In American TV shows: Get stronger by spending money!

“You have no chakra, you’re not a ninja, where did you get this headband?” Nagini asked coldly.

Nagini herself has a cold, or rather misanthropic, personality. Her blood curse and her experience in the circus make it impossible for her to be so positive and sunny. Even when she was with Sue, she was not the kind of person who was flamboyant or had a strong presence.

In addition, she has been hunting and capturing demons and angels a lot recently, and has experienced a lot of battles, so her personality has become even colder and more depressed.

Especially when facing a target to apprehend!

"Have you heard of the Akatsuki?" Damon asked.

"Akatsuki Organization?"

Nagini frowned and shook his head: "The Akatsuki you're talking about is a ninja organization? Like me?"

Damon nodded: "They are all ninjas from the So clan, the god of ninjas!"

Nagini opened her mouth to refute, she had never heard of the Akatsuki organization, if the Akatsuki organization was really a group of ninjas, why was it not in a certain ninja group?

However, what Damon took out was indeed a ninja headband, and he said it came from the ninja god Su. So Nagini did not deny it directly, but instead took out his phone to ask Su.

Then—the rustling sound started again.

A figure suddenly emerged from the nearby woods.

"Nagini?"

"Richnerne?"

The newcomer was none other than the werewolf Rikinale.

"What's going on?" Ricky Neller glanced at Nagini and Damon, who were facing off, and frowned slightly, noticing the headband on Damon's hand.

Headbands are definitely not everyday items, nor do they belong to the exotic cultures of Europe and America. Although many people may know about ninjas, it is definitely not to the extent that headbands are involved. Only chakra ninjas would regard headbands as standard equipment and a characteristic!

Even so, not all ninjas wear their headbands all the time; at most, they carry them on their person and only put them on when needed.

Firstly, it serves as a ritual to signify one's identity, and secondly, wearing a headband can increase the speed of chakra refining and recovery. Although it is definitely worn during training or battle, it is rarely worn in daily life.

"Have you heard of the Akatsuki?" Nagini asked Rachinella.

Ricky Naylor nodded: "I've heard of it. There used to be a member of the Akatsuki organization by Master's side. I think his name was Kakuzu."

When Sue was working on the True Blood storyline, he used Kakuzu's alias. He used it to deal with Bill Compton, the male protagonist of True Blood, and that's how the authorities learned about Kakuzu.

The rumors circulating about the Akatsuki organization are what allowed Damon to confirm its existence.

“Kakuzu, he’s the one who gave me this headband. Now I’m a member of Akatsuki, so I’m one of you guys, right?” Damon said hurriedly upon seeing this.

Nagini and Ricky Neller exchanged glances. Nagini said, "Even if you're a member of Akatsuki, even if you're a ninja, if the bounty doesn't specifically state it, then it's irrelevant!"

“If there were no bounty, I would let you leave! But now, your status as a member of Akatsuki doesn't make you any higher than the bounty offered by God!”

Nagini's attitude was clear: since the Sue family did not specifically mention Damon's identity when they issued the bounty, it meant that his identity was not important at all.

What happened to the Akatsuki members?

Are the Akatsuki members also from the Su clan?

Could a mere member possibly be more valuable than a bounty personally issued by the Su family?

She's definitely going to capture Damon.

Of course, after capturing someone, she would consult with the Su family. If the Su family wanted to release the person, she would release them; if not, she would simply complete the mission normally.

"Are you sure you want to arrest me? Let me tell you, Kakuzu only found me after the bounty was put on me and got me to join Akatsuki, and... he's nearby." Damon said, suddenly looking at Nagini and Richinella with a surprised and delighted expression.

"Kakuzu, come save me!"

Damon shouted excitedly, then turned and ran without looking back.

Chapter 422 Damon is captured, Kakuzu rescues him?

"call out--"

The swift whooshing sound of air being cut rang in Damon's ears the moment he turned to run, followed by a wild, beast-like afterimage that overtook him on the bend and arrived in front of him first.

Damon instinctively threw a punch, but the afterimage in front of him accelerated again and disappeared instantly.

"boom!"

Damon felt a heavy punch land on his cheek, so powerful that he could faintly hear the sound of bones cracking.

Immediately afterwards, he was sent flying sideways.

With several thuds, Damon crashed into several tree trunks, breaking them in one after another, and fell heavily to the ground.

The world spun around me, and I saw stars.

Damon gritted his teeth, staggered, and shook his head, trying to get up, but when he looked up, he saw Nagini already standing in front of him.

"Latent Shadow Snake Hand!"

Nagini waved her hand, and in an instant, countless snakes emerged from her sleeves and bit Damon, binding him tightly as if by ropes.

“Verbena…” Damon groaned in pain as he discovered that the snake that had bitten him was covered in verbena.

This left Damon heartbroken and furious.

Are you even human?

They were clearly powerful ninjas, there were two of them, it was a complete stomp, so why did they use verbena?

That's so unfair!

What's so special about this being 14?

This ninja is clearly very strong, yet he is overly cautious?

Ignoring Damon's grief and anger, Nagini and Ricky Nelson discussed the matter briefly and decided that Ricky Nelson would escort Damon to complete the mission, while Nagini would contact the Su clan to inquire about the Akatsuki organization and secretly escort him to avoid any accidents.

A certain letter, a ninja group.

Nagini briefly reported that he and Ricky had captured Damon and learned that Damon was a member of Akatsuki, and then circled Su Shi.

Having watched the entire process via live stream, Su first acknowledged the existence of the Akatsuki organization and briefly introduced its modus operandi.

As for whether Damon was spared because of the Akatsuki organization, Su's answer was quite simple.

One yard owned by a yard.

Under normal circumstances, it would be impossible for a bounty mission to be offered to a ninja or one of their own. The fact that it has appeared means that the Su family approves of the bounty!

As for personal relationships and individual decisions, that's a personal matter and has nothing to do with the mission.

Sue will not personally help Damon. Rules are rules. If you break the rules as soon as they are established, how can you expect others to abide by them?

However—if the real person doesn't show up, an alternate account can!

This is the advantage of using an alias. After all, there are always things you want to do but can't do for some reason. Using an alias solves the problem.

Although Damon's strength was a bit lacking, Su Shi still had high hopes for his personality and abilities. Besides, he had taken the blame for her, so she would definitely save him. However, she would have to wait until Ricky Neller finished his mission before saving him. After all, this was the ninjas' first serious mission. What would happen if she messed it up when they had already succeeded?

Su glanced in the direction of the bathroom; Amber was taking a shower, preparing to go out to eat with her later.

"Oh!"

Shadow Clone Technique: Summon a clone.

"Oh!"

Transformation Technique: Transforms shadow clones into the likeness of Kakuzu.

Immediately following up with the Flying Thunder God Technique, he sensed Damon's location and instantly teleported there.

Kakuzu's shadow clone wasn't there to rescue Damon, but rather to make an appearance with Nagini and Ricky Naylor, and then rescue Damon from his employer, Carol Lockwood, after they completed their mission.

Two flowers bloom, one branch each.

Leaving aside the fact that Sue was dating and having a romance with Amber in New York, let's just say that after Kakuzu's shadow clone teleported to Damon's location, he arranged a plan to stop Nagini and Rachel from escorting Damon.

It has to be said that the Akatsuki's uniform is really cool. Nagini and Ricky were indeed a little nervous when they saw this unfamiliar ninja because—this outfit doesn't look like that of a good person!

Kakuzu's shadow clone nodded slightly to them as a greeting, then looked at Damon, who had a hopeful expression on his face: "Do you have money?"

Damon was stunned.

Kakuzu's shadow clone frowned in disappointment: "No? That's a real shame."

As he spoke, Kakuzu's shadow clone stepped aside to make way: "You can take him to turn in the mission now. Don't worry, I won't interfere."

"Wait! I have money, I have money!" Damon finally realized. "How much money will it take for you to save me?"

"How much do you think your life is worth?" Kakuzu's shadow clone asked with interest.

Damon hesitated for a moment, then tentatively asked, "Five, five million US dollars?"

Kakuzu's shadow clones remained unmoved.

That's too little!

Damon added, "Ten million, no, fifty million! I'm willing to pay fifty million if you can save me!"

Kakuzu's shadow clone spoke: "How long?"

"One week! If you're willing to save me, I guarantee I'll come up with fifty million within a week!" Damon hurriedly promised, as if grasping at a straw.

"it is good."

Kakuzu's shadow clone agreed.

Damon breathed a sigh of relief, noticing that the two female ninjas escorting him had become tense and on guard.

To be honest, he was quite curious to know just how strong Kakuzu of the Akatsuki organization really was.

However, after a long while, Kakuzu did not make a move.

"Why...why haven't you made a move yet?" Damon couldn't help but urge.

Kakuzu's shadow clone rolled its eyes at Damon: "I promised to save you, but I didn't say when or from whom!"

"You're going to hand him over to the employer who issued the mission, right? I won't stop you. I'll take action after you've handed over the mission!"

Nagini and Ricky Neller glanced at Gadu a few times, then cautiously escorted Damon away.

Damon panicked: "Hey, aren't you afraid I'll get killed? If I die, you won't get the fifty million!"
