Chapter Twenty-Five: Transactions and Identity!
The steps made a crisp sound on the tightly knit stone slabs, and the narrow corridor made Su Zeying have to keep his head down and move forward slowly. Coupled with the severe inclination of the road under his feet, he had to move slowly and carefully. Until the end, we finally reached the end of this road.
- Through a small hole, a small room came into view.
The walls of this room were sturdy, and the yellow and red candles were lit on the walls, and the whole interior was filled with a faint light. There was nothing but the candles, the walls of the room, and a chair standing in the center of the room.
Su Zeying stepped in swoopping.
As soon as I entered the room, a faint cold aura hit me, making people feel a little uncomfortable.
But in Su Zeying's perception, everything is like a candle reflecting on the wall, and it is delicate, whether it is the breath of life hidden behind the seemingly tightly fitting stone wall in front of the chair, or the empty storage room behind the four walls, it is all reflected in the perception.
He smiled softly.
Su Zeying walked in front of the chair and sat down without hesitation.
——The next moment, with a bang, the stone wall in front of me suddenly flipped over!
Then, a man covered in a black robe appeared in front of him!
The man's face was deeply hidden in the robe, and the dark gaze poked out of the deep robe, locking on Su Zeying tightly:
"I don't know who Your Excellency is? Why know this place? What are you here for? ”
The man asked unhurriedly in a deliberately disguised hoarse voice.
Su Zeying sat on the chair with a leisurely expression, clasped his hands to his chest, and smiled indifferently with Hattori Hanzo's face:
"I think everyone who can come here knows what this is - so please stop talking about this nonsense. After all, you are just an exchange, one that can provide what you need, no matter who you are. So the so-called identity should be insignificant...... I'm here to seek something, and my only fear is that you won't be able to provide it...... You say yes, the head of the underground exchange in Tsujino Castle? ”
Su Zeying said with a smile, looking at the man in front of him sharply, and leaning forward slightly unconsciously.
The black-robed man's robe shook slightly, and the next moment, he laughed hoarsely:
"Hahahaha! Your Excellency is right – whoever comes here, whoever they are, is nothing more than our customers! ”
His laughter suddenly stopped, and his eyes like a falcon shot at Su Zeying:
"So—I wonder what Your Excellency is here for? What else can you give? ”
Su Zeying gently raised her fingers and smiled slightly:
"Money."
"Hehe, there are many things in this world that money can't buy...... Anyway, I don't think you would have made such a difficult request, so please tell us what you need. ”
The black-robed man turned his hand sideways and said hoarsely to Su Zeying.
Su Zeying grinned and said confidently:
"What I need is information—information about the three shinobi of Konoha: Orochimaru, Jiraiya, Tsunade. I need their recent range of operations, haunts, and more information like this, the more the better. ”
Although only Tsunade's information is needed, showing too many tendencies can easily make people suspicious, and it will also arouse the interest of others to investigate.
In addition, whether it was for Orochimaru or Jiraiya, Su Zeying was a little interested, so he naturally chose to package and buy the information of the three ninjas.
Unexpectedly, although it was only intelligence, the black-robed man in front of him hesitated for a moment.
"I didn't think what Your Excellency needed was this ......"
"Oh?"
Su Zeying couldn't help but be surprised.
"Could it be that if the supernatural powers are as vast as yours, will there be any problems?"
"Hehehehehe......"
The black-robed man let out a wry laugh that sounded extremely gloomy.
“…… I'm sorry, but the information about the three ninjas of Konoha is not a normal thing to buy and sell. Whether it's Orochimaru, Jiraiya, or Tsunade-hime, they are all the top ninjas in the world, if we sell the information about these adults at will, then once these adults know, although it will not destroy the exchange, it will also bring us a great crisis. ”
Listening to the words of the black-robed man, Su Zeying narrowed his eyes slightly and sneered:
"Originally, I heard that you are the well-deserved overlord of the underground world, a dark organization that has existed throughout the history of the ninja world, and even since the samurai era in the distant past, I thought that you were so domineering, but I didn't expect you to be so cowardly......"
"No, no, no, Your Excellency is wrong......"
The black-robed man bowed very politely, and continued to speak coldly in a hoarse voice:
“…… In fact, it is true that we can sell anything at a sufficient price - but for now, Your Excellency is not worthy of us to betray the information of the three ninjas, and even meet the three ninja for revenge. ”
The black-robed man gently bought a nail in his words, and Su Zeying immediately noticed it.
"So...... What does it mean to be eligible? ”
Su Zeying's face was relieved and he laughed softly.
"That's ......"
The black-robed man also laughed:
“…… Become a partner of our underground exchange, help us carry out those assassination missions, and reach a certain number - a strong person like Hattori Hanzo-sama must be able to do this soon, right? ”
Time seemed to stand still.
The atmosphere seemed a little suffocating.
Su Zeying squinted his eyes, the smile on his face had disappeared, he looked at the black-robed man in front of him coldly, moved his hand to the handle of the knife on his waist, and said slowly:
"You, know, Tao, me?"
The black-robed man didn't seem to feel the thick murderous aura on Su Zeying's body, he still lowered his head slightly, and said respectfully:
"Hattori-sama Hanzo may not know that Aoi Midori was originally a traitor to Konoha and survived by defecting to us after betraying Konoha, so everything about him has been registered. Including the fact that he was hired by Yusuke Konoemon, it was only through our intermediary that we were able to conclude this deal. And just after last night, we quickly sent someone to collect information on the scene, and although there were some omissions, it was almost certain that an adult named 'Hattori Hanzo' did it. And just now, my lord, you arrived here with this Thor's sword, so we were sure at once. ”
Su Zeying's right hand gently stroked the handle of the knife, slightly tucked her eyelids, and listened to the black-robed man talking respectfully.
He remained silent until he finished speaking.
There was a sudden silence.
After a long time, Su Zeying suddenly smiled lightly and withdrew his right hand on the hilt:
"Haha-I see!"
He smiled freely, looking extremely sunny, as if nothing had happened before.
