When Itachi woke up again, the base in Takino Country was already empty.
The message with only a few sentences proved that he had found the right place this time.
"Hey~ you fell down before I even exerted any force."
"Come on next time! Smiley face"
"PS: This base is given to you. It's a pity that you can't take away many things. Let's keep the accounts first, and the interest will be calculated as 9 out of 13. No need to thank me."
The signature was... Shinomiya Aoha who yawned and knocked Itachi to the ground.
Looking at the smiling face painted on it, Itachi's mind immediately pictured the despicable smile of someone who deserves a beating!
He fell down without exerting any force?
Just yawn and beat me down?
Come on next time?
!!!
Itachi resisted the urge to dismantle the entire base and put the note away silently with an expressionless face.
This will be the basis and basis for him to find the other party next time and explode!
He won't give up until that Hun Dan is beaten into a pig's head!
But it was obvious that the other party's growth rate exceeded his expectations.
Especially the last move...
He actually couldn't even defeat Yasaka's magatama, which had 11 magatama.
That guy has already practiced his own ninjutsu to this extent.
It's not enough, he needs to become stronger!
If it was Qingyu who chased him before, then from now on, it is his turn to be the chaser.
only...
Itachi's left hand suddenly passed in front of his eyes, and then he fell silent.
It has already deteriorated to this point.
If this continues, it's hard to say how many more times these eyes will be able to sustain him in his full-strength strikes.
If the light is completely lost, he will never have the chance to kidnap that guy back.
A heavy sigh suddenly echoed in the base, which was empty except for him.
............
Just after Qingyu defeated Itachi, something else happened.
The combined teams of Sunagakure and Konoha, who had been chasing all the way, finally blocked Deidara and Kisame outside the cave entrance.
After a fierce battle, Kisame was defeated by Kai who opened the seventh gate, and was eventually shot down into the river without a trace. His life and death were unknown.
Deidara, who faced the siege of everyone, also lacked an arm, and the amount of explosive clay could not be replenished. He was finally defeated by Kakashi's thunder cutter, and at the cost of an eye, he finally escaped from the air in embarrassment.
.
Since there were no flying ninjas and many people were injured in the battle, we had no choice but to let them go.
Later, Chiyo and his party found Gaara's body in the cave.
Chiyo first entrusted Kankuro with his treasured puppets and last words, and then cast the forbidden technique: Reincarnation with regret in his eyes!
Using all of his own chakra as a medium, he gave all his original life to Gaara, thereby resurrecting Gaara.
The price is naturally Chiyo's own life.
This forbidden jutsu was originally a ninjutsu developed by Chiyo in order to resurrect Scorpion's parents. It can bring people back to life, and it can also bring life to dead puppets.
It is a miraculous ninjutsu!
It's just that Chiyo still couldn't wait for her grandson Xia to come back, and she didn't get to see Xia again in the end.
With such regret, Chiyo closed her eyes forever.
Faced with this result, everyone fell silent.
Although Gaara was resurrected from the dead, he also managed to escape the influence of Ichibi Shukaku and was able to gain a new life.
But the price is still too heavy.
Kankuro, who inherited Chiyo's last wish, also felt that his responsibility was too great. He not only had to guard Gaara and prevent Sunagakure's future from dying again, but he also wanted to find Scorpion and fulfill Chiyo's last wish.
This is also a huge test for him.
.............
A few days later, Qingyu led people to the new base.
This place is located in a mountain range in the country of bears. It is secluded enough and is far away from the nearest town.
It was probably impossible for Xianglin to run out and play when nothing happened as before.
And after this 'mistake', Xianglin didn't dare to reveal her whereabouts frequently anymore.
As for punishment...
Qingyu said that he was not a devil, so why would he punish Xianglin for such a thing.
He just tied Xianglin to a rope and flew the kite 5 or 6 times along the way, saying that he was training her will.
Of course this is not punishment, at most it can only be regarded as revenge!
You offended the abbot and still want to leave?
He's dead and ready to kill!
If I didn't summon the Eighteen Bronze Men of Shaolin Temple to beat this evildoer to death with sticks, it would be a sign of mercy from me!
Then Qingyu participated in another secret meeting of Akatsuki.
Learned that Deidara and Kisame were defeated and escaped.
Payne does not approve of this failure!
So the next plan was finalized, first offering a New Year's salute to Kumo Gakuin.
Seeing that the 61st year of Konoha was about to come, Nagato decided to destroy Kumogakure first, take away the Eight-Tails, and then attack Konoha, drawing a successful conclusion to the next step of the plan.
Everyone knew that as the leader, Payne wanted to show his strength.
The main target is Yasuo, otherwise there is no need to notify everyone for such a small matter.
The general idea is: "Everyone is seated, I'm going to increase my moves and start pretending to be B!"
Qingyu didn't care about this, and even wanted to laugh a little bit.
Maybe then, he can still join in the fun.
It would be more interesting if Nagato overturned.
............
After Itachi rushed back to Konoha as quickly as possible, he immediately reported the information he got from Aoba to Jiraiya.
After listening to Itachi's story, Jiraiya's expression suddenly became extremely solemn.
This day is indeed coming!
The purpose of the Akatsuki organization is to collect all the tailed beasts, and now only Konoha's Nine Tails and Kumogakure's Eight Tails are left.
So the credibility of this information is very high!
It's just that the leader of Akatsuki finally wants to take action himself, which is not good news for them.
Especially the leader of Akatsuki may be more powerful than Yasuo...
At present, the ninja coalition of the five major ninja villages has not yet been formed, and at this juncture, it is uncertain whether Akatsuki will attack Kumogakure first or Konoha first.
If we cannot gather all our strength, we can only rely on ourselves to survive this crisis.
The only good news is probably that the Akatsuki is also facing internal strife. If Yasuo can be designed to break up with the mysterious leader of the Akatsuki, it will be very beneficial to them.
Maybe the huge threat sweeping the entire ninja world this time may collapse!
But what to do?
Jiraiya fell into deep thought.
After a long time, he immediately wrote down all this information and some of his thoughts, and sent people to spread it to Yunyin Village as quickly as possible.
