From the Navy Admiral to the Gotei 13

Kakuzu's face suddenly changed, he was startled and instinctively took a few steps back. A kunai slipped from his sleeve and was grasped in his hand.

At that moment just now, he felt as if he was facing a ferocious tiger. It was extremely dangerous and his heart was pounding!

It’s not that a little bit of domineering power scared Jiaodu, so it proves that Jiaodu is not that good.

The main reason was the surprise, Kakuzu had never come into contact with such power before.

Being caught off guard, one is naturally frightened.

When Diarmait saw Kakuzu like this, a smile appeared on his face again.

Although his strength has been suppressed, it does not mean that Diarmait has no ability to survive in this world. Basically, he estimates that he is still in the second echelon of this world.

That's about the level of the Five Kage.

Going further up, there are perverts like Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama.

Faced with such a pervert, even Diarmait in his prime would probably not be able to handle it.

The first point is that his strength is basically based on his physical fitness and fruit ability. He is still lacking in mental or spiritual means. Diarmuid feels that he cannot deal with illusions and the like.

Not to mention Uchiha Madara's Sharingan.

This is no longer a problem of strength gap but a problem between power systems.

Just like the Conqueror's Haki, most vice admirals in the navy can withstand it, but Kakuzu would be terrified if he came into contact with it even a little.

The principle is the same. Diarmuid has no resistance to illusions and the like. If Xihihong does something to him, he will be in trouble.

Therefore, Diarmait is quite cautious about his position here.

In a head-on confrontation, he is not afraid of anything like Naruto, but he still has great shortcomings in his ability to resist all kinds of strange ninjutsu, illusion, sealing techniques and the like. These shortcomings must be made up as soon as possible, otherwise they will become his fatal weakness!

Seeing that Diarmait was merely displaying his strength and had no intention of actually attacking, Kakuzu felt relieved, considering that this guy was generous and put away his kunai. "Haki? I've been in the ninja world for so many years, but I've never heard of such power."

“If you had heard of it, it wouldn’t be called a top secret.” Diarmait said with a smile.

Kakuzu's impression of Diarmait had changed again. This guy must be a very strong man, but the power system he used was completely different from that of a ninja...

Kakuzu was still very curious about this new and unknown power. In addition, Diarmait was generous and offered a reward, and he really had nothing to do as he was alone.

So this deal is quite exciting.

"Okay, I will teach you ninjutsu. If you teach me this power, the reward... is twenty thousand taels, not a cent less. I can't guarantee how much you can learn in the end. Of course, since I have received the money, I will definitely teach you everything I know... um... the five attribute ninjutsu, excluding the secret techniques." Kakuzu said after thinking for a while.

After a brief pause, he seemed to hesitate again, then said, "If you really want to learn the secret technique, I have a Di Yuan Yu here. If you pay more... ahem, I can consider teaching you."

Diarmait???

Sure enough, this guy is just a money-grubber!

But forget about things like Di Yuanyu. After learning that thing, you will look like neither human nor ghost, which will seriously affect your appearance.

Moreover, the core of this technique lies in immortality, and secondly in the ability to master the power of the five attributes of ninjutsu.

Diarmait didn't care about his immortality. He didn't say he was immortal, but at least he was in an immortal state now, so he would be fine as long as he was not killed by others.

As for the power of the five attributes, try to see if you can master it yourself first. If not, we can learn it later.

“No need.” Diarmait waved his hand.

Kakuzu looked a little disappointed when he heard that.

"Twenty thousand taels, not a cent less. I will also teach you the power of dominance. Of course, how much you can learn depends on your ability. I won't keep it for myself." Diarmuid said seriously.

"Very good, then let's sign the contract..." Kakuzu said as he slipped another scroll out from his sleeve.

This guy has a strong sense of contract?

contract?

Soon, Jiaodu wrote something on the scroll, then handed it to Diarmait and said, "Sign and seal it."

Diarmait took a quick look and found no problem, so he signed the contract with Jiaodu immediately.

After the work was done, Diarmait said, "Go and bring the twenty thousand taels to Jiaodu."

Kakuzu felt even more satisfied with Diarmait. He was so generous that he had already paid the money before anything was done!

He secretly decided in his heart that as long as Diarmait was not too useless, he would teach him well.

"After the task is completed, there will be a generous gift for you." Diarmait said to Jiaodu again.

Kakuzu nodded and said, "Thank you very much."

Soon, the two boxes of gold that had been sealed before, as well as the 20,000 taels of silver, were handed over to Kakuzu.

After Kakuzu accepted it, he felt completely relieved.

Diarmait doesn't care much about money. He believes that the money he earns should be spent, so he is so generous.

A guy like him, who has a weak sense of belonging to this world, is very powerful, and doesn't have much moral integrity, actually doesn't really lack money, and he has too many ways to make money.

He didn't immediately pull Kakuzu to cause trouble.

Diarmait should first get familiar with Jiaodu so that he can have a more three-dimensional understanding of both sides.

I also got a general idea of ​​the situation outside from Kakuzu.

The two sides started chatting while eating.

Currently, according to Konoha's calendar, it should be the fiftieth year of Konoha.

That is fifty years after the first Hokage established the Hidden Leaf Village.

The current Hokage is the Sandaime, Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Now is the war period, which is the Third Shinobi World War.

The cause was that the Third Kazekage disappeared, neither alive nor dead.

If Diarmuid remembers correctly, he was killed by the rebellious Scorpion of the Red Sand and turned into a human puppet.

So the Sand Village was leaderless and at a loss, and then all the other countries started to have their own ideas.

The Hidden Cloud Village in the Land of Lightning took the lead and raided the Hidden Sand Village and the Land of Wind, which was considered the first shot fired in the Third Ninja World War.

After the fuse was lit, all parties could no longer hold back. The Land of Earth also declared war on the Land of Fire. The Hidden Rock Village and the Hidden Leaf Village were currently at war. The war between the two sides was placed... The Land of Grass and the Land of Rain.

That’s right, this is how big countries bully others. In order to prevent the war from destroying their own territory, they will start by fighting in small countries. If they cannot win the battle in 2.9, they will gradually expand the scale of the war.

After understanding this, combined with some information obtained from exchanging gold, Diarmait roughly understood what stage it was at.

The Battle of Kannabi Bridge has not yet begun. At present, in this Ninja World War, the one who shines brightly is not Minato Namikaze, but the Abby brothers of the Hidden Cloud Village. Their Thunder Plow and Hot Sword are feared in the Ninja World.

Konoha and the Iwagakure Village are still in the stage of mutual testing.

The Third Raikage isn't dead either...

Diarmait thought about it carefully and felt that there was nothing to meddle in and no benefit to be gained.

At least that's the case now, so I think we should stop interfering and just let them fight.

The right thing to do is to improve your own strength and master the power system of this new world.

As for Konoha...

There is a very ironic saying that actually fits this village very well.

That is the external enemy, which can never be defeated. Ultimately, all collapse comes from within.

In several Ninja World Wars, Konoha was always able to become the victorious country.

But all the devastating disasters are mostly caused by internal darkness and power struggles.

Konoha's decline comes from within.

Right now, Orochimaru, Danzo, and the others haven't started messing around yet, or rather, they haven't gotten too far. So, I can wait a little longer...develop my strength first. Who knows, maybe I can team up with these two old perverts and start something else?

Chapter 471 Kakuzu: Are you cheating? Monster!

In the wild mountains of the bear country.

Two figures are fighting.

One is Diarmait and the other is Kakuzu.

It didn't look like a fierce battle, but rather an exchange of ninjutsu.

"Fire Style. Great Fireball Technique!" Diarmait formed seals with his hands and opened his mouth to spit out a huge fireball.

The Great Fireball Technique is a unique ninjutsu created by the Uchiha clan during the Warring States Period. However, this ninjutsu is not a complicated fire-style ninjutsu, nor is it a secret technique that requires bloodline coordination or the like.

So over time, it spread.

In addition, it is powerful and easy to use, so it has become a common conventional fire-style ninjutsu. Basically, any ninja with fire-attribute chakra will have this skill to some extent.

From this, we can also see how great the influence of the wealthy families in the ninja world is.

Many ninjutsu were developed by themselves. Ordinary ninjas do not have the foresight and knowledge to achieve this.

These are just some of the things that have been spread out. Those that have not been spread out are the truly amazing ones.

In my impression, Konoha was a place full of powerful families, but since the Second Hokage, Senju Tobirama, he had been intentionally strengthening the village's centralization and suppressing the powerful families.

That's why there is this powerful scroll called 'Book of Seals'.

The Book of Sealed Ninjutsu basically collected all the ninjutsu of Konoha, including forbidden techniques, in addition to the secret techniques and bloodline limits of each family. Generally speaking, it can be called the 'Encyclopedia of Ninjutsu'.

This Book of Sealing was completely perfected by the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Although Sarutobi Hiruzen is not a ninja with a bloodline limit, the Sarutobi clan is also a powerful family in the ninja world with a long history. This old guy is also a powerful person. He learned from the second generation Hokage and is proficient in the five attributes of ninjutsu.

He is known as the Doctor of Ninjutsu. To put it simply, he knows all the conventional ninjutsu that does not require any bloodline limits as a medium!

That’s outrageous!

So for a long time, when the fame of the 12nd and th Hokage faded, Sarutobi Hiruzen was called the "strongest Hokage".

Exaggeration is definitely an exaggeration.

But from a ninja's perspective alone, without considering cheating, Sarutobi Hiruzen is indeed at the pinnacle of ninja.

Diarmait used a huge fireball technique, but Kakudo was not in a hurry. He didn't even need to form hand seals. The Earth Grudge Technique was very unique. It could release chakra directly from the heart and gather it into a ninjutsu.

The moment the huge fireball passed by, Kakuzu just symbolically made a "un" seal with his hands on his chest, opened his mouth and spat out a large pool of water.
