Chapter 36 Assassination, Kakuzu Appears

Seeing Izuna's puzzled and speechless look, Tetsuya didn't explain much, just narrowed his eyes slightly and kept smiling.

"Izuna, it has been a long time since you were resurrected. Do you want to go back and see the current Uchiha clan, or visit Konoha Village established by your brother and the Senju family?"

"I?"

Hearing Tetsuya's words, Izuna's eyes dimmed a bit.

"Oh, forget it, not counting my family name, I have nothing to do with the current Uchiha clan. As for Konoha..."

Izuna took a deep breath.

"The place that betrayed my brother, I'm afraid I won't be able to help but destroy it."

Listening to Izuna's words, Tetsuya stayed silent. His slightly narrowed eyes made it even more difficult to guess what he was thinking.

As for Izuna destroying Konoha, it is well within the realm of possibility.

After being resurrected by Tetsuya, Izuna's body returned to its peak state and retained the capacity to grow.

He is a genius of the Uchiha clan with amazing comprehension, quickly mastering powerful Ninjutsus from Tetsuya.

Paired with the Mangekyō, if he were to fight, few people in Konoha could stop him.

Bulldozing Konoha might be exagerating abit, but crippling Konoha is absolutely fine.

After all, when Uchiha Madara wanted to destroy Konoha, it was Hashirama who repelled him.

Although Izuna is not Uchiha Madara, there is no second Hashirama in Konoha.

"I'll stay here and help you look after the Hotel. Although no one dares to cause trouble with Chiba Hotel's current reputation, but, as you often say, make sure to always prepare contingency plans and prepare for a rainy day."

"Okay, as long as you're happy."

"By the way, Tetsuya, when can I resurrect my brother?"

"Resurrect Uchiha Madara."

Tetsuya touched his chin.

"It's too early, don't worry."

It is indeed premature. After all, Uchiha Madara is not dead yet. How can he revive someone still living?

"Believe me, when the time comes, I will resurrect your brother."

"Well, I believe you."

"Then I'll go back and pack my things first. I should be back in a few days, Toodle doo~!"

Tetsuya waved his hand and turned to leave.

Izuna looked at Tetsuya's leaving back, thought for a long time, and slowly walked to his previous seat, picked up the fishing rod and started fishing.

After severing ties with the family, Izuna feels that life is pretty good now. Of course, life would be even better if his brother is here too.

Well, I have to help Tetsuya manage his business and resurrect his brother as soon as possible.

Back at the Chiba Hotel, Tetsuya symbolically packed some things and prepared to return to Konoha.

He can now be considered a wealthy tycoon, as the reputation of the Chiba Hotel is quite stellar in the Land of Fire.

As the wise men once said, Strength may not necesarilly bring wealth, but Wealth without strength definetely invites disaster.

"Boss, please."

Outside the door, the carriage driver, who had been waiting for a long time, made an invitation gesture.

Tetsuya stepped onto the car and sat in the carriage.

The sound of horse hooves sounded, and two white horses pulled the carriage slowly and trotted slowly exiting the capital of the Land of Fire.

Enjoy, since you have money, you must learn to enjoy.

Although with his current strength, he would indeed be able to return to Konoha very quickly, but running by himself would never be as comfortable as traveling by carriage.

"Sigh~! This extravagant life is really depraved."

Sitting on the soft couch in the car, snacking on exquisite pastries and drinking wine. Tetsuya was enjoying it happily, even though he had never experienced this luxury even in his previous life.

"Hmm?"

Putting down the wine bottle in his hand, Tetsuya's slightly squinted eyes opened, and his black pupils instantly turned red.

"Interesting, I've only been out for such a short time, yet they can't bear it anymore?"

He sensed a Chakra full of malice, and it was clear that someone was coming towards him.

Over the years, it's not like no one has had malicious thoughts towards me.

It's just a pity that when he was in the capital, Tetsuya made good friends with dignitaries, and nobles who deter anyone planning attack him in their territory.

This results in multiple bounty hunters trying their luck at Tetsuya's wealth, ambushing him outside the Capital's territory and away from any Noble's estate .

regretfully, these guys don't even have a chance to appear in front of Tetsuya. The moment they show malice, Izuna will promptly seperate their heads from their bodies.

This time, Izuna did not travel with Tetsuya. It had only been half a day since they left the capital, but someone couldn't hold back anymore.

"Whoosh~!"

A kunai penetrated the carriage and went straight to Tetsuya's head.

"Shua~!"

In the blink of an eye, Kunai flew out from the other side of the carriage and was nailed to a big tree.

"ah--!"

The carriage driver screamed in surprise and the horses neighed, frightened by the sudden attack.

"boss!"

The carriage driver exclaimed, but the next moment he calmed down, and a pair of scarlet pupils appeared in his eyes.

The next moment, the driver with dull eyes jumped out of the carriage and ran away.

Obviously, the ninja who came to attack Tetsuya had no interest in a carriage driver.

Tetsuya walked out of the carriage, jumped to the ground, and slapped the horse's butt, causing the carriage to run in the same direction as the fleeing driver.

"Okay, priorities... priorities. I bought the carriage with a lot of money. It would be a shame if it gets damaged."

As he spoke, Tetsuya stretched.

"Why, aren't you planning to come out yet?"

"Swish swish~!"

Before the words could be finished, several piercing broke through the air.

Six shurikens rushed straight to Tetsuya's throat with pin point accuracy.

Seeing this, Tetsuya calmly turned sideways, allowing the shuriken to fly past his neck without harming a single strand of hair.

"Aren't you going to come out yet? You can't take my head away with just these paltry tricks."

"The intelligence is flawed. Didn't it confirm that the owner of the Chiba Hotel is just an ordinary civilian, requiring 24/7 ninja protection around him which protected him from assassination? It seems that you are not that simple."

A figure appeared above the treetops. The man was wearing a black vest and a black mask. His head was tightly wrapped, with only a pair of green eyes exposed.

Obvious stitching marks can be seen on his arms, making it look like his hands were formed by a bunch of fragments sewn together.

He wears a metal forehead protector with the logo of Takigakure Village crossed with a line. Indicating that the person in front of him is a rebel ninja with zero affiliation.

With such a iconic appearance, Tetsuya recognized the other party's identity at a glance.

"Oh! I thought someone boring was coming to take my life, but I didn't expect it to be you! Mr. Kakuzu, the famous bounty hunter and traitor of Takigakure Village!"

Seeing Kakuzu Tetsuya was not afraid, but rather excited.

Why? Because he appreciates Kakuzu's talent.

What he appreciates is not his combat skills like the secret technique of monsterization, but his talent for managing money.

What do I need most? Isn't it money? Tetsuya looks at kakuzu the same way a lust filled guy looks at beautiful women without clothes or a car enthusiast looking at a limited edition super race car.
