Chapter 151 Chapter 151 Xiao Organization Begins Action
It is a rare sunny day in Rain Village at this moment.
A tall man stood in the tower, looking down at the endless stream of people with their children below. There was unconcealable tenderness in his eyes, and no one knew what he was thinking.
There was a gentle knock on the door...
A cold and beautiful woman with blue-purple hair opened the door and immediately locked her eyes with the red-haired figure standing in front of the window. The coldness on her face disappeared and she shook her head helplessly.
"Nagato, the personnel responsible for this mission have been assembled and are awaiting you."
Nagato finally came back to his senses and apologized, "I'm sorry, Konan, I made you worry again."
"This is what I should do." Footsteps slowly approached, and within a few breaths, Konan was beside Nagato. "But you, you've been seeing this scene for years, and you're not tired of it?"
How can you get tired of seeing such a peaceful scene?
Nagato didn't reply, but just looked down with Konan at the villagers who had simple and satisfied smiles on their faces.
"I wish Yahiko could see it too." Konan murmured.
A cold look flashed across Nagato's eyes. "It will be soon. Once we have transformed the entire ninja world into what the village looks like now, we will bring Yahiko back."
Xiaonan nodded, thinking back on the changes in the Rain Country over the past few years, and sighed, "Time flies..."
After saying this, he seemed relieved, his eyes filled with anticipation: "It's time for us to take the last step."
Unlike before when it was just out of emotion, he is willing to follow the wishes of Yahiko and Nagato, and is willing to devote his efforts and life to their ideals.
But now she is much more proactive.
It has nothing to do with emotion, they truly regard what they are doing as their lifelong dream.
She wanted the entire ninja world to smile as sincerely as the villagers.
For this, even if I have to invest everything...
Nagato also nodded in a firm response.
He jumped out of the tower cleanly and swiftly, stepped on the Gothic-style roofs unique to Rain Village, and with a few flashes, rushed towards the gathering place outside the village.
The swift and steady movements and the faintly revealed strong and tight muscle lines all reveal the strong inner strength of the person in front of him. From a distance, where is the cynical and unfit appearance of a few years ago?
Konan quietly looked at Nagato's back which disappeared in the blink of an eye, a tender and gentle smile appeared on her face, and the coldness in her body was completely washed away.
The rare gentle breeze from the Land of Rain blew past the figure in front of the window, instantly blowing away Konan's figure, turning it into white paper that scattered in the direction of the wind...
As his health gradually improved, Nagato slowly stepped out from behind the scenes in recent years. The change of leader did not cause much objection among the core members of the Akatsuki organization.
There is no other reason, strength determines everything.
The six Pain puppets under his command are almost invincible, and even if you manage to knock down a few of them, then congratulations, you will face the "fragile puppeteer" whose abilities will be combined and instantly return to the peak of his combat power...
Nagato had no intention of treating prisoners well and giving the enemy a chance to live.
In order to prevent the information about the changes within the Rain Village from being leaked, he always annihilated his enemies completely. If any member of the Akatsuki organization who knew some special information wanted to defect, he would absolutely crush them to ashes. Even if Nagato was extremely busy, he would personally do it, and would never give them any chance of escape...
The decisive and ruthless style has intimidated many troublemakers.
It is also because of this that in just a few years, the Rain Village was completely turned into an iron barrel.
All the spies sent by the five major countries were killed in the Hidden Rain Village. The shadows of the five major ninja villages, who were unaware of the truth, thought that it was the work of the demigod to consolidate his power and establish his authority over them.
Although they were angry, they were the ones who did it on the first day after all, so it was no wonder that the Rain Village did not give them face and did it on the fifteenth.
It's not worth it to fight against Hanzo of the Salamander, who can challenge four countries in a row when he goes crazy, just for a few spies.
The Rain Country actually developed quietly under the noses of the five major countries...
In the cave outside the Rain Village, nine people were standing in groups of three or four, waiting for Nagato to arrive.
Apart from those peripheral members of the Akatsuki organization who often travel around on missions and only wear the Red Cloud Badge, being able to obtain the Red Cloud Robe of the Akatsuki organization is already a recognition of the individual by the organization, and possesses at least the strength of an elite jonin, also known as the core reserve.
Those who have the strength of Kage and higher potential are the real core members of Akatsuki.
Kakuzu, Hidan, Hoshigaki Kisame, Biwa Juuzou, Konan, Sasori, Black and White Zetsu, and of course, there was also a 12-year-old Deidara who had just been tricked here, and the clone left behind by Obito...
Deidara is the only reservist to participate in the Tailed Beast Operation.
With his age and talent, it was only a matter of time before he became Kage-level or even stronger. In addition, with Obito's recommendation and guarantee, he was able to temporarily join the core members' mission as a reserve, which could be considered a promotion assessment.
These people are the most capable ninjas in Akatsuki. Of course, not all of them are good people in the moral sense.
After all, the Tianyan Chamber of Commerce is responsible for recruiting civilians, while the Akatsuki organization, ostensibly in order to better complete the Tianyan Chamber of Commerce's task of assigning orders, is actively recruiting wandering ninjas.
A ninja's profession is bound to involve more or less human lives, and no one dares to say they are truly clean...
Akatsuki didn't care what happened before, but after joining Akatsuki, with clear rules and regulations, most of these ninjas became obedient.
Well, those who are dishonest and dare to disobey orders have already joined the Pure Land family...
Nagato took action, highlighting a crisp and clear...
The Akatsuki organization supports the growth of these ninjas and protects them from being hunted by the five major countries. They only need to complete easy delivery tasks to get a lot of bounties, live well and easily, and exchange them for some Akatsuki-exclusive "props" to become stronger. Who would be so stubborn as to challenge the strict rules set by the Akatsuki organization?
As soon as Nagato arrived, he began to make arrangements for the next action.
"At present, the preliminary preparations between us and the Chamber of Commerce have been completed. The next step is to capture the most important tailed beast."
"News came from the Chamber of Commerce that the Seven-Tails has been captured. We don't have to worry about the most troublesome Two-Tails, Eight-Tails, and Nine-Tails in Konoha and Kumogakure. The Chamber of Commerce President has already left and informed us that the handover will be completed within a week."
"As for the remaining tailed beasts, we will capture them."
Nagato stood in front of the golem and gave his explanation, and the others at the scene perked up.
"The Three-Tailed and Five-Tailed beasts died in the Third War. It's been a long time since they were resurrected. The two major ninja villages are now searching for the whereabouts of the tailed beasts. The Chamber of Commerce has provided us with the specific coordinates. Konan and Afei will go there and try to recover them before the ninja villages find them."
"The Four-Tails and Six-Tails Jinchūriki, who are roaming outside the village as if they had betrayed their village, have their locations determined. Kisame, you and Juuzou both have water attributes, which naturally restrain the Four-Tails. Go capture the Four-Tails, and I will send Pain to contain the Six-Tails."
"As for the remaining Kakuzu, Hidan, Sasori, and Deidara, you go to the Sand Village to capture the One-Tail."
"Is the Sand Village that strong? Do we need four people to go together?" Even the youngest, Deidara, is now a solid elite jonin, and the other three are actually Kage-level...
Before the three of them could say anything, Deidara had already jumped up and down: "You don't trust me because I'm young? I can blow the entire Sand Village to the sky by myself! Just stare wide-eyed and wait to see my art!"
Nagato ignored Deidara's artistic speech. He glanced past the erratic Deidara and looked at Sasori before continuing his instructions: "Scorpion, you are originally from the Sand Village and are more familiar with the people and terrain within the village. You will lead the Sand Village operation this time."
"If something goes wrong with the other tailed beasts, we can start over, but the Outer Path Demon Statue must start sealing the tailed beasts with the One-Tail. So, I don't want any accidents to happen when capturing the One-Tail, and I don't want to see a situation where the other tailed beasts are all present but the One-Tail is still not captured."
"Quick victory, understand?"
Several years of cultural influence and mission experience have enabled Nagato to master the term "fire coverage" to perfection.
Upon hearing this, they looked at each other and agreed. Although Deidara was still indignant, he didn't say anything more.
But he had already made up his mind to go to the Sand Village and do something big.
"Then everyone, set off as soon as possible. Within a week, I hope to receive news that all the tailed beasts have been captured."
…
On the other side, Ali and Obito, who were supposed to head straight for the Hidden Cloud Village, had changed from a two-person group to a four-person group...
Madara and Izuna changed into their ordinary appearance as teenagers who could not be distinguished in a crowd. They each wore a red cloud badge and followed Ali and Obito to the capital of the Land of Lightning.
What comes into view is a prosperous scene, at least on the surface, a scene of singing and dancing, a life of luxury and extravagance...
The few of them asked as they walked, and finally found the Wagyu restaurant that Madara had eaten at. The original small shop had already opened several chain stores and was one of the best in the Land of Lightning.
"These nobles really know how to enjoy themselves..." Ali looked at the beef slices that were still jiggling on the plate, and for a moment he was afraid to pick up his chopsticks.
Is this being served on the table right after it’s been killed?
But are you serious about raw meat? Is this really edible?
While Ali was still staring at the jumping beef, Obito on the opposite side had already frowned and called the clerk over.
The clerk was clearly well-versed in this sort of thing, enthusiastically explaining the benefits of raw beef to them, emphasizing the taste of each cut and the regions where the meat on their table was selected. He even touched on the cattle's breeding, feed, and medical examinations...
Although the talk was very eloquent, Ali couldn't eat it at all.
Obito was skeptical, so he cut a little bit of the dipping sauce under the clerk's guidance and put it into his mouth tentatively. The fresh and juicy taste danced between his lips and teeth, giving him a novel experience and toughness, with a hint of sweetness. It was unexpectedly delicious.
Being able to do this for such a long time and still making things bigger and bigger means he must have some skills.
Obito's eyes lit up, and he gradually relaxed his movements. Seeing this, Izuna also raised her eyebrows and tried...
Ninjas have lived through many hardships, so they'd eat raw meat, even insects alive, for all they'd expect. Their tolerance level is far higher than Ali's, not to mention that this meat suits their taste buds...
Ali could only smile dryly and ask the waiter to hurry up and serve the other cooked food.
Mr. Ban sat cross-legged at the table with a calm demeanor. His immature and dull facial features made his face, which originally had no memorable features, have a unique charm.
He didn't move his chopsticks. As if he sensed something, he suddenly looked up at the crowded hall and locked his eyes on a group of two men and one woman.
The three of them seemed to have noticed something and looked in their direction.
Madara chuckled softly, "This trip wasn't in vain."
Ali looked up in confusion, followed Madara's gaze, and saw the figure that he had thought he would only see in the Hidden Cloud Village...
This is... the Two-Tails Jinchuriki, by the wooden man?
