Compared to the past, Xiaonan's abilities have improved.

The base of the Akatsuki organization is still filled with Konan's origami. When Jiraiya used the Toad Hiding Technique to sneak in, he still did not notice that the frog he was hiding in was squatting on a piece of origami.

"Jiraiya-sensei."

Payne's eyes fell on the frog, and his expression became a little ugly: "You still haven't learned the lesson from ten years ago..."

"..."

Jiraiya was still hiding in the frog's belly, and the frog even jumped a few times, as if it was not being controlled by humans at all.

however……

Xiaonan saw everything the frog did after it sneaked in. No matter what, this frog could not be an ordinary small animal.

Even a common frog...

It has eavesdropped on too many secrets, so we have to get rid of him for safety's sake!

Pieces of origami gathered in Xiaonan's palm to form a paper spear. She raised her hand and threw the paper spear directly at the frog!

"!!!"

The frog was so scared that it opened its mouth!

A large hand stretched out from the frog's mouth, and grabbed the paper spear thrown by Xiaonan. A sigh appeared in the base: "Xiaonan, you used to be the most loving person, but I didn't expect you to become so cruel now..."

While speaking, Jiraiya's figure slowly emerged from the frog. He fixed his eyes on Pain and Konan, intending to have a good chat with these two disciples. Due to their meeting ten years ago, Jiraiya already knew that Nagato was behind Pain.

"That guy Kagura..."

Jiraiya's brow furrowed as he recalled their encounter ten years ago.

At that time, I met two disciples and planned to have a good chat with them to find out their purpose with Akatsuki...

but……

It seemed like something went wrong at that time.

At that time, Jiraiya still didn't know what Akatsuki's purpose was, but he knew that his disciple Akihara Kagura was more extreme than Akatsuki. Coupled with the news that Orochimaru had defected from Akatsuki, Jiraiya had no mood to continue exploring the truth about Akatsuki...

after all……

No matter how extreme the purpose of Akatsuki is...

Could it be more extreme than what Akihara Kagura wants to do?

Over the years, Akihara Kagura has been corrected, or rather, he thought Akihara Kagura had been corrected, but he actually colluded with the Akatsuki organization in secret...

"Looks like we can't let Jiraiya-sensei leave today."

Pein's Rinnegan stared at Jiraiya and said calmly: "In order to prevent the secret that Kagura is a member of the Akatsuki organization from being leaked, we have to leave the teacher here..."

"when did it happen?"

Jiraiya wanted to be a sensible person.

Akihara Kagura holds an important position in Konoha and is extremely powerful. He holds many of Konoha's secrets and can even compete with the Fifth Hokage Tsunade.

The harm caused by the first Hokage who defected and assisted Danzo Shimura in betraying Konoha was far less than that caused by the second Hokage who assisted Kagura Akihara in betraying Konoha!

and……

Is there something wrong with the position of the root leader?

The first generation Root leader colluded with Orochimaru, and the second Root leader colluded with Akatsuki?

"Ten years ago... maybe even earlier..."

Pein simply stopped hiding the secret about his teacher. He had never been a good liar: "Uchiha Obito recommended him to join the Akatsuki organization. When we met in front of Yahiko's grave ten years ago, Kagura had already joined the Akatsuki organization..."

"Even when we had a conflict before, Kagura deliberately held back and let us go. All of this was done under the nose of Master Jiraiya..."

"Earlier than that time..."

Jiraiya's expression became even uglier.

If it were ten years ago, Jiraiya would have still had some expectations in his heart; however, if it was earlier, or even if he was colluding with Uchiha Obito, this matter would have been completely out of Jiraiya's control!

No wonder...

No wonder successive Hokage always failed when they went to hunt down Uchiha Obito!

According to the information provided by Tsunade, the successive Hokage never made any progress when they went to hunt down Uchiha Obito and the Akatsuki organization. Occasionally, there would be things in the village that needed to be handled by the five Hokage together, and they couldn't just hunt down the rebellious ninjas...

"Ten years ago, we made a promise together."

Payne looked at Jiraiya and continued softly: "Akatsuki supported Akihara Kagura to become Hokage, and Akihara Kagura supported Akatsuki to capture the tailed beasts in the ninja world..."

"and many more……"

Jiraiya quickly called Pein and frowned in surprise: "Why does this kind of thing feel familiar..."

"..."

Payne and Xiao Nan hesitated, as if they felt a little familiar.

This……

Why does this look a bit like a replica of Danzo Shimura and Hanzo Salamander?

There aren't many sunny days in the Rain Country in a year, so there's nothing new going on!

In order to seize the position of Hokage, Danzo Shimura colluded with Hanzo Salamander to subvert the Akatsuki organization; in order to seize the position of Hokage, Kagura Akihara colluded with the Akatsuki organization to subvert the ninja world?

The Root leaders are getting more outrageous with each generation...

Is each generation stronger than the previous one?

"but……"

"Sensei Jiraiya should thank Kagura back then."

Pein looked at Jiraiya and shook his head, and said softly: "We wanted to kill you, but Kagura stopped us because he needed Jiraiya's support to become Hokage..."

"Ha, do you still want to thank him?"

Jiraiya patted his head. He did not think this was a blessing. Instead, he was somewhat thankful for the arrangement made by the Third Hokage Sarutobi Hiruzen before his death. He sighed and said, "The old man did not let him become Hokage. It was really a wise move..."

fortunately.

Fortunately, I chose Tsunade.

Otherwise, I really don’t know what will happen!

"Forget it, let's not talk about him for now."

Jiraiya interrupted the topic of Akihara Kagura on his own, intending to return to Konoha to discuss Akihara Kagura with Tsunade: "Let's talk about the Akatsuki organization first. The Akatsuki organization has been collecting tailed beasts in the Ninja World. What is their purpose?"

"A terrible weapon of war."

Pain did not deny his plan and took the initiative to say: "As long as we collect all the tailed beasts in the ninja world, we can create a war weapon that can deter the ninja world. This weapon can kill everyone in a city with one blow and easily destroy a big country..."

"At that time, peace will come."

"Anyone who wants to start a war will feel the pain that war brings. Tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of people will be killed. Humanity will understand the horror of war and fear the cruelty that war brings. From then on, there will be a peace deterrent in the ninja world, and people will not dare to start a war because of the deterrence of war weapons."

"This idea is too extreme..."

Jiraiya frowned and wanted to reject this disciple's bizarre idea: "In order to avoid the pain of war, we should kill hundreds of millions of people first to threaten them not to start a war..."

"Our plans are already pretty modest."

Payne shook his head and gave a real-life example: "In comparison, what Kagura once proposed, killing everyone in the Ninja World and regularly clearing out the population, would make it easier for the Ninja World to be shrouded in despair, right?"

"..."

Jiraiya had no way to refute it.

Compared with the plans proposed by Akihara Kagura, Akatsuki's plan is much more gentle and even more humane than Akihara Kagura's plan.

"wrong!"

Jiraiya immediately kicked this idea out of his mind and said quickly: "Whether the damage level of your plan to the ninja world is 100 or 50, it is a huge harm to the ninja world. This so-called plan is not advisable..."

“This is not real peace.”

Jiraiya looked at Pein and continued in a deep voice: "Nagato, this is just a compromise based on intimidation. It is just a false peace based on the rule of power..."

"Human beings are weak and ignorant."

Pein shook his head again, as if he had no hope of correcting Jiraiya's thoughts: "God uses scars and pain to force them to grow and think. The so-called falsehood and compromise ultimately come from God's guidance..."

"Jiraiya-sensei."

"You are, after all, but a weak mortal. You cannot comprehend the mind of a god. Only beings as powerful as Kagura and I would know that this is the right thing to do."

"The weak ones all think our plan is too horrible."

Pein stared at Jiraiya, who was filled with anger, and continued to use the example of Akihara Kagura joining the Akatsuki organization to explain: "On the contrary, the truly strong ones would choose to agree to join..."

"..."

Jiraiya actually felt that he had no way to refute it.

The tall, white-haired man sighed, feeling somewhat sad. "I really don't know what my disciples are doing behind their teacher's back, but there is no doubt that you are all on the wrong path..."

Jiraiya looked at Pein and continued to persuade him seriously: "Just because you and Akihara Kagura all agree to do the same thing doesn't mean it's the right thing..."

"Well then, Jiraiya-sensei..."

Pein looked at Jiraiya, his expression gradually becoming colder: "How can you think you are right? How can you stop us? To me and to Kagura, everyone in this world is weak..."

"Have you forgotten?"

"Jiraiya-sensei..."

"I have inherited the immortal eyes bestowed by the heavens, and Kagura possesses an immortal body that is unique in this world..."

"The Sage's Body and the Sage's Eyes symbolize the Six Paths Sage who founded the Shinobi Clan in ancient times and brought peace to the Shinobi world. When the Sage's Eyes and the Sage's Body are combined together..."

Pein looked at Jiraiya as if he was looking at a weak ant: "Teacher Jiraiya, how can you resist the Sage of Six Paths?"

Chapter 267: Six Paths of Pain, Nagato’s trap!

"call……"

I almost forgot about my teacher Jiraiya.

Akihara Kagura possesses the body of a sage, and Nagato possesses the eyes of a sage. Both of them can call themselves the successors of the Six Paths Sage, but they unite together to subvert the ninja world.

There is no doubt that...

These two disciples now possess the strongest power in the ninja world.

"Nagato."

Jiraiya shook his head, disagreeing with Pain's statement: "You only possess the power of the Six Paths Sage, but you don't understand his spirit. The Ninja Clan he founded in ancient times was an era where everyone could understand each other..."

"The times of ninjas have long since changed."

Pein shook his head and continued in a cold voice: "Teacher Jiraiya, the ninjas of this era cannot understand each other. The only thing they can empathize with is pain. You cannot keep up with the tide of the new era. In the end, you will only be completely forgotten by the times here..."

"Are you going to kill me?"

Jiraiya narrowed his eyes.

"Jiraiya-sensei."

Payne seemed to have some regrets, and whispered: "After all, we are not on the same path. I will kill you here to prove that we are on the right path."

As Payne's words slowly fell...

Figures walked out from the depths of the Akatsuki base.

These people were all wearing black robes with auspicious clouds on them. They looked very different and had different hairstyles, but they all had the same hair color and the same pupils in their eyes.

Samsara Eye.

Without exception, all of these people possess the Rinnegan.

"Heavenly Dao!"

"Beastly way!"
