I haven't seen fireworks.

The Kingdom of Grass is located in the middle of the Kingdom of Fire and the Kingdom of Earth. Although it is an independent country, it is actually a buffer zone between the two great countries.

The Grass Ninja Village, which belongs to the Country of Grass, has neither strength nor status in the entire ninja world, and does not even have autonomy. Most of the time, it depends on the existence of the Leaf Village. In peaceful times, they do not even have the right to be promoted to Chunin. It's in Konoha's hands.

This is a deserted wilderness with a clear sky, vast fields, and cattle and sheep can be seen on the wind-swept meadows.

A black figure suddenly emerged from the soil, first glanced around, and then dived into the soil, going deeper and deeper.

A few minutes later, the black shadow who had dived for an unknown number of meters was completely empty, and he had already arrived at an underground building.

This is a very wide building complex, not only has a lounge, a laboratory, and even a very large showroom full of weapons.

Just looking at the style of those weapons and the cold light on the blades, you can tell that these weapons are quite extraordinary.

The shadow walked all the way through these rooms and reached the deepest part of the building.

"Jue?" An old voice suddenly sounded: "Aren't you monitoring the eyes of reincarnation, why did you come back?"

"Three strangers approached Nagato, and one of them has very strong perception. After I was discovered, I had to evacuate!" said the black shadow named Jue.

"Oh?" The old voice was a little surprised. It was definitely a creature he created using Yin-Yang Escape. It can also use the power of Wood Escape, so it can blend into vegetation and soil, and its hiding ability is very strong.

"Blind eyes?" he asked.

"The distance is too far," said Jue after a pause, "Besides, he seems to be using a technique to hide his figure all the time. I saw him from a distance covered in fog, so I couldn't see clearly at all!"

He finally entered the hall.

This is an empty stone room, only a wooden chair is placed in the center, and several pipes are connected to the chair, and it is not known where it leads.

Sitting on the chair was an old man wearing a white robe, with pale hair, and his eyes were still Sangouyu Sharingans!

Although he was getting old, his aura was like that of a lion, without the slightest sign of dying.

"One of the three of them was very fast and came to drive me away. I didn't dare to stay around, so I had to evacuate!" Jue said.

"Is that so!" The old man responded without any fluctuation in his expression.

"What are they doing looking for reincarnation eyes?"

"It seems that they are not here to find the Samsara Eye, but for Yahiko!" Black Shadow said, and took out a few books from his body: "They should be the same people who want world peace, just like Yahiko. Because I learned about the existence of the Akatsuki organization, I came to meet with you. This is a book written by their organization!"

After Zhao Changjiang gave the book to the three members of the Xiao organization, he had read it, but the things written in the "Declaration of Human Rights" were all idealistic and did not involve any deep-seated things, so he didn't see why.

"Oh? The same person as Yahiko!" The old man took the book, although there was no light in the room, but with Sharingan, he could read the book without any hindrance.

"The old will die, the young will be raised, and the young will grow up? Everyone is equal?" The old man nodded: "Yes, I didn't expect that besides me and the three brats, there are people in the ninja world who are thinking about these things. , Sure enough, people’s pursuit of peace will never stop!”

"Then do we want to reveal part of our strength?" Jue asked: "They are not weak. If they choose to join the Akatsuki organization, they may not be able to kill Yahiko just by relying on Hanzo and Danzo!"

The old man tapped the meaning with his fingers and fell into deep thought.

It must be said that those three people are very strong, but in the eyes of the old man, no matter how strong they are, they are at most elite jnin.

In front of him in his heyday, there were all dishes!

But it's different now. It's not convenient for him to take action, and he has no one available under his command.

"The plan will be implemented in the next few days. Why did such a group of people suddenly appear..." The old man frowned.

He didn't know that as long as they invited Danzo to join, Sun Jingyun would definitely jump out.

Don't invite Danzo?Then there is no one to invite, and there is no second person in the entire ninja world who is willing to do things that harm others and benefit himself like Danzo!

"Use some of the funds! Hire bounty ninjas to do it!" The old man thought for a while and said, "Also, bring some Baijue to support, and be sure to take them all down!"

"Yes!" Jue nodded, then immediately dived into the wall and left the underground space.

"You have a good idea, but unfortunately, like Hashirama, you are too naive. These slogans have no meaning in changing the world!" The old man shook his head: "Infinite Tsukuyomi is the only way to achieve peace!"

Putting down the "Declaration of Human Rights" in his hand, the old man picked up another book.

If Sun Jingyun was here, he would definitely recognize him.

This book is "Holy Hand Shennong" published by their bookstore!

The old man stayed underground alone, and there were no entertainment activities, so of course he chose to read novels.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

August 7th is the beginning of autumn. It is forbidden to dig wells, cut down trees, and combine longevity trees. It is suitable to travel far, get married, pray for blessings, and make alliances!

Because of the unique geographical climate of Yuyin Village, it is rainy all year round. In other countries, the rain that can be regarded as heavy rain is really just light rain in the Land of Rain.

Under the heavy rain, there were few people walking on the street, but at this time, there was a line of people wearing a dark blue cape with a hood and a lotus pattern printed on the clothes, walking forward without saying a word.

A ninja from Hidden Rain Village jumped from upstairs. After the two sides exchanged a few words, the ninja from Hidden Rain Village became the guide and led the team towards the center of Hidden Rain Village.

Yuyin Village used to be the capital of the Rain Country. Although the country is small, it is also the essence of the country. Naturally, the area is not comparable to that of the small Konoha Village.

Although this team was extremely fast, it took nearly half an hour to arrive at the central square of Yuyin Village.

Here, there is already a team waiting here.

After a brief exchange, the two teams merged into one team, and then rushed out of the city without saying a word.

However, the leaders of the two teams walked together and fell to the rear.

The two of them seemed to be communicating with each other.

"Danzo didn't come?" Yuyin's team leader asked.

"Hmph, Hanzo didn't come either!" The dark blue robe replied.

Captain Yuyin snorted coldly and said: "I am Yuyin Village's elite jounin Liu Yuanlan, Yukage's first guard. It is your honor that I come to welcome you!"

"I am a Grade A ninja from Genbu, and the No. secret agent of Tianzi returned to the sea with a sword. I am here to carry out this task, and it is also a respect for you Yuyin Village!"

Liu Yuanlan snorted coldly, stepped on her foot, and flew more than ten meters away in an instant.

"Um!" Gui Hai was stunned, was he trying to compete with me?

Okay, after all, I am representing the roots at this time, so it would be a bit inappropriate to hide clumsiness!

"The footwork suitable for playing in the rain is naturally walking in the rain!" Gui Hai tapped his toes, and his whole body melted into the rain like a phantom. In less than ten seconds, he had already caught up with Liu Yuanlan who was running away.

Seeing him catching up, Liu Yuanlan snorted coldly, and immediately quickened her pace again, but Gui Hai Yidao didn't overtake this time, but followed him leisurely, keeping a relatively static distance from him.

When the two troops saw that the bosses of both sides had run so far, they immediately quickened their pace.

Half an hour later, the two troops had arrived at the other side of Yuyin Village.

This place has begun to enter the Kingdom of Earth. The swamp terrain has begun to decrease, and large areas of hills and rock stacks have begun to appear.

The two teams quickly entered the rocky hill, and disappeared after a while.

Another half an hour later, another wave of people came.

They first inspected the environment here, and then imitated it, and hid in the rocky hills.

Immediately afterwards, ninjas came from time to time, and they also wanted to hide in the rocks. If it was a good place, everyone would naturally take a fancy to it, so it would happen that there were already people after entering.

But in the past, ninjas who would fight to the death whenever they met, now suppressed their hatred and chose to speak out unanimously.

After all, the bounty for the four target people is greater than that of everyone present combined. If we take action now, the gain outweighs the loss.

"I don't know who issued the bounty, it's just four little ghost heads, and they add up to million taels!" A middle-aged man with a sullen face and a treacherous forehead from Longin Village came over from nowhere. .

After looking around for four weeks, he naturally didn't choose the rocks and hills that had already been selected, but a ground escaping technique hidden underground.

A night passed quickly, and when the sun came out again, it was already August th.

At 8:30 in the morning, people from the Xiao organization had arrived early as usual.

A total of five of them came, Yahiko, Nagato, Xiaonan, Zhao Changjiang, and Yun Xiao who had shown his face.

At nine o'clock, Hanzo arrived with his men.

Yahiko had never seen Hanzo before, but he could tell from his position in the crowd, and Hanzo's features were obvious, only he was wearing a gas mask and carrying a weasel sickle on his back.

"Hanzo-sama!" Yahiko quickly greeted him.

"Are you from the Akatsuki organization, Yahiko!" Hanzo looked at Yahiko in surprise, and then at Nagato, Xiaonan, Zhao Changjiang, and Yunxiao who were following him.

Each of these five people is a young man!

"You guys have gained quite a reputation in the Land of Rain recently. I receive several reports from the Akatsuki organization in my office every day!" Hanzo said.

"Then I don't know what this information means to you. Is it a good thing? Or a bad thing?" Yahiko asked curiously.

"That's a good thing!" Hanzo laughed, "Young people in the Land of Rain are the future of the Land of Rain. With young people like you, the future of the Land of Rain is bright!"

Yahiko nodded shyly: "Hanzo-sama, I feel embarrassed when you praise me so much. How can we be so good? How about we sit down and talk?"

He gestured, and the Nagato behind him immediately formed a seal. In an instant, the soil on the ground turned into stone, and then condensed into a long table and two stone benches.

Hanzo glanced at Nagato in surprise, this kid is a bit powerful!

This move seems simple, but in fact, turning earth into stone is an advanced change in the properties of earth chakra. Those who can use earth escape to this extent are basically ordinary jounin!

How old is this boy?

With a trace of vigilance, Hanzo sat down on the stool, leaned his hands on the table again, and said: "Yahiko, I am very optimistic about your future, how about this, I happen to have no apprentices, the three of you worship me as your teacher How, in the future, you can just inherit my position in Yuyin Village!"

"We are naturally willing to worship a strong man like you as a teacher!" Yahiko nodded again and again, and then asked: "Then I don't know how you will deal with our Akatsuki organization after apprenticeship?"

"Naturally, it belongs to Yuyin Village, and it belongs to your leadership!!" Hanzo said, "However, don't spread the philosophy of the Akatsuki organization everywhere in the future!"

"Why?" Yahiko was stunned: "Is there anything wrong with Xiao's organization's philosophy?"

"The concept is very good, but it is not suitable for our Yuyin Village!" Hanzo shook his head: "You are too young, so you don't understand. In this world, if you want to have the right to speak, you don't rely on communication between people, but on strength. , it’s a fist!”

Yahiko was silent.

"You want people to communicate with each other, but are other villages willing to communicate with us? If you give up the war, will other countries give up too?" Hanzo asked: "Don't forget the previous war!"

"However, if we don't have ambitions, there is no reason for other countries to attack us, right?" Yahiko asked back: "If you didn't launch a foreign war for your own ambition, you wouldn't attract attacks from other countries!"

"But I'm for the Land of Rain, what's wrong with me!" Hanzo slapped the table, "Why should other countries be big countries, but we will always be citizens of a small country? Our Rain Country wants to become a big country, and our Rain Country Citizens of a big country also want to be citizens of a big country, so what's the problem?"

Yahiko remained silent.

If Hanzo had told him this from the beginning, he would have slammed the table.

At that time, he really couldn't understand Hanzo. In his eyes, Hanzo was just a sinner who launched a war. What he did was all for his own ambition!

He was willing to negotiate, but he actually wanted to convince Hanzo.

But after talking with Sun Jingyun before, Yahiko realized that he was very naive.

Many of his ideas were simply unrealistic and like castles in the air. He was just an orphan back then and had never looked at problems from the perspective of a country.

And Sun Jingyun had already woken him up, so when facing Hanzo, he didn't think of arguing, but felt that what Hanzo said actually made sense.

What can a small country do with few people?

Hanzo has done his best.

It's a pity that Hanzo's structure is not big enough, he only looked at the problem from the perspective of Yuyin Village, not from the perspective of the entire ninja world.

Therefore, he lost!

"What are you going to do?" Yahiko asked: "If our Akatsuki organization joins Yuyin Village, what are you going to do!"

Hanzo was taken aback for a moment, this seemed different from what he thought!

He thought the talks would collapse from the beginning, but he even prepared an ambush!

Unexpectedly, Yahiko would be moved?

So what are you waiting for? Keep talking!

"Of course it is to train you well!" Hanzo said: "In the past few years after the war, I have been thinking about how I failed. After thinking about it, there are only four words, and there is no successor!"

"Muye Village has excellent juniors like Sannin, Yanyin Village has several sons and daughters of Onogi, and Yunyin Village also has a bunch of outstanding young ninjas. Only our Yuyin Village was supported by me back then. As long as they sent If people hold me back, the village's troops will be no match for the opponent, and just like that, our Yuyin Village retreated and retreated until we failed!"

"Over the years, I have been cultivating the younger generation of ninjas, but I don't know if it is because of the nature of Yuyin Village. There are very few ninjas in the village who are talented and can compete with the three ninjas back then. Not to mention the strong man who can inherit my name and protect the entire country with one person!"

"But I see this hope in you!"

Hanzo's words were somewhat sincere: "Yahiko, your thoughts are a little naive, but that's because you are still young. It is not difficult to see that you are a person who is good at thinking, and our village also needs an internal affairs talent who is good at thinking!"

"As for Nagato, your ninjutsu talent is not weak, and you have the reincarnation eye among the three pupil arts. As long as you accept my teaching, within five years, it will definitely not be a problem to reach the height of the three ninjas back then!"

"Five years later, Fumihiko Yahiko and Takeru Nagato of Amegakure Village will rise again. It's just around the corner!"

"Yahiko, what do you think?" Hanzo's words were very earnest, as if he really wanted to recruit these three geniuses.

This actually does not conflict with his behavior of setting up an ambush. Ninjas always have to make the most complete plans. For example, if the negotiation fails, just leave them all here!

Yahiko smiled, how should I put it, what Hanzo said makes sense!

If he really develops according to his idea, maybe it will really look like that. After all, although Yahiko is weak, he knows his brother's talent.

Not to mention reaching the height of Sannin, surpassing Sannin is not a problem.

It's a pity that this is not his intention!

"And then!" Yahiko asked, "What happens after the Kingdom of Rain rises?"

Hanzo narrowed his eyes: "It's too early to say that now, so where is your answer!"

Yahiko shook his head: "It's not too early, it's because I'm afraid I will refuse after I say it."

"Actually, I know that the Country of Rain has few people and little land, and lacks natural development potential. It is able to rise now because it has taken advantage of the system of Ninja Country. But if other countries react and carry out the same reforms, then the Country of Rain will The country's current advantages will be wiped out in an instant..."

"Therefore, we must wage war abroad, expand our territory, increase our population, and stabilize our advantage before they react!"

Hanzo opened his mouth, and his eyes widened in an instant.

Wait, what's going on, how do you know?

This is the conclusion I came to after thinking about it for several years before World War II, and I have never told anyone else!

"As long as Yuyin Village is strong, it will definitely embark on the road of waging war, otherwise it will be waiting for death!" Yahiko shook his head: "Such a country that is destined to embark on the road of war does not match my ideals, so I am I will not join Yuyin Village!"

"You!" Hanzo gritted his teeth: "Since you know everything, you should know that there is no other way to go in the Land of Rain except for this road! Where else can you go if you don't join Yuyin Village? Develop your Xiao Organization? That is a dead end! The peace achieved by making compromises is nothing more than turning Yuyin Village into a lamb at the mercy of others!"

Yahiko shook his head, is the Akatsuki organization a dead end?

I already know it!

So, I have already followed Senior Jing Yun, and I am ready to follow the path of Yunye Society!

"Sorry!" Yahiko stood up, turned around and was about to leave!

"You want to go?" Hanzo called.

"Hanzo-sama, do you still want to keep me here?" Yahiko's tone was a little sad, after all, Sun Jingyun had already deduced this result for him.

I just didn’t expect that Hanzo would really choose this.

"The Kingdom of Rain is too small to accommodate two organizations!" Hanzo shook his head, "Let me teach you a lesson. Even organizations that have good intentions towards you must speculate on them with the greatest malice." !"

"Go!"

"boom!"

With an explosion, several nearby rocks exploded. The shadowy figure appeared around the negotiation venue, and the moment he appeared, he launched an attack on the five members of the Akatsuki organization!

Nagato's eyes moved, and a surging impact spread out with him as the center, directly scattering these people.

This is a reincarnation eye ability that he has just explored recently, and he is not yet proficient in using it.

However, the hearts of the few were still undecided, and another figure emerged from under their feet, and the rabbit fluttered and fell, and they directly captured Xiao Nan who was surrounded by five people!

By the time the four of them reacted, Konan had a kunai around his neck!

"This is the second lesson, no matter how weak the enemy is, you must do your best!" Hanzo pulled Konan over, and then put the kunai against her neck: "Yahiko, if you want her to survive, then you Kill yourself with the kunai in your hand!"
