Teaching the Boss a Lesson

Kazekage Yinglin hesitated for a moment, but seeing Sasori's longing expression, he decided to buy the Chakra Metal! As long as it made Sasori happy.

Just then, Uchiha Kō appeared. "Wait!" He stepped forward and grabbed Lin's arm. Lin frowned and looked at Uchiha Kō.

"Lord Hokage, is there something you need? Could it be that you've also taken a fancy to this Chakra Metal?" As he spoke, Kazekage Rin tightened his grip on the Chakra Metal.

Uchiha Kō chuckled upon hearing this. "Haha, Lin, is that how you see me? Do you think I Uchiha Kō, am the kind of person who steals someone else's love?"

Lin remained silent for a moment, glanced at Uchiha Kō, and said nothing, but his eyes told Uchiha Kō, "You are it."

Uchiha Kō's lips twitched. Is that how Lin sees me now? In any case, I definitely didn't steal anyone's love this time.

He sighed. "Brother Lin, you've really misunderstood this time." He scratched his head, swearing that he had only come out for a stroll.

He just wanted to greet Lin Xiang, but then he discovered that there was something wrong with the stall owner's Chakra Metal. Indeed, judging from its appearance and aura, it was a ten-pound Chakra Metal.

However, Uchiha Kō's Soul Perception Technique was extremely powerful, and he immediately sensed that something was wrong. He activated his Three-Tomoe Sharingan.

As a result, they saw that the Chakra Metal had been tampered with, and Uchiha Kō estimated that the Chakra Metal weighed no more than two pounds.

Asking for a whopping 300 million is truly shameless. As an ally of the Sunagakure Village, Konoha, and Uchiha Kō as the Hokage, are essentially brothers of the Sunagakure's Kazekage.

Since his brother had been deceived, how could he remain indifferent? So Uchiha Kō stepped forward to stop this behavior, but before he could even speak, he was met with Lin's disdain.

"Ahem, no matter what you think of me, as a friend, I have to tell you, there's something wrong with this Chakra Metal. It..." Before Uchiha Kō could finish speaking, the shopkeeper objected.

"Are you trying to cause trouble?! My family has been selling Chakra Metal for generations. Do you think I'd sell you fakes when I set up this stall?" The stall owner's face darkened as he glared at Uchiha Kō with an unfriendly expression.

"If you can't afford it, move aside. Don't tarnish the reputation of our Kumogakure's steel-producing family, or you'll end up dead in the street tomorrow," the stall owner threatened.

He gestured to Uchiha Kō not to meddle, Uchiha Kō remained silent at first, then laughed.

"Is your Chakra Metal inlaid with gold? It's less than two pounds, and you're selling it for three hundred million. Why don't you just rob someone?" Uchiha Kō mocked.

The stall owner's expression changed, and he shouted, "Brothers, come out! Someone's causing trouble!" As soon as he finished speaking, a group of tall, burly men with distinct features of Kumogakure walked out of a nearby house.

They were standing behind their boss, who stood up and looked at Uchiha Kō with a mocking expression. "Mind your own business, huh? Fine, you've ruined my business. I'll make sure you can't get out of bed for a month! Guys, let's go!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than the burly man rushed forward, intending to teach the young man a lesson.

At this moment, Uchiha Kō was dressed in casual clothes. His divine robes were too big and hot, and he really couldn't be bothered to wear them except on important occasions. Therefore, the boss and these burly men did not recognize Uchiha Kō's true identity.

Kazekage Yinglin realized that there might really be something wrong with this piece of Chakra Metal. Seeing Uchiha Kō surrounded by the crowd, he frowned and prepared to make a move.

However, Uchiha Kō said, "Lin, don't make a move. These people aren't enough for me to handle alone. I'm itching for a fight, let's play around with them!"

After saying that, Uchiha Kō took a deep breath, assumed a fighting stance, and prepared for battle.

These people were all ordinary people, so he planned to use martial arts to take them down.

A burly man roared and charged towards Uchiha Kō, throwing a punch, but Uchiha Kō struck first and landed on the man's fist.

Click! Click!

A cracking sound rang out, and the burly man's arm drooped down, but Uchiha Kō remained unmoved.

"Next." The indifferent voice rang out, sending chills down the spines of everyone present.

The boss's men were stunned by this guy's fighting style and dared not move for a moment.

The boss was taken aback for a moment, but he was a man who had seen a lot in his life. "All of you, go for it! He's only one person, what are you afraid of with so many of you!"

"Beat him up! One million taels of silver for each of you afterwards!" The boss was furious; he was determined to make this young man pay the price today!

The burly men's eyes gleamed with greed; a generous reward would surely attract brave men.

This time, they plan to work together and give Uchiha Kō a good beating! One million ryo is no small sum.

Uchiha Kō sneered, then unleashed his Iron Mountain Lean, instantly sending three or four people flying.

What kind of move is that! It's so powerful! And those strange footwork! Damn it! It's completely unpredictable!

Uchiha Kō fought and dodged, having a great time. Each time he dodged and moved, he left his handprints and footprints on his enemy's face, chest, and back.

It was a real hardship for these burly men; they couldn't understand until their deaths why Uchiha Kō could always easily evade capture!

The farce lasted for about fifteen minutes before ANBU Anbu Ninja from Kumogakure appeared. They had received a report of trouble and rushed over!

Seeing Uchiha Kō relentlessly attacking the villagers of Kumogakure, the Anbu Ninja immediately shouted, "Don't move!" Some ninjas even drew their Ninja Blade, looking at Uchiha Kō with serious expressions.

The next moment, five figures appeared in front of Uchiha Kō. They were wearing Konoha Forehead Protector and then drew their Kunai and Ninja Blade, ready to fight at all times.

Seeing this, Scorpion also summoned the Chikamatsu Ten Puppets to protect Old Man Lin.

The Anbu of Kumogakure were dumbfounded. When Uchiha Kō turned around, they realized that the one who had attacked them was none other than Uchiha Kō! The Hokage of Konoha!

"Oh, the Anbu Ninja from Kumogakure has arrived at just the right time! Why didn't they come when he attacked me, but they've come just as I attacked them?" Uchiha Kō smiled slightly, his eyes narrowed.

"Could it be that you think I, Uchiha Kō, am easy to bully?" Upon hearing this, everyone present felt their scalps tingle, the Anbu' eyes flickered, and the boss was terrified. Uchiha Kō, this man is Uchiha Kō!

A person's name is like a tree's shadow; the name of Uchiha Kō had long been known throughout the entire Ninja World. From ninja clans to common children, everyone held his name in high esteem.

The Anbu Ninja of Kumogakure knew that this was not something they could handle, so they exchanged glances, and one of the ninjas sent out a signal flare.

Whoosh! A blue signal flare shot into the sky and bloomed in the air. Seeing this, the Anbu of Kumogakure began to run towards the direction of the signal flare.

Darui narrowed his eyes, told someone to stay there while he handled the matter himself. This seemed to be a serious matter; they'd even launched a signal flare!

Darui charged toward the scene of the disturbance.

The shopkeeper knelt on the ground, pleading, "Lord Hokage, spare my life! Lord Hokage! I... I didn't know I had offended you, and that's why I have defied your authority."

"Please, Uchiha Kō, just let me go!" The boss was in tears. Offending Uchiha Kō meant certain doom; it was a well-known fact in the Ninja World.

If you don't believe me, look at the Third Kazekage and the Third Raikage. They were all highly skilled fighters, yet they were either killed or severely injured by Uchiha Kō.

Uchiha Kō's lips curled slightly into a faint smile. His voice was calm yet tinged with mockery. "Let me go? Fine, then tell me, what's wrong with that piece of Chakra Metal?"

The boss's face turned pale instantly, and cold sweat poured down his forehead.

He knew perfectly well that if he didn't explain things clearly, he might not survive today.

In the face of death, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and recount in detail the steps involved in making the inferior metal balls.

As the boss spoke, he kept a close eye on Uchiha Kō's expression with his beady eyes, afraid of missing any subtle change.

However, he didn't notice at all that Kazekage Yinglin's face had darkened considerably as he spoke.

Kazekage Yinglin frowned deeply, a flash of anger in his eyes. He was clearly very dissatisfied with his boss's behavior. Did he really think he was such a fool? Was he so easy to bully?

"This is outrageous!" Sasori's voice was icy as he manipulated the Chikamatsu Ten Puppets, flicking his finger to transform a puppet hand into a mechanism.

It aimed at the boss and shot out the poisoned needle with a whoosh. The boss didn't feel anything at first, but just two minutes later, bumps started to appear on his body. He felt itchy and started scratching.

Unexpectedly, scratching only caused the toxins to spread, resulting in more and more bumps appearing on his back, legs, arms, head, face, neck, and all over his body.

The boss immediately wailed, while Scorpion's lips curled into a smile as he concealed the poison needle wound of the Chikamatsu Ten Puppets, pretending nothing had happened.

Nohara Rin sniffed and smelled a foul stench. "This smell is... a compound poison from Sunagakure!" She looked at Sasori.

Scorpion noticed her gaze and smiled slightly. Lin frowned and turned her head away.

Seeing this, Scorpion also looked at the boss, but at this moment his eyes were like those of someone looking at a dead man.

Their little tricks naturally couldn't escape Uchiha Kō's eyes, but he didn't intend to say anything, nor did he intend to forgive or stand up so soon.

Otherwise, wouldn't all this suffering have been for nothing?

Soon after, a large number of Anbu gathered, led by Darui, who was in charge of receiving the village leaders and their followers.

He looked at his boss, who was rolling on the ground, then at Uchiha Kō and Lin. Both sides were on high alert, and neither was willing to back down.

Immediately, he understood what was going on: this guy had swindled money from two of the Shadows!
