Chapter 258 Arrival at the roots
Chapter 263 Arrival at the roots
Grass Ninja Village.
Kakuzu is looking at the latest report.
He frowned at the lines on it that had recently slipped.
He looked at the young man not far away and asked in a deep voice.
"Mr. Cardo, why has there been less money recently?"
The young Kado rubbed his hands. He did not expect that he would also receive such attention.
Now he has become one of Kakuzu's staff.
He is Kakuzu's right-hand man and controls the financial direction of the entire Kusanagi Village.
Hearing Kakuzu's question, he immediately stood up straight.
If it were before, he would definitely not be like this. After all, ninjas were just that in his eyes.
Pay money to kill people.
But he had seen Kakuzu killing people.
Completely changed my mind.
That was the power that could destroy a country, and he still had lingering fears.
I never thought that ninjas could be so powerful.
It overturned his previous understanding.
He didn't dare to hide anything.
"Kakuzu-sama, the people who can exchange ninjutsu have basically finished all the exchanges. The four major ninja villages haven't had many transactions with us recently. They are all traded in the grass ninja village market, and we collect part of the tax. "
Cardo had never heard of ninjas collecting taxes. It was originally a matter for the nobles.
But even so, this place has become a paradise for wandering ninjas.
"That is to say, the bulk of it now is tax revenue."
Seeing Kado nodded.
Kakuzu frowned, and he also realized that ninjutsu is a one-time transaction, while taxation is a long-lasting transaction.
"Can I adjust the taxes?"
Since taxes can be collected continuously, a little bit of collection cannot be as fast as making money every day by trading ninjutsu.
Cardo waved his hand quickly: "Sir, this tax cannot be raised randomly, otherwise it will have a great impact."
He knew that those who could survive in the city of angels, Cao Ninja Village, were those whose strength should not be underestimated.
Their strength is second, but the key is that they are all inextricably linked to Qian Jun.
If taxes were raised, they would definitely find ways to reduce Qian Jun's offerings.
Conflicts may even arise.
Then business will be bad.
Kakuzu sighed helplessly. He was also dazzled by the amount of ninjutsu transactions.
"The only thing missing is that Konoha hasn't made a deal yet."
Kakuzu thought for a moment.
"They must be very rich."
After all, he is the leader of the five great ninja villages.
Aburame Shiguro was wearing airtight armor and walking on the street of Kusanagi Village with two root staff.
"Are they all ordinary people?"
Aburame Shiguro raised her finger, and the nano poisonous insect flew to her hand, and the people around her didn't notice it at all.
He scouted out all the people around him, and they were basically ordinary people and many wandering ninjas.
"This village is so strange."
The root staff behind him spoke out.
"Don't you think there's one thing that's even weirder?"
Another ninja spoke up.
Aburame Shiguro and the other root ninja looked at him at the same time.
"What?"
This is a bald man with a strong build, but his eyes have dark circles.
"Why do we not get any information in such a chaotic place?"
This made the other Aburame Shiguro and the other ninja frown.
really.
In such a chaotic village like this, the intelligence should not be blocked too tightly.
They just can't do it.
They all enter with the flow of people, and there are no one knows how many people come and go in a day.
But they didn't get much information from their roots.
Aburame Shiguro's heart felt a little heavy. The information they had about Kusanagi Village seemed to be obtained from spies in other villages.
Why can't I get it here?
"I suspect there are ninjas here who can manipulate people's minds."
The conclusion drawn by the strong ninja.
"Is it similar to the Mountain Clan?"
Aburame Shiguro was lost in thought, but when did the other party activate the ninjutsu?
He felt wrong.
But I can't think of anything wrong at all.
"Captain Shiguro, do we want to wipe out everyone here?"
The ninja next to him asked.
Aburame Shiguro nodded.
"After all, the news of destroying a village cannot be leaked, otherwise it will alert other villages."
The root members are never left alive.
There are already a large number of members ambushing outside.
"Now collect enemy intelligence as soon as possible and launch a surprise attack at night."
Aburame Shiguro gave the order.
Originally, he wanted to postpone the general attack for two more days, and he needed to collect the ninjutsu information of the leader of the Grass Ninja Village first.
But ever since he entered the Grass Ninja Village, he felt uneasy inside.
He turned to look at the two ninjas behind him who had no emotion in their eyes. This was the true ninja who would never be dominated by emotions.
"Disperse!"
The three of them disappeared at the same time.
Start collecting information throughout the Kusakunin Village.
Kakuzu was still looking at the financial statements.
Looking at this data every day, he can feel the money flowing into his pocket.
Unfortunately, most of them have to be turned in.
"Hey." Kakuzu sighed.
I don't know how many days I wanted to kill Uchiha Jin.
If he couldn't beat him, he would really want to take all the money.
"You seem to be thinking of something bad."
A voice sounded faintly behind him, making Kakuzu startled. He turned around and saw Jin appearing behind him at some unknown time.
"How did you come?"
Kakuzu's voice was calm. This guy really didn't say anything at all. He just muttered in his heart twice before appearing.
Jin made a "cut" sound, and when he looked at the corner, he was feeling guilty. The more guilty this guy was, the calmer his voice would be.
If you haven't been together for a long time, it would be difficult to tell them apart.
"Am I here to remind you that the Konoha ninjas have arrived?"
Jin had already received news of the ANBU personnel's arrival, so he naturally came over to take a look at the excitement.
"Did I send you here?"
Kakuzu looked at Jin.
"How can it be."
Kim shrugged.
"My current status in Konoha is not ordinary. Even the Hokage does not have such great power to mobilize me."
"Then who did they send to trade?"
"trade?"
Jin sneered, Danzo didn't come here just for business.
Of course, there is also some of his factors in this, if he hadn't deliberately blocked the news.
Danzo must know better.
He may not dare to do this.
"He's here to destroy the Grass Ninja Village, steal your money, and steal your ninjutsu."
"boom!"
Kakuzu smashed the table in front of him with a slap, his face turned grim.
"I think he is looking for death."
Anyone who dares to give him money will fight him to the death.
Jin looked at Kakuzu playfully, the ninja coming this time was no ordinary ninja.
Kakuzu has the potential to capsize.
night.
The entire Grass Ninja Village was still bright.
at this time.
A square barrier quickly surrounded the entire Grass Ninja Village.
"Leave no one behind!"
Aburame Shiguro was the first to rush into the Grass Ninja Village.
The raid begins.
