Chapter 97: Akatsuki's Interest
Danzo's men didn't kill anyone, but instead committed suicide?
Moreover, if all this was really Danzo's doing, then those so-called Kumo ninjas were most likely root ninjas.
What was he planning?
"But what exactly caused the explosion?"
"Ninjutsu?"
"But what kind of ninjutsu can cause that kind of damage?"
The more Sarutobi Hiruzen thought about it, the more he couldn't figure it out.
But one thing was certain.
That is, Ryosuke and Yugao really didn't know anything.
After all, it had just been confirmed by Yamanaka Inoiichi himself by using genjutsu.
Neither of them lied!
"It's troublesome, the mysterious ninja outside the village has still not been found, and now this incident has happened."
Haaa!
Sarutobi Hiruzen let out a long sigh.
If things continue like this, he may not be able to last even ten years.
Land of Rain
Amegakure
It rains here all year round, and every household always brings an umbrella when going out.
At this time
In the deepest part of Amegakure.
Inside the headquarters base of the Akatsuki organization.
Pain, the leader of Akatsuki heard about the situation of the undead duo.
"Yagami Ryosuke? Konoha Genin?"
When Pain heard that Kakuzu and Hidan almost died in the hands of a Konoha Genin, even though his body was just one of the Six Paths puppets, he couldn't help showing a look of surprise.
"This kid is not simple, he is very strong in Taijutsu and Ninjutsu, but he doesn't seem to have much combat experience. He just uses force to overwhelm people." Zetsu said.
Even with little combat experience, he almost killed Kakuzu and Hidan?
That's even more incredible, isn't it?
Pain frowned, and a pair of purple round eyes flashed with thought.
After a while
"Why did the other party have a conflict with Kakuzu and the others?" Pain asked.
This was very important. If the other party was deliberately targeting their Akatsuki organization, Pain felt obligated to solve this problem as soon as possible.
After all, Zetsu said that the other party was just a 12-year-old kid.
He already possesses such terrifying strength now, who knows how strong he will be after a few more years when he becomes an adult?
Pain has always claimed to be a god and he is quite confident in his own strength.
But he is confident, not conceited.
Enemies like this are better nipped in the bud.
Only a fool would wait for the opponent to grow to the peak before making a move.
"The cause of the incident seems to be that Kakuzu wanted to take the head of one of his companions in exchange for a bounty, so the two sides clashed." Zetsu said.
Pain: "..."
Kakuzu is good at everything.
His ability to make money is also very strong, and he has made a lot of money for the Akatsuki Organization.
But there is one thing about him that is not so good.
He has too much desire for money!
Sometimes Pain even wondered that if someone offered two billion for his head, would Kakuzu fight even when he knew he couldn't win?
That's not to say Kakuzu is an idiot.
It's that money has already become an obsession in his heart.
It's the same as Pain wants to make the five great ninja villages feel pain so that peace can be achieved.
This is their obsession!
Does Pain not know the risks of doing this?
He knows but he doesn't care!
Even if he has to sacrifice hus own life, as long as he can get the result he wants, he is very willing.
So, Pain could understand Kakuzu's obsession with money before.
But today, when he heard that Kakuzu provoked such a powerful enemy for the Akatsuki just for a bounty, Pain felt deeply distressed from the bottom of his heart.
"Pain, what are you going to do?"
Zetsu looked at Pain in front of him and asked him.
Pain thought for a moment and said, "Leave him alone for the time being. Tell Kakuzu and Hidan to pay attention in the future."
"Tell them to not make such unnecessary enemies for the Akatsuki. We are mainly in the development stage now, and it is not appropriate to confront anyone strong."
"Is that what you think?" Zetsu nodded and understood.
"That's fine, I'll go down first."
Pain didn't speak, watching Zetsu's figure disappear before his eyes.
"Pain, are we really going to ignore this Yagami Ryosuke?"
Konan on the side couldn't help asking.
Just now she had been listening by the side, and even she thought that this Yagami Ryosuke might become a hindrance to their plan in the future.
She didn't believe Pain would miss that.
"No, this Yagami Ryosuke will not be our enemy."
Unexpectedly, Pain shook his head, saying that Yagami Ryosuke would not be the enemy of their Akatsuki organization.
This made Konan a little confused.
"Why do you think a ninja who can easily defeat Kakuzu and Hidan deliberately hides his strength and acts as a Genin?" Pain asked Konan back.
"Is this... is it because of some scruples?"
Konan thought for a while and guessed.
"That's right, the village of Konoha is even darker than we imagined. Their high-level officials can't even trust the ninjas of their own village."
"You have also read the information about Konoha. You should know what will happen to a person that is born in Konoha if they have terrifying talent and strength?"
Hearing this, Konan recalled the information about Konoha that she had seen before.
The Uchiha clan was exterminated, the genius ninja Uchiha Shisui died accidentally, and Uchiha Itachi killed his whole clan and became a rebel.
The Nine Tails attacked the village, the Fourth Hokage and his wife died, and the Third Hokage came back to preside over the overall situation.
Hatake Sakumo's Suicide Case, and the Sannin going away from Konoha.
One after another, everything showed that being born in Konoha, and being too talented was not only not a good thing, but also a bad thing!
If one is not careful, it will bring about a disaster of death for yourself!
"So, can we win over this Yagami Ryosuke?"
