Become the mastermind behind the Akatsuki organization

Under the instructions of the Third Hokage, the news that Konoha was about to hold the joint chuunin examination soon spread throughout the ninja world.

Unlike the previous joint chuunin exams, this time the chunin exams faced the entire ninja world.

Soon, the major ninja villages received invitations from Konoha. The invitations not only contained the sincere greetings of the Third Hokage, but also the Third Hokage's proposal to replace the fighting on the battlefield with the Chunin Exam.

The major ninja villages should negotiate as much as possible on security issues instead of threatening them with force.

The leaders of the major ninja villages remained skeptical and even sneered at the Third Hokage's rhetoric. It had only been a few decades since the two heroes had dominated the ninja world, and they all still remembered how powerful Konoha was back then.

However, contempt turned to contempt, and the leader of the Ninja Village began to seriously consider whether to participate in the Chunin Exam.

When the costs of launching a war outweigh the gains, everyone is willing to sit at the negotiation table and discuss each other's interests through negotiation.

The Third Tsuchikage Onoki looked at the invitation and decided to send only one or two teams to participate in the Chunin Exam.

Even if the genin team is lost, it is not a big loss to Iwagakure Village.

The Fourth Raikage had similar thoughts. They were not very interested in taking the Chunin Exam. At the moment, they were more concerned about the masked man's problem. They sent people here to discuss the masked man's problem.

As for Sunagakure Village and Kirigakure Village, they originally wanted to send a few ninjas to deal with them.

But they received an invitation from Byakuya, and even Byakuya participated in the Chunin Exam. They were full of interest in the Chunin Exam. After all, wherever Byakuya went, chaos and opportunities often appeared.

In the Ame Hidden Village office, Byakuya, Yahiko and others also received invitations.

At this time, they were discussing the development of Yuyin Village and the alliance of forces under the Akatsuki organization.

After nearly ten years of integration, the Akatsuki Organization has integrated the countries in the northern part of the continent. Although these countries are nominally independent, they are actually affiliated organizations of the Akatsuki Organization.

In recent years, it is these small countries that have digested the industrial production capacity of the Rain Country, turning the Rain Country into an industrial power.

However, the carrying capacity of small countries is limited and is now approaching saturation.

Although the Akatsuki organization has been trying to expand the market, hoping to make profits in various countries with its advantages of high quality and low price, it soon encountered resistance from the powerful in various countries, and even caused friction in local areas.

After all small countries have been included in the Akatsuki organization's sphere of influence, the Akatsuki organization can only target large countries if it wants to further expand.

As for how to expand the Akatsuki organization, Byakuya and Yahiko have been arguing in meetings. Both sides have the idea of ​​resurrecting the Ten-Tails to make tailed beast weapons, but Yahiko prefers force to deter them.

Byakuya wanted the entire ninja world to become affiliated organizations of the Akatsuki organization.

At this moment, several people received an invitation letter from the Third Hokage. After opening the invitation letter, Byakuya showed a playful smile and said to Yahiko:

"Yahiko, this is an opportunity to show the strength of the Akatsuki organization."

Yahiko frowned subconsciously, and immediately said: "Byakuya, what are you going to do? Konoha Ninja Village is our partner, and we cannot break this relationship without authorization."

Bai Ye glanced at Yahiko, and then said: "Yahiko, I will keep a good balance. If something really happens to me one day, you will immediately take Yuyin Village and cut it with me."

After hearing this, Yahiko was shocked, and then said: "Byakuya, what do you mean by this? Do you want to leave Amegakure Village? Or do you want to implement some plan."

Bai Ye shook his head and said with a smile: "It's just a joke. The Xiao organization's business is booming, how could something happen? You still like to be anxious as before."

"Just leave the Konoha United Chuunin Exam to me this time. I will take care of everything for the organization."

After saying that, Bai Ye left the Yuyin Village office.

After Byakuya left the office, Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan looked at each other. After a long silence, Konan slowly spoke:

"What's wrong with Bai Ye? I feel like there's something wrong with him..."

Yahiko sighed softly, and then mentioned the plan to collect tailed beasts with Nagato and Konan, as well as the existence and threat of the masked man.

Nagato and Konan had known about the plan to collect tailed beasts for a long time.

They neither agree nor object to Yahiko and Byakuya's desire to imitate the First Hokage and use absolute force to maintain peace.

The two of them have always had no independent opinions and no big dreams.

But the masked man also wanted to collect news about the tailed beasts. This was the first time they heard that the masked man launched the Night of the Nine Tails in order to collect the tailed beasts and resurrect the ten tails.

At this time, Nagato seemed to have remembered something and said to Yahiko: "Yahiko, is Byakuya trying to break into the masked man? Please tell us in advance."

After hearing this, Yahiko sighed softly, and then said: "I'm afraid that's the case. If one day he ends up staying with the masked man, then he will be our enemy."

"This..." Nagato and Konan couldn't imagine the scene of being hostile to Byakuya.

After a pause, Yahiko looked at Nagato and said:

"It's been a troubled time. I don't know if Byakuya's plan is good or bad. By the way, Nagato, remember to protect your Rinnegan. The Rinnegan is the most important thing in resurrecting the Ten-Tails."

Nagato nodded. Although he didn't think the masked man would be his opponent, he still had to be careful.

…

After revealing part of his future plans in advance, Bai Ye came to a secret base.

Inside the base, the Fourth Kazekage and Orochimaru had been waiting here for a long time, and even had a discussion.

Bai Ye took their performance to heart and walked over quickly.

Before the Third Hokage's invitation letter left Konoha, Bai Ye had already received the news that the Chunin Exam was about to be held. For this Chunin Exam, Bai Ye's goal was also very simple.

That is to completely master the Konoha Ninja Village. After solving the big trouble of Konoha, you can openly collect the tailed beasts, try to revive the Ten Tails, and obtain the power of Otsutsuki.

After seeing Bai Ye appear, the Fourth Kazekage and Orochimaru hurriedly stopped chatting.

Bai Ye glanced at Orochimaru and the Fourth Kazekage and said, "Rasa, Orochimaru, you two should be almost ready for the Konoha collapse plan."

Orochimaru nodded, and then talked about the plan they prepared.

Orochimaru planned to participate in the Chunin Exam as a Jonin from the Sound Village, looking for an opportunity to defeat the Third Hokage.

The Fourth Kazekage had a similar idea, and planned to suddenly attack when the Chunin Exam was about to end.

Although the Third Hokage is very strong, he will only be defeated by the joint efforts of Orochimaru and Rasa. Konoha, which has lost the Third Hokage, will be arbitrarily manipulated by others.

As for the attack on Konoha, neither of them has too many grudges.

Both of them are rebels from their respective ninja villages, and both want to kill the Third Hokage to achieve their own goals.

Orochimaru wants to kill the Third Hokage, the helmsman, to achieve the effect of making the windmill turn again. He does not want to see a dead Konoha Ninja Village.

Rasa hopes that after the death of the Third Hokage, Konoha will fall into chaos.

At that time, the Sand Village can take advantage of the chaos in Konoha to get rid of the shackles that bind it, and turn from a vassal state to an equal ninja village again.

After listening to the plans of the two, Bai Ye nodded gently.

The plan made by the two is almost the same as the original time and space, except that Orochimaru in the original time and space killed the Fourth Kazekage on the way to Konoha in order to hone Kimimaro's sharp edge.

In this time and space, with my own existence, it is naturally impossible for the plan to proceed in this way.

After a moment of silence, Bai Ye took out an intelligence scroll and said to the two: "By the way, our goal for this Konoha Collapse Plan is not to destroy Konoha, but to target the Third Hokage."

"During the battle, you should try to show mercy to ordinary ninjas and not kill too many."

After hearing this, the Fourth Kazekage frowned and said with some embarrassment:

"If you show mercy during the battle, it is easy to have unnecessary risks, and isn't it a good thing to weaken Konoha's manpower?"

Bai Ye shook his head and said: "This is Danzo's request. In addition to us, Danzo will also participate in the Konoha plan this time. He doesn't want Konoha to suffer too much loss."

After mentioning Danzo, the Fourth Kazekage reacted and sneered:

"Isn't Danzo a Konoha high-level official? How did they also participate in the Konoha Collapse Plan? How many people does he plan to send to assist us?"

"I don't know, but when he agrees to the Konoha Collapse Plan, his men will stay put."

Bai Ye replied.

At this time, Orochimaru on the side said with a smile:

"Keeping the troops still is really Danzo's style. I remember that he was like this during the Nine-Tails Rebellion. In order to become the Hokage of Konoha, he really could do anything."

The Fourth Kazekage glanced at Orochimaru, and then said:

"Isn't that the case with you Konoha ninjas? The White Fang of Konoha died in a conspiracy, and now the Third Hokage is also like this. I don't know who will be the next time."

Orochimaru glanced at the Fourth Kazekage and said lightly: "Didn't you kill Ye Cang?"

"That was Ye Cang who took the initiative to negotiate for peace. It was the Hidden Mist Village that went back on its word. What does it have to do with me? Orochimaru, don't insult people's innocence out of thin air."

"Then Danzo is fine this time. He just didn't know we were there."

The Fourth Kazekage and Orochimaru didn't react much to Danzo's collusion with the Akatsuki organization. Instead, they quarreled because of some past grievances.

Thinking about it, I feel relieved. For normal Konoha ninjas, betraying the ninja village is an unbreakable principle.

As for Danzo, everything he did was for Konoha.

The Fourth Kazekage and Orochimaru openly discussed the past conspiracy and had an argument.

The kind-hearted Bai Ye trembled. He had been educated in the Will of Fire since he was a child and had never been exposed to such a terrifying conspiracy.

But he thought that he seemed to be the successor of Hanzo and Danzo, so it was okay.

After seeing that the two had almost quarreled, Bai Ye asked them: "The Konoha collapse plan will be implemented like this. Have you found the right person for the candidates for the Chunin Exam?"

The Fourth Kazekage and Orochimaru looked at Bai Ye and said with some doubts: "Isn't our goal to kill the Third Hokage? Just send a few ninja villages to participate in the Chunin Exam."

Bai Ye rolled his eyes: "What if we don't even pass the first two rounds and can't see the Third Hokage?"

After this, the Fourth Kazekage and Orochimaru fell silent. Bai Ye's words made some sense. They really had to think seriously about who to send to participate in the Chunin Exam.

Orochimaru is lucky. The Sound Village has trained many ninjas over the years, including some Genin who have transplanted curse seals.

The Fourth Kazekage didn't have much choice here. He had very few subordinates, so he could only bite the bullet and act as the leading jounin. If that didn't work, he would directly transform into a genin and take the chunin exam.

After confirming the candidates, Orochimaru asked Byakuya: "Leader Byakuya, who do you plan to send to take the chunin exam? Are they Kimimaro and Haku?"

Bai Ye nodded: "They are also considered ninjas I trained. Of course I will take them with me."

Orochimaru narrowed his eyes slightly, and then said: "With their strength, promotion to Jonin is not a problem. Isn't it too much to send them to take the Chunin Exam?"

Bai Ye shook his head and then said:

"It's okay. Scorpio plans to send Kankuro, Temari and Gaara to take the Chunin exam. I feel that if you don't have the strength to be a jounin, it's best not to take part in this Chunin exam."

The corner of Orochimaru's mouth twitched slightly. What does it mean not to take the chunin exam if you don't have the strength to be a jounin?

The Fourth Kazekage on the side heard his children's names, frowned, and then said: "Since Scorpion can also participate in Chunin, then I will also pretend to be a genin to participate in the Chunin exam to hone Gaara's strength."

Hearing that the Fourth Kazekage also planned to take the Chunin Exam, Orochimaru even had the idea of ​​taking the Chunin Exam, but after thinking about it carefully, he still shook his head.

He suspected that Byakuya would also take the Chuunin Exams if he did.

At that time, the normal Chuunin exam will become an unprecedented Kage-level exam. Even during the Ninja World War, the frequency of Kage-level strongmen fighting against Kage-level strongmen was not so high.

Thinking of this, Orochimaru said:

"I will not take part in this Chunin Exam. Hiding in the dark is more in line with my style."

At this time, Byakuya seemed to remember something and said to Orochimaru and Rasa: "By the way, I will not participate in this Konoha collapse plan. I will find an excuse to leave after you start fighting."

After hearing that Byakuya was not prepared to participate in Konoha's collapse plan, Orochimaru and Rasa were stunned for a moment, but then they came to their senses.

Although Byakuya carried out several operations secretly, he took control of many ninja villages.

But he still doesn't want to expose that the Akatsuki organization is behind this. The reason is probably very simple. Byakuya's goal is not only Konoha, but also hopes to become the king of the ninja world.

Orochimaru and Rasa will not object to this plan for the time being.

But they also have their own ideas in their hearts, thinking about how to obtain more benefits for themselves, and even riding on the wall at critical moments.
