There is rain every day in the Land of Rain, but today's rain is surprisingly heavy, and the raindrops on the ground "bang" non-stop, even the vision ahead is blurred, and you can only see three or five meters clearly.

The unusually heavy rain made the already restless people even more uneasy.

"Stepping on ......"

Six men in high-necked robes galloped across the muddy ground.

Xiao Nan, who had purple hair, said, "Nagato, I always have a bad premonition. ”

The red-haired boy with bangs covering his eyes turned his head to look at her and nodded, "Be careful, I also have a bad premonition." ”

"No, I think there's going to be a problem on Yahiko's side."

"Smack!"

Nagato stopped,

The five companions took a few steps ahead before braking the car.

"What's wrong?"

In the face of his companion's inquiry, Nagato bowed his head and remained silent, his abnormal eyes covered by bangs full of anxiety.

"Nagato?"

Xiao Nan asked softly.

Nagato came back to his senses, jerked his head up, and gasped like a drowning survivor at the sight of a familiar face.

"What's wrong, Nagato?"

Xiao Nan hurriedly ran over to check the situation.

Nagato raised his hand to stop it.

"I'm fine." He gasped and said, "Just listening to what you just said about Yahiko, I also thought of something terrible. ”

“…… So are we going to Yahiko's side? Another companion asked hesitantly.

"No, we'll trust Yahiko."

Nagato looked at the four companions other than Xiao Nan, these were all old people who had joined since the beginning of the establishment of the Xiao organization, and each of them was a companion worthy of entrusting his life.

"The situation in the southern stronghold is also related to everyone's life and death, and since Yahiko has handed it over to us to investigate, we must not let him down."

Looking at Nagato, who had become firm, Xiao Nan also let go of his uneasiness in his heart, and a smile appeared on his face, "Since that's the case, let's move on." ”

"That's right, let's speed up, figure out the situation sooner and go back sooner."

"Hmm!"

……

"Oh no, no, no......"

In an enclosed underground cavern.

A humanoid creature in a panic ran around the hole in circles.

Under the huge golem, Madara Uchiha, with gray hair and a skinny body, glanced at him weakly, and then continued to close his eyes to recuperate.

Seeing this, the pale human-like creature became even more anxious, and ran to the old man and shouted, "Madara, why are you still so calm, Nagato is going to find that killing god in Shayin Village, he is going to be killed!" ”

Madara didn't speak, just opened his eyes and stared straight at him.

The white anthropomorphic creature closed its mouth and instinctively took a few steps back.

Then, he felt strange again.

Why do you retreat?

Bai Jue, who has no common sense and no physiological structure of human beings, does not understand what the fear from the bottom of his heart is, but he is surprised by this action that goes against his heart.

"White ......"

Madara called the name of the anthropomorphic creature, and his voice was weak, as if he was going to die at any moment.

Bai Jue didn't care about any of this.

For him, there was no sadness at all, just curious about what Madara was going to confess.

"What's wrong?"

"This is probably the last day of my life."

"Huh!?"

Bai Jue looked at the old man in surprise and asked, "With the chakra of the Outer Dao Golem to support life, even if you survive for a few more decades, it's no problem!" ”

"Of course it's fine, but if I keep living, Nagato will die." Uchiha said, his cloudy left eye turned into a scarlet sharingan eye, "If you want Nagato to really open the eye of reincarnation, you have to make him understand the cruelty of the world and abandon his naïve ideals...... This may be an opportunity, but it is also a crisis for him. If I don't help him, he won't be able to get over it. ”

"And how are you going to help him?" Bai Jue asked as if he was curious, "If you pull out the tube of the Outer Dao Golem, will you die, or do you want to ride the Outer Dao Golem to save people?" ”

Madara Uchiha couldn't help but laugh, "If I had chakra who controls the Outer Path Golem, I wouldn't have made so many twists and turns." ”

"So what are you going to do?"

Madara didn't answer, but looked at the other Hakuju, who was hanging upside down at the root of the tree.

This Bai Jue looked thinner, and his face looked like a whirlpool of twisted and swirled bladed teeth.

"Vortex ...... You can call it a whirlpool! Madara whispered.

As the words fell, the whirlpool fell naturally like a ripe fruit.

Syllable!

Uzumaki landed on the ground with a face, and fell into a dog's, and his body bones twisted in an extremely irregular posture, as if he were a mess of mud.

Madara Uchiha had a look of hesitation on his face.

He was a little apprehensive and wondered if the decision he had made was too hasty.

But thinking of the current situation, he still decided to carry it out.

"Vortex, you come to wrap me up." Madara Uchiha took a deep breath and looked at him deeply, "If it's you, even if you tear off the Outer Path Golem, you can maintain my life for a while." ”

"Ah, I'm sorry, I seem to have hit the egg."

"Eggs, do you have eggs?"

"I didn't!"

"Wow, you don't have eggs, that's amazing!"

"Of course, do you have eggs?"

"I don't seem to have any."

Looking at the two absolutes who ignored themselves and chatted about the topic of egg pain, Madara was silent.

Once again, he fell into self-doubt.

Is it really okay to hand over your body to this guy?

Especially Uzumaki, keeping his face on the ground, his body bones like mud and softening, chatting calmly with another Bai Jue, made him doubt himself even more.

He didn't doubt that Uzumaki would never carry out his orders, but he was worried that this guy would do something strange with his body.

For example, striking a particularly shameful pose.

In that case, wouldn't his reputation be ruined?

No, you have to get insurance.

Madara Uchiha thought of his plan, and suddenly split into a pitch-black figure from his body.

"Eh, what is this?"

The two white figures who were desperate with their own color thoughts couldn't help but show surprise on their faces.

"This is the embodiment of my will." Madara Uchiha glanced at Hakuju, then turned his gaze to the black figure, "Kuroju, from now on, you will carry out the follow-up plan instead of me." ”

"I am you, and your pursuit is my pursuit."

"In that case, so be it!"

……

Southern stronghold.

Ryuuji looked at the large army that was ready to go, and asked, "I have already understood the performance of the equipment I gave you and can use it proficiently!" ”

"I'm already familiar with it."

"Then let's go, feel the enemy camp in three hours, and then kill everyone with the weapons I have given you, and we will reverse the current decline of the village with absolute victory."

"Yes."

"Let's go."

Long Eryi took the lead and galloped ahead.

Red was slightly half a step behind and followed closely.

The rest of the ninjas followed in an awl formation.

After a day and a night's rest, everyone was in good spirits, running with wind under their feet, and hundreds of pairs of ninja shoes trampled on the muddy ground, splashing bursts of water.

"Stepping on ......"

Everyone galloped all the way, and after about half an hour, several people appeared in front of them.

Because of the heavy rain, I couldn't see who it was.

But on the battlefield, there are only enemies but yourself.

Without Ryuuji giving instructions, three teams sped up and rushed forward.

"Nagato, it's the enemy!"

The people who came hurriedly stopped and looked at the red-haired boy in the middle.

"What are I going to do?" A companion said anxiously: "In this case, I'm afraid that the southern stronghold is already more than lucky." ”

"Withdraw!"

Nagato gritted his teeth and gave the order.

Although he really wanted to know what was going on in the southern stronghold, the other side was so large that it was not the time to know about it.

Hearing Nagato's order, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and then turned around and ran.

Three puppet divisions chased after them.

Two of them took out the scroll and opened it while running, and as a puff of white smoke drifted by, a strange device appeared in their hands.

This is a six-in-one bamboo dragonfly.

A shuriken is attached to the steel screw to form a bamboo dragonfly, and six identical bamboo dragonflies are encased in an abacus-like device.

The inside is staggered horizontally and longitudinally by gears, stuck on a steel bar, and a screw rod is linked to the bottom of the steel bar, which is wrapped with wires.

The two men grabbed the handle with their left hand and pulled the line with their right hand as they ran.

"Buzz!"

With the sound of the line straightening in an instant, six bamboo dragonflies rotated at the same time, and six shuriken flew out at a speed impossible for humans to throw.

A distance of hundreds of meters, fleeting.

Before the person who fled in front could react, he was killed by the shuriken through the chest.

Fortunately, this thing is very powerful, but it is accurate to pull the crotch.

Only two of the twelve shurikens hit, and one of them was still hit by grazing the edge of the leg.

Although it was just a cutting by rubbing the edge, the speed of the shuriken selection was too fast, and it directly cut the small half of the leg.

This person was still running fast, and he broke his leg directly in the run, and the whole person fell to the ground, and rolled several times before he could stop.

The sudden change made the remaining four people stop.

"Leave me alone, run!"

The man who fell raised his head and yelled at Nagato.

But the more this happens, the harder it is for Nagato to make the choice to abandon him.

If they are already dead, but they are still alive and well, how can this group of people who act in the belief of protecting peace give up the lives of their companions.

"Let's go together."

Two companions, one left and one right, carried the man with the wounded leg on their shoulders and continued to escape.

But.

Shouldering the weight of a person slows them down a lot. Attacks from behind them also make them waste time dodging.

This plus and one subtraction, the pursuers are getting closer and closer.

"You go first."

Nagato stopped, turning to face his pursuers.

The rest of the people were shocked, and hurriedly stopped, "Let's go together." ”

"If we go together, no one can leave."

"I'll break it off with you." Xiao Nan insisted.

Nagato looked at the girl's face for a moment, but was soon awakened by the sound of enemy footsteps.

"You guys go quickly." Nagato said firmly: "I can leave at any time if I want to go alone, you will only hold me back here." ”

Xiao Nan and the others did not feel angry because of these ugly words, but were moved.

Xiao Nan looked at Nagato deeply and was about to speak.

"Yahiko is still waiting for us to go back and report the situation."

Hearing this, Xiao Nan was stunned, and then earnestly instructed: "Nagato, don't die!" ”

"I'm not going to die." Nagato also had a smile on his face, "I haven't seen the peace that Yahiko said about, how can I die?" ”

"Gotta survive!"

Xiao Nan said another word of advice and left with the other two companions.

Nagato breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the footsteps behind him fade away, and then looked up at his pursuers.

Woohoo......

Four men fell in front of him, and the remaining eight crossed the Nagato and pursued the remaining deserters from both sides of the road.

"Give me back!"

Nagato's face tightened, and he turned around and reached out to grab it in the air.

The incomparable suction power was born from the palm of the hand, and the puppeteers who had already run seven or eight meters were actually sucked into the air and flew back.

"Ahh

The four puppeteers standing in front of Nagato were shocked, and immediately took out the kunai and threw it at him.

Nagato's right hand was weakly grasped, and he smashed it against the ground, and without looking at the eight puppeteers who were smashed into the ground, he reflexively raised his empty left hand.

The invisible repulsion erupted, and all the kunai that flew in was bounced away, and the four puppeteers were shocked and flew out.
