Chapter 146: The Deal Between Meiyu and Sand Village, Robbing Robbing Robbing (Asking for Monthly Tickets)

In the rainy country, it was late and it was raining heavily.

The thick black clouds coiled over the harbor like a python.

There was no thunder in the pouring rain, but only a dead silence, and the wind from far to near stirred up waves in the harbor, blowing the small wooden boats curled up in the harbor like rootless duckweed and making them creak.

In this dark sky, only a horizontal beam of light was emitted, as if it was stretched straight by the wind.

"Ahem, this broken thing will smash you one day!"

On the top of the tall lighthouse, the man who climbed up coughed because of the wind, cursing the manual operation of the clockwork device, turning the lens system that concentrated the light.

The black wind and the hot rain made his face red, and even the lightest boats could be blown up to the sky by the waves and hurricanes.

No one would risk their lives and choose to go out of the harbor in such a bad weather.

Naturally, there is no need for a lighthouse as a fixed luminous beacon to act as a watchman to guide the non-existent ships to the harbor.

However, the lighthouse has never been used only for escort and lighting.

It also symbolizes "hope" and "home", and is the way for this crying country to declare sovereignty and guide people lost at sea to find their way home.

"Finally done."

The soaked man wiped the rain off his face, took a deep breath and stood up.

But when he watched the stagnant beam turn again, a smile appeared on his face full of vicissitudes.

A figure suddenly appeared in the field of vision behind him, with only the upper half of his face exposed, and there was no fluctuation in his eyes, and he mercilessly swung the kunai in his hand at the man in front of him.

Puff!

The blood splashed on the mirror of the lens, making the bright beam originally emitted by the lighthouse stained with deep darkness and scarlet.

After a while, the figure came under the lighthouse and saw the person waiting here.

In the lighthouse room behind him, a yellow lamp was lit. The figure covered by the wide black robe was extremely tall, and it looked like he was more than three meters tall, nearly four meters tall.

The light dragged his black shadow on the ground, and the strong wind rushed into the black robe from every gap, which seemed to highlight his impatience at this time.

Not daring to look at it again, he lowered his head and said respectfully: "Lord Leech, it's solved."

"... Yeah."

After a moment of silence, a muffled answer came from the mouth of the person called "Leech", impatiently saying: "Let someone go up there to watch, I want to see when they come."

"Yes."

The men left in response, and Leech, who was covered by a black robe, turned his head back. In the moonlight, the empty white mask was clearly revealed.

Snap! Snap!

Even if you stand under the tall lighthouse, the heavy rain thrown by the wind will still make your face hurt and turn pale.

But he seemed to have no feeling. Looking at the sea surface that was constantly raising waves, a strong sense of irritation rose in his heart.

He had made up his mind.

After completing today's mission to earn merit, he would never take such troublesome things in the future, no matter what old lady Chiyo said.

If it weren't for the fact that this mission was very profitable, as a puppeteer, he would never perform the mission in this weather.

In fact, as early as two days ago, when they learned about the weather changes here, they wanted to change the trading time and place.

But the guy selling medicine directly rejected this proposal and asked them to continue trading at the original time and place on the grounds that "the heavy rain weather is more concealed."

"Sure enough, when that bastard comes with the goods, we should kill him and pretend it's a shipwreck." Leech said to himself a little crazily.

The trading time they agreed with the herb merchant was almost up, but in this kind of weather, I hope that guy hasn't completely lost himself on the sea and can't find the trading place.

Bang! !

Just as he was thinking about it, a roar of waves crashing and shattering sounded.

Even in a storm, it was still so deafening.

The signal from the Sand Ninja on the lighthouse was blocked, and both Leech and the Sand Ninja hiding in the dark couldn't help but jump in their hearts, and subconsciously looked towards the source of the sound.

I saw a huge black shadow rolling over on the dark sea.

The big waves and storms were torn apart by the bow of the black giant like an anchor, and then pressed under the steel giant with its incredible horsepower.

The bright navigation lights were as dazzling as a lighthouse, tearing through the darkness of the rainy night and covering Leech standing under the lighthouse.

It is hard to imagine that in such a ghost weather, there are still fearless guys who dare to sail, but when Leech saw the giant ship, he did not question whether the other party could do it.

"... Hum, quite interesting."

Looking at the unprecedented, oversized ship, Leech under the mask couldn't help but snort coldly, and his originally anxious heart seemed to be poured with cold water, and he instantly calmed down and began to think secretly.

According to the intelligence collected by the village, the drug dealer's strength and connections are very strong, but his fleet definitely does not meet this standard.

It's as if the technical level has suddenly risen to a higher level out of thin air.

This made Zhizi start to doubt whether the other party is a drug dealer.

Boom!

Just as he was thinking, the anchor was thrown from the docked ship, and the huge splashing waves were swallowed by the sea, and it successfully landed and anchored at the port.

It was not like the ship that was swaying helplessly in the wind and rain like weeds in the distance.

This huge ship that broke through the night, rainstorms and waves, quietly docked at the port, just like a lying giant, and the waves and wind and rain could not shake its towering body at all.

Click!

A figure seemed to jump directly from the deck of the ship. Seeing this scene, Zhizi felt more cautious.

"Ninja? Not the drug dealer? Or is it the bounty ninja he hired?"

Although he is cruel and violent, the only reason he can survive until now and become a puppeteer second only to Chiyo and self-confessed to be no weaker than the Duomu couple is that he cherishes his life enough and is cautious enough.

However, after getting off the boat, the figure in the distance raised one hand to block the wind and rain, and took out a strong flashlight with the other hand to flash a signal at a certain frequency.

Three long and one short, two short and one long, repeating the cycle.

And Hiruko confirmed the other party's identity from this, and his body, which made strange sounds due to tension, suddenly relaxed, and also made a gesture to his men on the lighthouse.

The figure soon saw the corresponding code flashing from the lighthouse and walked towards this side. Soon, Hiruko, who was standing under the lighthouse, saw a figure wearing a black raincoat passing through the dim rain curtain.

"Sorry, sorry."

While thinking, Hiruko saw the man scratching his head and apologizing sincerely: "I encountered some troubles, so I was late. I'm sorry to have kept you waiting."

Hearing the very polite and humble apology from the guy in front of him, Hiruko was a little confused about what kind of person he was.

In order to avoid being targeted by someone, this operation was strictly confidential.

So they did not use the official identity of Sunagakure, but contacted each other through the black market as individuals.

Generally speaking, when two parties who do not know each other's details are trading, the other party should show the pressure of a local snake, showing that their side is not easy to mess with, and reduce the possibility of big fish eating small fish or black eating black.

But the other party's direct apology opening remarks...

will only make oneself lose an advantageous position, put oneself in a weak position, and easily arouse the other party's greed.

"Hmm?" The man asked with some doubts, "Sir, why are you..."

"Where is the thing I want?" Before the other party finished speaking, Hiruko interrupted him directly and blocked him back in his mouth.

"Ah? You want to see something right away. Are merchants from the Wind Country so direct when doing business?"

The man looked a little stunned, but soon he smiled and said, "It's raining heavily today. No one will notice it, so don't worry so much."

"Yes, it's raining heavily."

Hiko nodded and repeated his words, his voice suddenly turned cold: "So, in such a heavy rain, I'm not here to talk nonsense with you."

"I give you the money you want, you give me the goods you want, and we leave after the transaction is completed. This is what we should do now, instead of letting me watch you get close to me!"

Facing Hiko's cold tone and the deterrent power of his tall body, the man subconsciously took a step back, as if he was frightened and a little timid.

"Okay, okay, the weather is bad today, everyone is very anxious, this is normal, please don't do it."

He raised his hand decisively, showing weakness again, and changed the subject: "But, can you let me see your money?"

Hearing this, Hiko looked at the Sand Ninja disguised as an ordinary person behind him, and tilted his head slightly.

Bang!

Several boxes were carried out of the lighthouse, hitting the ground with a muffled sound and a smell of oil.

Ordinary people may not be able to see what is in the box, but that man knows, so he subconsciously stepped forward with some excitement.

The Sand Ninjas standing next to the box suddenly tensed up, not knowing whether to step forward to stop him or just pick up their weapons to stop this guy.

"Let him check the goods. Anyway, I'm standing here and he can't take it away." Hiruko snorted coldly.

Hearing this, the Sand Ninjas who were originally blocking the front stepped aside, revealing the dark brown box behind.

"Thank you for your trust."

After the man thanked politely, he walked to the box, and suddenly there was a short knife in his hand, and then he slowly cut into the seal of the box.

Seeing this scene, Hiruko also became cautious unconsciously.

He didn't notice where the other party hid a weapon, and didn't even see how the other party suddenly took it out.

Squeak, snap.

The short knife was halfway inserted into the box, and the man pried it open to reveal the white banknotes inside.

"That's enough!"

Without waiting for him to take another look, Zhizi walked in front of him and repeated in an impatient tone: "Where is the thing I want?"

And with the dim light in the room in the lighthouse at this moment, he could also see the other party's plain and honest face.

If I remember correctly, the other party's name seems to be...

Meiyu?

His appearance matches the intelligence, but it's different from what the intelligence said. The other party doesn't seem to be an ordinary person.

But he is a herbal merchant after all, and he actually came down to trade in person, and it seems that there is no protection at all.

Can a businessman who has done such a big business really be so unwise?

Is he really a fool? Or is he pretending?

"Okay."

Meiyu showed a harmless and honest smile on her face, and used the flashlight in her hand to signal behind her.

Then he turned to look at Hiruko and smiled slightly: "I have contacted my companions on the ship. Soon, they will rush here with what you want."

Hiruko frowned, and then he realized it.

The seemingly honest drug dealer in front of him was not the real boss, but just came to the port to test the water in advance.

After seeing that he had the ability to pay, he decided to notify the real boss on the ship and continue the transaction?

"What a trouble." Although Hiruko was impatient, he could only wait.

After all, this batch of supplies is too important for the current Sand Village, even if it is him, he must not mess it up.

Even if he is impatient to kill the guy in front of him, he has to wait until the goods are in hand before taking action...

"Here it comes."

The voice of the drug dealer suddenly came from the front, and Hiruko subconsciously looked up.

The beam of light from the lighthouse above was cast down by the Sand Ninja, covering the originally black ground with paleness.

In the light, Zhizi saw the figure walking in the rain.

It was a very young boy. Even though his gentle temperament slightly concealed his immaturity, he was still immature.

Following behind him was an even more immature boy, carrying a knife on his back, which was almost as long as his height, and looked a little funny.

Seeing this, Zhizi looked fiercely at Meiyu, who was still honest in front of him. The anger that had been suppressed for a long time burst out in his heart at this moment, and he said in a cold tone: "Are you kidding me?"

Hearing this, Meiyu looked at him with some confusion, as if she didn't understand why he said that, and then walked up to the man and said respectfully: "Lord Yunchuan, no problem."

"Well, thank you for your hard work, Uncle Meiyu."

Yunchuan was wearing a black raincoat like this rainy night. As he nodded slightly, the raindrops that gathered on the tip of his forehead fell.

His gentle voice was indeed a little crisp, which was completely consistent with his young face. Hiruko once again confirmed that the other party was a little devil!

But the drug dealer was so respectful to this little devil, which made Hiruko tense his body with some vigilance, and the chakra refined in his body began to surge.

"Little devil, you..."

But Yunchuan seemed to ignore his intention, and his eyes swept directly over Hiruko in front of him and fell on the boxes behind him.

Reflecting the pair of dark blue eyes, the Sand Ninjas felt an inexplicable chill in their hearts and subconsciously avoided his sight.

But that chill seemed to come from the depths of their souls, making them seem to be nailed to the spot and unable to retreat.
