Chapter 109 Partners Fight Seven, Heading to Iwagakure
The Land of Rain is a small country, so it's not easy to find a place where it doesn't rain.

Ah Wei emerged from the ground, surrounded by the morning mist and humid air. Looking at the clouds drifting across the sky, he knew it wouldn't be long before it rained here!
Looking into the distance, dark clouds gathered, lightning flashed and thunder roared, and torrential rain poured down, accompanied by a sudden gust of wind.

"Let's go find the dragon vein next!" Ah Wei muttered to himself.

The ruins of Loulan are located in the Land of Wind, where a dragon vein exists, representing endless chakra.

The power of the dragon vein can reverse time and space.

Compared to the chakra of the tailed beasts, the dragon veins are no weaker.

But the Dragon Vein only appears in the movie, and it's not necessarily something you can find in this world. Since Ah Wei was bored, he just went to the Land of Wind to look for it.

If we find it and gain control of the dragon vein's power, it's unimaginable how powerful we would become.

However, just as Ah Wei was about to make a move, he felt a pulling force coming from the ring he was wearing.

They knew that it was Nagato using the Illusionary Body Technique.

After sensing his surroundings, Ah Wei slipped into a crevice underground and sat down cross-legged.

In the dim cave, the Zen lamp flickered, and two illusions appeared, with seven-colored patterns appearing on them. One was Pain, and the other was Ah Wei.

I didn't see Sasori, Kakuzu, or anyone else either.

This surprised Awei as well.

“I have a task for you,” Payne said in a deep voice.

"A mission?" Ah Wei became curious and waited for Payne to continue.

“The organization needs more members. We can recruit Deidara, a disciple of the Third Tsuchikage Onoki. This operation will be led by you, and Uchiha Ichiba will be your partner,” Pain continued.

Akatsuki has gathered a great deal of intelligence, with the five great ninja villages being a key focus.

I have some knowledge of the geniuses from the five great ninja villages.

Iwagakure is currently facing a talent shortage, with few geniuses. The most outstanding among them is Deidara, Onoki's disciple.

Although Deidara's strength is not yet very high, his abilities are exactly what Akatsuki needs.

With Deidara's abilities, future plans will be much smoother.

Ah Wei pondered for a moment. According to the plot, after Itachi joined Akatsuki, he went to Iwagakure with Kisame Hoshigaki and Sasori to invite Deidara to join. The naive Deidara was only 12 years old at the time and fought against Itachi, who was less than 14 years old. However, he was defeated by the Sharingan genjutsu. After that, Deidara joined Akatsuki and worked hard to train his left eye to fight against the Sharingan genjutsu.

However, it is only the 54th year of Konoha, the Uchiha clan has not been wiped out, and Itachi joined Akatsuki earlier than the main storyline.

Orochimaru was also a member of the Akatsuki organization.

Azure Dragon was supposed to be Deidara's codename in the Akatsuki organization, but now it belongs to Wei. I wonder what codename Deidara would have gotten if he had joined the Akatsuki.

But it should start with an intern position.

It's undeniable that Deidara is a genius, but he's not strong enough yet.

……

He opened his eyes and sensed the underground current flowing dozens of meters below. As for how long and how deep this underground current was, he had no idea.

and so……

Should we go to Iwagakure to invite Deidara to join Akatsuki?
It seems quite interesting to temporarily team up with someone who can take on seven opponents.

Itachi's story of annihilating his clan would be incomplete without wiping out an entire clan. Whether it was the Uchiha clan, the Sarutobi clan, or the Shimura clan is irrelevant!

"Even if he fights seven opponents, he probably wouldn't want Pain to know that he's a spy planted in Akatsuki by the Third Hokage!" Awei stroked his chin, secretly calculating.

In addition, Awei is quite interested in the flying ninjutsu of Iwagakure.

Throughout Naruto, flying ninjutsu is quite rare.

Deidara's explosive clay can transform into birds that can carry people and fly. In addition, some umbrella-type ninja tools can also fly at low altitudes, but all of them rely on external objects.

In terms of his own abilities, he possesses only the techniques of Super Light-Heavy Rock Technique, Shikigami Dance, Rinnegan, and Peacock Mystic Art.

I was planning to go to the Land of Wind to look for the dragon vein, but I didn't expect to suddenly get a quest.

Forget it, there's no rush to find the dragon vein; we can deal with it later.

Since we're going to Iwagakure with Itachi, we need to find Itachi first.

Itachi was not yet a formal member of Akatsuki and did not have his own ring, so Pain could not contact Itachi directly through the ring.

Itachi is no longer in Amegakure.

But with Ah Wei's current perception and the information he has, finding Itachi in a short time shouldn't be difficult.

While thinking, Ah Wei used the Mayfly Technique.

……

Itachi, dressed in a black trench coat, walked through the forest, his face expressionless, his nasolabial folds appearing even deeper.

Suddenly, Itachi stopped and looked around.

"Not bad perception." Awei emerged from the ground not far behind Itachi and said with a smile.

Turning to look at Awei, Itachi's three-tomoe Sharingan flickered, and there was apprehension in his eyes.

"Don't be nervous, I mean no harm." Awei opened his arms and shrugged.

However, the weasel did not let its guard down.

"Pain has given us a mission: to team up and go to Iwagakure to invite Deidara, the disciple of the Third Tsuchikage Onoki, to join Akatsuki," Awei said with a grin.

Upon hearing this, Itachi was also somewhat surprised.

Deidara?
Itachi had also heard of this name.

After all, he was a disciple of the Third Tsuchikage and was said to be a rare genius of Iwagakure.

A genius even younger than him.

Pain actually wants to invite Deidara to join Akatsuki?
"Invite the disciple of the Third Tsuchikage to join the organization?" Itachi wanted to confirm.

"If the Third Hokage's disciple can join the organization, it's not surprising that the Third Tsuchikage's disciple can join as well!" Awei laughed.

Itachi:......

Indeed, Orochimaru, a disciple of the Third Hokage, is now a formal member of the Akatsuki organization.

But Orochimaru was already a Konoha rogue ninja, while Deidara's situation was quite different.

“Deidara is younger than you and inexperienced. If you just coax him a little, he’ll happily join the organization. That kid doesn’t have the mindset of a Tsuchikage,” Awei said to Itachi in a serious tone.

A murderous glint appeared in Itachi's eyes.

Who is being implied here?

He fought seven people at the age of seven and was praised by the Third Hokage for having the mindset of a Hokage. Is it wrong to think that way?

After talking to Awei for a while, Itachi got a little annoyed and simply stopped talking to him.

Since it was a mission given by Payne, we can only do our best to complete it.

Of course, it also depends on the mission. If he were asked to assassinate a member of the Uchiha clan, he would probably do it, but if he were asked to assassinate someone like the Third Hokage, he would be in a difficult position.

When Itachi remained silent, Ah Wei lost interest in talking to himself.

Iwagakure is one of the five great ninja villages and the only one in the Land of Earth.

The Land of Rain is situated between three major powers.

Bordering three major powers also limited the development of the Rain Country.

Furthermore, the abundance of rainfall in the Land of Rain also became a problem. Since the Land of Rain is not very large, it wouldn't take Awei and Itachi long to cross it.

As one steps into the territory of the Land of Earth, one sees vast stretches of desolate, rocky land.

Ah Wei wasn't surprised by this.

Although the Land of Earth has a large territory, most of it is covered by rocky terrain, making it a desolate place with little vegetation.

Furthermore, the border of the Land of Earth is connected to rocky mountains, blocking transportation with other countries.

As the north wind blows across the mountains, large amounts of small rocks are carried to other countries, a natural phenomenon known as 'rock rain'.

“The Land of Wind is mostly desert, and the Land of Earth is mostly rocky terrain; both are resource-poor, so it’s understandable that they covet the riches of the Land of Fire,” Ah Wei thought to himself.

As for Yunyin, the towering peaks are shrouded in mist and thunder is deafening, but in terms of resources, it is actually quite good.

On the other side of the Misty Land, the Land of Water is an archipelago. Not to mention the resources on the islands, they can also obtain resources from the sea.

But for now, the Land of Fire still has the richest resources and the most suitable climate for people to live in.

In the several Shinobi World Wars, mutual hatred was only one factor; competing for resources, demonstrating strength, and flexing muscles to obtain more mission requests were also objectives.

As for the idea of ​​achieving peace through mutual understanding, that's utter nonsense.

You expect the ninjas from the deserts of the Land of Wind and the rocky terrain of the Land of Earth to understand the ninjas living a comfortable life in the Land of Fire? The comparison will only make them feel resentful.

Having a powerful military force can also maintain peace, such as when Hashirama Senju was alive.

The Land of Lightning is covered with rolling mountains, but the Land of Earth also has its share of mountains, large and small.

Walking to Iwagakure Village inevitably involves climbing mountains and crossing valleys.

At this moment, Awei secretly complained that the world's technology tree was too crooked.

It has a refrigerator, a toilet, and a radio, but why isn't there a helicopter?
Traveling often involves running, while intelligence is delivered via birds, ninja dogs, toads, snakes, slugs...

It's just radio; it's useless at a slightly longer distance.

It can only be said that chakra created powerful ninjas, but the power of ninjas limited the development of technology.

When ninjas and technology clash, the former should naturally be chosen, since ninjas are the dominant force in this world.

It is because of the existence of ninjas that the world's technology tree is so skewed.

The system of coexistence between the state and ninja villages has also created 'deformed monsters'.

However, Ah Wei only thought about it but didn't say it out loud.

Changing the world isn't important; what matters most is how to acquire more chakra and emotional points.

To obtain a large amount of chakra emotion points, one must have someone with a huge amount of chakra watch the live stream and experience strong emotional fluctuations.

However, those who possess a large amount of chakra are not simple; they often have a strong will and their own ninja way, and they cannot easily generate strong emotional fluctuations.

Therefore, emotional ninjas are good targets for Ah Wei, and it would be even better if these ninjas also possessed a large amount of chakra.

The skunk next to him rarely shows strong emotional fluctuations, so it's not the type that Awei likes.

As for Obito and Naruto, they are both good.

However, skunks are quite capable and have considerable value.

In fact, Awei could easily have set up a hot air balloon or subdued a large bird that could carry people, but that would be too conspicuous and difficult to hide from the Iwa ninja.

“Once we get near Iwagakure, I’ll make some noise to lure Onoki away, and you can take the opportunity to sneak into the village and take Deidara away.” Awei told One Against Seven what he was planning.

Actually, Ah Wei really wanted to experience the Dust Escape technique.

There are many bloodline limits in the ninja world, but bloodline elimination is much rarer. The Third Tsuchikage's Dust Release is a bloodline elimination.

As for Deidara's Explosion Release, it's at most a bloodline limit, but it seems to be a secret technique.

Itachi looked at Awei with some surprise.

According to Awei, it's not just Onoki who's been drawn out; there will definitely be some Iwagakure ninja involved as well.

There must be at least several thousand ninjas in Iwagakure right now!
Most of the Iwa ninja are responsible for guarding the borders of the Land of Earth.

Whether facing Onoki alone or being surrounded by a group of Iwa ninja, it's no joke.

Itachi originally thought that the two of them could sneak into Iwagakure, find Deidara, and invite him to join Akatsuki. If Deidara refused, they could consider taking Deidara away, but it would depend on the actual situation.

But I never expected Ah Wei to go this far.

"Okay!" Surprised as he was, Itachi agreed.

For Itachi, it's better that Awei went too far.

After all, this Ah Wei is too dangerous. It wouldn't be bad if he lost his life in Iwagakure.

With Ah Wei drawing fire, it would be much easier for him to infiltrate Iwagakure.

……

Outside Iwagakure, several ninja squads patrolled the area, each squad equipped with a sensory ninja.

Suddenly, the sensory ninja of Class C changed his expression. He was a short, fat middle-aged man with short brown hair, thick eyebrows and a short beard. He was strong and had not only powerful sensory abilities but also amazing strength. He was a special Jonin of Iwagakure.

"Mudslide, what's wrong?" His two companions looked at him in confusion.

“A powerful surge of chakra.” Mudstone’s expression was more solemn than ever before, and cold sweat beaded on his forehead.

Although he was only a special Jonin, Mudstone's chakra was not small. In Konoha, it would be around 0.9 chakra. The chakra he sensed now was at least dozens of times that of him.

The matter was of great importance, so the three of them, including Mudstone, did not act rashly. They left Mudstone and one ninja behind, while the other ninja quickly returned to the village to report to the Third Tsuchikage.

Inside the village, Onoki rubbed his back; he was old and had strained his back again.

Seeing a Chunin who should have been patrolling outside the village rushing over, Onoki's expression turned serious.

"Third Hokage, Mudstone sensed a massive amount of chakra outside the village. According to him, it was at least dozens of times stronger than his own."

Upon hearing this, Onoki's expression also turned serious.

It so happened that Onoki's son, Kyoto, his disciple, Akatsuchi, and his granddaughter, Kurotsuchi, were also there.

Akatsuchi wore a Rock Hermit hat, was enormous, had a round nose, wore a yellow scarf around his neck, and was dressed in a Rock Hermit vest.

Huang Tu wears a red ninja hat, has a large nose and a tuft of beard, is huge, wears a red tight-fitting combat uniform with brown chainmail over it, and has a red long sleeve over his left arm.

As for Hei Tu, he had short black hair, black pupils, and delicate features. He wore a tight-fitting top and fishnet pants.

Mudstone is a special Jonin in the village, and his chakra reserves are considerable, dozens of times greater than Mudstone's. This...

The red soil, yellow soil, and black soil were all taken aback.

"Summon the Anbu immediately and come with me to take a look," Onoki said in a deep voice.

Without considering the tailed beast power of the Iwagakure Jinchuriki, no one in Iwagakure has dozens of times more chakra than Mudstone, and even Onoki doesn't have such a massive amount of chakra.

Soon, the Iwagakure Anbu were also summoned.

Onoki was the first to fly out of the village.

The loess and red soil quickly caught up.

Black Soil wanted to join in the fun, but Yellow Soil told her to stay in the village.

When Onoki, Kurotsuchi, Akatsuchi, and the other Anbu ninjas left the village, Kurotsuchi also secretly ran out of the village, unaware that Itachi Uchiha had already infiltrated the village.
