[Event description: Under the influence of the reincarnation XX53562211 (Tao Pai Pai), Payne decided to give pain to the rulers of the world. Please complete the action of destroying the current rulers of the five major countries before the end of this mission world. This action is a special large-scale event.

Catherine looked at the space prompt in front of her, took a deep breath, and then continued to use the [Holy ARM] to heal Uchiha Itachi. This special magic tool from the [Legendary World of Magic Soldiers] has extremely strong functionality and applicability. Not only does it require mastering the energy of [magic power] to use it well, ordinary reincarnations can also use this magic tool to contact and control [magic power].

Therefore, ARM-type props are quite rare.

Catherine retracted her gaze. She actually noticed that the two silver rings on Tao Baibai's hands were most likely ARM, but the other party obviously had no intention of following the magic sequence, and the other party had previously asked her to join this special event.

The two of them had established initial trust, and Catherine began to use the props boldly, no longer afraid that Tao Baibai would attack her if they disagreed.

Her guess was correct. There would be no shortage of opportunities when following a guy like Tao Pai Pai. Although she didn't know what method the other party used, it was obvious that Nagato had been persuaded to start implementing the plan to collapse the five major nations.

"Aren't we going to conquer the five great nations? With our strength, it would be a better choice to attack the kings directly."

Catherine spoke while healing Uchiha Itachi. She actually had the answer in her mind, but she still asked deliberately. In fact, this was also a communication strategy, a way of speaking often used by those in a lower position to "please" those in a higher position.

Catherine laughed at herself in her heart. She had a very strong personality and she was the dominant one in the duo with [Luan]. But no matter how strong her personality was, when she was with such a madman, she would still remember her weak nature.

She had to start trying to get along better with Tao Baibai in the way she once hated the most.

Bai Cangshu was unaware of these little thoughts, or rather, he had no interest in wasting time thinking about what a reincarnation like Catherine was thinking.

Now, the first step of his special trial has entered the fifth day. With the defeat of Uchiha Shisui and the joining of Akatsuki, the first stage of the special trial has basically been completed.

In today's ninja world, if one wants to forcibly kill Hiranaka Hana in front of Pain and himself, it is impossible to do so except with the joint efforts of multiple Kage-level ninjas.

Therefore, he was thinking about what the second stage of this special trial would be. Judging from the experience of the special trial of the mortal sin system, the second stage would have a certain correlation with the first stage.

The first stage of [Trial of Sin: Sin and Punishment] is to learn any specialization from Tao Pai Pai, and the second stage is to prevent Tao Pai Pai from being killed by the Reincarnator;
Then Bai Cangshu has reason to believe that the first stage of [Trial of Virtue: Utmost Benevolence and Kindness], protecting Ping Zhonghua, is definitely related to the second stage in some way.

Because the force that is most closely involved with Hana Hiranaka is Konoha Village. The reason why the town where Hana Hiranaka lives was massacred was that her husband, Hana Hiranaka Minoru, passed on a top-secret intelligence from Konoha Village that [the Uchiha and Konoha high-level officials are at odds].

According to the usual nature of this space, the trial mission in the second phase will most likely be related to Konoha.

This was a major reason why Bai Cangshu came up with the [Konoha Collapse Plan].

Of course, he would not tell anyone this reason.

Bai Cangshu just looked at Uchiha Itachi's calm expression with interest. This mature-looking young man was obviously affected by the information that he deliberately released that Danzo possessed the Sharingan, and his [Will of Fire] was shaken.

People are often like this. Although they both stole the Sharingan, itachi would think it was natural for Haku Cangshu, a guy who was considered an "evil party" and an "evil person" in Uchiha Itachi's mind, to do such a thing. He did have disgust and hatred for him, but it was based on normal hostility.

But in Uchiha Itachi's view, it was even more unforgivable that Danzo, a high-ranking Konoha figure whom he regarded as his leader, had attempted to seize the Sharingan for his own use.

Bai Cangshu's mouth curled up. He had to admit that sometimes it was easier to be a bad guy, although... he never thought of himself as a bad guy.

"Konoha is now under close scrutiny from other ninja villages because of the leak of that intelligence. At this time, any disturbance in Konoha will trigger major actions from other ninja villages."

Tendo Pain spoke up to explain that although he was "instigated" by Tao Paipai and realized that the real decision makers of the war were not those ninjas, he had reservations about the other party's statement that there were minions of someone hiding behind the scenes within the Akatsuki organization.

He sent Jue away, but still explained the details of the mission to Konan. He could feel that Konan had been quite uneasy since Tao Paibai joined Akatsuki.

Konan lowered her eyelids, and understood the truth of the so-called [Konoha Collapse Plan]. As long as the [Akatsuki] organization dealt a heavy blow to Konoha at this time, then regardless of whether there was an internal struggle between the Uchiha clan and the Konoha high-level officials, the decline of Konoha was already a fact.

The other ninja villages would pounce on them like jackals seeing blood.

By that time, if Akatsuki were to withdraw and attack the capitals of several major countries, the pressure it would face would be minimal.

This is an irresistible conspiracy.

But at the same time, this action would kill far more people than she had previously expected.

And I'm afraid many of those who died were not ninjas.

Konan looked up at the sky of the Rain Land where rain and fog were still floating. She could no longer remember the warm dreams she had when Yahiko was alive.

Perhaps, that kind of peaceful and prosperous scene is destined to never be achieved in my generation. I only hope that through the killings committed by people like me, the world will truly become afraid of war...

"I will transform into Shura, and only then can I bring peace to the future."

Konan's murmurs, which sounded like a dream, fell into Uchiha Itachi's ears. The young man slowly sat up. He was pale and looked like he had just recovered from a serious illness, but the clear three-magatama Sharingan in his eyes still made others alert.

When Orochimaru saw that Uchiha Itachi had three magatama Sharingan at such a young age, he felt something strange about this genius of the Uchiha clan, whom he had heard about several times from his teacher. He had such a talent, but his eyes were as calm as dead water. He was different from those Uchiha who could not restrain their arrogance in their eyes. His calmness made it even more difficult to see through.

"I will transform into Shura..."

Uchiha Itachi murmured Konan's words, but his brother's appearance appeared in front of him.

He learned many secrets of the ninja world from Tao Paipai and Orochimaru. It turned out that behind those glorious heroes, there were dark facts as vast as the tide.

The Sand Village is like this, the Mist Village is like this, the Cloud Village is like this, and Konoha is no exception.

Ninjas are not heroes in the dark night at all. Ninjas are just weapons in the hands of those high-ranking officials.

Catherine accidentally met Uchiha Itachi's eyes. She was shocked by the calm and resolute look in the eyes of this boy who was only twelve or thirteen years old. She began to understand why the other party would do such a thing as massacring his relatives.

Uchiha Itachi was probably not without arrogance, but he was an extremely arrogant guy. Deep down, he only believed in his own judgment. When he thought that his clan had no future and only by exterminating the Uchiha could he save his brother, he did it.

He always believed that his own judgment was the most correct...

Catherine turned her head and looked at Tao Baibai. In a sense, these two people were probably the same kind. Coincidentally, he saw an undisguised smile on Tao Baibai's face.

"I can't pretend I didn't hear about the plan to destroy Konoha."

Uchiha Itachi dropped his hands, a strange aura began to emanate, the three magatama in his pupils rotated slightly, Orochimaru and Konan both lowered their bodies slightly, they felt a threat from this young man.

Pain Tendou stretched out his hand to stop the two men, and Bai Cangshu also stood in front of Uchiha Itachi.

"how do you want to do it?"

His hands also hung naturally at both sides of his body, but Itachi's Sharingan clearly noticed that although the other party seemed relaxed, his muscles were abnormally tense. He was afraid that with just a thought, that kind of rapid attack would pour down in an instant.

Uchiha Itachi looked at Tao Paibai. There was no respect for human life in the other's eyes. This was a madman who mastered absolute violence.

"To what extent will the so-called collapse of Konoha be achieved?"

"How many people were killed and how much infrastructure was destroyed."

Uchiha Itachi asked calmly, his attitude was no different from asking about the price of goods when buying vegetables, and Bai Cangshu's smile widened when he heard that.

"Is one-tenth enough? If not, how about one-eighth?"

Uchiha Itachi continued to speak, his tone becoming increasingly cold.

Just like the moral choice dilemma he had faced before, he once again made the most utilitarian choice. If some people had to be sacrificed, he could accept it, and he hoped that selective sacrifice could be made.

This kind of attitude is nothing more than treating human life as just a number.

But he firmly believed that since Konoha itself was not clean, perhaps getting rid of some termites would make Konoha better.

"Tao Baibai, if possible, can you let me join this plan? I hope to have the right to choose some shares."

Nagato looked at Uchiha Itachi through the Rinnegan of Tendo Pain. In a sense, the thinking of this young man was also extremely terrifying, but at this time, he no longer cared. As he said, he was a god without good or evil.

He doesn't want to make moral considerations, he just wants to make the world feel pain.

"More than half of the top leaders must be destroyed. At the same time, Konoha's defenses must be completely broken, and the ninja's ability to participate in the war must be reduced by more than 30%."

Pain's words could be regarded as his acceptance of Uchiha Itachi's joining.

Uchiha Itachi pulled out another sword from his back. He turned around and sat down alone, wiping the blade with coldness in his eyes.

The huge summoning beast kept running, and the few people quickly left the Rain Country and entered the Fire Country. Tomorrow would be the day when the operation to destroy Konoha would begin.

Bai Cangshu looked at the dense jungle and the border of the Fire Country. Now, many patrolling samurai and ninjas began to appear. But before they could raise a warning, the floating white paper covered their mouths and noses. They soon fell to the ground and died in despair.

Bai Cangshu came to Orochimaru at this time and said
"Orochimaru, you are indeed connected to the Konoha Collapse Plan."

Orochimaru didn't understand, but remained on guard.

Bai Cangshu stopped playing tricks and spoke out his real purpose.

"You have mastered the forbidden technique of Impure World Reincarnation, right? If possible, I hope you can do something for me..."

"I want you to release the Impure World Reincarnation on me."

Orochimaru's pupils shrank, and he almost suspected that he had heard it wrong, but the madman in front of him still had a terrible smile on his face, as if he was going on a thrilling adventure.
