At the beginning of the lanterns, in the land of fire, a poor village.

Located on the edge of the Fire Country, this village is inaccessible due to its inaccessible location in the forest, and most people here make a living from hunting.

The village has a restaurant + tavern + grocery storefront, and every night there are drunks here.

In the corner of the restaurant, three men sit around a wooden table with rudimentary food on it.

"How far is it?"

Su Xiao spoke, and the atmosphere of the three of them was a little strange at this time.

The ghost shark sat beside Su Xiao, the ninja knife glue machine was placed next to his hand, ready to slash at Su Xiao at any time, and the weasel sat far away from Su Xiao.

The ghost shark coughed dryly, he finally knew why Payne invited Su Xiao to join, at this time he was less than half a meter away from Su Xiao, that kind of sharpness made him not feel very comfortable, and the man next to him was like a knife that cut off his head at any time, sharp and aggressive.

"Soon, if you travel overnight, you can arrive in eight hours at most."

Itachi was silent on his face, but he began to doubt Su Xiao in his heart, the other party seemed to be eager to join Xiao, considering his identity as a spy, Itachi didn't mention this.

"You're desperate to join us?"

Oni Shark spoke, although he is a traitor, but he is a very competent and loyal ninja, in the follow-up plot, Oni Shark was captured, and the enemy wanted to let the perceptual ninja get information in his brain.

The choice of the ghost shark at that time was enough to be admired, he broke free from the restraints, and after judging that he could not escape, he trapped himself with the water prison technique, and channeled the shark to devour himself, just not to leak the information, this kind of ruthlessness and loyalty even the enemy admired.

As long as the oni mermaid joins a certain force and identifies with this force, he will never make a move to betray that force.

"The shadows of the Misty Shinobi are chasing me, otherwise why do you think I would want to join the Iron Country."

"Oh? In this way, you joined us to prepare to evade the pursuit of the Fog Ninja Village. ”

"Yes, I have some grudges with the current Mizukage of the Misty Ninja Village, if I have the chance, I would love to kill that woman, and she also wants to kill me, and the dark part of the Misty Ninja has been chased to the Land of Fire,."

Hearing this information, the ghost shark nodded, there were also people who joined Xiao to hide from the disaster before, and the Xiao organization was a warmonger in the eyes of outsiders.

The Akatsuki organization is a mercenary organization that does not belong to any country, they provoke some small wars, and then monopolize the war commissions of small countries at low prices, increase the scale of wars, and then break the ninja system of big countries (destroy the economy) and monopolize all wars.

They serve several purposes.

First, gather a lot of money and prepare for the future.

Second, provoke a small-scale war, gradually expand the scale of the war, and break the current system.

Third, capture the Tailed Beast and use the Tailed Beast weapon to conquer and unify the world, thereby bringing peace.

This was the purpose of Akatsuki during Nagato's reign, and Nagato hated war, and he knew that in order to end the war, a bigger war would break out, and that only by breaking the ninja village system could there be peace in the true sense.

Nagato's ideals are good, but it's a pity that the war will not stop as long as there are human beings.

Envy, hatred, discrimination, arrogance, interests, too many things to provoke a war.

Although war is cruel, it is an indispensable point in the progress of human civilization.

Knowing that Su Xiao was being chased and killed by the Fog Ninja Shadows, Itachi and Oni Shark didn't show anything, and more than 50% of the members of Xiaonai were hunted down and killed by various ninja villages.

After resting for a while after eating, the three of them continued on their way, and their destination was the Rain Ninja Village in the Rain Country on the border of the Fire Country.

Although the Land of Rain and the Land of Water have similar names, they are far apart, and the Rain Ninja Village and the Fog Ninja Village are not related.

The Land of Rain is a small country that rains all year round and is said to never stop.

Of course, the rain there will not stop, because it is a large ninjutsu barrier, and after the enemy enters the rain country, once they get wet in the rain, they will be occupied.

Now the Rain Ninja Village is the base camp of the Akatsuki Organization, and Nagato, the leader of the Akatsuki Organization, is also the true leader of the Rain Ninja Village.

The good and evil of Xiao in the present period are unknown, and if you have to define it, Xiao in this period is an organization that uses extreme means to create peace in the future.

In the future, after Nagato's death, the Akatsuki organization fell into the hands of the Uchiha Obito, and at that time, Akatsuki was a terrorist organization in the true sense of the word, acting for the will of one person.

Therefore, Xiao in this period is different from Xiao in the future, if it is the Xiao organization in the later period, Su Xiao will never join.

The three of them walked through the night, because the three of them were in too fast, and the fog ninja dark department that was chasing Su Xiao could only sigh.

As for the arrival in the Land of Rain, the Fog Ninja Shadow Department has come and died as many as possible.

After eight hours on the road, it was overcast.

Unlike the previous mornings, this morning was particularly gloomy, and the sky was gray, indicating that it had reached the territory of the Land of Rain.

Scattered raindrops fell, and as a few people moved forward, the rain became heavier and heavier.

The rain fell on Su Xiao's body, the light blue lightning flashed, and the chakra mixed with the rain was instantly annihilated.

The weasel running in front of him turned his head sideways, and after looking at Su Xiao, his brows furrowed, and he clearly sensed the feeling of energy devouring.

Su Xiao changed in the perception of the ferret, not only the sharpness before, but an inexplicable threat, and there was a special energy in the other party's body.

Click~

The muscles of the ninja sword shark behind the ghost shark trembled, which made the ghost shark's face change.

"What's going on?"

Itachi thinks that the ghost shark senses the enemy.

"It's okay, the shark muscle just senses some kind of energy, are you right, White Night."

"Who knows."

Su Xiao put away the Qinggang Shadow energy, it was just an instinctive reaction.

The enchantment rain of the Rain Ninja Village is called 'Rain Tiger Freedom Technique', which is Nagato's ninjutsu and is used to perceive enemies.

Now that Su Xiao has arrived near Yunin Village, Nagato must have sensed something.

The area of the village is small, and the buildings here are tall and have a pointed tip, which is the result of the year-round rainfall.

The cone-shaped roof minimizes rain leakage and noise from the roof, reducing maintenance costs.

The entire Yunin Village is full of metal pipes that extend in all directions, similar to heating pipes, and their specific functions are unknown.

"Here, I'll take you to the chief."

The ghost shark spoke, and the weasel turned and walked away, walking very slowly.

"Looks like your partner isn't in good shape."

Su Xiao looked at the weasel who was walking away, the other party's life breath was strong and weak, and it seemed that he had overdrawn his body energy all year round.

"What do you mean?"

The ghost shark has a good relationship with Itachi, and the two have similar experiences.

"It's nothing, isn't it to see the chief."

"Follow me."

……

In a metal high-rise building dozens of meters high in Yunin Village, in the room on the top floor, the room was pitch black, only the sound of faint breathing.

"Xiao Nan."

The call was heard, hoarse and tired.

The door opened, and a blue-haired woman walked into the room.

As the woman opened the door, Shimmer plunged into the room, where there was an iron machine with a withered, pale man standing on it, his hands linked to the machine, what appeared to be a rudimentary control device.

The man had dull red hair, his ribs were clearly visible because he was so thin, and the most striking thing was the man's back, with black iron rods stuck in his back, and there were attachment points behind the iron rods.
