A few days later, the Land of Birds.
Four shinobi wearing traditional Akatsuki turtle-neck robes were walking through the dense forest.
Glancing at Hiruko next to him, Sasori who was hiding in the armor of Hiruko's puppet complained, Sassori said, “I really don't understand why Pain agreed to your unreasonable request and tasked all members of the organization to kidnap so many shinobi with a different Kekkei Genkai! ”
Hiruko was not bothered by Sasori's question and spoke, "Even the leader with Rikudo Sennin's eyes should realize that my plan was very useful, therefore, it is, he took my request seriously and agreed to help me with the strength of the organization!"
Inferiority has always been hidden in Hiruko's heart, she has always wanted to prove herself and show that she is also not inferior to any legendary shinobi, but his mediocre talent always got in his way which caused him to be ignored countless times. .
When he was in Konoha, Hiruko did everything she could to prove herself that she was not inferior to Sannin, but the difference between Sannin and him was too wide and the difference continued to get bigger as time went on.
Unwilling to accept this reality, and angry at himself for not being good enough, Hiruko breaks through all the moral shackles and studies the human body, and performs many crazy and cruel human experiments.
The Chimera Technique was the culmination of his hard work and the fact that the leader Akatsuki chose to support the Kekkei Genkai Theft Plan, deeply touched Hiruko's heart, and made her very happy.
Hiruko's greatest desire is not strength, but recognition, and the fact that Pain, who owns Rinnegan, eyes Rikudo Sennin in favor of his plan, which in itself is similar to recognition, and this also makes him feel like he has Akatsuki. .
Sasori snorted in disdain after hearing Hiruko's words.
Hiruko did not care about Tsundere Sasori's demeanor and spoke with a smile, "Sasori, I must tell you that your choice to release your physical body is wrong!"
Sasori stopped and looked at Hiruko with a murderous gaze, his eyes carrying the killing intent that he would kill Hiruko at any time and make her a puppet, "Foolish man, he said, do you think you have the qualifications to challenge my art?"
In his previous battle against Sandaime Hokage, Sasori lost an arm, which motivated him to finally give up his useless human body and completely turn his body into a puppet.
Hiruko chose to disregard the term 'qualification' and said, "You don't need to get angry because of this little suggestion, the facts will prove everything to you!"
Sasori said coldly, "When you have completed your so-called plan, I will teach you directly about my doll!"
Unlike Sasori and Hiruko who are always in conflict, Shinno and Kakuzu who are in front are mostly silent with a few words occasionally.
At this moment, Shinno smiled and spoke, "The task this time will be very troublesome for Kakuzu-san, I just hope that it won't delay Kakuzu-san's personal affairs for too long."
Everyone in Akatsuki knows Kakuzu loves money very much and they all understand this fully that as long as there is free time in between given tasks, Kakuzu would definitely go to the Dark Market to take on gift tasks and earn more money, therefore, Kakuzu was generally a very busy person.
Kakuzu said with a grim expression, "Not only the Fire Nation, but even other countries persecute and suppress the Black Market circle, therefore no decent tasks are available in the Dark Market!"
Shinno spoke with a sullen expression, "Amatsukami's actions have caused more damage to people like us haven't they?"
With his experience, Shinno has also mengamahi quite clearly with the pattern of the Shinobi world.
As far as he understood, the Akatsuki Organization he joined was a very powerful secret organization in the world, and no matter which shinobi village, Akatsuki was fully capable of destroying them and ruining the pattern of the shinobi world.
And the fact that the Amatsukami that appeared out of nowhere also seemed to have the same level of strength as Akatsuki, and had already started to pose a great threat to the five great villages, he said, it really made Shinno feel very surprised.
After thinking for a moment, Shinno asked, "Shinichi is also from the Uchiha Clan, shouldn't he know Homusubi's true identity?"
Kakuzu shook her head, “The last time I met him, I asked Shinichi if he knew who Homusubi was, all he said was 'I don't even know the slightest bit about who Homusubi is, I don't even know who Homusubi is, and how did he. just appear!' And based on his expression, I can judge that he did not lie about it.”
Shinno also muttered with a thoughtful expression, “First, the Ice Element user who can face off against Sandaime Hokage, then an unknown Uchiha with Mangekyou Sharingan who can fight against Kumogakure's AB Combo, and then an unknown Uchiha, then there was the Magnet Element user, and then there was the mysterious leader, 'Yama' such power was more than enough to completely destroy a small shinobi village within a few minutes if any. Even I can't understand how they just appear.”
Kakuzu snorted angrily, "Since I fought with Amatsukami, my source of income has been cut off, at our next battle, I must make sure that I take their hearts to make up for my defeat!"
After this, some small discussions continued, and soon, the four people arrived at a crossroads. One road leads to the Bear Country and the other to the Earth Country.
Sasori did not reply to Hiruko, only started walking towards the Earth Country together with Kakuzu to bring the Steel Element user as fast as possible and finish it off.
"
"
As Sasori and Kakuzu disappeared down the road, Hiruko and Shinno nodded at each other and moved towards the Bear Country.
…
Somewhere near the Whirlpool Land.
The explosion…
With a loud muffled sound from the collision with the wood, Uchiha Shinichi violently dropped several trees along the way and finally stopped his fall.
But before he could calm down, the high speed with the flickering shadow behind the smoke and dust disappeared instantly, and a moment later the fast Kunai pierced through his heart.
It was at this time that Biwa Juzo arrived with his Ikiribocho, and waved it aloud, slashing the entrance from behind with his trusty sword.
ding…
The sword carried by the shadow after it collided with Kubikiribocho, and for a moment some ear-piercing metallic clashing sounds echoed in the forest when suddenly there was a loud explosion.
After casting off the shadow for a while, Biwa Juzo watched his surroundings warily and retreated to near Shinichi who had recovered from the injury just a moment ago, "Are you okay?"
“*Puke**Shinichi spewed the blood stuck in his throat, and asked Juzo in an annoyed tone, “Turn me Juzo, why the hell are we fighting this guy!?”
Biwa Juzo said, “Of course since this is the leader's order, you can't complain about that.”
"But shouldn't he be controlled by some sort of 'Curse of Dolls'? Then why isn't he? The speed was too fast, I guess only Yondaime Raikage could match such speed!” – Shinichi stopped here and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and continued, “Even if I can track it with my Mangekyou Sharingan, what's the point if I can't even keep up with that strange speed!?”
Juzo also thought about what Shinichi said, based on the information they gave at the time they were given the stated task that the target would be under the control of the doll's curse, and their job is just to get him to the target destination safely, but that's not the case here.
“Well, for the time being, we can't find any reason why the doll curse that was supposed to work didn't work, we have to deal with it regardless of any problem, remember the details we have, we have, she is a shinobi with the Speed Type Kekkei Genkai, and the fact that she has pink hair definitely means she has Uzumaki Blood on her body!”
Shinichi nodded but he was more confused, "But wasn't the Uzumaki Clan annihilated by the four villages even before the Second Shinobi War began?"
Juzo sighed, “It is true that the Uzumaki Clan has been exterminated, but some members of this clan still exist in the shinobi world.”
Shinichi murmured with a pouting gaze, “Swift Release coupled with Uzumaki physique and a large Chakra reserve, this person was not only very fast but also very proficient in taijutsu to complete his Kekkei Genkai, the one who was not only very quick, it's gonna be hard to catch. This guy's alive!"
Biwa Juzo nodded and looked at Shinichi seriously, “Yes, so it's time you started taking this seriously. If we don't catch him, it will be hard to explain this to the leader, you can't laze around here unlike all the time. ”
Shinichi who reprimanded Juzo smiled faintly, "So all this time you noticed my laziness, huh?"
Juzo sighed, “I don't understand why you don't take anything Akatsuki-related seriously, but because you've decided to join the organization, you should at least do the mission regardless of whatever other things you have in mind, I Don't care what you do in your spare time, but it's about time you start taking it a little seriously, otherwise, I would have nothing to explain to the leader!
