After traveling through time, I became friends with Tsunade

The heavy rain in the Rain Country is still falling continuously, and the raindrops seem endless, as if they will never stop.

Nagato, who was walking at the front of the team, slowly raised his head and stared at the sky that was so gloomy that it seemed to be dripping with water, muttering to himself:

"We should be arriving at the place we agreed to meet with Hanzo soon. I wonder how Konan is doing now."

At this moment, Yahiko beside him clenched his fists tightly, his eyes revealed an extremely cold light, and he gritted his teeth and said:

"We have been working tirelessly for the peace in our hearts and have always persisted, but why did it turn out like this..."

Seeing Yahiko like this, Nagato's heart was also filled with strong waves, and he also clenched his fists tightly.

The pair of Samsara eyes stared at the front with great sharpness, as if to penetrate the endless rain curtain, and said in a firm and resolute tone:

"If anything happens to Xiaonan, we will work together to completely overthrow this already terminally ill country!"

The Akatsuki member next to them also spoke up:

"We are almost at the place we agreed to meet with Hanzo. Shouldn't we be more cautious? In case there is an ambush there..."

However, Yahiko suddenly interrupted him at this moment:

"We have to get there as soon as possible..."

Before Yahiko's words fell completely, a burst of extremely miserable screams suddenly came from the back of their team.

Hearing the screams coming from behind, Yahiko and Nagato's faces changed instantly and they turned their heads hurriedly.

Just as they saw the jungle they had just passed, countless Rain Ninjas suddenly rushed out.

Countless senbon, kunai, and shurikens were thrown out like dense raindrops. In just one encounter, more than half of the other members of the Akatsuki organization were killed or injured.

Seeing this, Nagato hurriedly organized the remaining men to defend, but the number of enemies was too great.

Although they have become the second largest organization outside of the Hidden Rain Village, the gap between them and the Hidden Rain Village, which has been established for decades, is still huge.

Moreover, Hanzo's powerful strength and deterrence made many people feel afraid and stay away from him.

In just a few minutes, the huge team of hundreds of people was almost all killed by the cruel knife of the Rain Ninja. In the end, only a few people led by Yahiko and Nagato survived.

On the top of the high slope in the distance, the figures of Hanzo and Konan suddenly appeared.

As for Xiaonan, her slender body was splashed with a layer of oil.

As a result, the paper escape technique that she was originally good at completely lost its effectiveness at this moment, and she was easily tied up by Hanzo.

Hanzo suppressed the struggling Konan and sneered coldly at Yahiko and Nagato below:

"Humph, it's time to end your childish ninja game, you little brats."

Yahiko shouted at the top of his lungs: "Why? We just want to save the country, for the sake of peace!"

Hanzo seemed to be oblivious to Yahiko's shout and simply responded with disdain:

"Save this country? Just relying on a few of you little brats? Haha...

It seems that you don't understand the survival rules of this world at all. Even if what you said is true, there can only be one leader in the Rain Country!"

As he spoke, Hanzo slowly pulled out a sharp kunai from behind his back and pressed it against Konan's white throat:

"Let me think about how to deal with you ignorant brats."

While speaking, Hanzo seemed to have thought of an idea. Even though he was wearing a gas mask, one could feel his malicious expression.

Then, he threw out another kunai, which stabbed straight in front of Nagato, and then he spoke:

"It's you, red-haired brat. Go and kill your leader. In this way, this woman can live, and so can you."

When Nagato heard this, his body trembled violently. He tried hard not to look at Konan, but just stared at Yahiko, falling into deep entanglement and struggle.

On one side is Yahiko, whom I regard as my elder brother, and on the other side is Konan. How should I choose?

Is it true that only one can survive?

Konan, who was subdued by Hanzo, screamed desperately:

"Nagato, Yahiko is the leader of Akatsuki. Even without me, Akatsuki can still achieve peace in this country!"

But Yahiko beside him also said: "Nagato, do it, then you and Konan should leave here quickly and go find teacher Jiraiya."

Nagato stared at the two of them blankly. At this moment, he had no idea what to do.

Just when Nagato was at a loss, Hanzo suddenly shouted angrily:

"Red-haired brat! Do you think you still have the strength to bargain with me? If you don't pick up the kunai and fight, none of you three will survive!"

Seeing that Hanzo's kunai had already left a shallow bloody mark on Konan's throat, Nagato subconsciously reached out and picked up the kunai in panic.

With his hands shaking violently, Nagato tightly grasped the kunai and muttered to himself: "Konan, Yahiko, what should I do?"

After not getting a response for a long time, Nagato subconsciously turned around and wanted to see Yahiko's expression.

However, when he turned his head, he was surprised to see Yahiko rushing towards him recklessly and hitting the kunai in his hand directly.

"Hey hey...Yahiko!"

Nagato stared at the kunai that pierced Yahiko's body, his mind going blank in an instant.

At this moment, Yahiko's weak but firm voice came from my ears:

"You and Konan, you must live well no matter what. Don't forget what Jiraiya-sensei said, you are the savior of this world. If you... maybe you can..."

Before he could finish his words, Yahiko had already used up all his strength. His body fell limply to the ground, splashing water all over the place, and he gradually fainted on the ground.

"Yahiko..."

Konan yelled while looking at Yahiko.

Hanzo watched the "good show" he directed with great satisfaction, and said proudly to the people around him:

"Do it!"

Upon hearing the order, the surrounding Rain Ninjas threw out the various ninja tools in their hands with force.

All of a sudden, countless shurikens, kunai, etc. flew towards Nagato and his companions like raindrops.
