Boom boom!
As those surprised thoughts flashed through Kakuzu's mind, the ground beneath his feet suddenly erupted with giant sand hands, beginning to grab fiercely at Kakuzu and the other two mask.
At this moment, Kouki was already in Sage Mode, and the power of his Magnet Release Gold Dust was many times stronger than Rasa's.
Even while defending against Kakuzu's attacks, simultaneously attacking the three of them with his sand hands was a force to be reckoned with.
Kakuzu immediately began to dodge using the Body Flicker Technique, while also controlling the other two mask to dodge.
But in the end, they couldn't escape Kouki's "clutches." In just a moment, the two sand golden claws had grasped the masks.
Layer upon layer of sand, under Kouki's control, seemed to have a soul, actively "crawling" onto the masks bodies, completely enveloping them.
Having reached this point, the masks attacks were naturally and forcibly interrupted.
"Sand Waterfall Funeral!"
At this time, Kouki made a grasping motion towards the masks.
Boom!
The sand that had enveloped the masks into a ball exploded directly, with the masks inside being blasted into nothing.
There was no doubt that they were dead beyond dead.
"Kakuzu, now you only have one life left. Do you want to continue? If you die again, then you'll really be dead."
Kouki then withdrew his hand, as if having done something insignificant, and glanced at Kakuzu indifferently.
Glug!
Kakuzu couldn't help but swallow hard, sweat streaming down his forehead.
The power of the young man before him had completely exceeded his expectations, ridiculously strong.
How long had it been since he started fighting this person?
All four masks had been defeated by the other party.
Moreover, Kakuzu wasn't blind. He could see that the other party hadn't used much effort at all, just a couple of casual moves.
This person's strength was simply too terrifying. When had such a monster appeared in the ninja world?
At this moment, Kakuzu finally understood why Orochimaru was willing to follow this person.
"What do you take Kakuzu for?"
Although shocked in his heart, Kakuzu's face was still cold, and he didn't give in. "Want me to acknowledge you as my master like Orochimaru? Don't be ridiculous!"
Kouki naturally didn't naively believe that if he defeated Kakuzu, Kakuzu would obediently follow him.
For people at Kakuzu's level, trying to intimidate them with death was a real underestimation.
However, unless absolutely necessary, Kouki didn't want to use genjutsu to control them. Like playing a game, using cheat codes really wasn't much fun.
"Kakuzu, believe me, no one in this world knows you better than I do. Follow me, and I'll give you what you want most."
Kouki said to Kakuzu with a calm face.
"Heh." Kakuzu couldn't help but sneer. Did this person want to use some high-sounding principles to brainwash him?
It was simply the height of absurdity!
In the past, he had been brainwashed by Takigakure, and dared to kill even the God of Shinobi, but what was the result?
He ended up being betrayed.
From that point on, Kakuzu had already seen through the true face of this ninja world. Apart from hard cash, nothing else was worth trusting.
"I really want to know, what can you give me?" Kakuzu asked, looking at Kouki with extreme sarcasm.
"Money!"
Without the long speech that might have been expected, the only thing Kouki promised Kakuzu was this simple word.
Kakuzu was stunned. This answer was beyond his expectations.
"It seems that you really do understand me."
Kakuzu laughed. Even an old man like him couldn't resist the lure of money.
"How about taking what's on the ground as an advance payment?" Kouki pointed to the golden sand he had created using Magnet Release Gold Dust.
"Deal! No problem at all!"
As long as the money was right, Kakuzu was very straightforward, agreeing without any discount.
Then, he carefully took out a scroll and began to seal the sand on the ground into it little by little.
He was working so hard.
While sealing, he muttered, "This gold sand is a bit rough. I need to screen it properly when I get back. I'll be busy."
Kouki didn't interrupt Kakuzu, just stood on the side, watching the old man seal it away with a smile.
After he finished sealing, Kakuzu directly asked, "What do you need me to do?"
He was completely in a position to be used as he pleased.
"You follow Orochimaru for now. Orochimaru will tell you the specific requirements," Kouki said to Kakuzu, also giving Kakuzu a Rinnegan black rod.
"If you want to contact me about anything, just inject some chakra into this. If you ever feel that the commission I'm giving you isn't enough and you need more money, just tell me directly," Kouki also said to Kakuzu.
This generous attitude made Kakuzu feel even more satisfied with Kouki. Where could he find an employer who would let him name his own price?
"I think we'll have a very pleasant working relationship in the future," Kakuzu said with great satisfaction, putting away the Rinnegan black rod.
Village Chief Hisen and the others on the side were increasingly feeling that something was wrong.
At first, when this uninvited guest easily suppressed Kakuzu, they secretly breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that the threat of Kakuzu was finally eliminated.
But how could it be that in the blink of an eye, this person and Kakuzu had become allies?
Seeing Kouki turn his gaze towards Village Chief Hisen and the others, Kakuzu asked very reliably, "I just took your money. If you need me to, I can take care of them for you."
"I'll do it myself," Kouki said with a smile, and then walked directly towards Village Chief Hisen.
Village Chief Hisen and the others immediately felt extremely nervous, their bodies tensing up. This super god was on a completely different level, an existence that could obliterate someone like Kakuzu with casual ease.
