When he learned that there was no familiar face in Putian's description, Hinata breathed a sigh of relief.
The official members recruited by the Akatsuki organization are at least jounin in strength, and those familiar figures in the future are at least elite jounin in strength. Facing ninjas of this level, he will inevitably reveal his considerable strength.
The Chamber of Commerce can hire powerful ninjas, but there is an upper limit to how powerful they can be. It is impossible to have characters at the level of Sannin and Five Shadows, otherwise it would be too doubtful about the specific role of the Chamber of Commerce.
The ninjas who attacked Putian outside of his memory should be members of the current Akatsuki organization's outfield.
The members of the Akatsuki organization are not static. In addition to the core members, there are also outside members who are undergoing assessment. Even if these members are not strong enough and die in the bounty mission, the Akatsuki organization will not pursue them.
After all, the purpose of the Akatsuki organization now is to accumulate strength and money to prepare for future wars.
It is precisely based on this that Hinata Zang plans to help, otherwise he will have to start weighing the pros and cons due to his character.
After saying a few words about Putian, Hyugazo used the transformation technique to transform into the appearance of Putian's guard, followed Putian to carry out a series of business activities, and entered the capital of the Land of Fire.
In the capital of the Fire Country, no bounty hunter dares to kill people openly. The capital where the daimyo is located represents the face of the Fire Country and Konoha, unless they completely break up with Konoha.
Following several meetings with Putian, Hyugazo was able to understand the recent development of the organization.
Reports on paper are always not as accurate as they come now. The recent actions of the Chamber of Commerce also let Hinata know the reason why the Chamber of Commerce and Putian were targeted.
Reaching out to the chambers of commerce in other big countries has touched the interests of foreign nobles and chambers of commerce.
No wonder they paid such a high reward, a total of 50 million.
Of course, this may be related to the failure of the previous waves of bounty ninjas. No matter how bad Putian is, he still has the strength of an elite chuunin and is blessed by natural chakra.
However, after night fell, everything changed.
As the largest city in the Land of Fire, there is a black market on the outskirts to meet the needs of the nobles. Bounty hunters are also active here, but they follow the unspoken rules not to affect the daimyo.
The daimyo has twelve elite ninjas who can attract the Konoha Ninja Village at any time.
As the caravan team approached the dense forest, Hinata Zang felt two relatively large chakras approaching here, so he stretched out his hand towards the team behind him, and the team immediately stopped.
This team of less than ten people is all protected by Hyuga Zang. Only in this way can we avoid the leakage of information tonight.
Not long after, the leaves rustled on both sides of the road, and two figures fell in front of the team.
They were wearing black robes with red clouds and holding large swords more than one meter long in their hands. Their burly bodies looked quite imposing. Hinata looked at the two of them with slightly squinted eyes.
He had never seen the faces of these two people, but judging from their chakra, they were at least jounin level, and they were rebel ninjas from Kirigakure.
As for why it was easy to know that he was a Kirigakure traitor.
Firstly, it was the strong fishy smell on their bodies, and secondly, it was the forehead protectors on their foreheads.
In the ninja world, even rebellious ninjas always wear forehead protectors, as if they are afraid that they will not know that they are rebellious ninjas in that ninja village. Even members of the Akatsuki organization are like this. It is very difficult not to recognize the robes with red clouds on the black background.
Seemingly because they had experienced being deceived by a substitute, the two members of the Akatsuki organization did not attack immediately, but blocked the team one after another.
One of the taller Mist Ninja stared at Putian for a long time and said in a faint tone: "You can't escape this time. I didn't expect that this little wealthy businessman is also a ninja."
Putian remained silent. He had escaped from death in embarrassment before, but this time, the situation was completely opposite.
Looking at the members of the Akatsuki organization in front of him, Hyuga Zang said with a smile: "Who hired you? We can pay double the price for lives. This kind of business is not a loss, right?"
The two Akatsuki organization ninjas looked at each other and said with a ferocious smile: "It's too late. We have professional ethics and will never change employers midway... So will you die obediently?"
Hinata touched his chin and said with doubts: "Do rebels also have ethics? Why didn't I know that before?"
The ninjas of the Akatsuki organization were livid, and they were extremely angry when their sore feet were touched.
However, they seemed to sense that Hinata was hiding a lot of chakra, so they asked with cold faces: "Who are you, the pheasant ninja from there?"
Hinagazou smiled and said: "I am just like you, a bounty ninja, and I took over the task of protecting this gentleman. Since you are unwilling to defect in battle, all the bounty money belongs to me."
Before he finished speaking, Hinata Zang noticed that a layer of fog gradually filled the surrounding woods.
"Is it Kirigakure's killing technique?" Hinata secretly asked, while opening his Byakugan.
Soon, the fog enveloped the entire forest. The guards guarding Putian picked up their weapons and tried to use wind escape ninjutsu to disperse it, but found that it was of little use.
It takes a lot of effort to dispel the Kirigakure killing technique performed by a jounin-level ninja, even if he is also a jounin.
In the fog, the two people moved silently with the help of the environment.
And all this was seen by Hinata Zou. For him, the fog was not of much use. Even without opening his Byakugan, he could still detect the two of them through perception.
With a flash of his body, Hinata disappeared on the spot. Before the Kirigakure rebel could strike, Kunai blocked the sword's slash.
Hyugazo pulled out the saber of the guard beside him and slashed directly at the waist of the guard in front of him. Before he was about to hit, another member of the Akatsuki organization formed a seal with his hands and shouted: "Water escape, water prison technique!"
In an instant, a huge water mass emerged from the puddles on the ground, covering Hinata Zou and the traitorous ninja.
Hinata escaped from the Water Prison Technique, and members of the Akatsuki organization successfully rescued their companions. They stood side by side and looked solemnly at Hinata's location.
To be able to defeat one of them so easily, the opponent's strength has reached the level of a Jonin.
And this is just a physical technique. The opponent has never used ninjutsu before. With such abundant chakra, the power of using ninjutsu is unknown.
For a moment, they already had the intention of retreat in their hearts.
The penalty for failing the mission is heavy, but it's better than losing your life.
However, Hinata Zang has no intention of letting them go. If they come back next time, Putian and the Chamber of Commerce will be in danger, and he cannot stay here all the time.
In addition, seeing these two people, he thought of another thing. Although these two people were strong, they were not too strong, and they were only at the level of ordinary jounin.
It's not that Kisame is invincible, or that Kisame, who has lost his Samehada muscles, has fallen to the level of an ordinary jounin, or is unwilling to kill his former colleagues.
At this moment, Hinata Zang turned his head and looked into the distance, suddenly frowning.
He sensed a huge chakra coming from the distance. The amount of chakra of that person was several times that of the two people in front of him. Is there really a formal member of the Akatsuki organization?
