Konoha, was reported by the Fourth Hokage at the beginning

Chapter 206 The first attrition

"Brother Li, you didn't kill those two Iwagakure ninjas, did you?" Yahiko looked at Li Yao uneasily, fearing that Li Yao would kill them.

"No." Li Yao said: "I know the seriousness, so after finding out why they attacked us, we had a friendly exchange with them and let them go back."

"That's good." Yahiko breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that people from the three major countries would die, causing greater hatred and making it difficult to communicate.

At this time, Xiaonan noticed what Li Yao said about why they attacked them, and quickly asked: "Brother Li, why did they attack us?"

Li Yao replied: "The three major countries thought that the rise of our Akatsuki organization in the Kingdom of Rain was due to the support of other major countries. They were afraid that we would sneak attack on them during the war, so they came to find out whether we were a puppet organization secretly supported by the hidden village of other major countries."

"This..." Yahiko, Xiaonan and others did not expect such a reason. They just developed well and became a thorn in the eyes of others.

"Just because of this, they killed our companions!!"

"I do not accept."

"...They cannot die in vain."

"Those bastards must pay."

The death of his companion was simply because the three major powers suspected that their organization was a puppet secretly supporting each other. This was unacceptable to many people present.

Even this reason made them feel that their lives were insulted in the eyes of the three major countries.

The three major countries did not take their lives seriously at all, and killed 26 of their companions just because of suspicion.

"Brother Yahiko..." Everyone turned their attention to Yahiko, looking forward to Yahiko's choice.

However, facing the expectant eyes of everyone, Yahiko shook his head and said: "Killing to stop killing will only bring about greater hatred. This is not what our Akatsuki organization should do."

"Could it be...that their death was in vain?" Someone immediately retorted.

"No." Yahiko said loudly with a firm look on his face: "As long as we unite as one and continue to work hard for peace, until the day we bring peace to the Land of Rain and the Ninja World,...their death will not be in vain."

"Otherwise, if we deviate from the peaceful ideals of the Akatsuki organization today, then... they will truly die in vain, and all our previous efforts will be meaningless."

"But..." Some people are still unwilling to accept that their companions died in vain, but they can only watch and can do nothing.

Yahiko said: "I will go to negotiate with the ninjas of the three major countries, let them admit their mistakes and apologize, and no longer be hostile to our Akatsuki organization. Only when hatred is resolved can peace be ushered in, otherwise there will be no end and peace will not come."

It must be said that Yahiko has great leadership skills.

After his speech on the concept of peace, everyone present basically calmed down. Although there was still hatred in their eyes, they no longer mentioned the matter of revenge against the ninjas of the three major countries.

It's just...an organization that cannot avenge the sacrifice of its companions, no matter how powerful its ideals are, how many people will remain loyal.

It can be seen that after the decision of today's conversation was announced, the Akatsuki organization will experience its first major downsizing.

Sure enough, that night, three of the senior cadres proposed to Yahiko their decision to withdraw from the Akatsuki organization.

"I'm sorry, Brother Yahiko, we still can't forget the harm caused to us by the three major countries."

Although they understood and even hoped for the peace that Yahiko said, the three of them became more and more angry after returning.

They still couldn't forgive the ninjas of the three major countries for killing their companions.

There is no way to sit back and let the ninjas of the three major countries safely evacuate.

"But..." Yahiko wanted to persuade the three of them again.

"Take care." The three of them were probably also afraid of Yahiko's sudden escape, so they immediately used the teleportation technique to leave without giving Yahiko a chance to continue.

Li Yao looked on and shook his head.

Yahiko's idea is still too naive.

Hatred is the basis of what makes a person human. There is no world without hatred. If there is, it must be the world of Infinite Tsukuyomi.

Resolving hatred does require mutual understanding.

But the prerequisite for mutual understanding is mutual fear.

Only under the premise of fearing each other, can the two haters sit down quietly to negotiate and communicate and finally reach an agreement of mutual understanding.

When you kill a fish and eat it, do you and the fish understand each other?
No.

Therefore, in the eyes of a strong person, it is only natural that you will be killed and eaten by him like a fish.

In this case, is it possible for you to still want to understand each other with a strong person?
impossible.

Therefore, Yahiko's ideal is destined to be in vain.

Only strong strength is the basis for mutual understanding.

Senju Hashirama knew this very well, so he fulfilled his wish and established a ninja village.Yahiko has not realized this yet, and the road to realizing his ideal is destined to be difficult.

the next day.

At the Devil's Tongue entrance on the top of the tower building, Yahiko said: "Over there in the Kingdom of Wind, please leave it to Brother Li and Sister Ye Zi."

"No problem." Li Yao smiled, and Little Ye Zi nodded and stood beside Li Yao.

"Let's go find the ninjas of Konoha." Yahiko looked at Konan and Nagato, and they nodded in agreement.

The five of them then split up into two groups to find the people from Sunagakure and Konoha.

……

Southern part of the Rain Country.

Inside a black rock cave.

Two ninjas from Sunagakure Village were sitting cross-legged on the ground, making seals with their hands.

The two sat down, each with a black sealing pattern connected to the body of an Akatsuki member between them.

The members of the Akatsuki organization emitted bursts of steam.

Sunagakure and the other two were using memory exploration techniques on this member of the Akatsuki organization.

After a while, Sunagakure and the two stopped and said to the young ninja sitting next to them: "Master Fengxing, we have found all the top leaders of the Akatsuki organization."

"Is there anyone from Konoha and Iwagakure?" Feng Xing asked with a focused gaze.

"I didn't see it." One of them shook his head and said: "The leader of the Akatsuki organization is called Yahiko. He is an orphan from the Kingdom of Rain. The other four core high-level officials are also orphans. I didn't see anyone from Konoha and Iwagakure appearing. .”

"That's it!" Feng Xing frowned and thought for a while, then said: "It seems that we can only talk to the leader of the Xiao organization."

In the past half month, they have secretly learned various information about the Akatsuki organization from the minds of seven Akatsuki organization members.

It's a pity that the status of these members of the Akatsuki organization is not high. From their memories, there is no trace of the support of Iwagakure and Konoha behind the Akatsuki organization.

To find out the true situation of the Akatsuki organization, we can only go to the leader of the Akatsuki organization to communicate.

As for how to communicate?

The young man Fengxing held his katana and smiled slightly on his face, but the smile just appeared and stopped halfway before it fully bloomed.

"Who!"

Feng Xing stood up suddenly and turned around. As he turned around, he instantly drew out his samurai sword and swung it towards the entrance of the cave.

Zheng!
In an instant, a sharp slashing wind blade shot out from the katana and shot towards the entrance of the cave.

"what!"

Li Yao's eyes suddenly lit up. This young Sunagakure ninja has such strong wind escape chakra. The wind blade released from the katana is no longer a simple wind blade. It has extremely sharp attributes like slashing, and is much sharper than ordinary ones. The wind blade is much stronger.

Facing this blow, Li Yao stretched out his hand and struck it with the same wind blade.

Zheng!
hiss!
The two wind blades collided for a moment. Li Yao input more wind escape chakra and the huge wind blade was cut open after a moment of stalemate.

"Not bad!"

Li Yao dodged in an instant, looking at the smooth gaps cut by thin chops on the ground and above the cave, and looked at the young Sunagakure ninja with increasingly satisfied eyes.

I didn't expect such good luck.

We just found the Earth Escape clone, and now the Wind Escape clone is here too.

"Earth Release-Earth Dragon Lift!"

"Earth Escape-Sand Transformation Technique!"

The moment after Li Yao and the young Sunagakure ninja Feng Xing exchanged moves, the two Sunagakures immediately used earth escape to lift themselves up, and at the same time turned the rocks above the cave into gravel.

Boom!

The cave collapsed and Li Yao retreated. The rocky hill in front of him turned into a ball of gravel and exploded. The young Sunagakure and the other two Sunagakure ninjas fell to the side in mid-air.

At this time, the three of them could clearly see the faces of Li Yao and Xiao Yezi.

"Master Fengxing is two of the top five core members of the Akatsuki organization. I don't know their names. Members of the Akatsuki organization generally call them Brother Li and Sister Ye."

The two Sunagakure, who had just explored the memories of Akatsuki members and obtained the identities of Li Yao and Xiao Zizi, hurriedly said to the young man in the middle, Fengxing.
