Chapter 374
【Watching the two run towards the distant forest, Kakuzu looked at Kakashi in the encirclement and reminded him in a friendly manner: "No one is following? You underestimated Hidan too much. The young man named Shikamaru could have been worth more bounty, but unfortunately he is dead today."】
【"However, your judgment is correct. I am indeed very strong..." Kakuzu raised his arm, and a large number of black tentacles emerged from the sutures on his arm: "Compared with me, you have too much combat experience. Seeing your forehead protectors reminds me of the first Konoha ninja I fought with..."】
【"The first Hokage!"】
["Well, although I know that Kakuzu is a bounty hunter, is it necessary to use the bounty every time to evaluate a person's value!"]
["Although there is Some vulgar, but after excluding identity and status, it can also be regarded as a reference standard for strength! ”]
[“Does anyone know how much the bounty on Shikamaru is on the black market recently?”]
[“It was several million taels before, but now it should be at least tens of millions, maybe it can catch up with his teacher!”]
[“Damn it! What mission is there? Just go to Konoha and lie in wait. As long as you can catch a bounty target, you don’t have to worry about the rest of your life!”]
[“Eating shit can’t catch up with hot ones! Now the people who are targeting them can be ranked from the Land of Fire to the Land of Lightning. If you want to make a move, stand out from the competitors first!”]
“Alas! It’s like this again...” Shikamaru covered his head with a headache. This was not him pretending, but he was really annoyed.
It's hard to cool down the heat, but it will be heated up again after the curtain falls today. Naruto, you should come out and attract attention...
["Hey! What did I just hear? Who did Kakuzu say he fought with?"]
["What the hell! How come the name of the First Hokage suddenly popped up!"]
["When I heard Kakuzu boasting that he was strong, I snorted disdainfully. When I heard that the other party lacked combat experience, I snorted disdainfully. When I heard that he had fought with the First Hokage, I knelt on the spot and exclaimed!"]
["Well... If we use the First Hokage as the standard, there is no way to evaluate Kakuzu's strength! Because so far, the only record of the First Hokage's attack was the battle with the Third Hokage, but that obviously cannot represent his true level..."]
["If we use Uchiha Madara as the standard, the First Hokage is slightly stronger than him in strength, and Uchiha Madara's strength can refer to Itachi Although he told a lot of lies in the battle, it should be more or less believable!"]
["By this conversion method, Kakuzu's strength level is about the same as Itachi's!"]
["No, you believe what he says! I also said that I fought fiercely with Naruto and we were evenly matched!"]
["What's so strange about fighting with Naruto? Now it's the Chunin Exam, and many people have done this!"]
In the Pure Land, Hashirama Senju scratched his head: "Why don't I remember fighting with this guy?"
Tobirama Senju on the side didn't even look at him, with his hands folded in front of his chest, thinking that apart from Uchiha Madara, how many people do you remember fighting with you...
Uchiha Madara on the other side, after seeing Kakuzu boasting on the sky, snorted disdainfully. This kind of bastard dared to boast that he had fought with Hashirama. He was a master if he could survive ten rounds under the hands of the wooden clone.
In the meeting room of the Hokage building, Tsunade looked at Tianmu in surprise: "I actually fought with Grandpa. The people of Akatsuki are not only amazingly powerful and weird, but also have extraordinary identities!"
Onoki touched his chin, recalled for a moment and said: "I remember that in the early days of the establishment of each ninja village, the first five shadows were more or less assassinated by some opponents, but this does not prove that what Kakuzu said is true. After all, with the strength of Hashirama, Kakuzu is far from being able to fight him."
Hidan, holding the back of his head with both hands, looked at Tianmu and raised his eyebrows: "Kakuzu, you have fought with the first generation of Hokage, I have never heard you say that!"
"Shut up!" Kakuzu suddenly had a hint of anger. Hidan's unreliable attitude made him involuntarily think of the extremely embarrassing assassination.
I still remember that when Kakuzu received the task assigned to him by the village, this was probably what he thought in his heart.
Eh... Is it true? I beat Hashirama! ?
So after the assassination failed, Kakuzu went back and killed the village elders who had given him the task, and then defected with the secret technique of Earthly Resentment. Otherwise, who would he be asked to assassinate next?【Such a statement made Kakashi and the other two all look shocked, and Kakashi couldn't help asking, "Is it really immortal?!"】
【However, Kakuzu denied his statement: "No, there is no such thing as immortality in this world. I just kept snatching other people's hearts and storing them for use before my heart stopped beating. In this way, I have survived."】
【"I can store five hearts, including my own. Kakashi, the heart you destroyed will be replaced with yours."】
【While speaking, the tentacles of the two black monsters intertwined and merged into one. Kakashi recognized that these were two monsters that had performed Fire Style and Wind Style. It is easy to imagine what Kakuzu was thinking. 】
["My first reaction when I heard about the first Hokage was that Kakuzu was some resurrected old antique? It took me a few seconds to realize that, oh, he just lived longer! Why did my thinking circuit extend directly to the direction of resurrection!!"]
["Many people have this situation. Now when they encounter something they can't understand, their first reaction is to consider the most unlikely situation. It has almost become a habit!"]
["Can he stay alive forever by replacing his heart? I'm curious about the structure of his body!"]
["It is basically certain that Kakuzu has no other organs in his body. Otherwise, as long as one organ ages and dies, the entire body will not be able to continue to stay active!"]
["What about the brain? How can he think without a brain?"]
["Maybe it's the effect of those black tentacles. Maybe they can think instead of the brain!"]
["Then Kakuzu is still himself, right? He can't have been replaced by these things?"]
["That depends on him!"]
