Ninja at the top of the food chain

Chapter 958
"Because of the battle with Hanzo that year, I was on the blacklist of the federal country. Whenever I did missions there, I would be wanted by the local ninja village."

"Especially in Longyin Village, those high-level officials wanted me to die quickly, so they often summoned Wuyin Yunyin's masters to chase and kill me."

"The Nation of Fire doesn't really need people like me, and the Federation is hostile to me. The bounty mission is becoming more and more difficult for me."

He took off his mask, drank a glass of sake, and when talking about his experience in recent years, the corner was depressed. The blow to his career obviously made this money fan a little depressed.

Yahiko moved his lips, but he didn't know how to comfort Kakuzu. To be honest, because of the nature of the other party's work, he actually didn't like him very much.

The reason why he was invited by Jiaodu to come to this banquet is because Jiaodu really owed him, or in other words, the Xiao organization back then.

Regardless of whether the opponent is a follower sent by the teacher or not, this cannot be concealed: there is a high probability that Akatsuki will be wiped out by Yuyin if there is no horn to fight with all his strength.

Although he has been ups and downs in the imperial officialdom for a long time, and he has become much smoother in dealing with people, Yahiko is Yahiko after all. He values ​​friendship and will not sit idly by Kakuto's plight.

"Senior Kakuto, if you have any requests, please speak up. As long as it doesn't violate the country's constitution or violate conscience and morality, I will help as much as I can."

Yahiko slowly put down his wine glass, and looked at Kakuzu seriously, the other party must ask for something to invite him to dinner, and his choice is to accept it decisively.

Holding the hand holding the chopsticks, he paused slightly while picking up the dishes, Kakuzu glanced at Yahiko from the corner of his eye, taking a panoramic view of that solemn face, feeling a little moved, a little melancholy, and a little ashamed.

What he said just now, Jiaodu really did not lie, the structure of the five major powers disappeared, and the new world structure is the confrontation between the two giant regimes, the Empire and the Federation.

Under such circumstances, for the lone traveler, the ninja world is no longer a fertile ground for them to manipulate freely, but a dangerous place where they will die if they are not careful.

Just like the attack on the Cult of the Cthulhu, monsters like Ice can be summoned to deal with it. If Takigakure wants to eliminate the rebellion, he can also find corresponding masters to deal with it, such as Kirigakure, Yunyin, or Xinshayin from Tianzhi Country.

In the closely-connected federal regime, the daimyos work together to enhance the strength of the faction, and the few ninja villages left have an unbelievably good relationship with each other.

Daren Village is willing to help Xiaoren Village, and Xiaoren Village is willing to find Daren Village when encountering difficulties. After all, the enemy is now, and if you are not united, you will be courting death.

Federation, Federation, that's what it means.

Although the Nation of Fire doesn't care much about the alliance of a group of weak people, a bounty ninja like Kakuzu does care a lot, because this is equivalent to depriving him of the space he needs to survive.

A shadow-level traitorous ninja, a well-known bounty ninja, sounds nice, as if he is amazing, but he is already an old calendar of the five great powers.

In the new era, there is no ship that can carry him.

Especially the most recent time, when Kakuto went to the Land of Frost to carry out an assassination mission, he thought he could finally make a lot of money, but he suddenly ran into...

After receiving Taki Yin's request for assistance, he came to kill his Ye Cang.

I won't go into details about the specific battle process. In short, after losing four hearts, Jiaodu escaped with his life. In the end, he had to leave the Federation country in a panic, and ran back to the Fire Nation, which had no ill will towards him.

It's a pity that although the Fire Nation doesn't want him wanted, the security environment in this country is so good. There are densely packed military areas all over the territory, and there are even a group of root elites wandering back and forth. The black market and the like have basically been wiped out.

If you can't receive the mission, you will naturally have no money to make. Jiaodu doesn't want to go to the remote areas in the far west and the north to suffer for nothing, let alone his own strength, and he doesn't want to rashly carry out robbery and violate the constitution of the Fire Nation, so...

Inevitably, he fell into a predicament.

It's pitiful for a film-level master to be reduced to such a point. Kakuto has no choice but to find the former old leader Yahiko, hoping that the other party can give him a serious job, a job that matches his worth.

After all, it is said that Yahiko is doing well. With the character of the other party, Kakudo is not worried that Yahiko will deceive him. This former leader may be one of the few people he can trust.

After listening to Kakuto's dull narration, Yahiko pressed his temple with a slight headache, and after a while, he said quite speechlessly:
"Senior Kakuzu, with your strength, why don't you go directly to my teacher? I believe that with his style of valuing talents all the time, he will definitely use you again."

"You don't understand..." Kakudo snorted softly, seeing that Yahiko didn't understand, Xiaonan didn't take it seriously, and told the truth intermittently:

"I ran away after completing the task. Although there was nothing wrong with me morally, I left without saying goodbye. I'm afraid I would be ridiculed if I went to see Lei Luo again so hastily."

"Besides, I've also inquired about the high-level military officers in the Kingdom of Fire, and they are basically not easy to get along with. That's why I came to you to see if there is any good position on your side that is suitable for me."

From these two sentences, it can be seen that Jiao is a person who has a good face and values ​​high-level relations. Strictly speaking, he is not really unable to eat, but because he is too demanding. A situation where you can't go up or down.

In short, it is a matter of saving face and suffering.

In the bipolar structure formed by the imperial federation, under the background of this great era, wandering ninjas who are free to kill and receive rewards at will have gradually withdrawn from the historical stage of the ninja world.

The horns are the epitome of an era, marking how insignificant the Lone Ranger is in the face of two systematic superpowers that monopolize almost all military power in the ninja world.

"Hmm..." Having fully understood Kakuzu's thoughts, Yahiko frowned and pondered, not knowing how to deal with the other party.

Absorbed into Xinyuyin?But Yusheng is now peaceful and stable, and there is no need for such a master as Jiaodu.

Arrange Kakuzu to produce ninjas?Judging by his appearance, he is definitely not willing to move any bricks, and this is obviously a waste of resources.

Do you recommend the corners go to the center?
Before I could figure it out, there was a squeak from the door behind me, followed by a loud shout: "Waiter, put out all the signboards in your store, and serve me a share of 10 taels." !"

Such a rich and powerful shout immediately caused the guests in the restaurant to look sideways, and Yahiko couldn't help being curious, wanting to see which local rich man came over, but when he turned around, the expression on his face suddenly changed. Leng.

"Senior Cheng?"

The visitor was dressed in a red suit, wearing large sunglasses, with a leisurely expression, holding a cigar and puffing.

As he walked, he left behind thick white smoke, only to choke a brown-haired young man in casual clothes and carrying a huge suitcase behind him, coughing and bending over.
