Chapter 177: I can not only do Akatsuki’s task, but also participate in the alliance meeting
Uehara doesn’t care about it that much. Under the guidance of Kabuto, he found a bunch of snake ninjutsu and threw them all into the exchange list.
In addition, Kabuto was not idle.
Kabuto asked Uehara to dispose of a batch of experimental equipment that Orochimaru did not often use, which he will use in the future when the Biological Science Research Laboratory opens in Amegakure.
Uehara didn’t care and even wanted to take it one step further, “We might as well take it all away! Anyway, this time, Orochimaru has attacked Konoha again. I estimated that Tsunade will send someone to encircle Otogakure soon!”
“…”
Kabuto glanced at Uehara speechlessly and pushed his glasses. He was a little suspicious that Uehara had been planning to hit this base long ago!
First, he forced Orochimaru to steal the Rashomon summoning contract scroll and attacked Konoha with him. Then, in the process, he let Orochimaru take the blame, and now he wanted to empty Orochimaru’s base under the name of Konoha encirclement.
After all, in the past few years, the main research of Orochimaru has all been concentrated in this base.
Some of the scientific experiment instruments here were Orochimaru’s hand-made, so no one can easily reproduce them.
“Okay, I will take it all away now.”
Uehara took a lot of seal scrolls to empty the experimental base, then waved goodbye to Kabuto.
Before leaving, Uehara summoned out Obito and asked him to release Orochimaru and his Impure World Reincarnation puppet.
“Bastard!”
When Orochimaru comes out, he gritted his teeth at Uehara and suddenly clenched his fist, “Uehara, I haven’t settled accounts with you yet!”
“Let’s do it together next time!”
Uehara squinted at Orochimaru, and after showing a friendly smile, he disappeared in front of Orochimaru.
“It’s that space-time ninjutsu again!”
Orochimaru’s expression was ugly, “No wonder this guy always appears suddenly!”
“Orochimaru-sama…”
Kabuto said with an awkward expression, “Naraku-sama has completely emptied this experimental base.”
Orochimaru only now noticed that his secret base was empty, and a burst of anger surged up, almost unable to suppress his rage!
It’s a pity that he can’t get angry at Kabuto.
After all, Kabuto did not have the strength to stop Uehara.
“I… forget it.”
Orochimaru’s clenched fist gradually loosened, and he said in a deep voice, “When I went to Konoha that time, I already exposed my whereabouts. It is estimated that Tsunade will send people to encircle the Otogakure soon, so this base cannot be kept anyway. Let’s go to the northern base!”
Orochimaru has foreseen the crisis coming.
In order to mobilize enough manpower to encircle Orochimaru, Konoha has decided to end the confrontation with Iwa in the Country of Grass at any cost.
To avoid the outbreak of the Ninja War, Tsunade began to use political and diplomatic means to solve it and decided to initiate an alliance meeting.
In addition to the Country of Wind and Country of Water, the two small countries near the Country of Earth, the Country of Rain and Country of Waterfall, also received Tsunade’s invitation.
The methods of this Fifth Hokage were stronger than her teacher Hiruzen, and all the methods of coercion and temptation were used.
The leader of Konohagakure, the most powerful ninja village in the Ninja World, was so shameless, and there was no place to reason about this kind of thing.
Amegakure.
The rain here was still pouring.
When Uehara returned to the village. Konan was looking at the invitation letter sent by the Konoha messenger in her hand. Her face was a little complicated and hesitant.
When Konan heard some movement, she raised her head, and the hesitation on her face stopped. Her eyebrows couldn’t help but bend, and she chuckled, “Naraku, you finally came back.”
“Sensei?”
Uehara’s expression was slightly puzzled, and he was a little uncomfortable. This was the first time Konan was not angry when he returned to the village.
Wasn’t this time to strike while the iron was hot?
Uehara drew out the Book of Seal neatly. He squinted his eyes and handed it to Konan with a smile, “Sensei, this time I brought you a gift!”
The smile on Konan’s face gradually faded, leaving only a trace of doubt and confusion, “Is this… whose corpse was this?”
“No!”
Uehara slapped the Book of Seal and explained softly, “This is Konoha Book of Seal. Didn’t Orochimaru attack Konoha a few days ago? That guy should have snatched this Book of Seal at that time, and it happened that I sneaked into his base and found this.”
“Huh? Did you secretly track Orochimaru again?”
Konan’s brows suddenly frowned, and when she was about to educate Uehara, she closed her mouth subconsciously.
After a while, the expression on Konan’s face eased slightly. She sighed softly and said, “Since Orochimaru mastered Impure World Reincarnation, he attacked Konoha twice unharmed. His strength now was different than in the past, so don’t easily put yourself in danger.”
“Okay.”
Uehara nodded obediently.
Konan slowly stood up and stretched out her palm to help Uehara tidy his hair. She continued softly, “Didn’t you say you want to become an official member of Akatsuki? Nagato and I have agreed. But you must wear a hood when you go out to perform a mission to hide your identity, and also, there was a task that required a lot of manpower.”
“Good. What task?”
“Assault Konoha Anbu in the Country of Grass.”
Konan put down the scroll in her hand and took out another one. She whispered softly, “The Third Tsuchikage Onoki asked Akatsuki at a high price to help them attack Konoha’s Anbu and destroy the alliance meeting the Fifth Hokage initiated.”
This was the biggest task that Akatsuki has received so far.
However, this task requires a lot of manpower. After all, a full-scale attack on Konoha’s Anbu would be launched in all parts of the Country of Grass, and Konoha’s Anbu must be driven out within one day. A small team cannot easily complete this.
What’s more, the follow-up operation was to destroy the alliance meeting consisting of the initiator, the Fifth Hokage Tsunade, the actual power holder in Kirigakure Terumi Mei, the elder consultant in Sunagakure Chiyo, and the leader of Takigakure Shibuki.
In the simplest way, Akatsuki’s members needed to be scattered to various places to attack Tsunade, Terumi Mei, and Chiyo’s teams, killing or repelling them.
The danger was also much greater than in past missions of Akatsuki.
“Alliance Meeting?”
After Uehara was finally happy that he could become Akatsuki’s member, he became a little curious. He really hadn’t received any news recently.
“The Fifth Hokage Tsunade initiated this.”
Konan picked up the scroll that had been on the table and handed it to Uehara, “The location is in the Daimyo Mansion of the Country of Grass two weeks later. Konoha also invited Amegakure. They want you or Hanzo to participate, but you have to perform Akatsuki’s mission….”
Konan slowly raised her head to look at Uehara and said softly, “To be honest, I am more willing to let you participate in this meeting, just to make the other ninja village recognize that you are the future leader of Amegakure, but Nagato said that I should let you decide….”
“…”
Uehara held the scroll subconsciously.
After a while, Uehara suddenly raised his head and chuckled, “I’m going to participate in this alliance meeting and also participate in the mission!”
“Oh?”
“If you just look at the map, whether it is Iwa or Konoha who get all the land in the Country of Grass will be very dangerous for us who are close to it. Almost half of our country will be the border of the winning country when they link up.”
Uehara touched his chin and thought for a while. He slowly raised his head and said, “The members of Akatsuki organization will attack Konoha’s Anbu first and drive them all out of the Country of Grass. Konoha will not easily give up, so the alliance meeting between the other village will surely continue.”
Uehara squeezed his finger and chuckled lightly, “Then I will go to the alliance meeting to see if I can reach some terms with Konoha, such as getting a part of the land.”
This was equivalent to eating at both ends.
On one hand, Konoha will be at a disadvantage in the battle for the Country of Grass by using the task entrustment to the Akatsuki organization from Iwa; using the identity of an Ame ninja, he will help Konoha to seize the land of the Country of Grass and counterattack Iwa along the way.
Uehara knew it well.
The area of the Country of Grass was not less than that of the Country of Rain. It would already be good that Amegakure could get apart from it, and after all, it was impossible to get too much.
“…”
After Konan was silent for a while, she suddenly raised her palm and stroked her cheek. The corners of her lips curved. She smiled and said, “Nagato was right. Naraku really wants to do something big!”
“Uh, okay!”
The rain outside the window was getting heavier.
A girl with a bun on her head suddenly said loudly outside the window, “Lady Angel, we just patrolled and found someone invaded here…”
“Huh? Ajisai?”
Konan retracted her palm subconsciously and turned her head slowly to look at the girl who spoke. She explained softly, “No one invaded, and it was Naraku who came back.”
“Has Naraku-senpai come back?”
Ajisai stopped outside the window for a while. After squeezing her small fist, she bowed at Konan and walked away.
“Well, do they need to patrol in such heavy rain?”
Uehara looked at Ajisai with some curiosity and stepped into the rain, “Isn’t Ukojizai no Jutsu (Rain Tiger at Will Technique) is always used for perception and defense?”
Konan shook her head and whispered, “We want it to become a habit of ninjas in the village. Sooner or later, Amegakure will depend on you young people.”
“How could it be?”
Uehara raised his eyebrows. He chuckled and shook his head. He then said, “Konan-sensei is just thirty-two years old this year! You are still young!”
This was the truth.
Around thirty years old was the most mature time for women.
Konan’s face instantly turned cold, and she whispered, “Well, since you are back, go and see Nagato. He must miss you very much.”
“Okay.”
Uehara nodded and said softly, “I also brought him a gift. It just so happened that It should be able to help him.”
“Wait…”
Seeing Uehara pushing the door to leave, Konan’s palm suddenly moved, and the sheets of origami paper turned into a paper umbrella. She handed it to Uehara and said, “The rain outside is so heavy, don’t let your clothes get wet anymore. “
“…”
Uehara glanced at the paper umbrella with some inexplicable words. Would this really be useful for such heavy rain outside?
Moreover, with his physique, how could he be afraid of rain!
After leaving Konan’s office, Uehara looked around and glanced at a group of Ame ninja team patrolling in the rain.
Three people were using two umbrellas.
Among them, Ajisai walks in the middle looking a little pitiful.
Well, since he left, has Amegakure funding become so tight?
“Here, take it!”
Uehara handed his paper umbrella to Ajisai in the middle and whispered softly, “You guys can continue to patrol. I will go to the central tower to see Pain-sama, and I don’t really need an umbrella.”
“Yes.”
Ajisai stretched out her palm and said, “I don’t want your things, but I know this umbrella was made by Lady Angel, so I will take it.”
Uehara, “…”
So you like Konan but don’t like me?
What’s wrong with the little girls in Ninja World!
Only when Ajisai stretched out her hand to take the paper umbrella in Uehara’s hand. She saw the chakra on the simple paper umbrella suddenly disappear, and the whole paper umbrella fell apart and turned into sheets of paper.
Ajisai slowly raised her head, her eyes gradually showing a trace of grief and anger: “Naraku-senpai, did you do it on purpose?”
In the entire Amegakure, everyone knows Ajisai worship Konan!
But Uehara destroyed the paper umbrella Konan made!
Uehara slowly turned his head and looked at the window of Konan’s office. A tall figure stood there watching here.
Uehara looked at the grieving little girl. He shook his head and sighed, “I also want to ask my Sensei about that.”
