Toji left the exchange house 11.5 million richer.
That money seemed like a lot, but the Ryo is practically based on the Japanese Yen at a rate of 10 yen to 1 Ryo.
That would be around $700,000.
Sure, it's still a lot of money for a civilian, but the arms and pharmaceutical industries have always been big money eaters, ninjas earn a lot of money, but they spend it just as fast.
Even so, this amount is not low at all, common missions have much smaller rewards. To receive that much in a mission, it must be at least Rank S, and you would still have to split the total value with the team and the village.
Being a bounty hunter is extremely lucrative, but at the same time extremely dangerous.
If it weren't for the fact that Kakuzu is a trickster with "5 lives", he would have been in a ditch a long time ago.
In any case, Toji had managed to secure a good initial fund, but as soon as he received the money, Toji was stunned.
He didn't seem to have much use for it?
I mean, what should he buy? Clothes, accessories? He didn't care about that.
Food and drink? He'd have to eat like an Akimichi at a barbecue for a month to manage that, and besides, he didn't care that much about food anyway, the same went for drink.
Using money on women? Please, he's handsome enough to make women pay instead of paying for it.
Weapons? He already has Shakukonto, any other weapon forged from elsewhere doesn't even come close. Besides, even if he needs weapons, he can ask his other self.
Toji stopped in the middle of the street for a moment, a black bag full of money in his hand.
For a moment, he understood Toji from Jujutsu, he spent all his money on gambling not just because he was a gambling addict, which he was, but because he truly had nothing else he wanted to spend that money on.
Jugo also never cared much about money, most of the money earned in the village went back to the village itself, whether for infrastructure, paying ninjas, or supporting Orochimaru's research.
Besides the fact that the food trade had more and more surplus money, Jugo made Guren spend as much as possible to improve the village, but even so, the money just kept growing.
Jugo resorted to buying metals such as iron for weapons and gold as a form of hard currency.
Toji sighed, he looked around and not far away he saw a betting house.
Scratching his chin, his feet were already moving before he could even stop them.
Two hours later, Toji came out with two bags instead of one, both crammed with money.
Behind him, a group of beaten mobs with weapons scattered everywhere.
Toji was truly speechless, his luck was far better than he expected. He started with 11.5 million and left with almost 200 million!
It got to the point where the betting house owner accused him of theft and called the security guards to attack him. Toji didn't kill them because he really had no interest in doing so right now, he just beat them up and made the betting house owner hand over the money. Even after leaving, his mind was still full of confusion.
He left carrying two heavy bags, his face blank.
Looking at the money in his hands, it seemed like he couldn't even be like the original Toji and "have fun" losing money.
Toji remained silent for a long moment, still trying to decide what to do with it. Should he just send it back to Otogakure? He didn't really need all of this.
But the next moment, Toji had an interesting idea. Excited, he returned to the exchange bureau, and, under the manager's surprised gaze, he asked...
-How do I put up a reward?- Toji asked curiously.
The old man with a sparse beard and round glasses, but with short white hair carefully combed back, looked at Toji with evident strangeness.
This was the first time a mercenary had returned and asked to place a bounty on someone.
Seeing Toji's empty eyes, the man swallowed hard and quickly explained, -You only need to provide the target's information. The reward money must be paid in full. If you change your mind later, you can hand over the issued receipt to claim the reward, but the amount returned will only be 90% of the original value. Furthermore, you can increase the reward at any time, or if there's already a bounty on that person, you can reach an agreement with the original bounty issuer to merge them or keep them separate. Most choose to keep them separate because they don't have to divide the body.
Toji seemed thoughtful and nodded, placing the 200 million in front of the man and speaking. - I want to put 100 million on the head of Shimura Danzo, leader of Konoha's Root organization, and another 100 million on the head of the Fourth Raikage of Kumogakure.
The man was silent for a moment, Toji stared back at him, the air in the room seemed to grow strange for a moment.
-What?- the man finally asked, thinking he must have misheard.
Toji frowned and repeated, his eyes growing increasingly dangerous, the man realized Toji wasn't joking.
The bounty on Danzo was simply because he found it interesting and wondered if someone could kill him for that reward, perhaps Kakuzu would invade Konoha.
As for the Fourth Raikage? He just wanted to disgust the man, he hadn't forgotten that Ay had wanted to attack Otogakure before.
Toji left the exchange office half an hour later, poor, but feeling particularly satisfied.
Strangely, Toji felt his criminal potion being slightly digested, it was a small amount, but it was there.
This made him thoughtful, should he offer bounties to some Daimyo next time? That would probably be very interesting.
Smiling, even though he was poor again, Toji felt much better.
