"Mr. Hideyuki." A cloaked figure would step off of the strange vessel and onto the water's surface slowly approaching where Hideyuki stood on the docks. The pale figure, followed by a massive serpent, emerged onto the dock proper. Provoked by the sudden arrival of the two many of the Demon Blade pirates would draw their weapons only to be met with the vicious hissing of the magnificent beast that could easily swallow mere men like them. Hideyuki knew better though the two before him were mere facsimiles of what their appearance projected. Two simple puppets controlled by a ninja that could barely even call himself a chunin.
"Yasubei. There's no formality between friends" The pirate would spread his arms wide as he greeted the chunin. "It's been so very long. Business just hasn't been the same without you, but, if you wouldn't mind, I most go back to tending to it. These crates won't load themselves."
"Of course not." Yasubei would pull back the hood of his cloak. "That's why you hire these fine men. Since that's all they're doing, I'm sure they are competent enough to do such a trivial task without your guidance."
"Business hasn't been as... profitable since you've not been making your visits. I need to manage them, so they can, um, maximize their efficiency." The Demon Blade Pirate would, with a simple tap on his blade send a pulse of chakra out to initiate a genjutsu. A secret pulse within Yasubei would react with it, like destructive interference on sound waves. Maintaining his constant neutral face all the while.
"You may be able to fool the people of this village and your crew mates into moving drugs and people, Demon Blade, but my eyes see you as you are."
"A idiot for trusting you?"
"A smuggler and a criminal. There was a time when I could ignore your business because we were partners."
"You disappeared, and besides who are you to talk."
"You knew what you were supposed to do."
"The information you were looking for what it would cost me in time and men alone. I couldn't afford to hunt that down for a ghost." The slippery man would attempt to deflect. "I found something though. The ninja of Iwa are building things. It's not quite what you were looking for, but I'm sure it's something you might find interesting."
"No. I don't think it will." Yasubei's albino head would turn towards the ship and point at it. "I think that I will see what the cost of our partnership was. What Iwa could give you that you'd so readily throw me out. Show me."
An hour would pass as Yasubei and Hideyuki went through the contents of the ship. For safe measures Hideyuki sent his crew away as they went through the inventory and each of the boxes. Yasu was surprised to find that for the most part everything was exactly as on the ledger: food, soldier pills, medicinal supplies, weapons, and armors. These were all technically things the Demon Blades were licensed to sell and import in most countries. Hideyuki explained that something big was happening in Iwa that the head honchos were keeping under wraps. To Yasu these looked like the ingredients for a large scale invasion, but he quickly dismissed that since Iwa wasn't even one of the big players anymore.
Then they got to the prize jewel. Hideyuki took Yasubei through a wall, or what looked like a wall. "I guess your eyes don't see everything, do they?" The smuggler said pointedly, quite pleased with himself. Yasu was too distracted though as before him there was a girl chained, bound, and unconscious. Maintaining the appearance of perfect calm, the ninja walked to the back wall the malnourished and emaciated. He checked her, noting she was drugged, but the only thing she had besides too old clothes was a simple necklace with a blue gem in the shape of a twisted cylinder dangling from it. "The Aqua Spinel. It is said to have been made by Nine Hundred and Ninety Nine monks who lived offshore of Kiri. They sealed away their souls in this gem. Apparently few generations ago, the last of the monks, a Kiri-nin, stole it and ran away bonded with it using a forbidden technique. According to sources in Iwa this is his great-granddaughter, it's current host."
Yasubei would slowly reach towards it before a sudden burst of acidic, purple chakra would lash out at him causing him to retract his hand. "Oh, and apparently the monks don't tango well with others. That's all I know. I'm not sure where you've been this last year Yasubei, but it would be great to be back in business with you." The merchant-nin would remain silent. He normally couldn't since chakra amounts, but the amount of chakra that thing radiated while its host was this thoroughly drugged was massive. He couldn't even begin to fathom what Iwa might have wanted from this.
"Of course, Hideyuki."
