Chapter 127: 127

As this place is at the intersection of major countries there are many fish and dragons here, and the terrain is also complicated. In addition, Hanzo has just died, and the territory of the Land of Rain is even more chaotic. It is the most suitable place to hide.

Danzo and Orochimaru wanted to hide here not only to avoid Konoha's pursuit, but also to rebuild their power in the Land of Rain so that they can make a comeback one day.

At this time, Danzo's subordinates tortured and interrogated the prisoners of Akatsuki.

"Akatsuki? Interesting."

After listening to this, Orochimaru's eyes flashed, and he commented in surprise, "I didn't expect such an organization full of naive ideals to be in a place like the Land of Rain, which is filled with war and killing."

And when he heard that the leaders of the Akatsuki were Yahiko, Konan and Nagato, he was even more shocked, and suddenly realized that those three were the three disciples that Jiraiya had originally accepted.

A few years ago, during the Second Ninja War, Konoha Sannin met three orphans in the Land of Rain.

At that time, Orochimaru proposed to kill three to relieve the pain of these orphans and help them free from this world. However, Jiraiya objected on the spot, expressing that he would stay to take care of the three and atone for Konoha's mistakes in the war.

During the Third Ninja War a few months ago, Jirai also received news that the three orphans he had taken in had died in the war in the Land of Rain, and he was still sad for a long time.

It now appears that the news of the three deaths was wrong.

What a coincidence.

Thinking of this, Orochimaru couldn't help but have a strong interest in the them and the Akatsuki organization they created.

Danzo on the side also revealed his intentions, and said solemnly: Read latest chapters at novelhall.com Only

"This Akatsuki is a good cover. We can use it to cover up our identity, and use Akatsuki's name to control the entire Land of rain and make Amegakure our base."

"Agreed. I think so too."

Orochimaru agreed.

However, he has a deeper purpose:

Over the years, Orochimaru has carried out a lot of experiments on himself with a rigorous and dedicated scientific research spirit, and has almost ruined this body.

Therefore, he secretly learned the S-rank forbidden technique - Living Corpse Reincarnation. This is a kind of ninjutsu that can transfer one's own spirit into another's body, thereby gaining eternal life.

'Now that my time is almost up, I will take this opportunity to inspect Jiraya's disciples.'

Orochimaru's plan was to choose the most suitable one from the three as his spiritual container.

'Yahiko, Konan, Nagato, I hope you don't disappoint me...'

He thought for a while in his heart, and stretched out his long tongue and licked his lips, as if he couldn't wait to enjoy some kind of delicious food.

"Lets go."

Following Danzo's order, the group took the prisoner of Akatsuki and ordered him to lead the way to Akatsuki's base.

Danzo looked back at the direction he came from.

'Hiruzen, just wait, I, Shimura Danzo will return to Konoha one day and get back what should belong to me.'

He swore silently in his heart.

Of course, there are also Hoshigaki Kisame.

That teenage kid, in front of so many people, slapped him wildly and poached his Sharingan, causing him to suffer a humiliation that he had never experienced in his life.

This hatred will never end.

Thinking of this, Danzo's eyes became bone-chilling. If he does not take revenge on Kisame, he swears not to be a human being.

But.

What Danzo and Orochimaru would never have imagined was

As soon as they left, Kisame disguised as Madara Uchiha appeared nearby.

Kisame was surprised.

Not long after he sneaked into the Land of Rain, he sensed the chakras of Danzo and others, so he followed the group and found that their target was the same as him, the Akatsuki.

'Isn't that a coincidence?'

When Orochimaru heard the words, he sighed and said faintly: "You should have heard of Konoha's current situation. Tsunade was taken away by Hoshigaki Kisame and became a hostage of Kirigakure. And Jiraya stayed in the village to protect it. He assists the third Hokage and handles various affairs. So this time, I lead the team alone. In short, I am willing to help you, let Akatsuki become the ruler of Amegakure, so as to restore the peace of this country. "

His words were very sincere, and there were no loopholes, making it hard to doubt.

"Great."

When Konan and Nagato heard him, they were no longer suspicious. The members of Akatsuki also showed joy and talked happily.

In their opinion, if there is Konoha's help, Akatsuki will undoubtedly become more powerful, and in the near future, will easily become the ruler of Amegakure.

Facing such a big temptation, only Yahiko was not dazzled by joy, but still maintained the greatest degree of rationality.

He was silent for a moment, and finally he slowly shook his head towards Orochimaru and firmly refused:

"Orochimaru-sama, Akatsuki has it's own ideas and ways of doing things. We will use Akatsuki's method to achieve peace in the Land of Rain, so we don't want to bother Konoha for help."

As Akatsuki's leader, he has to think about the entire organization and all his subordinates at all times, so he has to be cautious.

From Yahiko's point of view, it is really strange that Orochimaru suddenly came to the door, and it is very likely that his motive is not pure.

Orochimaru narrowed his eyes.

He wanted to continue to convince Yahiko, but Danzo behind him was impatient, and he just snorted and walked out of the crowd.

"Don't talk nonsense with them, Orochimaru. It's just a bunch of little devils, just take them down."

Danzo said dissatisfiedly, and made a gesture. A group of Root ninjas under him suddenly acted and surrounded the members of Akatsuki.

"Sure enough, I already knew that you were not a good man."

Seeing this, Yahiko also snorted coldly, turned to Konan, Nagato and others and shouted, "Prepare to fight!"

As soon he said that, the enemy on the opposite side rushed up and started a battle with Akatsuki's members.

For a time, the sound of the collision of the ninja tools, the explosion of the explosion tags, and the shouting and killing of both sides were mixed together.

These ninjas brought by Danzo are all elites from the Root, both in terms of numbers and strength, they are all significantly higher than Akatsuki.

Therefore, shortly after the battle began, the Akatsuki was suppressed by the enemy, and members were continuously defeated and fell back.

'Whoosh.'

Orochimaru jumped back and quickly exited the battlefield.

He didn't plan to take action, but observed the performance of the three from the outside, and evaluated them one by one from the bottom of his heart.

In this way, the most suitable candidate for the reincarnation is selected.

He was most interested in Akatsuki's leader, Yahiko, whose leadership ability and temperament left a deep impression on him when they first met.

However, it turns out that the greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment.

Orochimaru soon discovered that Yahiko's strength is not strong, the only thing he is good at is water release, and only ninjutsu such as water waves can be performed by him.

As a disciple taught by Jiraiya himself, and Akatsuki's leader, he should not be at this level.

Orochimaru was puzzled by this.

Suddenly, Yahiko is besieged by two root ninjas and knocked to the ground.

'Shhhhhh.'

At a critical juncture, Konan came to the rescue and threw a large number of paper shuriken to force the enemy back.

But in the next second, Yamato secretly attacked not far away, and manipulated a few wooden vines to drill out from the ground, tying Konan like a dumpling, and tightening it around her.

Seeing that she was about to be strangled to death, her body suddenly turned into pieces of paper, breaking away from the wood shackles and flew around.

A few seconds later, those pieces of paper gathered in another place and reassembled into Konan's body.

Paper clone.

Seeing this scene, Orochimaru finally brightened up.

"This ninjutsu created by using the characteristics of paper is very creative, at least better than that Yahiko."

He thought to himself, and became interested in Konan.
