Land of Rain.
A secret stronghold in the jungle.
At this time, Six Paths of Pain has not been completed, so Hanzo of the Salamander, the leader of Amegakure, is still alive and well. However, due to the end of Ninja World War and the loss of external pressure, the civil war in Land of Rain has become more serious..."A rebellious nin who is dissatisfied with the rule of Hanzō" is an ordinary description. However, after summoning Demonic Statue of the Outer Path and using Rinnegan to a higher level, Nagato's strength is completely different from before.
However, because his legs were injured in a previous battle with Hanzō, Nagato, who lost his mobility, could no longer become a qualified ninja, so from this time on, he acted as "Tiandao" Yahiko.
In this secret gathering point, Nagato and Konan are exchanging previous information.
"According to the information from our spies buried in Amegakure, Hanzō, the leader of Amegakure, and Danzo, the leader of Konoha's 'root', did have a secret conversation in Land of Rain. However, due to the The location of the trial was not at Amegakure, but somewhere in the wild, so we did not notice it at the first time." Konan said this. Although her tone was relatively calm, one could still feel her regret for letting Danzo slip away like this.
This secret stronghold is a cave. It is raining lightly outside, so the entire cave appears dim. However, the overall size of the cave is very huge... It is not just Kakashi Tenzo who are good at Earth Style Ninjutsu.
At this time, Tiandao was sitting on a stone chair. His posture was very natural, and the iconic Black Rods had been inserted on his face. Konan was standing on the right side of the seat, and behind the seat was a huge hollow. In the hollow was a "dry giant" with his hands cuffed by chains - none other than Demonic Statue of the Outer Path.
Some time ago, Danzo did come to Land of Rain, but he did not enter Amegakure because he was particularly concerned about his life. Instead, he made an appointment with Hanzō to communicate at a secret place. It was obvious that Danzo did not trust Hanzō's character, and the two of them often worked together.
"What's the content of the conversation?" Tiandao asked.
He is concerned about the conversation between the two parties, because the last cooperation between Gen and Amegakure was to eradicate "Akatsuki", and Yahiko died because of this. Nagato only thinks that Danzo is a villain He is obviously not very strong but he likes to jump up and down. Since he has been hiding in Konoha, which is even stronger than Hokage, Nagato has no way to easily solve Danzo.
"I heard that it was to jointly hold the event after the war. Chunin Ninja Exams, Konoha and Sunagakure took the lead, and the surrounding small countries participated one by one." Konan said.
She can easily obtain this kind of information, which shows that the spies planted by "Akatsuki" in Amegakure are very high-level. It also means that Hanzō can no longer completely rule Amegakure, and the prestige of "demigod" is no longer what it used to be.
If an ordinary ninja thinks about it, if the demigod really has the legendary strength, shouldn't he easily solve the rebellion of Amegakure?
This idea is very natural and reasonable, but it is really a bit difficult for Hanzō. Hanzō's "demigod" is a demigod judged by mortals, and its nature is similar to Third Hokage's "strongest Hokage". How could he beat a real wall hanging.
"Konoha has begun to integrate the surrounding forces. They are doing it for the post-war order... uniting Chunin Ninja Exams is futile and futile. What's the point of this approach?" Tiandao said.
Nagato can understand why Konoha does this kind of thing, but he also feels that this approach is meaningless. Can this kind of thing change Shinobi World? It can change nothing.
At the beginning, Nagato was an autistic and introverted person. But after Yahiko died and he became the leader of "Akatsuki", his personality began to change to the other extreme... It should be said that people who can call themselves "gods" have some problems with their brains.
Like Hashirama Senju, "God of Shinobi" is what others call him; like Jiraiya calls himself "Mount Myōboku Immortal", which obviously expresses a sense of freedom and ease of "jumping out of the three worlds", but what about Nagato? Anyway, he later went to fight against the Americans, and he was a proper terrorist.
"Now Konoha is quite powerful, we cannot take direct action against Konoha." Konan said, this is a very rational judgment.
Nagato did not respond to this sentence. After all, someone had tried it personally before. Although the other party was able to release Nine-Tails, in the end he was beaten so much that his mother didn't recognize him.
At this moment, an aloe head emerged from the ground not far in front of Tiandao, "According to our investigation, Three-Tails has indeed been resurrected, and now it should be controlled by Konoha."
"Can you confirm the location of Three-Tails?" Konan asked. In fact, she didn't trust Jue, but Nagato had decided to cooperate with the mysterious man.
"Not yet." White Zetsu said.
Konan frowned, "Aren't you guys always staring at Shinobi World's Tailed Beast?"
Black Zetsu laughed, and then began to explain, "Don't say stupid things, there are always unexpected situations in the world... When dealing with Three-Tails, Konoha dispatched Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, that Jinchuriki is a member of the Uzumaki Clan tribe who can control the power of Nine-Tails. We cannot get too close, otherwise she will definitely find out. At this stage, we must act cautiously."
"Akatsuki" is now in the stage of accumulating strength. After the failure of Obito, they will not provoke the Great Ninja Village for the time being... Well, Kirigakure does not count.
"Don't worry about Tailed Beast. Our first goal has not been achieved yet. There is no need to worry about the progress of the second goal at this time..." Tiandao didn't seem to care about the whereabouts of Three-Tails. He just used his Rinnegan to look in the direction of Amegakure.
He never said anything more about Three-Tails, he just provided another piece of information, "Speaking of Konoha's strength... An interesting thing happened to Konoha. According to the exact information, Orochimaru, one of Three Legendary Sannin, betrayed Konoha."
"Orochimaru... Are you sure?" Konan immediately asked, she was deeply impressed by Orochimaru, and this impression belongs to the "childhood shadow"... In the second Ninja World War, Konoha Amegakure On the battlefield, young Three Legendary Sannin met Nagato, Yahiko and Konan. Orochimaru felt that such war orphans were pitiful, so he decided to kill them and free them.
This idea belongs to the real "Namo Gatling Bodhisattva".
"It's true. No matter what Orochimaru's personality is, there is no doubt about his strength, and he might be able to come in handy," Jue said.
Tiandao stood up and walked towards the entrance of the cave step by step. When he was about to go outside, he stretched out his right hand and touched the pattering raindrops outside.
"Next, I want to strengthen the monitoring of Land of Rain. Previously, Hanzō left his lair, but we didn't notice it. Otherwise, our first goal should have been achieved by now." Tiandao said.
It seems that Nagato also has some regrets for not noticing the activities of Danzo Hanzō. Even if he only dispatches the law of heaven, it will be enough to eliminate the conspiracy duo.
Nagato began to use Rain Tiger Justu, using the light rain to monitor Land of Rain's environment. However, as soon as he activated this technique, he immediately noticed something abnormal.
"... It seems like a guest is coming Amegakure."
At this time, Yuhara is sitting on the back of the bird crossing Land of Rain.
At this time, Kakuzu has been searching for Land of Rain for a long time... all for 70 million.
