A large group of ninjas were searching the ruins of the Shimura clan.
Only the foundations of the broken walls hidden under the ice can prove that this place was once a complex of buildings.
In a place with relatively few people, Shigeru and the others gathered here, waiting for news about the clan's search for supplies.
They had already taken the things out of the stone room. Except for the explosive seals and a piece of chakra metal, there was nothing else.
Now they just hope that the clan members can find something good through their extensive search.
Otherwise, it would be a great loss to eliminate a second-rate ninja clan and not gain any benefits.
"Oh~, it's my fault too. Why did I use the Kingdom of Ice and Snow for so long? All the supplies and other things on the ground were completely destroyed or buried under the ice." Hagoromo Shigeru sat on the ground, shaking his head with a pained look on his face.
A second-rate ninja clan, a ninja clan that may have existed for hundreds of years, but its wealth and collection were destroyed by itself. This wave of losses was simply enormous!
"Tsk tsk, look at these kunai fragments, it's a pity. Hey, how about we dig them up and take them back to melt them down again? Maybe we can make a lot of weapons again." Zetō squatted on the ground. His right hand touched the dense iron fragments frozen under the ice.
As for why Zetō is squatting instead of sitting like Shigeru.
There was five to six centimetres of ice on the ground and I was afraid my buttocks would freeze when I sat down.
Shigeru came up with an idea, "Tohō-san, aren't you a Jiton user? Hurry up and take out these iron pieces. We can cut some losses by bringing them back." Unexpectedly,
Tohō had no intention of taking action. "Young patriarch, these pieces of iron, if I take them all out, I will be exhausted, and even if I take them all out, we have to carry them back to be smelted again, which is quite uneconomical.
On the contrary, the Shimura clan ninjas must have collected a lot of money, as long as we can find these belongings, wouldn't it be better than digging for broken iron here?"
Shigeru rolled his eyes at him, "Finding the money isn't as easy as you say, in such a big place, the places are almost the same, how can we find it?"
Tohō chuckled, "It's up to the clan members who are working hard to search for the loot, young clan leader, you can't give up."
Shigeru thought for a moment, clapped his hands and stood up and said, "Alright, if we find the money before dawn, we won't pick up the remains, if we can't find it, I'll let you pick up the iron, Tohō-san." After saying that, Shigeru walked towards the clan members who were searching, after all, they need his help to find the loot.
Because now almost the entire Shimura clan has been frozen by their Hyōton, and the layer of ice is approximately three to four centimeters thick.
The thickest places are where the ice soldiers died the most, this ice accumulated over time and the ice layer in some places became more than 20 centimeters thick.
Therefore, when searching for loot, whenever clan members find a suspicious place, they will have to melt the ice, which can be said to be very troublesome.
As to why all the ice can't be lifted at once, the problem is more complicated to explain.
In short, Shigeru's current Hyōton is activated by the Advanced Yin Element, and this is a very mysterious element.
With only a small amount of chakra needed to produce a large amount of ice.
But if he wants to remove the ice, then he has to rely solely on Shigeru's chakra.
Based on the amount of chakra Shigeru currently possesses, he would have to lay down from exhaustion if he wanted to raise the ice on the entire Shimura clan.
"Hey, I wish you good luck."
Ishihara, who was standing next to him, smiled and patted Tohō on the shoulder.
Tohō's face was filled with sadness, "Why do I always have to do this kind of laborious work?"
Ishihara spread his hands. "It's not our fault that your Jiton is so practical."
Zetō then nodded: "Yes, yes, we trust you Tohō-San!"
Mizuki also smiled and nodded.
Hearing several people say this, Tohō felt even more helpless "Ah~, if I had known that I would be used as an iron collector, I would have awakened another Kekkei Genkai."
"…"
"…"
Have you awakened another Kekkei Genkai? Is this controllable? Do you know how many people in the clan are eager to awaken a Kekkei Genkai, any one?
Time passed slowly and just before dawn.
Rumble…
Another underground stone chamber was opened.
"Go in and take out the things inside," Shigeru helplessly ordered the clan members standing beside him.
This is the fourth stone chamber they have found.
Except for the first stone room he, Tohō, and the others found, which contained explosive seals and chakra metal, the other three were filled with food.
Therefore, Shigeru no longer had any hope for this newly discovered stone chamber.
However, sometimes surprises come just when people are about to give up.
"Young Patriarch! This is a lot of money!"
Suddenly, a burst of surprised cries came from beneath the stone chamber.
"That?"
Shigeru's eyes widened immediately. After reacting, he immediately ran over.
Seeing the young clan leader enter, several other clan members surrounding him quickly followed.
After hearing the movement here, the four people who were far away also immediately ran over.
Pop…
The man from the clan who arrived first opened the last box.
Shigeru looked up and saw a dozen wooden boxes over a meter tall.
One of the boxes contained gold and five boxes of dazzling silver. The remaining boxes were filled with neatly stacked copper coins.
"What a beauty!"
Looking at the dozen metal boxes symbolizing wealth in front of him, Shigeru's eyes couldn't help but start to shine.
Whether it was before or after his reincarnation, he had never seen so many precious metals. How much would they have cost in his previous life!
