After nearly four days, the Six-Tails Saiken was successfully sealed into the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path. In the deep underground space, the figures of the Akatsuki members dispersed and departed one after another.
Uchiha Shin cast a greedy glance at the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path before leaving as well.
After Hidan and Sasori's consciousnesses returned to their bodies, they replenished themselves fiercely, then discussed their next move.
Sasori suggested putting the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki aside for now and detouring to the Land of Lightning to capture the Two-Tails Jinchuriki first!
Akatsuki's nine members were divided into five groups. Hidan and Sasori's group had been tasked with capturing the Seven-Tails and Two-Tails.
But Hidan disagreed. Stroking the gruesome wound where his hand had been severed, he said viciously, "I don't believe Deidara will keep following that Seven-Tails Jinchuriki around forever. And if he really is following her, even better. This time, I'll definitely chop him into eight pieces and offer him to Lord Jashin!"
"We don't stand much of a chance in a direct confrontation. Don't forget, that guy might be in Takigakure too. He may very well already know we exist," Sasori said. "If we keep targeting the Seven-Tails, we're very likely to run into him!"
"Hmph, leave if you want. I'm not going!" Hidan snorted.
How could he possibly swallow the insult of losing an arm without taking revenge?
Besides, so what if Houka was in Takigakure?
Other than Akatsuki members, everyone who had seen his ability was dead. He was convinced Houka couldn't possibly know about it!
So long as he got Houka's blood, he could still send him to meet Jashin!
Uchiha Houka's name shook the Ninja World. If he truly killed him, word would spread, and the entire Ninja World would probably worship
