"It seems like it's going to rain..." Ogata raised his head and found that dark clouds were gathering in the western sky. At the same time, the dark clouds were expanding and "invading" everywhere in the sky at an extremely fast speed.
Amachi, who had just destroyed Fujuro's bow, clapped his hands and stood up, looking towards the western sky with Ogata.
"It's true... and judging from the color of the dark clouds, it may rain a lot later. Let's find a shelter from the rain now. I don't want to wear wet clothes... Hmm
?Yishi, look quickly."
Omachi suddenly pointed to the east.
Ogata looked in the direction pointed by Amachi's finger.
In the distance in the east, a streak of orange smoke staggered from the ground toward the sky.
Looking at the orange smoke piercing the sky in the distance, Ogata frowned slightly.
"Hmm... this might be a trap." A-Machi used his hands as a canopy, placed it on his eyebrows, and looked at the orange smoke in the distance, "Specially designed to lure those idiots who are curious."
"There are always some idiots who are very curious and will fall for such low-level tricks. After luring these idiots who are very curious, kill these idiots and take away their supplies."
As soon as A-Machi finished speaking, Oubono responded softly:
"It may also be a signal from someone to contact his companions... In short, whether this is a trap or a signal to contact his companions, the person who dares to release such a conspicuous orange smoke in such a careless manner must be extremely courageous and has great confidence in his own skills.
A very confident person.”
"Should we go and take a look?" Amachi looked at Ogata.
"Why come here to see it? It's so far away. It's already starting to rain heavily by the time we get there. Let's find a place to hide from the rain first."
…
…
at the same time
Under this orange smoke
Mamiya sat next to the fire that was constantly smoking orange smoke, wiping the glasses lenses in his hands with a clean cloth.
Suddenly, Gong's fingers wiping the lenses paused.
He turned his gaze sideways and looked at the woods beside him.
In the woods next to Mamiya, a tall and sturdy man was walking straight towards Mamiya, carrying an Odachi sword.
Although Mamiya could not clearly see the appearance of this strong man because he was not wearing glasses, but even if he could not see clearly, Mamiya could still recognize the man who had fought alongside him for many years based on the vague outline.
companion.
"Yo! Mamiya!"
This strong man, who had completely emerged from the gloomy woods, shouted enthusiastically towards Mamiya.
"Long time no see!"
Mamiya put the cleaned glasses back on his face and responded in a half-joking tone:
"Long, it's been a long time since we last met. Is there more stubble on your face?"
"Don't call me that nickname!" Makimura said angrily, "You did it on purpose, right? You know I don't like this nickname, but you still talk about it before me!"
"How can I, Makimura Hede, be given the title of 'Dragon'?"
"The person who is qualified to bear the title of 'Dragon' is probably only Genichi!"
"Just kidding you." Mamiya shrugged, "You came much faster than I thought. I thought I had to wait until dark before you could come."
"I'm lucky." Makimura said, "My landing place is not far away."
"That's it..." Mamiya nodded slightly, "In that case, our landing locations are very close."
Mamiya pouted angrily towards the coast behind him:
"I landed here."
"Okay, we have logged in successfully. So what are we going to do now?"
Makimura said while yawning vigorously.
"Mamiya? I said something ugly before. When I learned that you and I would be in charge of Kii's trip, I made up my mind: anything that requires brains will be done by you. So I will do whatever you say.
What."
"Don't talk about 'lazy' so confidently..." Mamiya smiled helplessly, "Now let's find a place to shelter from the rain."
Mamiya raised his chin towards the western sky, and then continued:
"It's going to rain heavily? Find a place to take shelter from the rain first."
"After the rain stops, let's move deeper into the island to look for cannibals."
"While looking for cannibals? Also look for someone."
"A person?" Makimura raised an eyebrow, "Who?"
"A person I met by chance before I was sent to Kii."
An intriguing look appeared on Mamiya's face.
"He might be an important helper for us. And... I also have some questions to ask him."
"Oh? Is he strong?"
"Very strong." Mamiya replied without hesitation, "If I don't show some real skills, I won't be his opponent."
"Hoho~" Makimura muttered while stroking the stubble on his chin, "Mamiya, you have aroused my interest just by saying this. What's his name?"
"Let me give him a pass. After I find him, I will slowly introduce him to you."
…
…
Blah blah blah blah...
Raindrops poured down from the sky, hitting the rock walls, leaves, and grass, splashing up pieces of water mist. The clouds were so low that it made people breathless.
Layers of rain curtains blocked Ogata's sight, making it difficult for Ogata to see the scenery in the distance.
Ogata and Amachi's luck is quite good.
The moment before the heavy rain fell? I found a place to take shelter in time, a cave that was not too small.
This cave is quite spacious, more than enough for two people to live in it.
As soon as the two of them stepped into this cave, it started to rain heavily. Their actions were not untimely.
Pasha, pasha, pasha...
While Ogata was boredly looking at the rainy scene outside the cave, Omachi was sitting deep inside the cave, using her wakizashi to chip away at a tree trunk as thick as a baby's arm.
According to Atachi, she was making a drinking cup.
"Okay! It's done!"
The sound of "squeaking" fell, and A-Machi's energetic voice sounded.
Ogata followed the sound and turned around, just in time to see Omachi throwing two small wooden tubes at him.
"Here, Yishi. Come over with some rainwater. I'm already dying of thirst."
Ogata looked up and down at the two small wooden tubes in his hands.
Although it is a little rough, it is more than enough to hold water.
"What a skill you have..."
"Didn't I tell you before?" Ating smiled, "I know a lot of skills."
From the time he landed on this island until now, Ogata has not had a drop of water, and his mouth has long been dry.
After extending the two wooden tubes out of the hole and filling them with rainwater, Ogata walked slowly back to the depths of the cave and handed one of the wooden tubes filled with rainwater back to Omachi.
