The Whole Truth! The Gelel Stone

Haido narrowed his eyes, carefully observing the patterns on Nirugu's body, a glint of light flashing in his eyes.

After a while, he laughed and said, "Oh my, so it's a mink kept by the caravan."

Just as he finished speaking, the voice of the communications officer rang out in the hall.

"Lord Haido, something terrible has happened!"

The fleet sent to the Land of Wind has been completely annihilated!

Shinki then realized that their current location seemed to be very close to the border of the Land of Wind.

Upon hearing the voice of the communications officer, Timothy, eager to establish his Land of Plenty, rushed to the front.

"I'll go check it out now!"

Seeing this, Naruto quickly followed behind. "Hey, even if you're leaving, at least leave the Ferret behind!"

Left with no other choice, Shinki and Sai had to follow.

However, the Land of Wind and the Land of Fire are allies, and Shinki is also curious about what happened there.

As Shenmu stepped out of the mechanical fortress and stood in front of the hall, Shinki turned back and took a deep look at Haido was smiling warmly.

I have a feeling this man is hiding something.

After watching Shinki and the others leave, Haido's smile faded.

He raised his hand and summoned one of his subordinates.

"Kazagai, could you please investigate that caravan?"

"Perhaps someone in that caravan knows what we've been looking for."

A dozen minutes later, on the beach at the border of the Land of Wind.

Because the distance wasn't far, Shinki and his group arrived in just a few minutes by riding their eagles.

Flying through the air, Shinki saw the wrecked mechanical ships lying on the beach.

Thick smoke was still billowing from the ship, indicating that an explosion had occurred recently.

The Shinki controlled the Goshawk to land.

The impatient Timothy rushed aboard the ship to check the situation.

The three from Shinki followed closely behind.

Walking inside the dark interior of the ship, Sai said, "A major battle has just broken out here."

"The question is, who were they fighting?" Shinki squinted.

Only Ninjas could rival this level of technology!

"Whoosh!"

Inside the dark ship, the sound of wood rubbing together suddenly filled the air!

Immediately afterwards, a wooden puppet charged straight at Timothy, who was at the very front.

"Ta-da!"

With two sharp sounds, Timothy raised his broken sword and hastily engaged in battle!

Shinki fixed his gaze on the wooden puppet that was attacking Timothy.

It just felt so familiar!

Half a second later, Shinki reacted and shouted, "Kankuro?!"

As expected, the puppet's attack stopped.

Kankuro's figure emerged from the darkness, his expression somewhat surprised. "Shinki, why are you here in the Land of Wind?"

Shinki waved his hand. "There's no time to explain. Can you tell me what happened on your end first?"

Kankuro looked at Timothy and said bitterly, "It's simple. The person piloting this ship launched a war against the Land of Wind for no reason."

"Several villages were reduced to ruins by their artillery barrage!"

"Besides..."

Before Kankuro could even finish speaking, the impulsive Little Naruto couldn't hold back any longer.

He stepped forward, grabbed Timothy's armor, and demanded, "Didn't you say you wanted to build a Land of Plenty without war?"

"What are you doing? Using force recklessly to start a war! You are the real culprits of this war!"

Timothy seemed unconcerned. "To achieve great ideals, sacrifices are needed."

Naruto punched Timothy in the face with a "bang!"

"What kind of Land of Plenty is this, where people wantonly harm others' lives!"

Sai, standing nearby, instinctively covered the spot on his face where Naruto had hit him.

"Is this guy always this impulsive?" Sai asked.

Shinki nodded after a brief moment of thought.

"It seems so."

Afterwards, the group captured Timothy.

Shinki directly used the Soul Search Technique to retrieve Timothy's memories.

He learned this from Timothy's memories.

The village where this child originally lived had been attacked by bandits.

Haido rescued him from the bandits and told him about his grand ambition to build Land of Plenty.

Afterwards, Timothy, who had suffered from the war, was brainwashed by Haido and became willing to do anything for the Land of Plenty.

Meanwhile, within this memory, Shinki discovered something extraordinary.

Haido called it: Gelel Stone.

This crystal is very magical; it can grant people all sorts of extraordinary powers.

The Chakra -like energy emanating from Timothy originates from the Gelel Crystal Stone implanted in his chest.

The reason Haido and Timothy traveled across the ocean to this place was to find the legendary Gelel Stone Vein.

After a brief inquiry, Shinki finally understood why he disliked Haido.

That guy is a complete liar!

Etc!

Shinki suddenly remembered the strange look Haido gave the Ferret!

Besides.

Grandpa Heyan once said that his ancestors discovered a stone containing magical power, and based on it, they established a country!

If the stone that Grandpa Heyan mentioned is indeed the Gelel Stone.

Then Haido's strange look at the Ferret can be explained.

Ferrets are pets kept by royalty; wherever they are, there are bound to be descendants of fallen kingdoms!

"Oh no! Old Master Heyan is in danger!"

Shinki suddenly shouted.

Naruto and Sai were completely bewildered. "How is that possible?"

Shinki: "There's no time to explain. We need to get to the caravan quickly, or Haido might have already attacked them!"

Thinking of this, Shinki once again summoned Goshawk, and quickly led Sai, Naruto, and Timothy to the caravan's location.

At the foot of a cliff not far from the valley, Shinki, riding Goshawk, finally spotted the caravan's wagons.

He spurred the Goshawk down and saw corpses strewn everywhere...

Upon seeing this, Naruto and Shinki's eyes turned bloodshot.

Shinki, unusually angry, pointed at Timothy's nose. "Why should others be sacrificed for the peace you desire?!"

After saying that, Shinki raised his hand...

"Calm!"

Naruto was standing nearby, quickly stopped him.

Although he also hated Timothy.

But if Shinki were to slap him like that, Timothy's entire head would probably be smashed off.

Timothy is still useful to keep.

Timothy's eyes were dim; he had lived with the caravan members for a time and had interacted with them.

He knew that this group of people were simple, kind, and hardworking.

They traveled to various countries as the seasons changed.

They wouldn't have died if they hadn't met him.

Shinki quickly regained his composure and calmed down.

The most important thing now is to stop Haido; we absolutely cannot let him get the Gelel Stone!

First, they needed to know where Haido and his party had gone.

So, Shinki and his party began to examine the injuries of the caravan members, hoping to find out Haido's whereabouts from them.

After a general examination, Shinki discovered that of the original thirty-odd people in the caravan, only six or seven had minor injuries and survived; the rest had died.

After searching around, Shinki discovered that Grandpa Heyan had disappeared without a trace.

Where's your grandfather?

Shinki asked Heyan's granddaughter, who had already awakened.

The girl was sobbing, and after hearing Shinki's question, she replied, "Grandpa was kidnapped by those bad guys to find a mineral vein..."

"Do you know where the mine is?" Shinki asked.

The girl wiped away a tear from the corner of her eye, shook her head, and said, "Only my grandfather knows in the entire clan."
