Hokage: I, Kakuzu, Immortal God

"The development and establishment of villages require more support and development. Villages cannot be separated from people, and people cannot be separated from villages. The two complement each other and develop together. There is no need to return to the turbulent era of fighting and killing in the past. This is The meaning of the village’s existence.”

"Your Excellency Kakuzu, if you are willing to show a different life in the new era, you can consider joining our big family in Konoha. Perhaps in a few decades, the efforts we make today will create a new era. .”

Senju Hashirama's warm face was filled with a sunny smile.

It is precisely because of the perseverance and hard work of seniors like him that we can create the grand scene decades later.

"Hokage-sama, do you trust me so much?"

"Haha, what did you say? Why should I be worried?"

Senju Hashirama's magnanimous smile was both his mood at the moment and his response to Kakuzu.

Think about it, one of the purposes of establishing a village is to be open to all rivers, and only by being tolerant can we become strong.

Before Kakuzu left Takigakure Village, he had already cleared his identity. Now he is at best a civilian ninja who loves to visit the black market, and has nothing to do with rebel ninjas or spies.

Besides, if you're worried about the village's members, focusing on Kakuzu is really a bit redundant.

More than 300 members of the Hyuga clan entered Konoha at the same time.

These more than 300 people look like "white blinds" from a distance, and they are also a large clan. They have built their own territory in Konoha. They do not marry outsiders and rarely communicate with other clans.

But even though such a wealthy family was guarding Konoha, Senju Hashirama never had any worries about them.

The reason for this is that first of all, Senju Hashirama is a man full of love and peace. As long as he does not rebel, he is willing to live in peace with everyone.

Secondly, in terms of Senju Hashirama's strength, he really doesn't seem to have anything to worry about.

Last but not least, the strong will be respected wherever they go.

Senju Hashirama knew that Kaku was not weak (compared to ordinary people), so he extended an olive branch to him.

Kakuzu put his hands on the table and crossed his arms to rest on his chin. He was thinking about the pros and cons of Senju Hashirama's words.

I thought I would continue to make money in the black market just like in the original work.

But the established life trajectory and destiny choices have undergone tremendous changes.

Let's just say that Kakuzu's love for money still remains unchanged, but Kakuzu does not put money first in his life.

The ninja world is wonderful. If you want to live indefinitely in this world, you must not only have a long lifespan, but also have the strength to maintain a long lifespan.

His eyes unconsciously looked at Senju Hashirama in front of him.

This is a living treasure. In the future, Kakuzu must rely on Senju Hashirama's cells to transform his body, trying to eliminate the "side effects" of being unable to advance through his own cultivation.

Otherwise, it is estimated that Kakuzu's strength will be difficult to break through in decades.

However, even if the living treasure is in front of him, Kakuzu cannot reach out to take it, because there is a high probability that he will be slapped to death by Senju Hashirama, and he can only wait for his death to steal the body.

It's just that you have to be careful about stealing corpses. If you come in as a stranger and steal it, you will probably face a lot of resistance.

But if he stayed in Konoha until the moment he witnessed the death of Senju Hashirama, his plan would undoubtedly go much smoother.

Kakuzu looked at Senju Hashirama with a meaningful smile under his mask.

Perhaps Senju Hashirama couldn't see this smile, but a pair of suspicious eyes from the side looked at him again.

I don’t know if Kakuzu’s calculations were so loud that Senju Tobirama noticed something was wrong.

Senju Tobirama's gaze towards Kakuzu became more critical again. Without even thinking about it, he could guess that Senju Tobirama was most likely doubting Kakuzu again.

In this regard, Kakuzu also seemed very helpless, but Kakuzu was not too worried about it.

Because the person in charge now is someone else, Senju Hashirama, and Tobirama can only be considered a younger brother in front of Senju Hashirama. If you need anything, just go to Senju Hashirama, and don't pay attention to Senju Tobirama's gaze.

"Lord Hokage, I agree with you very much. If possible, I would like to stay in Konoha to see this different new era. However, I feel that you are not inviting me to join Konoha, but forcing me to stay here. ah!"

"Uh……"

Senju Hashirama's eyes widened.

"Did I say something wrong? Please clarify."

Kakuzu smiled under the mask, and without any nonsense, he opened his sleeves and put down his wrist guard, revealing his left arm.

"Hokage-sama, what should you say about this?"

"Ah, this!"

Senju Hashirama clearly saw a rune carved on Kakuzu's left hand, and that rune had special restrictions and could not be washed away using ordinary methods.

Senju Hashirama's face was stern and he looked to the side.

"Tobirama! Why are you still standing there? Why don't you help others get rid of it!"

Senju Tobirama glanced at Senju Hashirama's eyes, and then looked at Kakuzu's arm.

A hint of embarrassment appeared on his face, he turned his head to the side and shrugged his shoulders.

"Fei, although Flying Thunder God was created by me, I don't have a way to remove the mark of Flying Thunder God for the time being!"

"you……"

Senju Hashirama was so angry at Senju Tobirama's words that he almost jumped up from his seat.

When Kakuzu heard this, he was much calmer than Senju Hashirama, because he was mentally prepared.

It seems that Minato Namikaze said in the original novel that once the mark of the Flying Thunder God is placed, it will not disappear.

If you want to disappear, you have to grow a six-level body, or you can think of other suitable methods.

Kakuzu stood up calmly. He was not a wanted traitor now, let alone a spy from another country, so the mark of the Flying Thunder God needed to be explained.

"Master Hokage, I..."

The rest of the words suddenly got stuck in his throat.

Senju Hashirama has stood up and bowed ninety degrees to Kakuzu. The three purple lines on his head have shown that he is very frustrated at this moment. Even if he does not lower his body, Kakuzu can clearly feel that Senju Hashirama Hashirama, the best ninja in the world, was sobbing.

"Holy crap! Hokage-sama, I haven't said anything yet. Do you want this?"

Senju Tobirama next to him looked at his elder brother's frustrated expression, and he seemed to be used to it.

But I still felt a little embarrassed and covered my cheeks.

"Kakuzu, Lord Kakuzu, Smith Maser (I'm sorry), it's all my fault that caused you to suffer this unjust injustice. If possible, I would like to use the highest etiquette of seppuku to make up for the harm I did to you, but …”

Senju Hashirama suddenly raised his head, needless to say, the look on his face was like that of a child who had made a mistake.

"But Konoha still needs me now, and I can't apologize for your seppuku, so, I, I..."

Kakuzu's eyelids were twitching wildly. He felt that with Senju Hashirama in this state, the famous scene was definitely coming again.

But he couldn't afford this famous scene.

With quick eyes and hands, Kakuzu held Hashirama's head that was about to be smashed down, ending the scene where Hashirama was knocking him.

Because this kind of scene is really unbearable for everyone.

Don't look at the other four shadows who were knocked on the head by Senju Hashirama, and nothing happened to them.

That's because others have the title of Shadow after all.

But if Senju Hashirama is knocked out by Kakuzu, Kakuzu can guarantee that within 3 minutes after leaving this door, this matter will definitely make waves in Konoha.

By the time.

"You actually forced our Hokage to kowtow to you? You're done, you're dead!"

It’s not just the masters of the Senju clan, the anger of other people in Konoha is also very serious!

Kakuzu now finally understands why Senju Hashirama was able to defeat Madara Uchiha with his "frustration".

This is horrible!

A tragedy was finally prevented from happening, but Senju Hashirama's expression was still depressed, self-blaming, uncomfortable, and sad...

"Hokage-sama, forget it. Let this matter go as it is. I won't pursue it any further."

"No, Lord Kakuzu's mistakes are ultimately my fault. So, this is a favor that I, Senju Hashirama, owe you. You can come to me anytime if you need it."
