"Don't worry about me, Nagato. You and Konan must survive, and the future of the Akatsuki... is in your hands."

Yahiko smiled and said.

As soon as he finished speaking, he slammed fiercely, ramming into the kunai that was pressed against his neck.

With a puff, blood splattered everywhere.

Yahiko's neck was dyed red with blood, and he fell to the ground with a thud.

He chose to use his own death to free his companions.

"Noo!"

Seeing this, Nagato's eyes were suddenly widened, and he attacked again.

Even if he was exhausted, he summoned the Gedo Statue again, and jumped on its shoulder with Konan.

"Roar!"

The Gedo Statue let out a roar, setting off a strong wind that enveloped everyone present.

Orochimaru's complexion changed, as he was directly responsible for Yahiko's death, he is the first target of Nagato's revenge.

So he immediately bit his finger and used his blood to escape with reverse summoning jutsu. With a bang, he disappeared and fled to Ryuchi cave.

Seeing Orochimaru escaping under his nose, Nagato couldn't help but get even more furious. He manipulated the Gedo Statue to raise its huge fist and smashed it towards Obito.

Obito was feeling uncomfortable right now.

He originally prepared a large set of plans, and wanted to use Madara Uchiha's identity to confuse Nagato to serve him. As a result, before he had time to say a word, he was confused by Kisame.

He stood still and used his Kamui to avoid the Gedo Statue's attack.

At this moment, Obito looked at Nagato's eyes, and the invisible coercion released by the Rennigan made his heart race.

'The Rennigan, is indeed ultimate evolution of the Mangekyo Sharingan.'

Obito understood very well that no matter how powerful his Mangekyo Sharingan was, it was still inferior to the Rennigan, not to mention that he only had one eye.

In addition, Kisame is staring at him, and it is possible that he may attack him at any time.

Thinking of this, Obito retreated using Kamui

As Obito escaped, the only outsider here was Kisame.

Nagato stood on the Gedo Statue's shoulder and glanced at Kisame indifferently, considering that the latter had saved them before, he didn't take action against it.

"Listen, whether you're the so-called Madara Uchiha or Hoshigaki Kisame, stay away from us. Otherwise, I'll definitely kill you."

After saying this, he manipulated the Gedo Statue to grab Yahiko's corpse on the ground, and then made a seal. With a bang, he disappeared with the Gedo Statue.

In a blink of an eye, only Kisame was left standing alone in the rain. Other than him, there are corpses everywhere.

Kisame did not expect that things would turn out like this.

Although his plan to approach Nagato failed, he did not come here in vain, he obtained the Kusanagi sword and Yamato.

It is also a good harvest.

After running away, Nagato would definitely use the Rennigan to hide completely. During this period, no one can find him and Konan.

Kisame realized that there was no need for him to stay in the Land of Rain.

So, he put away the Gunbai, and slowly stretched out a pair of black wings from his back. As he became more and more proficient in his abilities, he was able to partially become Satori.

'Swish.'

Kisame rose into the sky, and soon disappeared into the vast curtain of rain in the sky.

.....

Deep in the mountains of the Land of Rain, the rain continued.

Danzo fled all the way here and hid in a cave with a look of shock on his face.

Not long ago, he was the great elder of Konohagakure, and he was an existence under one person and more than ten thousand people. But now, not only has he become a traitor, but his subordinates have all died, and the Root that he has worked so hard to accumulate over the years has been emptied.

Danzo now deeply understands what a dead end is.

'Why, why is this happening?'

Thinking of this, he raised his cane and slammed the ground hard, clenching his fists, as the veins on the back of his hands burst out.

Right at this moment.

'Sizzle.'

A white snake slipped in from outside the cave, and finally changed into Orochimaru with a "Bang".

"Haahaa..." Orochimaru panted while leaning against the wall, his face paler than usual, and he looked very weak.

Although he is the head of the Sannin, he is not strong enough in the face of enemies such as Rennigan Nagato, Hoshigaki Kisame and Obito Uchiha.

He is lucky to survive that encounter.

However, before Orochimaru could take a good breath, Danzo looked angry and asked gloomily:

"Orochimaru, didn't you say that Jiraiya's disciples are of average strength? What happened to that red-haired boy, how much did you hide from me about his eyes?"

Danzo believed that Orochimaru gave him the wrong information, which led to the lack of preparation on his own side, and was tragically destroyed by the enemy.

"Don't forget, it was you who proposed to come to the Land of Rain, and it was also your idea to attack the Akatsuki."

Orochimaru said coldly, facing Danzo, his former boss, he was not polite at all.

At this moment, both of them narrowed their eyes and looked at each other, and the atmosphere in the cave was extremely cold.

Danzo and Orochimaru, this pair of embarrassed fellows, are now exhausted and throwing blame at each other, and it seems that they are not far from breaking up.

At this moment.

"Hey, do you need help?"

A voice suddenly sounded in the cave.

"Who's there?!" Danzo and Orochimaru tightened their bodies at the same time and glanced around.

Under their astonished gazes, Zetsu, with a pitcher plant on his head, burrowed out from the ground.

'Was I followed?'

After seeing Zetsu, Danzo did not attack immediately, but asked in a deep voice, "Who are you and what do you want to do?"

"We are all Avengers, just like you."

Another voice came from outside the cave, Orochimaru and Danzo looked at the entrance of the cave, and suddenly saw Obito's figure appearing at the entrance of the cave.

Obito spread his hands, walked infront of Orochimaru, and took off his mask to greeted the latter with a smile:

"Hello, Orochimaru."

"Sure enough, it's you, Uchiha Obito. You're not dead."

After Orochimaru saw his face, his pupils shrank and was surprised.

'Uchiha Obito?'

When Danzo heard this name, he took a second look, and also showed a surprised face.

When he was in charge of the Root, he often poached people from various clans in Konoha, and he still had an impression of Obito, the second place in the Chunin exam.

It's just that Obito's character is sunny and lively, and Danzo thinks that he has no "dark aptitude" and is not suitable for the Root, so he did not contact him.

Now it seems that his judgment is wrong...

From Orochimaru, Danzo learned that Obito was already dead, but he appeared here alive. What happened?

"Don't worry, you two, please listen to me."

Obito saw the doubts in their eyes, so he walked to a stone next to him and sat down with his legs crossed and told his story slowly.

Of course, it is an adapted story, half true and half false.

Obito concealed Madara Uchiha's existence, only said that he survived the disaster by awakening his Mangekyo Sharingan. And the grudge between him and Kisame.

"Because of Hoshigaki Kisame, I lost the woman I love and my eye was taken away. It is also because of Hoshigaki Kisame that the two of you have been reduced to where you are now. Since the three of us have a common enemy, shouldn't we? Unite and take revenge on Kisame?"

After Obito finished his story, he finally revealed his purpose for meeting them.

"Revenge on Kisame?"

After Orochimaru asked, he shook his head and said suspiciously, "Obito, you should also know that even if the three of us join forces, I'm afraid we are not his opponent, right?"

"That's why I came to the Land of Rain to find the legendary owner of the Rennigan, the red-haired boy named Nagato. Unfortunately, I was disturbed by Kisame again."

Obito sighed and said the purpose of his previous trip.

After listening to Obito's words, Danzo realized at this moment that those eyes were called the Rennigan. And the man who claimed to be Madara Uchiha turned out to be Hoshigaki Kisame.

Looking at Orochimaru's calm face again, he realised that he already knew this information.

When he realized that he was the only one who was kept in the dark and didn't know anything, he couldn't help but get even more angry and his face became more gloomy.

"But the good news is that Kisame too failed to control Nagato and steal the Rennigan, which means we still have a chance."

Obito stood up, opened his arms, and extended an invitation to the two again, "So, I hope the two of you can cooperate with me, as long as we find Nagato, convince him to join us, and everyone can develop Akatsuki together. Take revenge on Kisame, even destroy Konoha and Kirigakure, and then unifying the ninja world is not a dream!"

This passionate speech did not impress Orochimaru and Danzo. They are all old foxes, how could they be instigated by some empty talk.

Obito also recognised this. Fortunately, he was prepared and took out two test tubes from his sleeves, which contained emerald green Hashirama cells.

"I know that the two of you have been working on Hashirama cells, but I have better results here that I can share with you for free."

As he said this, he threw the two test tubes to Orochimaru and Danzo respectively.

At the beginning, Madara Uchiha bit a piece of flesh from Senju Hashirama, and after opening the Rennigan, he has been using the power of the Rennigan to cultivate Hashirama cells.

Naturally his research on Hashirama cells is greater than Orochimaru's.

Sure enough, after receiving the gift, Orochimaru was immediately attracted. He stared intently at the Hashirama cells in the test tube, and muttered:

"Perfect, so perfect..."

Obito was very satisfied with his reaction. He smiled again, and said:

"Orochimaru, as long as you cooperate with me, I can give you the research data on Hashirama cells and Mokuton. Danzo, I can help you enter Konohagakure and make you a Hokage one day. As for what I want , there is only one thing I want - that is Hoshigaki Kisame's corpse.

After hearing him, the two looked at each other, and in the end they couldn't resist the temptation and agreed to Obito's conditions.

The three of them set foot on the same boat.

But soon, in response to the current situation, Orochimaru raised a question:

"Where do we go to find Nagato? Although the area of ​​the Land of Rain is far less than that of the five major countries, it is not a small place. If the owner of the Rennigan wants to hide, we may never find him."

"We need more people."

Danzo also expressed his opinion. He has been pampered for a long time, and he is used to being served in everything. It is impossible for him to run errands to find someone.

"My plan is... to unify the Land of Rain first, and then mobilize all the power of this country to start a carpet search."

Obito is amazing.

"How do we unify it with just a few of us?"

Orochimaru shook his head, denied Obito's idea on the spot, and reminded, "Even if we can do it, in the process, it will inevitably attract the attention of Konoha and Hoshigaki Kisame, and we will be finished by then."

Both he and Danzo agreed that Obito's plan was risky and childish.

"No, no, we don't need to do it. It's Sunagakure who unifies it."

Obito shook his finger, and spoke again, "Rasa, the fourth Kazekage of Sunagakure, will soon launch a war against Amegakure and will annex the entire Land of Rain. Please come with me."

After saying these words with a mysterious look on his face, he turned and walked out of the cave.

Danzo and Orochimaru looked at each other again, and both saw the doubt on each other's faces. When they came back to their senses, they hurriedly followed Obito.
