Hokage, The Strongest Uchiha From The Sign-In

Rain Country, Akatsuki base.

Because the actions on weekdays are all voluntary and they are unwilling to collect money from the public, the Akatsuki members have a hard time and can only use abandoned factories as their base.

However, on this day, the appearance of a man who claims to be the messenger of Rain Shinobi Village has inspired the hearts of the Akatsuki and made Yahiko, the leader, excited.

"Are you serious? Hanzō of the Salamander recognizes our actions and is willing to meet us in a few days?!"

After sweeping the crowd without leaving a trace and confirming that the person in front of him is indeed the leader of Akatsuki, Danzo spoke calmly, as if he was really just a messenger responsible for delivering letters.

"Yes, I am the right-hand man of Hanzō of the Salamander, the right-hand man of Hanzō of the Salamander, and the one who is hiding from the rain. I have heard about your deeds, and Hanzō of the Salamander has ordered me to deliver the letter to the leader of Akatsuki in person."

Upon hearing this, Yahiko, who was already immersed in excitement with a head full of orange hair, revealed her identity and took the letter from Danzo.

Deeply imprinting this face in his heart, Danzo said goodbye and disappeared in the excitement of everyone.

After a while, Danzo, who had returned to his usual outfit, tapped his cane and several Root members appeared.

"The orange-haired hedgehog-headed kid is the leader. The little girl next to him seems to be a cadre of the Akatsuki. She made some noise in the village under Akatsuki and sent the hostage to Hanzō of the Salamander."

"Konoha will not interfere in the affairs of other countries' ninja villages. Do you understand?"

"Yes!"

The Root ninjas dispersed and looked up at the sky. The rain that never stopped all year round made Danzo feel uneasy and confused.

"Did you miss any clues? This creepy feeling, what exactly did you miss? To be on the safe side, prepare another layer of insurance."

In the evening, not wanting to disturb his companions who were excited about the upcoming peace, Konan alone inspected the village devastated by the war.

In the ruins, when he was about to return after confirming that there was no problem around him, he glanced at the corner and saw a small foot trapped under the ruins.

Rushing to the ruins quickly, after confirming that there was still a faint breathing sound, Konan hurriedly pushed the heavy object above aside, speaking in an urgent tone.

"Can you still speak?"

When the child's body turned over, there was a sudden click in his mouth, and a cloud of purple mist gushed out, instantly making Konan dizzy.

'Poison mist! Not good, Sand Shinobi's puppet...'

In the last few seconds before losing consciousness, he only heard a trance talking in his ears.

"Did it succeed?"

"Ah, send this guy to Hanzō-sama now..."

'Hanzō of the Salamander... Not good, Yahiko, Nagato, hurry...'

He wanted to use all his strength to send the message back, but he didn't even have the strength to move, and the world was dark.

The brief conversation disappeared, and after waiting for the drug to evaporate, the root members wearing Rain Shinobi Village clothing quickly disappeared from the spot.

The next day, the sky was bright, and the dizzy Akatsuki members just woke up and saw Yahiko's pale face. He subconsciously looked around, as if looking for something.

"Nagato, Konan hasn't come back yet?"

His eyes were covered by his red hair, and Nagato lost his sleepiness instantly. Before everyone set out to look for him, a member of the Akatsuki organization hurried over.

"Brother Yahiko, Brother Nagato, it's bad, Sister Konan was captured by the ninjas of Rain Shinobi Village, and they said...they said that they would only let you two go before they would let her go."

As soon as these words came out, a storm of shock was immediately raised.

"What! Damn Hanzō of the Salamander, the God of Ninja, actually resorted to such a despicable trick of holding hostages."

"Leader, you must not be fooled, there must be a trick here, maybe the other party has already prepared a trap in secret..."

For a moment, everyone present was excited, and Yahiko raised her voice slightly, signaling everyone to be quiet.

"Calm down, there may be some misunderstanding, you stay here and don't act on your own, believe in the strength of me and Nagato, let's go, Nagato."

Time was running out, Yahiko and Nagato acted quickly, even though they knew that the road ahead was already full of murderous intentions, they still went to that place without hesitation.

Dark clouds swept from the horizon, and heavy rain fell like a waterfall.

The weeping of the Rain Country never stopped. Yahiko and Nagato, who hurried to the scheduled negotiation site, saw the densely packed Rain Shinobi and the captive Konan.

"Master Hanzō, why do you do such a thing?"

"You childish brats, your existence is really too much of a hindrance. As the leader, you will die here, Yahiko."

Hanzō of the Salamander looked down at the two boys who he once regarded as the turning point of the Rain Country, and the kunai in their hands flashed coldly.

"Hurry up, the red-haired girl over there, or I will kill her."

The tied Konan hurriedly spoke, trying to dissuade him, but a barely perceptible light flashed in Yahiko's eyes.

On the other hand, inside the Akatsuki organization, the Akatsuki members who were about to go to support the leader were stopped by a pale and irrelevant existence.

"Can you tell me what it feels like to defecate?"

After a series of screams, the wilderness was silent, and a half-black and half-white figure emerged from the grass and trees on the side.

"In this way, Nagato has nothing to worry about. Well, how far can the Rinnegan driven by hatred go? Let's go, Afei."

A moment later, a black-clothed figure came in the air, overlooking the miserable situation below, and then turned around.

"What a strange feeling, only the ability to perceive emotions is left, kid, what did you do?"

"Just let your spiritual energy temporarily transform into a spirit state and transfer it to this special modified artificial body. Are you interested in taking a look at something that has been away for a thousand years? Shunpo."

The gushing spiritual energy attracts natural energy, which acts as a driving force to make the figure disappear on the spot.

On the hillside in the distance, Nagato picked up the kunai on the ground with difficulty. Just as he was about to speak, a familiar figure bumped into his arms.

"Nagato, if it's you, you will definitely be able to save this world....You are the savior of this world, and you must live with Konan..."

"Yahiko!!!"

The heavy rain poured down, and the cold raindrops made everything lose its temperature. The sound echoing in the ears gradually faded away, completely taking away the remaining warmth and bond.

"Do it."

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

At this point, even if Yahiko died, Hanzō of the Salamander still had no intention of letting them go.

Raising his right hand, the killing intent that was usually suppressed deep in his heart was completely ignited.

"Shinra Tensei."

Bang, bang, bang, the dense rain of kunai was repelled by the invisible repulsive force. When Nagato raised his head, his purple eyes met with Hanzō of the Salamander's. His body shook, and Hanzō of the Salamander quickly stepped back. Nagato untied the rope that tied Konan.

"Konan, you..."

Puff, blood flowers splattered, his eyes widened, Nagato stared at the tearful face and the dark lines all over the face in astonishment.
