Konoha Tatsuno

Chunqingji is an unknown town in the west of Tianzhi Country, with a population of less than 2000 people living in the town.

However, the people in Chunqingji can often see many ninjas wandering around the town.

The reason why these ninjas often appear in Chunqingji is that there is a large-scale underground black market stronghold here.

The black market stronghold was set up on the street south of Chunqingji. Apart from two scattered inns available for residence, the only black market stronghold left on the entire street was the solitary black market stronghold.

The buildings built next to the streets are only the entrances to the black market stronghold, and most of its buildings are built underground.

At the entrance of the stronghold, two men wearing black and red cloud robes entered the underground black market.

Both men were tall and burly, one of them was carrying a big knife behind his back, and the other was carrying a corpse.

The man carrying the body was Kakuzu, a member of the Akatsuki organization, and the other person was Iwamoto, codenamed three, who had just joined the Akatsuki organization.

In the original plot, Iwamoto was the unknown sidekick who was burned to death by Kakuzu's fire escape.

"Oops! Uncle Kakuzu, you have completed another big task!"

In the underground black market, seeing the two Kakuzu arriving, the person in charge of this black market base immediately greeted them with a smile.

Kakuzu is a frequent visitor to the underground black market. This old monster who has lived for 81 years is already a well-known celebrity in the underground black market.

The quantity and quality of the underground black market tasks he completed can be said to be the best in the entire ninja world.

Moreover, according to information obtained from the underground black market, Kakuzu joined an organization called Akatsuki more than three years ago.

This is a ninja organization that is extremely difficult to mess with. It is impossible to find out the detailed information of this organization even with the intelligence gathering capabilities of the underground black market.

"Hurry up and get the body examined by me."

Seeing the person in charge of the stronghold, Kakuzu didn't say much nonsense and directly handed over the corpse he was carrying to the other party for disposal.

"Okay, Mr. Kakuzu, please wait a moment."

Upon seeing this, the person in charge of the stronghold quickly ordered people to dispose of the body, and immediately cashed in the reward after confirming that it was correct.

More than ten minutes later, Kakuzu and Iwamoto walked out of the underground black market.

As soon as they walked out of the stronghold, their bodies shook slightly at the same time.

They felt the waves of missing coming from the ring on their hands.

This is Payne, the leader of the Akatsuki organization, calling them.

The two looked at each other and immediately disappeared in a flash.

After several leaps, they appeared on a mountainous area outside Chunqing Market.

The two sat down and began to form seals.

In an instant, the two consciousnesses of Kakuzu appeared in a mysterious space.

This mysterious space is a huge cave, and the body of the Ten-Tails is stored in this cave.

The consciousness bodies of Kakuzu and Iwamoto appeared on a finger of the outside demon.

At this time, Kakuzu and the two of them were not the only consciousnesses appearing in this space.

The conscious bodies of Tendo Payne, Xiao Nan, Orochimaru, Scorpion, and Zetsu each also appeared on the finger of a heretic demon.

This is one of the abilities of the Phantom Body Technique, the Samsara Eye, performed by Tendo Payne, the leader of the Akatsuki organization.

Ignoring space and distance, the consciousness bodies of Akatsuki members with rings can be gathered together at a distance to facilitate the gathering of Akatsuki members.

"I have called everyone here today to announce something. There is news from Tianzhiguo that Anshitang has established a ninja village there called Yaoyin Village.

An Shitang’s strength and financial resources should not be underestimated. They may have an impact on our plans in the future. I am going to send someone to find out their details. Kakuzu, Scorpion, tell me where you are."

In the space, Tiandao Payne's voice sounded.

Today, there are only 7 members of the Akatsuki organization, and the only ones who can go out in pairs are Kakuzu and Iwamoto, as well as Orochimaru and Scorpion.

After hearing what Tiandao Pain said, several members of the Akatsuki organization present looked surprised.

A small country is going to build a ninja village. This kind of news is not worthy of concern for the members of the powerful Akatsuki organization.

But this matter involves An Shitang, so it deserves their attention!

It is said that behind Anshido there is a strong man who has activated the Mangekyō Sharingan.

They have never seen the true strength of the powerful Mangekyō Sharingan.

But judging from his courage to claim to be Uchiha Madara and his record of defeating the tailed beast-turned-Seven-Tailed Jinchuuriki, his strength cannot be underestimated.

"We are in Tian Country now"

Kakuzu was the first to answer.

Since being tamed by Tendo Pain, Kakuzu has been diligently doing his job of making money.

"We are in the Kingdom of Frost, not far from the Kingdom of Fields."

On the other side, Xie followed suit.

"Okay! Scorpion, Orochimaru, it's up to you to go to Tian Country and secretly investigate the situation of An Shitang and the Yao Yin Village.

Kakuzu and Iwamoto, you will continue to perform your original tasks. The organization is in urgent need of financial support now."

After hearing this, Tiandao Payne was silent for a while and said.

After listening to Tiandao Payne's arrangement, the four of them nodded silently, and then the consciousness formed by the wave of thoughts began to slowly disappear into this space.

On the high tower of Yuyin Village, Tiandao Payne and Xiao Nan also recovered their thoughts.

Xiaonan turned to look at Tendo Payne and asked doubtfully: "Kakuzu and the others are obviously in Tian Country, why did you send Orochimaru, Scorpion and the others to investigate?"

Tendo Payne said: "Iwamoto's strength is too weak, and Kakuzu doesn't look down on him at all. An Shitang's strength is not weak. If they are sent as a group, the organization may lose another member."

Xiao Nan frowned: "But Orochimaru also obviously has different intentions. Is it dangerous to send them to Scorpion?"

Tiandao Payne shook his head: "Don't worry! After entering the organization, Scorpion's body has been transformed, and his strength has been greatly improved.

The reason why he was defeated by you in the first battle was just because his ability happened to be restrained by you. If you sent several other Pain attacks, it would probably be difficult to take him down."

Xiaonan was speechless.

In a hidden basement in Kirigakure Village, two figures in black robes were gathering here.

One of them is sitting on the main seat, and the other is kneeling on one knee, which is obviously a master-slave relationship.

The man kneeling on one knee said: "Sir, after our many efforts, we have successfully contacted several major families, and they all agree with our plan."

After hearing the report from his subordinates, the man on the throne said: "Are these families confirmed to be reliable?"

The black-robed subordinate said: "The confirmation is reliable! During the time of the Third Mizukage-sama, they were the victims of that kind of policy. Now that Mizukage-sama wants to restart that kind of policy, the target is already aimed at them. They must rise up." "Resistance"

Hearing this, the man in the main seat fell into deep thought.

After a long time, he said: "Okay! Then you should continue to contact other families carefully. When the time is right, we will immediately launch a coup."

"Yes! My lord is wise!"

The black-robed subordinate said in an excited tone.
