Chapter 249：

In Orochimaru's laboratory.

Itachi was lying quietly, his eyes fused after all.

Orochimaru didn't dare to be careless.

Itachi was ordered to stay in bed.

Itachi had been in pain since the beginning of the operation to connect the nerves, but the pain had gradually subsided in the past few days.

However, the eyes will still experience pain every once in a while, and after each pain, the pupil power will improve.

Itachi recorded them all one by one.

Shisui was responsible for taking care of Itachi's daily life and talking to Itachi every day.

Orochimaru would come once a day, remove the gauze and change Itachi's dressing, observe the fusion of the two eyes, and make records.

The two pairs of eyes in Itachi's sockets have now been connected together, now looking a bit like a fallen figure 8.

The fusion speed of Itachi's eyes was slower than expected, but this was not a bad thing for Itachi.

The longer fusion time allows Itachi to have a longer period of time to increase his pupil power.

After Fugaku's eyes were removed, he felt no discomfort.

Because he was blind before.

But when outsiders saw his sunken eyelids, they were still a little scared.

Ever since the Third Hokage pushed Orochimaru out.

People from a certain ninja clan would often send their disabled people to Orochimaru.

These are all people who have exchanged certain interests with the Third Hokage.

As we all know, biological science requires a large number of in vivo experiments.

And these people who came to his door became Orochimaru's guinea pigs.

Cloning technology is not that easy, and there is a risk of failure.

Once it fails, deformed limbs may be born. The money spent is also very large.

Now, someone is telling Orochimaru.

Orochimaru doesn't need to spend money, Orochimaru can also accumulate experience and earn reputation.

The Third Hokage was also able to make good friends with all major ninja clans.

That's a lot of birds with one stone.

On the Uchiha side, Natsuki still distributed money to each ninja clan simply and crudely.

Many people feel like Ming Jing.

Uchiha Natsuki now has to compete with Orochimaru for reputation.

…

Water Kingdom Battlefield

Jinlian Island, Kirigakure's stronghold.

Since the last time Kirigakure failed to attack Kumogakure.

Kirigakure entered into a very passive situation.

When it comes to attacking, no one can beat the Raikage.

Not to mention Raikage's high-speed assault, even if Raikage doesn't activate the Thunder Chakra mode, his body's defense is ridiculously strong.

Those with less strength will not break the defense at all.

If they don't attack, they can only wait for Kumogakure's large army to arrive.

The Akatsuki organization got off to a good start at the beginning. After that, neither Deidara nor the Red Sand Scorpion was left behind.

The waterfall was also injured and disappeared.

The current members of the Akatsuki organization are Juuzou Juzo, Kisame Kisaki, and Zabuza.

Today Kisame came over and brought the news Terumi Mei had been waiting for.

The leader of the Akatsuki, Tendo Pain, has arrived.

"Now that he's here, why don't you come out to meet him?"

Terumi Mei asked doubtfully.

Kisame shook his head:

"The leader is going to explore the terrain so that we can take action when Kumogakure's large army arrives."

"The leader will attack the rear of Kumogakure when Kumogakure's large force arrives."

Terumi Mei was confused when she heard:

"Attack the rear? How to attack the rear? Kumogakure has five thousand people."

"Even if you Akatsuki are powerful, you can't just rush into Kumogakure."

Kisame grinned: "You will know when the time comes."

…

Chapter 301 Payne falling from the sky

Kisame didn't have to hide Terumi Mei.

But Kisame didn't know how the leader would attack. I can't explain why.

Terumi Mei had no choice but to go to Loquat Juzo. After all, Loquat Juzo has returned to Kirigakure now and is considered one of his own.

There should be some information from him.

After Terumi Mei told Loquat Juuzang what she was worried about.

Loquat Juuzang, however, has great confidence in the leader of the Akatsuki organization.

"Mizukage-sama, you don't have to worry at all. The leader of the Akatsuki organization is very strong. If he chooses to attack Kumogakure's rear."

"Then we just need to focus on the frontal battlefield."

Terumi Mei recognized the series of performances of the Akatsuki organization.

Just seriously injuring Kirabi and Yukito saved Kirigakure a lot of losses.

However, Terumi Mei was still very worried about the battle of Kumogakure's large force landing.

If Kirigakure hadn't been at the end of his rope, he wouldn't have put his hope in a mercenary organization.

Loquat Juzo was really worried when he saw Terumi Mei, so he revealed a secret to Terumi Mei.

"Mizukage-sama, let me reveal some information to you."

Loquat Juuzang had a smile on his face:

"Why do I trust the leader of the Akatsuki organization so much?"

Terumi Mei was also a little curious: "Tell me about it?"

Loquat Juuzang thought that Payne would appear in everyone's eyes on the battlefield anyway.

So I told Terumi Mei:

"The leader of the Akatsuki organization is named Payne. He possesses the legendary eye of the immortal, the Eye of Samsara."

! !

Terumi Mei's face was full of surprise: "Reincarnation Eye? Are you sure? Isn't this what the legendary Six Paths Sages have?"

Loquat Juuzang smiled bitterly and said: "It's true, I can't even survive a single move in Pain's hands."

"Penn's Samsara Eye is not only very powerful in combat, it also has many special abilities."

"Although Kumogakure has 5,000 men, if Pain said he wanted to attack the rear, it means he must be sure."

Terumi Mei was shocked that Payne, the leader of the Akatsuki organization, had the reincarnation eye.

But at this time, the stronger Payne's ability, the more at ease she feels.

"I can rest assured that."

Terumi Mei felt relieved and waited for Kumogakure's large army to land.

…

The front line of the water kingdom battlefield.

Kumogakure's large army finally arrived.

Countless ships began to approach the seaside, and Raikage and others also arrived.

to pick up others ashore.

Many spies are checking Kirigakure's movements.

Everyone knew that Kirigakure would not let Kumogakure come ashore so easily.

Kirigakure has indeed gathered people here.

But they did not attack immediately, but kept staring at Kumogakure's side.

The people watching Kumogakure began to get off the boat.

There are too many people in Yunyin, the ones in front are still falling, and those behind are still on the sea.

At this time, high in the sky, Payne put a hand on Xiaonan while staring at Kumogakure below.

"Xonan, as expected, the balance maintained by the tailed beast is too fragile."

Xiaonan saw the ships going to Jinlian Island below and sighed:

"Yes, even the Kingdom of Water, one of the five major kingdoms, will still be invaded."

Payne's reaction time seemed to take a little longer. He looked down, paused for a few seconds, and then said:

"After Kumogakure got the news that Kirigakure had no Jinchuuriki, he couldn't wait to invade and ignite the war in the land of Water Country."

"As long as we are strong, we want to conquer other countries, without even considering how many civilians will die if we start a war."

"Xiamu is right. When there is a greater threat, these people will know that peace is hard-won."

"Now they need to feel the pain so they know how valuable life is."

Konan already knew Nagato's plan and said with some worry:

"Do you want to activate that technique? You are using the relay method to transmit chakra."

After several more seconds, Pain said: "This is the safest method. I'm sure Obito is nearby."

"He is in the dark, and we cannot expose him."

"Although there is a certain delay in this state, the distance is far enough and it is very safe."

Konan knew that Nagato had been recovering for this attack and had also developed the "relay" method that Natsuki mentioned.

Relatively speaking, it is relatively reassuring. Nagato's current body is two hundred kilometers away from here in a straight line.

The body is quite safe.

The disadvantage is that after releasing that move, Heavenly Dao will lose control.

But they have prepared backup plans.

Konan glanced at Kumogakure who was landing below.

"Okay then, is this location suitable?"

Pain looked coldly at Kumogakure below, who was full of fighting spirit, landing and preparing to invade the Kingdom of Water.

"Just right here..."

Xiaonan responded, and her whole body turned into paper, slowly floating away, and the paper wings behind her flew to Payne's back.

But the paper on it is also gradually dissipating.

It turns out that this Xiaonan is a paper clone.
