Chapter 231 Do you want to be a Mizukage?

"Why don't you kill me?"

Zabuza looked at Lu Li's back, his tone full of doubt.

In his ninja worldview, the winner is the king and the loser is the villain. People without strength have no value in living. He had been completely defeated in the invisible confrontation just now, but Lu Li spared his life.

"You want to die?"

Lu Li turned his head and said, "I can fulfill your wish."

As he said this, he stood up and pulled out the Demon Prisoner.

He was not surprised that Zabuza appeared in Cardo. After all, this world had been disturbed by the first wave of explorers, and the plot had changed slightly.

Logically speaking, if Itachi had not yet joined the Akatsuki organization, there would have been no incident in which Itachi and Juuzou Biwa were killed by the Mizukage while on a mission together, and Zabuza should not have received the beheading sword.

But Lu Li had noticed before that the sword carried by Biwa Juzang on his back was not a beheading sword, so he must have lost it when he defected. Zabuza probably became one of the Seven Mist Swordsmen in advance because of this and launched a coup and defected in advance.

"That's not what I meant. I'm just curious. The legendary natural disaster is different from what I imagined."

Zabuza shook his head and said, of course he didn't want to die, he still had things to do.

A year ago, he launched a coup in the Hidden Mist Village to assassinate the Fourth Mizukage, but failed. However, he has not given up his ideals in life.

So he endured humiliation, worked here in Cardo, and accumulated funds, just to be able to fight back one day.

"Oh? Then what kind of person do you think I am?"

Lu Li opened the safe and said that Cardo was unexpectedly poor. As a super business tycoon who monopolized the shipping industry, his assets were not as much as he imagined.

It can only be said that as a company, Cardo does not retain too much liquid funds, and most of it is used to expand the business. Lu Li can rob Cardo's cash, but he cannot rob his property.

Fortunately, the banking industry was not well developed in that era, and Cardo's main liquid assets were kept in his own manor, which he believed was the safest. After a search, Lu Li found assets worth billions.

He believed that this money would be enough for Orochimaru to spend for a long time, and next time he saw Kakuzu, he would have a good talk with him again.

"A cold-blooded, ruthless, and efficient killing machine. This is how the Kirigakure textbook describes you."

Zabuza said.

Lu Li was a little surprised. He didn't expect that he would be included in the textbook of the Hidden Mist Village. He remembered that he had never fought against the Hidden Mist Village in the three wars with this identity.

The battlefield on the Kirigakure side was mainly occupied by the Uchiha clan, and he had never been there once.

"I don't deny your evaluation of me on the battlefield, but now I'm working alone."

As Lu Li spoke, he put a bunch of things into his storage space as if nothing had happened. After all, there were many storage ninjutsu in the ninja world, so it wouldn't make others feel weird.

There were two reasons why he didn't kill Zabuza. First, he was not interested in killing a weakling who had lost his will to fight. Second, he suddenly remembered that Zabuza might be a useful chess piece.

At present, he has not obtained much world exploration in this world. He only gained some exploration after causing trouble in Kumogakure. He speculated that it was because the Uchiha clan's mission had not been advanced yet and he was still keeping a low profile for the time being.

After the last One Piece world, Lu Li had been wondering, what would happen if the world exploration reached 100%?
At that time in the world of One Piece, his strength was not ranked among the best in the entire world, but in this era of Naruto, he is definitely considered a strong man who can stir up the world.

Naturally, Lu Li would have more ideas of causing trouble and wanted to challenge the 100% exploration level.

Since he wants to play, he's going to play big. Not only does he want to destabilize the structure of Kumogakure, Konoha, and Sand Village, he's not going to let go of the border village of Mist.

Zabuza is a revolutionary. Wouldn't it be great if he killed the current Fourth Mizukage and let Zabuza take over as his thorn in the Hidden Mist Village?
"Want me to follow you? What can you give me?"

Zabuza watched Lu Li collect Cardo's huge assets and felt a little jealous, but he did not regret not taking action to rob Cardo himself in the past few years.

It is true that he is a traitor ninja now, but he believes that he will be able to return to Kirigakure and successfully launch a revolution one day, so he still adheres to the ninja's loyalty to his employer.

If he, the future ruler of Kirigakure, behaves so badly towards his employer, then after he succeeds, who will hire Kirigakure ninjas to do missions?

"To be honest, I have never heard of your name before. You should have been a young boy before the Third World War, right?"

Lu Li smiled at Zabuza and said, "I just think that you are quite strong now, and you may be useful to me. Why don't you tell me what you want?"

Zabuza was silent for a moment, then said, "I want to become the Mizukage and reform the cruel system of Kirigakure."

This answer surprised Lu Li a little. He only knew that Zabuza staged a coup because he wanted to become the Mizukage, but he didn't know that this cruel man who killed all his peers actually wanted to reform the Blood Mist.

"Want to be the Mizukage? You're asking for too much. You're too weak."

Lu Li shook his head and said.

Zabuza felt extremely humiliated. He was the silent killing genius of the Hidden Mist Village. Since his debut, he had never been criticized as "too weak".

But in the face of the natural disaster, he really had no power to refute. After all, the other party had just intimidated him with murderous intent and momentum, and he didn't even dare to draw his knife.

"But if you are willing to do something for me, I can help you."

Lu Li's change of tone made Zabuza stunned.

Zabuza thought he had just misheard, "I said I want to be the Mizukage, Calamity, are you sure you heard my request clearly?"

He just felt that Lu Li seemed to be too confident. His current identity was a traitor. If he wanted to return to Kirigakure to become the Mizukage, the difficulty would be no less than that of returning to Konoha to become the Hokage. However, the other party said that as long as he worked for him, he would help him realize his wish.

What kind of person is the Fourth Mizukage? After fighting, he clearly realized that he was definitely not an ordinary ninja. As a perfect Jinchūriki, there are only a handful of people in the ninja world who can fight against the Fourth Mizukage.

Zabuza had indeed heard about Lu Li's rampage in the Hidden Cloud Village, but he didn't think Lu Li would be a match for the Fourth Mizukage.

"I don't like to repeat myself. If you want to be the Mizukage, follow me."

After Lu Li sorted out his harvest, he jumped out of the window and prepared to leave Cardo's manor. He believed that Zabuza would follow him because he had received a new hidden mission. [Hidden Mission: Zabuza's Ambition]

Mission content: Kill the Fourth Mizukage Yagura and help Momochi Zabuza become the Fifth Mizukage.

Mission Difficulty: Difficult ~ Nightmare
Mission reward: Kirigakure Ninjutsu Complete Scroll *1
Failure penalty: None
Lu Li took a look and found that the Kirigakure Ninjutsu Collection Scroll was a dark gold-level item, which recorded all of Kirigakure's ninjutsu, secret techniques, and forbidden techniques. After using it, one could directly learn a large number of skills, and it was an excellent fertilizer for watering his own origin spirit seed.

All I can say is that the rewards for this mission far exceed those of the hidden missions in Yunyin, but the difficulty is also a little higher, and if you fail to achieve the goal, you will get nothing.

The advantage of the hidden missions in the Hidden Cloud Village is that he can extort money from the Raikage from time to time and earn a steady income.

Of course Zabuza had to complete this hidden mission, not only for the ninjutsu scroll of the Hidden Mist Village, but also for the huge amount of world exploration that would definitely be generated.

And if he could indirectly control the Hidden Mist Village through Zabuza, it would be easier for him to cause trouble in the ninja world.

"Lord Calamity, please wait a moment."

Sure enough, Zabuza followed and his tone became much more respectful.

In the ninja world, the strong are respected. Lu Li's strength has already convinced Zabuza, and the promised benefits made it impossible for Zabuza to refuse.

After Lu Li stopped, Zabuza caught up with a child, "This child is Bai, a boy, with Ice Release Bloodline Genkai."

Lu Li took a look at the boy with red lips, white teeth, long hair and pink face. He didn't look like a boy at all.

He knew that Zabuza's intention in introducing Bai to him was to let him know Bai's value and not abandon this useful "tool".

"Ice Escape? You're a kid with potential. Come along and take care of it yourself."

Lu Li was not interested in helping Zabuza take care of the child. It was true that Bai had great potential, but he didn't have time to help with training the child, and he couldn't help during this world tour as a child.

"Mr. Zabuza, I will work hard."

The young Bai said timidly, looking at Lu Li with some fear.

Zabuza carried Bai on his back and followed Lu Li, "Lord Tianzai, where are we going?"

"Tianzhiguo, let's settle you down first."

Lu Li said that he had a feeling that Akatsuki would take action soon, and before that he planned to send Zabuza to Orochimaru's base as a reserve force for Konoha's destruction plan.

At the same time, Mr. Orochimaru, who is a well-known and excellent teacher of Naruto, can also help Zabuza train Haku. I believe Haku will become stronger than if he followed Zabuza.

Orochimaru's teaching ability is not exaggerated. The copy ninja Kakashi spent half a day teaching Sasuke the Raikiri, and he forced Sasuke, a genius, to be caught up by Naruto.

After joining Orochimaru, Sasuke made rapid progress and his skills in pretending to be awesome also improved.

…………

"Mr. Lu... where did you get so much money?"

When Orochimaru saw the billions that Lu Li took out, he was wavering between joy and shock, and his voice even rose several decibels.

"I have my own way, don't you want it, senior?"

Lu Li did not explain too much. To be honest, robbing merchants was not a good thing in the ninja world, otherwise Cardo would not have lived so many years.

After all, the ninja camp system is mainly employed by wealthy people. If all the ninjas go to rob wealthy businessmen, the world will be in chaos. Therefore, even the Akatsuki organization has never done so.

The reason why Lu Li didn't wear his windbreaker was that he didn't want the Akatsuki organization to find out about this and blame him for affecting the image of the organization.

Well, yes, although Akatsuki gives people the feeling of an international terrorist organization in the original work, it was actually mainly known as a mercenary organization during this period.

As mercenaries, credit is naturally very important, so the Akatsuki organization will not mess around with potential employers in the world, as that would not allow them to make money in the long run.

"Thanks to Mr. Lu for the funding. The primary cell research project will be restarted soon."

Orochimaru smiled sinisterly. He didn't know why, but he felt that Lu Li attached great importance to the project, so he said something to cater to the investor's interests.

"I hope your research goes smoothly. By the way, these two are my new subordinates. They will be useful combat forces in the future."

Lu Li introduced Zabuza and Haku to Orochimaru, "The kid is an ice escape ninja, please teach him if you have time in your spare time, senior."

"Haha...Mr. Lu, you really give me constant surprises."

Orochimaru licked his tongue and leaned over to look at Haku, causing Haku to shrink behind Zabuza in fear, clinging to Zabuza's trouser legs tightly.

"I never thought that Orochimaru, one of the Three Ninjas, would be in the Land of Rice. You are building a village next to Konoha. Do you want to fight back?"

After seeing Orochimaru, Zabuza imagined a lot of plots in his mind. Considering that Lu Li and Orochimaru were both Konoha's traitors, he felt that his imagination was probably correct.

"Momochi Zabuza, I remember you were a genius from the Hidden Mist Village, and you defected after your failed attempt to assassinate the Mizukage?"

Orochimaru withdrew his gaze from Shiro, and when he looked at Zabuza, he was a little uninterested. He had seen many geniuses, and Zabuza's strength seemed average to him.

On the contrary, Bai, the ice-style ninja kid, is still a piece of rough jade, and he is interested in carving it.

Just like Kimimaro, Orochimaru doesn't hate teaching children. As long as they are geniuses, he is happy to tutor them, which gives him a different sense of accomplishment.

Furthermore, cultivating an outstanding talent could also serve as his backup body, which had multiple benefits.

Of course, the best body in his mind right now is still Kimimaro's. Bai looks a little weak, and I wonder if he can become strong under his teaching.
