In the hazy Yuyin Village, the pain of the war has not receded.

On the drizzling streets, a group of Amegakure ninjas were patrolling.

"This damn weather, it feels like the village is crying." A ninja suddenly said.

"Tomorrow is Sunday." Another ninja pointed out.

"It's such a frightening power. One person can change the weather..." someone said with emotion.

"Stop talking! Don't talk about that adult at will." His companion quickly interrupted him.

Several people present were silent.

After a long time, a ninja said: "Anyway, I still have to thank this gentleman. If it weren't for his toughness, Yugakure would have suffered again in this war."

Several ninjas nodded in agreement, raised their heads and looked at the tall tower in the center of Yugakure with admiration.

That's where their "god", Pain, is.

……

In the tower, in a candlelit room, a red-haired ninja was sitting in a wheelchair, lowering his head in deep thought.

"Nagato, what are you thinking?"

A cold voice came, and Xiaonan walked into the room.

"Nothing, how is the situation in Yuyin Village?"

Nagato turned his head and looked at his old friend who had always supported him.

She has blue-purple hair tied into a bun and wears a light blue paper flower. She has a delicate face and lavender eye shadow on her face. Her warm eyes in the past have been replaced by indifference.

"The situation in Yuyin Village has basically stabilized. There are no longer any people who oppose us. I will give them guidance as an angel." Xiaonan said calmly.

Listening to the other party's indifferent tone, Nagato sighed inaudibly. If possible, he hoped that he would be the only one to bear all this.

"The next step is to vigorously develop the Akatsuki organization. Kakuzu is working hard to earn funds, and Zetsu is helping us find useful manpower."

Nagato emphasized that Yugakure's stability was all to hide the existence of the "Akatsuki" organization.

"When the time is right, it will be time for our plan to be launched! I will inherit Yahiko's will and complete what he has not completed!"

Nagato stared straight ahead, as if staring at something. One day, he would make the Great Ninja Village feel the pain.

Xiaonan hesitated to speak. She didn't understand whether this approach was correct. Is this really what Yahiko wanted? But no matter what, she will accompany Nagato.

"Don't worry, I am the incarnation of God. As long as I have these eyes, no one can stop me!"

Nagato slightly lifted his red hair, revealing the covered purple samsara eyes.

"By the way, Zetsu recently discovered a rebel nin of Kirigakure - Loquat Juzo. He is the user of the decapitating sword. He defected a few days ago. Akatsuki needs his power. I have arranged for Scorpion to go."

Although Nagato is the leader of the organization, Konan has always been responsible for personnel transfer.

Xiaonan nodded, indicating that he understood.

"Nagato, Madara has disappeared again."

Thinking of the recent personnel situation, Xiaonan reported to Nagato.

"Don't worry about him, Zetsu told me he went to Konoha to check the situation."

"Nagato, Madara is not trustworthy."

Konan looked at Nagato worriedly. He had always disliked Uchiha Madara, who was mysterious and elusive. He suddenly appeared in front of several people and used some rhetoric to seduce Nagato...

"I know that I am just using his power. Neither he nor anyone else in the organization is a companion worthy of our trust. They are just tools to accomplish our goals!"

Nagato's eyes were cold, he had no trust in Madara or Zetsu, and no one else in the organization agreed with his ideals, and they were not worth mentioning.

"As long as I have power, they can't betray me!"

-

In a corner of the ninja world, Juuzang Loquat is walking on the road carrying a sword.

"Who?"

Loquat Juuzang suddenly stopped and reached for the decapitating sword behind his back with his right hand.

‘Are they Kirigakure’s pursuit troops? They really can’t get away from them anywhere. ’

Loquat Juuzang was furious, he thought that he must teach the other party a profound lesson.

"Here it is!"

A white human figure suddenly emerged from the ground not far from him, pointing at Juuzang and shouting.

‘Does it feel wrong? ’

Loquat Juuzang was shocked. When did this weird thing get so close?

‘No, he was talking to someone else, someone else! ’

With his thoughts flying, Loquat Juuzang instantly realized that the other party had an accomplice. He instantly pulled out the decapitating knife and placed it across his chest, staring coldly at the distant trees.

"It's so easy for me to find!"

A figure walked out of the woods. A short, stooped, strange ninja wearing a black hood and a black red cloud robe appeared in front of Loquat Juuzang.

"Loquat Juuzang, right?"

The other party asked the question in his own way.

"You are not from Kirigakure, why are you interested in my bounty?"

Noticing that the strange white figure disappeared into the ground after the person in front of him appeared, Loquat Juzo made a simple judgment.

He put the decapitating sword on his right shoulder and asked with fierce eyes.

"The leader asked me to recruit you into the organization. Now it seems that your strength may be in question."

The strange ninja took off the hood on his head, revealing his face. His hair was divided into multiple parts, and half of his face was covered by a black mask.

He looked at the tattered clothes on Loquat Juuzang's face, and there was some dissatisfaction in his voice.

'organize? ’

Loquat Juzo was puzzled by the information revealed in the other party's words, and randomly turned into rage.

"You underestimate me!"

Loquat Juzo jumped up high, holding a big sword and slashed at the ninja in front of him.

The broadsword looked at the ground and made a shallow crater. Large amounts of smoke and dust rose up, but there was no trace of the previous ninja.

"Since you made the first move, let's test your quality by the way. If you are not strong enough..."

The voice came from behind, and the strange ninja had appeared behind Loquat Shizang.

"Suna clone? Are you Sunagakure's ninja? It doesn't matter, just wait for death!"

Loquat Juuzang keenly noticed the drifting sand and said casually and disdainfully.

"Fog Hidden Technique!"

A misty voice came, and before he knew it, the venue was filled with mist, and Loquat Juuzang disappeared before his eyes.

"Successful!"

With a powerful horizontal slash, Loquat Juzo suddenly appeared behind the strange ninja and swung the sword in his hand hard.

"I'll split you in half with this blow!"

Loquat Juzo had a cruel look on his face.

clang!

The sound of metal knocking came, and Loquat Juuzang was shocked to find that his sword was blocked by the metal tail.

'Tail? ’

Loquat Juuzang's secret path was not good, so he took advantage of the situation and jumped back.

The head of the ninja in front of him suddenly turned 180°, and the black mask parted from the middle up and down, revealing dense black nozzles.

The thin silver needle spit out from his mouth. When there was no time to send it out, Juuzang Loquat raised the big knife in his hand and blocked the silver needle in front of him. The purple light from the silver needle made Juuzang's heart sink.

'poisonous! ’

Loquat Juuzang held his breath and concentrated. If the weapons are all poisonous, they will not be injured!

A chuckle came from the mouth of the ninja in front of him. With a wave of his hand, the auspicious cloud robe on his body was thrown aside.

‘Is it a puppet? ’

Loquat Juuzang's pupils shrank, the object in front of him was on all fours, the grimace on his back opened his mouth, and an iron tail stretched out from it, with the tip hanging in the air towards Juuzang.

The puppet stretched out his left hand, revealing the machine cannon on his left arm. After a buzzing sound, a cylinder was fired from his left arm. The purple poisonous smoke pushed the cylinder, drawing a large arc in the air, towards Loquat Ten. Zang flew away.

Loquat Juzo rushed forward sideways, and the cylinder passed by and suddenly exploded in the air.

Purple silver needles shot out in all directions, approaching Juzo from multiple angles.

The heavy broadsword felt light in Juuzang's hands, and the poisonous needles were knocked down one after another as the long sword flew up and down.

"Physical skills are pretty good."

A chuckle came from the puppet, followed by a simple comment.

Loquat Juuzang was angry, and the other party's condescending words made him unhappy.

With a loud roar, Loquat Juzo rushed straight towards the puppet, and all the poisonous needles he sprayed were deflected by it.

The spiked long tail was swung out by the puppet, blocking Loquat Juuzang's movement route on a large scale.

"This kind of thing can't stop me!"

A sneer appeared at the corner of Loquat Juuzang's mouth, he aimed at a point on the long tail, and swung his decapitating sword fiercely.

The long knife collided hard with the iron tail, and then there was a breaking sound, and a certain section of the iron tail broke from it.

"How can your tail compete with the strength of my decapitating sword!"

After slashing the iron tail with a big knife twice in succession, Loquat Juuzang successfully split the iron tail, and then hit the puppet's ghost back with a vertical slash, causing huge cracks.

‘So hard? ’

Loquat Juuzang's face looked a little ugly. Although the force of his attack was not smooth due to the short distance, it was somewhat beyond his expectation that the sword did not chop the puppet.

"How dare you break my puppet!"

An angry voice came from in front of him, and the puppet in front of him disappeared in a burst of smoke, revealing a young man with red hair and a handsome face.

"So young?"

The other person's face was too immature, which made Loquat Juuzang feel embarrassed.

"I want you to experience my supreme art. Don't worry, you will become a part of my art soon!"

The young ninja in front of him took out a scroll with a fanatical expression, placed it on the ground, and began to form seals in his hand.

‘Is it a new puppet? Is it a trump card? ’

The meaning in the other party's words was heard by Loquat Juuzang, and his face became a little tense. Although he didn't use his full strength just now, it was no longer difficult to deal with.

"Stop it, Scorpion!"

A voice suddenly sounded from the side, interrupting the two people who were focusing on the battle.

I saw a strange human figure, half black and half white, slowly emerging from the ground.

"What are you?"

Another thing suddenly appeared around him. Loquat Juuzang was a little nervous. He didn't feel anything twice in a row. This was a very dangerous sign.

"I am Zetsu."

After Zetsu nodded slightly to Loquat Juzo, he turned to the red-haired young man.

"Scorpion, the leader asked you to recruit the other party. Do you want to question the leader's decision?"

Xie didn't explain or defend this, he just stopped the sealing movement in his hand.

"I'm only asking once, Loquat Juuzang, do you want to join our organization 'Akatsuki'?"

The red-haired young man's face was indifferent, and his eyes were cold.

"What kind of organization is 'Akatsuki'?"

Loquat Juzo also temporarily stopped what he was doing. The opponent had a large number of people, and the battle was not good for him at this time.

"Akatsuki is a rebel ninja organization, and there are rebel ninjas like you in the middle. As long as you work for Akatsuki, the leader will protect you, and the organization will also provide you with information, so that you don't have to worry about Kirigakure's pursuit. "

Zetsu on the side responded.

"Okay, I also want to see what 'Xiao' looks like."

After a brief hesitation, Loquat Juzo decided to join in and give it a try. At this time, he really needed a shelter to avoid Kirigakure's pursuing troops.

The red-haired ninja showed displeasure, put away the scroll in his hand, and picked up the black red cloud robe on the ground.

"This is Sunagakure's rebellious ninja - the Scorpion of Red Sand."

Zetsu introduced to Loquat Juzo from the side.

The Scorpion of Red Sand, the genius of Sunagakure, Loquat Juzo had heard of this person, but he did not expect to be so young and so... powerful.

"Then, just follow Xie, he will take you back to see the leader."

As soon as he finished speaking, Jue dived into the ground and disappeared.

'What a strange guy. ’ Loquat Shizang thought.

"What kind of person is the leader?"

"A...unparalleled strong man."

Scorpion's face was a little complicated. After giving his reply, he stopped talking and turned around and ran away.

‘Incomparable…? ’

Loquat Juuzang thought about it for a few times, then chased after Scorpion who was walking away.
