Chapter 270 The shocking giant melon
When Hanami Akira found Zabuza and Haku, the two were cooking in perfect harmony.
Zabuza was responsible for cutting the fish into pieces, and then Shiro used his ability to make ice sculptures on the plate, and then put the thin pieces of meat on top of each other. It looked like they were going to eat sashimi today?
This is a bit high-end!
Looking at the exquisite iceberg statue and the fish fillets on it, even Hanami Akira, who doesn't like eating raw food very much, has some appetite.
"It seems like you two are living a good life."
Hua Jianming suddenly jumped in front of the two of them and spoke with a smile.
"Even my vigilance has dropped a lot! It seems that if I hadn't laughed too loudly before, you wouldn't have noticed me."
It was only then that Zabuza and Haku suddenly realized that someone had broken in, and they took up arms and became alert.
This reaction speed would have been absolutely impossible five years ago. If the two of them were so slow five years ago, they would have been killed.
Zabuzawa was obviously aware of this, and he couldn't help but show a complicated look on his face.
Five years ago, because they negotiated a "deal" with Hanami Akira, the two came to the country of Waves incognito, preparing to take the first step of their ambitions - of course, the only one who really hid his identity was Zabuza, and Haku was not at all
Ninja, no one is chasing him, he is a hero as long as he takes off his mask.
Zabuza, who went by the pseudonym "Black", and a boy named Shiro formed the "Black and White Two Evils" Nami Ninja combination and came to the Country of Waves. Their original intention was to take advantage of the small and weak country here and the inconvenient transportation to hide themselves.
The Ninja Village was developed and became a base for the counterattack against Kirigakure, but...
"After so many years, you have really achieved nothing except being a rebel army."
Hua Jianming looked at the two of them with a very disappointed expression.
"If this continues, I think you won't be able to wait until the plan is implemented, and Kirigakure Village will usher in new reforms."
"What do you mean?!"
When he mentioned the Mist Ninja Village, Zabuza immediately became energetic.
"What happened to Kirigakure Village? Could it be that someone is planning a coup?"
"Haha, who knows?"
Hanami Akira looked at Zabuza with a mysterious face but said nothing.
He wouldn't say it, but he was actually quite satisfied with the progress of these two people.
In the final analysis, he just wants to "corrode" the country of Waves and become Konoha's younger brother, and then become a help rather than an obstacle when the real "fateful day" arrives in the future.
The deal between him and the two of them was that they would build a "Hainin Village" to accumulate strength and counterattack Kirigakure, and then hand over the Hainin Village to his (Konoha) control, while they would return to Kirigakure to take power.
This cooperation was proposed by Hua Jianming. The two of them felt that the plan was unlikely to succeed, but it was still better than just messing around, so they agreed.
However, until now, these two guys have not been able to establish a ninja village. They have only become a flag in the country to resist the forces of Cardo and the exploitation of daimyo.
Of course, as far as Hanami Akira is concerned, the behavior of these two guys in dividing the country of Waves into several groups of forces is exactly what he wants - how can things taken from other people be as reliable as what they have established themselves?
Zabuza and Haku were thrown in by Akira Hanami to mess up the situation, so they could fish in troubled waters.
In view of the current chaotic situation in the Country of Waves, it would be more convenient for him to establish his power.
But he would not say these words to these two people. After all, this was just a small calculation in his heart, and their original agreement was very high-end.
"It seems that I made a wrong choice. It was a waste of time and emotion to keep you two alive!"
As Hana Jianming spoke, his eyes gradually became dangerous.
Hearing this, Zabuza's face turned cold, but he did not act as directly as he did many years ago - he already clearly knew the strength gap between the two.
After so many years, they will naturally not make any progress, let alone slack off.
On the contrary, because they were coerced into a "cooperative" relationship, Shiro and Zabuza had actually practiced very hard. However, the environment was a very important interfering factor.
In a self-sufficient country like the Country of Waves, which is so poor that it is almost useless, except for the occasional pirates and short-sighted thieves, there are almost no foreign enemies coming. This is a place where there is no money to be made.
No matter how hard they practice, without the experience of fighting outside, they are still somewhat mentally relaxed, and their reactions are not as sharp as before.
What's more, because the people of the Country of Waves rarely communicate with the outside world, although they are a little ignorant, they are also very simple and simple, and they quickly accepted the two unique "wanderers".
With the help of these enthusiastic indigenous people, the two successfully took root here, and were unknowingly affected by the rhythm and folk customs here.
In fact, if he didn't still have his own desires and ambitions deep in his heart, Zabuza would have thought that it would be good to live a stable life here with Shiro.
Even Zabuza can't help but have this kind of mentality, not to mention Haku who has been wandering since he was a child and spent his time wandering and being hunted after meeting Zabuza.
Bai's nature is kind and gentle, and he doesn't like fighting. His days in the Country of Waves were the happiest time he spent after being exposed to the blood, just like in a dream.
There is Zabuza-sama here. There are no wars, pursuits, conspiracies and tricks. The villagers here did not call him a monster after discovering his Ice Release. Instead, they respected him very much and thanked him for helping to preserve the sea goods...
Bai, who originally didn't like killing and fighting, may have deteriorated his skills in such an environment, even worse than he was at this time in the original work.
Perhaps his only specialty is that he is now very good at making various icehouses to preserve seafood.
People who are exposed to sunlight will find it difficult to return to darkness. People who have lived in a peaceful world will naturally resist returning to chaos and bloodshed.
Although in the eyes of most people, the Land of Waves is chaotic, for people like Zabuza and Haku who fight in the darkness, it is indeed a peaceful and safe paradise.
Seeing how Zabuza was just glaring at him instead of directly slashing with the sword, we knew how well the other person had cultivated his character in the past few years.
"I think you are quite happy here, how about you just settle here?"
"Impossible! I -"
Zabuza was about to refuse, but the words were stuck on his lips again, and he turned to look at Shiro.
He naturally understands this child who has followed him since he was a child. For Bai, he must want to be happy here and continue to live like this, right?
"Please don't pay attention to me, I will not kill you."
Shiro showed a gentle smile and looked at Zabuza with clear and firm eyes.
"I will always be your tool and your follower. As long as it is your wish, it is what my heart wants."
If possible, Shiro certainly doesn't want Zabuza to do those dangerous things, but he is considerate and understands Zabuza's dream, so he won't stop it.
All he can do is stand in front of Zabuza-sama, and no one can hurt his lord until he dies.
Shiro took a step forward, stood in front of Zabuza, and said, "I understand what you mean, Hanami Akira-sama. We have indeed not completed the task of establishing Hanin Village, but your purpose is not actually a good or bad thing."
There is no Ninja Village, isn’t it?”
What Bai said was very bold. He was delicate and intelligent, and he had obviously guessed something.
"We have a prominent position in the rebel army, and the leader of the rebel army also has a close relationship with us. These will definitely be helpful to you."
Bai obviously realized that if they couldn't come up with something valuable, they would be punished or even killed by Hua Jianming for "failed transaction", so he took out the valuable contacts the two of them had accumulated over the years.
"More importantly, we have very important informants in Daming Mansion. No matter what you want to do, it will be much more convenient..."
"I've almost guessed it...the informant you mentioned is Zinbo, the wife of the rebel leader Kesha, right?"
"!!!"
At this moment, not only Shiro was shocked, but Zabuza was also extremely stunned.
They did not expect that Hanami Akira and others would know such an important thing just after they arrived here. If these things were not investigated in a short time, then it means that Konoha has been monitoring this place.
No matter what the possibility is, it seems that they are no match.
"Huh, I didn't expect you to even know this. Then I'm afraid I can't hide the rest from you either."
Bai smiled bitterly, he thought this would be a big bargaining chip!
However, the other party still said something wrong, which made him somewhat relieved.
"Yes, Jinbo is our informant and the daimyo's lady. Thanks to her, we can legitimately contact the daimyo's lady and let the rebel army grow to where it is today, but..."
"..."
Wait, the daimyo lady is in contact with the rebel army?
Hua Jianming's head was full of questions, and he realized that he might have eaten a big melon accidentally.
Seeing Hanami Akira's confused look, Shiro and Zabuza's lips curled up into smiles.
Finally there is something the other party doesn’t know, I feel so happy!
"You just said something wrong. Zinbo is our informant, and she is indeed the intermediary between us and the daimyo's wife. However, that woman is not Kesha's wife."
Zabuza opened his mouth and dropped a bombshell.
"Although we publicly claimed that it was Tsunbo who saved Kesha, so the two fell in love and got married, and even Kesha didn't mind that Tsunbo had an ex-husband and a child, in fact, it was the daimyo lady who came out to relax who saved Kesha."
"???"
What kind of god unfolds the plot?!
Hua Jianming was stunned. This time, even though he was always calm, he couldn't help but widen his eyes.
Is this also the butterfly effect he brought about?
Chapter completed!
