Konoha: This Sasuke is not too cold

In the Kingdom of Rain, in Akatsuki's base.

"Oops, I heard that you were almost killed this time."

Scorpion and Deidara were walking out when they met Kakuzu coming back carrying Hidan.

"Shut up, Huangmao"

Although his body was severely injured and temporarily unable to move, Hidan's mouth could still move.

With Kakuzu on his shoulders, Hidan would not give in when it came to talking.

"Yeah, yeah, it's really miserable." Deidara glanced at Hidan with a joking smile on his face.

"Okay, Deidara, it's time to go." Fei Liuhu interrupted the conversation between the two with a hoarse voice.

Without saying a word, Kakuzu carried Hidan and continued walking inside.

In the last explosion, Kakuzu and Kisame were protected by Itachi, but Hidan actually withstood it head-on.

All the bones in his body were broken, and there were dozens of bone-deep wounds all over his body.

Kakuzu only made some simple stitches for him and returned with Hidan.

Anyway, Hidan's vitality is strong, so he can't die. As long as he has energy replenishment, his injuries can be recovered on his own.

"Hey, that hateful brat, I will definitely sacrifice him to the Evil God next time we meet!"

Being the most injured one, Hidan was unhappy.

Kakuzu rolled his eyes and ignored him.

Don’t you have any idea about your level? I was cut off by someone with a knife, and the output was zero during the whole process. It’s really...

"Kakuzu, where are Itachi and Kisame?" Konan walked slowly from the front.

"Back to Konoha, where is Zetsu from that intern?" Kakuzu's tone was not very good. This kind of betrayal of his teammates made him very unhappy.

"They went out to find out information about Uchiha Sasuke."

Xiaonan frowned. When she mentioned the mysterious masked man, Xiaonan was very worried. She always felt that there was something wrong with that man.

"Really?" Hearing this, Kakuzu didn't say much and continued walking inside with Hidan on his shoulders.

Watching Kakuzu walk away, Konan lowered his eyebrows in thought. Uchiha Sasuke's strength was too exaggerated for his age anyway.

She knew the strength of the members of the organization, and it was precisely because of this that she was surprised.

If we hadn't happened to meet each other in Tang Country this time, we might have lost two members, but...

"Is he the first to have a conflict with Sasuke?"

The figure with the orange mask flashed in Xiaonan's mind, and she became increasingly uneasy.

According to the situation reported by Uchiha Itachi, they would not have had a conflict in Yuno Country, but the masked man got into trouble with Sasuke for some unknown reason, and that was what happened.

After thinking about the relationship between Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Sasuke, and then thinking about the guy who called himself Uchiha Madara, Konan felt a little headache.

Konan didn't want the Akatsuki organization to provoke a powerful enemy in vain. Even though Nagato was very strong, his health was also in bad shape.

"Perhaps we can contact Uchiha Sasuke in private." A thought suddenly flashed through his mind, and Konan raised his head.

Uchiha Itachi was dragged into the Akatsuki organization by the masked man. Each of these two people was more difficult to see through than the other, and Konan was very worried.

And Uchiha Sasuke must have deep conflicts with the two of them. Perhaps, this can be a help.

"Furthermore, was the genocide of the Uchiha clan really the work of Itachi Uchiha alone?"

Konan believed that if he told Uchiha Sasuke the identity of the masked man, he would definitely make his own judgment.

She didn't want to take advantage of anyone, but it would be a good thing for her if Uchiha Sasuke could find out the depth of that mysterious man.

"Click"

Pushing open the door of a closed room, Xiao Nan walked in and closed the door smoothly.

The space inside the house is large, but the light is a bit dim.

On a special chair, a thin red-haired young man had his head lowered. Behind him, a behemoth could be vaguely seen. On the behemoth, a black light chakra metal rod was connected to the young man's body, which looked extremely strange.

"How is the situation?" Hearing the sound of the door opening, Nagato raised his head and looked at Xiaonan, his voice was a little hoarse.

"It's no different from what Itachi Uchiha said, Hidan was seriously injured."

"Really?" Nagato closed his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Nagato, I have an idea," Konan said slowly.

"You want to win over Uchiha Sasuke?" Nagato raised his head and looked at Konan.

"It's just a test," Xiaonan nodded noncommittally.

The two have been together for a long time, and they naturally understand each other very well. They can understand each other's meaning with just one sentence and one eye.

"Then who should do this?"

Nagato pondered for a moment, then raised his head and looked at Konan.

"I'll go there myself"

"No, he is very dangerous." Nagato narrowed his eyes and spoke in a low tone.

Although he did not witness the battle, being able to defeat four members of the Akatsuki organization was enough to show the danger of Sasuke Uchiha.

"You know, I don't really trust them."

Konan's tone was calm. From the beginning to the end, Nagato was the only person Konan truly trusted.

"Is it worth it? He's just a child."

Nagato was very puzzled by Konan's decision. In Nagato's view, although Uchiha Sasuke was very strong, he was not worthy of such attention. After all, he had the so-called Eyes of God and had killed a ninja demigod. .

No matter what the Akatsuki organization becomes, he is confident to suppress it. Even the man who calls himself Uchiha Madara only makes Nagato a little afraid.

"Just because he is just a child." Xiaonan looked deeply at Nagato with a complicated expression.

Yahiko's death and Nagato's current appearance made Konan change a lot. She saw many things clearly and bid farewell to the innocent self she once was.

However, Nagato seems to have been immersed in hatred over the years, and nothing has changed except that he has become more extreme.

After killing Sansho Hanzo, Nagato didn't get over his hatred at all, but fell deeper into it.

The guilt and self-blame for her companions made Xiaonan change a lot. She just waited quietly, hoping that Nagato would change one day and find a new path to peace.

Instead of executing the tailed beast weapon plan mentioned by the masked man.

Konan has always felt that there is something else hidden behind this so-called "Tailed Beast Weapon Plan". It is an instinctive intuition, but Nagato seems to have no doubt about it.

Xiaonan couldn't change Nagato's extreme thinking. She could only wait quietly on the sidelines to make up for the guilt she felt towards her companions.

"If that person is really Uchiha Madara, then as one of the founders of the Ninja Village era, will he really need their power?"

This has always been the most puzzling thing in Xiaonan's mind, but Nagato seems to have never thought about this. He believes more in the power that the Samsara Eye brings to him.

However, how long can Nagato's body support those eyes?

"I will be back soon, you have to protect yourself." Although he is not as powerful as Nagato, Xiaonan still told him so.

"I understand." Nagato slowly closed his eyes and said nothing.

Since Xiaonan wants to do it, let her do it, and Nagato doesn't want to stop it, because he has absolute confidence in his own power.
