Chapter 183: Mr. Kakuto's own opinion (1)
Chapter 183 Mr. Kakutsu’s own opinion (1)
"Don't let him get away!"
"Come on!"
A figure was running quickly in the woods, followed by a large group of sand hermit ninjas, chasing the figure in front of them.
Countless kunai and shurikens flew from behind, with detonating symbols mixed in them, and immediately detonated in the forest.
The impact force generated immediately made the fleeing man unable to bear the impact force, rolling his body on the ground.
"I didn't expect to pursue it to such an extent. It's really like a cowhide plaster."
Even the undead who have been able to run rampant in the underground black market for many years feel extremely tired in the face of the day and night pursuit of sand hidden ninjas.
Jiaodu knew very well in his heart why he fell into this situation.
It was because of his favorite money.
On the battlefield where Sagakure and Ugakure were fighting, he took advantage of Sagakure's high-level adviser Chiyo not paying attention, and snatched the body of Ugakure's former leader, Sansho Hanzo, from her face.
This corpse worth hundreds of millions is the fundamental reason why he has been constantly being chased by sand hidden ninjas these days.
Sugashi had already lost on the battlefield of the Land of Rain, and had no choice but to sign an armistice agreement with Konoha not long ago. It can be said that they set off the third ninja world war, but they did not get the rich results they wanted.
If even Hanzo’s body is taken away by a bounty hunter in the underground black market, he really won’t get anything.
For this reason, Sain did not dare to fight Konoha again, but Kakutsu, who was a loner, took away their important and only important spoils of Sain, and could not give up no matter what.
So immediately dispatched a large number of elite ninjas, chasing and killing Kakuzu to a terrible situation where there was no way to go to the sky and nowhere to go to the ground.
Even if Sagakushi lost on the frontal battlefield, losing to Konoha by a narrow margin, it doesn't mean that Sagakushi's majesty is something that a mere bounty hunter can offend.
How long the days of being chased and killed lasted, Kakudo couldn’t remember, but it should have been at least half a month... No, it may have lasted for as long as a month.
All the tricks on him have been exhausted. After killing dozens of ninjas chasing him, there are still many powerful junin among them. Therefore, his information is basically leaked.
In order to deal with him, Sha Yin sent all ninjas with considerable strength, long-range, melee, perception, defense, various body skills, ninjutsu, and illusions are overwhelming.
Not only that, he originally had five hearts, but now he only has two hearts left.
The main body now has an earth attribute heart, and another fire attribute heart.
As an S-rank rebel who defected from Longyin Village decades ago, when he left the village, the only valuable thing he took away was this forbidden technique called 'Earth Resentment'.
By capturing someone else's heart and storing it in your own body, you can then prolong your lifespan, and you can also master new chakra attribute changes through the captured heart.
Therefore, in his heyday, he was proficient in the five chakra nature-changing ninjutsu of fire escape, earth escape, water escape, thunder escape, and wind escape.
It is also equivalent to having five hearts, as long as the five hearts are not destroyed at the same time, they will not die.
He has already stepped into the realm of inhumanity.
Where the body and arms are separated from the arms, a large number of black tentacles are released, and the mouth and back are also occupied by black tentacles.
Under the constant pursuit of the sand hidden ninja, he had to activate the strongest form, which also meant that if this form was also defeated, he would have nothing to do.
There are quite a few sand hidden ninjas chasing after them, there are hundreds of them, and the leader is a very young female ninja.
Cape remembers her name, more precisely, remembers the bounty offered by this young female ninja.
Sand Occult Blood Successor Boundary Burning Escape Ninja—Ye Cang.
The underground black market has a bounty of up to 45 million taels.
Although it is not as good as Konoha's Sannin and the yellow flash who has recently gained fame, among the younger generation of ninjas in the ninja world, there are definitely not many ninjas who can steadily beat her.
Even if they meet alone, Jiaodu can't guarantee that he can kill the opponent without injury, and it is very likely that he will lose a heart or two to win.
After all, the power of Burning Dun is too terrifying. Even if it passes by without touching it, it will drain the moisture in the human body in an instant. Even the medical ninjas can't catch up with the treatment, so the enemy turns into a mummified corpse and dies.
This kind of killing ninjutsu, which can be called a one-hit kill, is also very afraid of Kakuzu.
What's more, there are nearly a hundred sand ninjas behind her. Judging from the aura of these sand ninjas and the skills they show, they are all powerful ninjas of at least the middle ninja level.
With only two hearts left, it is absolutely impossible for me to be the opponent of these sand hidden ninjas, and it is even more impossible when my information has been leaked.
Jiadu stood up from the ground, and instead of entangled with these sand ninjas, he drove the black monster with a heart of fire attribute to intercept the sand ninjas who were chasing quickly from behind.
The face of the black monster was covered with a red mask, and then its mouth opened. The inside of the dark mouth was immediately occupied by fiery red light, causing the surrounding air to heat up rapidly.
"Fire Escape · Head Hard!"
Like overwhelming waves surging in the sea, the sea of fire spread out in an instant. Wherever it passed, the trees and the ground were all evaporated by the high-temperature flames.
The air became extremely dry and hot, making people blush.
"Water Escape·Water Array Wall!"
Among the 100-person team, a few sand ninjas immediately cast water escape ninjutsu at the same time, sprayed water from their mouths, and erected a huge water wall in front of the team to intercept this extremely powerful fire escape ninjutsu.
White steam covered the area, and the black giant with a red mask twisted its neck immediately, and what spewed out from its mouth was not a sea of flames, but fire bombs.
The power of the fire bomb is far lower than the impact of the sea of fire, but it is superior in speed, attacking the sand hidden ninja through the air.
The rainy forest was suddenly covered by loud explosions, and the flashes of explosions followed one after another, making the chasing sand ninjas flustered for a while.
But soon they stabilized their position, and there was a strange rattling sound. Under the control of Chakras, a dozen puppets flew in the sky, swung their spears or blades, and slashed mercilessly at the red masked monster.
The red-masked monster moves flexibly, but a dozen puppets block all the front, rear, left, right, and top. The red-masked monster without the ability to escape can only be attacked by a dozen puppets.
Boom!
The red mask monster hit the tree and broke the tree.
Continued to spew fireballs from his mouth, one after another, trying to use indiscriminate attacks to stop the sand hidden ninja from moving forward.
However, under the leadership of the burning escape ninja Ye Cang, arranging a few puppet masters and a few ninjas who can use water escape ninjutsu are enough to contain this fierce attacking red mask monster.
According to the intelligence, the opponent's ability to use the five evasion techniques is indeed outstanding, but a single attribute is nothing to be afraid of.
Especially under the premise of losing three attributes of the masked monster, a masked monster that can only escape fire, as long as it is suppressed with the opposite chakra ninjutsu, it is not a problem at all.
Sent people to contain the red masked monster, Ye Cang took the rest of the sand hidden ninjas, and continued to chase Kakutsu forward.
In any case, Hanzo's corpse, which was supposed to be their Sand Hidden trophy, had to be recovered.
This is also the dignity of Shayin. You cannot let a ninja from the underground black market trample on it. You must let this kind of bounty ninja know what the power of a ninja from the Five Great Nations is.
Boom boom boom!
Boom boom boom!
Ku Wushang flying over, all wrapped with detonating symbols.
Using Earth Dun·Hardening Technique, I felt waves of body pain.
Kunai poses no threat to him, but the raindrop-falling Kunai, as well as the detonating talisman, a very powerful ninja tool, has extraordinary lethality.
The black tentacles were blown away one by one. Even though the body was hardened in all aspects, it still couldn't stop the continuous bombardment of detonating symbols.
Rolled on the ground, didn't cry out in pain, got up, and ran away expressionlessly.
I was terrified in my heart, and I also felt a little flustered.
I never imagined that I, who had been in the underground black market for decades, would end up in such a mess.
The sensory ninja behind him keeps locking on himself, even if he wants to confuse his vision with avatars and avatars, he will be found out immediately.
There is also a way to escape, and that is to hand over Hanzo's body to divert the attention of the sand hidden ninjas. In this way, his chances of escape will be greatly increased.
Which is more important, life or money?
As long as people with mature intelligence understand this problem, how should they make a decision in the end.
Kakudo is not a mentally handicapped ninja, so he naturally understands this question, and in a general sense, how to choose the correct answer.
However, it is not Kakudu's own pursuit of the answer in this general sense.
Correct...must be right?
From Kakuzu’s point of view, this world is filled with two kinds of things—
One is the sweet taste of happiness when making money, and the other is the bitterness of misfortune when being betrayed.
The bitterness of encountering betrayal is a memory from a long time ago.
I was so numb that I couldn't recall what my original motivation was.
But as long as I know that the taste is very bitter, I decide not to touch it anymore.
Stop trusting anyone, and you can avoid the birth of this bitterness.
So, money gave him a second life meaning.
That is the sweet taste of happiness.
And this sweet taste of happiness is the only way for him to connect with this cold world.
Let yourself understand the fact that you are still living in this world.
Therefore, giving up Hanzo's body does not mean giving up money, but giving up oneself.
Give up the value of living in this world.
Money is life, and money is the meaning of living.
Because I understand the bitterness of being betrayed, I don't want to be betrayed by anyone again.
Money did not betray him, and he certainly had no reason to betray money.
Neither betrayed by money nor betrayed by money.
After letting go of money, what else can be left?
What remains is emptiness, sin, confusion, and real death.
When a person dies, it is the moment when faith collapses.
As long as the money does not fall, he will not die.
If you die and die with money, it is also a kind of sweetness of happiness.
What he holds in his hand is not money, but the belief and courage enough to allow him to live in this hellish real world.
The sharp blade piercing the air kept coming from my ears, and then the detonating amulet exploded with light in an instant.
He ran forward with pain in his body, but his speed had already slowed down.
Already able to hear the footsteps of the sand hidden ninja behind him, getting closer and closer, he will soon catch up with him, plunder his life, and plunder his faith.
Killing so many of himself, Kakuzu doesn't want to confess anything.
If the righteousness of making money by yourself hinders others, then in the eyes of others, you are the evil that must be eradicated.
Life is not happiness, and death is not worth lamenting.
Kill today, be killed tomorrow.
When you decide to take the path of ninja, you must be ready to die and be prepared to be killed by revenge.
Unfortunately, in the end, I couldn't exchange this corpse worth hundreds of millions of taels...Compared to death, it is even more regrettable that Jiaodu was at the moment when his consciousness was almost interrupted.
Lying and dying in the ocean of money, it would be even better if you can end your life under such an illusion.
…
The center of the forest was blown up by a storm, and there were potholes everywhere. Ye Cang surrounded him with sand ninjas, trying to recover all the corpses of the enemy and Hanzo.
When I walked up to look, the pothole created by the explosion was still there, but the enemy who should have died in the pothole disappeared from the pothole, as if it never existed.
The perception ninja responsible for locking the target looked stunned, and the chakra reaction...disappeared?
Where did that body go?
Is it possible that the dead can escape by themselves?
Sand hidden ninjas surrounded by the pothole also looked at each other in blank dismay.
"Junin Hakura, what should we do next?"
"Look around, maybe it's hidden somewhere."
Ye Cang frowned, then waved his hand to give orders.
"yes."
The sand ninjas scattered and began to search.
◎
The head emerged from the ground, and then the whole body emerged from the ground, and put the person who was only breathing behind him on the ground.
The local man who was in charge of reconnaissance and infiltration work among Xuan Yuanzhong took a deep breath.
"Bringing people out from the hands of those sand hidden ninjas almost revealed their secrets."
Tu Nan looked at Jiaodu who was lying on the ground, he was already dying, and he was able to hold his last breath in that situation, which is really a strong vitality.
An ordinary ninja would have been killed on the spot.
But seeing the tentacled body at the angle, he was relieved.
This is the powerful power obtained by giving up the human body.
It's not like a human being with tenacious vitality.
The tentacles on Kakuzu's body were wilted, like algae spreading on the cold ground, in a scrapped and unusable state.
Jiang raised his head with difficulty, and his green pupils could barely see what was in front of him clearly.
Including the earth man who is proficient in earth escape and infiltration, the other four are all old acquaintances of him.
A secret agent belonging to the army of the ghost country, the five-member group of Xuanyuanzhong that has emerged in the underground black market in recent years.
The leader is the worm man who uses the blaster secret technique.
Seeing that Jiao is in such a mess, a teasing smile appeared on Zong Nan's face.
"Mr. Kakuzu, you are really **** off this time."
"You are five hundred thousand taels... the one with the low bounty?"
"No, I've reached 10 million taels now."
The bug man corrected Kakuzu's words.
"Really... are you here for my bounty...?"
Jiangdu was talking intermittently, and his body was extremely weak.
The fire-attributed masked monster was wiped out by Sand Hidden, and now he has only his last heart left. Once this heart is destroyed, it means that he, as an undead, will die.
He has a very high bounty in the underground black market. Although he secretly maintains a financial cooperation relationship with the Kingdom of Ghosts, but he has fallen to this point, and the other party brought him out, the purpose is self-evident.
"The bounty of eighty-five million taels is indeed very attractive, but we are following the order of the leader, and this time we are here to formally invite you to join us."
The worm man put away his smile, and said this sentence seriously.
"boring…"
"Is money so worth everything you give? Even if you sacrifice your life?"
"What can little brats like you know?"
"Is it a kid?"
The undead monster who has lived from the Warring States Period to the present is indeed qualified to say such words.
"Money is like life to me... Hell... also depends on money."
“Really incredible confidence.”
"It doesn't matter if you want me to join, I'm not interested in any organization."
Contact with people will inevitably be betrayed, and betrayal will remind him of unpleasant past events.
In this world where only money will not betray him, only money is left to believe.
"Although that is the case, it is also our leader's intention to save you."
"Huh... don't think that I will be grateful to you."
"If I need your gratitude, I won't save you... Besides, the old man is not cute at all, Mr. Kakuzu is already past that age."
The bastard! Jiaodu's green eyes burst out with murderous aura.
If he is not unable to move now, he must be chopped into pieces.
No, think about it carefully, this is too cheap for him, let's wait for his worth to rise a bit before killing him.
After all, the bounty offered by the other party is only 10 million taels, and there is still a lot of room for appreciation.
It would be too cheap to kill him now.
Thinking like this, Jiaodu felt that he was getting more and more tired, his eyelids were so thick that they were about to close, and finally he couldn't resist the will to sleep, and closed his eyes tiredly.
◎
When Jiaodu regained consciousness again, there was some noise in his ears.
Someone is walking around me.
But the strange thing is that when I regain consciousness, I can't open my eyes and clearly see who is walking around me.
"What an amazing body!"
A man's exclamation full of curiosity came from his ear.
corners can still smell, the surrounding cold, cold smell full of disinfectant.
The bed board where the skin on the back is in contact is also very cold, making it clear to Jiaodu that he is lying on the operating table and being studied by others.
The unidentified man beside him was doing mischief against his body, touching and pinching it for a while, and occasionally he could hear the sound of a scalpel cutting something, and then injected something warm into it.
It should be performing some kind of medical ninjutsu on his seriously injured body.
"Aren't you alright?"
Another voice came in, this voice was very familiar, it was the guy named Chong Man who was worth 500,000 taels.
"Hurry up, because it's the first time I've come across such an interesting body structure, and it's even weirder than that Bai Jue, and I couldn't help it for a while."
"He's a man, leader."
Reminder from Bug Man.
"Of course I know this kind of thing, I'm just interested in this guy's body."
Although Jiao is very clear about the extent to which the other party is interested in his body, he still has to say that this is a research freak.
But for medical ninjas, his extremely weird body is indeed a rare material for experimental subjects.
In a daze, Jiaodu fell asleep again.
I don't know how long it took, and the horns opened their eyes.
I found that what was lying under me was not a cold operating table, but a soft bed.
The air outside is a bit cold. After all, it is already January, and the temperature of the air will naturally drop.
But because today is a rare sunny day, the bright sunshine will somewhat dispel the chill in the air.
The body has recovered, but the head is very dizzy. It is because I have been lying on the bed for a long time, and I can't adapt to the current weak state for a while.
But out of danger of life, this corner can be sensed by itself.
It's ridiculous to be saved. This is the only thought in Kakuto's heart.
I don't know if I am laughing at the person who saved me, or I am laughing at myself for being saved.
Or, both of these are extremely ridiculous things to him.
Abandoning everything, constantly creating killings and tragedies in the ninja world, only money is left in my heart as a pillar, and I am not qualified to enjoy the goodwill of others.
Similarly, I have no extra kindness to give to others.
Fighting alone, failing, and then dying silently, being forgotten by the world, this is a destiny that should have been defined.
He then touched his chest again, the scroll that sealed Hanzo's body was still in his clothes, and no one had taken it away, and he immediately felt relieved.
"It seems to be recovering well, Mr. Kakutsu."
Someone opened the door of the ward, and a white-haired worm man walked in from the outside, smiling at the corners.
"I didn't expect that you would really do such a superfluous loss-making thing."
"How can it be said that it is a loss? We sincerely invited Mr. Kakuzu to join. Because of the shortage of manpower, we want to recruit a strong ninja like Mr. Kakutsu."
"Are you really all right? I'm a defected ninja."
Defecting a ninja means betraying one's own village in the past. No matter what the reason is, this is a stain that has been criticized by others.
Therefore, it is common sense in the ninja world that defected ninjas cannot be trusted.
Even if you become a bounty hunter, the trust and honor you get is only because of your belief in money and the so-called alliance of interests.
Trusting the defecting ninja from an emotional level is a ridiculous move in itself.
"Forty-five years ago, Mr. Kakutsu was an excellent Jōnin in Takigakure Village. He followed the order of the village's senior management and went to Konoha to assassinate the first Hokage."
The corners narrowed their eyes, and then pretended to be relaxed and said: "Your intelligence network is indeed very powerful, but that's all. As long as you collect it carefully, you can dig out something from Takiyin Village."
Chongnan smiled slightly, and continued: "Later, the assassination mission failed. Mr. Kadotsu, who returned to the village, was accused of failure by the senior management of Longyin Village because he failed to complete the mission.
Assassinations are often accompanied by many failures.
If the assassination fails, the ninjas of the village are severely punished. For the loyal ninjas who are ready to sacrifice their lives to fight for the village, it is too unreasonable and too cruel. It is easy to make the ninjas of the village resentful and dissatisfied.
Thus, according to the conclusion based on the intelligence, those who fail the assassination mission will be severely punished, and they will almost die in prison. There is a high probability that they will be involved in the power struggle among the senior officials of Takiyin Village, so they will be treated unfairly.
After all, assassinating the first generation of Hokage... A person with a normal mind should also know that it is an impossible task.
If the assassination is successful, the strongest ninja village should not be Konoha, but Takiyin village.
In fact, Takiyin Village, which was once powerful for a while, has long since declined, and there is not even a decent and powerful ninja.
Therefore, in that case, killing the high-level officials who treated him unfairly, and then taking away the forbidden technique 'Earth Resentment' from the village, is the only way Kakudo can choose.
After that, Kakuzu embarked on the road of defection.
Begin advocating money that will not betray oneself, and take money as a belief. For decades, I have lived a long and boring life of making money.
"What does that mean? As I said, you are just a bunch of little brats who don't understand anything. In this world, only money can be trusted."
So, if you don’t trust humans, you can avoid being betrayed.
Rather than changing to another way of life, it is better to say it is to escape and close one's heart.
Jiadu got off the bed and walked out of the room.
"The reward for saving me this time, I will pay you one hundred times my own bounty."
My bounty is 85 million taels, one hundred times is 8.5 billion taels.
Paying this part of the reward means that there is basically nothing left of the rewards I have earned from working as a bounty hunter for decades.
But compared to losing the money full of happiness and sweetness, being in debt is undoubtedly a more disgusting thing for him.
Including the mysterious existence behind the worm man throwing an olive branch to him, and wanting to establish the trust that only a companion can have with him, it is also full of disgust.
In this world, there is no so-called trust.
Among human beings, there is only betrayal and being betrayed, only killing and being killed.
In such a dirty world, there is no such thing as redemption.
Money is the last warmth in his life.
Trust...is too much of a luxury.
"That's a pity, but I'm sure we'll see each other again soon."
The worm man said so.
The corners raised their eyebrows and sneered: "I admit that I was careless when I was chased by Sand Yin this time. But after I exchange Hanzo's body for money, I will lie dormant for a while. Don't worry, I won't come to this kind of place again."
An experienced hunter will not fail twice in the same place.
This is the confidence that Kakuzu has.
Jiang left without delay.
The worm man scratched his head.
Actually, he really wanted to say that the ninja who was staring at Hanzo's corpse was not only the sand ninja, but also a guy who was more terrifying than the sand ninja.
