Kirigakure, Great Tycoon Limited Company.
The company building at night is brightly lit and bustling with people.
The open-air secret technique collection room, mission acceptance hall, points exchange room, and hundreds of former Kirigakure Ninja are now bustling with company employees, their faces beaming with smiles.
Many more of the absent Kirigakure employees are also working hard on missions in various countries.
Points and cash can be used to exchange for rare and secret techniques from various countries.
Ordinary ninjas can also learn S-rank, and even forbidden, scrolls that were previously completely inaccessible through hard work!
Two years ago, it was Bloody Mist of deceit and treachery; now, they are united...
Everyone's obsessed with money!
Both the development of the village and the lives of individuals have undergone dramatic changes in these three years!
From the initial panic of the village being captured, to the current reverence for Haruma, almost like a pilgrimage...
"Hello, boss!!"
Amidst the fervent gazes of the crowd, Haruma's lips twitched as she strode into the conference room.
This damn guilt, add one more!
In the conference room
Secretary Mei Terumi, Executive Officer Ao, Zabuza, Jonin of the Gold Medal Squad, had been waiting for a long time.
As soon as Haruma Tian entered, he immediately addressed his secretary, "The secret techniques of the Land of Lightning —you'll hand them over to Shisui later."
Mei Terumi Shisui's " Haruma Operation Plan," nodded.
Take the gun, no.
This wasn't the first time she had collected secret techniques from other countries and displayed them in her own collection room according to their corresponding point levels.
The fact that the two of them, along with a few children, managed to conquer a major ninja village in a single day was something that the others present seemed quite unremarkable.
After all, this wasn't the first time, and the group was pretty much used to it.
Previously, Haruma disguised himself Obito and single-handedly retrieved the secret techniques of various ninja villages, managing to escape unscathed.
It's not surprising that this is happening now.
Haruma quickened her pace, her tone slightly hurried as she instructed, " Orochimaru will come in seven days. Inform me then in the secret room on the top floor."
"A secret room on the top floor!?"
Mei Terumi stared at Haruma in horror, her eyes filled with disbelief.
Ao and Zabuza, who were listening in, had expressions that were exactly the same as Mei Terumi's!
The Rich Man Company Building, over 100 meters tall, has undergone several renovations and is now the tallest and most magnificent building in the Land of Water, with a total of 33 floors!
The so-called top-floor secret room that Haruma mentioned was a floor reserved exclusively for the company boss, and a no-go zone for ordinary employees!
The existence of the thirty-third floor is precisely where Haruma secluded himself for cultivation.
Each time the boss goes into seclusion for just a few days... his strength will increase exponentially after he emerges!
From being able to barely see anything at the beginning, to now being completely unable to perceive anything...
I thought that after a long period of calm, this monster might have reached its peak!
result???
"Look at you all making such a fuss; you just happened to have some feelings about it."
"Alright, that's settled then. Remember to let me know in seven days."
After saying that, Haruma hurriedly went to the secret room to begin her seclusion.
The Kumo Ninja's cash reserves, plus the Akatsuki's funds that had been repeatedly stolen.
With a long list of balances in the mall, Haruma couldn't wait to enjoy this feast!
The three people left in the meeting room looked at each other, their expressions extremely complicated.
Even as his subordinates, they were quite frightened by Haruma's terrifying rate of improvement!
In this Shinobi World, is there truly anyone who can rival this "monster"???
Three days later, at dawn.
The official announcement issued by the Fourth Raikage and the Daimyo of the Land of Lightning swept through the country like a whirlwind, stunning everyone!
The announcement was rather long, but extremely detailed!
In addition to describing the great battle that had taken place three days prior, the devastation in Kumogakure also depicted.
The Akatsuki leader's power, the Rinnegan's Dōjutsu, and how to counter them...
The remaining figures appear in Kumogakure, clear portraits of each official member...
The terrifying ambition of the leader who calls himself a god and wants to dominate the Shinobi World was also published!
At the end of the announcement, A, in the name of the leader of Kumogakure, declared that he would fight Akatsuki to the death!
They even extended an invitation to the leaders of the Five Great Shinobi Villages to gather.
The purpose was to discuss how to eliminate this terrifying organization, a scourge on the Shinobi World!
The Fourth Raikage's character was known to all the village leaders.
Although the tone at the end of the announcement was as resolute as ever, preferring to die rather than surrender!
But this invitation was extended to the village leaders...
It was supposed to be a discussion, but it felt more like a plea for help...
And yet, someone as arrogant as Raikage A could be so...
The existence of the Akatsuki and the terror of its leader are self-evident!
In Amegakure, Nagato, who was preparing to hold a gathering of all members, was slightly Nagato.
The Virgin and the Azure Dragon were the first to send back a communication signal.
Nagato pondered for a moment, then activated the spell.
In the dimly lit room, a single candle burned faintly in the center.
The dim yellow candlelight illuminated a bit of the darkness.
Four phantoms stood at the edge of the light, discussing each word carefully.
Sasori and Deidara, whose injuries had not yet fully healed, recounted all the information that had happened that day.
I originally planned to report back after I fully recovered.
But after receiving a report from his informant, even the usually composed Scorpion couldn't sit still.
A chilling killing intent flashed in his eyes, Nagato coldly said, "Not only me, but those members who attacked Kumogakure were probably all imposters as well."
Konan, who looked slightly worried, said softly, "Zero, let's gather everyone together and confirm this first."
"A mere handful of people conquered one of the Five Great Shinobi Villages; the opponent lurking in the shadows is no weakling."
"What if some of those people are actually official members of our organization? Wouldn't that mean our every move and objective has been under their control all along?"
Nagato frowned and remained silent.
Although he had the confidence to fear no one,
But he simply couldn't find those few rats deliberately hiding in the shadows in the vast Shinobi World.
Especially within the organization, there might be enemy spies...
After a moment, Nagato nodded. "Then let's gather everyone and ask them first."
Just as the leader was about to inform the others, Scorpion spoke up first, "Wait."
Nagato turned his head and saw Sasori glancing at the remaining two without saying a word.
At Sasori's insistence, Nagato waved his hand and severed Konan's Chakra connection with Deidara.
It wasn't that Konan thought Konan was untrustworthy; it was just that Nagato was too lazy to waste time explaining.
With only two people remaining, Sasori said in a deep voice, "The person impersonating the leader might be connected to Obito, the Masked Man!"
"Um?!"
Nagato's eyes narrowed, but he remained silent, waiting for Sasori to explain the reason.
Although he remained suspicious of the Masked Man.
But that person has contributed a lot to Xiao's development. If he was colluding with those rats, why would he repeatedly frame him?
After Sasori knocked Deidara unconscious, he was chased but deliberately let him go. He then recounted the conversation he vaguely overheard and his own deductions.
A few days
Besides recovering from his injuries, Scorpion was also reviewing every detail of the operation in his mind.
First, they suddenly received news of Orochimaru's whereabouts, after two years of no contact.
Kirigakure Ninja was blown out of the battlefield right in front of the Sannin!
Just as they were about to arrest Orochimaru, the Kirigakure from the Uchiha Clan rushed out to stop them!
It was assumed that the release of Susanoo was due to Chakra depletion, but then the imposter posing as the leader appeared...
All these coincidences seem more like a pre-arranged puppet show!
He and Deidara were like puppets, constantly controlled by someone using Chakra Threads!
Even if the Masked Man is innocent, there must be spies from the other side within the organization!
The two key suspects that Sasori mentioned to Nagato.
It was none other than Black and White Zetsu who provided Orochimaru with information!
There's also Uchiha Itachi, who shares the same clan as Shisui!
