Fugaku opened the door
It was dark inside the door. It was clearly a sunny noon outside, but the owner of the room closed the door curtain to prevent any sunlight from entering.
This is Sasuke's room...
At this moment, he was lying on the white sheets, staring at the ceiling blankly.
Fugaku walked over quietly and sat next to him. He didn't say anything, just stayed with him silently.
Sasuke didn't react at all, as if the person who walked in was not his father.
"We have clues to Itachi's whereabouts."
After a long time, Fugaku slowly spoke.
Upon hearing the name Itachi, Sasuke's eyes changed for a moment, from being godless to crazy and confused, and then to being helpless with confusion...
"Where is he."
Slowly, Sasuke also opened his mouth. He looked at the ceiling and gradually became more energetic.
"Tano Kuni, according to the news from Konoha Anbu, he last appeared in the afternoon three days ago. He appeared in Tano Kuni wearing the uniform of the Akatsuki organization." Fugaku explained.
A week has passed since the end of the experiment. Sasuke has been in a state of mental depression. When he suddenly accepted the death of 996 people in his mind, and used the Mangekyō Eye Technique three times in excitement, Sasuke's spirit The state has never been stable.
and…
He also suffered an emotional blow...
These days, Fugaku has been accompanying Sasuke, which at least made him less emotionally unstable. However, when he heard Itachi's name, Sasuke still unconsciously burst out with a large amount of chakra and mental fluctuations.
Fugaku, who was beside Sasuke, felt a slight pressure, and he was even more convinced of Itachi's judgment.
Sasuke does have endless potential, but...
Where's Itachi
That guy Itachi got the blood fusion ritual from Orochimaru. Is this destiny normal
At the same age, Itachi might not be worse than Sasuke now...
"Akatsuki Organization..."
Sasuke's eyes regained their vitality, and he muttered the name of this organization that was not unfamiliar to him.
Itachi joins Akatsuki
He clenched his fists and said:
"I want to go to Tian Country!"
He spoke in a low voice, but it contained a firm will. Even if it wasn't for the nearly a thousand deaths and those cold and heartless words in his memory, he would still go to see Itachi Uchiha again just for the sake of that gentle brother. .
He wants to ask, who is he in his eyes? Are all his previous performances in front of him disguised? Is power so attractive to him
Is the attraction so great that you can abandon your family and betray the family's glory? !
"Well, the Hokage has approved it. You will perform the mission with Jiraiya, Hatake Kakashi, and Namikaze Naruto. The goal of the mission is to bring Itachi back to the village."
Fugaku sighed after finishing speaking.
"Itachi has been very independent since he was a child. Maybe... he has some reasons for doing these things."
He still couldn't help but say a good word for Itachi. He knew that Itachi's purpose was to make Sasuke grow up quickly in a very short period of time, and he would not hesitate to get a bad reputation for this.
But now his goal has almost been achieved. Sasuke has opened the Mangekyō Sharingan, and part of Mogami's spiritual power has been digested. He is now considered a real strong man.
In other villages, a single bottle of strength would already qualify as a shadow...
"Bring it back to the village..."
Sasuke murmured, then relaxed his hands and sat up slowly. He revealed his Mangekyo Sharingan and said
"Of course I have to bring him back. With his longing eyes, I will bring him back to the village and bring him to your father!"
… … …
The country of Tian is a small country bordering Konoha. There used to be no shinobi villages. However, due to the incident in Wave Country not long ago, the country of Tian also accepted a large number of people.
The daimyo of Ta no Kuni, whose national power had increased, established the Ninja Village, Oto Ninja Village, at the suggestion of a ninja.
In the streets of Oto Ninja Village, which was newly built not long ago, there is a ten-story building with the sign of 'Little Master'. This is a chain brand established in the Ninja world more than ten years ago. Its origin is In the Land of Rain, branches were set up in various countries in the ninja world.
Moreover, there are powerful ninjas as backers behind the 'little master'. I heard that in the current Rain Kingdom headquarters, even the unruly demons have to be honest.
At the entrance of such a huge hotel, Itachi raised his head and looked at the building more than thirty meters high. He never imagined that this would be the stronghold of the Akatsuki organization.
If he hadn't joined the Akatsuki organization, Itachi might never have connected the largest hotel in the ninja world with the most terrifying mercenary organization in the ninja world...
He walked in through the back door and then came outside the innermost room on the top floor.
Opening the door, six people were already sitting inside.
"I thought who the newcomer was. We have so many of us waiting, but it turns out he is from the Uchiha clan."
The speaker has a pair of purple eyes and short silver hair slicked back. He is also a ninja who was recently recruited to Akatsuki, the undead ninja Hidan in the original work.
He has always been lawless, and he is very curious about the Uchiha clan, which is currently famous in the ninja world.
Since the demon incident, Uchiha has established itself as the largest clan in the ninja world. The two super ninjas who have activated the Mangekyō Sharingan and possess the Wood Release, coupled with a large number of clan members, even own the top ninja village. strength.
Moreover, in recent years, there have not been any major melees in the ninja world, and the Uchiha clan responsible for guarding Konoha does not rarely go on missions in the outside world. Therefore, it is rare to see an Uchiha clan member at this moment, and Hidan is naturally very curious.
But facing his words, Itachi had no interest in answering. He directly found a seat and sat down.
Nagato is sitting in the center of the long table. The three people on the left are Kakuzu, Scorpion and Hidan, and the three on the right are Konan and Shimazaki Ryo.
These are the top leaders of the Akatsuki organization. Black Zetsu completely disappeared and left not long ago, taking White Zetsu with him, so they will not be present at this gathering.
If he doesn't leave, Madara, who has already exposed his trump card, will probably kill Black Zetsu directly...
Itachi sat in the back seat behind Shimazaki Ryo, leaned back on the chair and closed his eyes quietly.
Feeling bored, Hidan curled his lips and stopped talking. He hated dealing with genjutsu-type ninjas the most. They were really the nemesis of his immortal body.
"In addition to adding a new member to this gathering, there is one more thing to talk about."
Nagato slowly opened his mouth and said, his voice was very oppressive. Even if he lost his Rinnegan, he was still the strongest person in the Akatsuki organization, and if you don't count people like Madara and Hashirama, he could be considered the strongest person in the entire ninja world. The strongest ninja in the world.
The only people who could possibly compete with him were Orochimaru and Itachi.
"Is it about money?"
The person who is most keen on money said casually
"If you think you can exchange immortality for money..."
Kakuzu's eyes lit up and he said, "That is a priceless treasure!"
Shimazaki Ryo leaned on the chair, narrowed his eyes and said, "Immortality? Even Madara and the others don't dare to say this, right?"
The Sixth Path also has a lifespan limit, and the Otsutsuki brothers exhausted their lifespan and died of old age.
However, as long as some methods are used, the Six Paths level still has many means of immortality. For example, the four people of Momoshiki, Jinshiki, Ura Shiki and Ichiki all lived to Boruto's turn, but the Six Paths brothers didn't want to do that.
But in the eyes of people in the ninja world, the Six Paths level is indeed unable to achieve immortality, so what Shimazaki Ryo said makes sense.
"You should have an impression." Nagato glanced at Ryo Shimazaki and said, "You met Dio back in the Lido Kingdom."
"It's him..." Shimazaki Ryo smiled and said, "That guy became a vampire. This is indeed immortal."
"What? Did you find any clues about him?"
"One day ago, he sent someone to find Akatsuki." Nagato said calmly, "He entrusted us to deal with the ninjas of Konoha. The reward was the stone ghost mask, that evil ninja tool that can transform people into vampires."
Itachi opened his eyes. He heard the name Dio from Shisui, and knew that he once caused Jiraiya to fight hard, and then disappeared. He didn't expect to suddenly appear at this moment.
Konoha had been pursuing information that had no clues for more than ten years, but he had only just joined Akatsuki and got it. This fact made him feel ironic.
"Do you want to accept it?"
Konan said, "In the beginning, Dio formed an alliance with the demons. The latter brought great trauma to the ninja world. If we accept Dio's commission, it will be very detrimental to us in terms of public opinion."
"Of course I have to accept it." Kakuzu has already exchanged Dio for a priceless treasure. Naturally, he cannot let him go at this moment. He said, "The demons themselves have been living in the Country of Grass for ten years, and they have not even been punished. What’s a Dio who disappeared early in the war?”
What Kakuzu said makes sense. Many of the great demons who followed the Holy Lord to launch the war were still alive, but they were active in the Land of Grass without being punished. The ninja world tolerated these demons who harmed themselves with an extremely tolerant attitude. clan.
Xiao Nan stopped talking. Although she had a battle with Dio, it was a long time ago.
The only thing she worries about is that Dio is a pretty evil guy, and helping him may lead to some bad consequences...
"The stone ghost mask is the foundation of Dior's identity. Why should he hand over this thing?" Seeing Konan stop talking, Shimazaki Ryo said curiously.
"To make a person hand over a ninja tool that he once regarded as a treasure, either he got a better tool, or he never thought about fulfilling the contract."
Scorpio gave his opinion
Shimazaki nodded, indicating that he agreed with Scorpion's point of view, and then added, "It is also possible that he has some own purpose, and in front of that purpose, even sacrificing the stone ghost mask is worth it."
"Okay, we're not here to discuss this. Isn't the point about whether we should accept this commission or not?" Hidan said impatiently.
"Akatsuki is not a coercive organization." Nagato was the first to speak. "So, it is up to you to accept or not, and I will not interfere with your judgment."
"Then leave it to me." Kakuzu said with a dark laugh.
"Hey, I haven't agreed yet!" Hidan, as Kakuzu's partner, protested
However, it was obvious that the protest was ineffective. The one with the biggest say in their two-person team was Kakuzu. In addition to his seniority, the most important thing was that Kakuzu also had a ninjutsu that was close to immortality. Hidan wanted to rely on his own ability to Yin Kakudu's words can't be done.
After saying one thing, Nagato turned the topic to Itachi.
"Uchiha Itachi, the Akatsuki organization consists of two people as a team, Kakuzu and Hidan, Shimazaki Ryo and Scorpion are a two-person team. Now I have selected your partner, but you need to recruit him yourself. .”
recruit
Itachi originally wanted to get involved in the Kingdom of Water. After all, Dio said he was going to hire Akatsuki to deal with Konoha. Maybe there would be some of his acquaintances among the people coming to Konoha.
But when he heard Nagato's words at this moment, he knew that he couldn't go.
Do you still have some concerns about yourself
Although in the eyes of everyone, he made a big mistake and escaped from Konoha, he is still a member of Konoha after all. When he has just arrived and is not familiar with each other, he will generally not be used in tasks involving Konoha. It's also normal.
And recruiting...
Does this mean that the Akatsuki organization wants one more person? I don’t know who it is…
Itachi was very afraid of Akatsuki. Not only was the leader Nagato extremely powerful, but even the members also possessed magical powers.
Take Shimazaki Ryo alone, although his combat power is not particularly strong, but combined with the instantaneous time and space ninjutsu, it is enough to make him proud of everyone below the Sixth Path level.
No, even a six-level powerhouse may not be able to function in the face of that level of teleportation ability...
This ability is really too strong.
As for the others, although Itachi didn't understand them yet, he thought they would definitely be weak, otherwise there would be no need for them to be teammates.
Nagato waved his hand, and an illusory piece of paper appeared above the long table, with a person's name and his life written on it.
And that person’s name is…
'Himura Kenshin! '
… … …
"Quick! Capture Battousai!"
In the streets of the Kingdom of Iron, dozens of warriors wearing iron armor were running in an orderly manner.
The leader was a bald man with a huge cross scar on his right forehead. He roared angrily.
"Himura Kenshin, you ungrateful villain, Mifune-sama treats you like his own son, but you assassinate him, I must kill you!"
In front of them, there was a young man with a brown-red ponytail. He had a rather gorgeous-looking long knife on his waist and was running hard at the moment.
"I said it, I didn't do it!"
He shouted while running, "I really didn't do it! I didn't assassinate Mifune-sama!"
The words are filled with anger and hatred. Anger is the anger of being framed, and hatred is the hatred of being forced to do nothing.
"Dozens of people saw it with their own eyes, and you still want to quibble!"
The samurai general named Okisuke is an Iai master of the Iron Kingdom and a subordinate of General Mifune.
Not long ago, his colleague Himura Kenshin suddenly sneaked into the general's house to assassinate him. If another samurai hadn't happened to be there, this ambitious guy might have succeeded in the sneak attack!
And now, this shameless traitor is still saying that he did not assassinate him!
Do you think they are all blind? !
In the past few days, they sent a large number of samurai to hunt down Himura Kenshin, but they were never able to succeed.
In addition to receiving the true inheritance from General Mifune, this guy is also said to have received the inheritance from another master swordsman, so although he is still young, his strength is no less than that of the general.
Unless they all come together, they won't be able to catch this traitor!
