The crowd dispersed, and Yahiko noticed that Nagato looked worried. He patted his shoulder and said with a smile, "Are you worried about the female ninja who might be your tribe? Don't worry, we will snatch her away when Chunin Ninja Exams is over."
Konan joked, "I didn't know, I thought you were the bandit leader."
Yahiko laughed at himself, "In the eyes of the leader of Land of Rain, our Akatsuki organization might be just like mountain bandits."
Yahiko found that Nagato was still silent and asked, "Nagato, what's wrong with you?"
Nagato looked at the two of them with complicated eyes and asked hesitantly, "Did you really not feel anything just now?"
"Ah? What does it feel like?" Yahiko was a little confused.
Nagato took a deep breath. "The Hidden Grass Village ninja just now did not escape, but was killed by Konoha Ninja... Although he was not killed directly, he will definitely not survive."
"Ah?" Yahiko knows the power of Nagato, and would rather doubt himself than him, "Are we being controlled by Genjutsu?"
"It's not Genjutsu, maybe...Taijutsu?" Nagato's eyes were confused, and he wasn't sure what kind of power it was.
"Taijutsu?" Yahiko and little South City were stunned. Can Taijutsu do such a thing?
Nagato took a deep breath. "It's not just you, almost everyone is frozen by him, as if time has been frozen. The loneliness is scary."
Although Yahiko and Konan don't have a tangible feeling, you can feel the horror just from the description of Nagato.
Yahiko reacted and asked hurriedly, "Then did he find that you were not affected?"
Nagato nodded. "He found it."
"He didn't do anything to you, right?" Yahiko was very nervous.
"No, he didn't seem to care that I saw this scene. Maybe he just hates trouble and doesn't want to waste time on such things." Nagato guessed.
Yahiko was silent for a moment. "How about we give up on this mission?"
"Why, isn't this your dream? You can finally move towards peace." Nagato asked.
"The opponent is too powerful, I can't let you risk exposing your abilities." Yahiko shook his head.
"Let me give it a try. I won't force it. I will only use the power of Summoned Beasts. If it still doesn't work, I will give in decisively." Nagato said in a sincere voice.
Yahiko hesitated for a moment and then said, "Well, maybe that person is not as powerful as we thought."
"He is the target of this bounty, Chiaki Setsuna?" Kakuzu licked the corners of his dry mouth, "It's very difficult. No wonder Underground Black Market someone offered such a high bounty."
"You can actually tear apart Fire Prison with your flesh. What a perfect body." Xie looked at Setsuna obsessively. After enjoying the farce on the street, he returned home with the materials he bought from the puppet shop.
Chiyo was already at home, but Scorpio didn't say hello and walked straight to his room as if he saw a stranger.
Chiyo sighed, "Xiao, I have something to tell you."
Scorpion's tone was cold. "What's the matter? Old lady."
Chiyo said in a deep voice, "Let me tell you a secret first. Don't panic after hearing this, and don't tell others. Lord Kazekage has actually been missing for almost two months."
Xie's expression was a little subtle, but Chiyo didn't pay attention. Instead, he continued, "This news can't be hidden for long. If the news spreads, Daimyo is likely to cut military expenditures again, so we plan to take advantage of this Chunin Ninja Exams to determine next year's military expenditures in advance with Daimyo before the news of Lord Kazekage's disappearance spreads."
"This requires us to show a sufficiently outstanding performance in Chunin Ninja Exams. You also know the situation of our Hidden Sand Village. Among Genin, Baki is the best, but with his ability, it is estimated that it will be difficult to satisfy Daimyo."
Xie suddenly understood and asked coldly, "You want me to fake an identity to participate in Chunin Ninja Exams?"
Chiyo nodded. "I know this is very difficult for you. If you don't want to, I won't force you..."
"I agreed." Xie Yan said concisely and concisely.
"At worst, I'll give Baki a powerful puppet that can be easily operated..." Chiyo didn't react until he was halfway through speaking, looking at Xie in disbelief, "You agreed?"
Xie said calmly, "Chunin Ninja Exams will be very interesting this time. With Hidden Sand Village's strength, if you meet those two people, the outcome will definitely be a disastrous defeat."
Chiyo was shocked and asked hurriedly, "What inside story do you know?"
Xie said, "It's just that I happened to encounter a good show when I just went out. Among the candidates Konoha and Iwagakure, there is a ninja who can make me feel dangerous."
"Can you feel danger?" Chiyo was really surprised. Even she didn't know the extent of Xie's strength, but there is no doubt that not many of Hidden Sand Village's Jonin could be Xie's opponents.
"That Konoha Ninja is purely powerful. As for the ninja Iwagakure, he had the urge to take action at a certain moment, but in the end he restrained himself. If he hadn't leaked his aura in the excitement, I never thought that there were so many powerful people hidden in a small street." Xie exclaimed.
"They must be Jonin from Konoha and Iwagakure pretending to be Genin to take the exam. It's so despicable!" Chiyo couldn't help scolding them. They Hidden Sand Village only had this idea, but the two villages had already put it into action.
"Many people in the village know your identity. You can only fight hiding among the puppets. Even the puppets you control cannot be the ones you usually use. Can you really defeat the opponent like this?" Chiyo became worried.
She didn't worry about this problem at all before. Even if Scorpion was hiding among the puppets and controlling the puppets that were not the main battle, it would still be easy to deal with some Genin.
But now Scorpion himself has said that there are two opponents in Chunin Ninja Exams that make him feel difficult. In this case, if he has to limit himself, the chance of winning is really not high.
Sure enough, Scorpion answered truthfully, "I don't know either."
"How about... let's forget it?" Chiyo gritted his teeth and decided to let Xie give up.
She was worried that someone would find out that Xie was hiding in a puppet and fighting. This kind of scandal could cause a person to collapse. For example, White Fang of Konoha, whom she hated the most, chose to end himself in the face of thousands of accusations.
Xie's voice became even colder. "Old woman, this is my own decision, please don't interfere."
Chiyo, instead of being angry, felt pleased. "You have grown up and know how to share the worries of the village."
"Share the worries of the village?" Xie raised a sarcastic smile at the corner of his mouth, but did not argue, but his eyes were a little the Heat, "Chiaki Setsuna, will your body become an eternal art?"
