The man standing at the top of the ninja world

The Kingdom of Tang is located in a continuous mountain range.

This mountain range is very long, and there is a cave in the middle of the mountain range. The space inside the cave is very narrow, and the light is also a bit poor. It is obviously broad daylight, but the cave is a little dark.

The cave was empty except for a stone bed in the corner. A man with a scarf on his head and a mask on his face was closing his eyes, sitting cross-legged on the stone bed, with his hands crossed to form a mudra. It was Kakuzu who had escaped from the siege of Jiraiya and Tsunade.

After an unknown amount of time passed, Kakuzu opened his eyes, released his hands on the stone bed, and let out a long breath.

Kakuzu's eyes flashed with green light and he said, "After treatment for so long, the injuries on my body are finally healed."

When fighting Jiraiya before, Kakuzu had the upper hand, but after Tsunade joined in and besieged him with Jiraiya, Kakuzu's situation suddenly took a turn for the worse. Faced with Jiraiya and Tsunade who cooperated tacitly, , his situation continued to decline. At first he was at a disadvantage, but soon he completely lost his ability to fight back, and his injuries continued to worsen.

Kakuzu is a veteran ninja who has been active in the ninja world since the Warring States Period. He is now over 60 years old. He has experienced countless battles in his life. After betraying Taki Ninja Village and becoming a bounty hunter, in order to complete bounty tasks, he earned He received a generous reward, fought bloody battles all day long, and had rich combat experience. He soon realized that if he continued to fight, he would only die.

Although he has five lives, as long as he cannot escape the siege of Jiraiya and Tsunade, he will be killed again and again by Jiraiya and Tsunade, and finally all five lives will be consumed, and then he will also Really lost his life.

Therefore, Kakuzu made a prompt decision and was deliberately hit by Tsunade's fatal punch. The power of this punch was so terrifying that it directly cost him a heart. However, after Kakuzu was hit by this punch, Jiraiya and Tsuna Their hands relaxed, because in their opinion, Kakuzu would definitely be killed by this punch. After all, they didn't know that he had five lives.

Kakuzu seized this opportunity, took advantage of Jiraiya and Tsunade to relax, launched earth escape and escaped without looking back. At that time, they were in the northeastern part of the Land of Fire, close to the border, and he was afraid that Jiraiya He and Tsunade would continue to pursue him, so they did not dare to stay in the Country of Fire, so they went all the way north and fled to the Country of Yu, which is adjacent to the Country of Fire.

After arriving in the Country of Yu, Kakuzu was relieved after confirming that Jiraiya and Tsunade were not chasing him. Although there is a Yu-nin village in the Country of Yu, the Yu-nin village is weak and does not have a single Kage-level ninja. , he didn't take Tang Ninja Village seriously at all.

Although he saved his life, he was also seriously injured, so he did not go to the city. Instead, he found a cave in the mountains and made a stone bed in the cave, where he prepared to treat his injuries. Injury.

Kakuzu has lived for such a long time and lived alone for a long time, and he is often injured, so he is also quite proficient in medical skills.

Kakuzu's medical skills are naturally incomparable to Tsunade's, but treating his own injuries is still no problem. Although he escaped by chance, his injuries were very serious, so it took him a month to heal him. All the injuries on his body were healed.

Kakuzu's hands clenched tightly into fists, his green eyes flashed with anger, and he said coldly: "Damn Jiraiya, damn Tsunade, you actually beat me like this, damn it, I was really You underestimated them both."

"Although I heard in the past that there were three genius ninjas in Konoha Village, and they were called Sannin by Sanshouyu Hanzo of Rain Ninja Village, I thought that they would not be very powerful at such a young age. I didn't expect that their strength would be so great. So powerful, if I hadn't reacted quickly this time, I would have almost died in their hands."

"Hmph, I will never give up. I will avenge this revenge one day."

"And this damn guy Toudou. If he hadn't escaped suddenly and made me so confused, I might not have been beaten so badly by Jiraiya and Tsunade. He tricked me so badly, I must make him pay the price. , and the remuneration he promised me has not been paid yet, so I have to get this account back from him."

"By the way, there is also that boy Uzumaki Nagato. This boy actually insulted me like this. It is unforgivable. I must kill this boy. Only in this way can the hatred in my heart be quelled!"

Nagato exposed his words in public and pointed out that he claimed to have had a fight with Senju Hashirama, the first Hokage, but was actually killed by Senju Hashirama with one move, which greatly embarrassed him in front of everyone and made Kakuzu hate Nagato. I hate it very much.

"However." A thoughtful look appeared on Kakuzu's face, "I didn't think about it carefully before, but now that I think about it, although this guy Toudo is not as powerful as me, he is still a real Kage-level ninja. Although we were at a disadvantage at the time, we were not necessarily If he will lose, Toudou should not run away. His running away looks more like a deliberate act. Maybe he ran away on purpose in order to lure Uzumaki Nagato far away."

"Although Uzumaki Nagato seems to have good strength, he is only a teenager after all. Toudou is old and cunning. Uzumaki Nagato is definitely not Toudou's opponent, and the two of them have gone far. Even if Uzumaki Nagato is in danger, Jiraiya and Tsuna There was no time to support him, Uzumaki Nagato might have been killed by Toudou."

Kakuzu shook his head, "I hope Uzumaki Nagato has not been killed by Toudo, so that I can kill Uzumaki Nagato with my own hands and clear away the hatred in my heart."

After a moment of silence, Kakuzu stretched out his right hand and pressed it on his chest, and said: "Although I was lucky enough to save my life this time, it also consumed a heart. Now there are only four hearts left. The Five Elements Ninjutsu can be used." There is also one missing type, and my strength has also dropped a lot."

"The injury was not healed before, so I didn't dare to act rashly. Now that the injury has healed, it's time to go out and find a new heart to replenish it, so that my strength can be restored to its peak."

"Furthermore, it took so long to treat the injury this time. I haven't accepted a new bounty mission for a long time. It's time to accept a bounty mission and earn rewards."

Kakuzu thought for a while and said: "Very good, that's it. I've decided to go to the gathering place of bounty hunters to take on a bounty mission with at least a jounin to earn rewards. After killing the mission target, I'll use it again." The heart of the mission target to replace the heart I lost."
