The Land of Iron, the Kirigakure.
"Even his clones have this kind of power. Just how strong is my best friend now?"
Inside the room, Shisui sighed to Itachi.
Itachi nodded silently upon hearing this. It was indeed exaggerated that a mere clone could so easily repel the Raikage!
"You mean Obito and Konan... would your best friend really kill them?"
Shisui asked, not out of concern for the two people, but simply out of curiosity.
Fugaku, the Haruma is gone, Shisui once again transforms into a walking encyclopedia of questions.
Itachi pondered for a moment, "Given his personality, Konan and Obito are highly unlikely to be in any danger."
"The reason? The reason?" Shisui asked, resting his chin on his hand, looking surprised.
His close friend was not a soft-hearted person, so how did Itachi come to this conclusion?
Itachi turned his head to look at Shisui, his expression quite helpless. "You should know your boss's personality, right?"
"Follow the money!" Shisui replied without hesitation, "Profit above all else!"
"I know that perfectly well, Itachi, don't really think I'm stupid, okay?"
Itachi rolled his eyes and fell silent, speechless.
moment,
Itachi continued, "The company's long-term mission is to expand the Rich Man Bridge and align it with the standards of the Five Great Nations."
" Obito's Dōjutsu, Kamui Dimension."
"A large mobile warehouse—I don't think the boss has any reason to give it up."
"I reckon even Yagura understood this a long time ago."
" Yagura?"
Shisui couldn't understand why Yagura money at the bridge, knew about it before they did.
Meeting Shisui's clear yet foolish gaze, Itachi explained, "Think about it, before Yagura went on vacation, he repeatedly asked his father for help, or he would complain to his boss."
"This time, when his vacation was suddenly interrupted, Yagura didn't make a fuss at all. Even when he was helping his boss extract the Tailed Beast Chakra, he didn't mention the vacation issue."
"I didn't think anything was wrong before, but now that I think about it, Yagura must have gotten the news from the boss a long time ago."
"Compared to Obito's ability to move and store energy, even Yagura in his Tailed Beast Transformation is clearly inferior."
Shisui nodded thoughtfully. "Indeed, according to you, my best friend certainly won't let Obito off easily."
"Then, what about Konan?"
Shisui looked up and asked again.
"This might be related to her abilities."
Itachi raised an eyebrow and recalled, "Several years ago, the boss instructed Kakuzu during Shapeshifting meeting..."
"Have Kakuzu keep an eye on the flow of funds and their usage, especially the explosive tags..."
" Kakuzu's position within the organization clearly makes him more trustworthy than me."
"It must have been the intelligence he sent back that made the boss feel that Konan had a reason to live."
"Otherwise, given Konan's strength..."
"Leaving aside the fact that the meeting place was crowded and conspicuous, she was accompanied by the Hyuga clan leader the entire way."
"The boss really wants to kill Konan; she won't even live to see the day she enters the Kirigakure."
"What you're saying isn't right, is it?"
Shisui's eyes lit up slightly, as if he had found an opportunity to prove his intelligence!
"Before we set off for the Land of Iron, didn't my dear friend borrow that divine weapon from you?"
" Totsuka Blade! Drag the enemy into a dreamlike Genjutsu world, sealing them away forever!"
"Isn't this the same as being dead? If you didn't intend to kill anyone, why would your best friend lend you this weapon?"
Seeing Shisui's excited expression, Itachi coldly retorted, "Is it possible that the sword was intended to be used against someone else?"
Even though Shisui has always been my best friend since childhood, she still calls Haruma her closest friend...
Itachi felt a little uneasy.
Kirigakure
The top-floor office of Great Rich Man Company.
Haruma looked at the people below with a leisurely expression, her fingertips lightly tapping on the table.
Konan, Obito, and a human who looks remarkably like the Black and White Zetsu.
Without the pitcher plant on its head and half of its black body, White Zetsu now looks no different from a normal human except for its skin color.
After changing into brand new clothes, Obito and Konan stared at the contract, which was several meters long, and cold sweat poured down their backs.
White Zetsu had already completed the signing process, without even considering the consequences of breaching the contract.
After all, the promise of a normal human body from Haruma was an irresistible temptation for White Zetsu!
The taste of food, the feeling of pooping~
We've been waiting for White Zetsu for so long!
After carefully reviewing the contract, Obito wiped imaginary cold sweat from his brow. "One hundred billion? That's way too outrageous!"
"Furthermore, there are various restrictions in place, such as prohibiting plundering outside the country, prohibiting Genjutsu manipulation, and threatening the printing of money by various daimyo."
"Isn't this revival fee too much?"
Upon hearing this, Konan, after reading the contract, also frowned and looked at Haruma.
Haruma appeared calm, but inwardly she felt quite helpless.
Haruma had already taken action years ago on methods such as manipulating daimyo with Genjutsu and even printing his own money.
However, the system doesn't recognize banknotes produced using this method; otherwise, why would Haruma bother with so many calculations?
The contract restricting Obito and Konan's raids...
The black market merchants from the Five Great Nations and neighboring countries are all under the direct control of Hashirama Senju, who leads the team. Sending these two would be tantamount to stealing their business!
Haruma paused, looking at Obito and saying calmly:
"With your abilities, plus the help of White Zetsu's infinite clones, I think it shouldn't be too long before you connect the Rich Man Bridge to the five countries."
"The 0.5% commission from all bridge tolls collected during this period is already a considerable income."
"Saving up 10 billion will indeed take some time, but it's still much easier than your Eye of the Moon Plan, isn't it?"
Shifting her position where the white bones were digging into her bottom, Haruma turned to look at Konan: "As for you, the five nations are about to unite against Xiao!"
"Once the Fourth Shinobi World War begins, there will be no shortage of buyers for strategic materials like Explosive Tag!"
"With your dividends, as long as you produce quickly enough, there's absolutely no need to worry about not being able to save money."
Haruma it came to choosing people to focus on within the Akatsuki, Konan's name wasn't initially on the list.
However, after Kakuzu reported that the organization had not spent a large sum of money to purchase Explosive Tag, Haruma added Konan back to the list.
Having witnessed Konan's previous battles, Haruma finally understood the truth behind the original story's ability to pull out 600 billion Explosive Tag to blow up Obito!
The secret technique Paper Release, is infused with fire and wind Chakra, making it even better than commercially available Explosive Tag!
This isn't just a talisman; it's a human money-printing machine!
Based on this alone, Konan's status in Haruma's heart has even surpassed that of Kakuzu and Kisame!
Konan looked down at the conspicuous 0.5% profit margin in the contract, and her lips twitched involuntarily.
How many times would it take to squeeze every last drop of profit to reach the 10 billion needed for the revival?
Moreover, it's not just Nagato, there's also Yahiko, and...
Master Jiraiya was among the first members of Akatsuki in their fight against Hanzō.
Based on this calculation, it's a bottomless pit that can never be filled!
