rain,
It kept falling.
The patter seemed to have no end.
Four ninjas wearing black hooded raincoats were walking up and down in the forest.
Suddenly, the middle-aged ninja leader seemed to have discovered something.
"stop!"
As he finished speaking, several people landed on four big trees respectively, maintaining a dispersed formation and looking ahead vigilantly.
Standing in a big tree a hundred meters away were two ninjas, but they both looked like teenagers.
"Hanzo's subordinate?" The middle-aged ninja named Dabutu glanced at the forehead protectors of the two people, with a solemn look on his face.
The Kingdom of Rain is Hanzo's sphere of influence. Although there is endless chaos here, as long as you are not a ninja from the five major countries, you still have to look at the face of this "demigod".
It's just... Since when did Hanzo start taking care of such trivial matters
As mercenaries, Dafo and the others were assigned the task of attacking a village. It's impossible for Hanzo to care about such a trivial matter, otherwise the Rain Country wouldn't be in such chaos.
"It is forbidden to pass here!" The young man with yellow hair said in a deep voice.
However, he was still in the stage of changing his voice. Although he deliberately lowered his voice, he still had the feeling of a drake's voice.
"Your Majesty Hanzo, do you want to interfere with our mission?" Out of caution, the Buddha did not take action immediately.
"No, although we have forehead protectors from the Rain Hidden Village, we are not Hanzo's subordinates. If we must say..." The yellow-haired boy thought for a while and said in a firm tone: "We are from the Kingdom of Rain." protector"
He was about to name the popular organization, but when the ninja across from him heard that he was not one of Hanzo's subordinates, he started talking nonsense with him, formed a seal with his hands, and immediately started to take action.
"Earth escape rock pillar gun!"
The middle-aged ninja took the lead and rushed to the front, instantly using Earth Release on the two people not far away.
"Rude, no patience at all!" Yahiko snorted coldly.
Even though his opening remarks were a little silly, he wasn't a rookie either.
The Land of Rain is no different from other places. It is the place where the Four Wars took place. Since the Second Ninja World War, it has been in a state of turmoil.
He and his friends have been fighting since they were young, and their combat experience is no less than those of adult ninjas.
"Nagato!" Yahiko shouted, his legs suddenly pushed back hard, and he formed seals with his hands while avoiding the rock pillar gun.
"Water Escapes Water Chaos Waves!"
There was basically no reaction, and the middle-aged ninja who rushed over from the opposite side was torn to pieces.
"Earth clone?"
At this moment, an attack suddenly appeared from behind the two of them.
"Earth escape rock stealing stick!"
A row of sharp rock sticks shot out of the middle-aged ninja's sleeves and flew over.
"Water Escape Water Formation Wall"
Nagato jumped out suddenly, and a wall of water blocked the attack.
The moment the Buddha took action, the remaining three people rushed over. The four people immediately formed a circle, surrounding the two teenagers.
But Yahiko and Nagato didn't show any fear. They had seen this kind of scene too many times, and they couldn't arouse the slightest emotion.
…
Ten minutes later, the middle-aged Ninja Buddha was panting and hiding behind a big tree, his face full of disbelief.
At first he didn't pay much attention when he saw the two teenagers, but who would have thought that when they fought, he realized that the two of them were as strong as monsters.
Especially the quiet red-haired boy.
He stood silently, looking like a bastard, but in this moment, he actually used all five types of ninjutsu. What's even more frightening is that he didn't even have the slightest intention of depleting his chakra.
What kind of monster is this
There is no doubt that the Buddha is a little scared.
Carefully using the big tree as a cover, he took a quick glance and found that three teammates had been subdued. He decided to escape immediately.
As for my companions... I'm sorry, but my own life is more important.
In his long fighting career, he has long been accustomed to abandoning his teammates and escaping alone.
Even if the combat power of both sides was similar, he did not want to fight anyone, not to mention that the combat power displayed by the two teenagers in front of him was obviously much higher than his.
"When I become powerful, I will come back to avenge you!"
However, just when the Buddha was cautiously trying to leave secretly, Nagato discovered him.
"over there."
Although Nagato's Samsara Eye has not yet been developed to a very high level at this time, even if it is just some simple insight, this guy in front of him cannot hide it.
"Damn it."
The giant Buddha quickly accelerated and fled frantically.
However, after only running for more than a hundred meters, a "bang" of fire suddenly exploded beside him, and the huge impact sent him flying backwards.
It's a detonating charm trap!
The Buddha shook his head and climbed up from the ground in disgrace, but a kunai was already placed on his neck.
"I surrender." He immediately raised his hands in surrender.
He is just a mercenary and has no reason to fight for it.
Yahiko smiled, then took out a rope and tied the four of them together.
The Buddha felt relieved. If the other party wanted to kill someone, he would not tie them up.
Yahiko clapped his hands, took a step back and said, "I can let you go, but there are conditions."
"What conditions?" a chuunin asked eagerly.
"You can leave, but you must promise not to attack this village again."
"that's it?"
This requirement is too simple!
The chuunin was a little stunned. He thought he was going to sell them to the Land of Earth to mine coal.
"Simple?" Yahiko raised his eyebrows. It sounds simple, but how many people can do it
Many ninjas thought that they would not kill people, but would turn around and come back again with missions.
They have encountered many such people who break their promises.
Therefore, Yahiko coughed and reminded:
"Don't take chances. If I find out that you don't keep your promise, you won't be so lucky next time. I will sell you to the Kingdom of Wind to dig sand!"
The chuunin shuddered.
Dafo said seriously: "I can promise not to attack again, but the employers will not give up. There will definitely be other ninjas coming."
Yahiko smiled and said: "Thanks for the reminder, but until the employer gives up the idea of attacking and is willing to negotiate, whether it is dozens of attacks or hundreds of times, we will stay with him until the end!"
Dafo raised his eyebrows. Before, he only thought that these two teenagers were geniuses, but now he felt that they were too naive!
"As a reward for letting us go, I would like to remind you that such passive defense is useless. Finding the employer directly and killing him is the fastest solution!"
Yahiko shrugged.
"Maybe, but that will only add more hatred. I firmly believe that people can understand each other and resolve all disputes peacefully.
This is why I won't kill you. "
"Are you... a fool?"
In the world of ninjas, you are too naive to talk about peace, right
The chuunin poked the giant Buddha with his movable index finger, fearing that it would anger the two teenagers.
While he is still young, he would rather go to the Kingdom of Water to cut sugar cane than dig sand in the Kingdom of Wind.
But the yellow-haired boy was not angry, but showed a hearty smile, exuding the dazzling brilliance of the Virgin.
"We Akatsuki! We are fighting to change this concept. We will use power, but we will not use excessive power, nor will we kill people at will.
Knowing the pain, everyone can understand each other by opening their hearts and communicating. Only in this way can hatred be reduced in the world and true peace be achieved.
In fact, you also look forward to peace, right? "
The chuunin was stunned. He also felt that the head of the ninja in front of him was numb.
Are humans...creatures capable of understanding each other
Aware of the other person's eyes, Yahiko coughed and pulled up a few grasses from the ground.
"I know you think I'm an idiot. A piece of grass is very fragile, but if there are three of them together, it will be very..."
The grass broke in response.
“…”
At this time, not only the chuunin, but also the other three people moved their buttocks back, fearing that Yahiko would become angry and attack several people.
Yahiko sighed.
"Forget it, if three don't work, just gather them into a bundle. In short, as long as we have dreams in our hearts, continue to gather like-minded companions, open our hearts, and infect more ninjas to join, we can realize our wish for peace!"
After half an hour of brainwashing, Nagato took out a kunai and cut the rope as agreed.
Before leaving, Buddha felt a little dizzy. He took a deep look at Yahiko, then turned and left.
On the way back, Yahiko felt a little depressed with a piece of grass in his mouth.
"Nagato, is my speech (Kudun) bad?"
"No, I think what you said is very good." Nagato said honestly: "Every night before I go to bed, your voice echoes in my head."
Yahiko: "..."
…
…
The base of the Akatsuki organization is in a remote town.
From a distance, the outer wall of the building looks like it is made up of pipes, with a metallic texture and a rust color.
Although this style does not conform to the aesthetics, it is in line with the weather of the land of rain... Because it rains all day here, such chopsticks are easier to drain.
After entering the base, a group of ninjas immediately surrounded them.
"Boss, how about completing the mission?" A fat man came over licking his face.
Almost all the ninjas in the Akatsuki organization are older than the three Yahikos.
But Yahiko is the leader, and most of the members joined Akatsuki because of his unique personal charm.
Moreover, these ninjas are either wandering ninjas or from Yehu Zen. Without systematic training, his strength is incomparable to that of Yahiko and others.
Therefore, there is nothing wrong with what the boss shouted.
"If the boss takes action, there will definitely be no problem." Tianzhi Jiuzuke came over and praised.
There were strange patterns painted on his face. For those who didn't know, they thought he was in fairy mode.
"Boss, there are a lot of commissions recently. Some of them are trivial things. Do we have to complete them all?" A bald man complained in a buzzing voice, holding the task list in his hand.
"Everyone should do it, and everyone in need should help. This is the mission of our Akatsuki organization."
"Oh, I really hope it can be as big as Hanzo, so it won't be so busy." Amanojisuke said with envy.
He was from the Rain Hidden Village, and he used to be Hanzo's subordinate, but later he became a rebel ninja.
Yahiko smiled and said: "Our Akatsuki will one day become an organization that cannot lose to Hanzo."
After chatting with their subordinates about trivial matters, Yahiko and Nagato walked to the second floor.
Leaning on the railing, Yahiko whispered: "Unknowingly, the Akatsuki organization has grown stronger."
Nagato nodded: "Everyone resonates with your dream, Yahiko."
"Well, if everyone unites, we will be able to achieve the peace Jiraiya-sensei said." Yahiko cheered himself up.
"By the way, where did Xiaonan go?"
Because Xiaonan was injured in the last mission, she didn't go out with the two of them this time to stay in the base to recuperate, but she didn't see her when she came back.
"She just went out, so you don't have to worry."
The sound came from a distance, and a young ninja slowly approached, with an extremely warm smile on his face.
Hearing what Ida said, Yahiko nodded, he already knew where Konan was.
This ninja named Ida suddenly came to the door one day and said that he wanted to join Akatsuki.
This person is very capable, and he knows a lot about management. He manages the organization in an orderly manner, which Yahiko relies on very much.
When he is away, it is usually left to the well field management organization.
But Nagato frowned. He didn't like this person very much. He always felt that his smile was... a bit fake.
He has a delicate mind and is very keen in this regard, so he has always been wary of Ida.
After all, the Akatsuki organization came into being. Although it is still very weak now, it will always attract the attention of some people.
The forces of the Rain Country are criss-crossed, and Nagato does not want the organization Yahiko created to realize his dream to be used by others.
No one can hurt Yahiko!
"What's the matter, Ida?" Yahiko asked without noticing Nagato's abnormality.
"There are two things I need to report to the leader." Ida said softly.
"First, a ninja contacted us today. He said he was very interested in our concept of peace and wanted to sponsor us."
"Oh, what kind of ninja is he?" Yahiko was a little happy.
Many times, tasks within the organization are free of charge. Funds and materials are indeed very scarce. It is also for this reason that the organization has been unable to grow.
Everyone needs to be happy, and love alone...can't generate electricity.
A signature smile appeared on Ida's face: "I don't know either, but the other party said that he will come again in five days and hopes to meet you."
"Yeah." Yahiko nodded, "What about the second thing?"
"While collecting intelligence today, I got a piece of news."
"what news?"
"Hanzo has begun to gather his troops and seems to be declaring war on Konoha."
"What?"
Yahiko's expression changed.
