Chapter 43 How can such a person become a rich man

A transaction scene reminiscent of a Japanese gangster movie slowly unfolds.

On one side of the square are the conservative gangsters dressed in traditional attire, in yukatas, haori, and slicked-back hair without bangs. Their every move and gesture vaguely reflects the spirit of Mr. Lafayette, who says, "I want all the foreigners dead."

On the other side are the reformist gangsters in suits and sunglasses, shirts, jackets, and afros shaped like Japanese dog-ear hats. Their every word and action reveal their rebellious punk spirit of "burning the city of liquid to ashes."

"The person is right here." Cardo turned his head and signaled the shadow clone standing behind "Zhuoli".

"Yeah." "Rizu" winked at the "follower" beside him.

The latter cooperated very well and lifted the suitcase, facing the other party with highly professional gestures, and opened it with a click, revealing that it was filled with neatly stacked Fire Nation banknotes.

After showing it for three seconds, it closed with a click.

"Mr. Cardo, this is a small gift from the head of our Hyuga clan. It also includes condolences to your employees. I hope you can accept it." The "follower" stated neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"Lord Rizu is really generous. I'll accept it with pleasure. I'll accept it with pleasure. Hehehe..." Every line of Cardo's dialogue is lowering the value of the title of "world-class rich man".

"Believe in our sincerity, Mr. Cardo has seen it; however, we don't seem to see your sincerity." The "Follower"'s demeanor changed, and veins appeared on both sides of his forehead, as if he had rolled his eyes.

In fact, it is a special skill added by the transformation technique.

"Wait, Lord Rizu, what do you mean?" Cardo took a step back in fear, "What do you mean I'm not sincere?"

Oh no, this follower looks quite powerful, and the oppressive feeling he gives people is just as strong as Zabuza.

If a conflict arises, with only two jonin on the other side, the two hundred men on our side may not be enough to defeat them.

Veins also slightly appeared on both sides of Rizu's forehead. After pretending to check, he closed his eyes and sighed, "Mr. Cardo, it's good to be cautious. I don't mind you setting an ambush around. But why did you bring a clone of Luo Yi out to see me? Can I assume that you are "colluding" with each other?"

"Shadow clone? No, what about "collusion"? Isn't this person a guest of your Hyuga?" Cardo couldn't figure out these big doubts.

What's even more terrible is that after listening to what "Rizu" said, the shadow clone turned around and gave Cardo a wicked smile, "Hey, Mr. Cardo, I didn't fool him. It's up to you from now on."

"boom--"

Then it turned into a puff of smoke and disappeared!

Cardo's eyes were almost popping out of his sunglasses. Ever since Zhuoli claimed that he secretly knocked this kid unconscious and brought him back when he left Zabuza's house, he has never stopped monitoring "Luo Yi".

So when and how did he escape? Was it when he went to the toilet after dinner?

Since the shadow clone can really eat, defecate and sleep, Cardo assumes that "Luo Yi" was still the original body until dinner ended an hour ago.

After the shadow clone disappeared, through the shadow clone's memories, Luo Yi finally understood Cardo's so-called plan, which was so stupid that it almost made him laugh.

That is, after the shadow clone "woke up", she told him that he was kidnapped by nearby pirates and that it was the employees and bodyguards of the shipping company who rescued him. In order to save her, a samurai bodyguard was even seriously injured and died.

It was exactly the same statement that was used to deceive the Hokage and Hiashi, trying to fool the "unconscious" Shadow Clone as well.

As for how to cheat, it all depends on one's mouth and some tattered equipment discarded by some bodyguard. By smearing some blood on it, it becomes "the relic of a brave warrior" and serves as evidence to increase the persuasiveness.

I wonder what the bodyguard who donated his equipment and “sacrificed his life heroically” would think if he knew this.

Oh, so it's from Zhuoli? That's fine.

In order to commend him for his achievement in capturing "Luo Yi", Cardo gave him a better samurai sword.

The fake knife made from the wooden stick can be thrown away, and Zhuoli's yin and yang clone even got a newer knife than the one on his original wrist.

So the current situation has become that "Rizu" came with a thank-you fee and consolation money to ask for the person, but the person disappeared in front of Cardo, and before disappearing he almost made it clear to the other party that he had intentionally deceived him.

"Please wait a moment, Lord Rizu, there must be some misunderstanding!" Yankang's opponent seemed to be on the verge of anger. Cardo took another step back, sweat pouring down his forehead.

"Misunderstanding? Well, I hope you can give me a proper explanation." "Rizu" expressed a patient but limited attitude.

"Thank you! Uh... before that, I want to confirm the relationship between that Luo Yi and you?" Cardo rubbed his hands nervously.

From being suspected guests to suspecting that they are in collusion, the relationship between Rizu and Luoyi is probably not simple.

"Okay. But I can only say that the boy was indeed a guest of the Hyuga family at the beginning, but he let us down, so I'm looking for him now, just to teach him a lesson in person. Are you satisfied with this explanation, Mr. Cardo?" "Hiashi" made his words as vague as possible.

I originally thought that Cardo could at least find out that Luo Yi was the future son-in-law of the Hyuga family, so that he could use the excuse that "that kid let the Hyuga family down."

"Well... it can be seen that this is a very cunning boy. He used unorthodox ninjutsu to deceive us and wanted to disrupt the good relationship between us." Cardo naturally believed the other party's words.

Because the strong don't need to make excuses, let alone excuses like those that expose one's own dirty laundry.

Just like Cardo, to execute a townsman's hero in front of the entire town, all one needs to do is to make up a trumped-up crime.

"Good relationship? Mr. Cardo, you asked me to come all the way from Konoha, and you brought "sincerity", but I didn't feel your "sincerity". If you want to establish a good relationship, reciprocity is the minimum, right?" "Hiashi" spoke in a calm tone, with an indifferent expression, and he was intimidating without being angry.

"This... Mr. Rizu is right. I wonder if there is anything we can do for you..." Cardo trembled.

I really don't know what's going on in this guy's train of thought. In the original work, he provoked the injured Zabuza, and then had his bones broken by Haku; here he threatens Konoha and Hyuga openly and secretly, and now we know what kind of big-name character he has summoned.

Is it possible that there is an IQ threshold for the wealthy in the Naruto world, and the limit is an upper limit? For example, those with an IQ of more than half that of Shikamaru are not allowed?

"Rizu" winked at his "follower" again, and the latter patted the bottom of the suitcase in understanding.

Then with a "bang", the suitcase turned into a talisman slightly larger than an adult's palm, with the local word "money" written in the center.

"As you can see, Mr. Cardo, our Hyuga clan is good at sealing techniques, and we will not fail to express this "sincerity." "Hiashi" took the talisman and flew forward, "But I hope you understand that for me, compared to finding Luo Yi, this "sincerity" is nothing to me."

Zhuoli took the talisman very tacitly and handed it to Cardo.

"Hey... Hey!" It seemed that for the first time in his life, Cardo felt that money was such a hot potato, and he tremblingly pinched the talisman.

"Since you have accepted my "sincerity", I hope to see your "sincerity" in the next three days. Please don't let me down."

"What kind of "sincerity" do you want, Lord Hiashi?"

"It's very simple. That guy used the Shadow Clone Technique. This ninjutsu has a distance limit, which means his real body is indeed on this island. Mr. Cardo, since you are the actual manager here, it shouldn't be difficult to help me find someone, right?"

"It's not difficult, it's not difficult, please rest assured, Mr. Rizu!"

"Very good, when you bring Luo Yi to me, my followers will unseal the "sincerity" sealed in the talisman. By the way, in the meantime, my followers need you to entertain them."

"Hey? Hey!"

The Hyuga family's attendant stepped forward and explained, "The sealing technique also has a distance limit. As the caster, if I move too far away from the talisman, the talisman will automatically burn. The Hyuga clan is sincere, but that doesn't mean we will accept being fooled, don't you think, Mr. Cardo?"

"Ah...ah, I'm sorry for the poor service...please come this way."

Cardo really didn't want to have a giant Buddha sitting under his nose. It looked like it was not a Bodhisattva but an Asura.

Just now, he was racking his brains to think of how to refuse the Hyuga family's "sincerity" until the talisman fell into his hands.

This feeling of having half of the huge sum of money in my pocket...

Hard to refuse.
