91 Journey

Land of Fire

Black Market.

"How's this possible."

The boss of the black market looked at the scene in front of his eyes, full of fear.

In front, there was a sea of bodies lying motionless on the ground and in the middle of it stood a person with red hair and a mask covering his face.

He, with his own eyes, saw that the person in front just glanced at all the people around, and they all suddenly fell down like puppets cut from its strings.

You should know that every bounty hunter here at least has a Jonin level strength, but all of them were knocked out with a single glance.

"Hey, I'm in a hurry, bring the bounty?"

A voice interrupted his thoughts as he saw the terrifying monster didn't know when it suddenly appeared in front of him.

"I'll notify the publisher; please wait."

The boss immediately ran away to notify the publisher as he didn't want to stay around this monster anymore.

After a few minutes, the boss returned with quite a few scrolls.

"Here it is complete 100 Million Ryo you can count it, honorable sir."

The bald man was like a newly admitted employee speaking politely to Kozuki like he was his boss.

Kozuki brought his right hand forward as he took the scrolls from him, putting them away.

A surprised expression appeared on the boss's face when he noticed the left arm of Kozuki missing.

But he didn't say anything as he respectfully sent Kozuki away.

But when Kozuki was about to leave, he stopped and looked in a specific direction. Still, after taking a look, he once again started walking towards the exit and left soon.

Just a minute after Kozuki left, a person with a dark robe printed with red clouds and a scary face with green eyes stood up from the direction that Kozuki had looked towards.

"Phew"...

"Finally, that Monster is gone."

Kakuzu had fear in his eyes as before he never felt that death so near.

Actually, he was here from the start, and when he saw the 3 billion bounty head appearing, he wasn't as reckless as others.

He knew that someone with such a high bounty was definitely someone he couldn't handle.

He wanted to wait for him to get tired after fighting everyone around. Still, he was stunned the next moment after seeing all of them suddenly falling down.

At that moment, he felt a terrifying aura enveloping the whole area around.

After squeezing out all of his strength and biting his tongue forcefully, he was able to keep himself conscious.

This terrifying aura, even the First Hokage, was far from it.

And when Kozuki looked towards him at the end, he was sweating all over, but fortunately, luck was on his side as he survived.

Kakuzu decided that after today he would send a clone to redeem the bounty. Who knows, one day that monster gets angry and kills him to just vent his anger.

There were a lot of Ninja from every nation stationed around the black market, so they also saw the scene here and reported it back to the village.

"Bang"

"How dare that bastard appear so blatantly in our land."

Tsunade immediately destroyed the wall with her punch after she learned what happened at the black market.

It is worth mentioning that during this time, Tsunade has gotten rid of her blood phobia.

When she saw the determination in her students' eyes and remembered her Sensei and Kozuki in a pool of blood, she couldn't keep herself weak anymore.

She recklessly made a wound on her hand for her precious students, and with her determination, she was able to cure herself.

She decided to stay in the village, take charge of the medical department, and teach her students.

"How could we forget this? Since he took Elder Danzo's head, it was natural he wanted to get his bounty."

Sakumo standing beside pointed out their blunder.

"But we also got precious information from the in-charge of the black market about Akagami Shanks."

Minato knew that there was no point in regretting something that had already happened and had to move forward.

"According to what that in-charge said, he wears a mask and could stun a lot of people with just a glance and has a huge green hilt sword, but this wasn't the most important information."

"According to him, he only had one arm."

Minato quickly explained the whole information that he had received from the bald man to Sakumo and Tsunade as well as the two Elders sitting beside him.

"Someone with one hand can defeat all three of them."

Sakumo couldn't help but ask back after he heard what Minato told.

"It's most likely that he got injured during the fight; there was no way he could have gotten away without a wound fighting them."

"Especially Kozuki, whose strength was off the charts, it is most likely Kozuki who cut of his arm."

Minato quickly told his guess to everyone as they all nodded as this was the most likely situation.

After the meeting, Minato notified every Ninja of the looks of Akagami Shanks as the whole world started to look for him.

But Kozuki, at this time, had started a long journey to look for the person mentioned by the Tail Beasts.
