2/3 Of Today's Chapters. Another One Will Be Published Within Next Few Hours
------------------
"You, you really colluded with this Suna Ninja from the Land of Wind."
Seeing that the ninja escorts he brought were all wiped out in just a few breaths, and died tragically, Shiba Eiji shivered in fear, gritted his teeth, and pointed at Shimizu Akihiro.
At this moment, Crocodile turned into sand and rushed in front of Shiba Eiji.
Looking at Crocodile who suddenly came to him, Shiba Eiji was startled and quickly took two steps back.
"Uh-huh!"
The golden hook on Crocodile's left arm opened, and there was a bottle of transparent liquid inside. After taking it out, he looked at Shiba Eiji.
"What's this?!"
Shiba Eiji looked at the transparent body and instinctively felt conflicted and wanted to push it away, but the sand under his feet seemed to be conscious. Instead, it grabbed his legs and sent him to Crocodile.
In front of Crocodile, who was more than two meters tall, Shiba Eiji was like a child, his body trembling.
"Don't be nervous, it's just a chronic poison."
Crocodile said, easily pressing the venomous stinger directly against his throat and sending the venom into his mouth.
Facing the tall Crocodile, Shiba Eiji had no room for resistance.
"Uh! Ahem."
As soon as the venom entered his throat, the hairs all over Shiba Eiji's body immediately exploded. He felt as if his body was out of control. Pain seemed to be coming from the skin and blood vessels all over his body, like billions of ants biting crazily, covering every inch of his body.
In an instant, the pain made Shiba Eiji's whole body turn red, and his clothes were completely soaked.
"Ahem, ahem, help, help me, help me."
Shiba Eiji collapsed on the ground and looked at Crocodile, with a hint of hope in his fearful eyes.
Crocodile ignored Shiba Eiji's plea. About a minute passed, and when Shiba Eiji was about to faint, the pain suddenly disappeared.
"Am I dead?"
Shiba Eiji felt the physical pain suddenly disappear. He slowly opened his eyes and murmured. Deep regret flashed in the depths of his pupils, which was the worry about death.
"You're not dead yet. I just want you to experience the pain and fear of death. This thing will lurk in your body for about a year. Without an antidote, it will eventually flow to your brain and nerves. It will be a thousand times more painful than it is now."
Crocodile waved his hand, as if he had done something insignificant, but when it fell into Shiba Eiji's ears, he almost fainted again.
"Are you the devil?"
Looking at Crocodile, Shiba Eiji asked with a dull expression.
"As long as you are willing to follow His Highness, I can give you the antidote before the poison takes hold, but you'd better not try to treat it yourself. Every time you try, you will feel more pain than this time."
Crocodile chewed his cigarette and did not deny it. His grin was really like a devil in Shiba Eiji's eyes.
"Damn it, Your Highness."
Shiba Eiji's body trembled when he heard it. He couldn't even imagine the pain he had just suffered. Then he turned his attention to Shimizu Akihiro, and he placed all his hopes on Shimizu Akihiro.
"We will not break our promise. You can leave; I think you should know how to reply to the Daimiyo when you return."
Shimizu Akihiro's face was expressionless. In this case, he would not carry forward any traditional virtues of caring for the elderly, not to mention that Eiji was still a cunning old fox.
As Shimizu Akihiro's words fell, the quicksand that bound Shiba Eiji quickly dispersed,
'Well."
Hearing Shimizu Akihiro's words, Shiba Eiji sighed, turned around and left. At this moment, it was as if he was late at night, his back was a little lonely, and he disappeared into the road in front of the Lord's Mansion.
"Mr. Crocodile, is that poison really that magical?"
Next to him, Kitano Ichiro waited until Shiba Eiji left, and immediately asked in surprise.
Among the chronic poisons he knew, they only lasted for two months at most. Either the poison would take effect or it would slowly dissipate. No matter how long it took, the medicine would have to be continued. But Crocodile's transparent liquid actually lasted for a year?
"Nah, I lied to this old man. This potion can only last for a month, and it will not kill anyone. Within this month, this guy will definitely try to find a way to treat it. The poison will expand when stimulated and be rejected by the body, he will feel the pain several times again."
"After one time, this guy probably won't dare to try any treatment."
Crocodile's scheming was even more terrifying than it appeared on the surface. Hearing this, Kitano Ichiro felt extremely frightened. He even sympathized with those who would become enemies of Crocodile in the future.
"But Shiba Eiji is a confidant of the Daimyo of the Land of Water. Will he risk his life to report what happened today?"
After a pause, Kitano Ichiro continued to ask.
"It is true that this old guy is a confidant of the Daimyo, but he is not a loyal minister of the Land of Water. Now the Daimyo of the Land of Water is running out of time, but Eiji still has more time. He knows how to choose."
Shimizu Akihiro sorted out all the information he knew about Shiba Eiji, and finally came to this conclusion.
After hearing Shimizu Akihiro's words, everyone present was stunned and looked at Shimizu Akihiro in surprise. Crocodile and Vergo were fine. Kitano Ichiro started to admire him even more. Shimizu Akihiro was only eighteen or nineteen years old now. Being able to figure out and grasp a person's psychology in this way, and everything is planned out, Kitano Ichiro couldn't help but get even more excited.
After Shiba Eiji returned to the capital of the Land of Water, he immediately found the medical ninja sent to the Land of Water by Kirigakure Village and began to treat himself. As Crocodile said, the toxins that were stimulated instantly expanded, and the intense pain made Shiba Eiji give up in the face of death.
After finally resting for a day, he returned to find the Daimyo of the Land of Water.
