Land of Rain, Amegakure.
In a building, Hanzo gazed at the village outside the window.
Since they cooperated with the chamber of commerce represented by Kakuzu, their Amegakure has developed fiercely.
The originally dilapidated village has also been renovated with high-rise buildings and new houses, and there are more people chatting joyfully on the streets. The faces of the people in the village, whether they are ninjas or civilians, are filled with hope.
This is what he hopes to see most, and it is his honor as the leader of Amegakure to be able to witness all this.
But he still felt like something was missing.
Thinking about it, Hanzo left the bed and returned to his office.
He sat on a luxurious leather chair that was covered with a complete tiger skin blanket.
The table was made of precious sandalwood.
The light above his head was from a crystal chandelier, and on the cabinet behind it displayed various rare ornaments.
Amegakure rained all year round, and the outside looks extremely humid, but the office is very dry. Several dehumidification machines are operating to keep the expensive items in the office dry.
It doesn't mean anything, just money.
The money they earned in just one year was more than all the money they had accumulated since the establishment of Amegakure.
"What am I missing?"
Sanshouyu Hanzo picked up the glass carved from crystal and poured himself a glass of red wine. He took off his gas mask and took a sip when no one was around.
"Tuk-tuk-tuk~!"
There was a knock on the door of the office. Hanzo put down the crystal cup and put on his mask.
"Enter!"
A ninja from Amegakure walked in.
"Lord Hanzo, Kakuzu would like to see you."
"Kakuzu? Oh, counting the time, it's time to pay dividends again."
Hanzo probably guessed what Kakuzu was going to do and nodded.
"Let him come."
"clear."
Soon Kakuzu was brought into Sansho Hanzo's office.
"Oh my, Leader Hanzo, I miss you so much after not seeing you for a few days. I see that your complexion is getting better and better."
Seeing Kakuzu, Hanzo also rarely smiled.
"Haha, this is all thanks to Mr. Kakuzu. You and the businessmen behind you have brought huge benefits to our Amegakure and allowed our Amegakure to develop.
As the saying goes, it is easier to do things if you have money. After having enough funds, it is easier for me, the leader, to do a lot, and my complexion naturally improves. "
As he spoke, he made a gesture of invitation.
"Come and sit down, Mr. Kakuzu, do you want to have a drink with me."
Most people are not qualified to drink with Sansho Hanzo. After all, Sansho Hanzo has a poison sac transplanted into his body, which makes him highly toxic every time he breathes in. He has to wear a special gas mask to be able to interact normally with other people, let alone communicate.
But Kakuzu was fine. Kakuzu, who had transformed his body with the secret technique of Earthly Grudge Fear, was not afraid of poisons. Ordinary poisons had no effect on him. Even if it was a specially made poison, the worse he could do would be to change his heart.
This advantage also makes Kakuzu one of the few people who can drink and communicate with Hanzo leisurely.
"Good, it just so happens that I'm feeling a little greedy for wine."
Kakuzu was not polite to Hanzo, so he sat down and took the wine glass handed to him by Sansho Hanzo.
The two of them didn't talk about money. After all, they had worked together for such a long time, they had tacit understanding on what topics they should avoid .
The two chatted over the fine wine. Kakuzu told stories about what he had seen during his business, and Hanzo talked about the things he encountered when he was the leader.
The two of them had a pretty good time chatting.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Kakuzu took out a sealing scroll.
"Leader Hanzo, I am here to give you this month's dividend. The dividend money is all in this scroll. You can pass it over and count the amount."
"No need, we have been cooperating for such a long time, and I have watched the changes you brought to Amegakure. I don't need to check or anything like that. I believe in you."
"Okay, then thank you for the trust, leader Hanzo, I'll toast to you."
As he spoke, Kakuzu picked up the cup and drank it in one gulp.
"Okay! Drink, I'll fill it up for Mr. Kakuzu."
Hanzo also filled Kakuzu's cup of with his own hands.
Kakuzu continued.
"Leader Hanzo, actually, there is a wealthy businessman in our chamber of commerce who admires you very much.
He thinks that you are a rare hero in the ninja world. Fighting and winning against several major ninja villages with the power of one village. This kind of courage is one of a kind.
He asked that I bring you some gifts, I hope you will accept them."
"Oh! Someone in your chamber of commerce appreciates me!?"
Salamander Hanzo was also a little surprised.
"He also asked you to bring me gifts."
"That's right, leader Hanzo, please take a look."
Kakuzu took out the seal scroll and opened it in front of Sanshouyu Hanzo.
There are two more things on the table, one is a solid gold statue of Hanzo, and the other is the Yukage hat that has been prepared long ago.
When he saw the Yukage hat, Hanzo could no longer take his eyes away.
"This is! This is the Yukage bamboo hat?"
"That's right, that wealthy businessman thought that Leader Hanzo is worthy of it. You have fought with major ninja villages and triumphed, giving you the qualifications to be on equal footing with their so-called Five Kages, so he specially asked someone to customize such a hat. I hope you will like it."
"I like it. Of course I like it. I love it so much. This wealthy businessman from your chamber of commerce really understands me. He really is a confidant I have never met."
Hanzo stretched out his hands and picked up the Yukage hat with some excitement.
Kakuzu said with a smile.
"Then please ask Yukage to wear the hat and see if it fits."
Hearing Kakuzu call himself Yukage, Hanzo felt particularly comfortable. He raised the hat and put it on his head.
"It's suitable, it's really comfortable, but there's still something missing."
"Is there anything missing?"
Kakuzu was also stunned for a moment, no way, what else does this guy want? Is he that greedy?
"Yes, there is still a little something missing, but I have prepared it before."
Hanzo stood up and walked to a mahogany carved cabinet. He opened the cabinet door. There was only one piece of clothing hanging in this huge cabinet.
Kakuzu could tell what kind of clothes it was. It was a Yukage robe that matched the Yukage hat.
The white robe has purple raindrop patterns on the lower part and edges, and there are several large characters written on the back, First Generation Yukage.
Good guy, it turns out that this old bastard has prepared this for himself a long time ago.
Seeing this Yukage robe, Kakuzu couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it was exactly as Chiba boss expected.
Hanzo put on the Yukage robe, straightened the Yukage hat, turned around and asked.
"How about it, Mr. Kakuzu, does this fit me well?"
Kakuzu clapped his hands and applauded.
"It's so appropriate. As expected of Master Yukage, you should wear this outfit and become the Yukage of Amegakure and the Sixth Kage in the ninja world."
"Hahaha, Mr. Kakuzu, well said. Thank the wealthy businessman for me and please allow him the opportunity to visit our Amegakure. I will definitely entertain him well."
