That Body... Truly Strong

Seeing the nonchalant and sophisticated demeanor of the Sunglasses Man before her, and with Inoue Danza's assurance, Lady Kyoka had no choice but to accept reality.

If we kick her out now, she might get blacklisted by Konoha. Hopefully, nothing untoward will happen along the way.

Following Lady Kyoka to the dock, a medium-sized transport ship came into view.

Might Guy's eyes gleamed as he watched the workers carrying goods up and down the ship. He was already fantasizing about how magnificent his first sea voyage would be, completely forgetting about Shuichi's earlier warning.

A dozen minutes later, the fleet, having completed all preparations, officially anchored, raised its sails, and drifted southeast with the ocean current.

Wow, this scenery is so beautiful!

Anko stood at the bow of the boat, gazing into the distance. The sea was relatively calm, with a faint, fishy breeze occasionally blowing by. The sky was a clear, deep blue, a truly delightful sight.

Might Guy, standing nearby, was also very excited, jumping and hopping around in an open space to exercise, attracting frequent glances from many sailors.

Lady Kyoka's face darkened further upon seeing this, and she stormed over to Shuichi's side. "Kenshin, your two teammates have absolutely no sailing experience. Are you telling me that someone might get seasick?"

Shuichi chuckled sheepishly, "Well... I can't say for sure. It's definitely their first time on a boat, but I've traveled by sea to the Land of Snow before, so I'm sure I won't have any problems with that. I can handle any unexpected situations."

Lady Kyoka: "..."

The power of the waves began to show less than an hour after the ship set sail.

As the irregular swaying continued, Anko's face began to turn pale. The beautiful scenery of the blue sea and sky almost instantly lost its appeal, and waves of nausea surged up. She sat motionless on the deck.

As for Might Guy, this beast, he was in an even worse state. He had vomited twice in a row, and his whole body was limp, leaning against the wall for support. He had long since lost the energy to move.

"Haha, Kai, where did your enthusiasm go?" Shuichi sat on the edge of the boat, legs crossed, a smug smile playing on his lips behind his sunglasses. "I have some bad news for you: this voyage won't be stopping anywhere along the way. Be prepared!"

Might Guy's face had turned green to the point of being blue. He never imagined that he, who was born with a natural aversion to the sea, would have to endure such a miserable existence for more than a month. It was worse than going to hell.

"Senior Brother, hurry up and think of a solution!" Anko couldn't help but complain, "You said you'd bring me out to improve my strength, but now that the enemy is here, only you can fight, we're all almost unable to move."

Shuichi smiled slightly, took out two ropes, twirled them in her hands, threw them out, and quickly tied them around the waists of the two men. When they weren't paying attention, she gave a sharp tug, "Since you can't even sit still, then get running and exercise!"

"Ahhh..."

Anko and Might Guy were pulled out of the boat and flew up. Just as they were about to fall into the sea, they subconsciously gathered their chakra and brought it to their feet, making intimate contact with the sea surface in an instant.

"Tap tap!" With the guidance of Anko and Orochimaru from time Shuichi time, Anko's ninja skills are quite good. She had completed Water Walking training a long time ago, and she only had her ankles Seawater wet before she adjusted and successfully stood firm on the sea.

Might Guy's chakra control wasn't very good, and coupled with his lack of energy, he splashed into the water. The salty water made him choke, which immediately made him more alert. He struggled for a long time before he could barely stand up.

"Cough cough cough..."

"This is a special training program I've prepared for you: Sea Walking," Shuichi's voice came from above. "The ship isn't moving fast, so when you can't stand the rocking, running behind it will actually relieve the discomfort and also help you train your chakra control."

"You don't need to worry about running out of energy, I'll be watching over you."

"Anko, aren't you eager to learn the Body Flicker Technique? Adjusting your chakra output according to the waves is just the basics. If you can't even master this, then there's no point in talking about advanced Body Flicker Technique..."

Might Guy and Anko thought it made sense; they were no longer seasick now that they were standing on the sea. However, this training method was too torturous, and they would need to return to the ship to recover their strength. It seemed that the next month would be a painful memory.

After inspecting the cargo in the cabin, Lady Kyoka emerged to find two Konoha Ninja running onto the sea, their captain still tethered by a rope. She immediately flew into a rage and shouted:

"What are you doing? The number of pirates at sea has increased dramatically recently. If something goes wrong on this trip, I will definitely go to Konoha to complain!"

Shuichi calmly took out a wooden Water Gun: "Don't be in such a hurry. The ninjas of the Land of Water are really nothing special. They rely on their cruel and bloody style to intimidate ordinary people. Even if there are powerful experts, they will charge a high price."

"And we in Konoha are able to not only successfully complete our missions, but also bring joy to our employers."

As soon as he finished speaking, he filled the Water Gun with air and sprayed it at Might Guy and Anko, making them scramble and look quite disheveled. "Haha, this is advanced Water Dodge Training. If anyone gets hit too many times, they won't get dinner tonight!"

Then Shuichi handed Water Gun to Lady Kyoka, "How about it? There aren't many entertainment options at sea, why don't you try this game?"

Lady Kyoka was completely helpless. With an angry expression, she grabbed the Water Gun and shot downwards. After venting her anger, although she missed once, her emotions actually calmed down a lot.

Seeing Shuichi immediately pressed his advantage, "To prove my abilities, I've prepared a special service for you tonight, and it will be available for a whole month, which is..."

Lady Kyoka's expression changed instantly, a mixture of doubt and delighted anticipation. "Really?"

"Certainly!"

A few days later, Lady Kyoka's face was always beaming with joy, which amazed the sailors around her. Their boss was rarely so happy while sailing at sea. Could it be that the Konoha Ninja possessed some kind of magical power?

"Kenshin, your body is truly amazing! You're far superior to those Mist Ninja!" Kyoka said with a charming smile.

Shuichi's expression remained relaxed. "You have a good eye. Judging from this, you seem to know quite a bit about ninjas."

Hearing this, Kyoka flashed with a hint of resentment. "When I was a child, I also longed to become a ninja. After years of hard work, I could only refine a little chakra. Seeing your skills this time, I regret not persisting longer back then."

Shuichi didn't say anything to discourage her. Even those with good talent couldn't cultivate to her level of strength. Even if Jonin could continuously produce water, they couldn't maintain it for long without affecting their combat power.

Kyoka was so happy because Shuichi Water Release to bathe them every night.

The lack of fresh water is a major challenge for long voyages at sea. Being able to take a bath every day was originally a luxury, but now having this experience is simply amazing.

Seeing that Shuichi remained unfazed after using up so much chakra, she knew that the person recommended by Danza was indeed reliable. Kenshin's chakra reserves were astonishingly large, so with such a powerful figure on board, what was there to worry about?
