Naruto: The Brightest Star

Salamander Hanzo looked at the approaching Uchiha Star and subconsciously took a step back.

"What are you hiding from?"

Uchiha Xing chuckled, and his black pupils turned into the shape of Mangekyō Sharingan.

"Do you still remember what I said to you that day? It seems that you didn't listen at all. In that case, you can just become a puppet. Don't worry, I will take good care of the Rain Country."

As Uchiha Xing finished speaking, the light in Hanzo's eyes faded.

"It's time for this war to end."

Uchiha Xing said softly, and then began his plan.

Two years passed quickly.

In two years, the Rain Kingdom has undergone tremendous changes.

The first is the environment of the Rain Country. It is no longer as depressing as before. Although it is still raining, everyone has a smile on their face, showing their longing for life.

The river banks that run through the cities of the Rain Country are equipped with stone guardrails, the streets are paved with bluestone tiles, and there are one-centimeter-wide drainage pipes at regular intervals.

There are rain shelters for people to rest at regular intervals on the street.

The surrounding buildings are no longer all dark like they were two years ago. Instead, they have been replaced with warmer colors, and some businesses still have neon lights at their doorsteps.

The Rain Country also has a ninja school and a unique shopping mall.

Most importantly, the unique rice of the Rain Country is very popular among the nobles of the surrounding countries.

For this reason, the Rain Kingdom opened up trade between the three countries.

"Xiaoxing, this is the payment sent today."

Nohara Lin rubbed her aching forehead and put a thick pile of things on the table.

"I see. You can put it there. By the way, how is the planting building going?"

Uchiha Xing asked Nohara Lin without even looking up.

"I have already dealt with the matter over there."

Nohara Lin said softly, then hesitated for a moment, looked at Uchiha Xing and asked: "Xiao Xing, aren't you tired? Or are you looking for a few people to help?"

"Hey~ It's not that I don't want to find someone to help, it's just that they don't have a suitable one."

Uchiha Xing suddenly fell on the table like a punctured balloon.

As early as a year ago, Uchiha Xing became the youngest leader of the Rain Country under the "recommendation" of Salamander Hanzo.

And they began to vigorously rectify this rainy country, and the happiness index of the people here rose rapidly.

But at the same time, the affairs also increased little by little.

At first, Uchiha Xing was able to handle it alone, but later he took care of the affairs himself and handed over the planting-related matters to Nohara Rin.

Finally, Uchiha Xing found that the things he had to deal with now were almost more than what he had to deal with when he was an assistant to Senju Tobirama.

At this time, Uchiha Xing missed those people in Konohagakure Village who could handle things, especially the Nara clan.

"Now I just need someone who can help me handle my finances, but I haven't found the right person after searching around. It's okay to send them to do some things, but if they handle things like this, they might mess up my accounts."

Uchiha Xing was lying on the table, spinning his fingers in circles on the table.

Where can I find a suitable person who can manage accounts?

Uchiha Xing became a little worried.

"Accountant? Host, I remember there seemed to be such a person in your memoir scroll. Let me think about it, his name seems to be Kakuzu."

The system's voice sounded in Uchiha Xing's mind.

Kakuzu? Kakuzu? Kakuzu!

"Oh!"

Uchiha Xing sat up suddenly.

"How could I forget him!"

Uchiha Xing's sudden action startled Nohara Lin.

"Let me think about it. He is free right now. But how can I find him..."

Uchiha Xing frowned and thought, then instantly thought of a solution.

"Lin, you can help me watch the class for half a day. If there is anything urgent, please contact me using Den Den Mushi."

Uchiha Xing said as he handed the small Den Den Mushi to Nohara Lin. Its coverage range was enough to reach half of the Ninja World.

"I see."

Nohara Lin raised her hand and caught the snail-like creature that was only as big as her fist.

"I go first."

Uchiha Xing said this and left directly, found the ninja in charge of processing information and asked about the nearest underground gold exchange, and then left.

Uchiha Star didn't know where Kakuzu was, but she knew how to find him.

Uchiha Xing put on a mask and found an abandoned house based on what he knew.

Uchiha Xing raised his hand and pushed the door open. Countless smoke and dust rose up, and it was obvious that the room had been abandoned for a long time.

Uchiha Xing raised his hand to wave away the smoke and dust in front of him, then scanned the room, identified a few footholds, and quickly entered the house without leaving any obvious traces.

Uchiha Xing knocked on the wall and after making sure that there was an empty space, he opened the wooden fence under the wall, then entered the tunnel and closed the wooden board.

Uchiha Xing walked down the stairs as he spoke, and soon came to a flat ground. At the end of the ground was a metal wall that looked like a pawn shop, except that there was a small iron door behind the railing blocking the inside.

Uchiha Xing walked over, stood on tiptoe, and his hand could barely reach the iron door, then he knocked on the small iron door rhythmically.

"Wow."

The small iron door was opened from the inside.

"A mission or a bounty."

The person inside opened the small iron door and spoke subconsciously, then looked up and found that there was no one there.

"Audio hallucination?"

The man let out a light click of his tongue, then closed the small iron door.

Uchiha Xing, who was about to speak, heard the small iron door closing again, and greeted with a smile. Then he stood on tiptoe and knocked on the small iron door again.

"A mission or a bounty."

The person inside opened the small iron door again, but this time he still didn't see anyone.

Shit! Is someone playing a trick on me?

Annoyance instantly appeared in the man's eyes, and he did not notice that there were two hands clinging to the edge of the platform.

"I say, can't you just look down?"

Uchiha Xing said as he used both hands to push himself up on the edge of the platform and looked at the people inside.

Child?

There was a hint of surprise in the eyes of the person in charge, but he did not look down on Uchiha Xing just because he was a child.

Who knows if this is an old woman who likes to pretend to be a child.

"Hello, is this a mission or a commission?"

The person in charge looked at Uchiha Xing and asked again.

"I am issuing a commission. I am looking for a ninja named Kakuzu who used to be in Takigakure Village. I want to assign him a mission."

Uchiha Xing felt that it was a bit tiring to support himself with his arms, so he just sat down on the platform.

"A designated commission? In this case, the deposit will be higher. Please tell me the content of the designated task."

The person in charge said this and started to fill out the form with a pen.

"I will discuss the mission with him in person. You just need to make sure he goes to the Rain Country."

Uchiha Xing continued speaking.

"Ok?"

The person in charge frowned slightly upon hearing this and put down the pen he had picked up.

"Let me make it clear to you first. If you want to send him a task privately, we cannot guarantee your safety, and whether the other party agrees to accept the commission is not our responsibility."

The person in charge should first explain the disadvantages to Uchiha Xing to prevent him from causing trouble later.

"I know. As for whether he accepts my commission or not, that is a matter between the two of us."

Uchiha Xing nodded to show that he knew.

"Then please pay the full amount of one million."

Seeing that Uchiha Xing understood and made up his mind, the person in charge began to fill out the form and asked Uchiha Xing to pay the money.

"Huh??? Wasn't it a deposit? How did it become full payment?"

Although Uchiha Xing was not short of the money, he was still a little surprised to hear that the original deposit had become the full payment.

"Of course you have to pay the full amount. If you two can't come to an agreement and he kills you, who will pay the balance?"

The person in charge said this as a matter of course.

"Ah this..."

Uchiha Xing was silent for a moment, then took out one million yuan from the space.

"Then I'll trouble you."

Uchiha Xing said as he took the certificate handed over by the person in charge and then left.

The person in charge looked at Uchiha Xing's departing back, pondered for a while, then replaced the small iron door, then copied this special commission into several copies, tied them to carrier pigeons, and synchronized the commission information with other gold exchange offices.

The gold exchange was done very quickly, and that night, Uchiha Xing received a system prompt that an abnormal flame had entered the territory of the Rain Country.

"come yet…"

Uchiha Xing put on the clothes he had just taken off, and then followed the instructions on the map to where the outsiders were.

the other side……

Kakuzu was standing under the eaves of a house in a raincoat, hiding from the rain, looking at the strange assigned task in his hand.

It’s strange, why did he just say he was going to the Rain Country but didn’t mention the specific location?

If I hadn't thought about making a lot of money from the other party without any handling fees, I would never have taken such a strange task.

Kakuzu thought to himself, then put the letter of authorization away.

"Bah, bah."

The sound of footsteps came from afar, and Kakuzu instantly became alert, looking towards the figure approaching.

"Child?!"

Kakuzu looked at the man who was only about 1.2 meters tall and wearing a raincoat and walking towards him, and a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.

But his years of combat experience told him that no normal child would come to such a place alone at night.

Kakuzu's hand quietly reached for the weapon bag behind him and hooked the shuriken with his fingers. As long as he felt something was wrong, he would throw a few shurikens to test the opponent.

Soon, the dwarf came to a place not far in front of Kakuzu and looked up at him.

Looking at the man in front of him with only a pair of green eyes, Uchiha Xing chuckled and said, "You must be Kakuzu, I am your client, you can call me Yuzhixing."

Kakuzu looked at Uchiha Hoshi with a slight frown.

Both the voice and the appearance seem to be that of a child.

But a child who can be assigned tasks in a gold exchange is definitely not a simple child.

"You are the client? What do you want me to do?"

Kakuzu looked at Uchiha Star in a businesslike manner, without showing too much contempt.

"This doesn't seem like a good place to talk about things. Why don't we go talk somewhere else?"

Uchiha Xing smiled and invited Kakuzu.

Kakuzu thought about it for a moment, then accepted Uchiha Star's invitation.
