Became the mastermind behind the Akatsuki organization

Chapter 143: Scorpion's Experience in Akatsuki
Scorpio doesn't think of himself as a puppet genius, but his life experience tells him that this is the fact.

From childhood to adulthood, he has never lost to others in puppetry. At a young age, he surpassed the village's most proficient puppeteer, and was hailed as the ninja most likely to surpass the founder of puppeteers, Bunzaemon.

Scorpion is also firm in this. He believes that sooner or later he will surpass Saemon and become the strongest puppeteer.

However, when he tried to increase the number of chakra lines and increase the number of puppets he controlled from ten to twenty, even at the cost of transforming his body.

The scene of Nagato and Byakuya fighting told him that puppets do not necessarily need chakra lines to be controlled. Using this strange black stick can also complete chakra transmission and control puppets from a long distance.

At this time, Bai Ye also noticed Scorpion's expression and a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

He knew about the little things that Scorpion had been doing secretly these days, but he did not stop him. His purpose was to undermine Scorpion's self-confidence in puppetry, so that Scorpion would understand the benefits of staying in Akatsuki and voluntarily stay in Akatsuki.

To this end, he specially organized this competition among the top leaders of the Akatsuki organization.

Now it seems that the performance is very effective. Scorpion will definitely give up the idea of ​​leaving and voluntarily stay in the Akatsuki organization to work for himself.

At this moment, Scorpion, who had been thinking for a long time, also saw the shortcomings of Black Stick in controlling puppets.

Although Bai Ye and Nagato can control puppets from a distance, their control accuracy is obviously not as good as his, and they want to control puppets from a distance.

In addition to the blackboard made of unknown material, a large amount of chakra is also required.

Although he has no shortage of chakra, his chakra is not as terrifying as that of these two monsters. When it comes to actual combat, the chakra line method is more practical.

However, this did not prevent him from learning this puppet manipulation technique and strengthening his own strength.

Thinking of this, Scorpion walked towards Bai Ye and Nagato. The two men who were evenly matched stopped fighting and looked at Scorpion who was walking towards them.

After a moment's silence, Scorpion slowly asked, "Bai Ye, what is this black stick called?"

"Black stick..."

Bai Ye said directly. After seeing that Scorpion's face was not right, he explained with a smile: "To be precise, it is a tool for receiving and transmitting chakra. It is a creation of Yin-Yang escape. Only Nagato can make it."

"The product of Yin Yang Escape?!"

Scorpion took a breath of cold air. He knew what Yin-Yang Escape meant.

Yin-Yang Escape is not just Yin Escape and Yang Escape, it involves extremely complex chakra changes. According to legend, only the Six Paths Sage has mastered the ability of Yin-Yang Escape.

At this moment, Scorpion suddenly noticed Nagato's eyes.

Nagato's ripple-like eyes reminded him of the legend of the Six Paths Sage in the ninja world. According to the legend, the Six Paths Sage possessed this pair of eyes, which were known as the Rinnegan, the bloodline of the strongest eye technique.

With these eyes, it’s no wonder that Akatsuki dared to formulate a plan to collect the tailed beasts!
Nagato might be the ninja who truly controls the Akatsuki organization behind the scenes, secretly coveting the entire ninja world and wanting to take it into his possession. Bai Ye is just one of Nagato's many subordinates.

However, the next moment, Scorpion's fantasy about Nagato was shattered.

After seeing Scorpion fall silent, Bai Ye said to Nagato, "Nagato, this is my new subordinate. He has a good command in puppetry. How about you make some black sticks for him to play with?"

Nagato glanced at Scorpion, then nodded and stretched out his hand to create a black stick.

Bai Ye took the black stick and looked directly at Scorpion, waved his hand and said, "Scorpion, it's time to wake up. This is a little gift from Nagato. You won't be distracted, will you?"

After coming to his senses, Scorpion carefully took the black stick.

Feeling the cool texture of the black stick, Scorpion sighed softly in his heart. He thought Nagato was the mastermind behind the incident, but he didn't expect that the person whose words really mattered was Bai Ye. How could he be targeted by such a person and recruited into the Akatsuki organization?

However, this black stick is indeed a good gift. At least it can be used to study the principles of chakra transmission.

If he could fully understand the principle, even if he did not master the Yin-Yang Escape, he would be able to find materials with similar uses and develop technology to remotely control puppets.

Thinking of this, Scorpion walked towards the laboratory.

He already had some good ideas, which could be further confirmed by starting experiments.

After Scorpion left, Nagato looked at Scorpion's back and asked, "Bai Ye, is this the ninja you just recruited? How strong is he?"

“Very strong!”

Xiaonan came over and continued:

"The Scorpion of the Red Sand is well-known in the black markets of various countries. He has also killed the top ninjas of the five great ninja villages, but no one knows who he is. I had the idea of ​​recruiting him to join the village before, but I didn't expect that you would get there first."

"If I had known that you were going to take action, Xiaonan, I would not have recruited him..."

After a pause, Bai Ye continued, "However, Scorpion of the Red Sand is not an ordinary ninja. He is a genius boy who assassinated the Third Kazekage and made him into a human puppet."

After hearing this, Konan and Nagato looked surprised.

The Red Sand Scorpion actually had such a past. He actually assassinated the Third Kazekage when he was only a teenager! What a rare genius!

The surprise lasted only half a second before they both returned to their original expressions.

For ordinary people, challenging a Five Kage-level ninja at the age of just over ten is a nearly impossible thing. Just hearing about it makes my blood boil.

But who among them is not a teenager who challenges the powerful in his teens?

Bai Ye also noticed the expressions of the two men and said with a smile: "I really troubled you this time. If you hadn't taken action to scare Xie, this guy would probably still be thinking about escaping. I can't deal with him alone."

Konan and Nagato also smiled and stared at Bai Ye with eyes that betrayed their inner thoughts.

Bai Ye, we are all old acquaintances. Everyone knows that you are the most unfathomable person in the organization. Apart from you, who else can be as strong as Nagato who possesses the Rinnegan?

……

This is the Red Sand Scorpion.

He just got the black stick sample and began to consider whether to take the opportunity to escape. He was worried that he would be too deeply involved in the Akatsuki organization and lose his choice.

But if he ran away, he would be hated by the Akatsuki organization and would never be able to take a single step in the ninja world.

Just when Scorpion was hesitating, an old man in the Akatsuki base caught his attention. This old man, who was in charge of training new recruits, was difficult for Scorpion, a genius puppeteer, to understand.

After careful perception and observation, he realized the old man's strength, and at the same time completely gave up the idea of ​​leaving Akatsuki.

What kind of terrorist organization is Akatsuki? How could the old man wandering around in the base be so powerful?
