The battle between the two did not last long as the battle was over in less than one minute.

This also made Kakuzu is already lying in the pit when the three kids arrived.

Looking at the scene in front of her, Hasu tilted her head, "Isn't he the expert who fought against Shōdaime-sama? Why did he fall so quickly?"

Kiri's lips twitched as she said, "Shouldn't you have known that that he is bragging as soon as you hear it?"

Kakuzu became a little angry when he heard this, 'How did this brat talk like that? Am I the kind of guy who likes to brag?'

Kabuto then said in a straight-forward manner, "Just by looking at the surrounding situation, you can find out that he is definitely very powerful. If he is just an ordinary Shinobi, sensei can defeat him without making such a big commotion!"

After saying that, Kabuto looked towards Sōseki with a look of worship, "Of course the battle will still end so quickly, after all, sensei is far stronger than him!"

Sōseki warned with a serious expression, "Don't underestimate any enemy. If I hadn't attacked with all my strength, I might have been defeated by him by now!"

The three kids nodded earnestly, while Kakuzu, who is in the hole, was directly puzzled 'Am I really that powerful?'

"By the way, sensei." Hasu asked eagerly, "Does this guy have a bounty on him? Should we exchange his corpse for the bounty?"

Kakuzu was secretly relieved when he heard this, 'As long as they don't destroy my body, I can get away easily.'

But just as he was thinking like this, he suddenly realized that there were some seals added onto his body.

Then, he heard Sōseki, who is standing beside him, said, "Corpse? He's not dead!"

Kakuzu was shocked in his heart, 'This bastard knew that I was "faking" death?'

"This old senior, aren't you going to stand up from the ground?"

At this point, Kakuzu knew that there is no point in pretending to be dead anymore.

Kakuzu opened his eyes and stood up with a gloomy expression.

The three kids looked at the scene in front of them in surprise, 'It is as sensei said, we can't be careless at any time.'

"It seems that the journey of this old man is about to end here!"

Sōseki smiled and said, "Don't worry, old senior, I didn't say I want to kill you now!"

"Then what do you want?"

"From the ability you just showed, if I'm not mistaken..." Sōseki pondered and said, " You should be the Takigakure's Missing-nin, Kakuzu, who defected after the failed assassination of Shōdaime-sama, right?"

Before Kakuzu could speak, the three kids were already shocked again.

"He really tried to assassinate Shōdaime-sama!"

"For this guy to still live well even after trying to assassinate Shōdaime-sama, it seems that Shōdaime-sama is not as powerful as the legend said!"

Although Senju Hashirama criticize by these three kids, Kakuzu did not intend to explain anything for him, but looked straight at Sōseki, "So, what are you going to do with me?"

Sōseki rubbed his smooth chin and said, "No matter how it is, you are Takigakure's Missing-nin, and I don't want to overstep my authority. When I send these three back to Konoha, I will take you to Takigakure!"

Kakuzu's spirit was refreshed and he secretly delighted, 'Escaping from the hands of those losers is much easier than escaping under the eyes of this monster!'

Sōseki is also secretly delighted, 'I was just worried that I can't find an excuse to contact Takigakure, but this guy ran straight into the door, giving me peace of mind!"

…

After dealing with the group of wandering Shinobi, they took money from the group of wandering Shinobi and handed them over to the old couple who suffered as compensation, and then Sōseki and his group continued on their way back.

Perhaps this incident had a greater impact in the bounty hunter circle. In the next few days, no rats dared to follow them anymore.

After returning to Konoha and telling the three kids to move on their own, Sōseki escorted Kakuzu to the direction of Hokage Tower.

Along the way, the villagers greeted him warmly.

"Sōseki is back!"

"Sōseki-sama won't go out again when he comes back this time, right?"

"Eh? Who is the person following behind Sōseki-sama?"

"From his appearance, I can see that he is definitely a bad guy with just a glance!"

Kakuzu's expression is very gloomy at this moment. He was originally a person who would kill whenever something went wrong, so being surrounded by so many people like a monkey on the show, the flames of anger in his eyes were about to burst out.

After hearing the news, Shizune and the others stopped in front of Sōseki.

"Sōseki, your skin is getting a lot drier!"

"It seems that the weather in Sunagakure is very bad!"

The attention of two girls is on Sōseki, while Asuma and the others are looking at the sealed Kakuzu curiously.

"This guy must not be a simple person. Even his eyes give me an invisible oppression!"

"Indeed, this guy's aura is not something that ordinary people can have!"

"If it wasn't for the fact that we have returned from the battlefield, maybe it was really possible to be frightened by his eyes!"

After Sōseki comforted Kurenai and Shizune, he explained, "It's not surprising that he has such an aura. After all, he is the Takigakure's Missing-nin who survived after trying to assassinate Shōdaime-sama more than 40 years ago!"

When the voice fell, everyone was in disbelief.

"What? He fought Shōdaime-sama?"

"To be able to survive after trying to assassinate Shōdaime-sama, I didn't expect him to be such an expert!"

When everyone looked at him with shocked gaze, Kakuzu had an inexplicable feeling of discomfort.

The battle with Senju Hashirama was indeed his highlight moment. He didn't say it personally, but he did feel a little smug in his heart.

However, these two days, these bastards have been shocked one after another by this, making him a little ashamed, 'Is it a weird thing that I can escape from Senju Hashirama?'

They then walked into the Hokage Tower unimpeded.

Entering the Hokage's Office, Minato stood up excitedly.

"Sōseki, you are finally back... Huh? This is?"

After Sōseki finished explaining Kakuzu's identity and background, Minato also had the same reaction as everyone before.

"Huh? He was able to escape from Shōdaime-sama?"

This time, Kakuzu finally could not bear the "humiliation", "Enough! Is it interesting to arrange the old man like this?"

Minato is an honest person after all, so he was a little sorry after hearing this, "Huh? Did I say something wrong?"

Seeing this, blue veins pop out from Kakuzu's forehead, but he can't vent his anger, so he can only turn his head to the side.

Sōseki ignored him and continued to explain, "Well, Takigakure sent their Shinobi to support us during the war after all, so now that we have caught the Missing-nin they want, it is reasonable that we handed him back to them."

Minato nodded in approval and said, "You're right, Takigakure should indeed the one who will take care of him. However, it's better to leave things like returning the Missing-nin to someone else to do it. You've been running around for so long, so it's time to take a break."

"Let me do it!" Sōseki shook his head slightly, "He is very strong, and he can surpass most of the Jōnin even with Taijutsu alone, so even if I seal his chakra, it is not very safe!"

"And, in the end, he is an old Shinobi who has survived since the Warring States Period. Who knows if he has any hidden abilities, so I really don't feel relieved to let others escort him!"

"Is that so?" Minato pondered for a moment, then sighed and patted Sōseki's shoulder, "Then I can only trouble you to move again!"
