Chapter 92 What a pity
Under the watchful eyes of Ni Kun and others.
The boat slowly sailed towards the tiger clam a hundred feet away. Yashamaru stood at the bow, staring at the giant clam, making preparations secretly.
When the boat was still twenty feet away from the giant clam.
Suddenly, a crystal clear line of water shot out from the giant clam's constantly opening and closing shell, shooting towards the boat like a sharp arrow.
Yashamaru quickly waved his hands, and several "black ropes" that were almost invisible to the naked eye in the dark night shot out and entangled the water arrows.
His secret black rope was indestructible and could even cut through a huge rock or fine steel. It was intended to cut the water arrow into pieces.
Unexpectedly, although the black rope accurately entangled the water arrow, it was like "drawing a knife to cut the water". Several black ropes penetrated the water arrow without any hindrance, and the water arrow was not affected at all.
It was neither shredded nor delayed at all, and still shot towards the boat like an arrow.
"not good!"
Yashamaru was startled and stepped on the bow of the boat with both feet. The boat sank slightly, but he soared into the sky.
boom!
A water arrow as thick as a chopstick penetrated into the hull from the bow, making a loud bang.
Wherever the slender water arrow passed, the small boat seemed to be hit head-on by some invisible force. Starting from the bow, the boat began to wrinkle, twist, and collapse. Every piece of the plank was blown into the finest wood fibers and sawdust.
Amidst the flying wood chips, the Japanese sailor rowing at the stern was about to jump off the boat. While he was in mid-air, before he touched the sea surface, the water arrow had already penetrated the stern. The invisible force that shattered the boat also passed by the sailor.
Then the sailor's body, like the boat, wrinkled, twisted, and collapsed, and with a bang, it exploded into foam all over the sky.
When the sailor's shattered flesh and blood fell into the sea, an undercurrent immediately picked up the flesh and blood and drifted towards the tiger clam.
Yashamaru dodged in time by leaping up and narrowly escaped.
Just as he was secretly rejoicing, three more crystal clear water lines shot out from the tiger clam's shell as it opened and closed, shooting towards Yashamaru.
These three water lines were arranged in vertical rows, completely blocking Yashamaru's falling trajectory.
"Yashamaru!"
Firefly on the big ship screamed, his face turned pale, his eyes widened, and his palms were full of cold sweat.
Yashamaru was in the air, with nowhere to gain support, but he remained calm in the face of danger.
When Yu Chongfei's momentum was about to end and he was about to fall, he suddenly waved his hand again, and the black rope sank into the sea. Then he pulled it with sudden force, as if the black rope was fixed to a solid object. He pulled his body and swept out diagonally, barely avoiding the three water lines.
Puff!
Yashamaru fell into the sea, and suddenly exerted force with his feet to step on the water. He immediately jumped out of the water above the waist and tried to step on the water to return to the ship.
But at this moment, an undercurrent suddenly came up like a tentacle, wrapped around his legs, and immediately pulled Yashamaru under the sea.
Gurgle gurgle…
A series of bubbles emerged from the sea, which were white foam at first, and soon turned into large amounts of blood foam.
Then the sea quickly calmed down and there was no more movement.
"Yashamaru!"
Yinghuo's eyes were wide open, his face was pale, his hands were clenched into fists, and his nails had pierced his palms.
Xia Xingbu and Hu Yi did not gloat over the misfortune, and their expressions were somewhat heavy.
"I never thought that with Yashamaru's ability, he couldn't even get close to the shell monster..."
Xia Xingbu muttered.
At this moment, Yinghuo suddenly pressed the side of the boat, jumped off the ship, fell into the sea with a splash, and swam quickly towards the tiger clam.
"What are you doing?" Hu Yi exclaimed.
"I want revenge for Yashamaru!"
Firefly said sternly, staring at Tiger Clam with eyes full of deep hatred.
"Come back quickly, you are committing suicide meaninglessly. As a ninja, even if you die, you must die meaningfully..."
Before Hu Yi finished her words, Yinghuo had already swam far away. Two small snakes, one black and one white, jumped out of the ninja uniform, coiled around her shoulders, staring at the tiger clam and spitting out their tongues.
"It's impossible for these two small snakes to poison that big monster to death..." Hu Yi murmured.
More than just being unable to be poisoned to death?
Firefly couldn't even get close to the tiger clam. When it was more than twenty feet away from the tiger clam, it was entangled by the underwater undercurrent like Yashamaru, and was pulled into the sea. After a string of blood foam gurgled out, there was no movement anymore.
Seeing Yashamaru and Hotaru die one after another, it can even be said that they died silently and without any achievement, even the two Koga ninjas, Kasumi Keibu and Hu Yi, who were sworn enemies of Iga and usually wished that all the Iga ninjas would die, could not help but feel a chill in their hearts at this moment.
Ni Kun couldn't help but shook his head regretfully.
Although from his point of view, no matter how many Japanese people died, it was not worth regretting, but ninjas were essentially low-status tools.
His rank and status are not even comparable to that of ordinary samurai.
At the daimyo's command, the ninja must go through fire and water and must not question the order or even have their own ideas. They must complete the task assigned by the daimyo at all costs.
The reason why the Koga and Iga clans had a blood feud for generations was that when they served different daimyo, they fought each other too many times and owed each other countless blood debts.
But once the ruler needs them to work together, they have to put aside their blood feud and serve under the same ruler.
If the ruler becomes displeased with them again and orders them to fight each other , even if the Koga and Iga tribes are willing to resolve the blood feud between the two tribes, they will still have to obey the order and fight each other to death.
A ninja with such a sad fate and such a lowly status would naturally have no concept of country or nation in his heart.
Therefore, one only needs to kill their current masters, intimidate them with force, and then give them enough benefits, or even improve their status, and it is very likely that they will be recruited for their own use and forced to do things.
Even if they were asked to kill the Japanese, there would be no problem at all.
Unfortunately, two of them were killed by tiger clams.
Fortunately, Yashamaru and Hotaru's deaths were not in vain.
At least I was able to test out some of the tiger clam's abilities.
"Master Zhu, Master Ni, Miss Qian, and Miss Shan."
At this time, Xia Xingbu looked at Ni Kun and the other three with a heavy face:
"Please take a small boat to the shore. Hu Yi will be with you and act as your guide to take you to Goguryeo. I will lead the sailors to ram the shell monster and distract it, buying you some time."
The shell monster can control the wind direction and water current. If you fail to distract the shell monster, even if you take a small boat, you will not be able to escape the control of the shell monster and the boat will be pulled back by the sea breeze and water current.
In order to complete the task, Xia Xingbu decided to sacrifice himself to help Ni Kun and others divert the attention of Bei Yao.
"Walk to Liaodong?" Ni Kun shook his head repeatedly:
"That's not very comfortable. Well, now that I've explored the shell monster's abilities, it's time to solve this problem.
"Let's weigh anchor and go meet the Shell Monster."
Xia Xingbu was shocked:
"No! The shell monster is very strong, and the sea is its home turf. We are no match for it. You are all honored guests, how can you put yourself in danger?"
Hu Yi also advised:
"Master Ni, this monster is too powerful, please don't act on your impulse."
Ni Kun shook his head and smiled:
"I'm not trying to be brave. I value my life very much. If I wasn't sure, why would I take my life as a joke?
"No need to waste time, just weigh anchor!"
Seeing that he was determined to do what he wanted, Xia Xingbu and Hu Yi had no choice but to order the ship to raise the anchor with trepidation.
After the anchor was raised, the ship was pushed by the current and slowly sailed towards the shell monster.
As the distance got closer, Hu Yi came to Ni Kun, half-blocked him, stared at the shell monster in front of him, and whispered:
"Mr. Ni, I'll go first and try to make a mobile phone for you..."
Ni Kun smiled, held her shoulders, and pulled her aside:
“That’s not necessary.”
As he spoke, the ship was only thirty feet away from the shell monster.
The maximum range of Ni Kun's flying sword has now reached over thirty feet.
Although the flying sword would lose its sensitivity at the extreme range, it would be difficult to hit a martial arts master who was agile and quick in dodging without burning a lot of energy and blood. However, the tiger clam was bigger than a boat, so it could be hit even with eyes closed, so it didn't matter whether the sword could be steered flexibly or not.
Without saying a word, Ni Kun swung his sleeves, and a bright yellow sword light with a streak of blood shot out and shot towards the shell monster.
Previously, Yashamaru had tested the tiger clam's water arrows, but the range was only a little over twenty feet. Ni Kun could completely rely on the range advantage and attack the tiger clam with his flying sword.
