From the Navy Admiral to the Gotei 13

As for the reward for Kakuzu, Diarmait had already paid it all.

So it makes sense to end it now.

"It seems that you have to leave for something?" Diarmait asked again.

Kakuzu nodded calmly in response, then said, "A very unique guy invited me to go to Tianzhiguo to do a mission."

“Then it seems the reward must be very high.” Diarmait said with a smile.

"Yes, very high." Kakuzu also smiled. Then he was silent for a while, and then said, "What about you?"

Diarmait frowned, looking a little troubled, but did not speak.

Seeing this, Kakuzu no longer hesitated and asked directly, "Do you want to team up together?"

“What do you mean?” Diarmait asked.

"Ninjas generally don't fight alone, and I'm the same. In fact, don't look at me like this, I used to have quite a few teammates." Kakuzu said in a calm tone.

"And then? Where are your teammates?" Diarmuid asked with amusement.

"They were such a drag, so I killed them all for money." Kakuzu said openly, without any sense of shame at all.

Maybe he thought, this is not a big deal?

“So being your teammate is a really high-risk job…” Diarmait complained.

"It's because I'm too incompetent, so that's why. But you're different, Diarmait. If it were you, you would definitely be a very compatible teammate with me." Kakuzu looked at Diarmait and said seriously.

"I think you just want to steal my money," Diarmait said after thinking for a moment. Kakuzu was stunned for a moment, then said, "That's right."

"You better at least hide your shameless thoughts!" Diarmuid said helplessly.

Kakuzu is a straightforward guy who says whatever he wants to say. He is very straightforward and stubborn.

But then again, the Bear Kingdom is really not that interesting. Although the Gold Exchange can bring good profits to Diarmait, it is impossible to really restrain him.

If he were alone, he would be unfamiliar with the place and he would know the methods of many ninjas but not the reasons behind them. Therefore, it would be very troublesome for him to go out. Especially now that the Ninja World War is underway and there is an old villain like Uchiha Madara hiding behind them.

Therefore, Diarmait was not very happy to run around alone like a headless fly.

But if there was a veteran ninja like Kakuzu leading the way, he would still be happy to go out and take a look.

Participating in these so-called "missions" would give him a real understanding of what a ninja really looked like, and would also help him make arrangements for his future ideas based on these situations.

Speaking of which, Diarmait was quite pragmatic and didn't intend to make any "powerful" plans on a whim.

He has already experienced this pain.

For example, when I first joined the Naval Intelligence Department, I had a lot of fancy ideas, but in the end, they all turned out to be a mess.

Jiao didn't say anything, just stood quietly by and watched Diarmait think, without any hurry.

After about five minutes, Diarmait nodded and said, "Okay, let's go and take a look together. I'm curious about these things too." "Is it a deal?" Kakuzu said after thinking for a while.

“Well, it’s a deal.” Diarmait said.

"Well, let me tell you about the situation. The person who sent me the communication is called Scorpion. He is a former member of the Sand Village and a descendant of the village's high-level officials. He is known as a genius puppeteer. Generally, people in the ninja world call him 'Scorpion of the Red Sand'." Kakuzu said softly.

Diarmuid's eyes lit up. Scorpion of the Red Sand was the fuse of the Third Ninja World War.

He killed the Third Kazekage and turned him into his own human puppet.

This caused the core of the Sand Village to collapse directly, and then it was forcibly opened by the Cloud Village. At this point, the Third Ninja World War broke out.

Judging from Kakuzu's tone, he seemed to be unaware of these secrets.

It's not surprising that the disappearance of the Third Kazekage took more than twenty years to be solved...

Before this, the people of Sand Village always thought that the Third Kazekage was missing, but he was not dead and could not be dead.

Because everyone in the Sand Village believed that the Third Kazekage was extremely powerful and was known as the strongest Kazekage in history.

But in Diarmait's opinion, the people of Sand Village were just having fun.

As one of the five major countries and one of the five hidden villages, there is no doubt that the Wind Country and the Sand Village are truly at the bottom of the list.

It is simply a shame for a great country.

How weak has the Sand Village become?

Bragging about the strongest wind shadow all day long is just self-consolation and self-deception.

I guess Scorpion couldn't stand these ostriches who were obsessed with their own fantasies, so he ran away.

If he really stayed in the Sand Village, perhaps this village would become a constraint on him and limit his growth.

But getting back to the point, Diarmait was still surprised that Jiaodu had contact with that Scorpion guy.

Since he was curious, Diarmuid asked, "I know the Scorpion of the Red Sand, but I heard that he is rather aloof and aloof. How did you get to know him?"

"Me?" Jiao Du looked at Diarmait with a strange look, then said, "That guy is obsessed with human puppets, and I'm just a corpse collector. How do you think we know each other?"

"Good boy, so you are his supplier of raw materials!" Diarmait suddenly realized.

Scorpion is obsessed with human puppets. To study this forbidden technique, he definitely needs a large number of corpses to practice. Kakuzu has found a job for him!

"That's about right." Kakuzu ignored Diarmait's teasing and said, "This time he invited me to the Land of Rice to work together."

"Cooperation on what?" Diarmait asked.

"That guy is not interested in anything else, of course he is going to collect the bodies." Jiao Du said calmly.

After a brief pause, he continued, "According to his intelligence, the Hidden Cloud Village is about to go to war with Konoha. Judging from the current strength of the five major hidden villages, Konoha is undoubtedly the strongest, but the Hidden Cloud Village is not bad either. They have always claimed to be second and have been fighting endlessly with the Hidden Rock Village. ... Now it seems that they want to prove that they are the strongest by defeating Konoha."

"To be honest, it feels a bit like a dream." Diarmait complained.

Although this class concept is very unpleasant, we have to admit that the wealthy families in the ninja world are stronger than ordinary ninjas, much stronger.

But Konoha is the kind of place where wealthy families gather.

Looking back at the Hidden Cloud Village, it is in a miserable state.

There are basically no wealthy families.

The reason why the Hidden Cloud Village can stand firm is because they are not afraid of death and are quite violent. The ninjas of the Hidden Cloud Village throughout the generations have all been very strong-willed. They will fight until they are convinced and will not give up until they die.

Because they are ruthless enough, they can stand firm.

Unfortunately, although they are ruthless, they are of little use in the face of strength, and are ultimately far inferior to Konoha.

"It doesn't matter. Whether it's the five major countries or the small countries, being born in this era is a sin. Ninjas are particularly dark, so it doesn't matter to me who wins or loses." Kakuzu said coldly.

But before Diarmuid could speak, he continued, "However, a fierce battle is inevitable. Both the Hidden Cloud Village and Konoha have powerful ninjas. If these ninjas die on the battlefield, their bodies will be worth money..."

"So this time we go there to cooperate with the Red Sand Scorpion, kill some powerful masters, and collect their bodies?" Diarmuid asked after thinking for a while.

"That's right." Kakuzu nodded, and then continued, "That guy's intelligence is quite good. If nothing unexpected happens, the Hidden Cloud Village and Konoha will have a big fight in the Land of Rice. It's not too late to go now."

After thinking about it, maybe I could meet someone from the Uchiha clan on the battlefield, and maybe I could do some research on the Sharingan.

At the same time, during this period, the Senju clan had not yet been completely wiped out, and many members of the Senju clan were also active on the battlefield. It would be a good thing if two could be captured.

Konoha has many bloodline limits, such as the Byakugan, which can all be studied.

The Hidden Cloud Village also has some powerful things, and Diarmait wants them all.

After figuring it out, Diarmait asked, "When do we set off?"

"Let's wait a little longer. We can't just waste the exchange money. Let's go back and withdraw all the money and keep it for emergencies. Then we can set off again (Zhao Zhao Zhao)." Kakuzu said.

This guy's excuses sound good, but he's actually just asking for money.

Diarmait was too lazy to expose him, as it was a nonsensical matter, so he agreed to his arrangement.

Then, the two went back to deal with the matters of the gold exchange, and then, led by Kakuzu, they embarked on the journey of no return from the Country of Bears to the Country of Fields.

The Bear Country has a very advantageous geographical location. It is a small country, indeed, a small peninsula country.

It only borders Konoha in a small part. To the west is the Land of Water Taki, and to the east is the Land of Hot Springs. It is sandwiched between these two unfortunate small countries. Except for bordering the Land of Fire, the other big countries have nothing to do with it, so relatively speaking, it is peaceful after all.

In the country of bears, if you keep going east, you will enter the country of soup, and then cross the country of soup to reach the country of fields.

Tianzhiguo is a very miserable country.

To its south is Konoha, and to its north are the dogs raised by the Hidden Cloud Village. The Frost Country.

So it can be said that it is surrounded by external forces on all sides, east, west, south and north, and it can easily be surrounded by others.

Later, Tian Guo Kuni met Orochimaru, the scientific research maniac.

He conducted extensive academic research in the Land of Rice, founded the Sound Village, made himself the boss, and brought endless trouble to the unfortunate Land of Rice.

In about ten days, Kakuzu took Diarmait through the Kingdom of Bears and the Kingdom of Soup and arrived at the unfortunate Kingdom of Fields.

Then, Kakuzu began to contact his employer, Scorpion of the Red Sand.

Diarmuid was recalling what he had seen and heard along the way, which was quite interesting.

Chapter 473: Scorpion of the Red Sand appears, is the target Uchiha Kagami?

The deserted village was deserted because of the war. The people who originally lived here either died or moved away.

So this small village, which should have been a peaceful place, is now dead silent.

Diarmuid sat on a millstone at the entrance of the village, a cigarette in his mouth, and missed the cigars that were specially provided in the pirate world.

Slowly exhaling a puff of smoke, Diarmait looked back at Kakuzu who was busy.

More than ten minutes ago, Diarmait and Kakuzu met a group of Konoha ninjas here. They should be the vanguard, scouts or something like that.

They were also fighting with the ninjas from the Hidden Cloud Village who were leading the charge.

Then they were all taken care of by that old bastard Kakuzu, and not a single one escaped.

As a representative of those who love money more than his life, Kakuzu is collecting their bodies at this time.

"Hey, hey, that guy is already burnt, and you still want him?" Diarmait complained helplessly when he saw Kakuzu picking up the charred body of a ninja from the Hidden Cloud Village.

"It doesn't matter. That guy will collect any kind of corpse, even if it's broken into pieces on the ground." Jiao Du said calmly, and at the same time, he made a seal with his hand and sealed the corpse into the scroll.

"So, in your eyes, that Red Sand Scorpion is just a sucker?" Diarmuid said with a smile.

"No, he is a very good client. I like clients like this." Kakuzu said calmly.

"Hahahaha...you two are really a good match." Diarmait laughed.

At this moment, a strong wind blew from behind him. Diarmait turned around calmly, raised his hand and grabbed a flying kunai accurately in his hand.
