Black Zetsu stood next to several white Zetsu corpses and said to Nagato.

Nagato ignored Black Zetsu's words, but turned his Rinnegan's gaze to the sky, looking fascinated.

Seeing that Nagato ignored him, Black Zetsu knew that Nagato, like him, didn't care about the death of the White Zetsus.

Anyway, there are plenty of these trash fish, so there is no need to feel sad over the death of a few trash fish.

The real key to the problem is to determine who killed these White Zetsu.

Even though Bai Jue is a bastard, he can kill these bastards silently, and his opponent is no ordinary person.

"Let's go."

Nagato turned and left.

Black Zetsu shook his head helplessly, disposed of the corpses of several White Zetsu, and followed Nagato's footsteps.

"Mr. Kakuzu, we meet again."

I woke up with a heavy head, and the voice ringing in my ears was very familiar.

It's that annoying guy with 500,000 taels.

The moment before his consciousness fell into darkness, he only remembered that his body was bounced away by the red-haired boy using ninjutsu, and he did not know what happened after that.

But when he heard the insect man's voice and saw him reappearing in front of him, he knew that he had been saved by him again.

This is still a ward, but the location is not a hospital in the land of ghosts.

Because this room is closed, has no windows, and the air in the room is relatively humid, it is obviously a hidden underground stronghold.

"Shut up or I'll kill you!"

Although his body was very weak, Kakuzu was still very arrogant and said cruel words about killing people.

But the insect man didn't care about Kakuzu's threat. With Kakuzu's attitude, it would take a while just to recover from his injuries. Now he could only talk quickly.

"How about it? I told you that we will meet soon. You see, it has only been three days since we last parted."

"Did you know that I would be targeted by that red-haired boy?"

Kakuzu's voice was full of anger and he was being calculated.

"You took Hanzo's body to exchange for money, and the Amegakure ninjas seek revenge on you. Isn't this just and natural? Even we can't stop the Amegakure ninjas from taking revenge on you."

The insect man asked back.

Everyone was speechless.

Yes, he attacked Hanzo on the battlefield that day, stole Hanzo's body, and used Hanzo's body in exchange for money. Hanzo's men came to seek revenge from him. There was nothing wrong with that.

Of course there was a plan by the Ghost Country military, but the root cause still lay with himself.

"...Who is that kid? He has red hair. Is he a remnant of the Uzumaki clan?"

Kakuzu fell silent and asked this question.

I thought of Nagato's eyes that were neither sad nor happy, and now that I think about it, I feel a chill in my heart.

Even when faced with Sunagakure's relentless pursuit, he did not feel fear.

However, facing a young man who could be his grandson, he was defeated so miserably that he had no power to fight back.

Even if you have all five hearts, you have no chance of winning and will still be defeated by the opponent's overwhelming power.

On this point, Jiaodu is extremely convinced.

That red-haired boy is completely different from his power.

That is the complete suppression of the inferior by the superior.

Then a question arose in my mind, since the opponent has such a powerful force, why not take Hanzo with him to break out of the encirclement?

Now you're here to collect Hanzo's body instead?

Kakuzu couldn't understand it no matter how hard he thought about it.

"It is not entirely certain whether he is a member of the Uzumaki clan. Even if he is not, there should still be blood of the Uzumaki clan in his body. But one thing is certain, the opponent's eyes are the legendary samsara eyes, and he can escape from him.

You are really lucky, Mr. Kakuzu."

The insect man said meaningfully.

He was the first person to come into contact with Akatsuki in the Demon Country's military.

But at that time, he didn't think much about it. He didn't know what the samsara eye meant. Or rather, he didn't know what the samsara eye was.

It was not until Nagato later went to the Kingdom of Demons that he officially came into the eyes of the spies of the Kingdom of Demons.

But in order not to alert others, there has been no action.

It wasn't until Madara began to control the war in the Kingdom of Rain behind the scenes that he officially launched an action against the Samsara Eye.

The purpose was to get rid of the danger of Uchiha Madara, but unexpectedly, the real danger was not Madara, but Nagato, who had now inherited Madara's power.

"Reincarnation Eye!?"

Kakuzu stared, finally recalling why he felt familiar with Nagato's eyes.

He has traveled around the world for various bounty missions and knows many secrets in the ninja world, such as the three major pupil techniques.

Sharingan, Byakugan, and the most mysterious Rinnegan, which is only passed down in the name of legend.

Like many people, he thought that the Eye of Samsara was just a mythical legend, even the Immortal of Six Paths. He did not expect that the Eye of Samsara actually existed.

If the Samsara Eye exists, then the legend of the Six Paths Immortal is probably true.

To put an end to the troubled times, he became the leader of the Ninja Sect.

Thinking of the gravitational and repulsive ninjutsu that people can't guard against, Kakuzu's body trembled slightly.

If that was the power of the Samsara Eye, then I was certainly not unjustly defeated.

"So, Mr. Kakuzu, do you want to join us? I think the money in your bankbook is not enough for you to buy a second life."

The insect man laughed teasingly.

"Shut up, or I'll kill you, you five hundred thousand tael guy!"

Kakuzu didn't know why, but suddenly became irritable.

"We are all old acquaintances, so there is no need to be so arrogant, Mr. Kakuzu. Besides, I should have said that I have already raised the price to ten million taels."

The insect man didn't care about Kakuzu's body that was full of murderous intent but didn't move.

I am extremely obsessed with money, so if I owe money, my mood will be as bad as if I owe a favor.

"Sooner or later I will kill you and use your body in exchange for the bounty."

"It's up to you, if you can do it."

The insect man smiled slightly.

"Do you think I can't do it? It's only five hundred thousand taels, and it's not worthy of being the focus of my notebook."

"It's ten million taels. Then, you are welcome to join, Mr. Kakuzu."

The insect man had no choice but to correct the mistakes in Kakuzu's words.

Go to the cabinet on the side, where there is a black leather suitcase, take it out from there, and put it where you can see it from the corner.

"There are uniforms that must be worn during official operations, as well as many interesting toys. I hope you like it. By the way, the working time is forty years. After forty years, Mr. Kakuzu can choose to continue with us.

You can make an appointment, or you can choose to regain your freedom. We will not force it."

"Forty years? What a short number."

Kakuzu got off the hospital bed and smiled coldly.

Only forty years, for him who has an almost infinite lifespan, is just a fleeting life experience.

"I think it's long enough."

After all, not everyone has such a long lifespan.

At this point, Insect Man is very envious of Kakuzu.

"Take me to see your leader. I want to see what kind of monster and snake god this guy is who can spread the medical industry of the Demon Country to all the countries in the Ninja World in just a few years."

Kakuzu made his request.

"Don't you need to rest a little longer?"

Bug Man asked.

"This injury doesn't hinder it."

"Really? But before I go to see the leader, I have to deal with a problem first."

"Um?"

Before Kakuzu could react, Insect Man walked up to Kakuzu and stretched out his hand to pat Kakuzu's shoulder.
