Kanpū's group formed a team of three, and their shadow clones is the second team. The two teams marched forward from land and sea, but one of them would have gained nothing!
If the tracking direction of the first team is correct, then it's all right, but what if the tracking direction of the second team is the correct one?
At that time, since one of the two teams will be on land and the other will be in the sea, they will not be able to support them. After Orochimaru and Sasori take care of their shadow clones, and then escape into the sea, they will really be caught blind!
"This is no way." Facing Kanpū's doubts, Kakashi shrugged, feeling somewhat helpless.
Shisui said: "Okay, let's make a choice, we can't stay here anymore."
Kanpū raised his hand: "I think we should cross the Land of Tea with our main body, and let the second team track along the coastline."
Kakashi rolled his eyes and said with a snort: "No, the second team crosses the Land of Tea, and the first chased along the coastline!"
The two men stared at each other, and neither of them neither of them would give in.
At any rate, it's a gamble, Kanpū believes in his luck!
Because… the harder you work, the luckier you are. Kanpū asks himself that if he worked hard all the way, his luck will definitely be not bad!
Kakashi is the same. He believes in his luck and judgment, so he will never compromise!
Standing in the middle, Shisui's head hurts a lot. After all, no matter which side he chooses, he is still gambling, so does it make a difference where they go?
However, he didn't know why these two guys' brains are damaged, as no one is willing to give in!
Shisui wanted to throw one Genjutsu at each one of them just to end this matter.
...
The sky is high and the sea is broad.
A big ship is sailing fast along the coastline of the Land of Tea.
At the stern, Orochimaru, who is wearing a white kimono, is looking at the sea behind.
After a while, a white head drilled out of the wooden shipboard: "Orochimaru, just as you thought, Shisui and his group have already created shadow clones. One group goes ashore across the Land of Tea, and the other group travels by boat."
Orochimaru turned his head and asked: "Can you distinguish which one is the shadow clones?"
White Zetsu's clone shook his head and said: "Orochimaru, you think too highly of me. I'm just a clone that transmits information, how can I distinguish the shadow clone?"
Orochimaru squinted his golden vertical pupils, and looked at White Zetsu playfully. After seeing that this guy can move underground at super high speed without being noticed, he's thinking of cutting him up and study him.
"Orochimaru, Shisui and the others have made a choice, so it's your turn now. Are you going to stay on the boat or go ashore?" White Zetsu's clone asked excitedly.
"I won't choose either." Orochimaru smiled gloomily.
"What do you mean?" White Zetsu's clone was puzzled.
"Because Sasori is… unexpectedly useful." Orochimaru stuck out his tongue to lick the head of White Zetsu's clone.
White Zetsu's clone dodged his tongue in disgust, but Orochimaru's tongue is extremely flexible, and it instantly stretched to White Zetsu's cheek, and licks him fiercely!
"Pervert!" White Zetsu's clone groaned, and slid into the deck of the boat without a sound.
Orochimaru retracted his tongue, then bit off the tip of his tongue directly, and then sealed it in a Sealing Scroll.
'The cells of White Zetsu's clone… obtained!'
...
After White Zetsu clone got into the ship's deck, he went straight to the interior of the cabin.
In the empty cabin, the puppet Hiruko is lying on one side, and the red-haired Sasori is mending a strange humanoid puppet.
White Zetsu's clone leaned over to look at it. This puppet looks like the leader of Fuma Clan, Kagero, but her body has changed a lot, especially the joints of her hands and feet, as it's just like green bamboo. At first glance, it looks like it was made of cheap jars sewn together.
"Sasori, Orochimaru praised you just now, could it be because of this puppet? What is it for?" White Zetsu's clone asked with a smile.
"Don't bother me." Sasori's voice was crisp and cold, devoid of any emotion.
White Zetsu's clone was not angry, and started to lick him without saying anything else, "This Puppet is really exquisite, it is not an exaggeration even if it is called the greatest artwork in the Shinobi World, right, Sasori?"
When Sasori heard this, he suddenly became happy, but soon he became unhappy again, and coldly said, "This [uppet is indeed a work of art, but it is not worthy of being the greatest."
"It is still a rarely seen artwork."
White Zetsu's clone forcibly licked, and then immediately revealing his evil intentions, "Then, what is its function?"
Sasori said lightly: "You will know it soon."
White Zetsu's clone's face turned ugly when he heard this: 'I licked you for nothing!'
...
At the same time.
On the coastal coastline of the Land of Tea.
Kanpū stood on the deck with an uncomfortable expression.
He lost the previous disagreement with Kakashi.
The reason for his loss was that, at the crucial moment Shisui actually stood on Kakashi's side. According to the principle of the minority obeying the majority, Kanpū had no choice but to board of their pirate ship!
"Kanpū."
Shisui smiled and said, "You're not still angry, are you?"
Kanpū said with a grimace: "Are you kidding me? Everyone who knows me knows that I have a big heart like the sea. How can I be angry and hold grudges for this matter? Hmph!"
Shisui didn't know whether to laugh or cry, 'You're saying that this is not angry…'
"Kanpū, when we catch up with Orochimaru and Sasori, you will know how wise my decision is." Kakashi suddenly walked from the side of the boat, his eye is gleaming with confidence.
Kanpū turned around, looked at them with disappointment and said: "You guys are too naïve. You don't know how lucky the people who work hard are, hmph!"
Kakashi did not refute him, and just turned back to the cabin to rest.
As time passed, the six sailors sailed in shifts day and night, and in the early morning of the 3rd day, they finally caught up with the big boat chartered by Orochimaru and Sasori!
It's just…
Kakashi's face changed slightly as he saw the ship drifting slowly on the sea, and jumped off his ship suddenly, and galloped towards the other ship.
The sailors on the ship suddenly started shivering, speaking incoherently in fear.
"Ghost ship? Did they meet a ghost ship?!"
"Damn, why did we come here?"
"The ghost ship must not have gone far. At night, the ghost ship will demand our lives!!"
There are always many mysterious events happening on the sea, and legends like ghost ships will always circulate in every age. These sailors were obviously frightened and wanted to return home directly.
Fortunately, Shisui threw a Genjutsu at them, which stabilized their emotions in time.
Kanpū and Shisui then stepped on the sea too and rushed to the other ship.
After the two boarded the ship, they saw a lot of corpses lying on the deck, 'The death patterns were similar to those of the Fuma Clan. It should be done by Orochimaru and Sasori.'
At this moment, Kakashi walked out of the cabin, followed by five Ninken.
"Kakashi-senpai, did you find anything?" Shisui asked hurriedly.
Kakashi shook his head solemnly: "Everyone on board died, but my Ninken found the smell of Orochimaru and Sasori in the cabin, however…"
When the smell reaches the outside, it will naturally disappear.
After all, this is the sea, and the sea breeze is blowing all the time.
Of course, there is another possibility…
"Could it be that their shadow clones did it? If they dispersed after killing everyone, your Ninken would naturally not be able to track their smell." Kanpū said.
Kakashi crossed his arms and said to himself: "Impossible! These people have been dead for a day. If Orochimaru and Sasori really create shadow clone, then their purpose must be to confuse us, so why would they kill these people?"
Kanpū then thought about it, 'Indeed, instead of killing these sailors, it is better to let them continue sailing forward. One day's leading speed will at least delay us for another day.'
Kakashi continued: "Besides, there has been no news from our shadow clone, which means that they have not gained anything!"
Shisui was stunned: "In other words, we have completely lost the traces of Orochimaru and Sasori now?"
