Nagato's sudden change

By evening, Yang Xing had recovered from all her fatigue under Shizune's excellent care, without any lasting effects.

When Yang Xing woke up the next morning, he suddenly realized that he had made the right decision not to learn the enhanced medical technique.

Otherwise, they would never be able to enjoy this kind of caring treatment.

Yeah, I'll never learn medical Ninjutsu again, even if it kills me.

"Are your injuries all healed?" Seeing Yang Xing walk out of the room, Shizune, who was the first to greet him, asked with concern, "Is there anything else that's bothering you?"

"Absolutely no problem." Yang Xing stretched, feeling refreshed, and couldn't help but glance around, asking, "By the way, where's Tsunade? And what about Jiraiya? It feels like he's never been here before."

"Lady Tsunade and Lord Jiraiya with that person named Nagato." Shizune said calmly, "Lady Tsunade also told me to tell you that Guren and Konan are with her, so don't worry."

Yang Xing: "..."

Why have her two subordinates, who are both his own men, become her lackeys?

This is intolerable, absolutely intolerable!

With a single stride, Yang Xing left the house prepared by the Akatsuki and headed towards the Akatsuki's current headquarters.

The hurried departure of that figure made Shizune frown slightly. "His injury has just healed, and he's already in such a hurry. That's really reckless."

Instead of giving chase, Shizune went back to her room to sleep. After all, she had used up too much Chakra for treatment and needed to rest. At least with Lady Tsunade there, Yang Xing wouldn't be in any danger, and she could finally get a good night's sleep.

Akatsuki, within its headquarters.

The atmosphere in the room was eerie; the somber mood of Yahiko's death gradually spread throughout the space.

Nagato and Konan also looked the worst.

As their master, and Jiraiya stepped forward and patted them on the shoulder. "Alright, it's time to give Yahiko a proper burial. You should know he can't be brought back to life."

"Master Jiraiya, I have a question for you." Nagato looked up, his face cold. "Did Yahiko's death have anything to do with Konoha?"

Jiraiya fell silent. His investigation revealed that someone from Konoha was indeed involved in the incident. Although they were former members of the Anbu, they were still Konoha members who had caused Yahiko's death.

Faced with Nagato's serious gaze, Jiraiya had no idea what excuse he could give for Konoha.

"I understand." Nagato lowered his Nagato and walked towards Yahiko's body without saying a word.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, he calmly lifted Yahiko's body from the coffin with one hand.

Nagato sensed something was off about Nagato, and when Nagato stepped forward and actually lifted Yahiko's body, Jiraiya's brows furrowed immediately. "Nagato, what are you trying to do?" he asked.

Tsunade's expression changed as well. "Hey, don't you know he's already dead?"

"Nagato!" Konan noticed Nagato's movement and turned pale.

"Master Jiraiya, I have my own way of doing things, my own beliefs. I will inherit Yahiko's will, and I will change the whole world." Nagato turned around, and with a swift leap, he actually took Yahiko with him and jumped directly onto the roof, intending to leave.

"Do you even know what you're doing? This guy can't be resurrected." Noticing Nagato's strange look, Jiraiya hurriedly tried to catch up.

Unfortunately, before he could jump up and catch up, Nagato forced him back with a single look.

"Don't force me! I've already said I'm going to inherit Yahiko's will!" He left quickly, smashing through the roof with his bare hands, and no one dared to stop him.

Yang Xing is not here. Nagato, who possesses the complete Rinnegan, is no longer a simple Quasi-Kage Level ninja.

He possessed the power to destroy a country, Jiraiya, knowing this, indeed dared not pursue him.

Because of Nagato's expression, there was no joking in his eyes. He had lost his composure for Yahiko's sake and was capable of anything.

Konan wanted to follow, but Tsunade stopped her, and she could only anxiously ask, "Master Jiraiya, will Nagato be alright?"

"I don't know, but it's best not to go looking for him right now. Let him calm down."

Jiraiya finished speaking calmly, Konan lowered her head in a dejected manner. Just as Jiraiya was about to comfort Konan, the door opened and someone walked in, waving and smiling.

"Tsunade- neechan, I'm back! This young master is back!" Yang Xing, slowly approaching, indeed noticed the anomaly in the room. Looking up, he saw a large hole in the roof. "Holy crap, who smashed the roof?"

Frowning, Yang Xing looked puzzled. "Why do you all look so pale, like you just ate poisonous mushrooms? You've been lying around all day without doing anything. Little sister Guren, why don't you go get some exercise together?"

"Yang Xing, Nagato is missing." Jiraiya spoke first, his brow furrowed. "He vanished without a trace, taking Yahiko's body with him."

"Oh, I see." Yang Xing walked up to Guren without paying any attention, a smile on his face, "It's been a while since we've had any exercise, little sister Guren, come and train a bit!"

That's all?

Yang Xing didn't react at the moment, and the group looked at each other, unsure of what to say.

Moreover, Yang Xing, who grabbed Guren's hand, was indeed out training, which made the others smile wryly, as they knew they couldn't catch up.

Yang Xing clearly didn't want to get involved anymore, and since Yang Xing didn't want to get involved, there was no other way to get involved.

These were rare days of rest and recuperation; time seemed to pass very slowly in the Land of Rain.

Several things happened in the past three days, big and small, but in summary, there were only two things.

Nagato went missing for three days, with no news of his whereabouts, the Akatsuki was left leaderless and on the verge of disbanding.

Yang Xing, who was training with Guren and could be considered to be on a leisurely trip, decided to leave the Land of Rain after these three days.

Of course, Yang Xing had no intention of returning to Konoha. There was still a long time before the agreed-upon time for their daily Hiashi, and Yang Xing wanted to continue doing what he wanted to do during this time.

This is something that must be accomplished as soon as possible.

This is how he established an intelligence organization belonging to him throughout the Land of Fire.

Currently, the key personnel for the intelligence organization have been decided: Guren and Konan. Although they are girls, their future strength and achievements will be no less than those of elite male Jonin.

Yang Xing was most pleased that two very talented girls were there to carry out his plan.

Three days later in the Land of Rain, in a village with a vaguely heavy atmosphere.

"I have a feeling that things are different now than when I first came here."

"Hmm." Guren lowered her head, her voice tinged with sadness, and said, "Their country's leader is dead, and both leaders of the Akatsuki are missing. This country is about to be finished."

Guren, having been through this herself, knows this matter best.

This country has lost all its initial vitality and hope; if it continues to wait, only destruction awaits it.

This reminded Guren of the moment when her hometown was destroyed.

Her face was beginning to darken slightly, but someone's words drew her attention back.

"Don't worry, I'll protect you." Yang Xing smiled, his expression relaxed. "Don't worry about the country or anything like that."
