Naruto: Konoha Insect Master

Chapter 36 Meeting Kakuzu for the first time

♂nbsp; After several days of wandering, Shengping and Cang Lan finally met with several of his business partners. Cang Lan didn't hide anything, and told them about purchasing supplies and forming a caravan.

Everyone looked embarrassed, and a middle-aged man with a mature and steady appearance said: "Shengping, you should know us and do business with us. We can agree, but forming a caravan is really not possible. We are businessmen and we do not do business at a loss. , how much money can a small village with a population of less than 500 make? From transporting goods to selling goods, it takes countless time and money. If we can't even get back the cost of a transaction, then what kind of businessmen are we?"

Cang Lan and Sheng Ping looked at each other and sighed helplessly. They had known that things would not be easy, and they could only discuss the formation of the caravan later. Cang Lan said: "Let's put aside the task of forming the caravan first. Let's talk about purchasing supplies."

In this matter, they are still willing to help because Cang Lan's reward is generous. Before coming, Cang Lan and Shengping had already exchanged all their jewelry for money, which was about 3 million taels. In this era, million taels was already a lot.

Cang Lan took out a list of supplies from his bag and said to everyone: "Each person is responsible for one. After purchasing, gather here. The money for hiring ninja protection will also be counted in my account."

The merchants each took one, looked at it for a while and said that there was no problem. The things on it were very ordinary, and it was not difficult to buy them all. Canglan and Shengping are responsible for the items in Canglan's list, which are difficult to buy no matter what.

"Everyone, remember, you must buy the best things. Money is not an issue. Now, everyone can act on their own." After saying that, everyone got up and left.

"Kuralan-kun, where is our first stop?" Katsuhira asked, holding the list.

"Go to the ninja tool shop first. I want to buy a few storage scrolls and then buy all the ninja tools."

There happened to be a big ninja shop nearby, so Canglan and Shengping went there.

"Boss, I want ten storage scrolls, a thousand kunai, three thousand kunai, a thousand kunai, the more the better. Give me as many ninjutsu scrolls as you want." Now I have money. Yes, Cang Lan said proudly.

The boss was a little embarrassed, "Everything else is easy to talk about, but we really don't have ninjutsu scrolls here. The transaction of ninjutsu scrolls is illegal, and we don't dare to buy or sell them."

"Ah" Kuran has been a ninja for so many years, and today he learned that the transaction of ninjutsu scrolls is illegal. No wonder when he was in Konoha, only ninjas could borrow ninjutsu scrolls. Cang Lan asked: "Boss, do you know where I can buy ninjutsu scrolls?"

"There is a black market, but that place is full of desperadoes and rebellious ninjas from various hidden villages. It is very dangerous. A young man like you might not even have any bones left after going there," the boss reminded.

"Boss, can you tell me the address? I want to have a look." Since he could buy the ninjutsu scroll, he certainly wouldn't let go of this opportunity.

The boss sighed, "It's up to you." After saying that, he wrote a note to him, "I'll give you a piece of advice, keep your money."

"Understood." After buying the ninja tool, Cang Lan sealed the ninja tool with a storage scroll and left.

"Kuralan-kun, you don't really want to go. It's too dangerous. I don't want to die." Shengping looked timid.

"I don't plan to take you, this dragster, with you. You go buy the other things on the list, and I'll go to the black market myself." Cang Lan said angrily.

"That's good. I wish you a safe journey. I'll leave first."

After the two separated, Cang Lan came to the black market according to the address given by her boss. The so-called black market is actually an exchange where they conduct illegal transactions, such as human trafficking, selling stolen goods, etc.

When you walk into the underground exchange, you will be greeted by a strong smell of cigarettes, mixed with a touch of blood. As soon as he entered the door, everyone around him looked at him strangely. Cang Lan ignored it and walked in on his own.

A man who looked like an iron tower stood in front of Cang Lan and mocked: "Kid, this is not the place you should come to. Go home and find your mother."

"Well, I'll go back first and wait for you at home with your mother. You can come back early."

"Hahaha" the people around were stunned for a while, and then burst into laughter.

"What a brat who is not afraid of death." The man was not angry, his expression was very calm, and he suddenly took action, lifted Cang Lan up, and tore him in half.

Cang Lan, who was torn in half with a "bang", turned into wood. Before the man had time to be surprised, a shuriken had already hit him between the eyebrows. The man's tower-like body collapsed, and Cang Lan was nowhere to be found.

Half an hour later, the man's body was disposed of, and everyone started trading normally again, as if nothing had happened.

"Boss, I want ninjutsu scrolls, the more the better." Cang Lan said to a bald man.

"The ninjutsu scroll is gone."

Cang Lan searched for a long time in the exchange and only bought a few water escape scrolls. Just when he was about to give up and leave, a masked man stood in front of him and said angrily: "I heard that you need ninjutsu scrolls. I have a lot here, do you want it?" When the people around saw the masked man, they were a little scared and backed away.

Cang Lan felt that this man looked familiar, but couldn't remember who he was for a moment, but since he had it, let's buy it from him. Cang Lan asked: "How much do you have?"

The masked man took off the baggage from his back and threw it to the ground. The ninjutsu scroll inside was scattered all over the floor, with blood stains on it. It was clear at a glance that it was murder and robbery.

Cang Lan remained calm and did not ask him how much money he had, but asked: "What's your name? Are you strong?"

"Kakuzu, I can kill anyone here." Kakuzu replied calmly.

Cang Lan's expression remained unchanged, and she said calmly: "I don't want the scroll anymore. I want you to kill someone, and I will give you 100 million as a reward."

"Deal, what's your name and where will you live?"

"His name is Masashi Kishimoto. He lives in the Land of Rain. He has the strength of an elite chuunin. This man is very famous in the local area. You will know if you ask."

"No problem, where's the money?"

"Do you think I can put 100 million on me? I only brought 10 million, which can be used as a deposit. After the event is completed, I will give you the remaining 90 million." After Cang Lan finished speaking, he took out his bag. Pour out all the money inside.

After Kakuzu picked up the money, he turned around and left, "Bring the money and meet me here in seven days."

"Your scroll hasn't been taken away yet."

"gave it to you."

"Thank you, and I hope you won't disappoint me."

Kakuzu didn't answer him and left the exchange directly. The people around him finally breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Cang Lan with even more strange eyes. Cang Lan ignored it, picked up the scroll on the ground and left.

As soon as he walked out of the black market, Cang Lan collapsed on the ground and said to himself: "As expected of a man who fought against the First Hokage, his murderous aura is astonishing, and his strength is even more terrifying. Fortunately, I am smart, otherwise I would be in danger."

It turns out that Cang Lan has been pretending to be calm. There is absolutely no way Cang Lan can be Angle's opponent now. The moment Kakuzu walked in, everyone stayed away. In addition, the scroll Kakuzu gave to Kuran had blood stains on it. Some of the blood stains were fresh and some were from long ago. Cang Lan analyzed and came to the conclusion that Kakuzu sold the scrolls on the black market. After selling them, he killed the buyers and took them back to sell them again. If Cang Lan buys the scroll, he will die when he goes out. If he doesn't buy it, he will still die. So Cang Lan came to lure him with a huge sum of money to lure him to kill a non-existent person, and then poured out all the money in the bag as a deposit, sending a message to Kakuzu that I have no money.

As for the ninjutsu scroll, Canglan didn't expect that he would actually give the scroll to himself. Maybe it was because he had a big business, who would care about such small money?

After regaining his composure, Cang Lan quickly grabbed his things and ran away. It was not a loss to exchange ten million for a bunch of ninjutsu scrolls.
