Konoha's Strongest Brother

Chapter 165 Broken Blade and Payne's First Contact

In the camp, in the exclusive Broken Blade tent, the light was dim, and only an oil lamp was lit.

Duan Ren sat on the bed numbly, he was still cultivating, the chakra was flowing in his body, tumbling endlessly, he wanted to become stronger to deal with everything that came next.

Suddenly, he sensed something, opened his eyes and looked out of the tent, his eyes were as cold as electricity, full of strong guard.

At that moment, he felt the terrifying existence that made him feel unnatural, and he was walking towards the tent step by step.

With a bang, the curtain has been lifted.

Payne, who was wearing a robe embroidered with red auspicious clouds, appeared in the tent, looking at Duan Ren from a short distance away.

Duan Ren was also watching him, his brows raised slightly.

Payne kept looking at Duan Ren calmly, and said slowly: "I know you are confused now, I have all the answers you want here..."

Payne actually broke in! ! !

The behind-the-scenes boss of the first stage appeared in front of Duan Ren like this, which made Duan Ren very puzzled.

But Duan Ren was just on guard, but his mood didn't change much.

It was obvious that Payne had come prepared. His words were very direct, and he called out his name right away. It just so happened that Duan Ren also had many questions that needed to be answered.

"Seeing me, you don't seem surprised at all!" Payne said.

Duan Ren shook his head, but did not answer him.

Immediately afterwards, Payne threw three things at random, and Broken Blade received them, and put them aside one by one after carefully looking at them.

Of these three things, one was a test tube, one was a torn piece of cloth, and the last one was a blank sheet of paper.

Inside the test tube was a lump of flesh and blood, which seemed to have been cut off from a thigh, and was about half the size of a baby's fist. It was well preserved in the test tube, and the surface of the flesh and blood was slightly scorched.

After vaguely guessing some pictures, Duan Ren narrowed his eyes slightly, raised his head, and asked Payne, "What is this?"

"A piece of meat from Thousand Hands Orange Water."

After a while, Payne replied: "Konoha Anbe didn't find much, because I had already searched the bottom of the water and found a well-preserved flesh and blood inside. This is the flesh and blood of the Thousand Hands Clan. If it is used for research, it may be possible to research Mudun... You can take a closer look, there is also a breath of fire escape energy attached to it. This breath is very unique. It is the injury caused by the Uchiha flame array. Go and see for yourself."

Duan Ren frowned slightly: "Just because of you, you also want to study the blood succession limit of the Thousand Hands?"

With a sudden flash of lightning, the test tube burst, and the piece of meat was also annihilated.

Payne was not annoyed, perhaps when he handed it to Broken Blade, he thought about this possibility, full of it, he pondered: "I originally wanted to do an experiment, but later I felt that it was very rude to Mr. Broken Blade , so I gave up the decision to experiment, and gave it to you, Mr. Broken Blade, of course it is up to you... But are you sure you saw it clearly just now?"

With a calm expression, Duan Ren threw the broken test tube aside. The experimental water in the leaking test tube wet his whole hand, and was wiped clean by Duan Ren. He didn't care, turned his head and pointed at the second thing, and continued to ask : "What is this one?"

"A piece of rag, Mr. Broken Blade can look at it himself."

Duan Ren flattened the rag, and since Payne showed it to him, it meant that there must be hidden information, and there was a vague shape on the rag that was spread on the table.

Duan Ren only glanced at it, and immediately understood that it was about one-third of the Uchiha clan emblem.

Because it was so familiar, he recognized it immediately, but in fact the rags were incomplete and uneven, and it took the average person a long time to understand.

Duan Ren suddenly raised his head, although his expression was calm, his eyes were very hot.

"It seems that Mr. Duan Ren already understands, so I don't need to remind you." Payne said with a light smile.

"Where did you get it? How can I be sure that you didn't find it elsewhere to lie to me?" Duan Ren took a deep breath and looked into Payne's empty eyes.

Payne was as calm as ever: "You already believed it, didn't you... You will figure it out yourself, you don't need to ask me."

Duan Ren frowned, but nodded again, and said, "That's right, I will find the truth myself!"

"Is there another one? Who is this person?" Broken Blade pointed to the portrait on the last piece of paper.

"You only think that the death of Qianshouchengshui is very strange, but you don't know that in order to ambush him, the murderer put in a lot of effort. Not only did a total of four masters come, but he also wrote down the barrier of fire escape on the river, Qianshoucheng Relying on his deep understanding of Shui Dun, Shui casually walked into that river, but didn't want to just walk into the enchantment of others. After all, he was too proud, but he also had the pride to deal with four people alone. You even killed two of them, which is really powerful... But the reason why Qianshou Chengshui traveled to that place alone, you seldom care about it. It was not a normal attendance, but a conspiracy. I believe you will be able to investigate here soon, and I will tell you in advance on behalf of the organization to express our sincerity."

A layer of frost instantly covered Duan Ren's face.

In his mind, this was a conspiracy, but he didn't expect that the other party's arrangement was so subtle, it was a sure-fire situation.

And Payne's ability to say this means that he has been observing this battle from the sidelines. He did not make a move, and he has no intention of changing the ending at all.

Duan Ren didn't blame others for this. It's his love for others to help you, and it's his duty not to help. There is no reason to blame others for this—even though he is very upset now.

"I ask you, who is this person?" He asked in a slightly cold voice.

"A history around a daimyo." Payne glanced at her and said seriously: "Let me tell you the truth, and you won't believe it. Why don't you find it yourself, and you will find a way."

Duan Ren kept the last portrait firmly in his heart, and finally, with a flash of lightning, he destroyed all three things.

Duan Ren looked at Payne seriously.

"There is no such thing as a free lunch, what do you want me to do?"

Payne said calmly: "It's very simple, join our Xiao organization."

Duan Ren's eyes jumped violently.

This is indeed a very strange thing, Xiao organization actually sent an invitation to him who is not a traitor.

Payne glanced at him, and then asked: "Don't you need to ask our organization? You don't need to understand our goals?"

Payne was surprised because Duan Ren was really strange. After others were invited, they either arrogantly called themselves masters or were cautious and refused to join. Only Duan Ren remained calm, not even a little bit surprised or confused.

It might be difficult for others to understand Akatsuki's existence, but Duan Ren knew it very well. Naturally, he didn't need to ask any more questions.

"So, your Xiao organization came to invite me?" Duan Ren said dryly: "Hehe, I didn't expect that I would become a favorite, but I have no interest in joining your Xiao organization at all, even if I defected from Konoha. , even if I am an enemy of the whole ninja world, I have no interest."

Duan Ren was already preparing things, packed up the ninja tool bag, put Bai Fang firmly in his waist, got up and walked out.

Payne was puzzled, chased after two steps, and asked, "Why?"

Duan Ren just shook his head, but didn't look back, and whispered: "Because your self-righteous peace is wrong!"
