"But I'm still worried.
Here's what I'll do: I'll go back to Konoha first.
The Uzumaki clan's sealing techniques are the most powerful in the ninja world.
I'll go back and find you some methods to train in sealing techniques; it might help you in the future. Just do what you need to do, I'll find you!"
With that, Jiraiya hurriedly left.
Hyuga Ranmo wanted to tell him that he knew all the sealing techniques Minato Namikaze knew, but considering the vastness of the world and the possibility that the Uzumaki clan might possess other powerful sealing techniques, he didn't stop him.
Seeing their worry, he looked inward at his system.
In the mirror cloning, the cloning progress of the Four-Tails and Five-Tails was slow but steady.
The cloned Nine-Tails was currently in the development stage, already showing signs of body differentiation.
Previously, it was just a small ball like a steamed bun, but now it had grown small arms and legs, though its eyes remained tightly closed, like a sleeping baby.
Although it was still very small, the tailed beast chakra within it was overflowing continuously, which is why Fukasaku could detect it.
"Little guy, look how scared you've made Jiraiya!
Don't cause any trouble, or I won't be so polite!"
Just in case, Hyuga Ranmo reviewed all the Uzumaki clan's sealing techniques again before packing his bags and setting off once more.
The shoes Shizune made for him fit perfectly; he was almost reluctant to wear them.
But Shizune seemed to know his thoughts, as she threw away his old, worn-out shoes before leaving and placed the new ones by the door of his room.
Looking at the shoes on his feet, Hyuga Ranmo smiled.
Leaving the Land of Fire, Hyuga Lanmo arrived in the Land of Bears, then boarded a ship to the Land of Water…
However, to his surprise, upon arriving at the dock, there wasn't a single passenger ship in sight.
Everyone shook their heads upon hearing that they were going to the Land of Water, explaining that during this time of internal strife, ships to the Land of Water only departed once every ten days, and the last passenger ship had already left yesterday.
If Hyuga Lanmo wanted to board a ship, he would have to wait eight days.
Hyuga Lanmo was slightly troubled, and was just thinking about whether he should just fly there, when a burly man carrying a sack approached and asked, "Little guy?
What are you going to the Land of Water for?"
"I'm going to visit relatives!"
Hyuga Lanmo replied.
"Come, come with me.
Our merchant ship is heading to the Land of Water, but you're not allowed to run around or cause trouble along the way.
If you promise me that, I'll take you on board!" the man said.
"Last time I let a child on board, and he ran around causing trouble, so our captain fined me half a month's wages.
I don't want to be fined again."
The man finished speaking and sighed slightly.
Seeing this, Hinata Lanmo happily promised, "Uncle, don't worry, I definitely won't run around!"
"Alright, come with me!"
Saying this, the man, carrying a sack, stepped forward, took his hand, and led him towards the ship.
Once inside the warehouse, he put down the sack and settled Hinata Lanmo in: "Stay here.
I'll bring you food tonight.
Remember not to run around, and try not to be discovered by our captain.
I'll let you know when we reach the Land of Water!"
"Yes, yes…" Hinata Lanmo nodded heavily.
The man waved his hand in front of his eyes, then shook his head and said, "Poor child!"
After saying this, the man took a bag of pastries from his pocket, stuffed it into Hinata Lanmo's hand, and turned to go back to work.
Hinata
Ranmo was extremely embarrassed.
He didn't want people to misunderstand that he couldn't see, but even when his eyes were open during the day, they weren't focused.
So even if he could sense everything around him using his mirror perception, his eyes couldn't lie.
Helpless, he decided not to explain and let others think what they wanted.
The merchant ship sailed eastward, not far from the Land of Bears.
Hinata Ranmo felt extremely stifled in the cabin, but he had promised to stay put, and he had to keep his word.
Otherwise, suddenly going out now would be betraying the kind old man.
Just as he was thinking this, the old man appeared at the cabin door with a meal.
"Little friend, I've brought you food.
Look what the kitchen made this time! Minced meat and bok choy, pan-fried fish, and two apples for everyone.
It must taste good. Come and eat!"
The man said as he walked over.
Just then, an excited voice rang out, "Ha, Kiwana, I caught you again!
You brought homeless children onto the ship again, didn't you?
What do you say we do this time?"
After the voice, a fat man appeared at the cabin door, wearing a snow-white uniform, with a round face, small eyes, thick lips, and a top hat, a smug smile on his face.
"Kiwana, Kiwana, you really don't mind eating a hundred beans! How many times has this happened?
You pity those children, but who pities you?
Tell me, what do we do this time?"
"Captain, why are you shouting like that?
Don't scare the children!"
The man named Kiwana quickly put down the tray he was carrying, looked around for Hinata Ranmo, and found him behind the sack.
"Little friend, don't be afraid.
Our captain is all bark and no bite. It's alright, come and eat!"
Saying this, Kiwana reached out and took Hinata Ranmo's hand, leading him out.
Hinata Ranmo withdrew her finger. "Uncle, although my eyesight isn't very good, I can sense everything around me, so you don't need to take such good care of me!"
"Really?
You're amazing! Come on, come and eat!" With that, Kiwan brought over the food.
"Kiwan, don't take your wages this month.
Consider them this child's ticket.
You're so kind-hearted; you'll regret it if you bring pirates onto the ship one day.
Merchant ships like ours can't afford to be kind.
Have you forgotten what happened on other ships?
You'll ruin our entire ship sooner or later."
After saying that, the captain snorted coldly and swaggered out of the cabin.
Inside the cabin, Ji Wan looked at Hinata Lanmo for a long time before explaining, "Don't blame the captain.
He's always worried during voyages.
Last year, the Penguin encountered some refugees who had fallen overboard and took pity on them, rescuing them.
It turned out those people were pirates.
The whole ship, dozens of lives, and tens of thousands of kilograms of food, were all gone..."
Ji Wan clenched his fists tightly as he finished speaking.
Hearing this, Hinata Lanmo comforted him, "Uncle, don't worry, this time everything will go smoothly."
"Yeah, yeah, pirates have been rampant these past few years!
There's nothing we can do. Eat up, eat up.
The captain has noticed you this time, so you don't have to hide anymore.
Go out for a stroll if you want; you don't have to stay cooped up in this cabin all the time."
