Became the mastermind behind the Akatsuki organization

Chapter 72 Hesitant Salamander Hanzo 4k
While Yahiko was mobilizing his troops, the team of messengers escorting Bai Ye was in some trouble.

Logically speaking, a dangerous wanted criminal like Bai Ye needs to be injured or disabled, or at least be restricted by sealing techniques before he can be escorted.

But the situation at that time was somewhat complicated, so these Yuyin messengers did not dare to make any requests.

If looks could kill, the Akatsuki ninjas' gazes would tear them apart. They could die for fighting against the Akatsuki, but they didn't want to be remembered by Akatsuki members and die accidentally in peacetime.

After leaving Akatsuki, the messenger team was about to restrict Bai Ye, but encountered an extremely difficult problem.

Bai Ye is not an ordinary ninja, but a senior ninja who has mastered the secret technique of paper escape.

Possessing the ability to kill a jonin in a short period of time, they would worry about their own safety if they were to have excessive contact with Byakuya.

As if guessing what everyone was thinking, Bai Ye lifted up his ninja uniform, revealing a dense array of detonating tags.

The moment they saw the detonating talismans, the messenger team immediately fell into hesitation. If they rashly touched the detonating talismans, would they explode? This was very doubtful.

Looking at the hesitant Rain Ninja, Bai Ye became interested and made a gesture of surrender: "Seniors of Ninja, I am a dangerous criminal, are you sure you don't want to tie me up?"

After hearing Bai Ye's words, the messenger team became a little upset, but they still endured it.

The village is not far from the Akatsuki base, and they can return to the village before dark. Bai Ye can be arrogant in front of them, but in front of Lord Hanzo, these little tricks will be of no use.

Seeing that the messenger team gave up controlling himself, Bai Ye asked several questions related to the previous messenger, but received no answers.

Bai Ye lost interest in this group of ninjas who knew nothing.

He still wanted to have a duel of wits and courage with this group of Rain Ninjas, but these people just kept on going, not even giving him a chance to use their "mouth persuasion".

As expected, he doesn't have a bloodline limit by mouth, and the curse seal that controls life and death is more suitable for him.

However, if this group of people do not take the initiative to cause trouble, it will be easier for him to sort out the follow-up plans. After all, although he was not the one who killed the envoy sent by Hanzo, it was still related to him.

If he had not proactively provided Danzo with the news of Hanzo's envoy's visit, Danzo would not have taken the initiative to kill him.

At this moment, he was thinking about what kind of expression he should use in front of Hanzo after arriving at the Hidden Rain Village. He should be wronged and angry at Hanzo, right?

While Bai Ye was lost in thought, Hei Zetsu quietly approached the prison van.

After seeing Bai Ye with a leisurely look on his face, Black Zetsu frowned, then performed ninjutsu and started communicating with Bai Ye through voice.

"Bai Ye, I was away for only one day, why were you arrested?"

"Master Black Zetsu, this is a long story, but I think I was framed by Danzo-senpai, so I was captured by the ninjas of the Hidden Rain Village?"

Black Zetsu's face was full of question marks, he didn't understand what was going on.

Just as he was about to ask, Bai Ye continued to explain:
"Master Black Zetsu, do you remember the letter I wrote to Senior Danzo a few days ago? In the letter, I mentioned the news that Hanzo's envoy visited the Akatsuki organization."

"According to my speculation, Senior Danzo should have sent someone to disguise himself as me and attacked Messenger Hanzo, and left evidence at the scene, pinning the crime of attacking the Messenger on me."

"In this way, Senior Danzo can stir up conflicts between the Akatsuki organization and the Hidden Rain Village, and plunge the Rain Country into chaos."

"Whether he helps Akatsuki or the Hidden Rain Village, he will gain huge benefits."

Bai Ye's analysis made a lot of sense, and Black Zetsu listened with great interest.

But the question is, as the person involved, are you too calm? Someone has framed you and wants to kill you. Is it really okay to be so calm?

As if he had guessed what Black Zetsu was thinking, Bai Ye sighed and said:
"Master Black Zetsu, although I know who framed me, I have no way to fight back. If I reveal that I was colluding with Danzo-senpai, Akatsuki will still not tolerate me."

"By then, besides the Hidden Rain Village, my former companions will also be chasing me."

Seeing Bai Ye's lost look, Black Zetsu also recalled his experiences over the past thousand years and proposed a solution: "Do you need me to take you out? It's not difficult for me to deal with this group of Rain Ninjas."

"Forget it. Even though Yahiko and the others don't seem to get along with me, they will definitely find a way to save me."

Bai Ye shook his head and continued, "Even if Senior Danzo didn't frame me, I would have killed Messenger Hanzo. The land of the Rain Country is not enough to support two ninja organizations. Only one of the Akatsuki Organization and the Hidden Rain Village can exist."

Hearing this, Hei Zetsu was stunned, and his gaze towards Bai Ye became subtle.

It turns out that you are not innocent, but what you wanted to do was taken over by Danzo. Thinking about Byakuya's previous methods, Black Zetsu felt that he didn't need to worry about Byakuya anymore.

This guy, like himself, has the ability to manipulate people's minds behind the scenes, and most importantly, ambition.

After confirming that his chess piece would be safe, Black Zetsu planned to leave. Before leaving, he said to Bai Ye: "If there is anything, let me know. Don't forget our plan to rule the world."

Bai Ye nodded, and then said: "There are indeed some things that require the help of Lord Black Zetsu. I want to gain control of Afu so that I can stay in touch with my subordinates."

Black Zetsu did not reject Bai Ye, and used the floating technique to find Afu, letting him possess the prison car.

After completing all this, Black Zetsu escaped into the underground and headed towards the Fire Nation.

Byakuya was just a chess piece he casually arranged. The really important chess pieces were Uchiha Madara and Obito. Only by controlling Madara's descendants could the Moon Eye Project become safe and reliable.

After Black Zetsu's chakra disappeared, Bai Ye felt relieved.

Although he didn't know why Black Zetsu was in such a hurry, he still felt uncomfortable being stared at by such an old bastard.

After all, judging from the plot, Black Zetsu's method of controlling Six Paths Madara is too evil, and he doesn't know how to guard against it. Although such a method cannot be without cost, what if it is used against him?
After clearing his mind of distracting thoughts, Bai Ye began to give orders to Afu, asking him to take his paper clone back to the base.

After I get caught, the Anbu under my command will definitely not behave themselves, so I have to intimidate them.

His trip to the Hidden Rain Village was both a test for Yahiko and his subordinates who were spies.

If they are not honest, they will lose their value.

……

A few hours later, Bai Ye and the messenger team arrived at the Hidden Rain Village safely.

Looking at this steampunk-style ninja village, Bai Ye narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze focused on the high tower in the central area of ​​the Hidden Rain Village.

In the original plot, Nagato and Konan, who have transformed into gods and angels, often stand on it and look down at the Hidden Rain Village below, turning the Hidden Rain Village into a peaceful place isolated from the world.

Unfortunately, after the Fourth Ninja World War, the Hidden Rain Village fell into chaos again and became a bad land because there was no strong person stationed there.

Seeing Bai Ye's face change, the members of the envoy team secretly said that he was a country bumpkin. No matter how powerful the ninjas from the countryside were, they were shocked by the magnificence of the Hidden Rain Village. This was a miracle born under the rule of Hanzo.

After passing through the steel gate, the prison van carrying Bai Ye drove on the main road.

Due to the year-round rain, the air was filled with a musty smell, and the pedestrians on the street were pale and thin, even worse than the villagers under the rule of the Akatsuki organization.

At this time, the member of the envoy team pointed to the wide street and said to Bai Ye:

"Look, this is the Hidden Rain Village. If you hadn't attacked Lord Kamada, you could have lived here with the Akatsuki organization, but now all that awaits you is the judgment of Lord Hanzo."

Bai Ye didn't bother to pay attention to the members of the envoy team, and silently recorded the terrain of the Hidden Rain Village in his mind.

It won't be long before he and the Akatsuki organization will move into the Hidden Rain Village, so it would be good to familiarize themselves with the place in advance.

Looking at the unmoved Bai Ye, the members of the messenger team snorted coldly and decided not to make trouble for themselves anymore. They took Bai Ye and rushed towards the Yuyin Building.

After arriving at the Hidden Rain Building, Bai Ye got off the prison van and met Hanzo of the Salamander under the escort of the Rain Ninja.

Salamander Hanzo is a skinny old man wearing a gas mask. Although he is old, his thin face and determined eyes still reveal the charm of his prime.

The existence of gas masks is not to worry about others poisoning you, but to prevent others from being poisoned.

Because of the poison sacs sewn into his body, the air exhaled by Hanzo Salamander also carries toxins, which can easily harm his teammates.

While Bai Ye was looking at the Salamander Hanzo, Hanzo was also looking at Bai Ye.

Although he had known that Bai Ye was not very old, Hanzo was still a little surprised when he actually saw that it was the young Bai Ye.

I'm surprised that Bai Ye, at this age, has the ability to kill a jonin.

If he is carefully trained, it will not be difficult for him to become an elite among the jonin, or even his right-hand man, and the Hidden Rain Village will not have to worry about the issue of succession.

This made Hanzo feel a desire to admire talent, but he eventually gave up the idea.

The person Bai Ye killed was not someone else but his right-hand man, the senior ninja he sent out, who was not only a messenger but also a junior of the same family.

Thinking of this, Hanzo sighed in his heart and said to Bai Ye: "You must be Bai Ye. When you killed my jonin the night before yesterday, did you think of the current scene?"

"The cooperation between me and Akatsuki is an inevitable trend. Why do you want to stop it?"

Bai Ye glanced at Hanzo and showed an angry expression: "I didn't kill your jonin. If it was really me who did it, I wouldn't leave any evidence."

"Maybe, but you are the biggest suspect right now!"

After a pause, Hanzo continued, "When I sent people to the Akatsuki organization to capture you, I carefully read the information related to you."

"You are an orphan who grew up in the Rain Country. You joined the Akatsuki organization in the past two years. Unlike other Akatsuki members, you carry out your missions cleanly and efficiently, and you are well-known among the people of the Rain Country."

"However, while reading the files, I found some information about the Kusagakure Village."

"In March of this year, the Kusagakure Village was attacked by an unknown attacker. The attackers seemed to have taken away prisoners from the Kusagakure Village. In addition, the Kusagakure Building in the Kusagakure Village was attacked by a mysterious person. The mysterious person was good at using the Explosive Talisman Technique and also robbed a large number of ninjutsu."

"If my guess is correct, the mysterious person should be you."

"With the precedent of attacking the Kusagakure Building, your act of killing my jonin becomes reasonable. You do have the courage to do so."

After Hanzo revealed the attack on the Kusagakure Village, Bai Ye's eyes widened, a look of panic appeared on his face, and his body couldn't help but tremble, as if all his secrets had been seen through.

But in fact, Bai Ye was only slightly surprised that Hanzo had guessed that he had attacked the Kusagakure Village.

However, no matter how bad Hanzo performed in the later period, he still had this investigative ability, otherwise he would not have been able to develop the Hidden Rain Village to the level second only to the five major ninja villages.

As for the attack on Kusagakure Village, the packaging of Kusagakure Ninjutsu and the rescue of Karin.

That was a different time now. Except for the big prison where the Box of Paradise was stored, all the Kusagakure Ninjas in other places in the Kusagakure Village were weaklings. Even if they were gathered together, they were not enough for Nagato to kill.

Even if Hanzo told the news to the Hidden Grass Village, what would happen?

Seeing Bai Ye's trembling appearance, Hanzo secretly thought that he still had some deterrent power. However, at this moment, Bai Ye restrained his frightened expression and said in a somewhat bad way:

"Since Hanzo-sama believes that I killed the messenger, I cannot defend myself."

"After all, I am just an ordinary ninja in the Akatsuki organization. Whatever Hanzo-sama says is true. Whether it's attacking the Kusagakure Building or killing the messenger, I did it all."

"I know that Lord Hanzo does not want to see the rise of the Rain Country and is worried that we will threaten your position."

Faced with Bai Ye's rather sarcastic remarks, Hanzo didn't know what to say for a moment.

It really seemed like he was bullying the weak by slandering a young man for attacking the Kusagakure Building and killing his own senior ninja.

After all, a ninja who can accomplish the above actions at least has the strength of a jonin, and Kakashi, a talented young man who is quite famous in the ninja world, does not have such strength now.

Moreover, Bai Ye is nominally a ninja of the Hidden Rain Village and is his subordinate.

If the news that he suppressed and killed his genius spread to the outside world, who knows what kind of sarcastic remarks the five major ninja villages would make.

Moreover, what does it mean that he doesn't want the Rain Country to rise?

It has been his wish for decades to make the Rain Country one of the five major ninja villages that influence the ninja world. However, due to the awkward position of the Rain Country, this wish has never been realized.

When he heard this, Salamander Hanzo really wanted to kill someone.

But Salamander Hanzo was a little hesitant.

Bai Ye is a talented young man and will definitely become a talented ninja of the Rain Country in the future.

He felt reluctant to kill him, but if he didn't kill him, it would damage his reputation as a demigod and would not satisfy these old subordinates.

For a moment, even the famous Salamander Hanzo didn't know how to deal with Bai Ye.

After thinking for a moment, Hanzo gave an order to the ninjas around him: "Detain the criminal Bai Ye in the dungeon. I will go there to interrogate him in person later."
