A tall tower standing in the rain.

"ah!!!"

A cry of extreme pain came from Kanzang's mouth.

However, no one gave him help.

The people who hated him betrayed Amegakure's interests to Konoha's Kanzo, and many people wished he would die immediately.

And the people who followed him in collusion have already been executed.

In other words, the current survey is in a desperate and helpless state.

"You...you are Xiao's..."

Kanzang moved his body backward with difficulty, while staring at the person standing in front of him in fear.

He has long red hair and an indifferent expression, as if he doesn't care about anything. He lacks the joy, anger, sorrow and joy that humans should have.

To put it bluntly, it's like becoming a 'creature' on another level, looking down at the world from above.

Including the human beings who are struggling in the world, they are also the targets of his overlooking.

"It's been a long time, Mr. Kanzo. It's been about two or three years since the death of Hanzo-sama and Yahiko."

Nagato's tone was full of honorifics and politeness, without any murderous intent.

In other words, showing murderous intent towards this kind of guy is redundant and wasteful.

Kanzang's body was shaking, his lips were trembling and he couldn't say a word. There was only naked fear in his eyes.

Just by standing in front of him, Nagato felt an irresistible invisible force, and his body felt as if it was extremely heavy.

"However, I don't think you will pay too much attention to a small character like me. That's why I came here today to take away everything that doesn't belong to you."

Nagato spoke calmly, as if he was talking about a trivial matter.

Kanzo swallowed his saliva and finally answered: "Are you here to avenge Hanzo?"

Nagato didn't respond. From Kanzo's point of view, he undoubtedly acquiesced to this.

"Actually, I have no choice... If Amegakure lets Hanzo take charge, he will definitely lead Amegakure into the abyss. You see, now that Amegakure and Konoha are cooperating, neither Iwagakure nor Sunagakure dare to trouble us...

"

Kanzo didn't know if his sophistry was of any use, but since the other party was from Akatsuki and a subordinate of that idiot Yahiko, then, as long as it was under the banner of considering Amegakure's future, no matter what, the situation would not be too serious.

Oops.

At least, it will last until Konoha's reinforcements arrive.

"In other words, everyone at Yukaku must thank you for your profound righteousness?"

"I don't dare to take it seriously. In fact, that old guy Hanzo's will has long been rotten. As his deputy, I know everything about him. He was just forced to go to the battlefield. He didn't dare to fight Konoha and Sunagakure at all... He

He is just a vain old man who, in order to protect the name of the demigod, is willing to watch the Kingdom of Rain fall into pieces... He is the culprit responsible for the current tragedy of the Kingdom of Rain."

"Yeah?"

"That's right. Even the half-body that was once so famous cannot withstand the erosion of time and turns into a bad old man who is greedy for life and afraid of death. I have no choice but to cooperate with Konoha. Only in this way can Amegakure and the Kingdom of Rain have a way out.

If you don’t believe it, I can…”

"No, I believe you."

Nagato smiled.

At this moment, Nagato was like the embodiment of compassion, and the smile on his face gave people immense peace of mind.

Kanzo was stunned, but before he could show his joy, Nagato stretched out his hand, easily grabbed Kanzo's throat, and lifted him into the air.

"Uh... uh... you... cough... do..."

Kanzo was choked, almost suffocating, and could only speak intermittently some words that couldn't be connected into sentences.

The body and arms are thin, but the power contained inside is like an extremely dangerous and powerful beast. Kanzang's face has turned pale.

"But...is there any necessary relationship between this and me killing you?"

Nagato said these words lightly, Kanzou's pupils shrank, and there was a begging for mercy in his eyes.

However, Nagato's hand tightened tighter and tighter, like steel, trying to crush Kanzo's throat alive.

"Let...let me go...please..."

Kanzo's face was congested and turned red because he couldn't breathe.

When he was about to suffocate and die, Nagato suddenly let go of his hand.

"Ha ha……"

Sitting on the ground panting in embarrassment, Kanzang, who had narrowly escaped death, knew for the first time how wonderful it felt to be alive.

He still has a wonderful life to enjoy and cannot die here.

He didn't know why Nagato let him go, but it was definitely not out of mercy.

The idea that the other party wanted to kill him was absolutely true.

However, he didn't think much about it at this moment. He crawled on the ground with all four limbs, like an animal in danger, and rushed toward the door where he could escape.

Nagato did not stop him, and Kanzo saw hope of living.

However, the moment he grasped this hope, a shadow appeared in front of his eyes.

He had the same samsara eyes as Nagato and an old face, staring at him with calm pupils.

"Half, half hidden..."

Kanzang looked like he had seen a ghost, took two steps back in horror, and uttered nonsense in complete sentences.

He thought he saw the hope of life, but the moment he was deprived of it again, Kanzang felt even more desperate.

He seemed to have been poisoned by some kind of poison. His face was distorted with fear, and he murmured words of unknown meaning in his mouth. Then he fell to the ground stiffly and lost his breath.

"He seems to be scared to death. It's really useless."

Xiaonan walked out of nowhere, with a cold face and the smell of blood on his body. He did not hesitate to despise Kanzang.

Such a guy can become the leader of Amegakure, which is really embarrassing to Amegakure ninjas.

Relying on the power of Konoha, he is a coward who only dares to pretend to be powerful in the Land of Rain.

Nagato ignored the collected corpses, they were just insignificant people.

"Is the situation outside stable?"

"Um."

Xiaonan nodded.

Kanzo is very unpopular in Amegakure, especially in the past two years, he has used the power given by Konoha to do whatever he wants in Amegakure. Many people are dissatisfied with his rule.

Hiding death will only make them happy.

"We have to face Konoha next."

Nagato walked outside, listened to the sound of rain, and said indifferently.

If Kanzo, the spokesperson, is dead, Konoha will not let it go.

But there is no reason to return what is in his hands.

The Fourth Hokage Namikaze Minato who was extremely fearful to him was dead. Except for the Third Hokage who stayed at home, no one in Konoha was his opponent.

However, Konoha is not only powerful in high-end combat power, but also the power that the ninja troops can exert when united is also very terrifying.

That day, even the extremely powerful Kyuubi was able to suppress it for a short period of time with firepower... This was Konoha's most powerful power.

"The Fourth Hokage is dead, and the war on Kumogakure's side has resumed. They don't have any extra energy. Moreover, the information that was deliberately revealed to Konoha before can also have some containment effect."

Nagato basically agreed with Xiaonan's inference.

But even so, one cannot be careless about Konoha.

"They don't dare to do anything openly, but they will definitely make little moves behind the scenes. Moreover, we also need to strengthen some strength here."

Nagato had something to say.

Yu Yin's strength alone is not enough. If Yu Yin had not suffered heavy losses in the previous war, it would indeed be a big help.

But now the number of ninjas in Amegakure Village is less than a thousand, the economy is depressed, and the people can only live in poverty... This is even the case for Amegakure, let alone the Kingdom of Rain.

Just providing food and clothing is not a simple matter.

"Xonan... what do you think about me sending the ninjas in the village to farm the fields? In that case, the harvest in the Land of Rain will be better and the efficiency will be much faster."

Nagato asked.

"???"

Xiao Nan was shocked, the corners of her mouth twitched twice, and she was speechless.

To be honest, she felt that Nagato had no talent for humor and this could only be considered a bad joke.
