Sitting down in front of the lake he clinched the black sword on his back. He then removed it and looked at the inscription. He then took a kunai and in scripted another phrase into it. after 5 minutes of in scripting he then read it. "Test will sore the sky of peace." he read out loud as he then slid it over the sheath before sliding it in hearing the clacking sound and still sat their.

Armand would eventually head down to the path and threw a small wooded area into an opening. The sight of the lake blasted him with reflected sunlight as soon as he stepped out with Hashao hopefully still behind him and keeping pace. Armand searched for the shipbuilder's and partially completed boat in the water and managed to see it on the east side of the lake.

As he approached onto the shore, he kicked around a bit of sand, figuring it'd be annoying to hull and work stuff through it. It was only then he noticed Testial sitting at the shore without his vest. He recognized the Jounin from the office. Armand could put two and two together. As he passed by, he'd talk to him briefly. "You'd best go back to Grass, you know. If you stay out of the walls unannounced for too long, you'll surely be killed~". He said this in his sing-song voice, not really aiming to threaten Testial. It didn't matter anyway, this job would pay more than capturing or killing him. Besides, it wasn't like he could prove one hundred percent that the vest belonged to him. Armand didn't feel like fighting much now, so the ship-rigging job would be a nice change of pace. On the flip side, ripping Testial apart would be fun...though not as lucrative as this job. Armand would continue to head to the small landing of builders and associates.

He'd wave to the builders. "Hello~! I'm Armand Tikoshi. And my partner behind me, Hashao, are the ones you hired. We'll be finishing up and sailing out with you~". The workers looked in awe of him, for whatever reason. Armand cocked an eyebrow, until the workers expressed surprise that their CEO came to work with them. Armand had zero idea of what they were talking about, but apparently it was a big deal. Never mind to that. He gestured to Hashao to pick up some tools and planks while Armand grabbed some ropes and canvas. "They just need a bit of the upper deck finished with that wood, so you can crush that out real quicklike and I'll take care of the rigging. Shouldn't be too hard~".

The mint haired shinobi would walk up the gangplank...or rather, cartwheel up the gangplank onto the deck, which was missing several gaps of wood. With a wave to the shipwrights working on it, Armand would throw himself up the main mast, climbing happily and roping the large bits of canvas to the different leverage points on the mast. His knotwork was shifty at best, but it would work and hold fairly well in rough weather. He had no idea of the sea conditions when they'd sail down the Kanabi to an outlet. After the main sails were done, he began working on the fore and aft masts, which were considerably harder given their need to be worked very quickly by the sailors drawing them up and down. It would need to be dealt with quickly, if things got stormy.

xxxxx Armand talked up a storm, that was for sure. They resumed a logical jog, between a slight run and a fast run as they advanced into the Moss Stone Lake, his eyes maneuvering around until spotting the opening to the town. Walking through, he looked around. The place had a few shops, and by the docks were several stores that gave out food and construction tools. Hashao stopped into one, got the tools they needed, and advanced to the broken down boat before him. "Yeah, I read the notes. I just don't see the point in ninja doing such a job." It had been a while, but he finally ended up replying to him. Hashao was starting to grow impatient when making the boat, so using a few hand signals, wood started to grow from the ground to fix most of the open cracks and some other problems.

Armand could only shrug at the comment from atop the high mast. "Well, at least they know it's getting done reliably..even if we don't really know much about building a boat~". This particular comment caused some of the shipwrights to get some grave looks on their fate. Armand wondered if they'd be allowed to keep the ship. The mint haired shinobi would yawn as he finished typing up the aft mast sail and letting the system of ropes raise and lower it.

With the great agility, he swung himself to the fore mast to finish the rigging up there. "We'll probably be ready to head out as soon as you've finished repairing the deck~". He'd sing out from his high perch as he drew a rope and tied it through the canvas rings. All the while, dock workers would be loading the cargo into the lower hull. It was actually...quite more than he had expected. And it was all filled with gold. The ship must've been co-sponsored by the daimyo, trying to aid Kusagakure in their attempt to gather more resource. Armand would soon finish the tying and swing down to the deck. He tacked up a map on a bit of the completed floor. They'd sail out of an entryway here, go under Kanabi bridge, out the Kanabi river, and then finally out to sea to meet everybody...then do it all in reverse.

The young boy would soon yawn and lean back against one of the masts he helped rig up. "Time to go soon...by the way, what's up with you? You always seem to serious~". Armand never could really grasp the seriousness of his job...of being a trained soldier, in its most basic sense. That's what they were, right? He never saw it that way. Armand believed himself to be a simple guy, trying to enjoy life and have fun with it, not really serving any village for the sake of serving it. Then again, shinobi villages often provided the most fun.

Looking up and hearing what Armand he turned back towards the lake. Before Armand had walked off he said. "I can't go back...not to true evil." he said as he stood up. his sheathed swords were clacking against each other as he walked off. ((Exit))

xxxxx Hashao was a little taken aback by the comment. Serious?... His current self was just dazed a little, maybe in a bit of pain. But serious was a new one. He enjoyed things like technical stuff, stats, and learning. Those things seemed to be serious to others, but I guess his tone could lighten up a little. To sound more.. friendly. He forgot to put on that act after leaving Kleine's. "Oh, I'm sorry." He laughed a little, shoulders relaxing. "It looks about finished..." He did a little more jutsu, and the last whole was covered up completely. He also used his Senju blood to also push the boat into the water, making it easy for them.

 

[thefire158]

Armand would whistle a high-pitched note to the crew getting into position. The helmsman and the captain started talking to each other and shouting orders to the crew, who took up positions around the boat and brought the sails up to their fully expanded positions. Armand let himself drop to the deck from the mast and grinned. "We're on a boat!~" This realization sunk into him and made him very excited. He had never really been sailing.

It was hopping and spinning around giddily. "I hope there's pirates. That'll be fun~" was all he could say, as the crew doubted their apparent "CEO" of their shipping company. With barely any time in between, they were sailing out of the exit and into the Kanabi River, aiming for the sea.

 

[thefire158]

Xantos woke up...for whatever reason, on the shore of the lake. For the life of him, he couldn't remember how he had gotten there. Mission gone wrong? Drunken party? It was out of his hands now. The good thing, at least, was that he had all his tools with him.

"Hello?" He spoke with a bit of volume, but wasn't too eager to start shouting. The Hyuugan glanced around the lake and saw things are fairly...quiet. Better start getting a bearing on the surroundings. At least, that was what he figured. The genin would leave the lakeside at a moment's notice, eager to find his way back home...or at least get some explanation.
