Naruto, the strongest Uchiha from signing in

The Land of Rain, Akatsuki base.

As all operations are voluntary and they do not charge the public, Akatsuki members have a hard time and can only use abandoned factories as their base.

However, on this day, a man who claims to be the messenger of the Rain Village appears, which inspires the people of Akatsuki and makes the leader Yahiko excited.

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

After sweeping a glance at the crowd and confirming that the person in front of him was indeed the leader of Akatsuki, Danzo spoke calmly, as if he was really just a messenger responsible for delivering a letter.

"That's right, I'm the right-hand man of Hanzo-sama's right-hand man, Heiji who's hiding from the rain. I heard about your deeds, and Hanzo-sama ordered me to personally deliver the letter to the leader of Akatsuki."

Hearing this, Yahiko, who had orange hair and was already immersed in excitement, revealed his 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 attire, tapped his cane, and several Root members appeared.

"The orange-haired hedgehog-headed kid is the leader. The girl next to him seems to be an officer of Akatsuki. She made some noise in the village under Akatsuki and sent the hostage to Hanzo."

"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 constant rain all year round made Danzo feel uneasy and doubtful.

"Did you miss any clues? What on earth did you miss that creepy feeling? To be on the safe side, let's prepare an extra layer of insurance."

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

In the ruins, just as he was about to return after making sure that there were no problems around him, he glanced at the corner and saw a small foot that was pressed under the ruins.

Rushing to the ruins and confirming that there was still a faint breathing sound, Xiaonan quickly 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 cracking sound in his mouth, and a cloud of purple mist gushed out, instantly making Xiaonan dizzy.

‘Poisonous fog! Oh no, the puppets of Sand Village......’

In the last few seconds before losing consciousness, I could only hear the sound of a dazed conversation.

"Did you make it?"

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

‘Salamander Hanzo.......Oh no, Yahiko, Nagato, hurry up!......’

They wanted to use all their strength to send the message back, but they didn't have the strength to move at all. The world was dark.

The short conversation disappeared. After waiting for the effect of the drug to evaporate, the Root members wearing the clothes of the Rain Village quickly disappeared.

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

""Nagato, isn't Konan back yet?"

With his eyes covered by his red hair, Nagato instantly lost his sleepiness. Before everyone could start looking for him, a member of the Akatsuki organization hurried over.

"Brother Yahiko, brother Nagato, it's bad, sister Konan was captured by the ninjas from Rain Village.......He also said that he would not release you unless you two go."

As soon as these words came out, a storm of shock and excitement arose.

"What! The damned Salamander Hanzo, who is still called the God of Ninja, actually resorted to such a despicable trick of holding hostages."

"Chief, you must not be fooled. There must be something fishy going on here. Maybe the other party has secretly prepared a trap......."

For a moment, the crowd was excited. Seeing this, Yahiko raised his voice slightly and signaled everyone to be quiet.

"Calm down, there may be some misunderstanding. Stay here and don't act on your own. Believe in the strength of Nagato and me. Let's go, Nagato."

Time was running out, Yahiko and Nagato acted quickly. Even though they knew the road ahead was full of murderous intentions, they still rushed 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 ninjas and the captive Konan.

"Lord Hanzo, why did you do such a thing?"

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

Hanzo looked down at the two young men who he had regarded as the turning point for the Rain Country. The kunai in their hands flashed with cold light.

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

The tied-up 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, irrelevant being.

"Can you tell me what it feels like to have a bowel movement?"

After a series of screams, the surroundings were silent, and a half-black, half-white figure emerged from the grass and trees nearby.

"In this way, Nagato will have no worries. Well, driven by hatred, what can the Samsara Eye do? Let's go, A Fei."

A moment later, a black-clothed figure came from the air, overlooking the tragic scene below, and then turned around.

"It feels so strange. Only the ability to perceive emotions is left. Little boy, what did you do?"

"It just allows your spiritual energy to temporarily transform into a spirit particle state and transfer to this special modified body.

Are you interested in taking a look at something you haven't seen for a thousand years? Instant Step.

"The gushing spiritual energy pulls the natural energy 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 were you, you would definitely be able to make a difference to this world.....You are the savior of this world. You must live with Xiaonan......."

"Yahiko!!!"

The rain was pouring down, and the cold raindrops made everything lose its temperature. The voice echoing in my ears gradually faded away, completely taking away the remaining warmth and bond.

""

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Even though Yahiko was dead, Hanzo still had no intention of letting them go.

He raised his right hand high, and the murderous 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 the eyes of Hanzo. His body shook, and Hanzo quickly stepped back. Nagato untied the rope that bound Konan.

"Xiaonan, you....."

With a puff, blood splattered everywhere. With his eyes wide open, Nagato stared in astonishment at the tearful face and the dark lines all over it.
