An island in the southern sea of Kupu.
There are two main reasons why it does not have a name.
One is distance.

The radius of Arus is smaller than that of the earth, and the distance to the horizon is very short.
If the radius is 1200 kilometers and the eye height is 1.5 meters, the distance to the visible horizon is 1.9 kilometers. If the radius is 1,200 kilometers, the distance to the visible horizon is 1.9 kilometers.
Since there is no high land in Kupu and the high buildings are located far from the sea, the island is not visible at a distance of a little more than 10 kilometers.

Another reason, more important and more serious, is that the island is surrounded by something similar to an illusionary barrier that prevents people from seeing the island even if they get close to it.
This means that even if you go out to sea by boat, you will not be able to see the island.

In addition, the currents between the tip of the headland where the kuupu is located and the island are so fast that it is difficult for boats to approach the island, and thus the island has not been recognized by the locals.
However, if one observes the island from a high altitude like a <

If there is an unknown facility, we have to be cautious.
First of all, it is important to gather information about the facility.

...... What is this island?

The scenery was so desolate that one could not help but have such a feeling.
The ground near the coast was bare with craggy rocks. Grass and shrubs that are resistant to salt damage grow only in places.

The words "base" and "stronghold" are not suitable for this place.
As usual, let's explore this area in pairs. I'm Jyu. I'll go with Ku. Pair up ...... and make it 11. We'll work in pairs.

That's why the Shinobi Forces are heading inland. While conducting a survey, of course.
Still no sign of them.

Hmmm...
I'm beginning to wonder if this is really the base of the Sori Kyokai and the Ekitor.

But there is no doubt that there is a facility in the center of the city that looks like it.
The old man has confirmed it with his peepers.

Yes, I have. But it's not like we've been watching them 24 hours a day, for a week or so.

Well, there's only one reason I can think of.
I'll take that as a yes.
...... a warp gate, or a magic circle.

If they've been traveling back and forth, the question remains, what happened to them in the beginning?
As for that, did they cross the ocean to get there at first? Or maybe they were sent through an unknown warp gate. ......

That's possible.
But the important thing now is to find and confirm the base or facility, and get as much information about these people as we can that we can't get through our peepers.

So, the ten of us set out for the center of the city at a speed of about two kilometers per hour ...... since we were going twice as fast ...... as we were investigating. We were going to the center of the city at about two kilometers per hour while surveying twice as fast.

The island is less than 20 kilometers long, so the distance that the Shinobi troop had to traverse was less than 10 kilometers.
Thus, in less than five hours, the 10 shinobi reached the center of the island.

It was a heap of ground that could hardly be called a hill, about 40 meters above sea level.
The vegetation was mostly shrubs, and not a single tall tree grew there.

Is there a facility here, 30 meters below the ground?
That's what the "Mere Old Man" says.

The old man is sending us information on where to go.
Since we know how deep it is, I think it would be best to infiltrate by means of a transfer.
