Chapter 44 Izuna: Tobirama, the Born Evil Hand
"Boss! Boss! We've struck it rich! We've struck it rich!"
Kakuzu pushed open the door to the tea room, excitedly gesturing wildly.
Inside the tea room, Tetsuya and Izuna calmly sipped their tea.
"Kakuzu, calm down. You must learn to calm down. As long as the ninja world hasn't been destroyed, we must all learn to remain calm, understand?"
"I understand, boss. I was just too excited."
Kakuzu took several deep breaths before he could finally calm his excited emotions.
Indeed, choosing to follow my boss was the best decision I ever made.
The money I made just from hoarding grain and iron ore this time alone is more than I could have earned even if I had completed all the tasks at the gold exchange.
"Come, have a seat and some tea."
Tetsuya poured Kakuzu a cup of tea.
Kakuzu sat down, took a sip of his drink, and then spoke.
"Boss, several groups of people have already contacted us. They want us to sell them iron ore, and they are willing to pay 30% more."
How many groups of people are there?
Kakuzu thought about it carefully.
"Hmm, four groups of people. Besides Kirigakure, all four major ninja villages have come. Boss, should I hold an auction and let them bid against each other?"
It has to be said that Kakuzu's mind is always sharp when it comes to making money.
The Ninja War is about to break out in full force, and this guy is still thinking of bringing people from the four great ninja villages to hold an auction to make money.
Tetsuya shook his head.
"No, you're going too far with this. It could easily cause trouble."
"So, should we just sell it at the price they offered?"
"No, that won't do. Tell them to add another half percent."
"clear."
Kakuzu nodded. Even if it was just an additional 0.5%, it would still be a large sum of money based on their current reserves.
"Oh, and remember to supply these four companies with roughly the same amount of goods. Don't sell to just one company, and don't sell less to any one company either, understand?"
"I understand."
With a reply, Kakuzu left excitedly.
Izuna asked.
"Why sell similar goods to four different companies? Why not sell the goods to just one company?"
Tetsuya smiled.
"This is called equilibrium. With our current iron ore reserves and the prices offered, no single entity can absorb all the iron ore we have."
Furthermore, if someone were to consume all of our stockpiles by themselves, just imagine how many ninja tools could be made from that much iron? If such a large number of ninja tools were deployed in a war, it would likely have a significant impact on the course of the battle.
I don't want to see one side gain too much of an advantage, because the longer they fight, the more money we can make, right?
Upon hearing Tetsuya's words, Izuna was speechless.
"You really are frightening. In the Fourth Shinobi World War, ninjas from various villages paid with their blood and lives, but here you have turned it into your business. If they found out, they would probably do anything to kill you."
"Hey, you're wrong about that. Did I start the Ninja World War?"
Tetsuya spread his hands and shrugged.
"No, they started the war themselves. I also want peace in the ninja world so I can do business properly. But they didn't want it; they were the ones who started the war. I just took advantage of the war to make a small fortune. After all, I'm a businessman, and what businessman doesn't make money?"
Izuna remained silent. He picked up his teacup, took a sip of tea, and spoke after a long silence.
"To say something you might not want to hear, I can't revive Madara Uchiha for the time being."
Upon hearing this, Izuna frowned.
"My ability to resurrect people is limited. I have a specific resurrection order, and I can only resurrect people in a specific order."
"Then who can you resurrect now?"
Tetsuya grinned.
"He's also an old acquaintance of yours, Tobirama Senju."
"The inherently evil Tobirama Senju! How could it be this guy?!"
Upon hearing that name, Izuna's anger surged. That despicable white-haired guy—he would never forget the sneak attack and betrayal he suffered, even in death. It was a blood feud, a true blood feud, because he was the one who killed him.
"Why this guy? Couldn't you have revived someone else first?"
Tetsuya shrugged.
"No, that's why I didn't revive a second person even though I had saved up enough money. If I had revived Tobirama Senju, he would most likely have run back to Konoha to help the village develop."
Uchiha Izuna clenched his fists, stood up, and paced back and forth.
"How about this: you revive him, and then the two of us team up to kill this guy."
Upon hearing this, Tetsuya could only say "6".
This thought process is truly bizarre; first, they revive the opponent, and then they kill them.
"I'm afraid that won't work. You are the ones I resurrected. As long as I live, you will not die."
There was another part that Zhe didn't say: that, possessing the immortal body of an evil god, he theoretically shouldn't die.
"Then, how about we seal him away?"
"Well, how about we wait until after the Fourth Shinobi World War is over before we talk about it?"
"Ok."
Izuna sighed.
"It seems that sealing is not very effective. With the talent of the naturally evil Tobirama Senju, I'm afraid there is no seal that can contain him."
Although I hate to admit it, that guy's brain is a little bit sharper than the average person's. Give him enough time, who knows what kind of magic he'll come up with.
After all, he was even able to develop such a treacherous technique as the Flying Thunder God Slash.
Tetsuya smiled; it was clear that Izuna had a lot of complaints about Tobirama.
What would happen if he found out that he saved Tobirama's life using his name?
After thinking it over, Tetsuya decided that it was best not to tell the other person.
The conflicts in the ninja world are becoming increasingly serious, especially with the availability of large quantities of iron ore and food. Each ninja village has directly increased its investment in the front lines. With food and equipment, what are they waiting for if they don't increase their investment now? Are they waiting for others to increase their investment first?
What they probably didn't expect was that it wasn't just their village that bought grain and iron ore, and even less did they expect that the grain and iron ore they bought all came from the same person.
The wealth of the four great ninja villages all flowed into the same person; Kakuzu, who was collecting the money, was practically laughing himself to death.
"Boss, we've struck it rich! We've really struck it rich! All the money from four ninja villages is now in our hands. I never even dared to dream of this!"
Kakuzu placed the sealing scroll on the coffee table, grinning from ear to ear.
Tetsuya smiled, opened the scroll and checked it; the scroll was sealed with money.
Even he couldn't help but get excited when he saw so much money.
He put down the scroll and asked warily.
"Well done, you didn't leave any loose ends for them to catch."
"Don't worry, boss, they will never find out that the person who sold them the products is actually the same person."
As he spoke, Kakuzu revealed a wicked grin.
