Mei Terumi still used the wind to blow away the pollen, but this was only temporary. The pollen seemed to have consciousness and was slowly gathering towards her.
"I found you!" Sasuke used the Fire Style: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique.
Sasuke drew out the Kusanagi sword in his hand and approached Mei, and the two began a physical duel.
After a long time...
"No movement. It seems that Lord Sasuke has succeeded. We should retreat and tear down the barrier," said one of the subordinates.
"Brother Buka, don't we show our face in front of Lord Sasuke?" asked another.
"Meow!"
The leading man slapped the younger brother in the face and said unhappily, "Am I the boss or are you the boss? Stop asking annoying questions."
"Sasuke is in—"
"Shh!" The big man covered the younger brother's mouth. "Don't talk nonsense. Be careful of the fire."
The four of them left in a friendly manner and headed for Kirigakure to fight.
As someone who could work under Sasuke, Buka knew what he should and should not do. Especially for a ninja as powerful as Sasuke, who was ruthless and domineering, Buka was unwilling to offend him.
The fire was burning fiercely, and Sasuke opened his eyes quietly. Kabuto and his group had been standing in front of him for a long time.
"Sasuke-kun, everything went well," Kabuto said with a smile, straightening his glasses.
"Thank you for your hard work."
"It is our honor to serve Sasuke-kun."
Sasuke was very satisfied with Kabuto's ability to get things done. He had both strategy and talent. Talent and bloodline are the dividing line that hinders ordinary people's achievements, but for Kabuto, they are not a problem.
"Sasuke-kun, what are we going to do next?" Kimimaro asked.
It was only a matter of time before Kirigakure fell into Sasuke's hands. He had originally planned to hunt down the Six-Tails Jinchuriki, Utakata, but Mei said Utakata had already left Kirigakure and his whereabouts were unknown.
"Kimimaro, immediately go to the black market and offer a bounty of 1 billion for my life," Sasuke ordered.
Kimimaro knew that Sasuke was rich, but how could he offer a bounty for himself? This puzzled him.
"Sasuke-kun, are you planning to go fishing?" Kabuto asked tentatively.
"Yes. Akatsuki has a ninja who values money above all else. I don't believe he won't be tempted by so much money."
Sasuke just wanted to take the opportunity to lure Kakuzu over and capture him. He was very interested in this genius who fired a shuriken at the God of Ninja from three thousand miles away.
Using a very dangerous technique, Kakuzu could take the heart of a ninja at will and use the power of the heart's previous owner, allowing him to use five-element chakra ninjutsu without any obstacles. As the wallet of Akatsuki, Kakuzu's ability to make money was first-class. After all, after leaving Takigakure, his only interest and hobby was money.
So Kakuzu walked in the black market all year round, killing ninjas on the bounty list again and again. The tasks he usually took were worth tens of millions at most. It's not that he didn't want to take higher ones—this was already the highest. If someone suddenly offered a bounty of 1 billion, Kakuzu would probably not even sleep well.
"I'll do it as soon as possible," Kimimaro said.
Kimimaro left as ordered, and Sasuke chatted with Kabuto about some things to pay attention to in Sage Mode.
There had been a frenzy in the black market recently, and the desperate criminals were all talking about a name: Uchiha Sasuke.
The new number one on the recent bounty list was far ahead of the second place. A billion bounty—if you could take Uchiha Sasuke's life, you could live happily forever.
"Hahahaha, great, a boy around sixteen years old is worth so much money."
"I didn't expect that Konoha's rebel, Uchiha Sasuke, is so valuable."
