Konoha: Prepare to defect, the system is coming.

Chapter 611: Develop a bond with me?

The Land of Rain, the Rain Ninja Village.

pat!

A white, somewhat inhuman foot stepped into the puddle, allowing the cold water to flow over the instep.

As a country with less sunshine and rain all year round, the temperature in the Rain Country is a bit damp and cold compared to Konoha.

Even in summer, people living here don't have the habit of going out wearing short sleeves, and they will not deliberately step into puddles and let the cold water take away the little heat in their bodies.

So, when they heard someone deliberately stepping into a puddle, they were wondering whose naughty child this was and who was not afraid of catching a cold.

But when they looked in the direction of the sound and discovered that the person treading water was a head taller than them, their eyes suddenly changed.

"Where did this fool come from?!"

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!
Ignoring the disgusted looks of the people around him, the owner of the white paws kept stepping into the same puddle like a child, letting the yellow-brown mud spots get on his body.

"Stop stepping on it, idiot!"

Black Zetsu looked at the mud spots on the auspicious cloud robe and suddenly felt a little regretful for coming out with Uzumaki Zetsu. If he had known this would happen, he would have just found a White Zetsu to possess him.

Hearing this, Xuanwo Jue stopped treading water, then looked up at the sky, revealing a half-black and half-white face.

It felt the coolness of the drizzle hitting its face, then turned its eyes to look at the black face on the left, and said in surprise, "Jue, I just discovered a secret while treading water."

"What secret?" Black Zetsu frowned, somewhat curious about what this idiot would say.

“The climate here in the Rain Country is not very good. It rains all year round and the air humidity is quite high. Foods like meatballs are very easy to spoil. If the meatballs cannot be sold out, they will definitely go bad if left overnight and will have to be thrown away.

In order to prevent waste, we can only send it out on the same day.”

Seeing Uzumaki Zetsu's excited face, Hei Zetsu was suddenly stunned, and then a bad feeling surged in his heart.

next second.

Uzumaki Jue clapped his hands, and after attracting curious glances from passers-by, he said with a playful smile, "Yeah, yeah, although the shortcomings here are great, the advantages are also great.

Because meatballs are not easy to preserve, few people sell them; because few people sell them, there is little competition; because there is little competition, sales are good; because sales are good, one can make a fortune.

Absolutely, if the meatballs are not easy to preserve, it means you can get rich.

Invest in me!!”

Snapped!
Black Zetsu slapped his forehead and looked at the sky with a look of despair.

stupid!
How stupid!

Why would it expect anything from an idiot? What secrets could an idiot discover?
Black Zetsu felt that if any normal person stood here and saw the desolate business environment of the Rain Country and the people who were pale and thin with patched clothes, they would also know that selling meatballs in the Rain Country was not a good idea.

"If you can't sell all of them on the same day, just give them away? Can you sell ten skewers a day? I'll give you Konan's title of angel." Black Zetsu thought of the account book it saw in Konoha not long ago, and immediately covered its chest with its hands, looking painful as if it was about to have a guilty conscience.

It saves money to ensure the smooth implementation of the plan, not to serve as an angel for these people in the ninja world.

Afterwards, Uzumaki Jue lowered his head to look at the puddle, and with the help of the reflection in the water, he saw the half-black and half-white face. At this time, the facial features on the black side were obviously distorted, and the yellow-brown pupils had become a little red.

“Ah, ah!” Noticing that Black Zetsu seemed angry, it immediately shook its head and consoled him, “When doing business, how could you not lose money in the past two years?”

After saying that, it saw that Hei Zetsu was still ignoring it with a cold face, so Uzumaki Zetsu licked the corner of his lips and continued.

"Do you know why I have the courage to keep running the store even though I know I will lose money? Because of you, absolutely, you are the motivation for me to keep running the store. You are the reason why I dare to keep running the store even though I know I will lose money."

"Under your wise and far-sighted leadership, I know that losing money is only temporary, and we will definitely make a fortune in the future."

"This is just like a thousand years ago. It is because of your presence that the adult has the opportunity to escape from the predicament today. Sometimes, I really admire your ability. No matter what difficulties there are, they become a very simple matter for you."

Hearing these praises, Black Zetsu's expression relaxed and his originally distorted expression became calm.

It has been flattering others for thousands of years, but this is the first time it is flattered by the honest, sincere, and lie-proof White Zetsu. This change in status makes Black Zetsu a little uncomfortable for a while.

"Go on!" Black Zetsu replied indifferently, then walked towards the Rain Village with firm steps.

"Jue, for thousands of years, you have always been full of hope and fighting spirit. Even in the most difficult times, you have constantly encouraged yourself not to give up. Your unrivaled decision-making ability has not caused any major mistakes in thousands of years."

As he spoke, Uzumaki Jue's face suddenly showed some emotion.

What it said just now was not all flattery, there was indeed a lot of heartfelt praise in it.

As a White Zetsu with independent thoughts, especially after learning about the history of the ninja world, it found that there is no more inspirational person in the entire ninja world than Black Zetsu.

Even in the hot-blooded comics that are popular in the ninja world today, the experiences of the protagonists there are not even one-tenth of Black Zetsu's.

To some extent, Black Zetsu is the protagonist of the hot-blooded comics.

Noticing that his ears suddenly became quiet, Hei Zetsu looked to the side in surprise.

When it discovered that Uzumaki Zetsu was looking at it with eyes full of admiration, even Black Zetsu, who had seen a lot of ups and downs, had to admit that no matter from which angle you looked at it, this was from the heart.

"Absolutely!"

At this time, Uzumaki Jue also came back to his senses. He gave a thumbs up and praised, "You are the hot-blooded comic protagonist in my mind, the kind who can do anything."

Looking in the mirror at Uzumaki Zetsu's eyes that couldn't be more sincere, Hei Zetsu tried his best to suppress the upturned corners of his mouth and said lightly.

“How much does it cost to open a meatball shop?”

Hearing this, Xuanwo Jue was shocked, and immediately stretched out his fingers to count, "20 is just enough, 30 can rent a good location, 50 can be in the Rain Country"

Before it could finish, Black Zetsu waved his hand and said a number very generously, "One million!!"

Seeing Black Zetsu's heroic look, Uzumaki Zetsu suddenly hesitated. After a while, he said sullenly, "Isn't it too much? I'll pay for it when the time comes."

Hearing this, Black Zetsu raised his head and looked towards the sky. Coincidentally, the dark clouds began to dissipate at this moment, and the long-lost sunlight poured onto the earth through the gaps between the dark clouds, shining on it and giving it a layer of sacred light.

Followed by.

Suddenly, a hoarse and confident voice came from the air. "How can you not lose money in the first two years of doing business? Just like how I have been executing plans for thousands of years, how can I not fail?

But in the end, it always works out, doesn’t it? "

"Can it really succeed?"

at this time.

A room in Rain Village.

Xiao Nan sat on the chair, with a hint of vigilance in his cold eyes.

Just now, the companion who called himself "Uchiha Madara" suddenly came over and said that the preliminary preparations for the Moon Eye Project were ready and could be implemented at any time.

Although this half-black, half-white man and "Uchiha Madara" have not been in the organization for long.
But there had already been contact between the two sides
The contact can even be traced back to when Yahiko was still alive.

Thinking of this, she stared at Zetsu opposite her, and said slowly in a cold voice, "Since our first meeting, you have been promoting the so-called Moon Eye Project, but it was rejected by Yahiko at that time.

Later, Yahiko died, and you appeared next to Nagato again, continuing to promote the so-called Moon Eye Project. This time Nagato did not refuse and asked you to join the organization.

In just over a year, you claim that everything is ready and you can start implementing your plan, but isn't that too fast?

It is hard not to think that you have had this idea for a long time and have already put it into action. You have ulterior motives in joining us and cannot help Nagato realize his own wish."

Facing Konan's cold eyes, Black Zetsu could not help but remain silent. The main reason was that he did not expect that the preparation plan would be completed so smoothly. According to his budget, even if there were no accidents with the tailed beasts, the preparation work would take six to seven years.

but.
It was Uchiha Asuka's idea to directly raise the organization's start-up capital.

The addition of Uchiha Asuka, Ye Cang, Orochimaru and others has completed the organization's high-end combat power.

Black Zetsu has already known the situation of the tailed beasts in the major ninja villages thoroughly, and now he even knows what time the Jinchūriki poop every day.

Black Zetsu feels that continuing to delay is a sheer waste of time.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah!"

Just as Black Zetsu fell silent, Uzumaki Zetsu beside him couldn't help but suddenly said, "Don't say it so harshly, use the words of a certain Uchiha friend of mine.

We are not taking advantage of each other, but cooperating and achieving win-win results.”

As it spoke, it looked at Xiaonan's stunned expression, raised a finger, and continued to explain, "You said that we already had this idea, and I agree with this, because after years of research, we found that it is difficult to achieve peace in the ninja world. Since then, this plan has sprouted in our hearts.

Probably a few decades ago.”

Looking at Uzumaki Zetsu's serious and nonsense look, Hei Zetsu was silent for a while and did not interrupt him, but continued to listen to what this guy had to say.

In the past year, perhaps because of too much contact with humans, Uzumaki Jue's wisdom has increased many times more than before.

"As for the second point"

At this point, Xuanwo Jue suddenly raised his finger and said seriously, "You said we had already taken action? That's true. We took action as soon as we thought of the plan.

At that time, Lord Madara took the lead in capturing the Nine-Tails and rode it to attack Konoha, preparing to destroy the Konoha Ninja Village in one fell swoop and reduce the resistance encountered in implementing the Moon Eye Plan.

You must have heard about what happened later, and the result was not quite what you had imagined.

Since then, we have been lying low and preparing in secret, probably for decades.”

Seeing Jue talking seriously about the Moon Eye Project, Xiaonan narrowed his eyes slightly, trying to find some loopholes in it, but finally shook his head helplessly.

Ever since they first joined the Akatsuki organization, Konan felt that they had ill intentions, until now when they suddenly came and said that the Moon Eye Project could begin. Not only did Konan's vigilance not decrease, but became even greater.

However, due to limited information.
She had no idea whether these people's purpose was really as they said at the beginning, just for the peace of the ninja world.
"As for the third point!"

Just as Xiaonan was thinking, Uzumaki Zetsu stood up and spoke again, "We joined the Akatsuki organization with ulterior motives? No, no, no, while we were implementing our plan, we met you who also hoped for peace in the ninja world.

We will work together to achieve peace in the Ninja World, and then I will open meatball shops all over the Ninja World and distribute the unsold meatballs to the poor civilians in the Ninja World."

Xiaonan found that this guy was digressing and the look in his eyes when he looked at Jue became gradually weird.

She never thought that after this guy achieved peace in the Ninja World, he would open meatball shops all over the Ninja World and give away the unsold meatballs to help the poor.
"What a simple idea." Seeing Jue's sincere eyes, Xiaonan opened his mouth slightly, a little shocked on his face, as if he met this guy for the first time.

"Oh, this is my business card, and this is the account book of my store!" Seeing Xiaonan looking at him with vigilance, Uzumaki Jue scratched his head, then suddenly remembered something and hurriedly handed over the things he had packed.

"Konohagakure-Afei's Special Meatball Shop!"

After carefully looking at the information on the business card, Xiaonan subconsciously opened the account book handed to him by the other party. After flipping through a few pages at random, he fell into silence.

As the person in charge of the Akatsuki organization's treasury, she understands the account books. Even if she doesn't understand the account books, Konan still recognizes the "minus sign" on the account books.

Daily expenses and income.
All negative? ?
In other words, this crappy meatball shop is losing money every day, and has been losing money for more than a year?

Seeing Xiaonan suddenly fall into deep thought, Uzumaki Zetsu slightly curled his lips, knowing that the other party didn't trust them at all, and then said, "Actually, it doesn't matter if you don't trust us.

But achieving peace is Yahiko's wish, and the difficulty you face is that the five major countries are unwilling to listen to you. In other words, your strength is too small and your voice is too small.

If you were stronger, the five major ninja villages wouldn't dare to speak loudly to you."

These words made Xiaonan fall into silence.

There was actually nothing wrong with Akatsuki's original idea (communication between people). The problem was that the leaders of Akatsuki were too naive and too weak.

Later, due to Yahiko's departure, Nagato's philosophy changed. He held an endless hatred towards the major ninja villages and no longer believed that "communication" could solve disputes in the ninja world.
At this time, Uchiha Madara appeared again and provided Nagato with a new idea.

Then, Konan silently raised her head and looked at the clear sky outside, recalling the conversation between her and Nagato in her mind.

"Nagato, the purpose of those two may not be as simple as they say. Is it really okay to let them join?"

“It doesn’t matter, I can probably guess their purpose.

Uchiha Madara needs an organization that can cover his identity for his own reasons, and coincidentally, Akatsuki is seriously lacking in high-end combat power and also needs strong teammates. "

"Nagato, but..."

"Konan, I can feel that Uchiha Madara and I are actually the same kind of people. We are both completely disappointed with this world and have the same ideals and want to change the world.

There is no place for us in this world anymore. We can only be the enemy of this world.

And their idea of ​​collecting the tailed beasts and making tailed beast weapons is indeed a good one.

As for those things you worry about
Don't worry, no one will kill me before Yahiko's wish is fulfilled, even if that person is Uchiha Madara."

As the voice in his mind became smaller and smaller, Xiaonan's distracted eyes regained focus, and he looked at the strange man sitting opposite him.

As long as Nagato agreed, even if she had doubts in her heart, she would not find any reason to stop the plan from starting.

What's more, there is no flaw in what the other party said just now.
The plan was made decades ago, and the preparations have been made for decades. Now everything is ready.
Thinking of this, Xiaonan looked at the half-black and half-white man in front of him and said hesitantly.

"It still feels a little too fast. How about waiting a few years?"

Uzumaki Jue was slightly stunned, and subconsciously asked, "Wait a few years? Do you want to cultivate a bond with me? Wait for a long time, eliminate the distrust between each other, and then execute the plan?"

Xiaonan: “.”

Hearing these inexplicable words, her face turned dark and she couldn't help but roar in her heart.

"Cultivate bonds with God"

"I don't trust you at all, okay?"

"This distrust is distrust, and it can't be dispelled by spending a few more years together. I just want to delay it for a few more years."

After venting his anger, Xiaonan's complexion returned to normal.

In fact, as long as Nagato knew that the plan could be implemented, he would most likely agree. But every time Konan thought of this, she still felt a little uneasy. She always felt that the plan might not be as good as they described.

"Moon Eye Project"

Xiaonan sat in the chair blankly, looking up at the street outside. She didn't even notice when Jue left.

Looking at the gradually clearing sky, Nagato's figure appeared in her mind, and she said to herself, "No one can stop Nagato's decision, not me, not even Nagato himself.

Because that is Yahiko’s wish.”

"And because of the awakening of 'those eyes', Nagato always has a sense of urgency. He doesn't want to sit in a chair every day, watching his vitality slowly drain away while he can do nothing."

"Long ago, probably the day when Nagato first learned about the plan, he couldn't wait to implement the plan, to fulfill Yahiko's wish, to capture the tailed beasts of the major ninja villages, right?"

"In order to prevent being exposed and to capture all nine tailed beasts in one go, Nagato has been forbearing and waiting for the right opportunity."

“Now the preparations are complete”
