Chapter 401 Akatsuki’s plan!
Chapter 396: Akatsuki’s plan!
In an unknown dark space, a hideous golem lay quietly on the ground, its hands shackled with its fingers spread out, and on the thumb, middle finger, and little finger of its right hand stood three colorful human figures.
They are Nagato, Konan, and once again, Black Zetsu.
The three of them stood quietly on the stone pillar, waiting for others to arrive.
"hoop!"
Suddenly, the golem's right index finger gleamed, and a figure appeared on it. Its blood-red eyes glanced around, "Hey, a newcomer? Didn't we say last time that newcomers have to undergo an assessment before they can wear the ring? Chief..."
"You don't have to be so sarcastic, Yao. The person you recommended last time wasn't very strong to begin with. Xuanwu is special. Don't doubt the leader's decision."
"Tsk, is it special?" After hearing what Xiaonan said, Yao curled his lips and looked at Black Zetsu meaningfully.
Of course, only Black Zetsu knows the true meaning of the Dazzling God.
At this time, another finger representing Kakuzu also lit up, "Huh? Newcomer? I see." Obviously, Kakuzu also knew the purpose of this call, but he was only interested in making money. As for teammates, Umekawa was enough at the moment.
"Where is Meichuan? Why didn't he come?" Seeing that only one of the usually inseparable immortal duo came this time, Xiaonan frowned.
"You guys notified me too hastily. That guy is still in the middle of the sacrificial ceremony, and it's only just begun. It's hard to get away. Also, hurry up, I have a bounty to collect."
"Well, wait a little longer. Xuanwu's matter is related to our Akatsuki's next major plan. If you can stop, please do so. We don't have many opportunities, so we have to seize them!"
"Then as soon as possible."
After saying that, Kakuzu stood on his finger and closed his eyes to rest.
Seeing this, Yao was about to laugh when he felt a cold gaze coming from Nagato, which reminded him of some not-so-good memories.
Immediately, he suppressed his Uchiha arrogance and waited quietly for the remaining people.
"call!"
"leader!"
The one who came this time was a strong man from a small ninja village. With such a background, he could still join the Akatsuki organization that only recruits elites. Naturally, he has his own unique characteristics.
This guy is called Yoshikage, the holder of the Kekkei Genkai: Steel Release. He was rescued by Nagato and Konan during a mission. At that time, he was lying on the ground dying, surrounded by corpses.
Nagato saved him, so he worked for Nagato. He can be said to be the purest ninja in the current Akatsuki organization, just like his bloodline limit.
He also knew that Nagato didn't save him out of kindness, he saved him only because of his strength.
But Yoshikage didn't care. He no longer had the spiritual support to live in this world. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him, who possessed the power of Steel Release, to be defeated so easily by a group of third-rate ninjas.
And the appearance of Nagato just gave him a reason to fulfill her promise.
When Ji Ying arrived, he didn't ask anything and just waited quietly.
Suddenly, another finger lit up, and a figure wearing an open Xiao robe appeared on it. After coming, he first looked at them for a while with a look that made Yao and Jiying disgusted.
Afterwards, he turned his head to look at Nagato, but this time, he didn't dare to look at Nagato with that look. After all, he knew how powerful those eyes were, especially after he knew that those eyes could create life!
That is not creating life in biology, but almost creating it out of thin air!
Therefore, in the Akatsuki organization, he is the person who respects Nagato the most besides Yoshikage, as he possesses power similar to that of the Creator.
"Bei Liuhu! If you dare to look at me like that again, I'll dig out your eyes!" Yao, who was standing aside, saw Bei Liuhu appear and look at him with that look again, and immediately stared at him fiercely.
Although Ji Ying also hated this kind of look, he was a calm and Buddhist person and would not dwell on such things, but Yao was different.
The Uchiha people are famous for their arrogance, but the Uchiha who has opened his eyes is no longer arrogant, but almost insane. Naturally, he cannot tolerate this.
But Hiruko is not someone to be trifled with. Since joining the Akatsuki organization, his research has made great progress. At the same time, whether it is a coincidence or something else, his Kisara technique has also made great progress.
Although he is still studying the principles behind it and doesn't dare to use it indiscriminately, at least he can train a few assassins for himself. And currently, only Nagato in the Akatsuki organization knows where his laboratory is. Well, now we have to add Xuanwu.
But this certainly does not include Yao, therefore, Beiliu Hu has nothing to fear!
"Really? That's perfect. Your Sharingan should be a very good substitute. I'd be happy to accept it." As he said that, Hiruhu narrowed his eyes.
"Really? Then do you want to try it? You coward hiding in the lab."
"Alright, behave yourself, the meeting is about to start!"
"Tsk~" x2
The two people who were arguing with each other stopped arguing at Nagato's cold shout. What followed was a long wait. After all, Akatsuki itself was not a strict organization, and there were many new members joining now.
It wasn't long before the remaining two members were in place.
Nagato glanced at the people with different expressions and said calmly, "This time, I have two main things to say. One is to introduce our new member, Jue."
"From now on, he will be responsible for our organization's intelligence. I won't go into details, but he will definitely prove his ability. That's settled. Now let's talk about the second thing."
Nagato rarely showed his dominance and directly decided that Zetsu would join the Akatsuki organization. Others had no objection. After all, Nagato was the nominal leader and he had to have this right.
After saying this, Nagato paused, and seeing that no one objected, he continued to talk about his plan.
"The ninja world is now in chaos. Everyone's attention is focused on Konoha, who is fighting against the three nations on their own. This is a great opportunity for us to catch up with the five nations!"
"Wait, Chief, catch up with the five major countries? You are kidding, right? Isn't that a gimmick you use to attract people?" Looking at the cold and serious Nagato, another strong man in the Akatsuki organization couldn't help but speak.
To be honest, he was just a relatively strong rebel ninja who only wanted to find a powerful organization to protect him and make a living. He had never thought about fighting against the five major countries.
When he joined Akatsuki, it was because their goals were too big, such as changing the ninja world. Come on, we are all adults, be rational. This slogan that sounded fake instantly attracted him.
Therefore, with this idea in mind, he thought Nagato's slogan was just a slogan, just for show. He had just joined the Akatsuki organization, but now, he found that they seemed to be serious about it.
Thinking about it, he turned his head and looked around. Others seemed to have no opinions, and some were even thinking about strategies.
(／‵口′)／~╧╧!
At this moment, as if in response, Kakuzu also spoke up to object, "No! I have a mission to complete, and that money is easier to get."
"Wait a minute, Kakuzu, are you sure? Those are the Five Great Nations! Are you really planning on going against them?"
"They are just the five great nations. They are not invincible. I once fought against the First Hokage. I know their strength better than you."
"Okay, Jade Girl, don't be so useless. Listen to the leader's plan first." Yao first stopped the strong man, that is, Jade Girl, from making trouble, and then turned his head to look at Nagato.
"You can ask us to help you deal with the Five Nations, but you have to come up with an effective plan, otherwise I won't do it. I know better than anyone else how powerful Konoha is, now that it has begun to reconcile with the Uchiha!"
Nagato looked at Yao's blood-red eyes staring at him, his expression unchanged, and continued, "Don't worry, I'll tell you the plan first. If you don't agree, then we don't have to proceed. What do you think?"
Hearing this, Yu Nu was the first to object, but the gazes from the surroundings made him shut up unnaturally. He already regretted joining this den of thieves and their previous meeting.
Even the most timid Jade Maiden had compromised, and naturally the others had no objections. They all looked at Nagato quietly, wanting to see what his plan was.
"My plan is very simple. I have the weapons shared by the five major nations - the tailed beasts!" Nagato ignored the shocked crowd and spoke to himself.
"The reason why the five great nations are able to surpass other ninja villages is not only because of their endless stream of geniuses, but more importantly, it is the tailed beasts that are their killing weapons! It is precisely because of the existence of the tailed beasts that they have the courage to constantly wage wars! They have destroyed countless people's homes!"
'Nagato.' Looking at Nagato's somewhat hysterical expression, a hint of worry flashed in Konan's eyes. Ever since he developed the ability of those eyes, Nagato's mentality has changed dramatically and become more and more extreme.
She was really worried that if this continued, Nagato would destroy himself.
However, she also knew that she couldn't interfere with Nagato's decision, so she could only practice hard and do her best to prevent Nagato from straying too far. This was the only thing she could do at the moment.
"Tailed beast?" Unlike Konan, after hearing Nagato's words, most of the other members turned their attention to Kakuzu.
After all, if the five major countries cannot be provoked now, the only tailed beast left alone seems to be Kakuzu’s former village - Takigakure.
"First of all, I've been away from the village for a long time, so I don't know what changes they've made."
"It doesn't matter. The relevant intelligence has already been found out. We just need to set a time to act."
Hearing this, everyone turned their attention to Zetsu again. They obviously didn't expect that this newcomer had such strong intelligence capabilities. The Jinchūriki's location in any village was an absolute secret.
As long as they can find it, it is awesome, no matter how long it takes. Now, they are beginning to have some expectations for this new member.
"Kakuzu, when can you arrange the time?" Nagato had only said half of his words when he found that the Jade Maiden's illusory body had disappeared!
"What happened? He lifted it himself? He can't be such a coward, right?"
"No, he's dead. Absolutely!"
"I understand!" Jue replied in his unique hoarse voice, then closed his eyes and began to communicate with the White Jue clone beside the Jade Girl.
"No way? This guy was killed just like that? Who do you think it could be?"
"It doesn't matter. Isn't it normal for small fish to die? No need to pay too much attention to it."
"Tsk, how boring, Kakuzu."
On the other side, at the place where the Jade Girl died, a White Zetsu clone controlled by Black Zetsu emerged from the ground. It looked at the figure lying beside the corpse and said, "You bastard."
“Puff!”
However, before White Zetsu could finish his words, he was shot in the head by a kunai subconsciously.
At this moment, the figure finally realized what was happening and turned around, his pretty face full of confusion. "What is this?"
"I'm not a thing, my name is."
“Puff!”
“Exactly the same?”
"Don't be nervous, I have no ill intentions" X3
“Puff!”
"I just want to talk to you." X2
“Puff!”
“That’s all”
Looking at the three identical corpses on the ground, the handsome young man gave up on killing them and instead held the kunai in his hand, while secretly preparing the chakra lines in his hand.
If there is any unusual movement from White Zetsu, solve it immediately!
"Don't be nervous, I'm just a messenger."
"Are you in cahoots with him?"
"Yes, but"
“Puff!”
"." Bai Zetsu silently appeared again from the side, looking speechlessly at the handsome young man who threw another kunai.
"Can you let me finish what I'm saying first?"
"ASAP."
"Tsk, we are an organization, but he's dead now, so he has no value. So, would you consider joining us? If you can kill him, it means you have the qualifications to join us, what do you think?"
"No need, don't bother me anymore. If you want to die, that's another story!" After saying that, the handsome young man was about to turn and leave, but the next moment, he stopped in his tracks, and at the same time, his whole body exuded a dangerous aura.
"What if joining us would allow you to better pursue eternal art? Wouldn't you consider that?"
"when!"
As soon as White Zetsu finished speaking, a kunai shot out like lightning and stuck itself next to his head!
"How do you know these things?" The handsome young man, no, the scorpion stared at Bai Jue with solemn eyes, trying to see something from his expression.
Unfortunately, this White Zetsu only possesses a basic intelligence. He can repeat Black Zetsu's words without any problem, but when it comes to things like fear, he lacks it, although he still has a pain sensory system.
"It's not difficult for our organization to learn these things. Join us, and we can provide you with more intelligence, so that you can get more artworks with the word 'three' written on them!"
Upon hearing this, Scorpion did not attack again, but narrowed his eyes and carefully considered White Zetsu's proposal. Finally, after weighing the pros and cons, he agreed.
He couldn't refuse. This organization knew almost all of his intelligence, but he knew nothing about it. He couldn't even deal with the unknown white creature in front of him.
Rather than living under their constant surveillance, it is better to compromise and fight for more rights, such as being released from surveillance.
In this way, under a certain will, although the process was different, Scorpion finally joined the Akatsuki organization.
This also indicates that a certain will of the ninja world has begun to become active due to some changes.
