?"Is this right here?"
A deep and hoarse voice said in the drifting fog.
"It should be right here. The absolute information will not be wrong."
Said a man with a muscular silhouette and a large knife on his back.
"Hmph, that guy's information may not be reliable..."
"He said that Orochimaru is Hidden Sound Village in Land of Rice Fields. As a result, the empty village was destroyed by people. It was a waste of our time to go there."
The dust dispersed, and the appearance of the visitor gradually became clearer. Scorpion was seen hiding among the crawling Hiruko and speaking in a hoarse voice.
"It's not a wasted trip..."
"After all, the legendary ninja Crimson Feather, who can defeat ten thousand with one, is also here, isn't he?"
Walking out of the dust, I saw the white-haired boy in the hotel room in front of me, accompanied by two imps. Juzo Biwa couldn't help but smile on his ferocious and weird face.
"Who do I think..."
"It turns out to be Sasori of the Red Sands, the famous genius puppet stylist Sunagakure, and Juzo Biwa, one of Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist..."
Looking at Sasori of the Red Sands and Juzo Biwa who suddenly broke into the hotel room in front of him, Yu was still calm and leisurely, but the two teenagers Bai and Kimimaro standing next to him were on guard.
"I actually recognized the two of us at a glance..."
"It seems that you are the rumored Crimson Feather..."
Both Xie and Juzo Biwa looked a little surprised when they heard that Yu revealed their identities with just one word.
"And...Konan."
"I didn't expect that we would meet again so soon."
However, he ignored the questions from Xie and Juzo Biwa in front of him. Yu looked directly past the two of them and landed on another figure who slowly walked in behind him. He said with some fun, "Speaking of which... I wanted to thank you for 'rescuing' me here last time."
"It's you?!"
As soon as he stepped into the room, he heard someone say his name. After finally seeing clearly the appearance of the white-haired boy in front of him, Konan, who had a cold temperament, couldn't help but exclaimed.
"What? You two know each other??"
Seeing Konan, who had always been taciturn, react like this, Xie and Juzo Biwa couldn't help but look at the two of them back and forth with some suspicion.
"So you are the Crimson Feather..."
Unexpectedly, the young man he had rescued here a few days ago turned out to be the target of their operation. Feeling the strange looks from Xie and Juzo Biwa, Konan could not help but bite his silver teeth, "What a cunning guy... It seems that you have recognized my identity early on."
"It's really unfair, sister Konan."
Unexpectedly, he had already offended the only beautiful ninja Akatsuki in front of him during the second meeting. Yu had an innocent expression on his face, "How did I know that the target of your mission was me? Speaking of which, I was deeply moved by your kindness last time..."
"That's enough! I don't want to hear any more of this boring nonsense..."
Hearing Yu Yue's words getting more and more outrageous, Konan's cold face turned slightly red, and he interrupted him coldly, "Don't talk nonsense, the purpose of our coming here today is very simple, which is to invite you to join our organization."
Invite me to join Xiao?
Hearing Konan explain his purpose straight to the point, Yu slightly raised his eyebrows in surprise, but after thinking about it carefully, he was immediately relieved.
Indeed, at this period, the Akatsuki combat force members are not yet full, and are still in the stage of expansion and recruiting new members. There is indeed no reason to let such a powerful combat force go.
Moreover, Yu had just left his original ninja village. Although Konoha had not issued a wanted notice and judged him as a defecting ninja, judging from his past achievements and feats, the current relationship with the five major ninja villages can be said to be extremely bad.
"That's right, if you think about it..."
"Now I seem to have become a favorite in Akatsuki's eyes..."
As soon as his thoughts changed, Yu had already analyzed the situation in front of him, and he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.
"Invite me to join your organization..."
"Sorry, I'm not interested at the moment. Maybe there will be an opportunity in the future."
After clearing his mind, Yu smiled indifferently and refused directly.
Seeing Yu directly rejecting their invitation without even thinking about it, Xie, Juzo Biwa, Konan, and the three Akatsuki ninjas' expressions suddenly changed, and the atmosphere in the entire room suddenly became as heavy as cement.
"You don't even know the name of our organization and you just refuse..."
Even clay figures have a certain amount of fire, not to mention Akatsuki, a group of unruly S-class rebellious ninjas. Juzo Biwa said as he slowly reached out and grabbed Kubikiribōchō on his back, "Even if you are quite famous in Ninja World, are you a little too arrogant?"
As one of Ninja World's famous Seven Ninja Swordsmen of the Mist, Juzo Biwa was not only the first master of the Broken Knife, Kubikiribōchō, but also full of ambition and iron-bloodedness. He once wielded Kubikiribōchō, soaking the battlefield with blood, and became famous in all countries for his cruelty.
"Arrogant? If you insist on thinking so..."
Feeling the strong murderous aura constantly emanating from Juzo Biwa in front of him, the expression on Yu's handsome face remained calm and calm, "I think you can understand this as a kind of self-confidence to control everything."
Indeed, the ninjas of Akatsuki are powerful, but now Yu not only has four Demon Puppets in his hands, but also learned Sage Mode, stepping into the realm of Devil Fruit Awakening.
Except for Akatsuki's nominal boss, Pain, who owns the legendary Rinnegan, the other ninja feathers do not think they can pose any threat to themselves.
"Hmph, there's no need to talk nonsense to such an arrogant brat. I don't have any extra patience."
Hearing Yu's seemingly arrogant words, at this time, I saw a poisonous metal tail gradually protruding from the back of the scorpion hidden in Hiruko. Cold and empty eyes stared at Yu in front of me, "Crimson Feather? I heard that you stole Sunagakure's Puppet Technique, and you were called the strongest puppet master by those ignorant guys... Very good."
"So today I will let you see what is eternal art! What is the pinnacle masterpiece of Puppet Technique!!"
Hiruko·Back tail spine!!
With a trace of anger that could not be concealed, Sasori of the Red Sands saw that the highly poisonous tail stinger made of fine steel behind him had shot out and stabbed towards the feather in front of him. This steel stinger, similar to a scorpion's tail, could not only extend freely, but would also cause poisoning and death if it was lightly scratched.
"Puppet Technique's pinnacle masterpiece?"
"Is this the boring toy you are referring to?"
Observation Haki's advanced perception ability has already seen the scorpion's attack in advance. Faced with the poisonous tail sting in front of him, he raised the corners of his mouth in disdain and tilted his head slightly, narrowly avoiding this fatal attack.
"If that's the case... then you've disappointed me so much, Sasori of the Red Sands!"
Accompanied by the careless words in his mouth, in the flash of lightning, I saw that Yu Armament Haki's blackened palm had grabbed Hiruko's steel tail spur that had not had time to shrink back, and then he suddenly exerted force and gave it a fierce swing.
"This guy... actually grabbed Hiruko's tail spine with his hand?"
Seeing Yu in front of him grab the poisonous steel tail stinger of Hiruko with just one hand, the scorpion hidden in Hiruko's body opened his eyes in surprise. Then he felt an extremely violent force coming in. The bulky Hiruko couldn't control himself and was pulled by Yu's tail and thrown up to the ceiling!
