikamaru and the others.

Sasuke, in particular, has a "if you exclude him, I'll beat you to death" attitude.

Shikamaru looked around, and when he found that even Choji and Ino were staring at him, he could only spit out bubbles helplessly.

"Then let's discuss specific tactics. There are a lot of shadows here. I can use secret techniques to control Asuma-sensei, but only for a moment at most." Shikamaru gestured half-deadly.

"I don't recommend that you use ninjutsu to attack them directly. Not only is it useless, but once the cover above is broken, it will be more difficult for us to win."
