After instructing Itachi, Ginny took out her phone and dialed Moses's number.
"The attackers on Jane have been dealt with. The members of that organization won't attack you anymore. You can inform Jane to continue her scientific research."
"Yes, Secretary Ginny!"
"I've prepared three bloodline vials for your team to strengthen yourselves."
"As for you, there's a mixture of vampire bloodline and werewolf bloodline serum."
"Take the rewards and complete the mission well. Even if something unexpected happens, the four of you should be able to handle it."
"Thank you for your rewards, Secretary Ginny."
After hanging up, Ginny headed to Orochimaru's laboratory to check on the progress of the strength enhancement serum.
…
On the other side-
After leaving Charles's base, Coulson immediately returned to S.H.I.E.L.D.
"Director, Charles is not at the base. I didn't see him in person."
"He might have returned to Konohagakure. But I've communicated with his secretary, Ginny."
"The Charles Agency and the forces behind it won't interfere with the capture of the rogue ninja Hidan. We've paid an additional 200 energy blocks for this."
"I've also informed them about Jane's situation, and her safety is entrusted to Charles."
After hearing Coulson's report, Nick Fury nodded. He wasn't too concerned about the extra expenditure of 200 energy blocks. As long as they uncover the secrets of chakra, Charles could take as many energy blocks as he wanted.
"Initiate the operation. Capture the rogue ninja Hidan as soon as possible."
The entire S.H.I.E.L.D. organization started mobilizing, with numerous agents and field operatives being deployed.
…
In Africa-
After completing a sacrifice, Hidan was heading towards his next target when white smoke appeared around him.
"Reverse Summoning Jutsu?"
"Boom!"
Hidan's figure disappeared from the road and appeared in the summoning realm.
Itachi used the Reverse Summoning Jutsu to bring Hidan to this realm.
After arriving in the summoning realm, Hidan looked at Itachi and said, "Itachi, did Lord Charles have any instructions?"
Itachi replied, "It's not Lord Charles who asked for you; I asked the ninja dogs to bring you here."
Hidan looked at the man before him and chuckled, "Itachi, I didn't expect Lord Charles to bring you here as well."
Itachi, observing Hidan, expressed surprise, "Do you know me?"
"What kind of joke are you making? We're both members of the Akatsuki organization."
Upon hearing Hidan's response, Uchiha Itachi pondered briefly. It seemed he had ended up joining the organization called Akatsuki.
Not dwelling too much on this matter, Itachi spoke, "We've received information. The organization you attacked recently is called S.H.I.E.L.D."
"They will be coming after you for capture, deploying a large number of personnel and using heavy weapons. You should prepare in advance."
Hidan, lifting his Triple-Bladed Scythe, laughed heartily, "Hahaha, relying on those weaklings to capture me? They probably don't even know how they'll die."
Itachi, seeing Hidan's attitude, didn't emphasize much and said, "They also have powerful heavy weapons. Since you know about this, just don't mess things up."
"Although I don't know what Lord Charles assigned you to do outside, just avoid any accidents."
Upon hearing Itachi mention Lord Charles, Hidan took out a small pouch from his pocket, containing the blood core he obtained after sacrificing vampires, and tossed it to Itachi.
"This is a peculiar item I found here. Do you recognize it?"
Itachi opened the pouch, poured some of its contents into his hand, observed it, and then placed it back into the pouch.
"This is a blood core, an energy crystallization from a vampire's body. This thing is useful for Lord Charles. Previously, Kakashi's team collected these from a group of vampires."
"It seems even Copy Ninja Kakashi has come over here."
"Since this thing is useful for Lord Charles, take it back and give it to him."
Uchiha Itachi didn't hesitate and directly tucked it away.
After a brief exchange, they didn't linger in the summoning world and returned to their respective locations.
After returning from the summoning realm, Deidara glanced at the scorching sun above and chuckled, "They want to capture me, hehe..."
"But Itachi's state seems a bit strange, as if he's surprised by me knowing him."
"I wonder when my old partner, Tobi, will arrive. It feels a bit dull without him around."
…
In the blink of an eye, another three days passed.
At this point, Pierce had gathered all the metals for the exchange of the body enhancement serum. 24,000 grams of Secondary Adamantium Alloy, 2,400 grams of Vibranium, and 240 grams of Adamantium Alloy.
The total value reached $312 million, exceeding the amount needed for the enhancement serum by $12 million.
Pierce acquired information about the werewolves, including Moses. Dr. Zola then utilized his internet skills to trace the werewolves' activities, finding their earliest appearance in London, England.
Even though their identities were still unknown, some surveillance footage showed traces of their presence.
Pierce planned to use this $12 million worth of metals to ask the Sunagakure Puppet shop to bring back a werewolf for research.
Under the escort of an awakened Winter Soldier, a Hydra team member arrived at the Sunagakure Puppet Shop.
Upon entering the shop, they went straight to Temari.
"Ms. Temari, I am the one in charge of the trade with you. We brought the metals you need to exchange for the body enhancement serum."
With a gesture from the team member, the two others placed their briefcases on the table and opened them.
"24,000 grams of Secondary Adamantium Alloy, 2,400 grams of Vibranium, 240 grams of Adamantium Alloy."
"The total value is $312 million. Besides exchanging it for a body enhancement serum, there is also a new mission commission."
Looking at the metals brought by the other party, Temari directly took out a vial of the body enhancement serum from a storage scroll and waved it in her hand.
"This is the bloodline enhancement serum you need."
