Became the mastermind behind the Akatsuki organization

Chapter 408: The Secret of the Battle of the Valley of Ending
After the leader of the Allied Ninja Forces was chosen, it was time for the Six Kage Tournament to come to an end.

Next, the leaders of the major ninja villages only need to assemble the ninja troops to launch a war against the masked man and Uchiha Madara.

However, how to return to the Ninja Village from the Land of Iron is a big challenge for the Five Kage.

The Five Kage and their corresponding Shadow Guards are the most powerful forces in the entire ninja world. Even if they encounter a ninja force of thousands of people, they can deal with it.

But the ninja who threatened the Five Kage and the Shadow Guards was named Uchiha Madara.

If Uchiha Madara attacks the lone ninja village team, I am afraid that except for the Rain Village team, the other ninja village teams will suffer a miserable defeat, and even the chance of escape will be very slim.

But if he doesn't return to the ninja village, how can he gather his ninja troops?

Are we just relying on the spirit beast for communication?

Now it seems that this is the only way. Only in this way can we avoid being attacked by Uchiha Madara on the way back to the Ninja Village and avoid the Ninja Village’s high-level officials being wiped out.

A day later, the leaders of the five major ninja villages contacted their respective villages.

After opening the intelligence file, the faces of the five Kage changed one after another. They walked out of the room and wanted to hold a joint meeting to discuss the next response.

When they found Yahiko and Byakuya, the two were passing intelligence scrolls to each other.

Judging from the expressions of Yahiko and Byakuya, they seemed to have received bad news, and there was a high probability that it was the same as theirs, because of the ninja village behind them.

After seeing the arrival of the Five Kage, Yahiko and Byakuya said with a somewhat depressed look: "You came to us because the village was attacked."

The leaders looked at each other and nodded.

The Third Tsuchikage Ohnoki was the first to speak:
"While I was away, the Hidden Rock Village was attacked by unknown ninjas. The ninjas who attacked the village were the group called the White
Although the Hidden Rock Village defeated the White Zetsu, it also suffered considerable losses. "

The Fourth Raikage said angrily: "The Hidden Cloud Village was also attacked by White Zetsu, and the attackers, in addition to White Zetsu, also included some ninjas who defected from their own country."

The Red Sand Scorpion glanced at Bai Ye and said:

"The Sand Village didn't suffer serious casualties due to the puppet army, but the number of puppets destroyed has reached several hundred. If I hadn't taken the Jinchūriki away in advance, the consequences would have been disastrous."

Hearing this, Mei Terumi and Zabuza looked a little grim: "The Fourth Mizukage of the Hidden Mist Village has been abducted. According to the description of the Hidden Mist Anbu, the attackers are Uchiha Itachi and Hoshigaki Kisame."

"Uchiha Itachi and Hoshigaki Kisame kidnapped the Fourth Mizukage?"

As soon as these words were spoken, all the ninjas present were shocked.

They were surprised that the attackers were defectors from Konoha and the Hidden Mist Village, and even more surprised by the news that the Fourth Mizukage had been abducted. It seemed that the information that the Fourth Mizukage had lost his combat effectiveness was true.

Otherwise, how could the two defectors kidnap the Fourth Mizukage in the Hidden Mist Village where there are so many experts?

Tsunade quickly explained: "Konoha will definitely send people to capture the traitor Uchiha Itachi, and will ensure that the Fourth Mizukage returns safely."

Mei Terumi and Zabuza shook their heads and said:

"This matter has nothing to do with Konoha. Kisame is also involved in this matter. In fact, Kisame's strength is not inferior to the Fourth Mizukage. I just don't know why he joined the masked man's camp."

Tsunade also fell into deep thought, holding her chin with one hand and said: "Kisame may have been bewitched by the masked man like Itachi. They may really believe Uchiha Madara's words."

After a pause, Tsunade continued:

"By the way, Konoha was also attacked by White Zetsu this time and suffered huge losses. In addition to White Zetsu, we also found traces of Orochimaru and Rasa's activities."

When Tsunade said this, Jiraiya's face darkened a little.

He thought Orochimaru was only working with Danzo, but he didn't expect that he had a close connection with the masked man, which made it difficult for him to calm down.

Scorpion of the Red Sand also looked a little ugly. He had heard the news about the rebel ninja Rasa.

After the five Kage each explained the situation of the five major ninja villages, they turned their attention to Yahiko and Byakuya, and were very curious about what had happened to the Hidden Rain Village.

Under the gaze of everyone, Yahiko sighed softly and said, "The Hidden Rain Village was also attacked by the masked man's forces last night. As for the loss of the Hidden Rain Village, we lost two ninjas."

"Just the loss of two ninjas?"

Everyone looked at each other, secretly feeling that the Hidden Rain Village was indeed the strongest ninja village at the moment.

The Hidden Rain Village not only had a super shadow powerhouse like Byakuya who could fight against Uchiha Madara, but also had many talented people in other aspects. While all the major ninja villages suffered heavy losses, it only lost two ninjas.

However, to be in such a state after only losing two ninjas, isn't it an overreaction?

At this time, Jiraiya seemed to remember something and asked Yahiko and Byakuya, "Yahiko, Byakuya, the ninja who died in the Hidden Rain Village could be..."

Without waiting for Jiraiya to speak, Yahiko nodded and said, "Teacher Jiraiya, you are right. The Hidden Rain Village lost Nagato and the Six-Tails Jinchuriki."

"Nagato and the Vulpix Jinchuriki?!"

After hearing that the Hidden Rain Village had lost the Six-Tails Jinchuriki, the Five Kage began to understand the feelings of the Hidden Rain Village. Losing the Jinchuriki was indeed a huge loss for the Hidden Rain Village.

Although Nagato is not very famous in the ninja world, he is also a high-ranking official in the Hidden Rain Village.

After hearing this news from Yahiko, Jiraiya stood there for a few seconds, then asked:
"Yahiko, did Nagato really sacrifice himself? Isn't he the child of prophecy? And I remember that the demigod should also be in charge of the Hidden Rain Village."

Bai Ye, who was silent for a long time, said:

"The teacher has also appeared. He is seriously injured and it is unknown how long it will take for him to wake up from his coma. As for the murderer who attacked the Hidden Rain Village, I have already made some guesses."

"If nothing unexpected happens, it should be Uchiha Madara himself."

"Only Uchiha Madara can defeat the combined efforts of Nagato and Hanzo. I was careless on this matter. This kind of thing will never happen again!"

Everyone agreed with Bai Ye's guess.

However, they were also very curious, why did Uchiha Madara himself attack the Hidden Rain Village instead of the Iron Kingdom where the conference was being held?
Is there something so special about the Hidden Rain Village that its importance even surpasses the Five Kage and the Jinchūriki?

Or maybe Uchiha Madara knew that the Hidden Rain Village would take the position of leader of the coalition forces, so he attacked the Hidden Rain Village in advance so that the Hidden Rain Village would lose its will to fight.

When everyone was confused, Jiraiya stood up, looked at Bai Ye and asked: "The reason why Uchiha Madara attacked Nagato was because of the Samsara Eye, right? Apart from the Samsara Eye, I can't think of anything more important than the tailed beasts."

Bai Ye nodded gloomily, and then said: "Before hearing the news that Nagato was attacked, I don't think the masked man and Uchiha Madara can make much waves."

"The masked man is a loser who has been defeated by me many times. Uchiha Madara is just a defeated opponent of the first Hokage. The rest of the members are just losers who were expelled from the ninja village. This group of people united together is just a mob."

"But Nagato is different. His eyes contain a power that scares me."

At this time, the Third Tsuchikage and the Fourth Raikage could not help but interrupt:

"Jiraiya, Byakuya, what exactly are you discussing? Does the Rain Village ninja named Nagato possess the legendary Samsara Eye? Isn't that the eye of the Sage of Six Paths?"

Jiraiya explained:

"The Rinnegan is the eye of the Six Paths Sage, but it is also the eye of Nagato. The reason why I stayed in the Hidden Rain Village to teach Yahiko and the others was largely because of Nagato's Rinnegan."

"Otherwise I would probably just throw a few ninjutsu books at them and leave."

Yahiko said with an embarrassed look on his face: "Teacher Jiraiya, you don't have to be so blunt. I thought the relationship between us as master and apprentice would be more predestined."

"Yahiko, that was just the beginning. It was only after we spent some time together that we developed feelings for each other..."

Jiraiya coughed and then said, "In the process of teaching Nagato, I witnessed the power of the Samsara Eye, which made me decide to train Nagato to become the son of prophecy who will end the chaos in the Rain Country."

"However, judging from subsequent events, Nagato is not the only child of prophecy in the Rain Country."

When he said this, Jiraiya looked at Yahiko, Byakuya and Konan.

After hearing this, Tsunade smiled helplessly, and the other ninja village leaders also admired Jiraiya's heroism.

If you put yourself in their shoes, you will realize that they can't do the same thing as Jiraiya.

The Rinnegan is a treasure that is even rarer than the tailed beasts.

If they were to meet Nagato who possessed the Rinnegan, not only would they not attack Nagato and take away his Rinnegan, they would at least take Nagato back to their own ninja village.

With the Rinnegan, Nagato is at least a Kage-level fighter, and can greatly enhance the strength of the ninja village.

However, the luck of the Hidden Rain Village is too good. Not only does it have a pair of Rinnegan, but it also has a monster like Byakuya who can surpass Nagato.

If there hadn't been the threat from the masked man and Uchiha Madara.

When Nagato and Byakuya reach their prime, the entire ninja world will return to the era of the two heroes of the ninja world, but the ninja world will not be dominated by Konoha, but the inconspicuous Rain Village.

Recovering his thoughts, Ohnoki asked doubtfully, "Nagato's strength should not be as good as Byakuya's. Can Uchiha Madara defeat the Allied Ninja Army just by relying on the Samsara Eye?"

"It's true that the Rinnegan can't do that, but the Rinnegan can revive the legendary Ten-Tails."

Bai Ye raised his head, as if he had thought of something terrifying, and then said:
"The Ten-Tails is a collection of the nine tailed beasts. No ninja can be a match for the Ten-Tails, not even the first Hokage."

Oonoki thought for a moment, found something wrong, and asked:

"The Samsara Eye can revive the Ten-Tails. You, the Hidden Rain Village, have obtained the Samsara Eye, so why don't you try to revive the Ten-Tails?"

Bai Ye looked back at Ohnoki and said:
"The Hidden Rain Village does not have the strength to deal with the five major ninja villages, and we only have the Samsara Eye, without the crucial Outer Path Demon Statue. The Samsara Eye is the key to activate the Ten Tails, and the Outer Path Demon Statue is the carrier of the Ten Tails."

Ohnoki nodded, and then asked a fatal question: "Chief Baiye, why are you so familiar with the Rinnegan and the Ten-Tails?"

As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately gained the approval of the other ninjas, and they thought the same way.

If Bai Ye cannot explain clearly here, although they will not take action against Bai Ye, they will still be more or less suspicious of Bai Ye.

Bai Ye said calmly: "The information about the Rinnegan and the Ten-Tails is in the inheritance of the Senju and Uzumaki clans. The Uchiha clan may also have all the records, so Uchiha Itachi betrayed the Konoha Village."

After a pause, Bai Ye looked at Ohnoki and asked, "Lord Tsuchikage, do you still remember the battle that took place in the Valley of the End after Uchiha Madara and the First Hokage broke up and left?"

"of course I remember……"

Tsunade answered quickly, "I was still young that night, but I still can't forget the scene that was like a landslide. But why don't I know about the information about the Rinnegan and the Ten-Tails?"

Bai Ye shook his head and explained: "I don't know about this. It may be related to the accidental death of the Second Hokage. The Second Hokage was killed by Kinkaku and Ginkaku before he told the descendants of the Senju these things."

"I see..." Tsunade agreed with this explanation, and many of her doubts were answered.

It is impossible that Great Grandfather did not tell Second Grandfather about the information about the Rinnegan and the Outer Path Demon Statue. Although Second Grandfather was quite strict with the tribe members, he would definitely pass on such important matters.

The rebellion led by Kinkaku and Ginkaku accidentally killed my second grandfather and caused the Senju clan to lose many important inheritances, such as the research technology of Wood Release and the secrets of the past.

As a descendant of Uzumaki, Bai Ye accidentally obtained the inheritance of the Senju clan, which is why he has grown to his current level. He is only one step away from his great-grandfather and second grandfather back then.

After clearing his throat, Bai Ye continued, "The battle between the first Hokage and Uchiha Madara was not a simple battle. It also involved a battle of ideologies."

"Uchiha Madara wants to collect the tailed beasts to revive the Ten-Tails and plunge the ninja world into an eternal dream."

"The first Hokage opposed Uchiha Madara's ideas and eventually defeated him, maintaining the situation of the five major ninja villages."

"However, Uchiha Madara did not die when he was defeated. Instead, he faked his death and escaped."

"But the price of fake death is extremely heavy. Uchiha Madara has lost most of his combat power and can only realize the Infinite Moon Reading Plan by training a successor."

"The first and second generations realized this, so they left behind a legacy, allowing the ninjas who received the Senju legacy to deal with Uchiha Madara's plan."

"Over the years, I have also followed the wishes of the First and Second Hokage to deal with the masked man."

After hearing this, everyone finally understood why Bai Ye was so keen on dealing with the masked man, but new doubts arose in their minds.

Didn't they say that Uchiha Madara had lost his fighting power? Why was he still so strong?
