129: Chapter 129 The BlameTwo days later, Itachi Uchiha, carrying a half-dead Killer Bee on his back, finally made it back to the merchant guild.
"The person has been brought back, and they are still alive."
Itachi carefully placed Killer Bee on the stretcher that had been prepared in advance.
As soon as the person was taken to the medical department, Lei Ying rushed back in a great hurry.
He was soaking wet, his clothes covered in mud and pebbles, looking quite disheveled.
His eyes were bloodshot as he stared worriedly at Killer Bee on the stretcher.
"By!How is my brother?Tsunade!You have to see him!"
Tsunade had just washed her hands and was drying them with a towel when she glanced at the Raikage, who was practically smoking.
"You're not going to die, so don't scream and yell in the hospital."
She walked to the bedside, pried open Kirabi's eyelids to take another look, and pinched his arm.
"Thanks to the Eight-Tails, the Akatsuki forcibly separated some of his original chakra before extracting it, keeping him alive."
"Right now, he's just exhausted, plus the aftereffects of having his tailed beast forcibly extracted.He'll wake up after a few days of rest, but his strength will definitely not be what it used to be."
She tossed the towel in her hand aside.
Upon hearing that his life had been saved, Lei Ying finally relaxed a bit after being tense for so long.His tiger-like eyes reddened, and he patted his chest heavily.
"Thank you, Tsunade!I, the Hidden Cloud Village, will remember this favor you and the Merchant Guild do for me for the rest of my life!"
He walked to the bedside and looked at his brother, who was always so lively but was now lying motionless, and his nose felt a little sore.
"It's alright now, brother.I'm sorry you suffered."
The atmosphere in Konoha was completely different.
Mitokado Yan's funeral was a very grand affair.
Almost all the able-bodied ninjas in the village came, a huge crowd, no one spoke, only suppressed sobs and the rustling of rain hitting the leaves.
Xiaochun, who was in the dormitory, stood at the front and looked at her old friend's coffin, tears streaming down her face.
For decades, we've worked together under the second generation leader since we were young, and later became advisors and elders.Through thick and thin, we've supported each other, argued and laughed together.
People die so easily these days, sometimes even in their own homes, and so tragically.
She nearly fainted several times and had to be supported by the younger generation around her.
"Elder Xiaochun, please accept my condolences."
Xiaochun, who was switching dorm rooms, just shook her head, tears streaming down her face.
This scene made many young ninjas below turn red in the eyes, and their anger flared up.
In the Hokage's office, Jiraiya looked at the newly drafted bounty poster on the table and finally gritted his teeth.
"Damn it!This is outrageous!They failed to gouge out Kakashi's eyes, and now they're attacking my elder!Do they think Konoha is a public toilet, where you can come and go as you please?"
Bounty target: Man with glowing mask (Characteristics: skilled in space-time ninjutsu, his body emits a blue glow at night).
A generous reward will be given for providing useful clues!
"Can we capture or kill this bastard alive."
Jiraiya took a deep breath and announced an astronomical figure that made Yamanaka Inoichi, who was recording the figures, tremble three times.
This bounty amount is so large that even if you sold all the surrounding small countries together, it might not be enough.
This is unprecedented in the history of the ninja world, a truly unique event.
In just a few days, the bounty notices flew like snowflakes to every nook and cranny of the ninja world through various channels.
Villages large and small, black markets, gold exchange shops, and even taverns frequented by wandering ninjas are all buzzing about this "glowing man" and his outrageous bounty for opening the door.
In the shadowy stronghold of the Land of Rain.
Kakuzu held the freshly issued bounty poster in his hand, his old green eyes staring at the long string of zeros on it, which almost turned into the shape of a dollar sign.
He moistened his fingers with saliva and counted the zeros one by one, his heart beating faster with each count.
After counting, he silently put away the bounty poster, and then, very slowly, turned his head and cast his gaze at Afei in the corner, who was playing a role by poking ants with a stick.
His eyes were burning with desire, like a wolf that hadn't eaten for three days and three nights seeing a piece of walking, steaming fat meat.
Organization?Ideal?Eye of the Moon?
That's all fake!
Only the money you put in your own pocket is real!
This Ah Fei.he usually looks kind of silly, I never expected him to be so valuable.
He licked his slightly chapped lips and began to seriously consider whether to attack directly or try to lure him out of the organization first.
Or, to be on the safe side, cooperate with someone else, like that idiot Hidan?
Hidan may not be the brightest, but he's a decent fighter.Sharing some with him.doesn't seem like a bad idea.
Ah Fei was enthusiastically poking at the ants when he suddenly felt a chill down his back.
He turned his head in confusion, only to meet the undisguised, money-driven gaze of the man in the upper corner.
hooligan:"?"
He instinctively shrank back.
This old miser.his eyes are terrifying!It feels like he's thinking of tearing me apart and selling me for money?
Inside the Kamui dimension, Obito had obviously also learned about his latest bounty.
"Fuck your mother!"
He ripped off the vortex mask from his face and slammed it to the ground.Still not satisfied, he stomped on it twice.
"Who?Who the hell did this?"
"Are you so bored that you went to Konoha to kill some old codger who's about to die?Huh?"
He felt like he had been incredibly unlucky lately.
What's the plan?
What about the Eye of the Moon plan that Lao Tzu painstakingly planned for decades?
It feels like it's completely gone off track!
Did some bastard kick the gears of fate?
Why aren't we following the script?
He had planned it all out perfectly: once he had collected enough tailed beasts, he would make a dazzling appearance as Madara Uchiha, launch the Fourth Shinobi World War, and drag the whole world into his dream of Infinite Tsukuyomi.
And what was the result?
We still need several more tailed beasts.
That idiot Pain insisted on flexing his muscles, ruining the Hidden Cloud Village and now the five great nations are united against him.
WoodThe situation on Ye's side was even more outrageous.Some damned fool had nothing better to do than go and kill their elder!
This big, round black pot was slammed right onto his head with a loud bang!
He's like mud dripping down his pants now; even if he's not shit, he's still shit.
The outrageous bounty offered by Konoha has made him see everyone as someone who wants to exchange him for money.
That old bastard Kakuzu's gaze is getting increasingly strange; he's about to make a move!
Obito slumped to the ground, looking at the tattoo on his body that glowed in the dark at night and couldn't be removed no matter what he did.He scratched his head vigorously, his face scrunched up.
At this moment, the atmosphere of desperation in Konoha Village had reached its peak.
A large number of Jonin and elite Chunin who were not usually well-known but had solid strength were quickly assembled.
The equipment was distributed, and boxes of explosive tags were carried away, with ninja tool pouches stuffed to the brim.
The air was thick with a suffocating, tense atmosphere, as if about to erupt.
Jiraiya stood on high ground, looking down at the assembled troops below, his expression solemn.
He didn't care what conspiracy the man with the glowing mask was behind, nor did he care whether the Land of Rain was a den of dragons and tigers.
What a load of bull for negotiations and investigations!Screw them all!
Let's plow through that filthy place first!
He's determined to take over Amegakure!
The shadow of war, along with the outrageous bounty and Konoha's determination to mobilize all its forces, pressed down on the entire ninja world.
