"Damn, that's terrible! Is anyone following?" A ninja from Iwagakure Village with an injured arm looked behind him, but there was no trace of anyone.
However, if the opponent is a ninja, the naked eye often cannot truly judge whether there are other ninjas around.
At this time, a "sensing ninja" is necessary.
There were six people in the investigation team. When they sneaked into Yunyin Village, they were accidentally discovered and besieged by Yunyin Village.
In the end, the team gave two of them a chance to survive at the expense of four people.
"No." The sensor ninja who was traveling with him was also injured, and blood kept coming out of the wound.
"Let's go quickly, we must convey the news to Lord Tsuchikage..."
Without thinking, the two people quickly got into the woods.
On the big tree in the distance, two people in black windbreakers watched the two Iwagakure ninjas entering the forest, with different expressions.
"Let them go like this?" the red-haired young man asked.
"Don't you think that the death of both Yanyin Village and Yunyin Village will make the conflict between the two parties more intense?" the black-haired boy asked.
"Where is Jiraiya? What should he do?" the red-haired young man asked again.
"I don't want to fight with him."
"Itachi! Pay attention to your attitude!" The red-haired young man got a little cocky, "If Payn hadn't insisted on taking you in, I wouldn't have been able to act with you. Bastard, if it weren't for you, my partner would have run away!?"
"Feel sorry."
Faced with Scorpion's questioning, Itachi lost his temper.
If there is anyone in "Akatsuki" who he feels is "reliable", it is obvious that Shin Yoshida is one of them - he quietly brought Sasuke back to Konoha Village and fulfilled his original promise.
He didn't know much about Yoshida Shin, but his reason told him that Yoshida Shin had many secrets to dig out.
However, after rescuing Sasuke, Yoshida Xin completely disappeared.
"What's the use of apologizing?" Scorpio frowned slightly, feeling depressed inside.
It's a pity that Yoshida Shin left "Akatsuki", but it's far from sad. After all, Yoshida Shin often cheated on him, and he always got involved in a large AoE.
What he cares about is another thing——
Yoshida Xin was the "Akatsuki" who was attracted by him, but now because Itachi betrayed the "Akatsuki", he, as the "introducer", cannot escape the relationship.
He had been worried about this for many days. At this time, Payne handed Itachi over to him, but Yoshida Xin disappeared.
This made him feel even more depressed.
Either, both of them come back and the "Yoshida Shin's betrayal" is revealed, or, neither of them come back, and the next time they meet, they will face each other with swords drawn.
What's going on if only one person comes back?
"By the way, why did Payne allow you to come back?" Xie asked.
"Kill..." Itachi took a deep breath, and the scene of meeting Kimimaro appeared in his mind——
"You locked up Sasuke, so who rescued him?"
Itachi could never forget Kimimaro's smile after hearing these words - a sneer with contempt.
Gu Gu
He respected Kimimaro as a man and put the headband on Kimimaro's body, under the watchful eyes of Uchiha Madara.
This can also be regarded as telling Madara that he has completely drawn a clear line with Konoha Village.
"Hey. If you don't want to answer, forget it." Xie sneered.
At this moment, a white figure suddenly appeared on the big tree behind him, "You two, we are about to have a meeting."
The two looked at each other, jumped down from the tree, and quickly moved to the foot of a nearby mountain.
Scorpion turned his back to Itachi, wary of anyone approaching nearby, while Itachi used ninjutsu against the mountain.
A crack appeared in the originally smooth mountain. Weasel entered through the crack first, followed closely by Scorpion.
After both of them entered, the cracks immediately disappeared and the mountain returned to its original state.
Inside the mountain is an empty cave, and inside the cave, there is the shadow of a huge stone statue, and there are also four normal human-sized silhouettes around it.
"How is Yunyin Village?" Payne asked.
"Everything is fine." Itachi replied.
"Where is Iwagakure Village?"
"Their review unit was attacked and surrounded, and we secretly helped them escape. After they return, they should find a way to target Kumogakure Village again. In addition to the ninjas in Iwagakure and Kumogakure Village, we also discovered
Jiraiya, won't you do anything to him?" Xie asked.
"Jiraiya? No...you didn't capture the second tail according to our plan, right?"
"No. After the death of the two Yuzukimon, the tailed beast disappeared. We had no chance to catch him... but I don't understand, our target is the tailed beast, why not catch the tailed beast?"
"We can't start a war with the five major ninja villages at the same time, so we must consume the opponent's strength. Once people notice that the second tail has been captured by us, it will inevitably arouse the vigilance of the five major ninja villages. They will target 'Akatsuki' together,
It will also be very difficult for us. It would be better to let the five ninja villages kill each other through an 'accident'. It would be better to launch the Fourth Ninja War. At that time, we can take the opportunity to capture the tailed beast.
"As for Jiraiya, he can't investigate anything here. When he returns to Konoha Village and tells the Hokage what he saw and heard, no one will connect the death of the two-tailed Jinchuuriki to us.
Together, we think this is a conflict caused by a 'misunderstanding'. What we have to do is to use 'coincidence' to provoke a war between the major ninja villages so that they have no time to worry about anything else."
Xiaonan explained the general idea.
"Will the Leaf Village be fooled?" Itachi asked.
"It doesn't matter whether they believe it or not, as long as they don't doubt us." Pain looked at Weasel and Scorpion, "I will leave the matter of Yanyin Village and Yunyin Village to others. You can set off,
Heading to Sand Hidden Village... Xia, are you familiar with that place?"
"Are you going to take action against Shukaku?" Xiao asked back.
"When you get to the place, we will give you instructions." After Payne finished speaking, the magic of the lantern body ended, and the cave became dark.
Itachi nodded, but his heart was not at peace. He could be sure that soon, Sunagakure Village would become a noisy place.
…
After Pain put away his magic lantern, he turned to Obito and Kisame, "Is Itachi reliable?"
"Last time, he had no reason to leave Konoha Village, but this time is different. He can no longer go back to Konoha Village." Obito said.
"What should we do next? Attack the Leaf Village?" Xiaonan asked in confusion.
"No, Konoha Village is the most complicated... So, don't worry about it for now. As long as we can deal with other tailed beasts, Konoha Village has nothing to fear. Our next goal is to bring Sunagakure Village in... and Kiri
Together with the Hidden Village, we fell into a deadly fight."
"Is it necessary?" Pain asked, "Isn't Kirigakure Village under your control?"
"I only control the third and fourth generations of Mizukage, but within Kirigakure Village, there is still a force that wants to resist. So, I want to go to Kirigakure Village first and wipe out this force..."
