"Hey...... I'm sorry Shuohui, I didn't mean to, I just had an 'occupational disease' again......"

Well? What the?!

Is there really anyone in the room?

When did you sneak in?

I actually ....... I didn't even notice it!

In the Uchiha Itachi's incredulous gaze, a strange man with a half-black, half-white complexion wrapped in pitcher plants emerged from the wall where Sakuri Hachiki was staring.

Like Qimu Shuohui, the man was also wearing a black robe embroidered with auspicious clouds.

When he landed, Uchiha Itachi's heart suddenly had an answer to the identity of this person.

That special robe seemed to be the unique symbol of the Xiao member, and the person in front of him had a super ability to conceal himself...... Isn't it the guy named "Jue" that Qimu Shuohui said made him extremely careful?

Uchiha Itachi was secretly thinking when the hoarse, unpleasant voice interrupted his thoughts.

"Shuohui, your perception is really getting more and more terrifying now! You found out just after I came in...... Well? This must be the 'genius of the Uchiha clan' in your mouth, right? It doesn't look good! I'm sick, and I don't feel as strong as the few reserve members I've been looking for recently. ”

"Absolutely, your vision is still as bad as ever! How many of the members you fancy have been made into puppets and fed sharks? ”

"Hey....... Then don't you blame the ghost shark and the scorpion, those two guys are too difficult to get along with? After all...... Not everyone has an immortal body like Kakudu or Feiduan. ”

He smiled in desperation, and a pair of eyes scanned the Uchiha Itachi's body with impunity.

"But seriously, is this guy you're looking for really okay? When the time comes, don't join the organization and be fed to the sharks by the ghost shark for a day! ”

"Don't worry, if the ghost shark dares to touch him, I promise...... In the end, it will definitely be the ghost shark who dies miserably! ”

"Is this guy really as strong as you say?"

The admiration for Itachi revealed in Hachiki Sakuki's words made the curiosity in the eyes that made Jujuku look at Itachi Uchiha even more curious.

"Scorpion has recently found a suitable partner, if the kid you are looking for can also join Xiao smoothly, then our ten core members will be considered to have been found!"

"Scorpion has found a partner? Who is it? ”

"A young boy in Yanyin Village is also engaged in art like a scorpion, but ...... Their views do not seem to be the same, alas...... It doesn't matter, anyway, the new kid is quite strong, and the scorpion can't help him, and they still have a tacit understanding when they fight together. ”

When I thought of finding a suitable partner for the troublesome guy of the Red Sand Scorpion, this was definitely a difficult thing that had plagued me for a long time.

He sat comfortably in a chair beside him, staring at the Uchiha Itachi on the bed beside him.

"Your name is Uchiha Itachi, right? I've heard of your reputation for a long time, and I can't imagine that one day...... You will also join Akatsuki as our companion. ”

"It's just a matter of making people! I was very interested when Hachiki-sama told me about your 'Eye of the Moon' project, and Hachiki-sama was the benefactor who saved our Uchiha clan...... That's why I asked him to join Akatsuki and complete the Eye of the Moon Project with you! At the same time, this can be regarded as repaying the kindness of Lord Hagi! ”

"It's a guy who values love and justice! But joining 'Xiao' is not enough with enthusiasm! Accidentally...... But I'm going to die! ”

"Are you doubting my strength?"

Between the words, the kaleidoscope writing wheel in Uchiha Itachi's eyes quietly opened.

Suddenly, a majestic oppressive force suddenly descended on Jue's body.

What the?!

It's this oppressive force from the kaleidoscope writing wheel eye again!

It's familiar! It's exactly the same as the feeling of oppression that Madara Uchiha and Sakuki Hachiki brought me back then!

This kid.......

I didn't expect it to be so strong!

"Enough of Itachi! You've just been in a coma from overuse of the Kaleidoscope Writing Wheel, just teach this guy a lesson! ”

"Yes! Lord Hagi! ”

The scarlet in Uchiha Itachi's eyes gradually dissipated, and the pressure that was pressing on Jedi suddenly dissipated.

He straightened up panting, and looked at Itachi Uchiha without the hint of presumptuousness in his eyes.

"What a hero! I can't imagine that you have such strength at such a young age! Itachi Uchiha, I take back my previous words that questioned you! You are indeed eligible to join Akatsuki! ”

"No, I warned you! Be respectful to this kid, he's not much easier to deal with than me! ”

"Huh...... Shuohui, I understand now. ”

Jue nodded slightly towards Qimu Shuohui, and the moment he lowered his head, a trace of imperceptible jealousy flashed in his eyes.

"We're supposed to be talking about it, when are we going to leave for Yuyin Village? Payne: After receiving your news, they are full of expectations for Uchiha Itachi! ”

"Decide whatever! If the body of the ferret allows, you can go now. ”

"Shuo Huina...... What about you? You're not going back to Yuyin Village? ”

"Why should I go back? I've already handed in the part I submitted for the fundraising task in the organization, right? ”

"When...... Of course, you turned it in very early. ”

"Now that I've completed this stage of the quest and the next stage of the Tailed Beast capture hasn't started yet, why should I go back? Isn't it okay to stay in this Yinyin Village, where I am the master of my house? ”

"It can be, it's ......."

"Absolutely, Payne has no opinion, do you have an opinion?"

"I didn't ...... Of course not! ”

Seeing Qi Mu Shuo's unkind eyes looking around on him, he shook his head with absolute interest, not daring to have a trace of disrespect for him.

"How dare I have an opinion on your decision? After all...... You are the true leader of Akatsuki! ”

"If you know, it's good."

Although he knew that the submissive appearance in front of him was pretended nine times out of ten, Qimu Shuohui did not break it.

He turned his gaze to Itachi Uchiha, and his tone was much softer than the one he had just been.

"Itachi, how are your eyes recovering? When can I leave for Yuyin Village? ”

"I'm almost better, and although I can't fight for the time being, I'm sure it's okay to hurry."

"That's good, absolutely!"

"Shuohui, do you have any orders?"

Hearing Qimu Shuohe's call, Jue, who was originally sitting in the chair, quickly stood up and walked in front of Qimu Shuohui flatteringly.

"On the way to Yuyin Village, the Itachi will be handed over to you! He can't fight yet, so you need to protect him! You can have an accident, he can't! Do you understand? ”

"Shuo Hui, you have a ....... Well! Got it, got it! You can rest assured! With my scouting abilities, there's no way the people of Konoha will be able to find us! ”

"I hope so! Weasel. ”

Sakuki turned his gaze back to Itachi Uchiha.

As he spoke, his figure began to blur with the sudden appearance of the whirlpools.

"Be careful on the way to Yuyin Village! As for those guys in 'Xiao', you don't have to be polite to them, in this organization, only those who have strength have the right to speak! Strength...... That's everything! ”

"I see, thank you for your teachings!"

The Uchiha Itachi looked up and watched Hachiki Sakuki leave.

At this moment, what appeared in his eyes was a sincere gratitude to Qimu Shuohui........
