Si gu mu kai ei ci jiong bi o!

What happened?

Mei Terumi and her two companions appeared at the location where the explosion had originated.

He looked at a pale-faced Ninja and asked.

"Ninja have broken in! One of them has very strange eyes! And he's incredibly strong! The Ninja who went to stop him was instantly killed in one move!"

The pale-faced Ninja spoke in a trembling voice, as if he had witnessed something extremely terrifying.

He had never seen such a strange power before.

Their team originally consisted of five people; four jumped up, but were instantly blasted away by an invisible force, crashing into a distant wall.

Two of them died on the spot. The one who survived was impaled on the wall by several Black Rods before he could even stand up.

The fact that the other party didn't choose to pursue and kill him left him feeling both relieved and bewildered.

"Tap tap..."

Just as Mei Terumi was about to ask for more details, she heard steady footsteps in front of her.

It didn't sound rushed; it was like taking a stroll, all in an orderly fashion.

"Chojuro," Mei Terumi called out to Chojuro behind her.

Chojuro Mei Terumi's meaning, and instantly stepped forward, picked up the Ninja whose legs were weak and whose face was pale, and carried her away.

In Mist Village now, not to mention Chunin, even a Genin is extremely important, so Mei Terumi chose to rescue this Ninja first.

"Who are you? Why are you causing trouble in our Mist Village?"

Mei Terumi looked at the figure approaching and asked warily.

"Tap tap..."

However, her voice did not stop the footsteps.

"If you don't speak up, don't blame me."

Mei Terumi issued another warning.

If it were the old Mist Village, Mei Terumi would have attacked the group without even saying a word. But in the current Mist Village, she dared not give the order to attack so easily.

If the opponent is Ninja from one of the other Four Great Nations, regardless of which nation she is from, if she dares to kill them, she will have to pay an even greater price to make amends.

This led to the second warning.

Only then did the group of people in front of them stop.

"We are Akatsuki, the leaders who have come to bring peace to the Shinobi World."

Dawn?!

Mei Terumi's expression changed instantly.

Even though Mist Village was in seclusion, they were very familiar with the Akatsuki Organization; they had been far too active lately.

They brazenly invaded other villages to capture the Tailed Beast.

Almost everyone knows that the Akatsuki Organization is going to capture the Tailed Beast.

But where in our Mist Village are there any Tailed Beast?

Don't they know that our Fourth Mizukage, Yagura Karatachi, has passed away, and the Tailed Beast died with him?

However, more than a year has passed, almost two years, and the Tailed Beast is almost reborn. She herself doesn't believe that the other party, who specializes in capturing Tailed Beast, is unaware of this news.

But she still frowned. "The Mist Village doesn't have the Tailed Beast you're looking for. You won't gain anything by coming here."

If possible, she still wants to avoid war. The village's losses are not particularly great now, but if a real war breaks out, the losses will definitely be much more severe.

"Whoosh--"

Just then, Chojuro returned.

Mei Terumi frowned.

Her intention, besides rescuing the Kirigakure ninja, was also to allow Chojuro to take the opportunity to leave the battlefield.

She still thought highly of Chojuro.

A steady but somewhat shy little boy who wields one of the Seven Ninja Swordsmen, the Twin Swords Hiramekarei.

They will definitely be an indispensable force for Mist Village in the future.

That's why she didn't want that old man Qing to go.

However, Pain did not react after Mei Terumi finished asking her question.

The man on the side, wearing a mask that only revealed one eye, looked very angry, Mei Terumi found very incomprehensible.

What happened?

It looked as if she had killed the other person's parents; otherwise, how could she have such an expression as if her mother had died?

However, Obito Uchiha's Divine Pursuit calmed down.

He no longer showed the same expression as before, as if his mother had died.

Mei Terumi was puzzled, but didn't pay much attention to it.

From her perspective, the masked man in front of her was not the leader. It was clearly the blond man standing at the front, who exuded a strong sense of oppression, who was the leader.

"I know we don't find the Tailed Beast we're looking for here, but we haven't come here empty-handed."

Before Pain could finish speaking, he raised his palm and pointed it at Mei Terumi.

The moment the hand locked onto her, Mei Terumi's body stiffened.

What is this feeling?!

I have a very strong feeling of danger!

As someone who survived the Bloody Mist Policy, I am extremely sensitive to threats to my life.

She also trusts her intuition very much!

Without hesitation, she immediately jumped aside!

"Banshō Ten'in."

Just as she jumped away, Pain unleashed a powerful suction force at her original spot.

In an instant, it sucked up the dust and gravel from the empty space.

"Is this... Wind Release?"

Mei Terumi she dodged away.

At the same time, this was to remind Ao and Chojuro.

It seems there's no way to avoid it.

"Ao, Chojuro!"

Mei Terumi called in a deep voice.

The two immediately understood that it was time to enter battle mode.

The Mist Village has been in a state of constant preparation for war for half a month, and they can instantly discern the meaning Mei Terumi's orders.

"Byakugan, open!"

Qing immediately activated his Byakugan beneath the black eye mask, and in an instant, his surroundings became clear.

"Whoosh--"

Chojuro nodded and took out his Twin Swords: Hiramekarei, which were wrapped in bandages on his back.

"Ready to fight!"

"..." Upon hearing Chojuro's words, there was a moment of silence around them.

However, Mei Terumi quickly gave the two of them a look.

After Qing and the other person understood what he meant.

The three of them began Hand Seals simultaneously.

The Hand Seals were formed very quickly, with the three of them completing them almost simultaneously.

Water Release: Mist Concealment Technique!

A thick white fog instantly rose around the three of them. Mist Village was already surrounded by a thin fog all year round, and now that the three of them released their Mist Concealment Technique at the same time, the fog around them became even thicker.

By incorporating Water Release Chakra, even the Rinnegan couldn't clearly discern the opponent's exact location.

"Ah... Chief, this is troublesome."

Black Zetsu said in a sarcastic tone.

He immediately activated the Mayfly Technique, reducing his aura to a minimum, making him virtually undetectable and eliminating any worry about becoming a target.

Obito Uchiha Mangekyō Sharingan, which allowed him to passively become intangible, making him virtually untouchable.

"Itachi, be careful!"

Black and White Zetsu offered a reminder.

In his view, Pain, controlled by Nagato, also possessed the Rinnegan's abilities, so being ambushed was unlikely to be fatal.

The most dangerous person present right now is Itachi Uchiha.

Once the attack was targeted at Itachi, he couldn't imagine how Itachi would evade the sneak attack.

In this dense fog, apart from the Byakugan, the Sharingan's observational abilities are also useless.

Upon hearing this, Itachi Uchiha stepped forward, his Mangekyō Sharingan instantly covering his black eyes.

"Susanoo, open!"
