"That's true."
Kiba Inuzuka chuckled and said, "I have to thank Kitazawa-sensei for his help."
Time passed by as the group chatted idly.
"Is that the Land of Waves?"
Kiba Inuzuka stood up and pointed to an island not far away.
The island is very large, stretching as far as the eye can see, and many buildings can be vaguely seen on it.
"Ah."
Kitazawa nodded and then asked, "How did you all rest?"
"I've rested enough, I can take on three opponents now!"
Kiba Inuzuka held up three fingers and said.
"Then let's begin the mission."
Kitazawa advised, "You need to find Kado's location first, then infiltrate his house to find valuable information."
"Don't we need to find specific intelligence?"
After a moment's thought, Yamanaka Ino asked the question.
"Whoever can find the employee information of Cardo Shipping Company first will get extra points."
Kitazawa thought for a moment and then said.
"That must be me!"
Kiba Inuzuka raised his arm and said, "Let's go!"
"Wait for us!"
Yamanaka Ino and Tenten quickly caught up with him.
"Hong, follow them secretly."
Kitazawa looked at them and said, "I'm going to the neighboring island to find the Aburame clan's underwater exploration team."
In the original work, Gato hired Zabuza Momochi and Haku because he wanted to assassinate Tazuna.
The story hasn't progressed to that point yet, so there probably won't be any Jonin.
After all, hiring a Jonin as a bodyguard long-term is very expensive.
Furthermore, according to ninja rules, ninjas are not allowed to attack non-ninjas, especially daimyo, nobles, and wealthy merchants.
In the original work, Zabuza Momochi became a rogue ninja and endured Gato's actions on several occasions.
Only on her deathbed did she take him with her to be buried with her.
Of course, not all ninjas adhere to the ninja code.
In the original work, there were also instances where ninjas attacked daimyo.
However, most of them are small countries.
The daimyo of the five great nations are protected by the five great villages, and ordinary ninjas dare not attack them.
In short, this ninja world has its own unique rules.
Although it seemed strange to Kitazawa.
"Ok."
Kurenai Yuhi disappeared from the spot.
Kitazawa casually waved his hand.
Propelled by chakra, the small boat beneath their feet headed east.
A dozen minutes later, an island appeared before his eyes.
This island is much smaller than the Land of Waves. It is deserted, with only a few wooden houses built by the underwater exploration team.
Before Kitazawa even reached the shore, two Aburame clan ninjas dressed in white robes appeared.
"Lord Kitazawa."
Upon recognizing Kitazawa, they immediately bowed and called out.
"how is the situation?"
Kitazawa asked as he walked.
"Lord Kitazawa, my name is Aburame Muta."
After introducing herself, Aburame Muta said, "We have already conducted an exploration, but so far we have not found anything."
Kitazawa nodded.
In the original work, Muta Aburame was a special Jonin with very little screen time, and she was killed by Deidara during the Fourth Shinobi World War.
"Lord Kitazawa, please come in."
After inviting him into the house, Aburame Muta opened a map and said, "This is a map of this sea area."
There's a small circle on the map; that's where the underwater exploration team has explored.
Kitazawa estimated that they hadn't even explored one-thousandth of the area.
“The seabed is under pressure and very deep, so there are only so many places we can explore each day.”
Aburame Muta glanced at his expression and spoke cautiously.
"I see."
Kitazawa thought for a moment and said, "I happen to be free today. Gather the others together, and I'll lend you a hand."
"Yes, Lord Kitazawa."
Although Aburame Muta was puzzled, she did as instructed.
Soon, the entire underwater exploration team arrived.
Kitazawa glanced at them; he didn't recognize any of them.
Aburame Shiki, being the clan leader, has already returned to Konoha.
"set off!"
Kitazawa was the first to board the ship.
This ship belongs to the underwater exploration team. It is a medium-sized vessel that can carry up to twenty people at a time.
Soon, they arrived at the designated sea area.
Aburame Muta looked at Kitazawa.
He still has no idea how he's going to help them explore the ocean depths.
After all, Kitazawa wasn't a ninja of the Aburame clan, so he didn't have any parasitic water insects.
Kitazawa stood on the boat, his hands forming a mudra.
Drawn by the chakra, the seawater spread out to both sides.
"This is……?"
Aburame Muta's eyes widened.
He had already guessed what Kitazawa was planning to do.
Not only him, but the other members of the Aburame clan also realized what was happening and showed expressions of shock.
They didn't not think of this method, but they lacked the ability to implement it.
It should be said that very few people in the entire ninja world could do that.
Surprise flashed in Xiao Nan's eyes as she watched from the shadows.
Forcibly separating the ocean requires not only extremely high water-style skills but also a massive amount of chakra.
Konan remembers that Kitazawa was a commoner ninja with no special bloodline.
How can he have so much chakra?
However, she was more curious about the underwater exploration team than Kitazawa.
What is the purpose of Konoha Village forming an underwater exploration team?
Making money wasn't her first thought.
This is the mindset of a traditional ninja, and she was no exception.
"Use all the bugs!"
Aburame Muta shouted.
Now that the seawater has been separated, other parasites can also use it.
In an instant, swarms of parasitic insects surged toward the seabed.
Kitazawa looked at them, wondering if he would be lucky enough to find some special resources today.
Meanwhile, in the Land of Waves, there was a very luxurious courtyard.
Yamanaka Ino and Tenten hid in a corner and waited.
At their feet was the ninja dog named Yueyue.
After a moment, it spoke, "Lord Fang is approaching."
As soon as it finished speaking, Kiba Inuzuka appeared in front of them with an excited expression.
"How about it?"
Yamanaka Ino couldn't wait to ask.
"With me in charge, there's definitely no problem!"
Kiba Inuzuka took out a teacup and said, "This is the teacup that Kado drank from!"
Yueyue stepped forward and sniffed.
After memorizing the scent, it immediately used its chakra.
In an instant, it became aware of all the places in the courtyard that had the same scent.
"Cado's information must be kept in those hidden places."
Tian Tian reminded her, "Yueyue, please check carefully."
"Ah."
Yueyue nodded and said, "Come with me."
Guided by it, the three of them went through several twists and turns before finally finding Kado's archives.
"As expected of Kitazawa's student, he's really smart."
Kurenai Yuhi, who was observing from the shadows, praised it.
Although the real hero of this infiltration and intelligence gathering was that ninja dog.
Just then, Kurenai Yuhi raised an eyebrow.
A clear, ringing bell rang out.
"This is bad!"
Kiba's expression changed drastically, and he said, "I've fallen into a warning trap!"
He originally intended to retrieve the materials from the bookshelf, but unexpectedly, there was a transparent warning wire in front of the bookshelf.
When he touched it, a bell rang.
He was careless; in his excitement, he forgot to check.
"go!"
Yamanaka Ino said without hesitation.
"We've been discovered!"
