The Traitor Organization Goes on the Offensive (Fourth Update)

Nagato has made his decision; the Tailed Beast capture plan has officially begun.

The setbacks suffered by Konoha did not diminish Nagato's confidence in the slightest.

Nagato, who almost got wiped out, felt it was all because of his carelessness in not using Flash.

If he could do it all over again, even without knowing the Rinnegan techniques he had just learned, Nagato felt he could easily crush the Konoha ninjas.

Most importantly, Ren never showed up in the end.

While collecting Tailed Beast, he also learns techniques and makes his Rinnegan even more powerful.

After making his decision, Nagato showed no hesitation whatsoever.

He channeled his eye power into the Rinnegan, communicating with the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path.

Then, create a group and invite people!

Half an hour later, in the Akatsuki's internal communication group.

Vermilion Bird Hiruzen Sarutobi, Black Tortoise Zetsu, Jade Maiden Kūchin Itachi, Sasori, Northern Dipper Kakuzu, Southern Dipper Kisame, Azure Dragon Biwa Jūzō, White Tiger Konan, and Three Platforms Hidan (yes, it's already pieced together).

All nine members of the Akatsuki, all holding the double-flower red staff, are online, listening to their leader, Zero Burial Pain's, grand plan.

"... Therefore, the organization has decided to begin the Tailed Beast capture plan. Let's start with the One-Tail. Who is willing to take on this mission?"

Pain glanced around and then waited quietly.

The people present had different thoughts.

Hiruzen Sarutobi frowned and exchanged a Fudō glance with Itachi.

Should you pass it on or I should pass it on?

Let's play it by ear!

This extremely subtle and brief exchange of glances was caught by Kisame, whose attention was mostly focused on Itachi.

Mr. Itachi, you definitely have a problem!

But who can I tell?

Madara was also an imposter, Obito Uchiha. Is there anything real left in this world?

Kisame became engrossed in philosophical contemplation.

When Scorpion heard about the One-Tail, his emotions fluctuated slightly, but he quickly returned to calm.

The first target is Sunagakure?

What does that have to do with me? I should focus on the mechs!

Kakuzu, meanwhile, carefully recalled who the One-Tail Jinchuriki of Hidden Sand Village was.

Hmm, I can't remember, it must have been something worthless.

Forget it, it's none of my business. I still have to collect debts later. Whoever wants to go can go!

Jue, on the other hand, did everything in her power to suppress her excitement.

Nagato, you've finally remembered the important matter!

However, Black Zetsu felt a little irritated when he thought of Ren, who might have been bewitched by Hagoromo.

But Nagato made the decision after visiting Konoha; perhaps they reached some kind of agreement?

Black Zetsu is not Nagato; he doesn't have the confidence to ignore Ren.

After some thought, Black Zetsu decided to have White Zetsu send some intelligence to Konoha to demonstrate that he still wanted to cooperate.

I hope Uchiha Yushu won't harm the Tailed Beast!

Konan, on the other hand, focused her attention primarily on Pain, ignoring the others present.

Only Biwa Jūzō and Hidan had similar ideas.

It's time to kill people (sacrifice them) again!

"The old man (Kakuzu) and I are willing to take on the mission!"

The voices of Biwa Jūzō and Hidan rang out almost simultaneously.

The two then glared at each other.

You dare to try and steal from me, kid?

On the other side, Hiruzen Sarutobi and Kakuzu's expressions immediately darkened.

"Biwa Jūzō, don't call this old man!"

Hidan, shut up! I don't have time to play house with you!

Both Hiruzen Sarutobi and Kakuzu clearly stated that this was Biwa Jūzō 'Hidan personal idea.

The situation is already quite clear.

Nagato knew that the Akatsuki members were cunning and scheming, but he never expected the team to be this bad.

Both individuals were willing to participate in the operation.

Pain glanced coldly at the others before speaking.

"Azure Dragon, Three Platforms, you form a temporary team. You have one week to capture One-Tail. Black Tortoise, you are responsible for providing intelligence to the two of them!"

"As for the rest, they are on standby!"

After saying that, Pain waved his hand, ending the group chat.

Unlike the original story, Nagato's philosophy changed, and he no longer pursued multiple fronts to quickly capture the Tailed Beast.

This operation to capture the One-Tail will likely attract the attention of the Shinobi Alliance, which will then target the Akatsuki.

This is exactly what Nagato needs. He is not in a hurry to collect the Tailed Beast quickly, but wants to do it one by one, giving the ninja villages ample time to react during the collection process.

While sending Akatsuki members to their deaths, the goal is to deplete the number of ninjas as much as possible.

After the video conference ended, the core members of the Akatsuki continued with their own tasks.

Biwa Jūzō went on a mission, Hiruzen Sarutobi immediately sent the information back to Konoha.

Almost simultaneously, Black Zetsu also sent a White Zetsu to deliver intelligence to Konoha.

Nearly four hours into the meeting, Itachi finally found an opportunity to ask Kisame to pass the information back to Konoha.

That night, when Fugaku saw three nearly identical intelligence reports, he was dumbfounded.

The information about Hiruzen Sarutobi was the first to be relayed back, but Konoha had no idea who the messenger was.

The Black Zetsu's intelligence arrived second. Unusually, the White Zetsu who delivered the intelligence did not ascend to heaven on the spot. At this time, his entire body was covered with seals and he was under strict guard.

Itachi's intelligence report was delivered last, and its contents were not much different from the previous two reports.

Fugaku knew that his son had been sent out as a spy, and it was no secret in Konoha that Hiruzen Sarutobi and Itachi had joined the Akatsuki.

Having obtained information about the Akatsuki, Fugaku did not doubt its authenticity.

It seems that not only Itachi, but also the Third Hokage was an undercover agent!

To Fugaku's astonishment, the information delivered by White Zetsu revealed that Ren's plans were more extensive than he had imagined!

After discussion, the people of Konoha reached a consensus, and so they did so that night.

The Akatsuki, also known as the "traitorous organization," is about to capture information about the One-Tail Jinchuriki.

Including some information about the executor Biwa Jūzō, and Hidan, they appeared before Rasa!
