Chapter 173: Dealing with the Tsuchikage's Wrath

Natsuo rubbed his chin. Although Kakuzu loves money, he also has principles. He never deceives his business partners. Even if he loves money, he would never cheat on his benefactor.

When he says there's a high probability of becoming Kage-level, it probably means that she really has a good chance of becoming Kage-level.

So after thinking for a moment, Natsuo decisively said: "I'll take her in, but the price will be relatively lower."

Compared to a normal Kage, she only has one chance to reach the Kage level and cannot receive too high a reward.

Although Natsuo values Kakuzu's subjectivity, rules that maintain the integrity of the transaction are ultimately best for both parties.

Kakuzu is well aware of this but doesn't seem concerned. "But she possesses a special Kekkei Genkai... Isn't that an advantage?"

"Of course it's a bonus!" Natsuo nodded.

"If I told you she's young..."

"Just entered the age for marriage and childbirth."

Just entered the age for marriage and childbirth, and she's already a Jonin level?

This talent is quite impressive, no wonder Kakuzu dares to say that this kunoichi has a good chance of reaching the Kage level.

"That's also a bonus!" Natsuo said without hesitation.

"If I told you her identity is noble..."

A noble identity represents a strong lineage inheritance, that is naturally an advantage.

"If everything you say is true, I can pay according to the price of a Kage-level." Natsuo said without hesitation, but then curiously asked, "But who can you hold in such high regard?"

'How many people in the shinobi world are worthy of Kakuzu's admiration? I can't remember any kunoichi like that in the Naruto Series... Could she be an unknown kunoichi recently discovered by Kakuzu?'

"Hehe, I won't tell you that for now." Kakuzu chuckled.

Although he didn't think Natsuo would act before him to save having to pay him the reward, Kakuzu never took risks with money.

"Alright, contact me after you capture the person." Natsuo said nonchalantly.

"I understand..." Kakuzu's voice remained steady. "But Natsuo, I think you should understand that a noble identity and excessive talent in itself will inevitably cause some trouble..."

Natsuo laughed heartily. "What trouble could possibly stump me?"

"Good then." Kakuzu looked relieved and ended the conversation.

Natsuo thought: 'Why do I feel like Kakuzu is trying to trick me? Hmm, he probably wouldn't, right?'

Natsuo continued to peacefully revive the Uchiha clan at home.

With his efforts, Yuhi Kurenai became the next person to form a complete bond with him, and in addition to Ameyuri, he was also able to share the Shizenchikara with her.

However, unlike Ameyuri, the Shizenchikara that Natsuo shared with her did not experience a significant strengthening. The reason was that, lacking the same strength as Ameyuri, her body could not withstand Natsuo's continuous strengthening in a short period of time.

"Seriously, can't you slow down a bit?" Yuhi Kurenai complained.

Because Natsuo got excited about strengthening Kurenai she became pregnant in the process.

Natsuo chuckled and rubbed his chin. "It's not something I can control..."

Natsuo began to ponder: 'Who would have thought that the success rate would be so high? Could it be that forming a complete bond also has an effect on increasing the probability?'

...

Samui has finally given birth to a child.

[Offspring +1, comprehensive potential evaluation is 167, you gain Chakra +14, Living Corpse Reincarnation]

Natsuo said in his mind upon receiving the reward: 'Oh, it seems I received Orochimaru's body transfer technique....'

'Well, since this technique has to do with the soul, it may give me some ideas to improve resurrection techniques.'

Samui looked at her child with a hint of weakness, then turned to Natsuo. "Now that I've given birth, what are you planning to do to us... or rather, to me?"

"Kill me?" As someone who actually betrayed the Uchiha clan and almost caused many children to be kidnapped, he had already prepared himself for any punishment. Killing her would be the most normal choice.

"That would be a waste." Natsuo shook his head. "You are at least an Elite Jonin. Killing you casually would be a waste of resources."

"So what do you plan to do?" Samui's mouth curled up with a bitter smile. "Are you going to keep me around?"

"Aren't you afraid that another kunoichi like me will appear in the Uchiha clan?"

"I may have failed, but what if someone else succeeds... If you don't kill me, how will you suppress their evil intentions?"

Although all the spies who had infiltrated the Uchiha clan had basically abandoned their original spy work and focused wholeheartedly on raising their children, that did not mean that they could not betray the Uchiha clan.

There would always be women like Samui who are loyal to their village...

At the very least, if the village is willing to increase the rewards, there will be people tempted. This is something that cannot be prevented.

She looked at Natsuo with a bitter smile and said: "If you don't kill me, aren't you afraid that others will follow my example and cause significant harm to the Uchiha?"

Her own death was inevitable. Otherwise, it wouldn't be enough to deter others.

Unfortunately, she had experienced countless life-threatening crises and didn't die at the hands of those enemies, but died at the hands of the man who once possessed her body...

"No, you're thinking too much." Natsuo sighed lightly. "In fact, the major shinobi villages should no longer dare to lay a hand on my offspring."

"I didn't tell you when you were pregnant, but now..."

"Eight Tails was captured by me and taken to Konoha." Natsuo calmly said. "Your Raikage, I cut off all four of his limbs..."

"Most of the Kumo Shinobi in the front line fortress were killed by me, probably only a few elite Jonin are still alive."

"A while ago, the Kumogakure envoy came to surrender. I just sent back the Raikage, who had become a useless person, and it came at a great political and economic cost..."

"In today's shinobi world, no one dares to have ideas about the Uchiha clan."

Samui listened, dumbfounded. She hadn't been in contact with the outside world for a long time, having been under house arrest since she was brought back, isolated from any news.

So she had no idea what Natsuo had done during this time. The main force of a whole country's army was completely wiped out by him.

"Why don't you say you're the God of Shinobi?" Samui finally shook her head in disbelief.

'How could Raikage-sama, who was so strong, possibly fail? And be reduced to a useless person... It's too exaggerated!'

Natsuo had a strange smile on his lips. "Actually, you guessed right, people outside actually call me the God of Shinobi..."

Samui looked at Natsuo with an unbelieving expression.

Ten seconds later, Samui's expression remained unchanged. Thirty seconds later, Samui started to feel a little anxious.

Three minutes later...

"Did you lie to me?"

"Why would I lie to you?"

Natsuo's gentle voice shattered Samui's last hope. She seemed to lose all her strength in an instant, collapsing on the bed, her eyes lifeless.

"Never mind Kumogakure, Iwagakure, Kirigakure... no one will dare touch the Uchiha clan again while I'm here." Natsuo's tone was calm.

"So there's no need to worry about the problem you mentioned." Natsuo's lips curled up. "As for the punishment for you..."

"While having multiple wives may be sweet, men always have some new ideas they want to try."

"And generally, many of these ideas are not suitable for their loved ones..."

Samui will definitely remain under house arrest until she recovers from childbirth...

Although she did not cause any harm to the children and had intimate contact with Natsuo, he was not kind enough to forgive her.

On the other hand, Natsuo did not deceive her with his words. The prestige of being the number one person in the shinobi world is so great that no country would dare to harm his family so easily.

There was even an incident with the Iwa Shinobi that was mentioned by Sasuke himself.

In a letter he sent back to the village, he sarcastically commented: "Iwa Shinobi really embarrassed their will of stone. They said they had a strong will and wouldn't give in to anyone, right?"

"Natsuo, do you know that if I still wore the clan emblem, they wouldn't dare to lay a hand on me!"

"Then what's the point of me gaining experience on the battlefield?"

"But if I take off the clan emblem..."

"How can I make the name of the Uchiha clan known?"

There is no other way. For the sake of a few children, Natsuo directly broke into the Kumogakure fortress, killed almost all the Kumo Shinobi, and took away the Eight-Tails and the Raikage.

Those were just a few children who hadn't fallen into the hands of the Kumo Shinobi.

Although it seems that Sasuke and Natsuo have a more distant relationship, no one knows if they are actually much closer.

Who would dare to lay a hand on someone like him? Aren't you afraid of provoking Natsuo?

Sasuke is very troubled.

Of course, he complains on the surface, but anyone can see the proud attitude between the lines.

Plus it's not just Sasuke who's playing this trick of complaining when deep down they're just bragging. Naruto also played along.

Of course, the letter he sent said: "Oh, Natsuo-aniki, I accidentally defeated another Chunin, and the village rewarded me with a whopping fifty thousand Ryo."

"The Iwagakure chunin are really weak, I have defeated several of them and the rewards totaled more than three hundred thousand!"

"With so much money, how long will I be able to play in the Super VIP section when I return?"

"Haha, Natsuo-aniki, when I go back, I'll treat you to a good time and let you experience it too!"

Natsuo replied: "Naruto, you are really amazing, come back soon. I just reloaded 10 million on your Super VIP card, so you can have a good time..."

"Don't worry about this ten million, it's just the income I get from sleeping at home for a day. If it's not enough, ask me for more."

"Speaking of which, the village did not give me the reward for eliminating the Kumogakure fortress and capturing the Raikage and the Eight-Tails. Tsunade, this Hokage, is really stingy. I believe that such a stingy village will go bankrupt sooner or later."

"If one day the village really goes bankrupt, why don't you come with me, Naruto? Let's establish a Shinobi Village together. I think you'll be good as the tenth Kage."

Naruto: "..."

'Natsuo-aniki, I have achieved something on my own and risking my life. I just wanted to show off to you. Can't you just praise me a little and satisfy my desire to show off?'

But Naruto was also helpless. Although he did kill many Chunin and made significant contributions, in reality, he was also very dangerous. Naruto's careless and reckless nature hadn't changed, and he almost got killed by enemies several times.

There was one time when he even fell into a trap set by a Jonin and almost got killed by that Iwa Shinobi. If it wasn't for the Nine Tails suddenly coming to Naruto's rescue, he would have been done for.

After going through so many bloody battles and deducting the daily supplies needed for a shinobi, he only saved a little over three hundred thousand in rewards.

On the other hand, Natsuo reloaded his card and spent ten million. The difference is really...

But after doubting life for a while, Naruto wrote his response: "Natsuo-aniki, I love you! I have decided to live with the Uchiha when I return to the village! I want to stay for a year!"

Ten million, oh, ten million, damn ten million...

Natsuo had no expression on his face. "Are you talking about the Uchiha Club?"

Naruto blushed but still wrote his response. "Doesn't that place also part of the Uchiha clan?"

Natsuo: "..."

Regardless of how arrogant Naruto and Sasuke may be, in reality, their talents are top-notch in the shinobi world. After going to the front against Iwagakure, they grew rapidly.

Under Kakashi's direction, the team completed several missions. Naruto and Sasuke made a name for themselves and achieved considerable achievements, becoming rising stars.

Even Sakura quickly grew, actively learning genjutsu from Kakashi and not forgetting to study medical ninjutsu when they returned to the camp for repairs.

In her words, even someone as skilled as Natsuo thinks I have talent, so how could I, someone with talent, possibly lose to just Naruto?

Although she might have some misconceptions about Naruto's talent. But it has to be said, war really makes people grow.

The three members of the main group have made great progress, the only pitiful one being Kakashi. Because Sasuke and Naruto have become more and more daring and have actively taken on dangerous missions.

This has caused Kakashi to be constantly on edge, encountering Iwagakure's expert shinobi several times and facing constant danger.

As Sasuke's team's reputation grew, Iwagakure also assembled a team to hunt them down; Although they did not dare to kill Sasuke, the Iwa shinobi still planned to beat him and imprison him.

This made Kakashi even more worried, but when Naruto and Sasuke found out, they laughed heartily.

Naruto exclaimed proudly, "My reputation has reached Iwagakure! Even the Iwa shinobi have to specifically target me!"

Sasuke coldly replied, "What does that have to do with you? This is the prestige of my Uchiha clan."

Sakura, who was standing nearby, said, "The Iwa shinobi are so scary, Kakashi-sensei... it's amazing!"

Kakashi: "..."

"Do you guys really not intend to let me, your teacher, have some peace of mind?"

"Taking you guys out once can make me live ten years less!"

He couldn't help it and proposed to Tsunade and Natsuo the idea of bringing the three of them back to the village. He felt that he couldn't protect his team members like this.

Actually, Tsunade is also a little worried about Naruto and Sasuke, so she decided to ban them from accepting dangerous missions for the next period of time.

A few more days passed.

Finally, Kakuzu sent a message telling Natsuo that he had brought the kunoichi. Natsuo immediately went to the agreed meeting place.

"Natsuo, you're here!" Kakuzu greeted warmly, even showing a big smile. "Look, this is the kunoichi I worked so hard to capture... Natsuo, you need this kind of talent in the Uchiha clan!"

The kunoichi that Kakuzu was referring to was a short-haired girl who was staring at Natsuo and Kakuzu with a look full of anger.

He had short black hair and black eyes. She wears a red shirt with a sleeve on her left arm, with a brown Iwagakure tactical vest, fishnet stockings with a red skirt and shorts over them. Her face was full of youthful vitality.

But the most striking feature was her long, beautiful legs wrapped in fishnet stockings.

"This person..." Natsuo's expression changed slightly. "You actually brought her here?"

"I put in a lot of effort!" Kakuzu sighed lightly, showing a sense of hard work and accomplishment.

"You shouldn't have made the effort. She's the Tsuchikage's granddaughter!" Natsuo covered his face with one hand. "In fact, you kidnapped her..."

That's right! The girl brought by Kakuzu was none other than the future Fourth Tsuchikage, Onoki's granddaughter, and the best legs in the Naruto series.

Of course, she hadn't fully grown yet, but in her teenage years, her face still had some youthfulness, and her figure was not prominent. But those legs, which were the most eye-catching, were truly something.

"Natsuo, didn't I tell you that she had a noble lineage?" Kakuzu said naturally.

"Her talent is also high enough. I had to put in some effort to capture her." Kakuzu said seriously. "I feel that she definitely has the potential to reach Kage-level!"

"She indeed has..." Natsuo's mouth twitched slightly.

"But Kakuzu, I remember you said she was old enough to get married... Where is this girl old enough?" Natsuo pointed at the young Kurotsuchi girl.

"He's the right age." Kakuzu paused and then turned his head slightly. "I have done the research, if we go by the customs of the Sengoku era..."

Natsuo: "..."

Now there is even someone alive from the Sengoku era. Kakuzu, you really go all out for the money. But Kakuzu didn't care.

"So Natsuo, do you agree to this transaction?" Kakuzu asked impatiently.

"I do!" Natsuo replied without hesitation. 'Of course, I agree. Although it is a little different from what I imagined, Kurotsuchi matches the information and introduction that Kakuzu gave earlier.'

Since that's the case, Natsuo agrees.

He said directly: "Within three days, the payment will be deposited into your previous account."

""Good! No wonder you are number one in the shinobi world, you are direct." Kakuzu suddenly showed a delighted smile and gave a thumbs up. "I will continue to work hard to find excellent talents for the boss!"

"Just do your best." Natsuo shrugged. "If you can find a true Kage-level expert, I might consider paying you five times the price."

Kurotsuchi is good, but her strength hasn't reached its peak yet, plus she's very young...

True Kage-level strong warriors are even more valuable.

Kakuzu's eyes lit up at the words. He silently swallowed his saliva. 'This transaction was already at an expensive price, but to increase it fivefold... Is this the Uchiha's wealth? Love it, love it!'

Natsuo looked at the angry Kurotsuchi and lifted him up. "By the way, Kakuzu, you have captured Onoki's granddaughter, won't he come after me angry?"

Kakuzu chuckled. "But Natsuo, didn't you say that you didn't care about any problems I brought? So I didn't worry too much about that."

A woman of noble status will definitely bring some trouble.

Natsuo was mentally prepared for some trouble from the beginning of his transaction with Kakuzu, but now this...

Natsuo raised an eyebrow. "What do you mean 'don't worry about it'?"

Kakuzu replied: "I mean, Onoki is right behind me."

Natsuo: "...?"

The next second. A small figure fell from the sky.

Onoki was furious. "So it was you who took away my granddaughter?!"
