Sunny and cheerful Konoha Genin

The drizzling rain seemed to never stop.

A figure drenched in the rain, led by the guards in front, walked to the green eaves.

This is a huge mansion that was designed by a famous designer and built with top-quality materials imported from other countries.

Wood from the Fire Kingdom, carvings from the Lightning Kingdom, rocks from the Rock Kingdom, gold ornaments from the Wind Kingdom, cement from the Water Kingdom.

Together, they built a courtyard that looks like a work of art in this gloomy rainy country.

The daimyo of the Rain Country lives in this courtyard.

Wow——!

The doors, made of bamboo and wood and thick paper, were pushed open one by one. Lamps were lit on both sides, ready to be refilled at any time, illuminating the road ahead.

Walking into it, the damp and cold chill is dispelled, replaced by a faint warmth and a sublime smell.

"Please, Hanzo-sama."

The guard turned politely and bowed ninety degrees: "The Daimyo is waiting for you inside."

"Ah."

Salamander Hanzo responded calmly and walked in.

Although he was wearing a gas mask, he could still smell the fragrance of makeup and the lingering scent of the women around him.

Behind one screen door after another, there are graceful and exquisite curves, faint shadows imprinted on the screens, and curious eyes looking at you from behind the screen doors.

As a ninja, Hanzo was very sensitive to these secret prying eyes.

But he didn't care. Instead, he kept his eyes straight ahead and continued moving forward slowly and firmly.

Wow——!

He walked to the last door.

The door slowly opened, revealing a completely different scene.

In the large space, lights flickered. The surrounding wallpaper was beige with Ukiyo-e paintings in gold lines. After Hanzo walked in, a puff of steam rose from the floor he was stepping on.

That's because there is a constant supply of heat from below, making this space as warm as spring in a paradise.

A fat and bloated figure was lying on a comfortable sofa made of exquisite cowhide. Next to him was a man with red lips and white teeth and a tall black hat on his head. When he saw Hanzo coming in, he quietly retreated to the side.

The Daimyo of the Rain Country and his favorite ministers!

"Hanzo, you're here."

The daimyo spoke in a vague tone, as if he had just woken up from a dream: "I should have asked you to sit down, but you said you were busy, so you can stand."

"..."

Salamander Hanzo remained silent and glanced around.

On the surface, there was no one else, but behind the screen, there were quite a few people's auras, and they were very nervous.

And with a weapon in hand.

"Ah."

Hanzo let out a light breath, it was hard to tell whether it was disappointment or ridicule.

"how?"

Daimyo's eyes sank slightly, and there was a hint of majesty on his fat face.

"You seem unhappy?"

His tone became higher and higher, and his voice echoed in this space!

"You're unhappy? I'm even happier than you!"

"I trusted you. I gave you the command of the ninjas. What did you do?"

"Iron Country, you just got a little advantage and then you withdrew."

"Kingdom of Wind, you came back with a crushing defeat."

"Now that Konoha is being invaded and news of defeat is coming from everywhere, what are you doing?"

"Anyway, I didn't see you do anything!"

"I'm worried! I'm anxious! I can only eat four meals a day now!"

"Hanzo!"

The daimyo shouted, "Is this the path to rise that you promised me, which would allow the Rain Country to have a dialogue with the five great nations?"

"Bagya Road!"

"You are an idiot! From today on, you will give up your command! Do you understand?!"

Daimyo tried hard to sit up from the sofa, but failed, so he just grunted twice and sat down again.

The favorite minister beside him understood and quickly stepped forward, saying in an overbearing manner:

"Did you hear that, Salamander Hanzo?"

"..."

The atmosphere froze, and the ninjas hiding behind the screen couldn't help but swallow their saliva.

"I understand."

Salamander Hanzo's face showed no joy or sadness, he just said calmly:

"Is this all your last words?"

"Be bold!"

The favorite minister screamed in fear, and even his voice became distorted.

"You really have evil intentions!"

The daimyo next to him was also furious, and the fat on his body swayed like waves.

"Take this..."

Before the favorite minister could finish his words, a line of blood appeared on his neck!

His face still maintained an expression of shock and anger, and just like that, his head fell to the ground!

In front of him, Hanzo slowly retracted the bloody sickle, his face still stained with splattered blood, and his eyes slowly looked towards the daimyo.

"Come...someone come!"

The daimyo shouted in fear, but no one around responded.

Ninjas behind the screen, you look at me and I look at you.

No one moved.

"Only Hanzo-sama can save this country."

Someone whispered something, and everyone felt relieved.

call--!

The lights went out and the house was plunged into darkness.

The rain got heavier.

……

in a small town.

"Ah, it's getting dark!"

Yahiko was holding a stack of new clothes and Konan was holding an umbrella, and they trotted all the way to the porridge shop.

"Phew! You're finally back!"

It was not until they entered the store that the two finally breathed a sigh of relief. Konan quickly put the umbrella at the door, while Yahiko walked in with a happy look on his face, holding the stack of clothes.

"Brother Ito, we are back!"

"Look what I brought back!"

"I'm home?"

Ito Toru, who was carrying rice, looked at the pile of clothes in Yahiko's hand with surprise: "This is..."

"The costumes that Xiaolan and I designed together!"

Yahiko first put it away carefully, then proudly took out a piece of clothing and unfolded it.

It was a long robe with a black background and red clouds. It looked very stylish, and Ito Toru's pupils shrank.

Although he didn't know much about Naruto, this costume...

“In the future, we want to set up an organization that will lead this country out of the gloomy darkness like the light at dawn!”

"I've already thought of a name, let's call her Xiao!"

It really is you!

Good guy!

Ito Toru was stunned.

"Hehe~ Very handsome!"

Seeing Ito Toru's surprised look, Yahiko also felt a little proud: "We have prepared a set for you and Sister Yukina! It's a special edition!"

"Oh, thank you so much."

Toru Ito felt mixed emotions, but he suppressed his shock and smiled as warmly as always.

“You guys have really good taste.”

"what?"

At this time, Yuina also came out, and when she saw the Akatsuki members' costumes that Yahiko was showing, her eyes lit up.

"This windbreaker is quite nice, where did you buy it?"

"hey-hey!"

Yahiko scratched his head embarrassedly: "We designed it ourselves!"

He explained his philosophy about the Akatsuki organization again, and Yukina nodded in agreement: "Very good! I'll take the clothes. If you run into trouble in the future, you can come to Konoha to submit a request."

"Okay! I will!"

Yahiko was very happy and Konan also had an innocent smile on her face.

Yuina put on her windbreaker and stood in front of the mirror to admire her beauty.

Except for Toru Ito, who was worried but trying to force a smile, everyone was happy.
