Became the mastermind behind the Akatsuki organization

Chapter 84 Leader Change
Three days have passed since the Akatsuki organization took over the Hidden Rain Village.

During these three days, the ninjas of the Hidden Rain Village went from being nervous at first to gradually adapting to the rules of the Akatsuki organization.

Overall, the rules of Akatsuki are not much different from those during Hanzo's time.

However, the newly appointed Yahiko is much more diligent and conscientious than the slacking Hanzo. Not only can he handle the commissions from all over the Rain Country on time, he also cares a lot about the villagers and grassroots ninjas.

Being able to do all these is enough to win the love of the villagers of the Hidden Rain Village. After all, the Hidden Rain Village during Hanzo's time was in a miserable state.

Of course, in the past few days, many Hanzo remnants have noticed Yahiko's gentleness and want to take advantage of it to cause trouble.

But they often disappear before they can take any action.

This reminded the remaining Rain Village ninjas of the horror of Byakuya. Unlike the weak Yahiko, Byakuya would really strike out with a heavy punch and strike down any ninja who disobeyed him.

Under the dual offensive of carrot and stick, the Akatsuki organization basically completed the takeover of the Hidden Rain Village.

After everything settled down, Bai Ye was called to the Yuyin Building.

Looking at Yahiko who was sitting on the leader's seat in Yugakure, and Nagato, Konan and others beside him, Bai Ye subconsciously frowned and asked:
"Yahiko, why did you call me over here? Are the remnants of Hanzo causing trouble again?"

Yahiko shook his head slightly, thinking that Bai Ye's murderous intention was too strong, but if it weren't for Bai Ye's thundering methods, Hanzo's former subordinates in the village would never have stopped.

After a moment's silence, Yahiko said, "I asked you to come here today to fulfill the agreement we made that day. Do you remember the bet between us?"

Bai Ye nodded slightly, then said: "Of course I remember, and you have already lost this bet."

Hearing this, Yahiko sighed softly, and then said: "Yes, I overestimated Hanzo's magnanimity. He actually took action against the Akatsuki organization. We obviously have no intention of ruling the Hidden Rain Village."

"I told you, you are too naive!"

"Bai Ye, you are right..."

Yahiko nodded and continued, "So, now you are the leader of Akatsuki. If you want, you can also become the leader of the Hidden Rain Village and lead us to move forward."

When Yahiko said this, Konan and Nagato were stunned for a moment, but did not say anything to stop him.

Although Bai Ye is not mature in some aspects, he is undoubtedly the biggest contributor to this battle. If it weren't for Bai Ye, it might take many years for Akatsuki to control the Rain Country.

More importantly, Yahiko realized that he was weak and unfit to be the leader of the organization.

"I will become the leader of Akatsuki..."

After a pause, Bai Ye stared at Yahiko and said seriously: "But you are still the leader of the Hidden Rain Village. I don't like dealing with nobles and officials. Compared to me, you are more like a real leader."

Bai Ye said what was in his heart.

After passing the test and possessing the judgment and courage that a leader should have, Yahiko has become a qualified leader and the only choice for the leader of the Hidden Rain Village.

It is enough for him to just serve as the leader of Akatsuki in the dark.

In just a few words, it was confirmed who would be the leader of the Akatsuki organization and who would be the leader of the Hidden Rain Village. As for Konan and Nagato, they naturally became elders of the Hidden Rain Village.

After this, Yahiko seriously asked Byakuya how to manage the Hidden Rain Village and the Land of Rain.

Unlike the previous times, Bai Ye did not make any big speeches, but directly handed a booklet to Yahiko. On it were some methods of governing a country that he had seen in a book in his previous life, which could provide a reference for Yahiko.

After all, the previous life and the ninja world are two different worlds, and many methods cannot be directly copied.

Yahiko took the booklet and flipped through a few pages at random. Then light gradually appeared in his eyes. Many of the things that were originally tangled began to flow smoothly. After completing the succession of the leader of the Akatsuki organization at the small meeting, Bai Ye planned to leave.

Now that he has become the leader of Akatsuki, he can expand his departments without restraint, so that he can get more feedback.

Before leaving, Bai Ye suddenly remembered something important and turned to look at Yahiko.

Being stared at by Bai Ye, Yahiko showed a puzzled look: "Bai Ye, is there anything else?"

Bai Ye nodded, and then asked: "By the way, is Akatsuki an organization under the Hidden Rain Village, or is the Hidden Rain Village affiliated with Akatsuki?"

Does it make any difference?

Yahiko didn't understand Bai Ye's thoughts.

Bai Ye shook his head and said, "I think the status of Akatsuki should be above that of the Hidden Rain Village. After all, our sights cannot be limited to the Land of Rain. Akatsuki's philosophy needs to be spread to the entire ninja world."

Bai Ye’s words touched Yahiko’s heart. The Akatsuki organization must not be limited to the Hidden Rain Village.

However, with Akatsuki's current strength, controlling the Hidden Rain Village is the limit. It will take several years to digest the Rain Country. It is a bit too ambitious to set their sights on the outside of the Rain Country now.

But Yahiko was not one to get hung up on details, and said, "If you wish, Akatsuki can be above the Hidden Rain Village, but Akatsuki and the Hidden Rain Village are now one and the same, there is no distinction."

"Just asking casually..."

As Bai Ye was speaking, he left Yuyin's office and heard a series of system prompts in his ears.

[The Hidden Rain Village xx joined the Akatsuki organization, and you obtained the chakra fragment]

[The Hidden Rain Village xx joined the Akatsuki organization, and you obtained the Water Style Fragment]

[The Hidden Rain Village Salamander has joined the Akatsuki organization, and you have obtained the Salamander toxin]

[The Hidden Rain Village…]

Sitting on the central tower and clicking for several minutes, Bai Ye finally received all the rewards.

The system's rewards include a ninjutsu gift pack, as well as chakra insights and fragments.

The addition of this group of Rain Ninjas did not bring Bai Ye any advanced secret techniques or bloodline limits, but it greatly improved Bai Ye's basic panel.

The system's final evaluation also changed from the entry-level to the middle level.

Bai Ye usually chooses to believe the system's evaluation of strength, but not many people believe it. When he first entered the shadow level, he could fight back and forth with Hanzo of the Salamander.

Although Hanzo didn't have a Salamander by his side, he still consumed his energy in the round-robin battle.

But he also does not have the ability to use Wood Release Ninjutsu and Yin-Yang Release on a large scale, and he has reservations on both sides. So what are the criteria for judging this beginner Kage?

This is a question worthy of doubt.

Without hesitating for too long, Bai Ye closed the system panel and walked towards the Anbu base. He still had an important thing to do.

That is to persuade Hanzo to join Akatsuki.

Although this old demigod's strength and mentality are not as good as before, he still has considerable utilization value. It would be a pity if he were directly turned into Pain Tendou.
