In the end, the Fire Country caravan, which was trapped in the Land of Frost due to some unusual movements that could not be seen for the time being, successfully returned to the land of the Land of Fire with its own goods under the escort of the support team sent by Konoha.

But this small incident that happened in the Land of Frost seemed to cast a stone in the ninja world, which was peaceful on the surface, but in fact it was surging undercurrent, and easily spread ripples beyond expectations, involving countless willing and unwilling people into the sphere of influence of the undercurrent.

"The country of grass and the country of Taki-no-kuno have increased their censorship of the country of fire caravans, prohibiting the country of fire caravans from purchasing some specific materials from their country, and then the country of stone, which is located between the country of earth and the country of wind, broke out in civil strife, and the whereabouts of the daimyo who originally ruled the country are unknown, and there has been no public opinion on the side of the country of Tano, who has not established a ninja village, to integrate the ninja resources in the country and establish its own ninja village......"

"All of a sudden, the situation is getting tense again, Yahiko."

Holding a newborn baby girl in his arms, Xiao Nan sat in the office of the leader of the "Xiao" organization, and while listening to Yahiko's self-talk of sorting out the information by category, he shook his head with emotion and said:

"I didn't expect that a terrorist organization formed by the remnants of the 'root' party could provoke such a big turmoil...... If you think about it this way, we were able to survive the encirclement and suppression of them and Hanzo in the first place, and we really had the help of that Mizukage-sama. ”

"It is foreseeable that in the coming days, we will continue to rely on His influence and support in order to continue to develop the 'Akatsuki' and the Land of Rain."

Yahiko raised his head from the stacked information and sighed with deep feeling:

"With the power of one person, it has stirred up the waves of the entire ninja world, forcing the major ninja villages, which have always been dominated by armed conflicts, to choose a new way to confront...... Kaguya pity that guy, even if he was born in a small country that is even more unbearable and weaker than the country of rain, he should be able to become an existence that makes the entire ninja world focus on him, right? ”

"Maybe," Xiao Nan gently teased his daughter with his fingers, his expression was gentle and careful, "If you were born in a small war-torn country, there is a high probability that you will encounter the separation of your parents and the collapse of your family. ”

“…… That's right, then it's better for him to be born in the land of water. ”

Yahiko nodded in agreement, then leaned back a little tiredly, looked out the window at the goose feather snow that was falling incessantly, and muttered to himself:

"I just don't know when Nagato will be back...... When he wasn't there, he always felt like something was missing, and no matter what he did, he felt constrained. ”

"There's no way, after all, the Land of Rain is just a small country trying to survive in the cracks, and without a powerful ninja like Nagato, even the collection of intelligence must be more cautious."

Just as Xiao Nan was rationally analyzing the role of Nagato for the entire "Xiao" organization, the window of the office where the two were suddenly opened from the outside without warning, and a red-haired figure wearing a full body of snow jumped in, and then closed the window with his backhand, while turning his head to look at the two best friends in the room with a gentle expression, and quipped:

"I feel like I'm hearing someone talking about me...... Probably not a delusion, right? ”

"Nagato!"

Seeing the comer's iconic reincarnation eye, Yahiko immediately jumped up from his position, laughed and rushed forward to give him a big hug, and while hugging Yahiko, Nagato also set his eyes on Xiao Nan, who stood up together, and saw the baby girl in her arms crying because of the cold air that had just been exposed when the window was opened, Nagato couldn't help but stiffen his face, and apologized with annoyance:

"Ah, I'm sorry, I didn't expect a newborn child to be ...... in the room"

"Don't worry, this kid is not so squeamish."

Xiao Nan comforted the child in his arms very familiarly, and after a short time let her calm down again, seeing this, Nagato let go of Yahiko, and said apologetically:

"I'm sorry, Xiao Nan, I obviously agreed that after this child was born, I would come to be her stepfather, but not only did I not be able to catch up when she was born, but I also left such a bad impression on her when we met for the first time......"

"That kind of thing doesn't matter, Nagato, after all, you're running around for another child that the three of us share."

Yahiko waved his hand and forgave Nagato, who was innocent of the ignorant for his daughter, and then raised his hand on Nagato's shoulder, and asked very seriously:

"Anyway, are the thoughts you wrote in the letter you sent us the result of careful consideration, Nagato?"

"Is that the one that made Akatsuki transform from a neutral peace ninja organization into a negotiation platform for dealing with conflicts between countries?"

"yes, that's it."

Yahiko looked at Nagato solemnly, "Can you tell me more about the ins and outs of that idea?" Although you have said a lot in your letter, the situation in the ninja world has changed so much, and you have personally participated in the defense of Konoha and witnessed the battle between Kaguya Rei and the Uchiha Obito of the 'Root' organization...... After all that happened, are you going to stick to that idea? ”

"Yes."

Nagato took a deep breath, nodded solemnly at Yahiko and Konan, and said in a deep voice:

"We must not only transform 'Akatsuki' into a neutral platform for reconciling the contradictions of various countries as soon as possible, but also try to persuade all countries in the ninja world to send their own representatives to us, whether they are in the camp of Iwakuin and Yunyin, or in the camp of Fog and Konoha, or even those who want to remain neutral like Shayin, they can go to the platform provided by 'Akakure' to express their opinions."

"Nagato...... Are you, a little unconscious? ”

Xiao Nan stepped forward with some concern, raised his hand and touched Nagato's slightly cold forehead, "It's okay to let the countries of the Konoha and Mist Hidden camps and the Ninja Village send representatives, and let a neutral country like Sha Yin send a representative, if you show your strength and attitude, there should be a 12 out of 10 chance, but, the countries and Ninja Village representatives of the Iwakuin and Yunyin camps?" ”

"Bringing such a group of people together for a meeting or something...... Do you wish they all had a fight on the spot? ”

Yahiko also expressed confusion and concern about Nagato's plan, and he made a very convincing example when he was in charge of organizing the personnel arrangement most of the time:

"After being captured by us, he has not been ransomed, and now he is simply working here in the 'Xiao' organization, Ye Cang of Sha Yin and Tro Yin of Yun Yin are examples, when did the two of them organize a meeting, didn't they start talking to each other at the first opportunity? When they encounter things that require cooperation at work, they are more inclined to lead their subordinates to complete them, and they don't have any intention of working together at all. ”

"It's just that two individuals who are hard to say have specific grudges are like this, if they are still burdened with the mission and will of the country and the ninja village, I'm afraid they can't say three words when they sit down, and they should start ninjutsu directly, right?"

"It's okay, I'll just make a move."

Nagato shook his head and said with a calm expression:

"It's a bit of a boast to say that, but as long as the opponent isn't Kaguya Ren or Gokage, I can still stop the various representatives before they do any large-scale damage in their battles."

"And as long as the representatives of various countries eat a few more times and realize that it is impossible for them to resist me, the presiding officer, they will naturally have room to sit down and talk about their respective interests and needs by the way."

"It's like, the ninja village behind each of them is afraid of Kaguya's personal force, so they are forced to give up the means of directly starting a war to plunder resources, and can only use some side ways that they didn't pay much attention to in the past to achieve sanctions against the enemy."

"After they gradually get used to exchanging opinions on the platform of 'Xiao', we, as the organizers of the conference, will naturally have a certain ability to guide and interfere in public opinion, as well as the opportunity to temporarily eliminate the war between the parties."

Listening to Nagato's argument, Konan and Yahiko glanced at each other, and from each other's eyes, they saw the complex emotions of doubt and understanding intertwined, and after pondering and digesting for a while, Yahiko spoke again and asked Nagato:

"That's what you found Nagato...... Is there a way to surface peace? ”

"Well, Yahiko, do you remember, we talked to Kaguya Ren at the time, and we wanted to leave a peaceful time for the ninja world to grow up enough for a new generation of ninjas, even if it was just a superficial peace."

Nagato first showed a look of surprise, then nodded vigorously, confirming Yahiko's thoughts, and continued:

"Yes, this is a measure to make the apparent peace that has been temporarily established by Kaguya's personal force more sustainable, although all we can do is to make all forces have their voices heard and suppress the outbreak of major wars without discrimination, but for us who do not rely entirely on our own strength to establish this order, such work is sufficient."

"Then, when this apparent peace can no longer be maintained, and the forces of all parties are about to resume the war, how will we deal with ourselves, Nagato?"

Xiao Nan asked worriedly.

"I'll leave this matter to our Mizukage-sama."

Hearing this, Nagato smiled freely and said unhurriedly:

"We, Akatsuki, will try to win him a peaceful time that can grow up a generation of ninjas, and when we can't continue, the power he has accumulated in order to complete his vision has almost broken through the critical value, and it is time to start moving to the stage of practical practice."

"Of course, if the method he finally adopts will make the entire ninja world miserable......"

"It's up to me to fight with my life and this pair of reincarnation eyes to correct him."

The words fell, and the purple reincarnation eyes in Nagato's eyes slowly contracted, exuding a resolute determination to give up who else would be.
