Chapter 129 Kakuzu: A Friend Who Doesn’t Hinder Me From Making Money Is a Good Friend.
Swoosh~
Another burst of air-breaking sound came, and this time Uchiha Kagami had no time to dodge.
Kakuzu's tentacle fist successfully hit Uchiha Kagami's back.
However, Kakuzu did not show any joy, but frowned.
"This touch is wrong, is it a substitution technique?"
Uchiha Kagami did use the substitution technique when the tentacle fist hit him as Kakuzu thought.
It must be said that the substitution technique, although it is only an E-level basic ninjutsu, is a divine skill if used well.
Uchiha Kagami is the best evidence.
If he hadn't used the substitution technique on impulse, he would have been injured by Kakuzu's tentacle fist.
"The ninja who can dodge my two attacks should not be an unknown person. Can the guy on the opposite side tell you his name?"
Walking out from behind a tree, Uchiha Kagami looked at Kakuzu with a solemn face.
"My name is Uchiha Kagami."
"I'm from the Uchiha family, wait a minute."
Kakuzu took out a booklet from his pocket and quickly searched through it.
"I found it. Your head is worth 30 million taels. Hehe~ I deserve to get rich today."
"Are you sure you can get me?"
"Oh? Do you know me?"
Putting away the booklet, Kakuzu didn't mind chatting with his prey.
Chatting before the battle to relax his mind was his last kindness to his prey.
"Of course, there are not many people in the entire ninja world who can escape from our first Hokage, Senju Hashirama."
"It seems that you really know me."
Kakuzu was still very melancholy when he heard the name of Senju Hashirama from his prey.
That year, he was still an aspiring young man who shed his blood for the village. He was fooled by the village leaders to assassinate the first Hokage of Konoha.
At that time, he thought that the first Hokage of Konoha was no different from the others he assassinated, and that as long as he took action, he could successfully kill the target.
When he really assassinated Hashirama Senju, he realized how wrong he was.
Hashirama Senju only separated a so-called wood clone, and he had used all his strength, but in the end he still couldn't beat this wood clone.
If Hashirama Senju hadn't been kind and sighed that he was a talent and let him go, he would have died in his hands.
There would be no bloodbath in Takigakure and snatching away the Earth Resentment.
The past was unbearable to look back on. Kakuzu recalled the danger when he assassinated Hashirama Senju, and thought of the other party's kindness, shook his head and said to the mirror.
"Forget it, since you are a Konoha ninja, you can go, I won't kill you."
"???"
Kakuzu's words made Uchiha Kagami unable to do it.
When watching the video on the light screen, he didn't find that Kakuzu was a sentimental person who would still care about favors.
Could it be because of Kakuzu's time?
In the light screen video, although there is no exact time for Kakuzu to appear, it should be after the 61st year of Konoha.
And this is only the end of the 21st year of Konoha.
There is a difference of more than 40 years in between.
In such a long time, anything can happen.
For example, turning a sentimental and kind Kakuzu into a cold-blooded butcher.
Thinking of this, Jing thought that maybe he could use the first generation's grace of not killing him back then to repay the favor and let him join Konoha?
"Mr. Kakuzu has been wandering in the ninja world for so many years. Have you ever thought about settling down?"
"You Konoha wants to recruit me?"
Kakuzu is a rookie who has just started out. When Uchiha Jing said this, he knew that the other party was recruiting him.
This made him feel a little funny.
Not to mention that he now believes in money, not the shitty friendship and bond.
Even if he is still the same person as before, he would not join Konoha.
"Hey~ I finally felt compassion. Since you don't want to leave, then you don't have to leave."
As soon as he finished speaking, Kakuzu activated the Earth Grudge: Nature Mask.
Four clones with black bodies and white horror masks jumped out of him.
"Mr. Kakuzu, wait a minute, we don't need to fight fearlessly."
Seeing Kakuzu split the Earth Grudge clone, ready to attack at any time, Uchiha Kagami was shocked.
Without thinking, he instantly opened the Mangekyō Sharingan and shot Kakuzu with a Tamamo that could turn the other party into his friend.
"Huh?"
Kakuzu, who was ready to kill Uchiha Kagami so that he could use his head to collect the bounty, seemed to have noticed something and did not act immediately for a while.
This made Uchiha Kagami breathe a sigh of relief.
To be honest, he was not afraid of Kakuzu. With the inventory of the light screen video, they already knew Kakuzu's weaknesses and fighting style.
With this information in hand, Jing was confident that he could kill Kakuzu.
However, they were here to "invite" Kakuzu to join Konoha, not to kill him.
Once a fight broke out, it would easily attract the Kumogakure ninja to come and check, and it would also easily arouse the anger of both sides.
No matter how you look at it, it's not worth the loss. It's better to make a Tamamo and make Kakuzu his friend.
With a friendship, he can also persuade Kakuzu to join Konoha.
"Kakuzu-san~, my good friend, don't you want to go back to Konoha with me?"
"Tsk~ What's good about going to Konoha? I can't make as much money doing missions as I do now. Besides, I don't like being controlled by others."
"Oh, these are all negotiable."
Uchiha Kagami walked up to Kakuzu with a smile on his face, put his arm around his shoulders, and acted like a good brother.
"Kakuzu-san~ Do you know what is most important in the ninja world nowadays?"
"Strength?"
". That's not wrong, but I think the most important thing should be power."
"Power?"
"That's right. To walk in the ninja world, you need power, background, and connections. Without these three things, no matter how strong you are, you are just a lonely person. Once something goes wrong, there will be no one to help you. Don't you think so, Kakuzu-san?"
"What you said seems to make some sense."
Seeing Kakuzu looking thoughtful, Kagami seemed very happy.
Just when he was about to continue persuading, he saw Kakuzu's face suddenly changed, and his tone became very firm.
"However, I am used to acting alone, so that I don't have to share the bounty I earn with others. As my friend, you should know that if anyone dares to stop me from making money, no one can stop me. And you, my friend, if you want me to join Konoha, you are delaying my making money, so..."
"So???"
"Friends who don't delay me from making money are good friends. What kind of people don't delay me from making money?"
"What?"
"Of course it's the dead!"
After saying this, the fire-attributed clone behind Kakuzu, completely ignoring the fact that the original body was still standing in front, fired a powerful fire escape at Uchiha Kagami in front.
"Fire escape: Head hard work."
