The Hideout Discovered!

Hearing Uchiha's words, Lin Yan nodded in agreement.

"Naruto and Gaara will definitely take it back, but we can't just ignore the current state of Konoha."

"How about this..."

After pondering for a while, Lin Yan looked up at Uchiha.

At this moment Shisui Uchiha also arrived.

"Sorry I'm late."

Shisui Uchiha wore a solemn expression, which also carried a deep sense of apology.

It turns out that he was on a mission outside when Six Paths of Pain invaded Konoha.

"Brother Shisui, the enemy invading our existence is an organization called 'Akatsuki'..."

Uchiha repeated the information he had previously obtained to Shisui Uchiha.

Upon hearing this, Shisui Uchiha's eyes flickered. "The Akatsuki...?"

"Brother Shisui, have you heard of this organization?"

"Uchiha asked curiously."

Lin Yan's appearance rewrote part of the plot.

The Uchiha Clan was not wiped out, so Uchiha naturally did not need to defect and join the Akatsuki.

So far, he still doesn't know any more information about this organization.

"I'd heard of it before when I was on missions, but I hadn't paid any attention to it."

"It's said to be a very mysterious organization that makes a living by taking on bounty missions from the underground black market..."

"I never expected them to attack Konoha."

Shisui Uchiha glanced around, still shaken.

The ability to reduce the entire Konoha to ruins is far more destructive than the Nine-Tails' attack on the Konoha years ago.

"Brother Lin Yan also has something to say."

Uchiha reminded Shisui Uchiha.

Both of them looked at Lin Yan at the same time.

Lin Yan nodded. "Yes, now we need to divide the work and cooperate."

"The two of you will work together to investigate the Akatsuki and find out the location of their headquarters."

"I'm here to help Konoha recover."

"Once you've located Akatsuki's stronghold, I will personally deal with them."

Lin Yan's words caused a slight stir in the hearts of both Shisui Uchiha and Uchiha Itachi.

At this moment, Shisui Uchiha subconsciously said, "Konoha has suffered such a devastating blow; almost everything has been destroyed."

"We're afraid we can't afford to hire you to help us..."

Don't worry, this time it's free.

"Because I utterly abhor this act of wantonly destroying other people's homes."

"Besides, they stole Naruto and Gaara. Even if you didn't ask for my help, I would still take action against those guys!"

Lin Yan's words convinced Shisui Uchiha and Uchiha Itachi.

The two didn't think much of it; they just believed that with Lin Yan's help, they could definitely get revenge and rescue Naruto and Gaara.

After reporting to Hiruzen Sarutobi and the others, they left the village to investigate the location of the Akatsuki's headquarters.

Meanwhile, in Amegakure, the Land of Rain.

Inside the Akatsuki headquarters.

Kisame Hoshigaki and his teammates' mission to capture the Eight-Tails also went very smoothly.

Now, the last three Tailed Beast and their Jinchūriki have been brought back here.

All members of Akatsuki began to work together to unleash the super-S sealing technique "Illusory Dragon Nine Seals" on the three Jinchūriki.

"This process will take about a week or more."

"It won't be easy for all of us to seal the One-Tail, Eight-Tails, and Nine-Tails simultaneously."

"But once the seal is complete, we can realize our plan."

"Eye of the Moon Plan!"

Akatsuki Deva Path, addressed all the members at this moment.

As they unleashed the Illusory Dragon Nine Seals, the Chakra of the One-Tail Shukaku, the Eight-Tails Gyūki, and the Nine-Tails -Tailed Kurama was immediately and continuously drawn from the bodies of the three Jinchūriki.

Time also passes by, second by second.

However, at the same time, Shisui Uchiha and Uchiha Itachi, based on the clues they had obtained earlier, quickly tracked down to the border of the Land of Rain.

"Based on intelligence leads and traces left by the enemy, this is where the enemy went..."

Uchiha checked the traces and clues left on the ground one last time.

Shisui Uchiha, on the other hand, looked up at the border line ahead.

The Land of Rain is a very special country.

On this side of the Land of Fire, the sky is clear and the sun is shining brightly.

However, less than two kilometers away on the other side of the border, torrential rain was pouring down and the sky was extremely gloomy.

"The Land of Rain is a very closed-off country; they haven't had much interaction with the outside world in the last decade."

"Itachi, we must proceed with caution."

Shisui Uchiha reminded him.

"Clear!"

The two exchanged a glance, then both disappeared.

After entering the Land of Rain, the two became even more cautious in their actions.

They made their way stealthily, encountering several groups of patrolling ninjas, as well as sentries lying in ambush near the border.

Fortunately, it ended without serious injury.

In the end, Shisui Uchiha and Uchiha Itachi both arrived at the core area of Land of Rain, where Amegakure (Hidden Rain Village) is located.

Looking at the towering towers atop the vast island in the middle of the lake, surrounded by water and far from the mainland, Shisui Uchiha said, "That's Amegakure."

"Itachi, you wait here, I'll go in and scout."

"If anything unexpected happens, you need to get back to Konoha immediately to inform everyone..."

After Shisui Uchiha finished speaking, he was about to cross the water and enter Amegakure.

However, at that moment, Uchiha stopped him.

"Brother Shisui, you should have sent me!"

"You're faster; if an emergency occurs, you can get back to the village more quickly to request backup..."

Hearing Uchiha's words, Shisui Uchiha hesitated for a moment, then shook his head. "In that case, let's go in together."

"That way, we can look out for each other!"

Upon hearing this, Uchiha nodded. "Alright, let's go then, Shisui -nii!"

After they finished speaking, the two continued to infiltrate in the direction of Amegakure.

Meanwhile, in the Akatsuki's secret underground base, Deva Path, who was participating in sealing the three Tailed Beast, suddenly opened his eyes.

"What's wrong?"

Konan, who was standing nearby, noticed immediately and opened her eyes to ask.

There's someone in my rain.

Deva Path, replied.

Upon hearing this, the other members also woke up.

However, they continued to output their Chakra, pulling out the massive Tailed Beast Chakra from the three Jinchūriki's bodies and sealing it into the Gedo Mazo.

"Whoever it is, continue."

"I'm going out to meet them."

Deva Path finished speaking, he ordered Konan and the others to continue completing the seal.

He then led the other five Paths of Pain and quickly departed.
