Reborn wind shadow: Attack the country of fire in the beginning

#231 - Chapter 231: The Five Kage Conference: Good and Evil (13)

Rain Country.

Under the torrential downpour of rain.

Although the weather was terrible, Yahiko, as the leader of the Akatsuki, was in a good mood.

Because for the first time in the ninja world, thanks to his efforts, it was truly beginning to move towards peace.

After confirming that the letter from the Konoha Anbu was fine and indeed came from his never-before-seen senior apprentice, the Akatsuki, led by Yahiko, made its first contact with Amegakure under the guidance of the Konoha Anbu.

The result was delightful to Yahiko.

As Yahiko's former object of admiration, Hanzō of the Salamander also showed a keen attitude towards peace, willing to reach some kind of reconciliation with the Akatsuki, granting the Akatsuki a recognized specific status in Amegakure, and working together for the peace of Amegakure.

And the Five Kage Summit was an attempt by both sides.

Everything seemed to be moving in a good direction, but soon, the arrival of a letter broke this peace.

Inside the cave that served as the Akatsuki base, Yahiko looked at the letter from the Fourth Kazekage of Sunagakure with a stunned expression.

He had originally held expectations for this letter, because not long ago, he had personally written a letter, which was delivered to Sunagakure by an Akatsuki ninja.

In this letter, Yahiko earnestly described his dream of peace for the ninja world, and sincerely expressed his hope that the war would end.

He originally thought that Rasa would be able to understand him.

After all, although the two sides had only been in contact twice, Yahiko could feel that Rasa also hated war.

But unexpectedly, the reply contained only two words personally written by the Kazekage: Good and Evil!

These two words directly stunned everyone in the Akatsuki's high command.

"What does this mean?"

Everyone looked at each other, completely confused.

Everyone naturally knew these two words, but this was completely different from what they had expected. What exactly did the Kazekage mean?

At this moment, Konan, who always thought things through more maturely, suddenly said slowly.

"Could it be that Rasa is reminding us of something?"

"Why?"

Everyone's eyes fell on Konan.

Among the three leaders of the entire Akatsuki, Yahiko was too naive, Nagato was a silent gourd, and only the precocious Konan could be considered to have some ideas.

"I..."

This was of course Konan's intuition, because she clearly remembered that when the three of them met Rasa not long ago, they had mentioned Yahiko's shortcomings, which was that Yahiko was too naive, but she couldn't say this out loud.

She thought for a while, recalling the recent events, and soon had a flash of inspiration.

"Is Rasa reminding us that Amegakure's purpose in recruiting us this time is not that simple?"

Konan's words immediately awakened everyone.

Because during this period, with the increase in contact between the Akatsuki and Amegakure, the opinion of Hanzō of the Salamander, the leader, was conveyed from Amegakure.

Amegakure wanted to accept the Akatsuki as a member of Amegakure.

For this reason, Hanzō of the Salamander personally invited Yahiko, the leader, to go to Amegakure.

This was obviously a very risky thing, but Yahiko agreed.

"Konan, I know your worries, but this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for us to strive for peace!"

"But...?"

"Don't worry, I'm not a fool either.

This time, Nagato and I will take people there.

With Nagato here, even if Amegakure takes any action against us, we can still escape."

Yahiko's words did alleviate some of the worries in Konan's heart, because only Konan, who had lived with him since childhood, knew the terrifying power contained in Nagato's eyes.

"What about Rasa's side?"

"Don't worry, I'll write another letter to Rasa."

"Okay!"

––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

Time passed quickly, and two days passed.

It was time for Yahiko and Hanzō of the Salamander to meet as agreed.

"Don't worry!"

After comforting the worried Konan again, Yahiko looked at Kyūsuke and Daibutsu behind Konan.

"I'll leave things here to you for now."

After saying that, Yahiko and Nagato led a group of Akatsuki members, their figures disappearing into the heavy rain.

Time passed by minute by minute.

In the dim stone cave, the candlelight flickered.

Reflecting Konan's somewhat worried face.

Seeing this, Kyūsuke, who had always been secretly in love with Konan, knew that he would never be able to win Konan's heart.

But even so, he still didn't want to see Konan looking so worried, and stepped forward to comfort her.

"Don't worry, Konan, Yahiko and the others will be fine.

With Yahiko and everyone's strength, even if they encounter an ambush, they can definitely escape."

What he said was true, but Konan still showed a trace of worry on her face, especially when she thought of the two words on the scroll that Rasa had sent them, and Rasa's evaluation of Yahiko.

Seeing Konan still looking so anxious, Kyūsuke could only say to Daibutsu beside him.

"You think so too, right, Daibutsu!?"

But at this moment, for some reason, Daibutsu also felt a deep sense of unease in his heart.

Just then, a flash of lightning suddenly flashed outside, illuminating the sky, and a figure covered in blood, wearing an Akatsuki ninja uniform, appeared in everyone's sight.

"N... Not good, we were ambushed by Hanzō and the Konoha Anbu, the leader and the others are trapped..."

At this moment, Konan's face turned pale, without a trace of blood.

If it was just Amegakure, Konan could still remain calm, but at this moment, she heard the name of the Konoha Anbu.

"!!!"

In other words, all of this was actually planned by Konoha behind the scenes?

But wasn't that Hokage also the teacher's disciple?

And isn't the teacher also in Konoha now?

Konan's brain also became chaotic, full of disbelief.

But looking at her blood-stained companion in front of her, she had no choice but to believe it.

Daibutsu reacted the fastest.

"Konan, you stay here and prepare to support us.

I'll take people to support the leader and the others immediately."

"I'm going too!"

Kyūsuke and Daibutsu immediately led the Akatsuki ninjas in the base into the heavy rain.

Looking at her departing companions, Konan was also a little at a loss.

Just as she was about to ask her companion what was happening ahead.

Her eyes fell on the ninja who came to report the news, and the lightning flashed, illuminating his cheeks.

There was no panic on it, only a trace of sinister smile of a scheme succeeding.

At this moment, Konan suddenly remembered something, her face turned pale, and her body began to retreat rapidly, but it was too late.

She felt a sharp pain coming from behind her.

"What!?"

Konan looked back in disbelief, and saw behind her those members who were originally companions, all showing terrible smiles on their faces.

In this instant, Konan finally understood the true meaning of the two words that Rasa had sent them.

So the Akatsuki had already been infiltrated by the enemy to this point?

Konan could no longer tell who was good and who was evil in this world.
