Chapter 162 Five Escape Clone, my life is worth more than 80 million taels

It's really ridiculous, he was actually rescued.

This was the first thought that popped up in Kakuzu's mind, and naturally it began to extend downward along this thought.

Ridiculous? Why is it ridiculous?

Is he laughing at the kid who saved him, or is he laughing at himself for being rescued?

Or, are both of these a ridiculous thing for him?

After all, he abandoned everything from the day he defected, and only money was left as his pillar of support. He decided never to release his kindness to others again, and was determined not to believe in the kindness from others.

His ending should be to be alone for life, walking on the road of killing with only money by his side, until he failed and was killed quietly, as long as he faced death calmly and was finally forgotten by the world.

Killing countless people, and finally being killed?

Kakuzu frowned and pondered to himself, but shook his head after asking himself.

No, no, no.

It would be better to raise his bounty, and then be killed by others in exchange for the bounty. The higher the bounty, the more he can prove his value.

This is his destiny and future.

And this established destiny and future was broken.

I was rescued by a little devil for no reason, so I feel ridiculous about it?

"Yes, that's right, that's it." Kakuzu nodded, his brows relaxed slightly, but soon frowned again.

Why did this little devil save him?

Thinking of this, Kakuzu subconsciously touched his waist. The scroll where he sealed the bounty was still there and had not been taken away.

So, why?

In his mind, one doubt was solved, and another doubt appeared. All kinds of messy thoughts were like boiling water, "gurgling" constantly coming out from the depths of his brain, and he couldn't stop it at all.

Looking at Kakuzu standing there, shaking his head and nodding, Yunchuan's eyes gradually became strange. He looked at the thoughtful old researcher Leyou and said helplessly: "It seems that my 'blood' still has some side effects."

"The initial manifestation of the subject is... over-worrying and suspicious?"

Leyou touched his beard and smiled: "It's amazing. Only the brain and spleen are left, and it can still perform such complex behaviors."

"Unfortunately, I am not good at biological research, so I can't help you much."

Seeing Kakuzu thinking about himself endlessly, Yunchuan could only shake his head and interrupt his thoughts with [Blood Curse] control.

"Huh?"

Kakuzu was stunned for a moment and suddenly came back to his senses. He realized that he had just acted completely suicidal and absent-mindedly, and his light green vertical pupils shrank into a line.

In such an unfamiliar environment, how could he think so much just now?

Could it be because...

"Enough, Mr. Kakuzu."

Not giving Kakuzu the chance to be suspicious, Yunchuan interrupted him and said helplessly: "Feel your body and think about other things later."

Kakuzu also noticed his abnormality at this moment.

He could only suppress the doubts in his heart and feel his body with a frown.

The next moment, he suddenly widened his eyes and blurted out: "What is this?"

Kakuzu could feel the black lines in his body, almost filling every gap in his body, and had replaced the functions of various internal organs.

But he was not surprised by this, what really surprised him was the extra things in his body.

In addition to his earth-attributed heart, there was actually a blood-red brain.

He actually had a brain?

Since the "Earth Grudge" was implanted in his body, he had never seen an organ other than a heart, but now he actually had a "brain".

Although it was a weird-looking brain, Kakuzu could clearly feel that this was the source of the "vitality", which was twisted into a weird shape of the brain in order to adapt to his body.

Not only that...

Kakuzu looked at the black line extending from the front of him, and followed the black line to look at the figure standing next to Kumokawa.

No, that can no longer be called a "person", right?

Because the guy's arms turned into wings and gathered at his side, and the feet had turned into toes like hawks.

Four toes, three in front and one in the back, sharp as knives.

"You hurt your brain and can't even recognize yourself?"

When Kakuzu was shocked, the man's tone was full of compassion: "It's really pitiful, the original body."

Original body?

Kakuzu came back to his senses and saw that the black line between him and the man was connected, and the guy's face was actually somewhat similar to his own.

But looking at the face that was somewhat similar to his own, showing that kind of compassionate expression, it only made Kakuzu feel unusually inconsistent.

"Are you... the heart of the wind attribute?" Kakuzu's thoughts flowed, and a look of astonishment flashed in his eyes.

"That's right." Kumokawa shrugged and added, "You can also call it 'Feng Ai', at least that's what it calls itself."

-It.

Indeed, in Kakuzu's perception, the hawk-like self in front of him, who called himself "Feng Ai", did not have a brain in his body, just as Kumokawa said.

Or, did it share a brain with his "original body"?

"Woo." Fu Ai raised his wings to wipe away his tears and cried, "Your already poor brain and IQ are actually shared with me. Maybe there will be three more in the future. What a touching friendship."

Hearing this, Kakuzu frowned, but he was not annoyed, but confused.

What he was confused about was that he did not feel "annoyed".

In the past, if someone insulted him like this, he would definitely feel angry even if he had weak emotions.

But now, he only felt confused.

"What did you do to me?" Kakuzu asked, looking at Kumokawa with a smile on his face.

"Of course I saved you and gave you some strength, but there were just a few side effects."

Yun Chuan leaned against the wall with his chest in his arms, extended his thumb and index finger together, made a "little bit" gesture, and said with a smile: "Thunder, fire, earth, wind, and water, these five hearts represent respectively Anger, joy, sadness, fear.”

"Except for your own earth attribute heart, the other four hearts can be split into independent individuals. Their personalities are biased towards the emotions they represent, just like the 'worry' of your body and the 'sorrow' of the wind attribute clone over there. '."

This is the fifth escape clone?

Sounds good?

If there were four immortal clones, wouldn't it be possible to take on five tasks at the same time, and the efficiency of making money would be directly increased by five times?

While thinking about it like this, Kakuzu seemed to have thought of something and frowned subconsciously.

"don’t worry."

Before he could speak, Yunchuan, who saw what he was thinking, interrupted with a smile: "You are still the original body, and you still have control over the heart clones of other attributes. Also, you only have earth and wind attributes. You lack the three hearts of thunder, fire, and water, so as a body, you are emotionally disabled."

"As long as you gather five suitable hearts, your emotions will be 'complete'."

At this point, Yun Chuan raised his chin and said meaningfully: "Warm reminder, these five hearts have different special abilities. If you gather five of them, you may have different surprises."

Kakuzu's heart moved, as if he felt something, he raised his fist in front of his eyes.

Kaka! Kaka!

The thick gray rocks gradually climbed up the arms from the palms, and one could feel the unparalleled power flowing through the arms.

"Earth Release·Earth Spear?" Kakuzu blurted out in surprise.

"No, it's the Vampire Technique." Yunchuan corrected him, "Although it looks a bit similar, you should be able to feel that this is completely different from the feeling you had when you used the 'Earth Release and Earth Spear' before."

Although Earth Release·Earth Spear sounds like a long-range offensive ninjutsu, it actually uses the earth attribute chakra flowing in the body to activate instantly, hardening a part of the body like a rock, integrating offense and defense.

Kakuzu later used this ninjutsu to easily knock down the gate of the Fire Temple containing the barrier technique.

But in the final analysis, it is just covering the body with hardened earth escape.

And the "blood ghost technique" he is using now...

Kakuzu looked down at the ground under his feet, feeling that his connection with the earth had deepened, as if he just had to lift his foot and stomp...

"Don't try it here."

Just when Kakuzu subconsciously raised his feet thoughtfully, Kumokawa, who noticed what he was thinking, suddenly interrupted him.

Kakuzu's downward stepping foot suddenly stopped, even one step ahead of his reaction, as if his body had received a supreme order.

Realizing this, Kakuzu ignored the stupid bird and said, "Body, don't you ask about my abilities?" "Sure enough, no one cares about me anymore, right?" He complained about himself and looked at Yumukawa's mind. I have many thoughts.

After thinking for a moment, he glanced around and found that he was in an empty, confined space. Everything was pure white, and there was a faint smell of burning in the air.

"Where am I?" Kakuzu asked expressionlessly, "What restrictions did you put on my body?"

He could feel the black line in his body changing. Although he could still obey his orders as before, the "highest command" was not in his hands.

But in the hands of the kid in front of me.

In other words, it is under the control of the bloody "brain", and that bloody "brain" is some kind of creation derived from the kid in front of him.

As an immortal who has lived for nearly a hundred years, this is the first time Kakuzu has seen such bizarre things and things, and he is simply puzzled.

If he had any other emotions right now, the ones he could feel must be fear and anger.

"You are in Yangyan Village now. You are just borrowing the research room. There are no 'restrictions' or anything like that. I just gave you my 'blood'."

Yunchuan waved his hand, denying his "restriction" statement, and said with a smile: "In other words, this is just a little insurance provided by the creditor to ensure that the debtor can repay the debt in time."

"...Credit? Debtor?"

Hearing these two words, Kakuzu instinctively felt uncomfortable and frowned immediately.

"If I remember correctly, Mr. Kakuzu, your life is worth eighty million taels."

Yun Chuan stretched out his finger, tapped him gently, and said in a calm tone: "In that case, I, who saved you, should have no problem saying that I am your creditor, right?"

"...I didn't ask you to save me." Kakuzu said after being silent for a long time.

Kumokawa was noncommittal to his answer, and just smiled and continued to ask: "So, Mr. Kakuzu, do you think that his life is not worth even 80 million taels?"

He had a very good feel for Kakuzu's character, and he was always using words to induce him.

For Jiaodu, who is obsessed with money and likes to use money to evaluate value, no matter how much life-saving kindness is offered, it is better to tie it up in the way he most believes in.

What's more, the template ability [Speaker Talent] of [Montana Max [Major]] has a strong language appeal, which is equivalent to giving Kakuzu, who is now emotionally deprived, a debuff that reduces his intelligence, enough to lead his thoughts astray.

Sure enough, after hearing what Kumokawa said, Kakuzu fell silent again.

"... Kid, I admit that you are right, but you seem to underestimate me a little."

After a moment, he raised his head, took a deep look at Kumokawa, and said in a muffled voice: "My life is worth more than 80 million taels."

"Oh?" The effect seemed unexpectedly good, making Kumokawa raise his eyebrows.

"I earn 80 million bounties a year." Facing the money he was most familiar with and trusted, Kakuzu raised his head and said proudly: "I have been a bounty ninja for 20 years, and during this period I have earned a total of 1.6 billion taels."

"Even if it is a debt for you to save my life, giving you all these 1.6 billion taels should be enough to repay it, right?"

Although he said that he would give him all the money he had, there was no trace of heartache on Kakuzu's face.

On the one hand, it was because what he valued most was not money, but the process of earning money, the feeling of exchanging corpses for bounties, the process of counting money one by one, and the heavy feeling of carrying a cash box.

Although paying off this "debt" would spend all the bounties he had worked hard for 20 years, compared to the feeling of losing those useless bills, owing debts, especially owing favors, was undoubtedly a more disgusting thing for Kakuzu.

Talking about money does hurt feelings, but talking about feelings also hurts money.

He couldn't count how many guys he had killed who didn't follow the rules and wanted to get something for free.

Thinking of this, Kakuzu seemed to have thought of something, and reluctantly said in a low voice: "But of the 1.6 billion, I have spent part of it on food, clothing, housing and other expenses in the past 20 years, about 300 to 400 million. I will pay you back as soon as possible in the future."

"Of course I believe in Mr. Kakuzu's credibility." Kumokawa's smile remained unchanged, "But can you give me an accurate time?"

Kakuzu went through the recent tasks in his mind, and found that they were either beyond his ability or only some small fish and shrimps, so he couldn't help but frowned.

Thinking for a moment, he looked up at Kumokawa, whose eyes were smiling but deep, and said helplessly: "I have a task to explore the Rain Country in my hand. After completing this task, there will be a higher bounty later. At that time..."

But after hearing what Kakuzu said, Kumokawa's expression became weird.

Explore the Rain Country?

The things about the Hidden Rain Village and Hanzo have long been placed on the table of the Five Kage, right?

In this case, the target of the mission is probably not the Hidden Rain Village and Hanzo, but...

"The Dawn in the northern part of the Rain Country?"

Hearing the words coming out of Kumokawa's mouth, Kakuzu was obviously stunned for a moment, and looked at Kumokawa's somewhat familiar face.

Blue eyes, a sense of maturity that does not match his age, and a smile at any time. Although he did not bring the black cat, there is no doubt that he is one of the targets mentioned in the mission.

"...I see, no wonder I always felt that you looked familiar."

A trace of solemnity flashed across his eyes, and he said in a deep tone: "I thought you were the guy who was bountyed. So you are the leader of the Dawn?"

"The guy who solved the former leader of the Hidden Rain Village, Musashi, and after cooperating with Hanzo to drive out the Sand Village, divided the river and ruled it, and the river water did not interfere with the river water?"
