Became the mastermind behind the Akatsuki organization

Chapter 17 White Night's Invitation

Deep underground.

The white-haired Uchiha Madara is observing the battle with Obito through the projection of White Zetsu.

Long before transplanting the Rinnegan to Nagato, Uchiha Madara had been paying attention to Konoha, hoping to select a suitable successor from the Uchiha of Konoha.

As a pawn to monitor Nagato and implement the Moon Eye Plan after his death.

For this day, he chose the kind-hearted Uchiha Obito early on, and observed Obito for several years, and finally confirmed him as his successor.

After confirming that Obito could inherit the title of Uchiha Madara, Uchiha Madara began to create opportunities.

Finally, a week ago, Uchiha Madara found this opportunity. He controlled the Iwagakure ninja to put Obito into a state of suspended animation, and then sent White Zetsu to rescue him, completing the subjugation of Obito and leading him into darkness step by step.

But at this moment, Uchiha Madara noticed Bai Ye and others who had intruded into the battle.

The appearance of Bai Ye and others completely disrupted his plan. Judging from the current situation, these two Rock Ninjas would be easily defeated, and Obito would never be able to enter a near-death state.

If he intervened now, it would be too late and there would be the risk of being perceived.

After all, Nagato, who had the Rinnegan transplanted, was also there. Although Nagato's control of the Rinnegan was not as good as his, he could still utilize some of the Rinnegan's power.

What puzzled Uchiha Madara the most was why Nagato, who should have stayed in the Land of Rain, suddenly appeared on the battlefield of Kusagakure Village.

In order to find out what happened, Uchiha Madara called in White Zetsu, who was responsible for monitoring Nagato's movements.

"Mr. Madara, Nagato left the Hidden Rain Village half a month ago. He has been staying in the Hidden Grass Village all this time. He also had a big fight with Byakuya and Konan from the Akatsuki organization in the Hidden Grass Village, and rescued an Uzumaki ninja..."

"Bai Ye?" Uchiha Madara looked puzzled, and then began to ask about Bai Ye's news.

"Master Madara, Byakuya is a ninja from the Akatsuki organization..."

After hearing some information about Bai Ye, Uchiha Madara finally understood why he had never heard of this person. Apart from Nagato and Uchiha ninjas, ninjas from other places would hardly catch his eye.

The same is true for Bai Ye, who is at the level of a jonin. He is not worth his attention at all.

However, after hearing that Byakuya attacked the Kusagakure Building alone and made the entire Kusagakure Village run around in circles, Uchiha Madara became more interested. After all, Byakuya was only in his teens.

If he continues to grow, he may become a ninja like Hanzo of the Salamander in time.

As he continued listening, Uchiha Madara's eyes lit up after hearing about Bai Ye's violent treatment of the wandering ninjas. If it were him from the past, he would also have chosen to wipe out the ninja completely.

But unfortunately, the path he chose before was wrong, and now he has found the right path.

After learning all the information, Uchiha Madara turned his attention back to the projection, but his focus shifted from Obito to the battle itself.

Since this plan has failed, let's just watch the fight between the young people.

During the decades spent underground, Uchiha Madara's body gradually aged.

Dragging this old body, Uchiha Madara doesn't want to show up at all. He can only satisfy his eyes by watching the projection of White Zetsu. The real battle may only wait until he is resurrected.

the other side.

After Byakuya rescued Nohara Rin, Kakashi and Obito finally put their minds at ease, and the others also breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, everyone focused their attention on Mazhi and Huoguang. As long as they dealt with these two Iwagakure jonin, the operation would be successfully completed. Seeing the enemy approaching step by step, Mazhi and Huoguang's faces became more and more ugly.

His palms were sweating and he couldn't hold the dagger, his back was also wet with sweat, and despair appeared in his eyes.

Just the few enemies in front of them seemed too much for them to handle, and the scene where Bai Ye was resisting the detonating talisman made them realize how powerful the enemy was.

These Rain Ninjas who support Konoha Ninja are definitely not ordinary ninjas, they are at least Jonin of the same level.

With the severe shortage of manpower, even escape was a luxury. It seemed that they could only detonate the detonator above and risk their lives.

The demon leech and the firelight looked at each other, then gritted their teeth, formed seals, and slapped the ground.

"Earth Release·Split the Earth and Turn the Palm!"

"Tu Dun·Tu Liubi!"

With a low roar, smooth cracks appeared on the ground and the ceiling, and then began to collapse at an extremely fast speed.

Within a few breaths, countless huge rocks fell from above, which could submerge the entire cave at any time.

Seeing this scene, everyone present started to flee and ran towards the outside of the cave. The scene was extremely chaotic.

In the chaos, Maji and Huo Guang did not forget to attack Kakashi and Obito, hoping to eliminate the genius of Konoha here. If possible, they also wanted to bring the news of the cooperation between Rain Ninja and Konoha back to the village.

This is very important for the village.

However, at this moment, detonating talismans flew in from the outside of the cave and covered the demon leech and the firelight. As a burst of fire lit up, the two were directly engulfed in the fire.

Obviously, this was a trap set by Bai Ye outside the cave in advance. There was no way he would let the Iwa Ninja leave alive.

Ten seconds later, everyone left the cave smoothly and stood in the open space outside the cave, looking at the collapsing mountain in the distance, sighing in their hearts.

With such a large-scale landslide, even an elite jonin would have difficulty surviving.

After recovering from the shock, Nohara Lin in Bai Ye's arms said shyly: "Can you put me down? It's not that dangerous now."

Bai Ye nodded and put Nohara Lin down.

Seeing this scene, Obito on the side was very envious and jealous.

He hadn't hugged Lin yet, but someone else got there first. However, the other person was the one who saved Lin, so he couldn't get angry at him and could only complain in his heart.

Nohara Lin stood on the ground again, her face still a little red, and gave Bai Ye an embarrassed smile: "Thank you for what happened just now, if it weren't for you, I might have died."

"You're welcome, this is a deal in itself."

Bai Ye dusted himself off and said calmly, "However, after escaping death this time, I advise you not to be a ninja. For you, becoming an ordinary person may be the best choice."

Nohara Lin didn't quite understand, but she nodded in front of her savior: "I'll seriously consider it."

At this time, Obito and Kakashi came near Nohara Rin. The former asked about Nohara Rin's well-being, while the latter looked at Bai Ye and asked slowly:
"Captain Bai Ye, thank you for your help this time. I don't know how to thank you."

Hearing this, Bai Ye smiled and said, "If you really want to thank me, why not join our organization? Then we will all be companions of the same organization, and it is only natural for us to help each other."
