In Konoha, they wiped out the Sarutobi clan at the start.

Chapter 58 Sarutobi Mirai is about to be born

"It seems this guy is quite wary of Chiya." Konan walked to Payne's side.

"To be able to wipe out the Sarutobi clan, which numbered in the thousands, in such a short time, one must naturally possess a rather impressive skill level," Pain said calmly.

"So what should we do next? Should we continue to follow his orders and have Jue and Qianye be in the same group?" Xiao Nan asked.

"There's no better option right now." Payne turned to Konan. "Any leads on the woman Chiya entrusted to our protection?"

"Mm." Xiao Nan nodded.

"So fast?" Payne was somewhat surprised.

It's important to know that the vast majority of Akatsuki's intelligence comes from Zetsu, who is in league with the masked man.

Without relying on Zetsu, and with Konoha strictly blocking information about the Uchiha clan, investigating Mikoto's identity won't be easy.

"No, it didn't take me much effort. I found out her name directly, and then did a quick investigation. Her name is Uchiha Mikoto. Interestingly, she seems to be Uchiha Itachi's mother," Konan said.

"That's quite interesting. Rumors were that apart from Itachi's brother, there were no other survivors in the Uchiha clan. I didn't expect there to be another one besides Izumi Uchiha. It seems that the Uchiha clan massacre was not as simple as it seemed."

Payne muttered to himself, "Well, this doesn't really concern us. All we need to do now is ensure the plan goes smoothly."

As he spoke, his body floated into the air and drifted towards Amegakure.

Xiao Nan performs a paper dance, her body transforming into countless pieces of paper that follow closely behind.

at the foot of the mountain.

Qianye said listlessly to Jue, "You two are so slow."

"You're too fast," White Zetsu remarked, handing over several scrolls. "These are your next tasks."

Qianye flipped through it and couldn't help but roll his eyes. "Assassination, bridge blowing, bandit extermination. You guys really take on any kind of mission."

"There's nothing we can do about it. The organization is just starting out and needs a lot of funding," Black Zetsu replied.

"Since you're short of money, why don't you just do what I did and rob a rich man? Anyway, this world is short of everything, except for unscrupulous merchants and wealthy landlords. At worst, you can kill them to cover it up afterwards. Why take on these pointless missions?" Qianye said while browsing the scroll.

"There are no secrets in this world. The ironclad rule of the ninja world is to receive rewards by accepting missions. No one, including the Five Great Nations, can break this rule. The Akatsuki organization is no exception. If they violate this rule, they will attract attention and may be besieged by the Five Great Nations."

"The destruction of the Land of Whirlpools serves as a cautionary tale. Their system of integrating ninja villages with the nation was unacceptable to many countries and ultimately brought disaster upon them."

Black Zetsu patiently explained.

"That's truly disgusting. They possess immense power, yet they succumb to those weaklings who hold positions without doing any work. What a tragic world."

Qianye symbolically formed a hand seal with his right hand, and with a bang, the smoke dissipated, revealing several shadow clones that appeared out of thin air.

He distributed the mission scrolls to his shadow clones, then turned his back to Zetsu and said, "You lead the way. Leave the fighting to them. As long as we don't encounter any Kage or powerful Jinchuriki, there shouldn't be any major problems."

"Isn't this too lax? I can sense that each of your shadow clones possesses immense chakra, but shadow clones can't replenish their chakra. If the mission is delayed because of depleted chakra, the leader will be angry."

Black Zetsu didn't want Chiya to be away from his surveillance, so he used Pain as an excuse to bring up the matter.

"Don't worry about that. This isn't an ordinary shadow clone; it can regenerate its own chakra. If anything goes wrong and the leader blames me, I'll take full responsibility."

Alright, that's all for now. I'm going to start my cultivation.

"If Black Six has any new tasks, just give them to this shadow clone. If it encounters something beyond the clone's capabilities, he'll send a message to me."

Leaving behind these words, Qianye vanished from the sight of the Black and White Absolutes in a flash.

"What do we do?" Looking at the spot where Qianye had disappeared, Bai Jue asked in a voice that only he and Hei Jue could hear.

"What a troublesome fellow. Let's take his shadow clone to the mission location first, and then report to the leader and Tobi later," Black Zetsu replied. His figure slowly merged into the ground.

After Black Zetsu disappeared, Chiya stopped and turned his head to look in the direction of Konoha. He murmured to himself, "Judging by the time, Danzo and Sarutobi Asuma's child should be born by now."

at the same time.

The Land of Fire. Konoha Village.

A secret underground base.

The dim candlelight flickered gently as a breeze blew in.

"You're awake! How are you feeling? I've kept the news under wraps; no one will know your condition. You can rest and recover without worry."

Hiruzen Sarutobi sat by the bedside, looking at his son, who had always been rebellious in his eyes, lying on the hospital bed, looking like he had no will to live. He felt a sharp pain in his heart, let out a long sigh, and couldn't bring himself to say the last word, "fetus".

At this point, nearly seven days had passed since the massacre of Sarutobi, Shimura, and the Uchiha clan.

Konohamaru had already been discharged from the hospital and was picked up by Hiruzen Sarutobi and taken back to the Hokage Building, where he was placed in the care of Konoha's special Jonin, Ebisu.

To prevent Konohamaru's already fragile young mind, already weakened by the loss of his family, from suffering further torment.

Hiruzen Sarutobi immediately blocked the news of his and Asuma Sarutobi's castration.

Originally, it was based on Sarutobi Asuma's physique.

Although he broke a few ribs and lost his lower body.

However, given Konoha's medical facilities, he should be able to be discharged soon.

It's better to be safe than sorry.

During the medical ninja's examination of Sarutobi Asuma's body while treating his injuries, they discovered that he had an extra warm house inside his body that only females could possess.

And a household has already been established there.

The residents there were incredibly resilient, changing almost every day.

In just a few days, Asma's belly turned into a ball.

This startled the medical ninja who was treating him.

The hospital director was notified immediately.

The dean then reported on the third generation.

The third generation was also terrified, experiencing a mixture of joy and anger.

The good news is that the Sarutobi family will finally be spared from dying out.

To my surprise, the object of his attention was his son.

If this gets out, this grown man, the strongest Hokage of all time, will lose all face.

However, in order to save the only possible fertile offspring of the Sarutobi family, he ultimately decided to keep the child.

Therefore, he had no choice but to bring his son to this underground secret base, and even the medical ninjas who knew about Asuma's physical condition were brought over.
