"No, but I can take you to see Master Hanzo. As you know, Master Hanzo doesn't see outsiders easily, so we have to help Master Hanzo determine the importance of the information and the condition of the visitor first."

Konan explained.

Qianye did not doubt him and handed over the scroll.

Xiaonan took it, glanced at it briefly, and then his eyes fixed.

This……

She put away the scroll, her face serious: "Is your village's information true?"

"I'm not sure, that's why we need to check with Hanzo-senpai from your village. After all, Hanzo-senpai was also a participant in this operation. The two can verify each other and perhaps better reflect whether the information is true or false."

"Okay, I'll take you to see Master Hanzo."

She nodded slightly.

Of course, there is no Hanzo now. The leader of the village is Pain, but on the surface, the communication with Konoha still has to be conducted in the name of Hanzo.

Xiaonan took Chiba to the attic.

"Master Hanzo rarely leaves the attic, so you can talk through the screen."

"it is good."

Chiba did not expose him, but continued speaking.

Xiaonan nodded slightly and left the room.

After a while, a majestic voice came from inside the room: "Are you Danzo's successor?"

"It's not accurate to say that I'm your successor. The current Root Team has been disbanded. We no longer do the things that Danzo did before."

"..."

Nagato was silent for a few seconds, "You found it at the root?"

"Yes, of course. What we found was a diary of Danzo. He wrote some questions on it. One of them was that the person who reported the intelligence to the organization did not have a deep memory afterwards, and soon died in a mission."

Chiba said.

Nagato was silent.

After a while, he said, "So he thinks there's a conspiracy?"

"That's not the case. I just find it strange. But this person is dead, so there is no way to verify the follow-up. The failure of that organization is also a good thing for Konoha. He has no reason to find out clearly."

"now what?"

"The situation is different now. The Akatsuki organization has been developing in secret and is becoming more and more active in the ninja world. On the one hand, we are worried about your safety and hope to reach a cooperation. On the other hand..."

Qianye raised his head. "Do you remember the details of that year, such as whether any of your subordinates specifically reported this incident and exaggerated their abilities?"

"..."

Nagato recalls carefully——

The memories of Hanzo were already rather vague in his mind, but when he thought about it carefully, he felt as if there was such a person.

Chapter 353: Nagato, you are so tough!

2023-05-15

"What did he ask?"

"Some very strange questions."

Nagato was still pondering.

Was there anyone who bewitched Hanzo back then...

This memory was a little fuzzy, and he vaguely remembered that there seemed to be some people in Hanzo's memory.

"what is the problem?"

"He asked me..."

Nagato said it all over again.

Xiaonan was confused for a moment, and then gradually figured it out.

"He wants to guide you to think in the direction of doubting Madara."

"Ah."

Of course he understood this, and even knew that Qianye's actions might be to delay time or consume their energy, but -

He hesitated for a moment.

Although Chiba's words were full of traps, they still made him curious.

There was no hesitation for long.

A ninja shows up and says Hanzo has finished sorting out the information today and he can be seen now.

Nagato still wanted to know what Chiba wanted to say next.

Konan said seriously, "Nagato, no matter what you choose, I will support you."

Ideal or revenge?

Nagato uttered a sentence slowly.

Xiaonan knew that he had made a decision.

The so-called Akatsuki has always been Yahiko's creation, and Madara's thinking only played a trivial role in it, but Madara's strength is a good help to the current Akatsuki organization.

She looked at Nagato silently, waiting for his decision.

"They still have some follow-up matters, and I want to hear what he wants to say first."

She chose silence.

of course.

"Bara over there?"

The other party succeeded.

Nagato was silent for a long time, then controlled Pain to stand up.

Inside the building of the Hidden Rain Village.

"Then you have to be prepared for both situations. Madara will definitely not allow us to delay like this."

but.

"If Hui Jue comes, I will answer like this, but we also need to be prepared recently. In addition..."

Nagato nodded.

……

"Well, let's wait and see. You should also take the initiative to contact them. Don't let them think we are stalling. We should prepare for both situations."

Xiaonan obviously thought of this as well.

"Just say that someone from Konoha is coming and I need to deal with them for the time being. I can't take action immediately. Let him wait for a few days, and we can seal the tailed beast together."

After many twists and turns, Chiba met the pirated Hanzo again.

Chiba stayed in the Hidden Rain Village for a day.

She opened her mouth, not knowing how to persuade, and even less knowing what to choose.

"He succeeded."

She used ninjutsu to confirm that there were no Zetsu or White Zetsu spying around, and then she said, "What if they really did something back then, what are you going to do?"

Nagato stood up, "If there really is a discrepancy."

the next day.

Nagato said, "The Four-Tails we caught last time hasn't been sealed yet, right?"

Xiaonan lowered his voice.

Nagato was indeed thinking, was Yahiko's death really a conspiracy between Danzo and Hanzo?

Isn't there another hand pushing behind the scenes?

have to say.

As a strong person, Konan doesn't have many ideas of her own. Her ideas come from Nagato and Yahiko. It was like this before and it is like this now.

If he fell out with Madara, Yahiko's wish would never come true.

Just like before, there is still a screen between us.

Nagato, disguised as Hanzo, said inside: "Chiba Jonin, I went back and checked. There were indeed some people who said that the organization was dangerous and needed to be eliminated, but it was exaggerated and did not exist. Besides, even if it was exaggerated, it should not be a big deal to destroy them."

"No, one of them is a ninja who possesses the Eye of the Immortal. I think you must have suffered a lot after you took action, right?"

Qianye finished speaking and leaned back. "According to the intelligence, that battle was very tragic. May I ask if that person died?"

"Of course I killed him."

"Not necessarily. The other party is the master of the Samsara Eye, and I have a very important piece of information. The previous master of the Samsara Eye, the Sage of Six Paths, is the ancestor of the Uchiha and Senju."

"Oh?"

Nagato was shocked in his heart, but he remained calm on the surface, not showing any intense emotions. "So what? What does it have to do with what you said about 'impossible'?"

"Of course there is a connection. The ninja named Nagato has red hair and is from the Uzumaki clan. Although he is also a descendant of the Sage of Six Paths, he does not possess qualities such as the Rinnegan or the Sage Body."

Qianye said calmly, "It's impossible for him to awaken the Samsara Eye!"

"You are too absolute. According to you, how can we awaken the Samsara Eye?"

"The strongest Sharingan, plus the power of the Sage Body! If I'm not mistaken, Nagato's body is probably too weak now. Even the Uzumaki clan would not be able to bear a pair of eyes that don't belong to him."

Chiba said.

Nagato chuckled, "Unfortunately, I have already killed him, so there is no way to know if this is the case."

You are so stubborn!

Chiba complained in his heart.

Nagato's mind was stronger than he thought.

Or is it that my own persuasion is just too bad?

He took a small breath.

Subsequently.

"Then I'll just put it simply. According to my guess, these eyes may come from the legendary Uchiha Madara. He would never allow the carrier of his eyes to die."

Qianye said calmly, "All of this is controlled by Madara. If we want to defeat Madara, we must unite."

"..."

Nagato narrowed his eyes.

This guy must know his identity. Everything he says seems to be talking to Hanzo, but in fact he is talking to himself.

My eyes are spotted.

and so.

Madara will never let himself die?

There is nothing wrong with the logic.

Yahiko's death would be very simple if we infer this way.

Because Yahiko was influencing him, he could no longer be controlled by Madara, but——

Nagato smiled.

"Chiba Jonin, the Hidden Rain Village and Konoha have always been allies, so whatever you want to do, we in the Hidden Rain Village will definitely support you. But I'm still very grateful that you came to tell me this and solved some of my doubts."

"I'm glad I helped you, then..."

"Please stay. Even though it's just a shadow clone, it can still be of some help to us."
