Three days later.

Hitani and Kakuzu had already entered the territory of the Land of Earth and were walking slowly forward in a forest.

Kakuzu followed behind Hitani and asked,”This is already under the jurisdiction of the Iwagakure Village, but where is the Four-Tails Jinchuriki? Where are you going to find the Jinchuriki?”

Hitani did not answer, but shouted softly,”Ze.” As soon as the words fell, the trunk of a big tree next to Hitani slowly moved, and then Zetsu stuck the upper half of his body out of the trunk and said with a smile,”The Four-Tails Jinchuriki is fifty miles east of you, in a valley called Flame Valley. He has lived there since he left the Iwagakure Village and rarely leaves.”

Hitani nodded, turned and walked east.

Just after taking two steps out, Zetsu said behind him,”In addition to the Jinchuriki, you have other enemies to deal with this time.”

“Other enemies?” Hearing this, Kakuzu asked suspiciously,”Did that Ōnoki guy discover us? He is indeed a ninja of the same generation as me, and he is very vigilant.”

After that, he asked for advice from Hitani and said,”Ōnoki is not easy to deal with, and this place is not far from Iwagakure. If we fail, we may be in trouble. So I suggest postponing the mission and looking for opportunities in secret… What do you think?”

Without waiting for Hitani to answer, Jue said,”It’s not the Tsuchikage. Although the Tsuchikage knows you are coming, he has no intention of dealing with you personally. The one who came this time is Danzo from Konoha.”

“Dan… Danzo?” Hearing this name, Kakuzu was stunned for a while, and then asked confusedly:”We came to the Land of Earth to catch the tailed beasts, what does it have to do with Konoha? Why is Danzo crazy to run all the way to Iwagakure to deal with us?”

Zetsu shook his head and analyzed on his own:”Maybe it’s because our target is the tailed beast, and Konoha also has a nine-tailed beast, so Konoha wants to get rid of us in advance before we attack Konoha, in order to ensure the safety of Konoha.”

“This is in line with Danzo’s usual style.”Hitoshi snorted and said disapprovingly:”Since he’s here, let’s send him to death. I’ve killed so many Konoha ninjas, so this one won’t hurt.”

After saying that, he turned around and strode away

“This guy Ritani is really……”Kakuzu sighed helplessly and didn’t say anything else. He immediately followed Hitani.

……

Two days later.

In the Flame Valley, there was a small wooden house built on the hillside. Outside the house, more than a dozen Root ninjas stood like bodyguards, on duty.

Inside the wooden house, Danzo sat on the tatami. Opposite him was a middle-aged man with brown hair and beard wearing a forehead protector from the Hidden Rock Village.

“Tsk, Konoha ninjas.” The middle-aged man drank and said with disdain,”It is beyond my expectation that Lord Tsuchikage would allow you Konoha ninjas to run around in the Land of Earth. He has always regarded you as his confidant enemies and even hates Konoha Village.”

Danzo said expressionlessly,”This is about the Jinchūriki of his own country. The Tsuchikage is very clear about the seriousness of this matter. I am here to protect the Jinchūriki and deal with the organization called Akatsuki, so the Tsuchikage supports all my actions in your country.””

“Come on, Danzo.”The middle-aged man snorted,”I know exactly who you are. A profit-seeking person like you would also care about the safety of other countries’ Jinchūriki? You are worried that this organization will attack your Konoha’s tailed beasts in the future, so you should eliminate them in the Land of Earth in advance.”

Danzo did not speak, but the expression on his face was already a tacit agreement.

The middle-aged man continued to hum,”What Akatsuki organization is just a group of rebel ninjas gathered together. If they really come to attack me, I can easily repel them. I am a ninja from the Hidden Rock Village, and it is not your turn to get support from Konoha’s ninjas, so go back, you are not needed here.”

Danzo sat there without moving, and said calmly,”I will not leave before clearing out the members of the Akatsuki organization. Please understand that I am also thinking about your country.”

Bang!

The middle-aged man slapped the table and stood up, angrily cursing,”I said you are not needed here! I don’t like to have any dealings with your Konoha ninjas. If you don’t listen to my advice, don’t blame me for being rude to you! You, Konoha, killed many of my companions in the previous Ninja Wars, and I haven’t taken revenge yet!”

Danzo still didn’t move. He looked at the middle-aged man calmly. There was no fluctuation in his exposed left eye. He was not afraid of the middle-aged man’s intimidation at all.

The middle-aged man was angered by Danzo’s calm attitude. He reached into the ninja tool bag on his waist and said through gritted teeth:”This is my last warning. Leave immediately.——”

“Lord Danzo.” Before he finished speaking, a masked Root ninja pushed the door open and entered. When the Root ninja saw the middle-aged man who was about to take action, he was stunned for a moment, then asked vigilantly:”Lord Danzo, do you need help?”

“No need.” Danzo said calmly:”What happened?” The

Root Ninja nodded and reported:”We found members of the Akatsuki organization. There are two of them. One of them is the former rebel ninja of Konoha Anbu, Hitani. They are heading this way. The distance is less than 20 kilometers. Should we act now?”
