Konan entered the room.
His eyes immediately locked on the man standing at the window with his back to him.
This person was wearing a white shadow robe, which contrasted with her black robe.
The opponent is undoubtedly Fourth Kazekage, who is famous as Shinobi World.
"Hello."
The man turned around and smiled.
"Hello."
Konan nodded.
The man has neat short black hair, is about the same age as himself, has a gentle smile, and feels very approachable--
Not too shadowy in its majesty.
It has nothing to do with the legend.
The aura is not as scary as I thought."
But--why?
Konan's eyes showed a strange color.
She always felt that the other person had an inexplicable familiar feeling, as if she had seen him somewhere.
"Sit down."
Yubi stretched out his hand to indicate the empty seat in front of the table and said.
"Thank you for wanting to see me."
Konan put away the strange feeling in his heart, sat down, and said in a cold tone.
After all, we were asking for something from someone, and the person had a distinguished status, so Konan used honorifics.
The other party is Shinobi World a real big shot. They Akatsuki suddenly contacted the other party without any warning - with Yubi's status, they can completely refuse.
"Akatsuki of Land of Rain--I have heard something. You are the rebel party of Land of Rain". Under the banner of peace, you want to overthrow the rule of Amegakure and bring reforms to the country." Yubi also sat down and said directly.
This made Konan's expression suddenly become cold.
"Sorry, I was a bit more direct - because from a political and geopolitical point of view, I as Kazekage will not meet you, regardless of your Akatsuki's actions and stance in Land of Rain What is the original intention? Hanzo of the Salamander is still the actual controller of Land of Rain. If the news leaks out, it will inevitably affect the relationship between Land of Wind and Land of Rain."
Yubi shrugged his shoulders, "Of course, our two villages have no diplomatic relations to speak of."
"I just don't want to cause any trouble to us Sunagakure."
"Then why do you still want to see me?"
Konan said calmly.
"It's just that you, Akatsuki, are a bit interested in wanting to see me. You came to Sunagakure because you want to get a large amount of drug resources like other ninja villages, right?"
Yubi pretended to be stupid and said blankly.
"No."
Konan replied.
Yubi pretended to be surprised, "What is that?"
However, seeing Konan about to answer, Yubi suddenly raised his hand and stopped her from speaking, "Wait a moment."
"Hmm?
Konan was stunned.
"Did you come alone?"
Yubi asked with a smile.
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly narrowed his eyes with a cold look.
A terrifying killing intent instantly enveloped the entire room.
Konan didn't know why, his pupils shrank, and he immediately entered a fighting state.
But the next second, without warning, an invisible wave spread.
In the blink of an eye, a "listener" who was completely pale and had an abnormal physique appeared out of thin air beside the table.
Half of this man's body maintains a human form, and the other half has vine-like spikes.
It is White Zetsu!
White Zetsu has only one eyeball, and its eyes are also enlarging.
He didn't expect that Fourth Kazekage's perception ability was so strong. Before he heard what Kazekage and Konan were going to say, he was strangely "transported" out of the underground.
exposed in front of two people.
"This is the time and space ninja technique to kill Third Raikage?!"
White Zetsu was shocked.
"He is not from our Akatsuki!"
Konan also responded very quickly and said immediately.
I'm afraid Yubi may misunderstand.
Yubi's eyes changed, and when he looked into White Zetsu's eyes, he was instantly frozen in place, unable to move.
Immediately, blood-colored filaments burst out, and White Zetsu was instantly strangled by Blood Release, and his body was cut into pieces.
However, the body with its plant characteristics still has the tendency to proliferate and divide even after suffering such heavy damage.
But soon, White Zetsu who wanted to escape completely melted away.
The reason is very simple. The blood of Yubi is highly corrosive and highly toxic, and the components and cells in the blood are controllable - not just Chakra Ninjutsu.
It is a method that can swallow up the vitality of White Zetsu at the cellular level.
In the end, this White Zetsu turned into a bloody mess and was wiped away.
"It's actually here!"
Yubi sneered in his heart.
Because he returned to Sunagakure first and did not accompany Konan nor follow her.
He had no prior knowledge of White Zetsu's infiltration.
Judging from the previous series of situations, Madara is obviously not prepared to take action against Sunagakure to avoid being exposed.
But now - maybe the successor Obito has appeared, or maybe he has noticed that Akatsuki is going to change."
Therefore, White Zetsu still takes a risk and monitors what Konan and him will talk about.
Will it affect Madara's plan?
"Judging from your reaction, it really doesn't look like you are telling lies. I don't think you have the guts to go against us, Sunagakure, and send you alone to run such a stupid plan." Looking at Konan's shocked expression, Yubi laughed.
"The person - was brought here by you. From the looks of it, you Akatsuki have been targeted.
2
", Konan's mind went blank.
"Since you are not here for us Sunagakure, I don't need to worry about it. Let's talk about business. Since it is not for drug resources, what do you want to do when you come to see me?"
Yubi picked up the topic and brought Konan's thoughts back.
"The actions of our organization conflict with Amegakure led by Hanzō, but at present, according to the reliable information we have collected, it can be confirmed that Konoha and Amegakure have the possibility of joining forces - just to deal with us. I hope - Sunagakure can help us Xiaolai deal with the next variables."
White Zetsu suddenly appeared and was killed again, which somewhat disturbed Konan's mind--
However, she still forced herself to calm down and answered.
"Impossible."
Yubi replied with three words lightly.
"You know that we are not the official organization of Land of Rain yet - we have no position to help a private armed force that has nothing to do with us Sunagakure. Helping you means starting another war. Even if what you say is true, we have ceased war with Konoha and have no intention of starting a war with Amegakure. The price is so high - what are our interests?"
"There is no such thing as a free lunch."
Yubi smiled.
,,, Konan remained silent.
I had already expected Fourth Kazekage's answer.
"What kind of reward can you give Sunagakure?"
Konan closed his eyes, and some words that Senior Ye said before leaving came to mind.
Sure enough, the direction and content of the negotiations between himself and Kazekage were almost all predicted by Senior Ye.
From the beginning of this transaction, Xiao did not have the capital to negotiate on an equal footing.
"If we Xiao can take over Amegakure and control Land of Rain--then, you Sunagakure can ask whatever price you want."
Konan's eyes were tangled, and after fighting in his heart for a long time, he finally said something.
This is what Senior Ye said before, their only bargaining chip when facing Sunagakure.
"But - the premise is that we need practical help from Sunagakure, not just empty talk."
Konan immediately added.
The original intention of this sentence is to prevent the situation where Yahiko did not sacrifice, or Amegakure did not join forces with Konoha.
In short, in order to save Yahiko, Konan can violate his "faith."
But if Yahiko had not died, Xiao would never continue to cooperate with Sunagakure.
Yubi was as steady as an old dog. He tapped the table with his fingers and looked at Konan: "I am quite interested in this answer - but you should know that once the cooperation begins, you will not be able to know anything."
"Of course, I abide by the agreement. If I don't help you, the deal will be void. But if we Sunagakure do what we should do, you will have no room for regrets - the price of war is not that simple, you should understand this."
"The leader of Akatsuki should be the person named Yahiko. I've heard of it - can you fully represent him?"
Yubi deepened his tone.
"--Can--"
"Very good."
Yubi snapped his fingers.
"But cooperation begins - there is a prerequisite."
"Since you are the representative of Akatsuki, come and negotiate with me - we at Sunagakure will also invest a large amount of troops and resources to begin to deal with the possible outbreak of war. In order to ensure safety and the binding nature of the contract - you must first accept the control of our village to avoid betrayal or regret in the future."
Yubi stepped forward and pressed it."
Konan.
"We're going to inject Cursed Seal on you--otherwise, there's no need to talk."
"This is your way of coming to our village for help and gaining our trust."
After Yubi finished speaking, the room suddenly became quiet.
After a moment of silence, Konan nodded calmly and replied with a good word.
As long as Yahiko doesn't die, she can do whatever she wants.
Sacrificing herself alone in exchange for Akatsuki not falling apart - she had this consciousness.
Save the dreams of Yahiko and Nagato".
But Yahiko and Nagato must not know about being tricked by Cursed Seal.
"What's your name?"
Yubi looked at Konan with an extremely calm and even calm gaze, and felt a little more appreciative in his heart.
This is putting your life in the hands of others.
Sunagakure A series of talent introductions have put him in a state of "cherishing talents" now.
he asked hypocritically.
"Konan."
Konan Road.
"Konan--Let's put aside the cooperation first. Next, let's talk about this guy who just appeared."
"There is an internal problem within your Akatsuki - or in other words, someone is going to attack you, and we have to guard against this."
"Since we are already partners, before the action begins, based on our Sunagakure position, we must ensure that everything inside your Akatsuki is normal and there will be no variables."
"This weird-looking man - if my guess is correct, judging from his physical characteristics, he is obviously fused with First Hokage Hashirama Senju cells - that is to say, your information is correct."
"Konoha has indeed set his sights on you."
Yubi said.
Konan heard this and his expression tightened.
"Of course, the cells that can be obtained from Hashirama Senju are not necessarily Konoha - but no matter who it is, the other party must be Akatsuki's enemy - if there are any signs in the future, you Akatsuki must be careful and watch out. As long as the enemy dares to show its face, you must strangle it in the cradle."
"The other party must have been spying on you for a long time - and you didn't realize it at all."
"If necessary, we Sunagakure can do it for you."
Yubi.
