Kakuzu was completely baffled.

But he, who is usually taciturn, would not go out of his way to ask such a small question.

"welcome."

The main body of Madara, sitting at the desk, covered his mouth with his fingers interlaced and his elbows resting on the desk.

As for why the main body is here?

The Research Institute of Technology (RIUT) successfully developed ultra-compressed food yesterday, so Ban no longer needs to constantly gnaw on piles of meat.

Is this the real Shura of the Ninja World?

Angle narrowed his eyes, getting ready.

"I know exactly what I'm supposed to do."

"Do we have to start work now?"

Ban shook his head.

"Although you are very capable, you probably don't have enough experience in business."

Kakuzu nodded.

His previous job was as a ninja who assassinated others, not as a businessman.

"Therefore, I will arrange for you to study at an adult school for at least a year before you start working formally."

·····?

"Lord Kakuzu, our caravans from Hatsuhi Village are spread across the five great nations, and we handle countless types of trade."

"From now on you will be affiliated with Wanshanghang, so you will naturally need to know some basic business knowledge."

Lan briefly explained that adult schools teach more professional skills, while also providing some basic knowledge education.

"So I have to study at that so-called adult school for a period of time before I can work?"

Kakuzu felt very troubled, but since the other party had a bigger fist, it was better to comply.

"Ah."

He nodded.

"By the way, do you have any Fire Country currency on you?"

"The currency circulating in the village is from the Land of Fire."

Kakuzu fell silent.

He just remembered something.

He forgot to bring his money when he went out.

The two stared at each other for two seconds, and Ban understood perfectly.

"Here's 30,000 taels for you."

Kakuzu accepted the money that Madara handed him.

"Remember to return it to me after you finish working."

"These are all lent to you."

······

Is the mighty Asura of the ninja world really this stingy?

"understood."

Kakuzu calmly placed the money in his pocket.

For some reason, Lan found it somewhat amusing to witness this scene.

Who knows, even though Kakuzu is wearing a stern face right now, he might be secretly complaining about how little he was given.

"Let Lan tell you everything from now on."

"She will tell you about the village rules and other things to be aware of."

After saying that, Ban made a "please" gesture.

Kakuzu then left the place under Ran's guidance.

The two headed straight for the busiest commercial street in the village.

Because Lan wanted to arrange a separate house for Kakuzu and tell him how to find a job in the village.

Yes, work.

At this moment, Kakuzu, led by Lan, arrived at a job placement agency in the commercial district.

"Lord Lan! Welcome, welcome!"

When the junior manager of the real estate agency learned that Lan had arrived, he immediately led the two of them to a small living room.

Don't be fooled by the fact that they run a real estate agency; in reality, the company is a lower-level department of the local government, and they work directly for the village chief.

The company aims to serve the community and address the employment issues of residents within the village.

Kakuzu surveyed the somewhat lively scene around him.

So why are bipedal cats competing with humans for jobs?

"This must be Lord Kakuzu. Please tell me your skills, and I will find you a suitable position as soon as possible."

The middle-aged manager, who also had a mustache, was very enthusiastic.

After all, it was the deputy director of the Security Bureau who came specifically to make the request, so they should be given priority service.

Kakuzu glanced at Lan first, and then spoke.

"kill."

······

The manager's lips twitched, and his smile froze.

"By the way, Lord Kakuzu is a ninja, right? What elemental ninjutsu is he best at?"

"Earth Escape."

Both corners answered honestly.

He wasn't wrong with his previous answer.

"Oh oh oh!!!"

The mustachioed manager immediately became excited.

"Lord Kakuzu, we are in dire need of construction workers skilled in earth-based techniques."

"If you're willing, we can test your earth-遁 (earth-遁 is a skill or technique) skills tomorrow. If you pass, you can work in the Construction Department of the Thousand Craftsmen's Building!"

Kakuzu glanced at Lan again, only to see the other looking at him with a gentle smile.

"it is good."

Kakuzu, a ruthless man of few words, decided to grant the other party's request.

So the two parties agreed to go to the construction site again the next morning for testing.

Lan also took Kakuzu to the house he was assigned.

After wandering around for a while, the two headed towards the eastern part of the village, which is the area of ​​Wanghaiqiu.

"Lord Kakuzu, I hope you can adapt to this village as soon as possible."

"Don't worry that the villagers will be afraid of the ninjas; they are all very welcoming."

"If you can't cook, you can go to Cat's Paw Canteen. The food there is delicious. Or, let me show you around the house first."

Kakuzu looked left and right.

This village is very strange; it's unlike any other village he's ever been to.

"Lan, how long have you been in this village?"

Lan smiled.

"I came here with Xiaoyuan. We were much poorer back then than we are now."

"Well, it's been about seven years now."

Yes, it has been more than a year since Xiaoyuan passed away.

Kakuzu glanced at Lan, whose expression was complicated.

"I thought you died on that mission along with your husband and children."

"It seems you've been doing quite well since then."

Lan fell silent. Even after so many years, she still couldn't forget that escort mission.

I originally thought it would be a simple C-rank mission, which a Jonin and a Chunin could easily handle, and I could even take a family vacation along the way.

As a result, the client concealed mission information in order to reduce the reward, and during the escort, they clashed with Iwagakure ninjas, causing the mission difficulty to soar to A-rank.

Her husband and her infant child died during that mutated mission.

However, she was knocked into the river and was rescued by a caravan led by Kiyoshi Gen.

"You have to let go of the past."

Lan smiled somewhat reluctantly.

I'm very content with my life right now.

Even though she was back to a time when she had no family.

Neither of them spoke.

Looking at the village from all this time, it seems to be quite a suitable place to live.

Let's wait and see for now.

At that moment, the two of them arrived near Wanghaiqiu.
