I sell sweets in Konoha

He still had that fake gentle smile on his face.

"Old man," Hyde said, "If you feel that your body is still strong enough, you can continue. Of course, if you choose to cooperate, we can still discuss it easily."

Rather than using force directly, Haide would rather choose a psychological offensive.

After all, psychological conquest is more reliable than military conquest.

But what I got was silence.

The old man seemed to realize that he could no longer pretend, but he didn't answer anything.He just told Hyde his attitude in silence.

"very good."

Hyde gave a false compliment and said, "I admire your courage very much. I hope your courage can continue like this."

After saying that, he walked out of the room.

"grown ups."

Camilla, who had been waiting outside for a long time, greeted respectfully.

"Pry open this old man's mouth in the shortest possible time." Hyde's smile disappeared instantly, and he just said very plainly and ruthlessly: "No matter what method you use!"

This old man must know!

And Hyde also felt a kind of pressure. The situation in this place was changing rapidly. No one was sure what would happen tomorrow!Now is the most vulnerable time for the fleet. As long as the Greer Stone Mine can be found earlier, the fleet can get rid of the current embarrassment.

time!

This is the most precious thing. If before, he would have been willing to talk to this old man about ideals, reality, and treatment in a false and sincere manner.

But now he doesn't want to spend money on this old man, he only needs this information!

Outside the flagship, in a dark corner that doesn't attract much attention.

Probably as Hyde expected, Timsi had already led the trio from the Fire Nation to hide near the flagship again.

how to say?

When the flagship, a large ship with drilling capabilities, drills, the dust will really fly up and earth-shattering.

After all, the drilling function of the flagship belt is not to carry a drilling machine that can act independently, but to be such a giant drilling machine in itself.

It's really incredible that with the size of a flagship, it doesn't make a big fuss.

"Shikamaru."

Naruto said a little impatiently: "Are we just watching here?"

They are here and lurking here.But this lurking was not pleasant at all. Being shaken by the movement and static brought out by this large machine made me feel uncomfortable.

"Wait a minute," Shikamaru said, "They have stopped."

Of course, Shikamaru was not in a hurry. Lord Godai's order was changed again, that is, he would just let them act according to the situation after confirming that they found the Greer Stone Mine.

There is a lot of knowledge involved in acting by ear.

On the surface, it seems that Godai-sama is planning to give up the Grayl Stone, but if Godai-sama really decides to give up the Grayl Stone, the best way is to withdraw them.

Now Godai-sama neither withdraws them nor gives them direct orders.

That means that Godai-sama intends to let go but does not intend to give it to the Kingdom of Wind. In this order, destroying the Grayl Stone is the first choice.Sealing the Grayl Stone is the second option, and handing it over to the Kingdom of Wind is the last option.

But no matter which one they choose, they have to find the specific location of the Greer Stone Mine first!

"us..."

"Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!"

At this moment, a sharp female voice suddenly interrupted Shikamaru and screamed: "There are rats!!!!"

mouse...

Putting this aside, there is only one person who can make a sharp female voice.

Sakura!

"Ah..." Shikamaru sighed and said, "Um...Sakura, isn't it normal to find mice here?"

Yup!

What is this place?

This is an underground cave!

The presence of rats, bats, and even some other small cave-dwelling creatures is the most normal thing.Since you plan to follow me, shouldn't you be well prepared mentally?

What are you screaming for? !

Although judging from the current situation, her scream is unlikely to expose them.

But it's really a bit scary to do it all of a sudden.

"Yes! There is a mouse!" Sakura said, a little frightened, "It's such a big one!"

"That big?"

When Shikamaru heard what Sakura said, he took it a little seriously and said, "How big is it?!"

"I didn't see it clearly." Sakura shook her head and said, "It's just a big one!"

Sakura said while gesturing: "A big mouse with red eyes and a big tail just passed in front of me!"

After hearing what Sakura said, Shikamaru immediately became alert.

This...

This doesn't seem like an ordinary mouse.

Shikamaru pulled out his kunai and said, "Where is it?! The place where the big rat last disappeared."

Seeing Shikamaru pull out his kunai, Sakura seemed to have just remembered something and also pulled out her kunai and became alert.As for Naruto, although he hadn't noticed anything yet, he saw that both Sakura and Shikamaru were alert, so he became alert as well.

All three of them were on guard. Only Timsey, an outsider, could not understand the behavior of these three people at all.

"What are you doing?" Timsey asked a little strangely: "Isn't it just a mouse?"

"Mouse?" Shikamaru said: "That's not a mouse. There is a special creature in our ninja continent called a 'psychic beast.' IQ and wisdom.”

"According to Sakura's description, that mouse doesn't look like the mouse that appears here."

Although ninjas don't learn much about biology, they at least understand some things.Creatures like this one that appear in underground caves that are dark all year round are either hairless or predominantly gray.

It is almost impossible for that kind of white creature to appear here.

Unless it’s a psychic beast!

The appearance of the psychic beast also means that there are other ninja troops, and at the same time, this ninja troop may have some hostility towards them.

Timsey didn't quite understand, but he still drew his sword and became vigilant.

Psychic beast or something...

real...

what is that?

Before Timsi thought too much, he saw a strange creature appearing not far from him.

It has red eyes, white fur, and brown patterns on its body.

Um...

that...

Is that the legendary psychic beast?

Big mouse?

Although I don’t know, I always feel like...

Doesn't it seem like a psychic beast?

4 White-haired Mouse

Is this the psychic beast that the ninja said?

Have an IQ that is no less than that of a human being and a wisdom that is no less than that of a human being?

Why can't you see it?

Timsey frowned and looked at the big rat that appeared in front of him. Well...it didn't look like a rat.This shouldn't be a mouse, right?Rats are rodents, and although Timsi doesn't know what a rodent is, it's obvious that this creature that looks like a rodent doesn't have the unique incisors of a rat, nor does it have the cunning look of a rat.

Instead it looks more like...

"Weasel?"

right!It looks very much like a weasel or a weasel.

It is larger than a mouse, and the creature's coat color does not look like a mouse.The mouse is gray-black, and this thing is off-white with brown patterns.

Although he couldn't figure out what a psychic beast was, he was certain that this creature was raised by humans.

He is not as wary of humans as wild creatures, and there seems to be some trust in humans in his alert eyes.

"Appeared!"

Sakura was the first to notice this creature. She stopped in front of Timsey and charged up her left hand to fight it.

"Slow! Wait!" Timsey didn't know what was going on, but he subconsciously stopped Sakura and said, "Wait a minute! I feel like it... doesn't seem to be hostile."

Don't know, but I can feel it.

If you observe carefully, Timsey seems to feel that he can detect something. Not only is this creature not hostile, it even seems to be asking for help.

"what happened?"

Naruto also noticed the strange creature and said, "That! That's a psychic beast!"

"No!" Timsey said not too convinced but still relatively certain: "Although I don't know what your ninja's psychic beast looks like, but I feel that it is not a psychic beast."

When Timsi said this, Naruto also looked at it carefully and said with uncertainty: "It seems..."

"It certainly doesn't seem to be the case."

There is a big difference between psychic beasts and ordinary animals. There are many psychic beasts that can speak human language and have IQ and wisdom that are no less than human beings.At the same time, there is another obvious difference between psychic beasts and ordinary beasts, and that is that psychic beasts generally wear clothes or have some kind of mark on their body.

And this animal doesn't seem to be very smart. It can only be said that it seems to be humane, and it cannot be said to have intelligence that is not inferior to humans.

At the same time, this animal has no clothing or any markings on its body.

So this...

This shouldn't be a psychic beast.

Naruto was not sure what he said, and Sakura and Shikamaru didn't dare to relax. Judging from the situation, even if it wasn't a psychic beast, it wasn't an ordinary beast. It was probably domesticated.

It is wrong to think that a domesticated animal appears at this point in time!

"Timsey." Shikamaru asked warily, "Have any animals been tamed on the fleet?"

"Tame an animal?" Timsey said as if he didn't understand: "As a pet? Cats may be kept on other ships, but not on the flagship because Hyde hates animals."

"But..." Timsey thought for a moment and said, "If it is used as a reserve of food, I will still keep it a little."

"No, I mean working animals used for surveillance and search." Shikamaru asked.

"Is that the case?" Timsey shook his head and said, "There is no such animal on the ship."

"Then it's not from the boat." Shikamaru turned around and glanced at the boat behind him and said, "Could it be someone else? If it's not a psychic beast, who could it be."

I don’t know, but I can’t let my guard down because of that.

Timsey kept looking at the strange creature for a while, and a bold idea suddenly came to his mind.He bypassed Sakura and Naruto and planned to walk forward.

"Timsey!" Naruto grabbed Timsey's shoulders and said, "You..."

"Nothing." Timsi said sincerely: "Naruto-kun, I don't think it was tamed by the enemy. Although I don't know why, I think maybe I can get in touch with it, and it seems to be asking for something from me."

"Are you sure?" Naruto was unwilling to let Timsy risk himself.

"Believe me." Timsi said trustingly: "And I am a knight, not a little girl who needs protection."

Timsey is confident and trusts his own judgment and intuition.And he also believed in his own ability. Even if he couldn't defeat those ninjas, he could still do it by just escaping and protecting himself.

"And isn't it yours?" Timsi said: "I believe you won't watch me fall into danger."
