What Sarutobi Hiruzen wants to do most in his life is to surpass Senju Hashirama, the first Hokage, and accomplish what Senju Hashirama has not been able to do.
Build a real ninja country, the country of ninjas.
What he wants in his heart is to make Konoha stand above all ninja villages, unify the five ninja villages, and then unify the five major countries, change the current world environment, and make ninjas the legitimate masters of this world.
If Konoha's overall strength declines at this time, he will have no hope of completing the great cause in his heart.
After all, there is not much time left for him.
He is no longer young.
Uchiha Fugaku's cooperation gave him a lot of peace of mind.
But he frowned again.
"What on earth is Uchiha Fugaku thinking?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen was not happy at all, but felt worried about gains and losses.
The constant losses during this period made him doubt his IQ.
Uchiha Fugaku's thoughts were so deep that he couldn't guess what the other person was thinking.
"Raise the bounty to 100 million!"
Uchiha Fugaku must be solved as soon as possible.
Sarutobi Hiruzen's eyes were filled with murderous intent, and he couldn't wait a moment longer.
Uchiha Fugaku has become a pain in his heart.
As long as this continues, he will continue to doubt himself.
He hated feeling like this.
He was willing to pay for the extra 50 million out of his own pocket.
Adding up the money in his several small vaults can almost reach this value.
Money is something external to the body, Uchiha Fugaku must die.
Otherwise, he wouldn't even be able to sleep peacefully.
...
The black market in the Country of Silence is the most chaotic place in the ninja world, and almost all the people here are rebel ninjas.
They don't know when they will be hunted, and they live on the edge of death all day long. Everyone becomes extremely violent and will kill people if they disagree. Even Jonin will have a certain probability of being injured due to fighting here. , and even beheaded.
There are no rules or order here at all. As long as you are strong enough, you can get everything, and the people here are all extremely vicious.
The black market in the Country of Silence was very busy at this time, and many bounty hunters and rebel ninjas who had just completed today's mission gathered together.
It's just that they all remain wary of each other. After all, who here doesn't have bloody hands?
The mastermind behind the black market will not care about the killings among the rebellious ninjas who come to the black market.
For the mastermind behind the black market, no matter who of these traitorous ninjas died, they would not feel bad.
Moreover, if the traitorous ninja who completed the mission died due to killing each other, they would not have to pay for the bounty they deserved on the black market.
This is a windfall for the black market.
According to the rules of the black market, regardless of whether the task is completed or not, the money will remain in the black market's books and will never be refunded.
Once a bounty is placed, no one can withdraw it until the mission is completed.
This is the ironclad rule that the black market has adhered to for so many years.
Among all the rebellious ninjas, there was a particularly empty space around a puppet who was wearing red clothes and had a bloated body and a head like an old man.
Everyone knows what kind of monster is hidden inside this human puppet.
Xie, a member of "Xiao", codenamed Jade.
The grandson of Chiyo, the consultant of Sand Hidden Village in the Kingdom of Wind, and a genius puppet master.
This is a lunatic who is keen on making human puppets. He once assassinated the third Kazekage just to make the other party into a human puppet.
All those who offended Scorpion became human puppets collected by the other party. During this period, they had seen a dozen unlucky ghosts killed by Scorpion.
What appeared in front of them now was not Xion's true face, but the human puppet Fei Liuhu he made.
Fei Liuhu was made by Xiao from the body of a wandering ninja he killed, and he would hide in this puppet most of the time.
Fei Liuhu makes up for his weakness in close combat as a puppet ninja, with both offense and defense.
At this time, everyone is waiting for the black market manager to release new tasks.
Everyone has received the information that the price of the assassination mission released on the black market today is as high as 50 million.
This value makes everyone feel itchy.
This is comparable to the income of a medium-sized ninja village for an entire year.
After much difficulty, the black market manager finally came out.
That was a very average-looking man.
"Everyone, I believe everyone has received the news. Now I want to announce an assassination mission to everyone."
Although the voice of the black market manager was very low and hoarse, it sounded like it was ringing in everyone's ears.
The background of the black market is very complicated, and he does not belong to any of the five great ninja villages.
There are traces of black markets in many places in the ninja world, and there are also masters among the black market's subordinates.
However, they have always been responsible for accepting various assassination missions and never participated in the battles of the ninja world.
Over time, they have become a quite unique force.
"According to the request of the client, the task announced this time is an anonymous public task.
No one needs to take it, they only need to kill the target and bring back the evidence to get the reward.
And the amount of the reward this time is 100 million, which is quite An astonishing number.
If you can complete the task within 10 days, you can also get a 10% bounty increase." As
soon as the man finished speaking, everyone present opened their mouths.
A bounty of 100 million is rare even in history after the establishment of the black market.
They were curious about the identity of the target with a bounty on his head.
"Now I announce the identity of the bounty target. He is Uchiha Fugaku, the patriarch of the Konoha Uchiha family. We
only need to kill Uchiha Fugaku and bring back relevant evidence. After verification, we will hand over all the bounty to In your hands."
After the man finished speaking, he retreated, leaving everyone with shocked faces staring at each other.
"Uchiha Fugaku? I remember he was just an elite jounin, right? Killing him can get you 100 million? Isn't this a free gift?" "Is it
normal that this price should be calculated on Sarutobi Hiruzen's head? Did you report an error just now? Name?"
"I also think that the wrong name may have been given. After all, Uchiha Fugaku is not a powerful person, and he is not that valuable?"
"You don't care about him so much? Isn't it that the weaker the target, the easier it is to solve it? ? If the target is really Hiruzen Sarutobi, do you think you have the strength to complete this mission?"
"Yes, I have to set off quickly. If I kill Uchiha Fugaku within ten days, I can get a 10% bounty increase, which is 1,000 Ten thousand. If you go late, the money will be gone!"
...
Everyone was talking about it, as if the money was already within easy reach.
Although Konoha Village is a big village, none of them are good.
It is not difficult for them to sneak into Konoha Village.
The Uchiha family is no longer the powerful ninja family it once was, and there is no way they can stop them.
Uchiha Fugaku is dead!
Only a few people felt something was wrong.
If Uchiha Fugaku was really so bad, why would someone set a reward of 100 million for him?
They chose to abandon the mission.
