The land of rain.
The sky was obscured by dark clouds.
The rain kept falling.
It seems like the day never stops.
On the street below the steel industrial building, everyone is holding a variety of umbrellas in their hands. Although the street is small, it is not crowded.
Yuyin Village.
One is located under a mysterious and intricate steel monster in an abandoned factory in a populated area.
In a dark underground cave.
The huge brown tree roots are coiled up like a wild python, extending downwards in circles, like a modern spiral staircase.
Hanging from the huge tree roots, they were wrapped in white cloth like mummies. There were an unknown number of unawakened Bai Jue.
At the bottom of the darkness and depth.
Gaara, the one-tailed jinchuriki who was sealed and deprived of his senses and feelings, Yukito, the two-tailed jinchuriki, Murasaki, the four-tailed jinchuriki, and Han, the five-tailed jinchuriki, stood neatly on the four-tailed jinchuriki made of steel. Inside the square coffin, the coffin is located on a flat altar.
It was extremely dark all around.
In front of it is the seemingly trembling ten-tailed outer demon statue. It seems to be tireless, opening its huge mouth stiffly, exposing the wooden gums above the mouth, with nine closed eyes arranged symmetrically, and the wooden stakes behind it are like countless The arms are generally spread out and stiff in the air.
Its entire huge body is like an ascetic beast, sitting in the muddy loess. A vine somewhere behind it is connected to a huge tree root above this hidden area.
This area seems to have become darker due to the presence of the heretic demons, like the entrance to hell.
Below the altar steps.
Wearing a tiger-print mask and transforming into a shawl with long hair, Obito stood quietly in front of the altar. He was followed by Scorpion, who was also wearing a Hokage robe but was hidden in the red amber, and a tall man with shoulders like pitcher plants. Absolutely.
"Where's Deidara?"
Xie looked around, looking at the Jinchuriki on the altar in front of him, and asked curiously.
Obito replied in a hoarse voice:
"His current strength is far from enough to stand here. Forcibly performing the Nine Dragons Phantom Seal with us will exhaust the chakra in his body and eventually kill him."
The implication.
That would be to let Deidara take White Zetsu for fun. It would be best if Deidara could interfere with the surrounding teams who came to look for the Jinchuuriki. Even if he couldn't interfere, then they would have backup anyway.
Scorpion immediately stopped asking.
He knew Deidara's strength. He had been leading this talkative man in the past few years. In fact, as long as Deidara was given another year, Deidara would be able to stand here with them.
As the topic ends.
Deidara and Obito stopped talking.
Hei Zetsu, who had been silent all this time, looked around and looked at the deserted Akatsuki organization. He couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. He always felt that something was wrong.
But I can't tell what the problem is.
Mainly because Hei Jue felt that.
The population of the Akatsuki organization...
It shouldn't be just that.
Otherwise, the two Yumu people and Lao Zi who were captured very early should have been absorbed by the heretic demons long ago, and they would not have been dragged together until today, and they also found ways to use certain strategies.
It's good not to do this kind of thing, but once it is done, it is easy for something to happen.
Black Zetsu fell into deep thought.
If Hidan and Kakuzu really defected to Bai Yu's side...
When Black Zetsu thought of the Uchiha boy with short dark red hair and a pretty good face, he immediately gritted his teeth.
If Hidan Kakuzu is really bewitched by Bai Yu and rebel against the Akatsuki organization.
What Bai Yu did was as if he was deliberately targeting himself and the Xiao organization.
From the time when the Akatsuki organization was preparing to fight for ghost friends, perhaps that guy has been eyeing Akatsuki for a long time.
Hei Jue frowned. Apart from Onigao, Itachi was also the most suitable candidate for them to join the Akatsuki organization. As a result, of these two guys, one was snatched away by Bai Yu in front of him, and the other was brainwashed by Bai Yu early on.
This might be...
This is the main reason why the Akatsuki organization's personnel are declining.
If it weren't for the dwindling population of the organization and Payne's inability to take action, Bai Yu really wouldn't be able to stay.
Black Jue sighed and looked at Obito with some resentment. If Obito hadn't been weak, Bai Yu wouldn't have been able to jump around for so long.
Obito felt the strange gaze, and he was so sensitive that he immediately looked sideways, and saw Black Zetsu immediately retracting his gaze and standing upright, for fear of offending this important and indispensable chess piece in the plan.
Obito ignored Black Zetsu and looked away.
Black Zetsu sighed secretly, thinking inwardly, why did Madara find such a thing to inherit his great cause?
snap——
at this time.
Circling up, the light footsteps of a woman came from the tree root stairs connecting this area. Xiaonan, who was wearing a fire cloud robe with a curvy figure and a white paper flower on her head, with a mature and soft face, walked slowly to the altar. At the edge, the red lips opened slightly and said:
"It's time to start."
Obito, Scorpion, and Zetsu all stepped forward.
Until Xiaonan is in position.
The four people formed a seal with their hands, and the four of them jointly released chakra as thick as the deep sea.
In an instant, the entire underground secret base was shrouded in two layers of sealing blue lines, both inside and outside.
These lines instantly illuminate the entire base, making the area look like an illusion.
Do it all.
Black Zetsu breathed a sigh of relief.
So far.
They completed the first step.
Obito blinked slightly and cast his gaze towards the Jinchuuriki on the altar. He was thinking about the remaining tailed beasts. There were only five tailed beasts left to open the door to the new world.
Lin...wait for me!
Thinking about it, Obito closed his eyes and prayed in his heart.
…
…
The land of rain.
The originally heavy rain suddenly became lighter. On the streets of the steel city, a few pedestrians holding umbrellas looked up in surprise at the ever-dark sky:
"Strange, today is not the day for angels to pray to God."
"It's a bit weird, but it doesn't have any impact on us."
Passersby went home one after another.
Once it stops raining, it means that they have the right to rest today. This is a rule set by the Angel long ago.
As the rain stopped.
Pubs and restaurants in the commercial area that were originally open have all put up foreign brands.
border.
On a mountain peak that is not shrouded in dark clouds.
"Bai Yu, this rain...will it really stop?"
When Chiyo thought that Gaara was suffering inexplicable pain, he couldn't help but ask Bai Yu who was standing in front of everyone and had been observing the rain.
The words just fell.
Bai Yu, who had been observing the border area of the Kingdom of Rain with Kagura's inner eye, suddenly raised his eyebrows, and a picture of the rain gradually getting smaller in the Kingdom of Rain emerged in the spiritual world.
"The rain is tapering off."
Bai Yu took a deep breath, with a slightly solemn expression, and continued:
"According to Uchiha's observation of the Rain Country, this country that rains all year round will stop raining one day every week. It should not have reached that day of the week, but the rain still stops at this moment. What is contained in this, it goes without saying."
Ohnoki, who was floating around, said solemnly:
"But we have no choice. It seems that the other party already knows that we will definitely arrive here today. Now, no matter whether it rains or not, we have to enter the Kingdom of Rain and reach the area they want us to reach."
Kakashi stood aside and nodded, staring at the Kingdom of Rain in front of him, which was still shrouded in black clouds. He suddenly felt uneasy in his heart.
He has rarely felt this way as he has grown up, even when he faced an enemy more powerful than himself, he never felt this way.
Followed.
Kakashi felt a little hesitant in his heart. When he had felt this way in the past... it was when he couldn't save Obito... and when he had no choice but to hurt Lin.
"This trip is very dangerous. The danger may exceed our previous estimates."
Kakashi stared in the direction of the Land of Rain, forced to calm down his inner emotions, and expressed his opinions in a deep voice.
Bai Yu said helplessly:
"No matter how dangerous it is, you have to go in and rescue the Jinchuuriki. Captain Kakashi, please draw up a scroll asking for help. Once you enter the Land of Rain, there should be no chance to ask for help from outside."
Kakashi nodded, took out the intelligence seal scroll from his body, and wrote a message for help. Since Bai Yu asked him to ask for help, the only person they asked for help was Jiraiya, who was in Konoha and was dealing with official business and was ready to rescue him.
I had already discussed this with Jiraiya before coming.
Once the information scroll for help is received, Jiraiya will lead the second rescue team to the location written in the information scroll to start the rescue.
Not only Jiraiya will support him when the time comes.
The elite ninjas from the ANBU of Sunagakure Village, the elite ninjas from the ANBU of Iwagakure Village, and Shisui from Uchiha Village will all become the second echelon rescue force.
At first Bai Yu wanted to raid the Kingdom of Rain.
Now it seems.
The abacus is empty.
Ohnoki and Chiyo looked at each other and tried their best to adjust their mental state to the best. In the next battle, they must have the courage and determination to die.
Everyone gets ready.
Bai Yu raised his head and looked in the direction of the Land of Rain. The rain had stopped, the air had become a little clearer, and even the dark clouds in the sky seemed to be thinner, as if they were deliberately prepared to welcome their arrival.
"lets go!"
Bai Yu took a deep breath, gave the final instructions, and said solemnly:
"Since they have prepared traps in advance, we can't sit still and wait for death. Let's get together and let's discuss the tactics one last time."
Onoki, Chiyo, and Kakashi gathered together.
Bai Yu squinted in the direction of the Land of Rain and spoke in a deep voice, predicting the trap that the Akatsuki organization might have planned, and repeated some details of the Samsara Eye.
"Just do what we discussed."
After Bai Yu summarized the arrangement, he immediately handed a bag of flying thunder god kunai to Kakashi, then looked around the three of them, smiled helplessly and warned:
"Everyone, I hope that after the mission is over, we can return to Konoha together. I hope... the mission can be completed smoothly."
The nervousness of several people was slightly relaxed, they all laughed and chimed in a few words, and then stood up.
Kakashi followed the original plan, formed seals with his hands, channeled his team of ninja dogs, and then assigned the Flying Thunder God Kunai to the ninja dogs, and seriously warned:
"Siba, you are responsible for placing the Flying Thunder God Kunai in the area east of the Hidden Rain Village."
"Bisk, you are in charge of the south!"
"Aquino, you are in charge of the middle area!"
"Gluk, you are in charge of the west side!"
"Wihei, you are in charge of the northern area!"
"Urusi, Blue, and Parker, the three of you are responsible for the area from the center to the edge of the Rain Ninja Village. Each partner is responsible for the placement of two kunai!"
After Kakashi's arrangements were completed, a total of eight ninja dogs received their respective kunai and carried them in the special ninja tool bags on their backs, and took the lead in flying towards the Land of Rain.
Bai Yu looked in the direction of the eight ninja dogs and couldn't help but sigh. Kakashi's eight ninja dogs come in various varieties.
It can be seen that Kakashi has experienced his father's suicide, Obito's death, and Lin's death, and he is still able to get out of the shadow in his heart. The companionship of these animals also has a certain contribution.
"Set off!"
Bai Yu did not hesitate any longer. After the ninja dogs ran down the mountain, he opened Kagura's inner eye and covered it directly over the Land of Rain, and led the team to fly down the mountain.
As for letting the ninja dog take the lead.
It's because if something unexpected happens, as long as they are not targeted by Pain, Kakashi can channel them back to a safe area as soon as possible.
And letting the Ninja Dogs disperse the Flying Thunder God Kunai that Bai Yu made during this period within the Rain Country and on the border is to prevent the Akatsuki organization from using a barrier to seal off the Ninja Village and the country, causing Bai Yu and the others to be shut down and beaten.
Although now it seems that they are the one letting the dog out.
snap——
Bai Yu and his group stepped on the muddy road, and the mud under their feet spattered around.
They walked through a rare forest on the border of the Kingdom of Rain, and finally arrived in front of a towering steel building.
The steel building standing in this sparse forest is like a mountain peak, isolating this road, and the entire Rain Kingdom has this style.
But this kind of steel building is not airtight on the outside. There is an arch in the middle guardrail area that can pass through.
The caravans traveling through the ninja world, as well as the passing ninjas from other villages, all pass through places that seem airtight but are actually areas where they can travel together.

Because Payne and Konan cleaned up the ninja system within the Land of Rain and carried out reforms, the feeling of Hidden Rain Village to outsiders is still the same as before.
Neither the caravans passing by nor the ninjas stopping to rest in other villages noticed anything unusual in Yu Ninja Village.
Including now, Bai Yu did not explicitly say that Yu Ninja Village is the headquarters of the Akatsuki organization, and Onoki, Chiyo, Kakashi and others did not connect this small place with the headquarters of the Akatsuki organization.
It's not that Bai Yu didn't want to tell them.
at first.
Bai Yu wanted to sell this secret as information, and then sell it at a high price.
If they arrive here this time and can return safely, and Onoki, Chiyo and Kakashi do not discover that this is the headquarters of the Akatsuki organization, then this information can still be used to sell it at a high price.
Entering the steel building that looks like an industrial monster, a depressing atmosphere hits everyone's hearts.
When you reach the end of the steel building, you can see a river that looks like the sea. Countless similar steel buildings tower into the clouds as if they are standing on the sea.
In the middle area of these buildings, there are still rocks. This strange terrain seems as if it should not exist in the central area of the ninja world.
The sky is dark.
The rain brewing from the dark clouds in the sky seems to be falling at any time, while the river surrounded by steel buildings on the ground flows quietly.
Thanks to the advanced drainage system of the Land of Rain, no matter how hard it rains or how long it continues, these water resources will eventually pass through various river branches, just like the heart of the ninja world, filtering the blood and transporting it to other ninja villages.
"Next, cheer up."
Bai Yu's words fell to the ground.
He led everyone and ran straight towards the White Zetsu base marked by Kakuzu.
