Tonight's moon is particularly large and bright. Such moonlight shines like daylight in the fishing village with almost no shelter.

Zabuzhan, who was squatting on the roof of the Takahashi B\u0026B, saw that on the streets of the fishing village, people from Namanokura, like the Takahashi family, came out of their homes with lit candlesticks in their hands.

These people were wearing black cloaks and wandering the streets with candlesticks in their hands, but they didn't speak to each other, only the sound of waves beating against the rocks reached Zabuzhan's ears.

What is this doing?

I can't understand why these residents come out and walk around in the middle of the night when the moon is full and the tide rises to its highest tide.

These people seemed aimless, wandering around with candlesticks like headless chickens.

In order to get a closer look at what these people were doing, he jumped to the roof of a house in the fishing village without cutting a few ninja jumps, and lay on the roof to closely observe the villagers in the fishing village below.

Gradually, Zai Bu Zhan discovered that these people still had a unified activity route. Although they were staggering, they were gathering towards the old house at the entrance of the fishing village.

Zai Buzhan still has a deep impression on this ancient house. This is the site of the red-clothed priest with a deformed head.

The villagers gathered in front of the ancient house and finally made some noises.

It was a creepy whisper, an extremely heavy panting, and a barking like a wild animal, and no complete and clear human words were uttered.

These people from the Land of Waves gathered together, and their unique fishy stench multiplied. Even if they were lying on the roof, the smell would be as pungent as a stinky sock clogging a sewer.

Not long after, the red-clothed priest whom he saw during the day came out of the ancient house. He didn't hold a candlestick in his hands, but a statue.

The image of this statue is exactly the same as the one carved by Takahashi's family during the day, except that this statue is larger in size and more vivid and lifelike.

The moment he saw this statue, he couldn't even take his gaze away from the statue. The statue in his head was moving his obese body very vaguely.

Although it has the same shape as the statue carved by the Takahashi family, this statue seems to be endowed with magical powers, making it difficult to take your eyes off it.

The octopus tentacles on the chin of the alien body seemed to be alive, tightly entwined around the eyeballs that never cut off.

Fortunately, the willpower to become a ninja is even stronger, and he forcibly looks away before his mind is completely occupied by the image of this statue.

But even so, the skirt of his chest was already wet with cold sweat.

what is that?

Even the bloody corpses in the ninja graduation exam in the cannibalism did not make the young Zabuzhan feel scared.

After so many years of experience, even Buzhan who has reached Jonin has never encountered anything worthy of a particularly large emotional change.

But when he saw this statue just now, Zai Bu Zhan instinctively produced an emotion, the most primitive emotion of human beings.

That is fear!

This fear comes from the most primitive judgment deep in the heart, an intuitive judgment, a subconscious and unreasonable judgment.

And this judgment is that I should maintain awe and fear towards this statue!

this is not me!

The always rebellious and unruly Zunbuzhan didn't believe that his heart would make such a judgment in a moment just now, that he would be afraid of a statue?

What a ridiculous intuition.

Shaking his head, he temporarily let go of the fear just now, and saw that the villagers gathered in front of the ancient house had gone away under the leadership of the priest in red.

If you don't cut it, you will get up from the roof and follow far behind.

...

Led by the priest in red, the villagers of the fishing village came out in force,

Walk along the narrow road in the mountains.

The marching team made strange whimpering noises from time to time, but overall it was quiet and eerie.

Their steps were cumbersome and slow, and the rugged and narrow mountain road was definitely a tormenting journey for their crooked and sickly walking posture, but they still insisted on walking forward, heading towards a certain destination.

Zai Buzhan stood far away on a tree at the back of the team, keeping a certain distance to watch the candlelight slowly advancing in front of him.

With daytime experience, Zabuzhan knew that although these people from the Land of Waves looked slow, their perception was very keen. If the distance was too close, they might be discovered, so they pulled the distance by about 100 meters.

If you follow ordinary people at this distance, you may lose it, but it is absolutely impossible to lose this huge and slow-moving team that is still holding candlesticks in the dark.

That's right, in his heart, he no longer regards these people from the land of waves as ordinary people.

...

After an unknown amount of time, the sound of non-human footsteps finally stopped.

From a distance, he saw villagers from the fishing village pouring into a building that looked like a factory.

Jumping from the canopy that blocked the view to the ground, Zabuzhan looked up and saw the huge chimney that could be seen on the other side of the Land of Waves.

At this time, the chimney looks like a giant dragon rising into the sky under the moonlight.

Is this already the center of the Kingdom of Waves?

Zai Buzhan was a little surprised in his heart, walking at night and being led forward by the team, so he had no sense of distance and time.

Unknowingly, I have arrived at the Namokuni Center, which I plan to start investigating tomorrow.

Not far away, the Nami Country Palace was pitch black, but the factory-like building in front of him was brightly lit.

Without cutting a few strides, he jumped to the bow-shaped roof of the factory building, and saw the interior of the building through the skylight.

The front half of the building is a factory, and there is a huge furnace in the center, and the molten metal in the furnace is shining with golden light.

If it is the molten liquid of other metals, it will not shine with such a golden light, so the liquid inside can only be gold.

A furnace full of gold!

Thinking of the people from the Land of Waves described by the outside world as being generous and spending a gold coin every time, Zabuzhan immediately understood that this was an alchemy, and the gold coins used by the Land of Waves were all produced from here.

Was this alchemy built by the dried persimmon demon whale?

But where did he get so much gold?

Just looking at the gold in this refinery, the gold reserves of this wave country are probably more than any of the five major countries.

But where did all this gold come from?

Even if the Dried Persimmon Demon Whale killed the Namyo Daimyo and took away his wealth, it would be impossible to have so much gold.

Could it be true what the drunk old man said? Is there really any undersea creature that will offer him gold?

Gold is financial power, not only for the development of a country, but also for the existence of ninja organizations.

A ninja spends several times more money on ninja tools and detonating charms than the daily expenses of ordinary people, so the development of ninja organizations will require more financial resources.

The area of ​​the ocean in this world is much larger than the land area. If there is really a huge race of marine life that obeys him and obtains gold for him, wouldn't the dried persimmon demon whale be equivalent to controlling the financial resources of far more than the five major countries?
