A tower rising in the rain.

"Ah!!h

A cry of pain came from Kanzo's mouth.

However, no one came to his aid.

The people who hate him sell the interests of Yuyin to the Kanzo of Konoha, and many people want him to die immediately.

And those who followed him in the gang have already been executed.

In other words, the current exploration is in a desperate state of isolation.

"You...... You're ......."

Kanzo struggled to move his body back, staring fearfully at the man standing in front of him.

With long red hair and an indifferent expression, as if he didn't put anything in his eyes, he lacked the joys, sorrows, and sorrows that humans should have.

If you had to say it, it would be as if you had become a 'creature' on another level, looking down on the world from there.

Including human beings who are struggling in the human world, they are also the targets of his overlook.

"It's been a long time, Mr. Kanzo, it's been about two or three years, since Hanzo-sama and Yahiko died."

Nagato's tone was full of honorifics and politeness, and there was no murderous spirit at all.

In other words, for this kind of guy, showing murderous aura is redundant and wasteful.

Kanzo's body trembled, his lips trembled, and he couldn't say a word, and there was only naked fear in his eyes.

Just standing in front of him made Nagato feel an irreversible invisible force, and his body seemed to be heavy.

"Still, I don't think you pay too much attention to a small role like mine. That's why I'm here today to take away everything that doesn't belong to you. ”

Nagato spoke indifferently, as if talking about a trivial matter.

Kanzo swallowed his saliva and finally replied, "Are you here to avenge Hanzo?" ”

Nagato didn't respond, and in Kanzo's opinion, he undoubtedly acquiesced to this.

"Actually, I had no choice but to do it...... If Yuyin lets Hanzo take charge again, it will definitely bring Yuyin into the abyss. You see, now that Yugakure and Konoha are cooperating, neither Iwakuin nor Shagakure dare trouble us......"

Kanzo didn't know if his sophistry was useful, but since the other party was the one who knew and was the subordinate of that idiot Yahiko, then, as long as he was thinking about Yuyin's future, no matter what happened, the situation would not be too bad.

At the very least, until Konoha's reinforcements arrive.

"In other words, do all of Yuyin want to thank you for your deep understanding?"

"Don't dare to be. In fact, Hanzo, that old guy, has already rotted his will. As his deputy, I know everything about him, he was just forced to go to the battlefield, and he didn't dare to fight Konoha and Shayin at all...... He was just a vain old man who would not hesitate to watch the Land of Rain fall apart in order to protect his reputation as a demigod...... He is the main culprit responsible for the current tragedy in the Land of Rain. ”

"Really?"

"That's right. Even the once famous half of the body can't resist the washing of the years, and becomes a bad old man who is greedy for life and afraid of death. I'm also forced to cooperate with Konoha as a last resort.,Only in this way, can Yuyin and the Land of Rain have a way out.。 If you don't believe me, I can ......"

"No, I believe you."

Nagato smiled.

At this moment, Nagato was like the embodiment of compassion, and the smile on his face gave people great peace of mind.

Kanzo was stunned for a moment, and before he could show a look of joy, Nagato reached out and easily grabbed Kanzo's throat, lifting him into the air.

"Uh...... Belch...... You...... Cough...... Do ......"

Kanzang, who was choked by the throat, almost suffocated, could only say some words that could not be connected into sentences.

The thin body and arms, but the power contained in it, was like an extremely dangerous and powerful beast, and Kanzang's face had turned pale.

"But...... Is there any necessary relationship between this and me killing you? ”

Nagato said this lightly, Kanzo's pupils shrank, and a begging for mercy appeared in his eyes.

However, Nagato's palm grew tighter and tighter, like steel, trying to crush Kanzo's throat alive.

"Let it go...... Leave me alone...... Seeking ......"

Kanzo's face was congested and red because he couldn't breathe.

As he was about to suffocate, Nagato suddenly let go of his hand.

"Hah...... Ha ......"

Sitting on the ground panting in embarrassment, Kanzang escaped death, and for the first time knew that it was so good to be alive.

He still has a good life to enjoy, and he can't die here.

He didn't know why Nagato would let him go, but it certainly wasn't because of mercy.

The idea that the other party wants to kill him is absolutely true.

However, he did not think much about it at this time, and climbed on all fours, like a dangerous animal, and rushed towards the door where he could escape.

Nagato didn't stop him, and Kanzo saw hope of survival.

However, this hope, the moment he grasped it, a shadow appeared in front of his eyes.

With Nagato-like reincarnation eyes, an old face, staring at him with unfazed pupils.

"Han, Hanzo ......"

As if he had seen a ghost, Kanzang took two steps back in horror, and said a complete sentence.

I thought I had seen the hope of life, but the moment I was deprived again, Kanzang's heart became even more desperate.

As if he had been poisoned by some kind of poison, his face contorted in fear, and he muttered words of unknown meaning before he fell to the ground stiffly, losing his breath.

"He seems to be scared to death, it's really useless."

Xiao Nan walked out of nowhere, his face was indifferent, his body was full of blood, and he did not hesitate to give disdain to Kanzang.

This kind of guy can also become the leader of the rain hide, which is really a shame for the rain hidden ninja.

Relying on the power of Konoha, a coward who only dares to fake a tiger in the land of rain.

Nagato ignored the corpses that had been hidden, which were nothing more than inconsequential figures.

"Has the situation outside stabilized?"

"Hmm."

Xiao Nan nodded.

Kanzang is very unpopular in Yuyin, especially in the past two years, with the power given by Konoha, he has done mischief in Yuyin, and many people are dissatisfied with his rule.

The fact that they were hiding death would only make them happy.

"Next is to face Konoha."

Nagato walked outside, listened to the sound of the rain, and said indifferently.

The spokesperson of Kanzo is dead, and Konoha will not give up.

But what is in his hands, there is no reason to return it.

The fourth-generation Hokage Bo Feng Shui Gate, who made him extremely jealous, was dead, and except for a third-generation Hokage who stayed at home, no one in Konoha was his opponent.

However, Konoha is not only powerful in high-end combat power, but also in the power of the ninja troops combined, which is also very terrifying.

On that day, even the extremely powerful Nine-Tails were able to suppress the firepower for a short time...... This is the most powerful power of Konoha.

"The four generations of Hokage are dead, and the war has resumed on Yunyin's side, and they don't have any extra energy. Moreover, the information that was deliberately revealed to Konoha before can also play a role in some diversion. ”

For Xiao Nan's inference, Nagato basically agrees.

But even so, you can't be careless about Konoha.

"They don't dare to do anything in the open, but there will definitely be no less small actions behind the scenes. Moreover, we need to strengthen some forces on our side. ”

Nagato meant something.

The strength of Yu Yin alone is not enough, if Yu Yin had not suffered heavy losses in the previous war, it would indeed be a big help.

But now the number of ninjas in Yuyin Village is less than 1,000, the economy is depressed, and the people can only live on poverty...... This is still the case with the rain hidden, let alone the rain country.

Just solving the problem of food and clothing is not a simple matter.

"Xiao Nan...... What do you think I sent the ninjas from the village to farm? In that case, the harvest in the Land of Rain will be much better and much more efficient. ”

Nagato asked.

“？？？”

Xiao Nan was stunned, the corners of his mouth twitched twice, and he couldn't speak.

To be honest, she felt that Nagato had no talent for humor, which could be considered a bad joke at best.

◎

Yuyin Village is calm, and on the surface, it seems.

A long bridge erected over the water leads directly to Yuyin Village.

Kakashi led two teams of shadows, walking on the bridge openly, and walked towards the Rain Hidden Village in front of him, without intending to hide his figure.

The sound of rain is dripping, and the middle of the long bridge is the guard room at the entrance of Yuyin Village.

There's a team of rain ninjas guarding there.

Noticing the posture of Kakashi and the others, they immediately took up their weapons and blocked the road with fierce faces, looking like they were not very welcoming to Kakashi's guests.

Although Yuyin Village is not a vassal of Konoha , the Yuyin ninjas grit their teeth at the Konoha ninjas, and their eyes are full of hatred.

Because it was Konoha who betrayed them on the battlefield, many of his colleagues died at the hands of Sha Yin, and even Hanzo was sacrificed as well.

If it weren't for Konoha's betrayal, Yuyin wouldn't have fallen to this point.

"It's ......"

Kakashi was just about to hand over the paperwork written by the three Hokages when a rain ninja stepped forward and snatched the paperwork from Kakashi's hand and threw it on the ground, wet from the rain.

"Get out of here!"

“……”

Kakashi looked at the paperwork that fell on the concrete floor, and before he could say anything, the dark part behind him had already pulled out the ninja knife behind his back, and those rain hidden ninjas were not to be outdone, and took up weapons, or sealed there, and mobilized Chakra.

The Great War is on the verge of breaking out.

Unconcerned about the tension between the two sides, Kakashi reached out and felt the rain falling from the sky.

The rain was mixed with a faint chakra, and it was being watched. Kakashi said to himself.

This chakra breath gave him a very bad feeling.

It's not good...... He could be killed at any time.

If you clash with these rain ninjas here, it will be absolutely impossible for anyone to survive in the shadows here.

Faced with the legendary Hitomi Jutsu, Kakashi didn't even have the confidence to escape.

Once that happens, he'll have to leave Konoha.

"Hokage-sama wants peace to be precious, and it's best not to have unnecessary disputes."

"Then please reply to your Hokage, Yuyin will not be under the jurisdiction of Konoha in the future."

The man said this with an expressionless face, and his voice was indifferent.

The atmosphere froze again.

Kakashi had no choice but to sigh and said, "In that case, I will return this matter to Hokage-sama, and at the same time, I hope that you Yugakushi will do it yourself, and don't cause unnecessary trouble to yourself because of the quick tongue for a while." ”

From Konoha's standpoint, although there is no way to fight, it cannot fall into the majesty of Konoha either.

Kakashi is very good at this.

Sure enough, after he said this, several Rain Hidden Ninjas showed hesitation, obviously also afraid that Konoha would retaliate against them afterwards.

"That's it for today, and next time, it won't be that simple."

Kakashi knew it wasn't over.

Yuyin Village wants to go out independently, it's not that simple.

At the very least, most of Konoha wants Yugakure to break away from Konoha rule.

Because the Land of Rain is an excellent shield against the Sand Hidden Attack on the Fire Country's territory.

Only in your own hands is the safest.

It's just that Kakashi can't call the shots in this kind of thing, and the order given to him by the three generations of Hokage is to investigate, not to clash with the Rain Hidden Ninja.

After getting a clear attitude from Amagakure, Kakashi turned around and left with the shadows, rushing back in the direction of the Land of Fire.

The Yuyin Shangnin stood there without moving, and he didn't know whether it was sweat or rain in his palm, and he was quietly relieved in his heart.

To be honest, it wouldn't be good for Yugakure to clash with the shadows of Konoha here.

But Yuyin has no way to retreat now, and next, it's time to usher in Konoha's accountability.

As long as he survives, Yugakure will be able to truly get rid of Konoha's control.

◎

Kakashi truthfully reported the state of the rain to the three generations of Hokage Ape Tobi Hichi.

The Daimyo of the Land of Rain was killed in an accident, and it seems that something happened inside the Rain Hidden Village, and the leader Kanzo did not know whether he was alive or dead, and cut off contact with Konoha.

Kakashi's shadows were unable to enter the Rain Hidden and gather more information.

Therefore, in the final analysis, what happened to Yuyin inside the accident is the first task.

It's just that Konoha has too many things to do now, Yun Yin has restrained a lot of Konoha's power, and the Uchiha also needs a certain amount of shadow surveillance, and the three S-class rebel ninjas may also be in the shadows, staring at Konoha and preparing to plan the next attack.

Now that the rain is involved, the sun is sorrowful.

Until October this year, Konoha was still a beautiful scene of peace and stability.

However, with the Nine-Tails Rebellion and the death of the four generations of Hokage, various problems have also emerged, making Konoha quite busy.

If you want to investigate the mutation that occurred inside Yuyin, there is no way to solve it with the current darkness alone.

Most of the shadows have their own work and can't pull away.

However, there is also a dark side that can help him.

That is the root of the Danzang leadership.

It's just that Tuan Zang is involved in the rain...... Hizai shook his head.

The group is not suitable.

At the beginning, he asked Tuan Zang to handle the diplomatic relations with Yu Yin, which caused Tuan Zang to disobey him and do a lot of unsightly things behind his back.

"Kakashi, you go back and stand by first, and keep in touch at all times."

In desperation, Hizashi only gave Kakashi an order to standby.

"Yes, Hokage-sama."

Kakashi nodded and disappeared from the office.

◎

"Danzo-sama, this is information from Kakashi."

Dressed in a black coat and sunglasses, Ryoma, the oil girl, held a scroll that recorded information, and said this sentence without any emotional fluctuations.

As a senior manager in the roots, it can be said that he has a high position under one person in the roots.

In the past, when Danzou was unable to lead the roots, the roots were commanded by him.

Born in the Konoha Insect family, the Oil Girl family is a radical who puts the interests of Konoha first.

Like a normal ninja, doing the outermost work, he can't meet his needs.

Only the roots are in line with his style of acting.

Because of this, he was reused by Danzo, and even such an important spy as Kakashi, he knew it clearly.

Danzou picked up the scroll handed over by Ryoma and opened it to take a look.

"Rain Hide...... Want to break free from Konoha's control? The guy who slashed that day is really unreliable. If I were to come, I wouldn't let Yuyin leave Konoha's palm. ”

The things explained in the intelligence made Tuan Zang very dissatisfied.

The Land of Rain is an important buffer zone for war.

Rain Hide can also be used as a protective wall against enemy attacks in the Land of Fire during the outbreak of war.

If this barrier is lost, it will be a huge loss for Konoha.

"Yes, this time the third generation is back in power, and many people in the village have raised objections. I want to select the fifth generation Hokage from the three ninjas. ”

Ryoma sighed.

The fourth generation of Hokage wave Feng Shui Gate, although it is also the enemy of the roots, but such a young faction is the Hokage, even if it is the loss of the interests of the roots, but for Konoha, it has a positive significance.

At least that fourth-generation Hokage is not a Howa faction, and his incomparably powerful killing methods and exaggerated combat achievements on the battlefield are in awe, even if he is a root ninja.

"Hizai will not let anyone get their hands on the Hokage's power, not even if the four generations are alive. His original intention was to train the fourth generation to become his puppet, otherwise it would have been Orochimaru to become the fifth generation Hokage. ”

Tuan Zang did not miss any opportunity to fall into the well against the sun.

Danzo's words, Ryoma couldn't refute.

He is also a little dissatisfied with the three generations now, he doesn't dare to do it if he wants to, and he doesn't do it thoroughly.

Konoha ...... A more decisive Hokage is needed.

"How to solve the matter of Yuyin?"

"The previous manpower of the root is disrupted, and it will take some time to reassemble. Moreover, there are unknown changes in Yuyin, and Kanzang has not contacted us, most of them have been killed. Even if the root is now intervening, it will be tricky to save the situation on Yuyin's side. ”

There was a deep meaning in Tuan Zang's eyes.

Ryoma nodded, this thing is really not easy to do.

The reason why Yugakure was able to surrender Konoha was because of the ninja who was greedy for life and afraid of death.

Only if he lives well can he bring benefits to Konoha.

Once he died, the connection between Yuyin and Konoha was completely severed.

"It seems that it can only be handled by the three generations, and I hope it won't disappoint again this time."

"I hope so...... Not! ”

As soon as Tuan Zang finished speaking, his expression changed suddenly, and his face twisted in pain.

The bandaged-wrapped right arm trembled violently, and a palpitating chakra spilled out from it.

"Oops!"

Seeing this, Ryoma hurriedly walked to the side, took out a medicine bottle from the drawer of the cabinet, poured out a few pills from it, and fed Tuan Zang to take it.

After taking the pill, Tuanzang breathed a sigh of relief, his face was covered with fine sweat, and the color of pain decreased slightly.

"Danzo-sama, how are you?"

Ryoma asked with concern.

"It's okay, barely suppressed."

Danzou gasped softly.

"That's good. I didn't expect Mu Dun's power to be so domineering. ”

Ryoma stared at Danzo's bandaged right arm, a look of concern in his eyes.

Even if Tuan Zang's strength is extraordinary, if he wants to control this arm transplanted with Mu Dun's power, there is a risk of being counterattacked.

"Gaining power comes at a cost. My original arm was broken off by that stinky girl from the Hyuga clan, otherwise I wouldn't have risked being eaten back to transplant the Mu Dun cell. ”

Tuan Zang also said with palpitations.

But as long as you can get the power of Mu Dun, everything is worth it.

If you want to become a Hokage, strength is essential.

"But ...... go on like this"

"It's okay, the results of the experiment over there should be almost out."

Danzang muttered to himself.

"Experiments?"

"The reason why I can't control Mu Dun's power is because Mu Dun's power is too violent to keep a balance with my chakra, as long as I find another powerful force that can balance Mu Dun." To put it simply, Mu Dun is too strong, and in the face of Mu Dun's strength, he cannot occupy the active position.

"In that case, what do you want to use to balance the power of Mu Dun?"

Ryoma was puzzled.

Danzang's face showed a coldness of frozen air, and he spat out a few words:

"Writing Wheels."

Ryoma's body stiffened suddenly.

"After gathering the power of Senju and Uchiha, even Hizashi will not be my opponent!"

Danzang's tone was full of such confidence.

"Lord Tuanzang, forgive me for talking too much, it's not easy to do this kind of thing."

"That's why Orochimaru's existence makes sense. His genius research mind was far more powerful than his ninjutsu. ”

"No, I mean the Uchiha."

Having worked with Orochimaru, Ryoma certainly knows how capable Orochimaru is.

In terms of strength, he is only one line lower than the Great Snake Pill, but with the special insects he breeds, he can also entangle with the Great Snake Pill for a long time.

But when it comes to research, he can't get off the hook.

Of course, what he denied was not Orochimaru's ability, the crux of the matter was Uchiha.

If you want to get the Sharingan, you can't get around the Uchiha clan.

Stealing the blood inheritance limit of the ninja of the same village...... This is a felony.

In particular, the Uchiha clan is involved.

This is a behemoth that is even more terrifying than the Great Snake Pill after binding the roots.

Although its strength has been reduced due to the war, it is still the most powerful ninja in Konoha and cannot be shaken.

"Don't worry, Ryoma. I've found the right guy to deal with the Uchiha. ”

The sneer on Danzo's face made Ryoma's words pause.

He knew that once Danzou had decided, it would be impossible to change it, not even the third Hokage.

has been warned many times that it is forbidden to study Mu Dun in private, but the result is that Tuan Zang has violated the taboo again and again, and studied Mu Dun behind his back, and even now he not only wants to get involved in Mu Dun, but he also does not intend to let go of the writing wheel.

There will definitely be a bloody storm inside the village. Ryoma was determined.
