Open the Land of Waves 3

Late at night, Makoto took one last look at doing a C-rank mission to the bankrupt duo, and only after he was sure that the two of them had really fallen asleep, did he then put his hands in his pockets and carefully walked towards the topmost floor of the hospital.

Even though before that, he had already used his illusion to control the entire hospital, Zabuza and Hatsuyuki were heavily injured and incredibly tired. Before, the two people were just holding on with a breath of air, and now that this chest of air has been released, it is now feared that they are... but there is no harm in being careful.

The plan had all been carried out to this stage, and he really didn't want to see any more twists and turns.

Not long after, Makoto walked into the hospital director s office.

Under Makoto's genjutsu, Mr. Dean had already gone ahead and rested early, and there were only two people, Terumi Mei and Kakuzu, in the shabby but clean office.

Kakuzu leaned against the wall with a bland expression.

At his age, what kind of shit hadn't he seen before. Kakuzu was in such a state most of the time when there was no money involved.

And Terumi Mei...

Anyway, the expression was weird.

"Don't be so nervous, it's just part of the plan."

Makoto immediately stepped forward.

It was logical that Kakuzu and Terumi Mei shouldn't be allowed to meet. Terumi Mei just had a high knucklehead index at the moment, it wasn't like she was a fool.

As soon as she saw Kakuzu and Makoto naturally understood a lot of things.

But there were some things that couldn't be said without telling her.

Makoto did not want to kill all the ninja of the four great hidden villages.

He just wanted to solve problems, not people.

Some people deserved to die, while others did not.

Moreover, sharing secrets appropriately could also enhance the relationship between each other.

"I really didn't expect that the original Akatsuki organization was also your people." Terumi Mei's expression was subtle, both helpless and slightly fearful, "You obviously already possess such power... you in the end..."

This woman seemed to have misunderstood his relationship with Nagato.

Nagato really wasn't his person.

It's just that the two of them are on similar paths, so they can help each other out a lot of the time.

"Things aren't what you think... In fact, my relationship with Kakuzu-san is the same as yours and mine."

Terumi Mei was just helpless as well as fearful before, but after hearing Makoto say that, she immediately took a dozen or so steps back, and her expression was even more horrified as if she was looking at an ultimate big pervert.

"Makoto! I didn't expect that you are actually good at this... -

"One can't, at the very least one shouldn't."

Makoto understood Terumi Mei's meaning in an instant.

And so his blood pressure brushed up.

"I only like beautiful girls! Even if you don't want to believe in my character, at the very least you must believe in my lustful heart!"

"But which one in your harem is a beautiful maiden?"

...If Terumi Mei said it like that, it seemed to be true.

Makoto suddenly felt a bit of pressure.

Terumi Mei continued to look disgusted.

In the end, it was Kakuzu who helped round up the conversation.

"Both of you, that's enough. I'm here to make money, not to watch you guys flirt! -

"When do we do the next step?"

Yes, Kakuzu was an inhumane guy, and he didn't want to be human again.

So the way to communicate with Kakuzu became rather simple - interest.

Makoto told Kakuzu that there was a country's interests to talk about, and he dropped everything and came running his ass over here.

To be fair, the situation in the Land of Waves is so bad right now that it can be said that it's like truly wanting for nothing.

But Kakuzu didn't mind.

Because after enjoying the pleasure of gorging himself, the current Kakuzu was open to windfalls.

No matter how bad the Land of Waves was, it was still a country. As long as you grasp the scale, invest some capital, modernize them, to a set of sustainable fishing strategy, don't give the leek root also Karma broken, that is not more than every day killing people to earn a lot more.

Africa's various benevolent rulers in their respective territories, can make a few hundred million it.

In dollar.

Self-raising also hard work for a lifetime, but also made a few hundred million.

Also in RNB.

How can Kakuzu be compared to Jiraiya.

The Land of Wave is full of problems right now, and it's a good thing that the people in it are at the point where they're poor, so Makoto decided to help them out with Zabuza at the center of it all.

If the plan worked, Kakuzu would become one of the invisible shareholders of the Land of Waves, making a huge profit; Terumi Mei would gain a poor but firm political ally, further solidifying her position; and both Zabuza and Hatsuyuki would gain an aibo for each other.

Even Makoto will get a Kiri that continues to be divided, but continues to be close to him.

This was truly a happy ending for all.

Though the process was more or less groovy.

"Next words, wait for another three or four days, at the very least wait until Zabuza can barely get off the ground before saying... Do it now, he may not be able to hold out."

Zabuza, this unlucky child, was in Makoto's calculations from beginning to end.

Makoto wasn't worried that Zabuza would come off the hook, because all the current events were all based on his logic.

The pig-killing plate looks childish, but it can be successful every time, not because of anything else, but because it targets the weaknesses of human nature from the beginning.

Zabuza wanted a companion, but didn't want to admit it, so Terumi Mei "forcibly" assigned one to him.

Zabuza is a macho man who doesn't like the weak or the strong, so the Chunin Hatsuyuki.

Zabuza has been through a real war, he knows the cruelty of war, and in the deepest part of his heart, he is always afraid that he will be abandoned, so Hatsuyuki will never abandon him.

Even the fact that he managed to escape with difficulty, only to meet a doctor who was unwilling to save him, as well as the people who were willing to save him, matched his inner needs - the former matching his many years of experience, and the latter what he had been dreaming of.

If I have to say there are any surprises, it's the level of medical care in the Land of Wave...

Kakuzu had been extremely measured in his actions, and Zabuza's injuries had actually been within the allowed range.

Seems to be panicked, but in fact as stable as an old dog.

But the medical level of the country of Wave is too poor, there is no choice but to let Kakuzu on.

Kakuzu seems to be a murderous maniac, but its medical standard is actually very high, although it is essentially a wild origin, but good use is also really good use.

The kind that Hidan says yes to when he sees it.

However, the impression Kakuzu had left on Zabuza before was just too deep, and Kakuzu was afraid that even if he had amazing make-up skills, he wouldn't be able to hide it completely, so Makoto simply took it on himself.

He was already level ready to use genjutsu to control Zabuza at any time.

It's just that the injury may be too serious, or maybe Makoto's mind is not on Zabuza at all... In short, it's 50 million for nothing, and I'm happy.

And the next thing they're going to do is have Zabuza, who is being pleaded with by the people of Land of Waves, defeat the evil archdemon Kakuzu, who was hired by a socially energized group.

-No matter what the truth is, they are all reinforcements invited by dynamic groups.

That makes the logic work.

Akatsuki is the bad guy, while Terumi Mei and Zabuza are both good guys.

Everyone gets what they want.

"Two or three days? ...That's the longest you can stay in the Land of Water, right?"

"Pretty much. After all, it's not like me, a Hokage, to stay in Kirigakure all the time when I'm fine. There have been inexplicable rumors before that when I go out, I'm going to fuck up an industry or a country... More bad rumors about me would be bad for Konoha after all."

Kakuzu laughed.

Terumi Mei, on the other hand, inclined her head.

"Hey, what do you guys mean by that! You guys think I'm the one who wants it!"

... ...

Kakashi sat in the security room, eating his bear cookie while watching the monitor.

-Don't know why, it seems like everyone likes to steal his bear cookies, it's not like the group can't afford them... Could it really be that the cookies in other people's hands smell better?

Forget it, it doesn't matter, it's better to do the right thing now.

The objects that showed up on that end of the monitor were naturally Zabuza and Hatsuyuki.

There were thousands of jutsu used in the Naruto world for detection and observation, and many of these detection jutsu were very effective.

It was only that these two were true ninjas, and it was inevitable that they would be discovered by them after using them for a long time.

In this regard, the products of the pure technology side were a bit more effective instead.

It was bullying the two of them for their low education and not recognizing this kind of high technology that had just come out of the lab.

Of course, Zabuza's combat experience is quite rich, really use it for a long time, maybe it can be directly discovered by him by intuition...

"It's just a matter of these few days, it shouldn't be... Well, is it coming so soon?"

Under the camera, Zabuza was writing a letter.

Writing a letter of request for help to Terumi Mei.

As a relatively pure traditionalist ninja, Zabuza usually didn't think too much about the great power game when he was on the move.

But the Land of Waves mission is really not simple, if it is said that at the beginning of the mission, Zabuza was not too concerned about it, then after the experience of almost being disliked by Kakuzu, he still chose very wisely to ask Terumi Mei for help.

Losing to Kakuzu is not a shame, after all, he is also considered a former famous elder.

But if for the sake of his so-called face, he is still holding on and refusing to ask for help... but if Tazuna dies and the mission of the Land of Waves is canceled, not to mention Kakuzu will not let go of him, Terumi Mei will not let go of him as well.

At this point, Zabuza thought very clearly - what he didn't know was that even if he asked for help now, no reinforcements would come.

Waiting for Zabuza, it will be a grueling battle with his life at stake.

This is not to say that where he offended the Godaime Hokage, have to make him miserable, it is really... because the effect of such a show is better, convenient to publicize.

Easily won, which is not as good as experiencing a bloody battle, and ultimately, under the belief of love and justice, the clinical burst of seeds, and ultimately defeated the strong enemy to look good.

It doesn't matter if the plot is clichéd, people just like it.

Seiya does sit-ups so many times, everyone just loves to see it.

T/N: Seiya from Saint Seiya: Knights of the Zodiac

At the same time, it's a surefire way for Zabuza to redeem himself.

In any case, he killed all of his contemporaries... open a harem have to go through an inch of harem an inch of blood, half a foot of white silk half an inch of heart. Like Zabuza this situation, not dead and alive countless times, those of his classmates have gone to the Pure Land will not agree to...

But Kakashi didn't care about the unlucky things Zabuza was destined to go through in the future, what caught his attention was the fact that a few people from the country of Wave arrived at the hospital and came to visit him.

One of them was better dressed and seemed to have some decency, seemingly a village chief or something of the sort.

This was actually part of Makoto's script - though these people hadn't been sent out by them, but rather they had taken it upon themselves to want to talk to Zabuza.

For the people of Land of Waves, this was a risk.

Because past experiences had taught them that ninja were a very vicious existence, literally killing at every turn.

But the situation had become such that the wise men of the Land of Waves chose to look forward first, as opposed to sinking forever.

Without enough commissions of their own, Zabuza from Kiri clearly became a very good choice.

Kakashi looked through the camera, deadpanning the full fluctuation of Zabuza's expression.

Just as Makoto thought, after a long, long silence, Zabuza agreed to the request for the two sides to join forces.

This is indeed not in line with Zabuza's panther manic character, but Zabuza is now heavily injured, and Kiri's reinforcements will not know when they will arrive, even if it is a panther manic old man like Zabuza... Above all, what they are going to do is essentially not in conflict with Zabuza.

What Zabuza has to protect is Tazuna from being killed by the Kakuzu hired by those socially viable groups.

What Tazuna is trying to do is build a bridge for the Land of Waves, and what these villagers want is to build a bridge and eventually start a nation.

Both sides actually have the exact same goal.

In that case...

"Then it's as you guys said... When I'm better from my injuries, I'll go take care of those guys!"

With his previous experience, even if he fully recovered to his peak state, Zabuza didn't have the confidence to defeat Kakuzu.

But on the flip side, he didn't need to defeat Kakuzu either.

Kakuzu was a notorious money-grubber, he didn't care about good and evil, as long as the money was there, anything could be negotiated.

The reverse was also true.

If his employers died, given Kakuzu's character, he shouldn't continue to pester them - what was the point of pestering them any further, when no one was paying him commissions anyway?

What Zabuza was best at was supposed to be assassination.

Killing a few ordinary people could basically be said to be without any difficulty.

With the villagers willing to provide information, he felt that this matter would not be too difficult.

Hearing Zabuza say this, the people were all happy. Without Zabuza asking, they left a few people down to take care of Zabuza.

The remaining villagers weren't idle either, and took advantage of this time to start stringing together connections everywhere to try and gain the support of more forces.

The average villager couldn't really do it, but there really were some people in the Land of Waves who were more knowledgeable and prestigious - ordinary farmers couldn't think of building a bridge and convincing other people about it.

Before this, Makoto had already ignited the mood within the Land of Waves. This time, Makoto deliberately didn't get deeply involved, which certainly made the inexperienced people of the Land of Waves make a lot of messes, but...

In any case, this was the first step that they had taken.

With this first step, things will be better in the future.

However, for Makoto, this still had some hidden dangers.

If there is no blood, many people will always be lucky. In the face of a bigger storm later on, they may even easily fall back... This can t be done.

Makoto never thought that those noble things would obediently leave the political arena.

It was inevitable that they would fight each other and even use Jinton (Dust Release) - Nine Clans Stripping Technique on each other.

T/N: 'Nine Clans Strippling Technique' refers to 'Detachment of the Primitive World Technique' (with the exception of 2 chinese character difference, everything else is the same), and it's also a Chinese meme

Makoto had no way of knowing what the future would become. But at the very least, he had to pare out the weaklings in advance.

It was fine to be timid, but what they were going to do next was a game reserved for the brave.

As a matter of course, Makoto was back to making things difficult for the people of Land of Waves.

Thus, on a certain silent night, the group of socially energetic groups controlled by Makoto once again converged.

With various cold weapons in their hands, they surrounded the hospital where Zabuza was.

When they began their attack, most of the leaders in the Landd of Waves were in the hospital discussing how to get rid of those who were hindering them from starting a nation.

The two sides didn't even have the decency to say some trash talk, they just straight up fought.

In front of a life and death crisis, everything became obvious.

The guy who used to boast and only thought of escaping when things came to a head became incredibly obvious. At the same time, strong people who were usually unassuming, but could withstand all the pressure in a pinch, began to show their heads.

Many people lived mediocre lives, not that they were really bad in themselves. Often, all they need is a chance...

And now, the opportunity came.

Under Makoto's secret domination, the two sides fought extremely hard. But because the dynamic group side never made up for it, the villagers bleeding all over their bodies did look miserable, but in fact, no one died at all.

...It s just that the people in the melee won t notice this.

And while everything was getting chaotic, Kakuzu avoided the crowd and came to Zabuza and Hatsuyuki.

After a few days of recuperating, the two had recovered quite a bit.

But now they have to face Kakuzu, the two are really...

But unexpectedly, Kakuzu who appeared in front of the two again didn't directly make a move, but instead talked to the two.

"Hey, two brats... you guys go."

"...What?"

Kakuzu, like all villains, slowly began to explain why.

-He did his best to never look at Kakashi's camera.

"In essence, I'm just a professional killer. I don't care about good, I don't care about evil, I just want to make money - my employers don't care how many people I kill, they don't pay me an extra paycheck or two for the extra work I do, they just want to see Tazuna's head."

"If that's the case, why be so aggressive?"

"Kid, we have no prior grievances. So... get out of the way and let me kill Tazuna. -

"I get the head, you keep your life, we both get what we want, isn't it the best of both worlds? -

"As humiliating as it is to fail a mission, you saved your life at the very least. You are still very young, there is still room for development, in the future, your strength may even be able to advance a step, become as strong as me. It's too much of a pity to die here like this. -

"You were defeated by me, everyone knows that you are inferior to me. Even if the new Mizukage Terumi Mei knows about it, I'm afraid she won't blame you - or is it that your loyalty to Terumi Mei transcends everything?"

Kakuzu did his best to try and pull in the hatred of Zabuza, as well as those who might see this image in the future.

How the others reacted, Kakuzu didn't know yet, but Zabuza's reaction could be said to be quite intense.

"-What are you babbling about!"

Since the beginning, Terumi Mei had not received Zabuza's sincere allegiance.

"Hmph... If you're not my opponent, then why do you need to be my enemy? Is there anything more important than money in this world?"

Zabuza wouldn't answer such a question.

But Hatsuyuki would.

"Kakuzu-san... You don't have nothing but money, do you? -

"But Zabuza-sama doesn't!"

Although they were all lines that had been designed long ago, when they were really heard in the ears, they were still unusually harsh.

The cold color in Kakuzu's eyes grew.

"Really don't know how to die brat... go to hell!"

Kakuzu said so, and with one strike, he smashed Hatsuyuki out.

Hatsuyuki's injuries were already not healed, and now he received a blow from Kakuzu, and now his entire body has been plunged into the wall, and his life and death are unknown.

Zabuza had the intention to rescue him, but in the end, he was seriously injured and his reaction was slower than a beat. When he reacted, everything is too late...

Kakuzu coldly looked at Zabuza.

"What, the executioner who killed all of his classmates will also be angry?"

Zabuza was really angry.

He didn't care about anything, because he already had nothing. And now, Kakuzu was trying to destroy the partner that he was so hard to get, and was about to get again...

"I'll kill you!"

Facing Kakuzu, who was far stronger than himself, Zabuza let out a beast-like roar.

The powerlessness, anger, and ultimately madness of the past seemed to have traveled through time and space and reunited with him at this moment.

Zabuza opened his mouth, his teeth as sharp as blades.

"Hmph, you lost dog... If you can do it, come and do it!"
