Two figures sat down on the roots of a big tree among the woods. Kakuzu listened to Tetsuya explaining about money-making plans.
"Listen to me, look at the entire ninja world, who is the richest? Is it those ninjas? Is it those ninja villages? None.
The really rich people are those high-ranking officials and famous Daimyo.
Isn't the Ninja Village rich? It's true that those ninjas are very good at fighting, but at critical moments, don't they have to rely on funds from the Daimyo Palace?"
Listening to Tetsuya's words, Kakuzu looked enlightened, and then nodded in approval from time to time.
"So, you can't make a fortune as a ninja. But you can do business, especially with those nobles."
Tetsuya also continued to paint cakes.
What is market monopoly, capital accumulation, money and power transactions, land enclosure production, financial control of the market, and capital monopoly the ninja world?
These things almost gave Kakuzu an o****m.
The excited Kakuzu immediately stood up and bowed respectfully towards Tetsuya.
"This humble slave has been wandering around blindly for half his life, running around for money, gloating that he is the best person in the world who knows how to earn money.
When I met my benefactor today, I realized that I am just a frog at the bottom of a well, sitting in a well and looking at the sky.
Compared with my benefactor, I am like the light of a firefly comparing itself to the bright moon in the sky. Listening to my benefactor's words, my admiration flows like the endless river.
In the future, I am willing to serve as a pawn in front of my benefactor, if you tell me to go east, i will never head west. "
Tetsuya was delighted to hear Kakuzu's admiration. He didn't expect that you, a black-faced b*****d, could actually flatter.
That's not true, even if the other person can't speak, he has lived for such a long time and met many people, so he will naturally be influenced by what he hears and sees.
"Oh, Kakuzu, it's meaningless for you to degrade yourself. You and I both have a common hobby or ideal. We are like-minded partners. You and I can earn money together."
"Then this Kakuzu will respectfully obey, not wasting his benefactor's grace"
The carrot and the stick, first beat this guy for a while, then take out something that the other person is interested in. This two-pronged approach will ensure that Kakuzu will remain loyal.
"Okay, we will be friends and partners from now on, so don't be too stiff."
Tetsuya patted his shoulder.
"In the battle just now, you lost four of your five hearts. Go and replenish your hearts first to regain your strength. After that, you can wait for me at the Chiba Hotel in the capital of the Country of Fire. Here you can take this."
As he spoke, Tetsuya took out a key from his pocket.
"Is this a key?"
Kakuzu was a little excited, could it be the key to the vault?
"This is the key to the door of the Chiba Hotel. It is also a token. If you take this to the Chiba Hotel, the people staying there will not make it difficult for you."
Hearing this, Kakuzu suddenly recalled the previous intelligence, which claimed that there was a powerful ninja protecting Chiba Tetsuya.
After a previous battle with Tetsuya, he thought that the information was false. There were no bodyguard ninjas, as he himself is the most powerful.
Now it seems that there is no problem with the intelligence, it was only due to such a ninja protecting him that no one can force Tetsuya to take action, this deludes the intelligence dealers to assume that Tetsuya is just an ordinary civilian protected by others.
If you think analyse it carefully, including Tetsuya, there will be at least two masters in charge. Two strong men with S-level strength and above, this background is extraordinary.
Coupled with what Tetsuya said to him before, Kakuzu was shocked.
This Chiba Tetsuya wants to do big things, Kakuzu needs money, Tetsuya needs experts. Aren't they a match made in heaven?
But even so, that doesn't stop Kakuzu from going back and gouging out the heart of the information dealer.
"Okay, then I will leave first. After I recover, I will go to the Chiba Hotel to find you boss."
"Good bye then."
He waved goodbye to Kakuzu.
Kakuzu disappeared into the woods in an instant.
"Ah, that's great. Kakuzu's strength rivaled masters even in an era when Munchkins were rampant, let alone now."
What's more, the most promising thing about Kakuzu is not his strength, but his ability to handle money.
Kakuzu likes money, he is also a good hand at making money, plus with my guidance, the skies the limit.
Thinking about it, the corners of Tetsuya's mouth couldn't help but curl up.
To put it bluntly, the ninja world is a feudal society, allowing Tetsuya to engage in Monopoly impossible to replicate in his previous life.
Hey hey hey...
Just as he was daydreaming, waves of Chakra rapidly approached.
Tetsuya reacted immediately.
"It seems that the ninjas of Konoha noticed the clash and came to investigate. Tsk, I don't know if they saw Susanoo.
But it doesn't matter, Izuna is open as a scapegoat. "
When he used Izuna's identity to save Tobirama, he never doubted that Tobirama failed to inform the Third Generation that Izuna was still alive.
While thinking of Izuna, Tetsuya quickly evacuated the scene.
Hehehe, just simply let Izuna bear this stigma.
Not long after Tetsuya left, several Konoha ninjas wearing animal masks appeared.
"It should be right here. It looks like someone did have a fight here."
The leader of the masked ninja couldn't help but feel frightened when he looked at the traces left by the battle in front of him.
This level of destruction is probably not something ordinary people can survive, and the golden giant they saw before...
"Inspect the scene and don't let go of any clues."
"yes!"
The masked ninjas began to survey the scene and investigate the clues left here.
Soon a piece of information was delivered to the desk in Konoha Hokage's office.
Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen read the information carefully, his brows gradually tightened.
"The golden giant, could it be Susanoo of the Uchiha clan..."
Thinking about it, Hiruzen Sarutobi took a puff of his pipe, filling the Hokage office with smoke.
Following to their teacher's teachings, the Uchiha clan has always been the target of caution. Whether they are performing tasks inside the village or outside, there will always be people monitoring the Uchiha clan.
He knew everything about every Uchiha in the village, so it couldn't be Konoha's Uchiha.
He recalled what his teacher Senju Tobirama said to him at the last moments.
The strong man of the Uchiha clan, the resurrected Uchiha Izuna, is now somewhere in the ninja world, and the opponent may come to invade Konoha at any time.
And now...
"Could it be that Uchiha Izuna is back? What should I do?"
He took another deep puff of the pipe, and exhaled smoke .
"Dang~!"
Suddenly there was a loud noise, and the door of Hokage's office was pushed open.
A one-eyed man walked in. This one-eyed man had a cold face and an obvious cross scar on his chin.
"Monkey, something happened outside the village. The Uchiha clan went out of the village without authorization and started fighting with ninjas from other villages. This behavior is undoubtedly treason to the village. We will punish this evil Uchiha clan!"
Hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen's expression changed.
I have just received information from Anbu. How did you, Shimura Danzo, know about it?
Are there any root people in Anbu?!
Good on you, Shimura Danzo, how scheming.
