Naruto: The Template System

Chapter 90: Kozuki's Thoughts

Rain Village,

"So the killer was this guy Akagami Shanks?"

Standing at the top of a ruined building with rain pouring down constantly, Fukashi asked while looking towards White Zetsu.

"Hehe, Konoha really hates this guy they released such a high bounty for him, why don't we send Kakuzu to catch him, you know we are in dire need of money"

Said White Zetsu while looking at Fukashi.

"Are you stupid, that guy can kill three Kage rank powerhouses alone, we will be sending Kakuzu to his death and there's no need to fight him, we will recruit him, now go and find him"

Fukashi looked contemptuously at White Zetsu and waved his hands motioning him to go.

"What's the matter with you black, you are surprisingly quiet today"

Fukashi looked towards Black Zetsu who was in the Akatsuki Uniform and couldn't help but ask

"No, it's nothing, just thinking would Master Madara's plan would be completed or not"

Black Zetsu was very depressed today and was somewhat scared as well.

When he heard the name Akagami Shanks he couldn't help but be scared because it triggered a long-forgotten memory making him worried.

Fukashi wasn't surprised by the answer of Zetsu since lately things are developed in a direction contrary to his expectations.

The emergence of this mysterious powerhouse, only made things more confused.

But no matter who it is, he can't stop him from making a fair world.

Black Market

This was the biggest black market of the land of fire.

It was established underground under the disguise of a simple Inn.

Today a never seen before guest entered the black market.

He was around 1:9m with short red hair wearing a grey cape which was black from the inside.

Underneath the cape he wore a dark purple shirt with top buttons open revealing his bare chest and strong abdominal muscles.

He also wore black pants with white stripes on the left thigh and a big sword with a green hilt(Gryphon) was slung on his waist right beside the right hip.

He had a white mask covering his face.

"As expected of the black market, so much evil aura"

Kozuki or Akagami Shanks that the whole world was talking about couldn't help but sigh after sensing the environment.

On a wall had the lists of various rewards, the rewards were both old and new and some were even yellowed out due to the long time they remain here.

Kozuki on the top of the wall noticed his own bounty.

There was no photo of his only his record or his hair color which could be guessed by his name easily.

The in-charge here was a bald man with a single eye with the other eye damaged by a sword attack forming a slash mark.

Noticing Kozuki looking at his own bounty he came near him

"The whole world is looking for him; this is the first time someone had such a high bounty"

The bald man commented while looking towards the bounty that every bounty hunter wanted to get.

"Yeah"

Kozuki replied while changing his voice.

Kozuki even wanted to present his own head after looking at the enormous bounty.

But this huge bounty also proved to Kozuki that how much Konoha hates him now.

But he also had reasons to take the blame on him, Hokage trying to kill a Konoha Hero would shake the will of every Konoha Shinobi.

Three Konoha Kage powerhouses dying along with the disappointed Konoha Shinobi could instantly cause panic in the whole village.

But after some time passes and the world forgets about this incident, he would think of a way to deal with the remaining 2 members of F4.

One day after dealing with all the dangers of Ninja World, he will return to his beloved village.

"You look new; you can take these low danger tasks"

The boss here was very welcoming despite his fierce looks.

"No, I'm here to redeem a person's bounty"

"Who?"

Asked the boss as he was curious who had this newcomer killed.

The pupils of the boss suddenly shrank after he saw the head that suddenly appeared in the hands of Kozuki.

The sudden emergence of the head wasn't the cause of his surprise.

A cross mark on the chin and with his strong memory, he immediately recognized whose head this was and as if thinking of something his whole body began to sweat as he looked towards Kozuki with fear.

"You... are"

The other bounty hunters around were also paying attention to Kozuki since they had their eyes sight on him since the moment he entered.

No way, newcomers were the easiest to rob and they wouldn't let go of such a chance.

But when they saw the head they all suddenly once again looked at Kozuki from up to down as the fear in their eyes kept increasing.

Noticing his red hair along with the head of Danzo, they immediately recognized the person in front.

"Akagami Shanks"

Finally, someone spoke as he broke the silence as every person in the black market got alert.

Everyone in the black market surrounded Kozuki making a circle with Kozuki in the middle.

According to them, even if Kozuki was strong there was no way he could deal with everyone here.

He will be tired soon and then one of them would be able to take his head.

Sigh

"Why cause trouble"

Looking at the bounty hunters around, Kozuki sighed in annoyance as trouble would always follow him.
