Konoha: Reforge the glory of Uchiha! - Chapter 89
c89 Kakuzu: Are you the manipulator behind the futures? You bastard, die!
A bounty hunter with five hearts?
Kakuzu?
Uchiha Nan thought of the immortal duo of the Akatsuki group. Kakuzu was captured alive by Konoha at this time. After all, his emergence affected the storyline of the Naruto world, causing a butterfly effect.
Although Uchiha Nan had already made mental preparations for this, when the butterfly effect really appeared, a strange sense of absurdity still arose in his heart.
“That bounty hunter also claimed to have fought against the Shodaime-sama. He said that after assassinating the Shodaime-sama, he walked out of Konoha unscathed.”
“Hahahahaha”
“humor!”
“Assassinate the Shodaime-sama?”
“I’m afraid I’m dizzy, hahaha”
Uchiha Tomita’s cheeks were red, and he repeated all the nonsense he had said when Kakuzu was caught. The wine table was suddenly filled with joy, and everyone laughed.
How dare a mere bounty hunter touch Konoha’s First Generation!
Everyone here didn’t believe Kakuzu’s words, except Uchiha Kusu.
Because Kakuzu actually assassinated the first generation, he was jokingly said that he threw a shuriken from eight hundred miles away.
As for the assassination process, Kakuzu probably exaggerated a lot in order to flatter himself.
After all, he is a bounty hunter. If he advertised that he had rich assassination experience and had assassinated big figures in the ninja world when he first entered the industry, it would be much easier to receive orders.
Although the process was exaggerated, Kakuzu did not lie in the end and really came out of Konoha unscathed.
Uchiha Nan decided to meet Kakuzu the next day and wanted to know what madness Kakuzu had gone to to dare to attack the Konoha Hyuga clan.
A wandering bounty hunter in the ninja world trying to stir up the bottom line of Konoha’s top wealthy families is simply asking for death. No Kakuzu in his right mind would do such a stupid thing, so he can’t really risk his life for the bounty. But It’s not impossible for Kakuzu to do such a thing given his personality.
While Uchiha Kusu was thinking about Kakuzu’s motive for committing the crime, the people around him began to toast him. On such a happy day, Uchiha Kusu naturally refused to accept everyone who came. He got very drunk and was finally carried home. .
The next day, Uchiha Nan came to the prison where Kakuzu was imprisoned with curiosity.
Kakuzu’s whole body was tied up, and the sealing techniques on his body were covered layer by layer. For a bounty hunter of Kakuzu’s strength, Uchiha Tomita was very careful, and accidents would happen if he made any mistakes.
“Are you here to kill me?”
“If you want to take action, hurry up.”
Kakuzu said feebly. It seemed that he had been tortured a lot these past few days. He only had to take a pill every day to prevent Kakuzu from starving to death. He didn’t even have the strength to open his eyelids.
“I don’t want to kill you. Although you have offended the Hyuga clan, I appreciate your strength and belief. As long as I come forward to intercede for you, the Hyuga clan will be lenient.”
Uchiha Nan unlocked the sealing technique on Kakuzu and handed Kakuzu a food box, which contained three dishes, one soup, and several rice balls.
As if he was reincarnated as a starving ghost, Kakuzu opened the food box and started eating large pieces of fruit, talking indistinctly while eating.
“What is your identity in Konoha? Are you trying to recruit me?”
“My target this time is the clan’s Byakugan, the lifeblood of the Hyuga clan.”
Kakuzu, who has been on the battlefield for a long time, immediately understood Uchiha Kusu’s intention, but he didn’t have high hopes in his heart. The Hyuga clan is now in the spotlight in Konoha, and the clan leader Hyuga Takuma has become Konoha’s Hokage assistant.
If you want to quell the anger of the Hyuga clan and recruit yourself, unless the Hokage of Konoha comes forward.
“I am Uchiha Kusu, the Third Hokage of Konoha.”
After hearing what Uchiha Nan said, he raised his head and showed an incredulous look. Is he really the Hokage of Konoha, deigning to recruit himself as a bounty hunter?
“What is there in me that the Hokage of Konoha should value so much?”
Kakuzu is no longer the novice ninja who was fooled into assassinating Senju Hashirama by just a few words from the village’s top brass.
After working as a bounty hunter for so many years, he has gone through a lot of hardships. He has seen too many people who are smiling and calling you brothers one moment, and then stabbing you in the back for profit the next moment.
His heart has long since become extremely cold, and he will never believe in anything except money.
Uchiha Nan must have wanted to benefit from himself when he saved him!
However, Kakuzu was confused in his heart. He knew very well that his current situation was that he was just a prisoner who could be executed at any time. What else could Uchiha Nan value?
Armed with force?
Uchiha Kusu has no shortage of powerful ninjas who work for him.
“Of course that is your belief. I understand your past. You were once ordered by the senior officials of Takinin Village to assassinate the Shodaime of Konoha. Later, the Shodaime kindly let you go. After you escaped by chance, you were treated as a scapegoat. ”
Uchiha Nan told Kakuzu about the past that he least wanted to recall. Kakuzu burped, with a self-deprecating smile on his face, and said slowly:
“Hokage-sama’s intelligence department is really amazing. They found out everything about me. I killed all the senior officials of Taki Ninja Village at that time. How can a senior executive who kills his superiors have any commendable beliefs?”
“Your faith is something Konoha ninjas don’t possess. No one knows better than me how much you want to make money.”
Uchiha Nan’s answer surprised Kakuzu. If you talk about making money, then Kakuzu will not be sleepy. He must talk about his ideals with Uchiha Nan.
Uchiha Nan saw the eager light in Kakuzu’s eyes and smiled with satisfaction. Konoha’s future business must be huge. Regarding the cost loss and profit return, people like Kakuzu are needed to work for them.
Kakuzu’s desire to make money can make him do bounty missions like a slave for decades, and finally let the Akatsuki organization take all the money.
I can give Kakuzu a bigger stage, constantly train him, and let him fully display his talents in the ninja world.
“In the future, Konoha will transform. You can only make a few money by working hard to do those tasks. Food, steel, energy, and medical care will all be involved in Konoha. Do you know industrialization? Manufacturing and profitable military industry.”
Uchiha Nan talked eloquently and began to paint a pie for Kakuzu. A business blueprint of one trillion and ten trillion was vividly described by Uchiha Nan.
Under Uchiha Nan’s vivid narration, Kakuzu’s heart began to heat up.
Is this the capacity of Konoha Hokage?
It’s too small. My pattern is really too small!
“As long as the manufacturing industry is spread across the ninja world, we can play some more interesting tricks, such as finance, which is the magic of money and can make money faster than a money printing machine!”
“Now I have begun to lay out the financial game. Have you heard of pig iron futures?”
“I am the big dealer behind the scenes. I and the daimyo jointly made hundreds of billions of taels of silver at one time!”
Kakuzu was listening to Uchiha Nan’s pie in the sky with great interest until he heard about pig iron futures and his face changed color instantly.
Damn beast, it turns out that you are the big dealer behind the scenes!
All the money I earned from doing bounty missions all year round was taken away by you!
“You bastard, die!”
Kakuzu was physically weak and his emotions surged for a while. His fists were weak and not fast enough, not fierce enough, and were easily avoided by Uchiha Nan.
What happened?
He was chatting happily. He just talked about his proud trading work, why did he suddenly start?
Uchiha Nan restarted the seal in the room and controlled Kakuzu.
“You bastard!” “If you hadn’t cheated me of all my money, how could I have taken the risk to get my money!”
Kakuzu had been tied up like a dumpling, unable to move, but he kept cursing, wishing to die with Uchiha Nan.
Money is Kakuzu’s lifeblood, and Uchiha Nan almost cut off Kakuzu’s lifeblood last time.
“You also play futures?”
Uchiha Nan remained calm on the surface, but laughed secretly in his heart. Kakuzu, you are really a trendsetter of the times, keep up with the trend, people like you should work for me!
“How much money did you lose?”
“One billion taels!”
“All the money I earned in my life was invested in it, and I haven’t sold those damn futures until now!”
“Oh, I know that, I won’t lose if I don’t sell it!”
“I… I… I’ll* you!”
It would have been better if Uchiha Nan didn’t mention this sentence. As soon as he said this, Kakuzu’s anger immediately surged. He had no way to break free from the shackles of the seal, and his limbs were shaking wildly.
“Don’t be so excited. As a dealer, I’m giving you a chance to make money. As long as you suppress your greed and sell in time, you can still make a lot of money. It’s you who have been adding positions and chasing high prices.”
“Because there are many people who have become rich overnight in futures.”
Uchiha Nan’s words were like a basin of cold water poured on Kakuzu’s head, which made him calm down a little. He once made 1 billion taels, but because of greed, he lost it all in the end.
The digital game of finance is too addictive and it’s too easy to get lost in it. Even now, Kakuzu still misses the feeling of making money at that time.
“Kakuzu, since you are a futures player, you should know that everything I said just now is not nonsense.”
“Consider whether you want to become my subordinate. Others have to kneel down to beg me for this opportunity, but I may not give it to them.”
Uchiha Nan looked at Kakuzu and invited him to form a team. If Kakuzu refused him, then Uchiha Nan would have to give Kakuzu to Senju Tobirama as a gift.
The body transformed by Di Yuanyu should be of great research value and is an excellent research material.
Senju Tobirama should be very satisfied with his gift.
Kakuzu thought with his dark green eyes. He didn’t have many choices in his current situation. Either he died or he chose to work for Uchiha Nan.
Facing the dog dealer who earned half of his life savings, Kakuzu hated Uchiha Nan for not finding him earlier. He could have kneeled down to work for Uchiha Nan at that time!
It’s really difficult to make everyone so embarrassed now.
However, Kakuzu’s moral integrity is already very low. He has done too many things such as killing people, stealing treasures, and stabbing people in the back.
Now not only is his life at stake, but he also has the opportunity to make back all the money he lost in the past. Kakuzu’s speed of sliding down to his knees is very fast. The dignity of the strong is not within Kakuzu’s consideration at all.
Making money, not shabby!
Uchiha Nan is the first ninja village in the ninja world and the Hokage of Konoha. It is not shameful for him to be his dog. Others want to be a dog but there is no way.
In just a few seconds, Kakuzu has completed his psychological preparation.
“I am willing to offer my loyalty to the Hokage!”
Kakuzu swore loyalty to Uchiha Nan, which satisfied Uchiha Nan and once again released the sealing technique from Kakuzu.
“You won’t regret today’s decision in the future!”
Uchiha Nan made a promise to Kakuzu.
“Hokage-sama, how do I calculate the wages for my work?”
Kakuzu decided to ask about the money first and let himself work for Uchiha Nan for free, then he would rather die.
“First go to Konoha’s Ministry of Finance to familiarize yourself with the work process. Do you know the Fire Nation’s annual currency issuance, the interest rates on bank deposits and loans, and the exchange rates of the currencies of the five major countries?
I will give you a few books to learn advanced knowledge first. Understand the theory of surplus value first, as well as monopoly value, variable capital, and immutable capital.”
“You just want wages without knowing anything. Do you really think this is a low-end way of making money like a ninja?”
Uchiha Nan has great expectations for Kakuzu, and his desire to make money will push him to continuously learn how to be a qualified capitalist.
Kakuzu was confused by Uchiha Kusu’s series of words. After working as a ninja for so many years, he only had an elementary school diploma. Is this knowledge a ninja should master?
“Can I make a lot of money by learning this?”
“It’s not about making a lot of money, it’s about making a lot of money!”
“I will introduce Nara Shigato as your guide. He will be responsible for the specific implementation of futures trading. I hope you can be better than your master!”
Kakuzu was excited, and he could imagine his bright future when it came to futures trading.
Making money is as easy as breathing!
Master White Fang once wrote this in his book.
White Fang?
Kakuzu suddenly remembered White Fang. Since Uchiha Kusu was the mastermind behind the scenes, wouldn’t White Fang, the trumpeter who sounded the chives step into the abyss, also be in Konoha!
“Master Uchiha Kusu, do you know White Fang?”
“White Fang? Are you talking about Hatake Sakumo? He is in Konoha.”
“He also participated in the pig iron futures plan and made a lot of money, almost 100 million taels. He will have no worries about food and drink for the rest of his life.”
“Can I see White Fang?”
“He helped me a lot when I was on the exchange.”
“Okay, since you are so familiar with each other, I will arrange for you and White Fang to be colleagues.”
Uchiha Nan answered casually, unaware that Kakuzu was already gritting his teeth.
After a while, Uchiha Kusu led Kakuzu out of the prison, and ordered Nara Shikato to go through a set of procedures for Kakuzu to clear his former identity as a bounty hunter, and put him on the Konoha ninja list.
That evening
Kakuzu got his wish and met the master White Fang whom he longed for. Although Hatake Sakumo had already put on a mask, Kakuzu still recognized Hatake Sakumo as White Fang at a glance.
“Thieves, die!”
