Chapter 238 Test each other (for subscription)
In order to reach Annihilation before Akatsuki evacuates from Kirigakure,
In just three days, the coalition forces with more than 40,000 ninjas have assembled, and they are swaying towards the country of water.
Along the way, the small team headed by Terumi Mei showed affection to Konoha frequently,
There is no doubt that the path they chose was the Fire Nation.
The establishment of Kirigakure is based on the foundation of ninja villages in other countries. It seems to gather different ninja families in imitation, so the village is not actually united.
In terms of overall national strength, Kirigakure used to have many blood successor families and the existence of the Seven Ninja Swords, which can definitely be regarded as the top three of the five major countries.
But in terms of cohesion, Kirigakure is definitely the worst of the Big Five.
Unlike Konoha Village and Iwagakure, which were built with ideas, with the will of fire and the will of stone,
It's not like one family dominates, and the Yeyue clan alone chooses the leader of Raikage, overwhelming the Cloud Shinobi Village of all ethnic groups in the village,
Even Sunagakure, which has the lowest comprehensive national strength, is thicker than Kirigakure in terms of cohesion.
The various ethnic groups in the Land of Water established Kirigakure entirely under the pressure of the situation, and its internal disputes prompted even high-level personnel to abandon people from the same village who were not familiar with them when the situation was not good.
For example, when the Seven Ninja Swords face Might Dai, they fight on their own and look down on each other.
When the situation turned sharply down, they didn't even look at their injured companions, and ran away separately.
There are many branches in this village, and the degree of unity among them is not enough at all. The disputes between the various families are not much worse than those in the Sengoku period, but they will be a little more cohesive when dealing with foreign enemies.
Therefore, regarding the choice of abandoning Kirigakure, Terumi Mei and others actually did not have so many heavy thoughts. A good bird chooses a tree to live in, and a good official chooses a master.
As for why they chose the Land of Fire and Konoha Village, that was entirely the result of team discussions.
Why choose the weaker one when you can choose the strongest one?
With the information dug up from within the Akatsuki organization, they sold Konoha a favor, and a large number of people were imprisoned in Konoha to work, so why not take this opportunity to go directly to defect.
There is no permanent enemy in this world, it depends on whether the thinking and standing are consistent.
As a country that once almost dominated the entire ninja world, Konoha has never faced any force in the ninja world one-on-one since the establishment of the village. Arm wrestling.
After this trip, Terumi Mei and others collected a lot of information after breaking away from the news defense line of the country of water, such as the news of Hyuga's escape from Konoha.
The three major clans in Konohajian Village, Uchiha and Hyuga have all disappeared, and there is no trace of the remaining Senju. Although its level of combat power is not as good as that of the strongest village in the past,
But it is precisely for this reason that Konoha has a high probability of accepting them.
After surviving the hell-like catastrophe of blood mist, they longed to live in the sun and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere peacefully.
The radiance of Konoha is so strong, if they can flow into it, of course they are willing.
As for why he didn't speak immediately, but chose to hide it,
It's just for the sake of not being inferior to other forces in the next battle against the Akatsuki organization, and being driven as cannon fodder.
And just as the ninja coalition team was heading towards the country of water on one giant ship after another,
Inside Kirigakure, members of the Akatsuki organization rarely gather,
They were openly and aboveboard in the meeting room in the Mizukage office building, holding a meeting belonging to Akatsuki.
"Those traitors have been wiped out, but Master Yuan and those people have fled the country of water. Presumably...the news about this side has already been passed on."
While flipping through the ledger, Kakuzu said blankly, "Jeez, should you explain your dereliction of duty?"
"Well, please forgive me."
As the end of the conference table, Fourth Mizukage, who is the owner of the village, heard White Zetsu's unique voice that seemed to be superimposed by two voices, "There are so many people in this village, how can I keep an eye on them?" .”
His tone was not half-confessed or flustered, but very relaxed, even a little mischievous, like a child of a few years old, who didn't know why he was afraid.
"So are we going to run away now?"
On the other side, Deidara folded his arms, "I heard that they held a meeting with the Five Kages and wanted to attack us."
"Now that our location has been exposed, I'm afraid the army has already crossed the sea by boat and is heading this way."
Although this is said, in fact, everyone present did not pay too much attention to the possible incoming ninja coalition forces.
They don't attach much importance to the territory of Kirigakure as Ninja Army thinks,
When they used Rain Shinobi Village as their base, they rarely gathered together, and most of the time they were scattered around the world, so there is no sense of belonging or reluctance to abandon this village.
"I suggest staying out of the way for now."
A cold, emotionless voice sounded from the mouth of the black-haired and black-eyed man,
Uchiha Itachi didn't look at other people, but stared directly at the red-haired man on the main seat, "We don't need to face them head-on, as long as we evacuate, so that they can't find the target of the crusade, they will naturally disband."
"It's impossible for the five shadows to stay together forever, and when these people disperse and return to their villages, we can strike again."
"Our only targets are Tailed Beasts and Jinchūriki, aren't we?"
"Indeed, there is no need to face people from the five major countries."
Konan, who was sitting next to Nagato, nodded in agreement with Uchiha Itachi's proposal.
"But we're running out of time."
No longer showing the identity of Payne, Nagato sat on the throne and directly denied this decision.
At this time, he was no longer as thin as a bone like before. His muscles were full and powerful, as if he had been infused with infinite vitality.
"This time the ninja army is coming, and there is a high probability that they will bring the Jinchūriki they have mastered. This is our great opportunity!"
Nagato stood up and looked around the crowd, "Hyuga Ryosuke has led the Hyuga clan out of Konoha, they have accumulated enough power and are rising at an extremely fast speed."
"Other forces in the ninja world may not know how powerful Hyuga is. After all, they have been hiding under the light of Konoha before, but we are very clear, aren't we?"
"That guy...but he defeated me dignifiedly! He might even have some power left!"
"If they really free up their hands, maybe we won't have the chance to collect Qitailed beasts at all. We need to control a more powerful force as soon as possible to deter the entire ninja world and bring real peace to this world!"
His eyes were full of murderous intent, as if if anyone present objected, he would kill immediately.
Sitting beside him, Konan's gaze was very complicated, and he spoke several times, but in the end he did not refute.
"Follow the previous plan. If the ninja army really strikes, I will try to disperse the cohesion of the ninja army."
Seeing that no one spoke, Nagato was very satisfied, "And when the ninja army is scattered, you should take the opportunity to attack the Jinchūriki in the ninja army and capture them as soon as possible."
"The victory or defeat of this battle is not important to us. The important thing is the Tailed Beast and the Jinchūriki. Go there and don't want to fight!"
"But...the news that we are going to attack Ninja Village may have been leaked."
Konan hesitated for a moment, "With countries taking precautions, Nagato, why don't you act alone?"
"In today's ninja world, except for Hyuga Ryosuke who can stop me, who is my one-sided enemy?"
Nagato looked condescendingly at Konan who was sitting next to him, "It's just a ninja coalition, I can enter as I want, and leave as I want."
"If I wasn't afraid that those people would protect Jinchūriki and hide them, I could crush them all by myself!"
The arrogance in the words was undisguised. A defeat made him fall from the altar, but it also aroused his heart to rise up.
He has found a way to solve the lack of vitality in the body, unable to control Rinnegan, and made up for his own shortcomings. Except for that Hyuga Ryosuke, Nagato now has absolute confidence to face everything.
In other words... from the very beginning, he was never afraid of any force in the ninja world,
It's just limited to Rinnegan's consumption of himself, so he can't fight for a long time, so he has been hiding and accumulating strength.
But now that this problem has been resolved, what if the five great powers unite?
Sometimes Nagato felt that if he could realize this earlier, he might not need to use the power of the tail beast at all, but he could use the power of Rinnegan to deter the ninja world and calm down all the wars.
But it's too late now, he can't figure out where the upper limit of Hyuga Ryosuke's combat power is.
Even if he made up for his own shortcomings, Nagato also felt that he should collect Qitailed Beasts to improve his combat power, so that he could have the ultimate power to suppress the world.
A pre-war meeting is extremely simple, without the cumbersomeness shown during the talks between the five major powers, and there is no any confrontation.
Six Paths Payne's puppet was damaged, and when Nagato was forced to walk from behind the scenes to the front of the stage, he had already told every member of the Akatsuki organization with absolute power how to write the word obedient.
"A Fei, you stay."
And just when everyone was about to go out, Nagato suddenly opened his mouth and stopped Uchiha Obito's pseudonym A Fei.
Ah Fei didn't refuse, and returned to his seat with a smile on his face.
Although the others were surprised, they didn't ask too much.
And Konan didn't leave, and continued to sit in his seat, and Nagato didn't call her away either.
Soon, there were only three of them left in the meeting room.
"Why... is there any task for me?"
When the others left, there was no need for Uchiha Obito to hide. An indifferent voice sounded from under the mask, full of arrogance.
What he is playing now is his ancestor Uchiha Madara.
Nagato didn't speak, first glanced at Konan next to him, then slowly got up and came to Obito's side.
"I do have a task to ask Senior."
"However... Although you were the top of the previous era, it seems that you and I have never had a formal contest."
The moment the voice fell, he raised his palm abruptly.
A powerful suction emerges from Nagato's body, trying to absorb the Uzumaki who is sitting on that seat,
But after a while, the masked man just stood up flatly, folded his hands on his chest, and stared at him coldly with his scarlet eyeballs, unaffected by Universal Pull.
And Konan had already retreated to the door of the conference room, staring at the back of the masked man.
"After regaining your vitality, you seem to be a lot more arrogant, Nagato."
A disdainful voice came from under the mask, Obito didn't even look at Konan behind him, "Don't forget, I was the one who saved you from Ryosuke."
"Don't think that once you regain your vitality, you can rely on those eyes to be invincible."
"To me, you are just a little guy."
Slowly withdrawing his palm, Nagato was not surprised that the masked man ignored the Universal Pull's suction, "I just want to test the level of seniors, after all, the things I want to ask seniors are not so easy to complete. "
But before he could speak, Obito guessed his plan first, "You want me to destroy Iwagakure for you, and disperse the cohesion of the ninja army?"
The other members of the organization only knew that there was an attack on the ninja village, but they didn't know which ninja village it was.
The other members do not include myself and Jue.
"Other than me in the Akatsuki organization, only seniors have this strength."
Nagato Kaidō, "Although I look down on those ninja coalition forces, after all, there must be no mistakes in our plan."
"In order for the plan to proceed smoothly, I need more conditions to prevent the ninja army from fighting us wholeheartedly."
After a pause, he explained, "The news of Iwagakure's destruction has reached the Ninja Army, and Onogi has a high possibility of leaving the team. This will not only disperse the troops, but also give us a greater chance to capture Four Tails."
"And even if Iwagakure sees through our thoughts and Onogi resists not to leave, his team will be like a hard thorn, stuck in the ninja army, and their morale will be chaotic."
Both ends are blocked. Although Nagato once considered himself a god, he has lost a game after all, so he can't help but be a little cautious in his arrogance, so as not to capsize in the gutter like last time.
"Really……"
After quietly listening to Nagato's explanation, Uchiha Obito smiled sarcastically, "Then why can't you go to Iwagakure and let me face this mighty ninja army?"
Suddenly, his figure disappeared in place, and when he reappeared, he was next to Nagato, almost body to body.
"You're not going to dismiss me, are you?"
whoosh whoosh—
Nagato didn't respond yet, but Konan, who had been guarding the door all the time, threw out a few pieces of paper that were as sharp as blades and slashed towards Obito.
"stop!"
Obito had no intention of dodging Konan's sneak attack, but the piece of paper passed through his phantom body abruptly and stabbed at Nagato.
But fortunately, Nagato has already raised his hand, shaking the paper away with the repulsive force of Shenluo Tianzheng.
"Because in their eyes, you are A Fei."
Calling Konan, Nagato didn't panic about the masked man in front of him, "Since senior wants to hide in the dark, there is no time for you to prove your identity now."
"And... I am the leader of Akatsuki, am I not? We have a common goal, and it is the same who will achieve this goal, isn't it?"
He asked the masked man back.
From a very close distance, the spiral-patterned Rinnegan stared directly at the pair of Sanwen sickle-shaped Mangekyō Sharingan,
They can hear each other's extremely subtle and steady breathing.
"……Ah"
After a long time, the masked man took a step back with a sneer, "I will go to Iwagakure."
