'Katz, katz. '
The gravel grinds under the soles of the feet, making a different sound, and what you see is the boundless sea of sand and the terrifying storm coming from the sky! !
It is like a natural disaster brought down by the world, like a guide sent by the God of Death, intending to destroy all things existing on the surface of the earth!
but,
The travelers walking alone on this land didn't seem to care much about the approaching disaster. They even stopped with interest and raised their hats to block the sand and dust, as if they were admiring something. A kind of magnificent scenery.
"Jie, this country is really the same as before."
'Suck slip. '
The long scarlet tongue slowly licked the corners of his mouth, and greed and teasing poured out of the corners of his narrow eyes.
Then, he took the initiative to plunge into the terrible sandstorm without any hesitation or fear. It seemed that such a natural disaster was not enough to waste time on detours and waiting.
And looking towards the far distance along the path of the sandstorm, a magnificent human city is located in this sandy land where life is hard to find.
Even the natural disasters raging deep in the desert cannot arbitrarily cross this territory built by humans!
"Great, this sandstorm has taken a detour!"
"Yes, otherwise we will have to work hard to clean the tower again in disgrace."
"Well, well, it seems that my prayer worked."
"Hey, why don't you come? It's obviously thanks to Master Fengying."
There were guards wearing standard ninja uniforms congratulating themselves on the tower made of sand.
There were smiles on their faces, and their expressions were not so nervous. First, because the sandstorm that could bring some trouble to the village changed its trajectory and left for the distance. Second, few enemies would choose to go deep into this vast area. Deep in the desert, the harsh environment that restricts their development is also the best natural barrier.
"Hey, you guys."
But at this moment, a rough voice suddenly sounded in their ears.
Hearing this, the expressions on the faces of the four people suddenly stiffened, and their slightly relaxed waists suddenly straightened up, because the owner of the familiar voice that entered their ears was:
"Yes, Lord Markey!"
They did not dare to neglect and quickly turned around respectfully. What came into view was a middle-aged man with a broad build and wearing a dark-colored ninja uniform. He had a Chinese character face and two special marks painted under his right eye. The left eye was blocked by a white cloth hanging from the top of his head. This is to prevent wind and sand from blowing into the hair, so most Sunagakure ninjas choose to wrap their heads with white cloth or bandages.
The name Maki represents the top combat power of this village, an elite Jonin with commanding ability and individual strength!
Therefore, the four people named felt a little uneasy.
'Gudu. '
The Adam's apple rolled. Just the moment they looked at each other, the four Sunagakure ninjas on duty felt that they were being stared at by a man-eating beast. They didn't even dare to make any movement with their hands stuck to the sides of their pants. .
[Oops, I’m going to be punished. 】
[I should have been more attentive if I had known earlier. 】
A similar resonance sounded in their hearts.
However, the visitor didn't seem to mean to cause trouble for a few people. Although he still had a straight face, he blurted out the words: "Take turns, go on duty in the village."
Naturally, the four Sunagakure ninjas did not dare to disobey the orders issued by their superiors, let alone interrupt and ask more questions. Besides, the best situation was to not cause trouble for them and not be reprimanded.
"Yes, Lord Markey."
"You have worked hard!"
After bowing in unison, they hurriedly walked past each other and trotted towards the interior of the village.
Not long after the original guards left, a small black spot suddenly appeared on the unobstructed horizon. As time went by, this small black spot slowly expanded and gradually took on a human-shaped outline.
The trajectory of those who came was exactly the direction in which the sandstorm roared and raged across the sky!
[Oh, it’s finally here? 】
Ma Ji lowered his eyes slightly, and the light flowing in his pupils was full of danger and alertness.
However, he still said to his cronies behind him without looking back:
"Go and report to Master Kazekage, that person is here."
"yes."
After a simple response, a ninja behind the middle-aged man suddenly disappeared.
And within this short period of time, the traveler wearing a sandproof hat also slowly walked under the city tower.
I saw that after he stopped walking, he casually lifted up his bamboo hat, revealing his long black hair and...
【who? 】
Such a clean young female face immediately made Marky's thoughts somewhat difficult to turn around.
Especially paired with the long straight black hair and the magatama earrings hanging on the earrings...
Where did the girl doll come from?
According to the agreement, that person should be the one coming this time.
Could it be that the guy didn't intend to fulfill the agreement, or maybe he had concerns, so he sent his subordinates?
After all, I heard that the other party also built a...
But before the speculation in Ma Ji's heart could continue to dissipate, a joking sneer sounded from underneath the city tower made of sand.
"Hoo."
Such laughter immediately made Ma Ji, an elite Jonin, frown. If the visitors were only that person's subordinates, then there would be no need to continue the exchange, let alone an invitation to Sunagakure Village.
However, just when his inherent momentum was about to explode, and when the question in his mouth was about to come out, he suddenly met the other person's eyes.
Those special vertical pupils that look like terrifying giant pythons!
'Buzz. '
As if being bombarded by an invisible force, the burly Markie took a step back unconsciously.
Such an unsightly appearance was as if the four previous Sunagakure ninjas had seen his arrival!
This is the feeling of oppression coming from above, from the strong! !
【It's him! 】
【Is it really him? 】
[Even if not, then he must be someone closely related to it! 】
Due to the young female face, Marki was never able to confirm the other party's identity.
As for the art of disguise,
Of course he thought of this level,
But he couldn't find any loopholes in the other party's disguise!
Markey is confident about this.
"So, how long do you want me to stand here?"
The visitor below the tower made a sound again.
It’s a male voice!
A bit hoarse and extremely magnetic.
Hearing the sound, Ma Ji's pupils shrank again.
Because what he experienced was not only the direct inquiry on the surface, but also the impatience and threat hidden underneath.
It's like saying: 'Do I need to cause a scene here? '
【It's him! 】
This time, Ma Ji didn't have any doubts in his mind, and he could better avoid the eyes and ears of others.
Thinking of this, his voice and attitude became a little more respectful: "The Yondaime-sama has been waiting in the reception room for a long time. Please come with me."
[After all, this guy is the former Sannin of Konoha, Orochimaru! 】
"Jie."
Hearing this, the visitor who looked like a young woman did not reply. She just lowered her anti-sand hat again and walked into the sand hidden village with strange architecture under the guidance of the middle-aged man.
At the same time, a dispute full of gunpowder also broke out in the Kingdom of Rain, adjacent to the Kingdom of Wind.
Absolutely crazy!
He is really going crazy!
Six Paths Pain, the dignified Six Paths Pain was not able to do anything to a teenage brat! Grains
Who can believe or accept such a result?
You know, after confirming that this hunting was not a trap set by the five powers, he was already waiting for Nagato's triumphant return with joy and confidence!
Even if there was a little hiccup in the middle, even if the Bai Jue clone he arranged was easily crushed by the prey, the determination in Jue's heart did not waver at all.
Payne will win the fight, dominate the situation,
This is the undoubted result.
But what?
But the result was six intact puppets, returning empty-handed with the always half-dead image of Nagato!
"You let him go?"
Jue gritted his teeth and asked in a deep voice, his cold eyes filled with hostility. Even if the other party was his nominal leader, it would have no effect!
Moreover, he was really trying very hard to restrain himself, otherwise the words he used would never be so gentle and harmonious!
After all, the potential identity that Uchiha Ara may have made his scalp numb and he couldn't wait to erase it!
Nagato did not respond immediately to this question.
However, there seemed to be some obscure fluctuation in his deep purple pupils.
【If it is Yahiko,】
[If it is a true companion,]
[Will you ask questions in a hissing voice without asking any reason at the first time? 】
He lowered his eyes slightly and recalled the past.
During this time, there were also other thoughts running through his heart.
【Let Uchiha Ara go? 】
[I was prepared to say that it was him who let me go. 】
[Also, it turns out you were at the base, so why didn’t you appear in that prophecy? 】
Turbulent emotions began to roar in his chest,
However, it was Xiaonan who moved faster than him.
A series of sharp paper shurikens attacked the black and white aloe vera without hesitation and regardless of the occasion!
"This is Akatsuki!"
She scolded sternly, with fierce murderous intent blooming in her light orange pupils.
Such an attack was too sudden.
Not only did he never expect that Konan would launch an attack regardless of risk, but even Nagato didn't expect that it would unfold like this.
No, he should have expected it.
Because in a sense, only Konan is his companion and a true member of the Akatsuki organization! !
However, although Xiaonan's attack was very sudden and the distance between the two was not too far, before those pieces of paper came, several White Jue clones suddenly sprang out from the ground and protected the main body directly. in the middle.
Even in his own base camp, the latter seems to be on guard against something all the time, and those white spore clones with similar shapes are its victims.
'Puff puff. '
As the sound of skin tearing was heard, the clones used for death also turned into clusters of disgusting spore cells.
At the same time, the cold look in Jue's eyes became clearer and clearer, and the dissatisfaction and anger in his heart even grew louder as he blurted out the words:
"Attacking your comrades? What on earth do you want to do? Have you forgotten the rules of the organization: you are not allowed to attack your comrades?"
"Konan!"
[Have these two people discovered something? 】
The haze at the bottom of Jue's heart became more and more intense.
A popular saying among humans was wildly disturbing his inner being at this moment:
'Don't do evil things, don't be afraid of ghosts knocking on the door'.
But in fact, when Sansho Hanzo was estranged from the Akatsuki organization, he and Obito were the ones who eliminated all the subordinates who went to support Yahiko.
Of course, such an extermination operation was done flawlessly, and after a long time, it has become difficult to verify and trace who the executioner of the attack was.
But it was precisely because of such a past that Jue couldn't help but show a trace of panic.
Of course, he also tried to cover up the panic with anger, preemptive strikes, and arousing the so-called agreement between companions.
But none of the people standing around said anything, or even ignored it.
After all, this world relies on strength, let alone the Akatsuki organization, which is a group of extremely vicious people.
He's just a member of the intelligence gathering team who doesn't do much work.
If it’s gone, then it’s gone.
You know, that guy Kakuzu had 'accidentally killed' many of his main battle companions before.
Looking around at the mocking eyes of the so-called companions, the expression on Jue's face began to become more gloomy.
After all, Madara's existence has not been directly revealed and exposed. Apart from Nagato and Konan, the only ones in the organization who really know about each other's existence are Uchiha Itachi, who is gradually being excluded.
There is simply no one who can give him verbal assistance at this time.
But Xiaonan has always had people supporting her!
"Pay attention to your identity, Jue."
Nagato's voice was cold, but those terrifying deep purple eyes were even colder, like a bottomless abyss that could swallow up everything in the world with just one glance.
Hearing this,
Jue suddenly changed his words,
He simply didn't have the confidence or courage to fight against the Rinnegan, not to mention that Obito guy wasn't even there yet!
We had to create some kind of mystery and play some kind of behind-the-scenes role in the first place, so why not just take over the broken Akatsuki organization openly and openly?
As a result, now I can't even get the most basic right to speak.
That guy Madara really chose a useless successor!
"Hey, but a prey that can defeat the boss sounds really interesting."
"By the way, Itachi, that guy seems to be of the same race as you."
"Compared between you and him, who is more powerful?"
"Mr. Kakuzu, I just told you to take over the bounty mission. Maybe the kid's body has been sent to the bounty center by now."
Hidan's voice, which has always been unruly, playfully broke the solemn atmosphere.
Although he has no feeling about being weak, he cannot admit the leader's failure.
"Shut up, are you allowed to speak?"
"If you talk too much, I'll kill you sooner or later?"
Kakuzu didn't show any polite attitude just because the other party said 'old man'.
The leader is the leader and cannot be questioned.
Moreover, crossing the sea to hunt an inconspicuous little guy would give him enough time to complete several tasks.
But the helpless Jue seized this provocative opportunity:
"Even if you are a leader, you have to have an explanation when your mission fails, right?"
"How could that guy escape from your hands?"
"After all, what you have is the Samsara Eye!"
As soon as these words came out, the whole scene became a little quiet.
really,
They need a reason.
Otherwise, how can he become the leader of these people?
Even Uchiha Itachi, who had separated himself in a corner, also cast his gaze at this moment.
【Uchiha Ara,】
[It’s really a distant name. 】
