In a dark, smelly secret room.
A bald middle-aged corpse wearing a Kirigakure rebel ninja forehead protector was pushed into the corpse locker.
"Ogawara, the A-level rebel ninja of Kirigakure Village, identity confirmation completed, bounty of 10.5 million yuan." He locked the cabinet, took out a stack of banknotes from his arms, counted them, took out the corresponding value and handed it to the man beside him.
The tall man with the mask covering half of his face took it, counted it correctly, and turned to leave. The bald middle-aged man next to him said: "Wait a minute, there is a latest super high reward, are you interested?"
"Super high amount?" Kakudu turned to look.
This is a money exchange, a secret organization in the ninja world. Behind it is the secret support of the five major villages and some nobles. It specially releases certain bounties for rebellious ninjas or special characters in each village, attracting a famous bounty hunter to do it. Dirty work.
Kakuzu is a frequent visitor here, and he knows and is familiar with everything here. He knows that it is not common to call a super high reward.
The owner of the money exchange nodded, knowing that no one else would hear, but he still lowered his voice and said to everyone: "Have you heard about the resurrection of the first Daimyo of Star Kingdom from thousands of years ago?"
"Those rumors?" Kakuzu asked.
"No, this is not a rumor. Not long ago, the five major countries officially announced the news of his resurrection. The ninja world... may be unified again!"
Kakuzu's lifeless eyes fluctuated, and he looked a little surprised. He looked at the money exchange boss and understood what he was going to say.
"Is it really resurrected...Humph, it seems you don't want the ninja world to be unified."
After saying this, he turned around and left. The bald middle-aged man was startled and shouted quickly: "The reward is 500 million taels!"
Kakuzu's steps stagnated and he was silent for two seconds before shaking his head: "There is no hope of completing the reward, even if it is tens of billions of taels, it is meaningless."
"Maybe there can be tens of billions!" the manager of the gold exchange office said quickly: "The current 500 million is just the hidden wealth of those noble families who were unlucky because of his recovery. There are also many nobles who don't want to rebuild the Kingdom of Stars and dare not It's an obvious increase in chips, but it gives us some hints.
Among the bounty hunters I know, you are the only one who hopes to get this bounty, and you are the only one who can get all the bounty after completing the mission! And it's not just us, you must not want the ninja world to be unified by him and disappear in exchange for gold, right? ! "
"Ten billions..." Kakuzu locked eyes with the money exchange boss with a murderous look.
The boss quickly raised his hand and said, "I don't have any ill intentions, and I don't dare to force you to complete this extremely dangerous reward. I just provide you with information according to the rules and let you make your own decision.
If you want to complete this bounty, now is your best chance. According to reliable intelligence, the five major countries have just been able to maintain their autonomy for the time being, but the small countries caught in the gap will be brought under the rule of the Fire Nation, and no other major country will openly stop it.
And he just went to the Kingdom of Tian in person and met with the name of the Kingdom of Tian. Now he is heading towards the Kingdom of Rain, alone! "
Kakuzu was silent for a while. Is the target the legendary first ninja?
"This bounty is special. I need to obtain his detailed information and advance a bounty of 200 million. If it fails, the bounty will not be refunded."
"This... this is against the rules... wait!" Seeing that Kakuzu was about to leave again, he quickly shouted: "I want to ask the superiors for instructions first, don't worry..."
"Asking for instructions? The order given to you should be at all costs." Kakuzu said calmly.
"If you still need to ask for instructions, just wait until you make up your mind and then come to me."
…
Rain Ninja Village, on the top floor of the central tower.
Xiaonan and Tiandao are standing here.
These days, the most common thing the two of them say when they meet is, 'Is it him?'
But not long ago it was changed to 'It's him'!
There is no portrait of the first daimyo in the Land of Rain, but it is not difficult to get a copy from other places. In addition, the ancient noble clothes Ji Xing was wearing when he appeared are all proof.
They felt it was ridiculous. How could a random psychic bring a legendary figure from a thousand years ago back to the ninja world? We also carefully explained to him the current situation of the ninja world and invited him to join!
But it also solved all the doubts, including the disappearance of Black Zetsu, the disappearance of 'Uchiha Madara' and other unusual things... Overall, it's not a bad thing.
They formed the Akatsuki organization because they hated war, and wanted to rescue the goddess and reunify the ninja world. The purpose of the first generation daimyo was exactly the same as theirs.
But after discussing it, Nagato decided not to do anything for the time being and wait for the other party to come back.
"Everything we know about him comes from historical records, but after thousands of years, he may not be willing to take too big a risk to rescue the goddess. His attitude was ambiguous during the few days he was in the Rain Ninja Village, and he eventually took her away secretly Black Jue.
Even if he is willing to rescue the goddess, the five powerful countries that occupy high positions will definitely cause trouble for him in the open and covert, and block his actions. If he can't handle it, we will do it! "
This is Nagato's idea. From the news he has heard these days, the five major countries seem to be cooperating beyond expectations. He also has higher expectations for meeting the first daimyo again.
"coming!"
…
In the drizzle, Ji Xing was walking on a slightly muddy path.
It was like shrinking to an inch in the fairy tale. As he walked, he occasionally took a step, and the next step landed a few meters away.
This is an exercise in space ninjutsu.
The Flying Thunder God Jutsu is a 'positioning space ninjutsu'. By communicating with the chakra on the Flying Thunder God rune on the thrown Flying Thunder God Kunai, or the runes imprinted on other locations, the coordinates are determined, and then two tasks are completed. shuttle between points.
He had done something similar in the Fairy Tail world. The magic mark he left behind not only allowed him to perceive distances across space, but could even travel across time.
But chakra is different from magic power. It is a kind of energy that loses very quickly after leaving the human body and is difficult to change its nature. Therefore, although Ji Xing is very familiar with the depiction of the Flying Thunder God's runes, he can only draw them within a radius of about ten meters. Precise spatial movement within the range makes it difficult to make progress.
"If I want to go further, I need to simplify the runes, erase the permanent retention attribute, and make my chakra mark faster and easier... Obito's kaleidoscope analysis has also been completed..."
Thinking about the next step of practice, a call suddenly came from the palm of my hand: "Father!"
"I know."
Ji Xing's pace returned to normal.
There is only a hill away from Yuren Village, and the other side of the hill is where he was channeled with the missile that day.
He has also dabbled in sensory ninjutsu these days, and can capture Tiandao and Konan approaching in the distance, but before that...
There is also an extra welcome ceremony!
Whoosh--with two undetectable wind whistles piercing the air, two shurikens drew huge arcs in the air, sneaking towards Ji Xing in the rain.
One cuts the chest, the other cuts the neck!
Ji Xing's right hand bent his fingers, and with a flash of lightning, he stabbed from bottom to top, and accurately stopped all two shurikens, spinning them on his fingertips before falling to the ground.
Amidst the clanging sound, Ji Xing clasped his hands together.
"Earth Escape-Earth Style Spear Formation!"
Rumble——
Amidst the violent shaking sound, the hill in front of me seemed to turn into a hedgehog in an instant!
Countless sharp earth spears grow densely, tearing the earth apart, destroying trees, and forcing out the hidden ones who throw shurikens!
Jumping high in the sky, Kakudu's eyes scanned the dangerous ground below, adding a sense of gloom. When he met Ji Xing's eyes opposite him, his heart sank again.
"Earth Release - Heavenly Falling Mountain!" Ji Xing spoke the name of the ninjutsu without moving his hands together.
In an instant, a small mountain-like boulder appeared above Kakuzu's head, as if a small meteorite appeared out of thin air, crushing him in the air, and the shadow completely enveloped him!
"Hmph, do the ordinary B-level ninjutsu Doryu Gun and Tensou Gai have such power? Five billion and ten billion are really not so easy to get."
Kakuzu groaned inwardly, and the wrist of his right hand was ejected from his arm. Connected by the tentacles, he directly grabbed the earth spear that had just been thrust out from the distance, hoping to use it to swing away into the distance to avoid it.
But at this moment, a wave of water intercepted his tentacles as if they were ready, cutting them off and preventing him from escaping!
"Water Release-Water Breaking Wave!"
This blow...so fast!
This thing didn't attack me directly? !
The huge boulder above crushed him with a rumble, causing a fishy sweetness to appear in Jiaodu's throat with hardened skin. He was directly buckled down, and his ears were filled with the rumbling and shattering sound of the boulder colliding with the earth spear.
'My own jutsu collided with each other and did not cause enough damage to me. It also gave me a chance to hide my figure. However, the jutsu that could cause effective damage missed. This initial ninja does not seem to have much combat experience... 'As soon as this thought flashed through Kakuzu's mind, he suddenly felt horrified in his heart.
This kind of chakra fluctuation...? !
Or how much? !
How can it be? !
"Immortal Technique - Wind Release - Spiral Shuriken!"
The giant shuriken in his right hand was thrown away, and a dark chakra sphere formed in the palm of Ji Xing's left hand, surrounded by nebulae.
"Big Spiral Yu!"
At the same time, a scarlet sphere also formed in front of his open mouth.
"Tailed beast jade!"
Boom boom boom!
!
Three attacks, slightly spaced back and forth, hit the hill in front. The roar of the moment was like the eruption of a volcano that had been silent for hundreds of millions of years. The shock wave that shook the space completely covered the hill!
The blazing white light took away the brilliance of the sun, and the earth shook as if a magnitude 10 earthquake had occurred.
Cracks spread to the distance, and the strong wind that swallowed up all the flowers and trees rolled into the sky and the earth. The two shurikens thrown by Ji Xing's feet jingled into the distance. Among the magnificent sounds, the sound was difficult to distinguish. !
After a long time, the impact dissipated, and some of the dark clouds in the sky were dispersed. The rays of the sun shone on the hills that had turned into flat ground or even depressions, and a ray of bright color finally appeared on the land that had been raining for days.
Ji Xing looked at Jin Can in front of him.
"Didn't you survive even five lives? Then forget it, it's not appropriate to let him take charge of the finances."
He continued walking towards the Rain Ninja Village.
