55 Intelligence

Land of Fire.

Near the Black Market.

In the forest under the dark night sky, at a clear field stood still a tall figure completely covered in a black coat.

"10 days huh...this much time should be enough to do necessary preparations"

Sigh...

"Going through all this just for some sealing jutsu and making the whole uzumaki clan my enemy, but then again with my future plans I'll make a lot of enemies anyway!"

"If I want to live freely without any fear, I have to be able to deal with the real enemy, the rest can be dealt with some time!"

Thinking that Naoki raised his head and gave the moon hanging on the sky long look, endless determination in his eyes.

Swish!

With nothing more to think about his actions that could possibly change his life a lot, Naoki quickly left the jungle and rushed towards the capital of land of fire, his next destination.

But just after an hour or so Naoki had left the black market, a person with green eyes and lower face from the nose covered with a black mask entered the black market.

He had a white clothe wrapped around his forehead and his upper body was bare with stitches on his body clearly seen.

All the bounty hunters seeing the person sucked in a deep breath with fear in there eyes, anyone who is involved in black market knows who this person is.

A nearly 100% mission success rate in black market speaks a lot about someone's strength.

Even the bald head at the front desk seeing him arriving without any second thought, lead him to a seperate room.

"As expected, you never fail in your task!"

In the room, the bald head took out a seperated head from the sack Kakuzu had handed and recognizing whose head was it, couldn't help but praise.

"300, 000...300, 001...300, 002...

Kakuzu though didn't seem to care about his praise as carefully he was counting all the money in the suitcase given to him.

Seeing Kakuzu ignoring him and focused on money, the bald head didn't mind as it was not the first time and was used to it.

Kakuzu is the oldest customer since he took over black market, he understands his past and knows kakuzu only trusts money, nothing else.

While Kakuzu was counting the money, bald head went outside and quickly brought a scroll, removing the strings around it to roll it open.

"You have been looking for a highly valued shinobi for years kakuzu, take a look it's finally here!"

"If you succeed, 50 million ryo is going to be yours!"

Said the bald head to Kakuzu after opening the scroll, the latters hands busy counting money going still hearing the amount, the green eyes gleaming.

Quickly without a second thought Kakuzu gazed at the scroll, surprise in his eyes increasing after seeing the information on the scroll.

"Is this news true?"

Kakuzu couldn't help but confirm in a hopeful tone, if this news was indeed true, the moment to make the most in his life was coming.

"Yes! Someone from Konoha provided us with this information, though we don't know his identity but in the past every information he leaked has been true!"

"Whoever it is, he truly has a grudge against Uchiha, quite a few got hunted due to him!"

Said the bald head with a curious face, really itching to know the identity of this news leaker hidden in the dark.

"If that's the case, then it's all set!"

"Ten days later, I'll add another reputated shinobi in my collection"

Said Kakuzu with clear excitement, couldn't wait to get his hands on the target.

"It's good to see you all pumped up but don't forget you have to deal with him before he meets with the uzumaki clan squad he is going to escort to konoha!"

"There are going to be three chunin and three genin with him as well, so finish your business quickly because if the uzumaki squad arrives to help him, you might even have a hard time escaping!"

Reminded the bald head about the danger to Kakuzu, 50 million wasn't that easy to get after all.

"Don't tell me what to do, I know my work!"

Responded Kakuzu coldly at his warning, he was a master of his work, he knew better how dangerous this could get if he got careless.

"Kagami Uchiha... enjoy the remaining days in your life...cause I'm soon putting an end to it!"

Thought Kakuzu with a dangerous look in his green eyes.

Soon Kakuzu left the black market as well, making the necessary preparations before his attack.

While Naoki next day noon, finally arrived at his destination.

Fire Town, the Capital of land of Fire.
