After two days of frantic traveling, finally, Orochimaru and Jun Tianlin appeared at the gate of Amegakure...
Looking at the dark sky and drizzling village in front of him, Jun Tianlin couldn't help but shrink his pupils and sighed softly, "Is this Amegakure... It is indeed a rainy village worthy of the name"!
"Hiss, stop sighing, let's go to the village first. As Pain said, as soon as we enter the village, someone will come to guide us." He glanced at Jun Tianlin, and Orochimaru said softly, and then he strode forward.
"What, isn't it just Rain Tiger at Will Technique? Besides, who can't do it? It's just useless." After hearing Orochimaru's words, Jun Tianlin was obviously dissatisfied and could not help but murmur in a low voice.
However, complaints are complaints. After seeing that Orochimaru had gone far away, Jun Tianlin still sighed helplessly, stepped into the rain, and chased after him.
Amegakure In the tallest building, in a wide room, Nagato, whose back was stuck with dozens of black pipes, opened his mouth to Konan beside him. He said softly, "Orochimaru and his apprentice are here. Konan, please go and greet them. Otherwise, it is impossible for the two of them to find our Akatsuki base!"
"Okay, Nagato", nodded gently, and Konan instantly turned into pieces of white paper and disappeared into the room.
"Teacher, didn't you say that when we enter this village, someone will come to greet us? How come we have been walking for so long and no one has come yet?"
After saying that, Jun Tianlin put his right hand on his head, trying to block the rain falling from the sky. Unfortunately, Jun Tianlin's hand was too small for his strong body and had no effect at all.
"How do I know? If you want to ask, just ask that Pain." At this time, Orochimaru's face was gloomy, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. A trace of murderous intent spread quietly along with Orochimaru's emotional ups and downs.
"Sorry to keep you two waiting for so long"!
Just when Orochimaru and Jun Tianlin were waiting impatiently and were about to explode, the voice of Konan suddenly came from the sky...
Subconsciously looking up, Jun Tianlin saw in the mid-air, suddenly composed of countless white pieces of paper... Konan!
"Click"
Gently falling to the ground from mid-air, Konan held a paper umbrella and slowly walked up to Orochimaru. He smiled apologetically and said, "I'm really sorry. Due to some reasons, I was delayed a little bit before I came to pick you up. I hope you won't be offended."
"Huh, everyone can make excuses. Only you know whether you are right or not. Okay, let's just say it. This time you asked two of us to come to Amegakure. What do you mean?" Orochimaru glanced at Konan, then snorted coldly and asked impatiently.
"Regarding this matter, please come with me. Leader Pain will explain it to you personally, please." After saying that, Konan turned around slightly and walked forward, once again becoming the leader.
Looking at Konan gradually going away, even Orochimaru was so angry that he had nowhere to vent his anger, so he had no choice but to follow Konan together with Jun Tianlin, slowly moving forward in the rain...
Ten minutes later, under the leadership of Konan, Orochimaru and Jun Tianlin finally saw the "leader" of Akatsuki - Pain in an extremely luxurious mansion.
"Hiss, my leader, tell me what you are calling us for this time. If there is nothing important, we have been in the rain here for so long. If you don't give us an explanation, I will be very unhappy."
Speaking of this, Orochimaru's eyes showed a hint of coldness, his face was full of indifference, and he looked like... he was really angry!
However, no matter how provocative Orochimaru's tone was, Pain acted as if he didn't hear it and spoke to Orochimaru on his own,
"Recruiting the two of you this time is indeed a major matter that requires your efforts. Besides, apart from you, I have also recruited Sasori of the Red Sands, Kakuzu, Qian Pei Kisame, and Jue from outside. So don't complain, because... the status of all of you is the same in my eyes, and no one is special than the others."
Hearing Pain's words, Orochimaru was immediately shocked, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and countless thoughts quickly flashed through his mind...
"Not only did he and Tianlin come here, but the other four official members of Akatsuki also came here. Is Pain planning to make some big move?"
Thinking of this, Orochimaru felt a flash of surprise in his heart, and couldn't help but ask, "What is the purpose of bringing all of us together? Shouldn't you also reveal it to us a little bit?"
After taking a deep look at Orochimaru, Pain continued to speak coldly,
"Sasori of the Red Sands, Kakuzu and Qianpei Kisame all have other tasks. They are no longer among Amegakure. As for you Orochimaru Well, I originally planned to let the three of them act together, but after thinking about it, I decided not to. After all, Akatsuki is seriously short of manpower, so I plan to let you and Jun Tianlin carry out another mission!"
"Oh, what kind of mission is so dangerous and requires three Kage Level experts to act at the same time?" After hearing Pain's words, Orochimaru was shocked again and asked again.
"It doesn't hurt to tell you, you will know next anyway... The three of them went to welcome Uchiha Itachi, the new member of our organization. Of course, as a condition for joining Akatsuki, we have to help Uchiha Itachi destroy Uchiha Clan. Therefore, I sent Kakuzu and the three of them to Konoha.
As for the two of you, Orochimaru, the next task you need to perform is to recruit the defected genius Explosion Release ninja Deidara from Iwagakure into my Akatsuki. I believe that with your methods, Deidara is definitely not your opponent. As long as you defeat him, joining the organization will naturally come naturally.
As for you Jun Tianlin, your mission is the same as Orochimaru. I need you to recruit Kusagakure's rebellious ninja Hidan to me Akatsuki, but I need to remind you, Hidan has very evil abilities, you must not let it get your blood, otherwise, even if you have those mysterious eyes, you will definitely be finished!"
Ignoring Orochimaru's questions, Pain directly stated the purpose of calling Orochimaru and Jun Tianlin... to recruit Deidara and Hidan into Akatsuki!
PS: In the original work, I remember that at the time of Uchiha Clan Massacre, it was Orochimaru, Sasori of the Red Sands and Kisame who assisted Itachi in annihilating the clan., also at that time, Orochimaru fought against Itachi, and was instantly killed by Tsukuyomi with one move, and then developed a pathological pursuit of Sharingan...
However, this article is different from the original work. Now Orochimaru already has the body of Shisui, so I made a small change and let Kakuzu replace Orochimaru to destroy Uchiha Clan, instead of letting Orochimaru go.
As for Hidan, I remember it was Kakuzu who recruited Akatsuki, and Deidara was recruited into Akatsuki by Itachi's magic spell.
