章節 7: CH7 Launching The Attack

BONUS CHAPTER - 1

[FOR THE GOAL OF 100 POWER STONES]

------------------

'A Naval Unit of over eight hundred people?'

Even though he was mentally prepared, when Shimizu Akihiro saw the detailed data on the system panel, he couldn't help but be amazed.

The 800 ordinary marines are secondary; the key is the 10 Ensigns, 2 Lieutenant Commanders, and Captain T Bone, a senior navy officer!

This force is not to be underestimated.

At least in Shimizu Akihiro's view, on this island where ninjas may not even exist, dealing with the Hoshino family's troubles now seemed more than manageable.

You should know that in the original work, Captain T Bone is a swordsman who can cut general hundred-meter-class warships like steaks!

"Rise." Shimizu Akihiro nodded in satisfaction.

"Yes." Captain T Bone stood up, nodded at Vergo, and stood aside.

Meanwhile, the samurai were already speechless at this scene.

Especially Kitano Ichiro, looking at the densely packed marines around, felt a deep shock.

He is different from other guardian samurai. Although they are all samurai, to some extent, he can be considered a retainer of the Shimizu family, surpassing these ordinary guardian samurai in both status and knowledge.

But precisely because of this, he understands even more what these people in front of Shimizu Akihiro represent.

Uniforms and weapons...

Navy Captain...

And the Navy Vice Admiral called Vergo by His Highness.

All this, without exception, tells Kitano Ichiro an undeniable fact!

These guys obviously come from an organization with a strict hierarchy!

These people in front of him, it's just the tip of the iceberg of this massive organization!

And his master, Shimizu Akihiro, seems to have a high position in this organization?

But if His Highness wields such powerful forces, why didn't he reveal it during the initial daimiyo election?

Only gradually revealed after being exiled from the Land of Water's power center?

Kitano Ichiro thought of a possibility, and his pupils suddenly contracted.

While Kitano Ichiro was immersed in unprecedented speculation.

On the other side, Shimizu Akihiro looked up at the darkening sky, brought up the system's mission panel.

"Quelling the internal chaos on Kadan Island..."

Looking at the newly released mission, Shimizu Akihiro pondered for a moment, looked in the direction of the port city, and a playful expression appeared on his face.

The internal chaos on Kadan Island should refer to the Hoshino family and him, right?

"I originally planned to play with you slowly, but since there's a reward, let's start early."

After muttering to himself for a few moments, Shimizu Akihiro suddenly said softly, "Captain T Bone."

"Yes!" T Bone stepped forward, standing straight.

"Now I'm going to give you the first task."

Shimizu Akihiro's eyes flickered strangely, looking at T Bone: "The target is Icewood City in the east. Lead your team just down, and I hope that before I arrive at Icewood City, the navy will completely take over the entire Hoshino family."

"Understood!"

Captain T Bone saluted loudly, then turned around, waved his hand, and shouted, "For justice, march!"

"For justice!"

Eight hundred marines responded in unison, then, led by Captain T Bone, they all ran toward the direction of Icewood City.

"Let's go too."

Shimizu Akihiro also sat into the carriage comfortably."

Night fell.

The pitch-black night sky is sparsely dotted, and the bright moonlight is scattered on the sea. Under the moonlight, unknown shadows swiftly move.

Icewood City.

Although the sky is dark, the Hoshino family, located in the center of the City, still has lights shining.

At this moment, in a courtyard of the Hoshino family.

Hoshino Taiga, the head of the Hoshino family, is receiving a group of mysterious guests.

"Is this all you've got?"

The speaker is a man with long white hair, which were tied up on both sides with white bands. There is purple eyeshadow around his eyes, two red dots in the middle of his forehead, wearing a white kimono, emitting a chilling aura.

At this moment, he looks at the sparse boxes in the courtyard, and his expression is somewhat displeased.

"No way, this is already our family's limit."

Hoshino Taiga, a middle-aged man in a gray kimono with a robust physique, glanced at the white-haired man and calmly said, "As the little devil from the Shimizu family has arrived. Soon, Kadan Island won't be under our control anymore, and what I can offer you may be even less by then."

"What do you want to say?" The white-haired man frowned, somewhat impatient.

"It's simple."

Hoshino Taiga's eyes flickered with a cold light. "If you want me to continue providing resources to your Kaguya clan, I hope you can help me get rid of the little devil from the Shimizu family."

"Are you threatening me?"

The white-haired man's face turned cold, and a strong murderous intent emanated from his body.

On the side, the other three similarly white-haired men also looked over with unfriendly gazes.

"Think whatever you want." Hoshino Taiga looked calmly at the four white-haired men.

After a while.

"I will convey your request to the clan head."

The white-haired man looked deeply at Hoshino Taiga, then turned his head and signaled to the other three with his eyes.

The other three immediately understood, each took out scrolls prepared from inside their kimonos, opened them, and spread them on the courtyard.

Then they formed a seal.

Bang!

Accompanied by white smoke, all the boxes disappeared into the scrolls.

Watching this scene, the white-haired man nodded in satisfaction, just about to say something.

Suddenly.

Bang!

Bang! Bang!

"Enemy attack!"

A series of intense gunshots accompanied by sharp cries suddenly erupted from outside.

------------------

Translator's Notes: So finally our MC has started the 1st battle between Marines and Shinobi clans and the 1st victim is the Kaguya Clan who are bloodthirsty and the Hoshino Family who are currently ruling the Kadan Island. The fight will showcase the difference between marines and Shinobis. This will also establish MC as someone who can't be easily trampled over so it's a very important battle.

Stay tuned and Have a nice day :)
