Chapter 269 I found a connection with the Fatui for you

Nashi Beach.

This place is located between Yamo Island and Kannazuka.

In the ancient context of Inazuma's poetry, the word "mingzui" means "being gently caressed by the hand of God."

But unfortunately, over the past thousand years, this shallow beach has witnessed too many battles and bloodshed.

From the previous Demon War, to the later Dark Beast Tide, to the current war between the Shogunate and the Resistance.

This shallow beach has been dyed red with blood countless times.

Apart from the occasional falling ibis, the shallows are littered with traces of war such as broken flags and arrows, as well as the wreckage of abandoned ships such as torn sails and shattered decks.

Due to the war, pirates and ronin often roam here, and even the rare blood calamus blooms enchantingly...

However, because of this reason, this place has become one of Inazuma's special attractions.

Many people in the Inarūpa School of the Kyorin mentioned the wars and scenery here when writing historical essays on Inazuma.

Of course, these have nothing to do with Ibe Saburo.

At this moment, he was walking cautiously in the shallows, with a Fatui transport team following behind him.

They had just received supplies from Inazuma City and were preparing to transport them back to the Evil Eye Factory.

This time, Ibe Saburo also gained a lot of knowledge.

He knew that the shogunate was corrupt.

But no one expected that the Fatui's supplies were purchased directly from the Kanjo Bugyo.

Those boxes of crystallized bone marrow were strictly prohibited from circulation by the shogunate because they were one of the necessary materials for making jade steel.

At the beginning of the war, in order to increase the production of Tamagotsu, the shogunate invested in the Mikage furnace core and forced a large number of people from Tamagotsu and Yamojima to mine.

This later led to a large number of people fleeing, and among those who did not escape, a large number of them died.

As a result...the crystallized bone marrow that has been mined has actually been sold to the Fatui.

The people below are working hard, while the soldiers on the front line are still fighting desperately.

And the people above are actually making money?

Even if Ibe Saburo did not have a high opinion of Inazuma, even if Ibe Saburo was just a sea monster.

At this moment, he also felt that it was ten points ridiculous.

"Everyone, be careful. There are a lot of pirates and ronin here. Last time, we were ambushed here."

A Fatui captain beside Ibe Saburo spoke to the Fatui soldiers around him.

"Yes, Captain." The soldiers responded.

The captain of the Fatui looked at Ibe Saburo again and said, "Mr. Ibe, I heard that you are a samurai. Do you know anyone here?"

This statement actually contains malicious intent.

Ask a hereditary samurai if he knows about pirates and ronin.

In fact, it is questioning his background.

If it were in the past, Ibe Saburo would have directly initiated a duel.

But now, after experiencing Wang Que's attack, he also witnessed the power of the scattered soldiers.

Ibe Saburo has become much more low-key.

Faced with the verbal provocation, he remained calm and said calmly, "Captain, you're joking. The pirates and ronin here are just scum. I don't know them."

The captain of the Fatui smiled and said, "I see. Sorry, I've only been in Inazuma for a short time and I thought you samurai and wandering samurai were all the same."

He continues to provoke.

"The gap is quite large. First of all, inheritance is a problem. Although there are some regular samurai among the wandering samurai, most of them don't have any swordsmanship inheritance (Inazuma doesn't distinguish between sword and knife)."

"These people may have learned some moves from somewhere and become wandering warriors."

"A true warrior must undergo rigorous training."

As he spoke, Ibe Saburo looked at the other person calmly, with a hint of teasing in his tone: "Just like you, Captain, you must have gone through rigorous training and completed many difficult goals to become a qualified soldier."

After hearing this, the captain of the Fatui smiled. That's right, he had gone through a lot of hardships to become a qualified warrior.

But before he could laugh for long, he heard Ibe Saburo continue, "The gap between wandering warriors and samurai is probably the gap between the treasure-stealing group and you."

You compare me with the wandering warrior, so don't blame me for comparing you with the treasure-stealing group.

The captain of the Fatui's face darkened as he understood what Ibe Saburo meant.

However, his expression turned a little colder: "I see, thank you for your guidance, Mr. Jingbian."

Ibe Saburo waved his hand: "Nothing, the captain is going to work in Inazuma, so it's better to get to know Inazuma better to avoid making a fool of himself."

After these words were spoken, the captain of the Fatui turned even darker.

He turned around and shouted to the people behind him, "Speed ​​up and get to the abandoned wooden boat ahead. Let's rest for a while."

The reason why we rested in the dangerous shallow area was because this wooden boat was a little special.

That place has been occupied by a group of sea demons and many of their men.

Compared to other pirates, they have moved away from robbery and started collecting tolls.

As long as you pay the money, you can rest there.

They will ensure a certain level of safety.

This is a good resting place for the Fatui and some smugglers between Inazuma Island and Umi Island.

The team sped up a bit and rushed to the wooden boat area.

The captain of the Fatui greeted the sea ghosts here in a familiar manner and paid the money.

Then he took his men to a corner to rest.

The Hai Luan Gui who occupied this place even gave them some hot water, and their service attitude was very good.

Ibe Saburo also leaned aside to rest.

Suddenly, he felt his arm begin to feel slightly hot.

He was suddenly startled and knew that the adult was approaching and calling him.

He stood up and said to the captain of the Fatui beside him, "I'm going to go out to relieve myself and will be back soon."

The captain of the Fatui didn't seem to doubt him and nodded, "Stay away. If you get too close, you'll be fined."

Ibe Saburo nodded: "Okay."

Then he left the wooden boat and walked away, and the heat on his arms became more and more severe.

This means that the adult is getting closer.

Walking all the way to the coast, Ibe Saburo hid behind a rock.

That familiar voice rang in my ears.

"You're doing pretty well among the Fatui."

Wang Que's teasing words were heard, but no one appeared.

Jingbian Saburo quickly lowered his head: "It's all thanks to the power you gave me that they take me seriously."

"Pay attention, haha, not bad, not bad." Wang Que still had a smile in his tone.

Jingbian Saburo heaved a sigh of relief when he heard Wang Que's smile and asked, "Do you have any new tasks for me?"

"Well, I just came to see how you were doing. It seems you're doing well."

Wang Que chuckled, "As for the new mission?"

As he turned his gaze slightly, he saw the person following him from a distance. His smile widened. "After you return to the Evil Eye Factory, sneak out at night and come to the previous experimental area."

Jingbian Saburo was stunned for a moment, then hesitated: "Sir, the Fatui are guarding very closely, I may not be able to get out."

Wang Que showed a mysterious smile: "Don't worry, I have found a good connection, you will definitely be able to get out."

Does the Lord still have any connection with the fools?

Ibe Saburo was a little dazed and even couldn't react.

After a while, he lowered his head and said, "Yes, sir, I understand."

"Well, let's go back. If you delay any longer, people will get suspicious." Wang Que continued.

Ibe Saburo nodded, walked out from behind the reef, and then walked towards the wooden boat.

He was still wondering who Wang Que had found for him?

To be able to release him from the Evil Eye Factory, he must have some connections, right? Could it be one of the managers?

So, does Wang Que really have anything to do with it?

Of course, the connections he was looking for were those of the scattered soldiers.

The bait is about to enter the fish nest, and it is impossible for the fisherman Sanbing not to put the bait in.

Analyze the character of the skirmisher.

Arrogant, proud, and conceited.

Although the root of these personalities is the desire for recognition, friendship, family affection, etc.

But in essence, these personalities are now the outward manifestation of the scattered soldiers.

Therefore, the scattered soldiers would definitely secretly follow Ibe Saburo out of the Evil Eye Factory.

It's even possible that he, who thinks he's so powerful, won't even bring a helper with him.

By then, Wang Que will have prepared a big surprise for him.

After watching Ibe Saburo return to the wooden boat and several observers following him quietly, Wang Que smiled and turned to leave.

Calculating the time, he also had to go back and wait for the Eightfold Divine Son to come.

……

Ba Ling Island.

During a thunderstorm, a pink-haired fox wearing a red and white shrine maiden costume strolled in the wind and rain.

The thunderstorm had no effect on her at all.

When the wind and rain reached her, they disappeared without a trace.

"Tsk, he is indeed a demon god. Even after so many years of death, he is still so powerful."

"If one's will after death can influence the weather conditions of an area, how much more powerful must one be in life?"

Yae Shinko walked on the remains of the giant snake.

As the shrine maiden of Narukami, she doesn't come here very often.

However, she is quite knowledgeable about big snakes.

Even better than the average sea maiden.

That's why she sighed like that.

But soon, her gaze turned to the distant Ming Shen Island again.

"And you, who possess a power greater than His, what are you afraid of?"

"Do you really believe in the so-called 'constant' eternity?"

“Is it really possible to pursue eternity through immutability?”

The thought flashed through his mind, and the worry disappeared in an instant.

A cynical look appeared in the fox's eyes again.

"Well, let me see, where is the person who is looking for me?"

She had already reached the position of the head of the snake god, overlooking the entire area.

Then he quickly locked onto the Snake Bone Mine.
