CH44 The Land Of Sea Is Poor!?

*The Name Of The Timid Twin Is Now YUKI Instead Of Mio And The Other One Is Now TSUKI Instead Of Saki*

------------------

"What thief? We just borrowed it. When we become Officers, we will pay you back."

The girl in front had a stubborn face, and when she heard everyone's teasing, she immediately shouted.

"You still want to be an Officer? There have never been female Officers, so don't think too much about it." (TN: Again This Is About Daimiyo Armies And Not About Shinobis)

Regarding the little girl's attitude, the adults around her didn't take it seriously at all. They just thought that this little girl's words were a bit ridiculous.

"Your Highness, these two little girls were left behind by foreigners who fled. They were originally taken in by an old woman and lived in the alley of the street outside the Lord's Mansion. But the last time you, um, the elderly woman did not survive the sudden burst of your Haki, and now the two of them have become orphans."

Kitano Ichiro has now returned to Shimizu Akihiro's side. The two little girls are now the only people living within a kilometer of the Lord's Mansion who have not moved away. Therefore, Kitano Ichiro still knows a little about the two of them. When he said the following, his expression began to change.

Not only him, but also Shimizu Akihiro's expressions were a little strange. He didn't expect that the last time he accidentally burst out his Conqueror's Haki, he also killed someone.

"Girls can also join the Naval Academy, but you two have to tell me what your names are first."

Looking at the two little girls, embarrassment flashed across Shimizu Akihiro's face. He nodded and asked softly. The majestic voice before had indeed become a lot gentler involuntarily.

"Really! Lord, is that true!"

The timid little girl in the back suddenly lit up, and the more stubborn one immediately asked excitedly.

The people around them were even more surprised and looked at Shimizu Akihiro in confusion, thinking that he was just joking because they have never heard of a woman becoming an Officer in the Daimiyo's army.

"What's your name?"

Shimizu Akihiro glanced at the two of them and asked again without explaining.

"Ah! My name is Tsuki, and this is my younger sister, her name is Yuki."

Hearing Shimizu Akihiro ask again, Tsuki immediately answered happily.

"No, no, sister, mother said I am the elder sister." Yuki, who had been timid next to her, heard Saki calling herself the elder sister, and immediately jumped out and retorted.

"Oh, you must've heard wrong. Besides, you are so cowardly. You don't look like the elder sister. It must be me."

"No, mother said that I am the elder sister, so she asked me to watch over you and not to let you make reckless decisions with your temper."

The two little girls seemed to have forgotten that there were thousands of people around, watching them, and they started arguing over who was the older sister.

"Hey, hey, hey, have you two finished arguing? Are you not planning to enter the Naval Academy?"

Hearing the two little kids chirping there, Shimizu Akihiro was also confused and immediately said in a deep voice. His voice made the originally amused people behind suddenly change their expressions, while Tsuki and Yuki also immediately silenced themselves.

"Bring these two back. T Bone, you and others will set up an Admission Centre in the central square. The task of recruiting students will be left to you."

Shimizu Akihiro rubbed his head, dropped an order and walked back into the carriage.

"Yes!"

T Bone immediately responded and followed Shimizu Akihiro's carriage into the city slowly. When the people saw that Shimizu Akihiro seemed really willing to recruit girls, they immediately became excited again. Returning to the Lord's Mansion, Shimizu Akihiro came to the training ground on the fifth floor of the Naval Base Building.

"Your Highness, this is the wealth and precious materials captured by T Bone in the Land of Sea. Please take a look at it.

In addition, the pacifista had some malfunctions during the battle with the Land of Sea. Maybe it needs someone to repair it."

Kitano Ichiro followed behind Shimizu Akihiro. He had just entered the fifth floor. Seeing that Shimizu Akihiro was about to start training again, he quickly took out a booklet.

"Pacifista malfunctioned?"

Shimizu Akihiro was stunned. That thing was a big killer, and it malfunctioned? "My Lord, we subordinates are incompetent. We met a Jonin of the Hozuki clan of Kirigakure in the Land of Sea. The pacifista killed him, but it also suffered a short-circuit."

Kitano Ichiro immediately knelt down and lowered his head to report. He didn't know what a short circuit meant, but T Bone asked him to say so, so he didn't hesitate. "That's it, I understand."

Shimizu Akihiro nodded, but although he was calm on the surface, he couldn't help but feel a little surging in his heart. Jonin, the top-level combat power in any village. The total number of jonin in all countries, even including special jounin, will not exceed three thousand. And here, a Jonin from a prestigious clan was actually killed by a single pacifista.

For Shimizu Akihiro, such a result is still acceptable, especially considering that the pacifista was not scrapped.

'It just so happened that the previous mission of the Land of Sea gave me a scientific research force, and now that Ichiro Kitano has brought the money, I should be able to build a Naval Science And Technology Center.'

[Host's current wealth is: 5,253,449,452 (Five Billion Two Hundred Fifty-three Million Four Hundred Forty-nine Thousand Four Hundred And Fifty-two) Ryo.]

"Only more than Five Billion?"

Shimizu Akihiro looked at the series of figures reported by the system, but he was a little disappointed. The treasury of the Land of Sea's Daimiyo and the major nobles combined only had about five times the wealth of the Hoshino family, which really disappointed him.

But when he thought about it, he felt relieved. As a vassal of the Land of Water, the Land of Sea must pay tribute to the Land of Water every year. This time, watching the coronation of the new Daimyo, Land of Sea's Daimiyo and Nobles must have taken away some treasures. He paid tribute to the new Daimiyo in this way.

'Let's build it first, System. Help me build a Naval Science And Technology Center, a Naval Information Reconnaissance Command Center, and Two Hundred Naval Defense Cannons.'
