Chapter 218: Transaction with the Raikage
After the battle, the surrounding Anbu and elite ninjas also gathered together. Looking at Raikage's broken leg, they all felt very humiliated.
This is the headquarters of their Yunyin Village. Faced with the siege of so many of them, Lord Raikage even had one of his legs broken. If this spreads out, how will the reputation of Yunyin Village be saved?
The ninjas who have not experienced three wars now understand how valuable the titled war heroes of that era were. Natural disaster Luli was a shadow-level powerhouse!
After being deeply aware of Lu Li's strength, the uninformed ninjas present had another doubt in their hearts, that is, why would a war hero as powerful as Lu Li, who had made great achievements in the three battles, defect to Konoha?
Even if it is a golden flash, it may not be stronger than a natural disaster, right? But in the end, one person became Hokage, and the other became a defecting ninja that everyone yelled at. The treatment was really different.
"Samyi, go to the black market and post a bounty. Lu Li is offered a reward of 60 million across the country."
Raikage was helped by Kirabi to stand up and spoke.
"Sixty million!?"
Samyi's cold face was broken again, and he said in surprise, this is a rare bounty in the ninja world, and such bounties are usually given to shadow-level masters from big countries.
This amount of money is not a small amount, and the finances of Yunyin Village have been very average in recent years. Do you really want to use this money to offer rewards on the black market?
"Not many people can take this order."
The Raikage said calmly, he was not just a reckless man, he had the brains to become the Raikage.
Releasing the bounty is just an attitude. As for the bounty on the black market, outsiders will not know who put the bounty on Lu Li. It can be left to those who are interested to guess.
In fact, he didn't expect the folk bounty ninjas to get Lu Li's head at all. That was too unrealistic.
"I see……"
Samyi understood what Lord Raikage meant. He wanted to cause trouble to Lu Li, and at the same time, it was also a statement from Yunyin Village. They took Lu Li's trouble in Yunyin Village very seriously and were in a state of complete opposition.
"Darui, arrange for someone to contact Lu Li secretly and tell him that I accept his offer."
Raikage's next order shocked everyone present.
"Lord Raikage, do we still need to cooperate with the natural disaster!?"
Samui, who was calm by nature, became anxious and stepped forward to persuade him, "He is too dangerous, and how can we agree to his conditions? The thunder escape chakra mode is a secret technique that only the Raikages of all generations have mastered!"
Raikage looked gloomy and pointed to his broken leg, "He is worth this price now."
This was the official deal. Lu Li had already demonstrated his strength and value, and he indeed had the ability to penetrate into the Xiao organization.
As a major military power, Yunyin Village has also made many small moves behind the scenes in recent years. The Akatsuki organization has become more and more active as an international mercenary organization.
That old guy Onoki used the Akatsuki organization to cause him a lot of trouble, but he is currently more focused on the threat from the Akatsuki organization than his hatred for Onoki.
He had to drive a strong nail into such a dangerous organization before he could rest assured. Besides, he couldn't be sure that he would never be able to use the mercenary group organized by Akatsuki.
Of course, he would not directly give Lu Li what he wanted. Lu Li would only give him the secret technique if he could provide information of corresponding value.
In this process, Kumogakure Village actually did not have to take any risks. Whether Lu Li did well or badly in the Akatsuki organization had little to do with them. After all, Lu Li first rebelled against Konoha and then caused trouble with Kumogakure. The village's mortal enemy.
After Samyi figured out the key, her eyes changed slightly when she looked at the Raikage. She didn't expect that the seemingly reckless Raikage could be so resourceful. Sure enough, a simple-minded person cannot be a Kage. .
Only those who have been with Ai know it best. Of course Ai is not an old yinbi, but after so many years of fighting with Ohnoki of Iwagakure Village, he has developed some brains, otherwise all the bones that have been calculated long ago will be left.
Back then, the Third Raikage was tricked, and in the end, in order to make the army of Kumogakure retreat, he stopped all the ninjas of Iwagakure alone, and died of exhaustion after fighting for three days. This unforgettable hatred has not been forgotten by them.
Nowadays, they no longer regard Lu Li as one of their own. No matter from the perspective that Lu Li killed many ninjas of Yunyin Village during the war, or from the perspective of today's battle in which he caused great trouble in Yunyin, they must definitely exclude Lu Li.
But that's not the case now. Lu Li still has value to them, so they can make a deal for a short period of time.
Once the threat from the Xiao organization disappears, they will naturally consider how to deal with Lu Li.
…………
After leaving Yunyin Village, Lu Li shuttled through the dense forests of Naruto World.
His initial stay in this world was the same as that of One Piece, three months. Breaking out of Cloud Hidden Village was just the beginning. If he wanted to make more profits in this world, he had to find a suitable incision.
First, he needs to find a place to stay and collect specific information about this era.
It is difficult to understand the details of a world just by reading comics, especially now that this world has been visited by explorers, and the plot may have changed.
The next day, Lu Li arrived at the border of the Kingdom of Thunder and rested in a teahouse at the foot of the mountain.
"Hey, have you heard about it? The natural disaster in the Third Ninja World War is not dead yet. He was caught and hidden by Kumogakure before, but for some reason, he escaped and made a big fuss in Kumogakure. Village, even broke one of Raikage's legs!"
"Real or fake? A natural disaster? Isn't that Konoha's war hero?"
"I heard he was dead a long time ago? But he's still alive? Was he captured by Raikage-sama?"
"I heard he was captured eight years ago and secretly imprisoned. Konoha had already determined that he was dead, but now he's out again. Hey, it's going to be a blast."
"What's the blast? He's been imprisoned by our Kumogakure for so many years. He must hate us to death. I heard he's an executioner who kills anyone he sees. Don't run into him."
"Hiss, you really said that. I suddenly felt a chill down my spine."
"What does the blast look like?"
"I heard he looks handsome. I've seen the wanted poster. He looks like the guy sitting in the corner."
"Wait... Could it be... that's him?"
"..."
Lu Li sat there, only to feel the discussion around him gradually quieten down, and finally everyone in the teahouse ran away.
He didn't care. Unlike the world of One Piece, being wanted in Naruto was not a good thing. There were real people who would claim the bounty of the wanted order.
In a sense, the bounty offered by the Raikage was a help to him. It was good for his reputation and could attract the bounty hunters he was waiting for.
Swish --
Just as Lu Li finished his tea, left the teahouse with a golden bean, and walked to the forest path, a figure walked out from behind the trees. It was a member of the Kumogakure Anbu.
Lu Li did not attack the Anbu, because he felt that Kumogakure was not a fool. The Raikage couldn't handle him, so it was impossible for him to send an Anbu to chase him.
"Natural Disaster, please don't attack. I'm here to pass on a message for Lord Raikage."
The Anbu's face under the mask was sweating, and he was extremely nervous, because he knew that it would only take a moment for Lu Li to kill him.
The Raikage had people use secret techniques to track Lu Li's whereabouts and send a message, but he also sent out the Anbu, in order to cast a wide net and contact Lu Li before Lu Li left the Land of Thunder.
"Raikage? Is your leg okay?"
Lu Li asked with a smile.
"Lord Raikage is fine, this is his letter."
The Anbu stepped forward and handed the letter written by his subordinate to Lu Li.
After Lu Li took it and glanced at it, his smile became even bigger. Sure enough, his guess was right. This kind of open world should be played like this.
The content of the letter was very simple. The Raikage said that he accepted Lu Li's request and could give Lu Li the secret technique of the Lightning Chakra Mode, and he could even help get other secret techniques in the village.
The premise is that Lu Li can join the Akatsuki organization and be the insider of the Hidden Cloud Village, provide the Hidden Cloud Village with information about the Akatsuki organization at any time, and try to influence the military actions of the Akatsuki organization when necessary to create benefits for the Hidden Cloud Village.
As long as Lu Li can achieve "results" and provide effective information, Yunyin will give Lu Li a secret technique. According to the importance of the information provided by Lu Li, the Lightning Chakra Mode is not impossible to give him.
After reading the letter, Lu Li received a prompt from the End Space, indicating that he had triggered a hidden mission.
[Hidden Mission: Cloud Undercover]
Mission content: Join the Akatsuki organization as an undercover agent on behalf of the Cloud Hidden Village, and help the Cloud Hidden Village to find out the information of the Akatsuki organization.
Mission difficulty: Easy ~ Must die
Mission rewards: Different Cloud Hidden Secret Technique rewards can be obtained according to the interests fought for the Cloud Hidden Village. The rewards obtained through the mission can be taken out of this world without certification.
Failure penalty: None
[Hint: This task can be completed repeatedly before the relationship with the Hidden Cloud Village is severed]
Lu Li's fingertips flashed with lightning, and he ignited the letter and destroyed its contents. "This time I do mean to trade seriously, but my sincerity is still not enough. Go back and tell him that I want a deposit."
The Anbu was relieved to see Lu Li agreed for the time being, and took out another talisman-like thing from the ninja bag with a black thunder pattern on it, "Use this talisman to get in touch with Lord Raikage, please keep it well."
After receiving it, Lu Li took a look and found that it was actually a legendary communication prop. It can only be said that the technological development of this world is really strange. Now there is not even a phone, and it is necessary to use secret techniques to make this kind of sound transmission sound with many restrictions.
The principle of this sound transmission sound should be to use electricity to release electromagnetic waves to resonate with another talisman. It is an advanced communication method that only the Hidden Cloud Village can use, and most other ninja villages cannot do it.
Compared with the current communication technology in the Naruto world, the communication talisman in his hand is considered advanced, after all, Konoha still uses pigeons and the like.
If he goes undercover in the Akatsuki organization and uses pigeons to send messages, he will definitely be discovered by Black and White Zetsu and die without a burial place.
After the Anbu left, Lu Li also walked towards the border of the Land of Thunder and soon crossed the border. From then on, his adventure officially began.
He was willing to take on the task of the Raikage not only for the benefits of the secret technique. The Thunder Release Chakra mode is very good, but he doesn't have to have it. He can also research similar things by slowly developing the Thunder God Fruit.
He took on the other party's task just to make some extra income, because he was originally going to join the Akatsuki organization.
Even if the Raikage didn't ask, he would go, after all, there are many good things in the Akatsuki organization. He couldn't think of the Samsara Eye for the time being, but he should still have a chance to find a way to get some Hashirama cells.
Lu Li believed that the immortal bodies in this world could be considered a kind of bloodline, as could the Samsara Eye and the Sharingan. He currently had one available bloodline slot, and if there was a chance, he would consider getting some good bloodlines in this world to use first.
When fighting with the Raikage before, Lu Li realized that his dynamic reflex nerves, which he had always been confident of, would not be able to keep up with the opponent's speed one day, so he felt that it was necessary to improve his eyesight.
He was not interested in fancy pupil techniques, but it was undeniable that advanced eyes could give him more outstanding insight, which was definitely very helpful in battle.
In addition, there was another benefit of joining the Akatsuki organization. After a day of intelligence gathering, Lu Li found that the Akatsuki organization was much more active than in the original work.
This means that they are likely to collect the tailed beasts in advance. His Soul Eater Ring needs to absorb various different energies to upgrade quickly. It is too slow to feed lightning alone.
Although the nine tailed beasts are of the same origin, the energy properties seem to be very different. Lu Li thinks that if each tailed beast is sucked by his Soul Eater, maybe he can grow this ring to the dark gold level in this world!
