Chapter 218 Deal with Raikage

Chapter 218 Deal with Raikage
After the battle, the Anbu and elite ninjas from all around gathered together. Looking at the broken leg of the Raikage, each of them felt very humiliated.

This is the base camp of their Hidden Cloud Village. Facing the siege of so many people, Lord Raikage even had one leg broken. If this gets out, how will the face of the Hidden Cloud Village be preserved?

The ninjas who have not experienced the Third World War have only now understood how valuable the titled war heroes of that era were. Tianzai Luli is definitely a Kage-level warrior!
After fully understanding Lu Li's strength, the ninjas present who were unaware of the inside story had a question in their hearts: why would Lu Li, a war hero who was so powerful and had made great achievements in the Three Wars, defect from Konoha?

Even if it was a golden flash, it wouldn't necessarily be stronger than a natural disaster, right? But in the end, one person became the Hokage, while the other became a defected ninja that everyone hated. This treatment was really different.

"Samui, go to the black market and post a bounty for Lu Li. The price is 60 million."

The Raikage stood up with the help of Killer Bee and spoke.

"Sixty million!?"

Samui's icy face broke again, and she said in surprise that this was a rare bounty amount in the ninja world, usually only for Kage-level masters from big countries would have such a bounty.

This amount of money is not a small sum, and the finances of the Hidden Cloud Village have been mediocre in recent years. Do we really want to use this money to offer a bounty on the black market?
“Not many people can take this order.”

The Raikage said calmly that he was not just a reckless man, he had brains to become the Raikage.

Offering a bounty is just an attitude, and as for the black market bounty, outsiders will not know who offered the bounty for Lu Li, so those who are interested can just guess.

In fact, he didn't expect that civilian bounty ninjas could get Lu Li's head. That was too unrealistic.

"I see……"

Samui understood what Lord Raikage meant. He wanted to cause trouble for Lu Li. At the same time, it was also a statement from the Hidden Cloud Village that they took Lu Li's disturbance in the Hidden Cloud Village very seriously and were in a state of complete opposition.

"Darui, arrange for someone to contact Lu Li secretly and tell him that I accept his offer."

The next order from the Raikage shocked everyone present.

"Lord Raikage, do we still have to cooperate with the natural disaster!?"

Even someone as calm as Samui became anxious and stepped forward to persuade him, "He is too dangerous. How can we agree to his conditions? Lightning Chakra Mode is a secret technique that only the successive Raikages can master!"

The Raikage looked grim, pointing to his broken leg, "He's worth the price now."

This is the official transaction. Lu Li has demonstrated his strength and value. He does have the ability to infiltrate the Akatsuki organization.

As a military power, the Hidden Cloud Village has also made many small moves under the surface over the years, and the Akatsuki organization has become increasingly active as an international mercenary organization.

The old guy Ohnoki has caused him a lot of trouble with the Akatsuki organization, but compared to the hatred towards Ohnoki, he is currently more concerned about the threat from the Akatsuki organization.

He had to drive a strong nail into such a dangerous organization to feel at ease, and he couldn't be sure that he would never be able to use the Akatsuki mercenary group.

Of course, he would not give Lu Li what he wanted directly. Lu Li must be able to provide information of corresponding value before he would give him the secret technique.

In this process, the Hidden Cloud Village actually does not have to bear any risks. Whether Lu Li performs well or badly in the Akatsuki organization has little to do with them. After all, on the surface, Lu Li was first a traitor to Konoha, and then a mortal enemy who had caused chaos in the Hidden Cloud Village.

After Samui figured out the key, her eyes changed when she looked at the Raikage. She didn't expect that the seemingly reckless Raikage could be so wise. It turned out that a simple-minded person could not become a Kage.

Only those who have been with Ai know it best. Ai is certainly not an old villain, but after so many years of fighting with Ohnoki of the Iwagakure Village, he must have developed some brains, otherwise he would have been schemed against to the point of being left with nothing.

The Third Raikage was tricked, and in order to force the army of the Hidden Cloud Village to retreat, he single-handedly stopped all the ninjas of the Hidden Iwagakure, and died of exhaustion after three days of fierce fighting. They have not forgotten this deep-rooted hatred.

Now they no longer regard Lu Li as one of their own. Regardless of the fact that Lu Li killed many ninjas from the Hidden Cloud Village during the war, or the fact that he caused a big disturbance in the Hidden Cloud Village in today's battle, they must absolutely exclude Lu Li.

But that was not the case now. Lu Li still had value to them, so they could reach a deal temporarily.

Once the threat from Akatsuki disappears, they will naturally consider how to deal with Lu Li.

…………

After leaving the Hidden Cloud Village, Lu Li traveled through the dense forests of the Naruto world.

His initial stay in this world is the same as that of One Piece, which is three months. Breaking out of the Hidden Cloud Village is just the beginning. If he wants to gain more benefits in this world, he must find a suitable entry point.

First, he needed to find a place to stay and collect specific information about this era.

It is difficult to understand the details of a world just by reading comics, especially now that this world is a place that explorers have visited, so the plot may have changed.

The next day, Lu Li arrived at the border of the Land of Thunder and rested in a teahouse at the foot of the mountain.

"Hey, have you heard? The natural disaster in the Third Ninja World War is still alive. He was captured and hidden by the Hidden Cloud Village, but somehow he escaped and caused chaos in the Hidden Cloud Village, and even broke the Raikage's leg!"

"Is this true? A natural disaster? Isn't that Konoha's war hero?"

"I heard he was dead a long time ago? But he's still alive? Did the Raikage catch him?"

"I heard that he was captured eight years ago and secretly imprisoned. Konoha had already determined that Natural Disaster was dead, but now he has escaped again. Hey, this is going to be a lively scene."

"What's the excitement? He has been imprisoned by our Kumogakure of the Land of Lightning for so many years. He must hate us to death. I heard that he is an executioner who kills anyone he sees. Don't run into him."

"Hiss, it's true that when you said that, I suddenly felt a chill down my spine."

"What does Tianzai look like?" "I heard that he looks quite handsome. I've seen the wanted poster and he seems to be dressed similarly to the man sitting in the corner."

"Wait...could it be...that's him?"

"..."

Lu Li sat there and felt the discussion around him gradually become quieter, and finally everyone in the teahouse ran away.

He didn't care. Unlike the world of One Piece, being wanted in Naruto was not a good thing. There were real people who would collect the bounty on the wanted order.

In a sense, the bounty offered by the Raikage was a help to him. It would help spread his reputation and attract the bounty hunters he was waiting for.

Swah——

Just as Lu Li finished his tea, dropped a golden bean and left the teahouse, and walked to the forest path, a figure walked out from behind the trees. It was a member of the Yunyin Anbu.

Lu Li did not attack the Anbu because he felt that Yunyin was not a fool. Even the Raikage could not handle him, so it was impossible for him to send an Anbu to hunt him down.

"Natural Scourge, please do not attack. I am here to pass on a message for Lord Raikage."

The Anbu's face was covered in sweat under the mask and he was extremely nervous because he knew that it would only take a moment for Lu Li to kill him.

The Raikage had people use secret techniques to track Lu Li's whereabouts and send messages, but he also sent out the Anbu in order to cast a wide net and contact Lu Li before he left the Kingdom of Thunder.

"Raikage? Is your leg okay?"

Lu Li asked with a smile.

"Lord Raikage is fine. This is his letter."

The Anbu stepped forward and handed Lu Li the letter that was handwritten by his subordinate.

Lu Li took it and glanced at it, the smile on his face widened. Sure enough, his guess was right. This is how to play in an open world.

The content of the letter was very simple. The Raikage said that he accepted Lu Li's request and could give Lu Li the secret technique of Lightning Chakra Mode. He could even help him obtain other secret techniques in the village.

The prerequisite is that Lu Li can join the Akatsuki organization and become an insider of the Hidden Cloud Village, provide the Hidden Cloud Village with intelligence about the Akatsuki organization at any time, and try to influence the military actions of the Akatsuki organization when necessary to create benefits for the Hidden Cloud Village.

As long as Lu Li can achieve "results" and provide effective information, Yunyin will give Lu Li a secret technique. According to the importance of the information Lu Li provides, he may even give him the Lightning Chakra Mode.

After reading the letter, Lu Li received a prompt from the End Space, indicating that he had triggered a hidden task.

[Hidden Mission: Cloud Undercover]

Mission content: Join the Akatsuki organization as an undercover agent on behalf of the Hidden Cloud Village and help the Hidden Cloud Village to obtain intelligence on the Akatsuki organization.

Mission difficulty: Easy ~ Must die
Mission rewards: Depending on the benefits you gain for the Hidden Cloud Village, you can obtain different rewards for the Hidden Cloud Mystic Arts. The rewards obtained through missions can be taken out of this world without certification.

Failure penalty: None
[Hint: This task can be completed repeatedly before severing ties with the Hidden Cloud Village]

Lu Li's fingertips flashed with lightning, and he ignited the letter and destroyed its contents. "This time, I do think I'm serious about the deal, but my sincerity is still not enough. Go back and tell him that I want a deposit."

The Anbu heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Lu Li agreed for the time being. He took out a talisman-like object from his ninja tool bag. It had a black lightning pattern on it. "Use this talisman to get in touch with the Raikage. Please keep it safe."

After receiving the call, Lu Li took a look and found that it was actually a legendary communication item. It can only be said that the technological development in this world is really strange. There is not even a telephone now, and it is necessary to use secret techniques to make this kind of sound transmission note with many limitations.

The principle of this talisman is probably to use electricity to release electromagnetic waves to resonate with another talisman. It is an advanced communication method that only Kumogakure can use, and most other ninja villages probably cannot do it.

Compared with the current communication technology in the Naruto world, the communication talisman in his hand is considered a high-end product. After all, Konoha is still using things like carrier pigeons.

If he went undercover in the Akatsuki organization, but used carrier pigeons or something like that to send messages, he would definitely be discovered by Black and White Zetsu and would be killed without a burial place.

After the Anbu left, Lu Li also walked towards the border of the Land of Thunder and soon crossed the border. From then on, his adventure officially began.

He was willing to take on the task of Raikage not only for the benefits of the secret technique. The Lightning Release Chakra mode was very good, but he didn't really need it. He could also research something similar by slowly developing the Thunder God Fruit himself.

He took on the mission just to earn some extra income, because he was originally planning to join the Akatsuki organization.

Even if the Raikage didn't ask him, he would go. After all, the Akatsuki organization has a lot of good things. He can't think about the Rinnegan for the time being, but if he can find a way to get some Hashirama cells or something, there should still be a chance.

Lu Li believed that the immortal bodies in this world could be considered a kind of bloodline, as could the Samsara Eye and the Sharingan. He currently had one available bloodline slot, and if there was a chance, he would consider getting some good bloodlines in this world to use first.

When fighting with the Raikage before, Lu Li realized that his dynamic reflexes, which he had always been confident in, would not be able to keep up with the speed of his opponent one day, so he felt it was necessary to improve his eyesight.

He was not interested in fancy eye techniques, but it was undeniable that advanced eyes could give him more outstanding insight, which would definitely be of great help in battle.

In addition, there is another benefit to joining Akatsuki. After a day of intelligence gathering, Lu Li discovered that Akatsuki was much more active than in the original novel.

This means that they are likely to collect the tailed beasts in advance. His Soul Eater Ring needs to absorb various different energies to upgrade quickly. Feeding it with lightning alone is too slow.

Although the nine tailed beasts are of the same origin, the properties of their energies seem to be very different. Lu Li feels that if he lets his Soul Eater absorb a little from each tailed beast, perhaps he can grow this ring to the Dark Gold level in this world!
