From undercover in Konoha, to I am the Hokage!

Chapter 49 Sorry, I Lied to You

The night is getting darker.

The moisture accumulated nearby suddenly caused a drizzle to fall in a small area around it, soaking the dry stone floor.

The fighting on the streets showed no sign of stopping.

In the battle circle, the besieged Sawara Kiri shuttled between the two men's swords as flexibly as a butterfly flying through flowers, with an astonishing speed.

Those star-like blue pupils flashed across Kakuzu's field of vision like flowing light.

Faintly, low murmurs mixed into the sound of the wind.

Even though he had seen countless guys who claimed to be geniuses over a long period of time, Kakuzu still couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

This business was really a loss.

If this kid is allowed to grow a little more, maybe he could be worth 10 million, or even 20 million.

The bad intelligence not only put him in danger, but also forced him to cut off a cash cow that had not yet grown - and at such a ridiculous markup.

Compared to having to fight with the young man in front of him, or facing the crisis of Konoha's full-scale hunt at any time, the inexplicable loss of a large sum of money made it even more difficult for him to accept.

"Zheng——!"

The kunai and swords overlapped, and the harsh sound pierced the eardrums and pierced deep into people's minds.

This strange syllable made people slow down their movements.

Ok?
How could it be a beat slower?
Almost at the moment this thought arose, Kakuzu saw with his peripheral vision the kunai in Sawara Kiri's other hand, stabbing into his waist and abdomen in an extremely ruthless manner.

Oh, it turns out to be a sound illusion.

"puff."

The moment Kakuzu made this decision in his mind, the entire kunai was buried in his waist.

However, Sawara Kiri seemed to have noticed something with great surprise, and his body quickly moved back, withdrawing from the close combat circle.

At the same time, he looked at him with a vigilant look.

If it were an ordinary person, with his kidney exploded at this moment, he would probably wail loudly, not to mention being able to stand, and curl up on the ground unable to move.

However, Kakuzu still stood there.

The huge wound on the waist and abdomen was being quickly sutured with black silk thread and finally filled up completely.

"I thought it was a special clone."

"The result is immortality?"

There was a hint of just the right amount of solemnity in Sawara Kiri's eyes.

"How much money would it cost for a strong man like you to enter this deadly place of Konoha?"

"Fifty million? One hundred million?"

Hearing that Sahara Kiri had intentionally raised the price, Kakuzu's brows twitched uncontrollably, but he tried his best to suppress his anger and remain calm:

"I should be the one who is surprised."

"A young man like you who has outstanding abilities is actually unknown in the ninja world."

"It seems that the village created by the God of Ninja with great effort is gradually decaying like ordinary things."

"It's such a shame."

"Arrogant fellow." Sawara Kiri looked at him with her azure eyes, and there was some sarcasm in her smile. "He is just a rat with a little reputation in the underground, but he speaks as if he knows the first generation."

Hey, don't say that!

When he mentioned this, he immediately became excited.

Kakuzu raised the corners of his mouth as if inadvertently, his deep eyes seemed to have passed through a long time, and he sighed with a rather vicissitudes of life tone:

"Senju Hashirama?"

"Come to think of it, that was the first Konoha ninja I fought."

As a result, as soon as Sahara Kiri finished speaking, he immediately broke down: "When you fought the first generation, did you also use the purple mood card five-speed electric self-propelled stick to hit his butt?"

"If that's the case, then you were able to escape from that master alive, maybe you really have some skills."

"What are you talking about! What are you talking about!"

Kakuzu's yellow face even looked a little purple at this moment.

What followed was a series of completely incomprehensible words such as "service spirit", "killer fairy", "the customer who pays is God", "love what you do", "I'm not a pervert", etc.

"."

"Ah."

As if they had finally calmed down and realized that the other party was trying to delay time with words, both of them looked at Sawara Kiri at the same time, their expressions becoming increasingly indifferent:
"Could it be that until now you are still fantasizing that someone will come to rescue you?"

"The only reliable thing in this world is money."

"As for you, you have been betrayed by some people in the village."

“This is what a village is.”

However, Sawara Kiri did not seem to be shaken at all by his words. He shook his head with a hint of emotion and said calmly:
"I'm different from you. I've never believed in that kind of thing."

"I'm waiting for someone else."

It has been delayed until now and the time is almost up.

"Yeah."

Kakuzu let out a low chuckle.

Behind him, the last ball of resentment, entangled and stuck like a ball of wool, silently blocked his sight and sank into the ground, wrapping his heart.

Listening to Sahara Kiri's riddle, he sighed and twitched the silk thread at the corner of his mouth:
"Then I won't be polite!"

Almost at the same time as the sound fell, the two Kakuzus who were flanking Sawara Kiri flew out at the same time, and the speed at this moment was nearly twice as fast as before.

"Earth Release·Earth Spear!"

"Water Style: Water Horn!"

The body in Sawara Kiri's arms was rammed head-on with a powerful hardening technique, leaving him no room to dodge. He was caught in the fight and had to withstand the powerful water escape attack with his back.

At the same time, he took advantage of this impact to move his steps and body forward suddenly.

"clang!"

The kunai cut into his arm.

However, Kakuzu didn't even bother to take a single defensive action. The kunai embedded in his arm and wrist were even entangled and grasped by the Earth's Wrath.

At the same time, the other hand held his wrist.

Unable to move?!
A look of surprise seemed to flash across Sawara Kiri's face.

"Don't blame me for being mean, young man." Kakuzu looked at him calmly.

"If you want to blame someone, just blame yourself for being too outstanding. I couldn't take you down in such a short time."

As his voice fell.

Three strangely shaped pitch-black structures slowly rose from the ground as if they were crossing the water.

A mask of different colors is attached to the surface of their bodies.

Not just them.

Even the 'clone' that had been fighting against Sawara Kiri before took on the same posture.

Sawara Kiri seemed to finally understand everything.

"Are you planning to die with me?!"

The corners of Di Yuanyu's mouth, which were sewn shut, split open, and his smile was more ferocious than ever before:
"The only one who will die is you!"

"Oops."

Along with a hideous smile on his face, Sawara Kiri gradually became so frightened that even his facial features were distorted.

The four clones surrounding him opened their mouths at the same time.

A violent chakra reaction suddenly rushed out from the mask's mouth.

Fire Escape·Dragon Fire Technique!

Wind Escape·Big Breakthrough!
Lightning Release: Thunder Dragon Bullet Technique!
Water Release·Water Dragon Bullet Technique!
The four ninjutsu of different attributes were combined two by two, mixed into one, and finally burst out with a power that was greater than the sum of one and one, directly engulfing the figures of Sawara Kiri and Kakuzu, causing a violent explosion that shattered all the windows within dozens of meters around.

"Whoosh-"

Relying on the powerful defense brought by the earth escape technique, Kakuzu, whose clothes were mostly torn off by the explosion, leaped out of the thick smoke nimbly.

He stood there, looking at Sawara Kiri being engulfed by the fire.

The young man's originally strong body was quickly burned and roasted into a charred skeleton under the combined stranglehold of fire and torpedo.

The figure was frozen in a half-kneeling posture, in its last appearance before death. Both the clothes and the skin turned into pieces of shattered black.

"This is what happens when you trust your so-called companions."

As if it was a warning, or as if it was talking to himself, Kakuzu looked at the corpse in the center of the fire and shook his head slightly.

But just as he was about to turn back.

The charred body in the center of the fire moved.

Kakuzu's movements froze.

The charred corpse relied on its dry skeleton to slowly rise from half-kneeling to standing, and then took a step forward.

step.

Two steps.

This strange scene made the immortal Kakuzu himself feel a chill in his heart, and he subconsciously took a half step back.

He himself did not die because of the earth's resentment.

But what is that Sawara Kiri? !

However, before Kakuzu could understand what was happening, the charred corpse's steps became faster and faster, and its body wrapped in flames rushed out of the pit, until it even surpassed the sound and completely turned into a black mist.

"boom--"

Bumped into his arms.

Kakuzu's body instinctively made a defensive move, and his entire torso was suspended in the air for a moment under the violent impact.

But my heart suddenly felt empty.

The bodies are staggered.

"Boom!!!"

The black fog wrapped in the storm rushed out of the fireworks, swept up the dust, and after passing through Jiaodu, it carried out a straight and colorless vacuum corridor. The bluestone bricks under the feet showed fish-scale-like cracks, and even the rain curtain was shattered.

Until he stopped, Sahara Kiri, who was still crouching, raised his head. His long black hair swayed slightly in the wind, and his deep blue pupils were shining.

In his blood-stained palm was a dark red heart that was clinging to black resentment and was still beating.

The young man turned around and looked at Kakuzu, who was still dazed even after his chest was cut open. His voice was 100% or even 90% insincere, and even had a bit of light joy:

"I'm sorry. I lied to you."

　There was indeed an update last night, but it was a little late. However, I just woke up from lying on the table, so please let me go this time.
