"Do you have a hundred million?"
The ninja looked at the book, then threw away the corpse in his hand like a rag and asked the man who called himself "Hawkeye".
The man was dumbfounded.
If he had a hundred million, would he still be sitting here talking to everyone?
But seeing that the man was about to answer "no", the corpse on the ground was his example.
"I … I …"
"If you don't have money, then you can't buy your own life."
After Kakuzu finished speaking, he exerted his strength and directly crushed his throat.
Gulp ~
Everyone swallowed at the same time, and a few quietly moved towards the door, but with a sneer, they all stopped and didn't dare to take half a step forward.
Terrifying murderous intent!
"Who issued this wanted poster?"
Kakuzu said coldly.
"Guest, these two are just posters, not real wanted posters. The reason why they are posted is that this manga called One Piece is based on pirates, so they are posted at the door."
A young man came out from behind the counter. He was so scared that his face was pale, but he still had the courage to explain.
Kakuzu fell into deep thought.
This tavern didn't seem to be able to afford a hundred million, so he couldn't find anyone to extort money from.
Manga … is this thing in his hand?
He glanced at it and then frowned. He didn't see these things when he came to the country of Kawa. Where did they come from?
"Sir, the reason why Chao Chuan Town changed so much is because of this manga. If you're interested, you can sit down and read it while drinking. Today's drinks are on me."
Akabane stood up.
If Kakuzu really destroyed this place, he would have to find a bunch of suitable subordinates. Moreover, the person in charge of this tavern knew how to adapt to local conditions. He was a talented person, and it would be a pity if he died at Kakuzu's hands.
Kakuzu didn't care at first, but when Akabane came closer, he suddenly felt a sense of threat.
He's a master!
He carefully looked at Akabane. There was a sword at his waist. Although he wasn't wearing a forehead protector, his style was more like the style of the Mist.
He could feel that the other party's Chakra was very strong, and it made him feel very uneasy.
"Sir, the wine … You don't have to pay for it. Our restaurant will pay for everyone's wine today."
The young boy moved closer and appeared even more nervous.
But even though he was nervous and afraid, he didn't shrink back. He stood in front of Kakuzu and Akabane to talk.
"Not bad. Are you new here?"
Akabane admired him more and more.
What a courageous young man.
With a little bit of training, not to mention his strength, he would definitely have no problem running the restaurant and the territory here.
"You are?"
The boy was a little confused. He had been here for more than a month, but he had never seen this ninja in front of him.
"Get the most powerful person here to see me."
Akabane said indifferently and then sat down directly opposite Kakuzu.
Kakuzu's fingers twitched as he forcefully suppressed his desire to attack.
Suppressing his killing intent, there was still room for discussion.
Akabane understood and took the bottle. He poured himself a glass and whispered, "We're all doing this for money and survival. Now that Wood Leaf and Sand Ninja have placed a lot of people in Chao Chuan, it's not good for anyone to make a big deal out of it."
Half of it was advice, half of it was a threat.
If Akabane wasn't strong enough, Kakuzu would've killed him directly. But this ominous and dangerous feeling …
Forget it, I'm here to make money, so I won't bother with him.
Kakuzu snorted and picked up the manga.
The boy was very sensible and immediately gave Kakuzu a full set of One Piece manga for him to read and enjoy.
The rest of the people saw that Kakuzu was no longer attacking, so they were relieved and quickly left the restaurant.
Therefore, although the restaurant was free, in fact, there were only two guests in the restaurant, Akabane and Kakuzu.
"Pirates? Oh, what a bullshit. "
The corner of his mouth was flipped open, and he immediately sneered.
Waterfall Village was adjacent to the Frost Country, and the sea was to the north. So, he had seen some pirates, but they had no strength. They were all wandering Samurai and Ninja.
Just like the people on the streets of Chao Chuan.
He turned a few pages and gradually became a little interested. Although it seemed a little boring, it was a good thing to pass the time.
It didn't take long for him to finish the first volume.
The plot was good, and it seemed to be quite popular in Chao Chuan. The seller probably made a lot of money.
Kakuzu had some ideas in his heart.
Before he could speak, Akabane whispered, "I've heard of you. You're the most talented Ninja in Waterfall Village, and you're quite strong. I don't know if you're interested in cooperating with me."
"Oh, cooperation?"
Kakuzu didn't directly answer, but picked up the second volume and continued to read.
He wasn't stupid.
On the contrary, to be able to survive time after time, Kakuzu was very cautious and smart. Otherwise, he wouldn't have forcibly suppressed his killing intent and followed Akabane's words.
"How do you feel after reading this manga?"
"Not bad, no wonder there are so many stupid wandering Samurai."
Kakuzu answered faintly.
The increase of wandering Samurai obviously has something to do with this manga. This can be seen from the popularity of Zoro and Mihawk.
Akabane nodded slightly and said, "It was transported by a caravan from the Land of Fire, but they're not selling it now. Instead, they gave it to us for free and let us put it in the pub for free. I think they'll definitely sell it in the future, and at that time …"
"Selling books for others? Hmph, stupid idea. "
Kakuzu sneered and disdained this plan.
He was alone, and he didn't need an organization or a base. How could this method of doing business be as fast as hunting for high-priced orders in the black market?
Akabane smiled and said, "Selling books for others is just a process. When we're strong enough, we can annex the other forces in Chao Chuan and let the manga of Chao Chuan be under our control. After that, we'll take over the entire Land of Chao Chuan."
"…"
Kakuzu finished reading half of the volume, and when he heard this, he paused.
He was calculating the account.
If it was a country, the profit would be good, but the profit of cooperation didn't seem so high.
After all, with such a large scale, there must be subordinates, so it was better to divide the profits.
Akabane wasn't in a hurry to throw chips, so he waited for Kakuzu to continue reading.
One volume, one volume …
After reading five volumes, Kakuzu was lost in thought.
He hadn't come into contact with this kind of manga, but from the popularity of Chao Chuan, there was definitely a business opportunity.
"Our business isn't necessarily limited to the Land of Chao. As far as I know, the surrounding countries all buy from the Land of Chao, so the profit won't be small."
Akabane continued to throw chips.
Whether it was him or Orochi Maru, it was impossible for them to stay in the Land of Chao. If they could recruit Kakuzu as a partner, they wouldn't have to worry about the business here.
After all, the Akatsuki was such a large organization, and the money was controlled by Kakuzu. It could be seen that although this guy was greedy, he was quite sensitive about money.
The only thing to worry about was that there was a high chance that Kakuzu would betray them.
This guy was really greedy for money, but Akabane really didn't care about money, as long as he didn't take the Land of Chao as his own.
If he dared to do so, Akabane wouldn't hesitate to act. People in the dark always had more advantages than those in the light, and he was that person in the dark.
Kakuzu was lost in thought.
He loved money, but he didn't want to be under others, but it didn't seem to matter if it was just a cooperation.
"I'll think about it."
After thinking about it, Kakuzu didn't immediately agree, but his attitude wasn't too cold or tough, so there was still room for discussion.
Akabane nodded. He didn't expect to solve this matter at once, but he had to guard against this guy's sneak attack at night.
Kakuzu didn't have any integrity, and the two of them were afraid of each other, so even if they cooperated, they wouldn't be sincere.
A fight would probably be necessary …
Kakuzu drank another cup and then walked out of the tavern.
At this time, the boy and another ninja came out of the room.
The leader was the ninja who met Akabane and Orochi Maru before. Akabane slightly used his perception ability and noticed that there was a strange Chakra on the other side.
Orochi Maru's work?
Akabane carefully looked at him and noticed a lot of similar traces.
For example, there was a possibility of soft modification in his joints. It seemed that Orochi Maru had been strengthening these people.
Seeing Akabane's current appearance, the ninja immediately knelt down: "Sir, what instructions do you have for us this time?"
"Wood Leaf and Sand Crypsis Village may have a war in the Land of Chao. You are my subordinates that I have painstakingly trained. If you all die, I will be very troubled."
Akabane imitated Orochi Maru's tone and said lightly, then looked out of the door: "Recently, there will be more ninjas like that, so be a little more restrained."
"Sir, since you gave us the specific plan last time, we have been doing business obediently. None of our brothers went out to cause trouble."
He hurriedly explained.
Akabane had a headache.
It was Orochimaru again. That bastard had done so many things in secret. Chaochuan Town had basically turned into a pirate town.
The key was that he didn't expect that technical geek to cause trouble here, so he didn't exchange information, and he didn't even know his name.
Forget it …
He glanced behind him and hypnotized the boy at the same time.
With his current spiritual power, hypnotizing these small fries was a piece of cake. Soon, they spilled out all the information.
A few seconds later, he understood what he wanted to do and dispelled the hypnotic illusion.
The two didn't have any objections. Instead, they became even more respectful. Being able to hypnotize them without them knowing, such a powerful illusion, as expected of this Sir!
"I just confirmed that you did a good job, Nakagawa, but your strength is still a little lacking."
Akabane said lightly, then looked at the boy named Nakagawa.
Although the Manga Culture Tavern was created by a technical geek, Nakagawa was also excellent. Especially when facing a Renegade like Kakuzu, he still dared to stand up and speak. This was quite amazing.
"Sir, his name is …"
"Nakagawa Nakagawa, you are very good. Do you know Chakra?"
Nakagawa froze for a moment, then nodded with ecstasy.
Chakra, the power that only a ninja could have!
"Nakagawa, from today on, you will be responsible for teaching him how to condense Chakra. Also, prepare a room for me. I want to rest for a while. "
"Yes!"
Nakagawa was extremely respectful.
Meeting again, this Sir was even more powerful. No, perhaps it was because he had never seen Sir's true strength.
