Outside Konoha, at the edge of an open earth crack, a black covering layer first emerged from the ground, and then Nagato's body.
When he emerged from the soil, his knees bent and he almost lost his balance. He put his hands on the ground and vomited blood. The blood foam from the corners of his mouth and nose mixed together, dripping on the soil and spreading into a dark red wetness.
Blood was also oozing out of both eyes, running down the outline of the cheekbones, covering the blood stains that had not yet dried up with another layer.
The black covering faded from his body, shrinking to one side like a tide, gathering into a human-shaped outline.
Black Zetsu stood next to him, with the slender crack across the center of his face, looking at him quietly.
Nagato barely stopped vomiting blood, raised his head, glared at Black Zetsu, his voice was hoarse and Rage said, "You really did have a backup plan for White Zetsu!"
A long time ago, Black Zetsu suggested that he fuse White Zetsu, but he never agreed.
He knew very well the methods of these people, and knew very well that they would not give out benefits for no reason. But later, in order to defeat Uchiha Yongye, he finally drank poison to quench his thirst, and chose to accept it and fuse with Special White Zetsu Tobi.
Facts have proved that his worries were right. Just now, while he was seriously injured and dying, Black Zetsu hijacked the control of his body.
Black Zetsu's facial crack moved slightly, as if he was laughing silently.
"Without me, you are dead and become Uchiha Yongye's trophy, just like Konan."
The two words Konan were like a needle, accurately inserted into the most painful part of Nagato. His fingers clenched tightly on the soil, his knuckles were raised, and his nails were embedded in the moist soil particles. He took two heavy breaths before calming down again.
He was silent for a long time and thought about it for a long time.
Black Zetsu didn't urge him, he just stood aside, the crack facing Nagato quietly.
After Nagato stood up, he slowly spoke.
"Uchiha Yongye must be eliminated! Otherwise, all our dreams will eventually come to nothing."
Nagato sneered, his voice hoarse and dry, as if it was scraped from the deepest part of his throat. "Even Rinnegan can't deal with him, what else can we do?"
Black Zetsu's facial cracks opened slightly and then closed.
"There are two other ways. One is to collect Tailed Beast, and the other is to cultivate Senjutsu."
Nagato's brows moved. "Collecting Tailed Beast has always been our plan... to practice Senjutsu, can you convince Mount Myōboku's Toad?"
Black Zetsu shook his head.
"It's not Mount Myōboku, it's Ryūchi Cave, which is as famous as Mount Myōboku."
"However, practicing Senjutsu is very dangerous. Are you willing to take the risk?"
Nagato did not answer.
He lowered his head and looked at the blood stains between his fingers that had not yet dried, and was silent for a long time.
Then he laughed.
The laughter was very low, coming from deep in the throat, like a broken bellows being forced to pull, with a hint of madness after extreme despair.
Danger?
Adventure?
Does he have any other choices now?
In order to defeat Uchiha Yongye, he can only risk everything!
Konoha Military Police Force, underground prison.
Hidan's roar came from deep inside the cell and could be heard clearly through the two iron doors.
"You bastards will definitely be punished! The great Lord Jashin will never let you go!"
"Damn Uchiha!"
"Bastard Konoha!"
When Yongye took Mechuan Riko into the prison area, the guy was chattering and cursing non-stop.
Both of them ignored him, talking and laughing to themselves.
Inside the iron fence, Hidan was tied to the stone wall by Chain. His wrists and ankles were handcuffed with iron rings, and his whole body was hanging there in the shape of a "big".
Kakuzu and Scorpion were each curled up in the other two corners of the cell. Kakuzu was sitting against the wall, with his knees bent and his hands on his knees. His green eyes were lowered, staring at the small piece of Stone Slab in front of his feet.
Scorpion's Hiruko huddled in the darkest corner, its eight mechanical legs folded on both sides of its torso, and the light in its eye holes was as dim as two candles that were about to go out.
When Hidan saw Yongye, his scolding immediately turned up half a tone. Chain was made a splash by him, and his whole body rushed forward and then bounced back.
"Uchiha brat, let me out or kill me! Hahaha, I have Lord Jashin's blessing, you try to kill me!"
Kakuzu's green eyes lifted from their lowered state, glanced at Hidan, and then quickly fell back.
There was an unabashed pity in that look that said, "You're out of your mind." His neck even subconsciously shrank, as if he had foreseen the tragedy that would happen next.
Yongye raised his hand and flicked it casually.
A Kunai flew out from the fingers, so fast that it only left a short dark mark in the darkness, accurately piercing the heart of Hidan, creating a bloody hole!
Hidan's body suddenly froze, twitched, and Chain made a crashing sound. All the bones in his body seemed to have been taken away, and he slumped limply on the iron ring. A scream rushed out of his throat, short and sharp, and then quickly fell down.
But after only a few breaths, his body began to squirm again, as if vitality had been injected into him.
Hidan raised his head suddenly, with a wild smile on his lips. His voice was louder and harsher than before. "You brat, I lied to you! You want to kill me like this? You... ah!"
The second shot, Kunai, was faster than his words.
Kunai's blade tip penetrated through his open mouth, passed out from the back of his head, and was nailed into the stone wall behind him. The iron ring at the end was still shaking slightly.
Hidan's provocative words were cut off, leaving only the vague sound of "Aba", and the blood sprayed from his mouth splashed on the iron fence and dripped down the iron rod.
He fell down again and swung his body on the iron ring twice more before stopping.
His hands and feet were struggling desperately, his face was full of Rage, but his mouth could no longer be closed. The penetrating hole was clearly visible, and blood was pouring out from two directions at the same time.
Yongye retracted his hand, looked away from Hidan, and landed on Mechuan Riko's face.
"You see, I didn't lie to you, this idiot does indeed own Immortal Body."
Mechuan Riko stood half a step behind Yongye, his eyes fixed on Hidan, moving from his face to his chest, and then back to the mouth that was still bleeding.
She opened her red lips in wonder at first, and then that layer of wonder was quickly replaced by another, more fiery expression, the kind of look Avarice a businessman would show when he saw a unique product.
"Master Yongye, are you really willing to sell him to us? Let us handle it?"
Yongye nodded, the corners of his mouth twitching slightly.
"Of course, otherwise, I wouldn't take you to see him. However, in addition to making an offer that satisfies me, you also have to do something for me."
Mechuan Riko straightened his back immediately, folded his hands in front of him, and bowed slightly. "Please give me your instructions."
Yongye's eyes fell back on Hidan, snorted coldly, and then smiled maliciously.
--How dare you provoke me even though you are already in prison!
--It's really life-and-death!
--Let you see what viciousness is!
Yongye coldly ordered, "Build a Public Toilet, use this guy's mouth as a toilet, and the daily flow of people will be no less than a hundred people."
