Chapter 158: The task of destroying Kusagakure
Lakeshore.
Konan raised her head and looked at Uehara. This disciple of her was already taller than her, and she couldn’t help but remind again of Nagato’s persuasion and Jiraiya’s teaching.
The anger in Konan’s chest slowly subsided, and she reached out to help Uehara tidy up his clothes, “Naraku, tomorrow I will arrange for you to become the leader of Amegakure. You are a ninja in the Country of Rain, so slowly learn to shoulder the responsibility of a leader!”
Uehara’s face suddenly drooped. He shook his head weakly and said, “Konan-sensei, Pain is the most suitable leader of Amegakure.”
Uehara knew it for a long time.
Konan doesn’t want Uehara to mix with the current Akatsuki, and she wants him to become the leader of Amegakure according to the established route she set. This was also the difference between Uehara and Konan and also the difference between Nagato and Konan.
Perhaps it was because of too much suffering. Konan always wanted to arrange a bright and smooth journey for him, but what Uehara wanted was not this!
The future of being tied to a small ninja village every day and always under Konan and Nagato’s wings. Was this what he should do as a man behind the scenes?
Uehara grabbed Konan’s hand and said solemnly, “Sensei, I have been practicing in the village for four years, and I have researched a lot of ninjutsu. This time, I didn’t fall into a disadvantage even when I fought against Jiraiya.”
“I know, you have too much guts.”
Konan slowly raised her head to look at Uehara and said solemnly: “And you actually assassinated the Third Hokage in Konoha this time, in case something happens to you…”
“Nothing happens, right?…”
Uehara helplessly patted his forehead and said, “Anyway, I refuse to become the leader of Amegakure.”
Konan slowly stretched out her palm and stroked his cheek. Her hot breath fell on Uehara’s neck, her voice getting lower and lower, “Naraku, we want to give you the best. Why do you always refuse?”
“Maybe there is a generation gap in our concept?”
Uehara blinked and stared at Konan’s orange eye. He softly changed the subject, “That… Sensei, I brought you a gift, and you will love it.!”
“Okay?”
Konan’s eyes suddenly had some doubts.
Uehara quickly took out a scroll from his ninja bag and placed it in Konan’s hand. He chuckled and said, “Didn’t I tell you before? After the assassination of the Third Hokage, I got in touch with Danzo…”
Of course, this was a lie.
In fact, Danzo’s assassination was even further.
Except for Kabuto, no one else knows the truth.
Konan’s gaze suddenly hesitated. Her expression was a little hard to say while looking at the scroll in her hand, “So what inside is…”
Uehara nodded, and with a smug smile on his face, he said, “Yes, it’s the corpse of Shimura Danzo.”
Uehara shook his head and sighed. He continued to explain, “Shimura Danzo seems to have mastered a life-saving technique. He has transplanted a bunch of Sharingan, and every time he closes one of the Sharingan. He can be protected from any harm for some time. It took me a lot of effort…”
This was also to provide information.
In the future, when Konan or Nagato meet Obito, they must be clear that having Sharingan means a period of invincible time.
Uehara had some regrets on his face and said, “Because of this, I didn’t bring him back alive, only his corpse.”
“…”
Konan’s expression was a little dazed.
Her mood was incredibly complicated at this moment, and she didn’t know what to say.
Every time this disciple of her went out, he would bring her some weird gifts after coming back. Although these gifts were all in line with her, they always felt a little odd.
Yes, she does hate Danzo.𝑓𝒓e𝑒w𝑒𝒃𝑛𝒐𝘃ℯ𝙡. c𝚘m
But what was more important than Danzo was Uehara’s emotional intelligence.
Uehara brought a corpse over as a gift. Wasn’t his EQ a little bit lower? Was there a problem with her education?
“Okay, I’m going to treat Nagato-sama first.”
After Uehara waved his hand, he took this opportunity to interrupt the talk and turned to leave here.
Konan nodded hesitantly. Her eyes fell on the scroll in her hand again.
A trace of hatred flashed in Konan’s eyes, and there was an additional explosive tag on the scroll.
Konan threw the scroll with the explosive tag into the lake and quickly closed her palms, “Gojō Kibaku Fuda!” (Mutually Multiplying Explosive Tags)
Bang Bang Bang…
Countless explosive tags exploded the scroll to pieces!
Obviously, both the scroll and the corpses inside were all turned into pieces!
After finishing all this, Konan’s eyes slowly flushed with relief, and a pair of wings spread out behind her, driving her slowly to the sky.
Amegakure.
Above the Highest tower.
Nagato was thinkering Shurado Pain here. After hearing the sound of the door opening, he turned his head with a smile on his face and said, “How is it? Is Konan still angry?”
“What’s going on today?”
After Uehara waved his hand helplessly, his gaze immediately fell on Shurado’s body, “Oh? Does Shurado have any new component?”
“Well, didn’t you persuade me before? I have now made Shurado into a one-time use puppet that can explode and directly destroy everything in a radius of tens of kilometers through self-detonation as Pain’s last resort. “
Nagato casually put away Shurado Pain and whispered, “From now on, when you go out, take Shurado Pain! When you are in danger, you can use your healing technique to activate its self-destruct mechanism.”
“…”
Uehara shook his head speechlessly and then started the previous topic again, “What’s the matter today? How can Kimimaro and Haku become official members but not me? Hey hey, Nagato-sama, you promised to me before. I want to wear a uniform too!”
“Kona brought up those two children, so they naturally listened to Konan’s orders.”
Nagato glanced at him and sighed, “Uehara, if you hadn’t assassinated the Third Hokage this time, you would have become an official member when you come back…”
“…”
Uehara couldn’t help but twitched, “But I successfully assassinated the Third Hokage. Doesn’t it mean that I have become stronger?”
“But you have too much guts!”
Nagato shook his head and said in a deep voice, “The Five Great Ninja Village is not as simple as you imagined. Don’t do such dangerous things in the future. Even if you do, you must summon the Six Pains in advance!”
“Got it.”
Uehara waved his hand and said, “Why are you now in the same camp with Konan-sensei, Nagato-sama? We should be in the same camp!”
“It’s too dangerous to be with you.”
Nagato glanced at Uehara and continued to shake his head dully: “If I knew you were so bold, I will…”
“Hey, what’s done, is done.”
Uehara hurriedly interrupted Nagato’s words and said loudly, “Anyway, you promised me when you were communicating with me before, you will let me put on Akatsuki’s uniform and become a full member!”
“It’s just a small matter.”
Nagato patted Uehara’s shoulder and said in a deep voice, “After I take care of everything, you will be the Akatsuki’s new leader…”
Uehara, “…”
The minds of Konan and Nagato were outrageous. One wants him to be the leader of Amegakure, and the other wants him to be the leader of Akatsuki. He just wants to complete the mission of wearing an official uniform of Akatsuki!
“Hurry up and give me a task.”
Uehara patted Nagato and urged anxiously, “I’m a little worried that Konan-sensei will force me to succeed the village leader tomorrow. If I become one, it may be difficult to leave the village in the future. I will go out today and hide for a while.”
To be honest, Uehara felt a little afraid to come back. Konan and Nagato placed too much hope on him, but he just wanted to be a man behind the scenes.
Of course, Nagato refused him. He shook his head and rejected his proposal, “If Konan can’t find you, she will trouble me…”
“Are you helping?”
Uehara folded his arm.
Nagato couldn’t help but whisper, “Okay, I just have a task here. You are going to attack and destroy Kusagakure. This task was originally for Sasori and Deidara to be completed, and it’s yours now…”
“Is there a reason?”
“Yes, for a good reason.”
Nagato nodded and explained in a deep voice, “The area of ??the Country of Grass is connected to the Country of Earth and the Country of Fire. After Kusagakure is destroyed, the two countries will definitely have disputes over the ownership of the land in the Country of Grass;
Moreover, the Konoha and Iwa ninjas who sneak into the Country of Rain will also be sent to the Country of Grass, reducing our chances of exposure. “
Nagato slowly closed his hand and continued with a deep voice, “The last reason is something I heard from Karin. Her mother was also a descendant of the Uzumaki clan but died under the abuse of this village…”
Perhaps this reason was the most important.
As the relationship between Uehara and Nagato got better and better, Nagato gradually became more and more human. He gradually learned to be gentle and angry again.
Karin and her mother were descendants of the Uzumaki clan. In a sense, they were also Nagato clan members, and he naturally has some thoughts to recover this debt.
“Fine!”
Uehara nodded solemnly, and he glanced at the Shurado in the room again and said softly, “I will bring the Shurado out to act together!”
“Okay.”
After Nagato nodded earnestly, he added, “I heard that Kusagakure has been planning to start a war recently. Maybe you can find evidence if they are trying to start a war against Amegakure. I can also make Konan think you are just doing business…”
“I see. When I go back, I will bring you gifts!”
Uehara left Nagato’s room instantaneously and his face became serious!
If he remembers correctly, there should be a hidden base near the border of Kusagakure.
