>>5925330You have two days before your team sets out with the caravan to get your supplies in order and use the village resources to make sure your knowledge base and plans are as coherent and complete as possible. You also want to check on in team Yudai and Yuzuki in particular to verify that there isn’t any bad blood between you and that Yuzuki is fine after Naoki crushed her last night.
Speaking of last night, you feel slightly nauseous. You were expecting to be hungover like you’ve heard adults complain about in the past, but since you’re a fluid aficionado who drinks a lot of water and takes cold showers, you’re fine beyond some green in the gills.
You exit the Nakagawa inn feeling only slightly queasy and set out to handle your business.
First, supplies.
You head into town and use your formidable genin resources to buy some rations, enough for 9 days. You have reason to suspect that the caravan you’ll be escorting will be feeding you, but just in case you wind up treading off the beaten path you want to be prepared. You’ll split it between Naoki and Masami if they don’t bring their own for whatever reason. You get a survival kit as well in case you need to camp. You’ve been trained well enough to live off the land if you need to, but there’s no reason things can’t be easy and comfortable.
You consider buying water for a millisecond before your raw contempt for that idea causes you to nearly sneer at the merchant selling it. Water was everywhere, it was free, and if you had the mind to you could summon it yourself. That being said, summoning it yourself wasn’t always a good use of your time if you needed it, so you need to investigate a means of carrying some with you. You’re about to buy a large gourd to store it in until you realize that would both be heavy as fuck and Hotaru told you she was going to use her sealing jutsu to make you some kind of special container. You put that on hold until you talk to her.
