I sell sweets in Konoha

Facing Pain's picture, the way I would just give up if you don't participate is still reasonable, Obito gritted his teeth.

There is an urge to turn against him. In the past, even if the negotiation was not appropriate, Payne would not openly confront him like this.And according to the original agreement and plan, he would find an opportunity to join Akatsuki after the tailed beast collection operation officially started, and start the official operation.

And before that, he would never show up on his own initiative.

Now I didn't expect that this situation would happen. Not only did Payne violate the original agreement, but now he was forced to act together.

"Does that mean I have to come out?" Obito crossed his legs. He didn't get angry or refute anything.He felt as if he had guessed the meaning of Payne's behavior. Payne didn't pay much attention to whether this mission could be realized, but what he really paid attention to was himself.

He brought Cardo, he took the mission, and now the situation is that he seems to be more active in targeting the two girls from the Uchiha clan.

Obito knew very well that if he couldn't give Payne a more reasonable explanation, it would be very difficult for the next cooperation to proceed even if it could be carried out.

What is the reasonable explanation?

"Writing round eyes."

Obito threw out the explanation he had prepared and thought was very reasonable.

"Oh?" Payne finally seemed to have regained a little interest.

Sharingan, this is also a very important part of the plan.

"Not enough?" Payne asked.

On the night when the Uchiha clan was exterminated, this Uchiha Madara collected a lot of Sharingan.

"Having more Sharingan does not mean that every Sharingan is useful." Obito said: "Most of the Sharingan can only be used as a backup. What is needed to realize the plan is not ordinary ones, but better ones that can Open the Sharingan to a higher level."

"Is there a higher level?" Payne finally heard something he wanted to hear.

"Of course there is." Obito said: "Theoretically, there are higher-level ones above the Mangekyō Sharingan. It is difficult for ordinary Sharingan to open to this level."

"What about you?" Payne asked again: "As the former legendary Uchiha Madara, have you reached this level?"

"To be honest." Obito hesitated a little but still made up his mind and said: "No, it's very difficult to open it to that level. The conditions are very harsh. The Sharingan collected so far is very good. It’s hard to find one that meets these conditions.”

"Is theirs okay?" Payne asked.

"Theoretically, it should be possible." Obito explained: "According to the inscriptions of the Uchiha clan, the founder of the Uchiha clan and the founder of the Senju clan were biological brothers, and their blood lineages also inherited different inheritance from their fathers. strength."

"So theoretically speaking, their bloodline is closer to the original ancestor, as the product of the fusion of the two major bloodlines of the Uchiha clan and the Senju clan."

"Their Sharingan naturally has more opportunities to open to a higher level than ordinary Sharingan."

"If we can bring them back, it will be even more powerful for our plan." Obito encouraged again: "Even if we can only bring their eyes and cells back, it will be a great boost to our plan. "

"So are you really ready to give up?" Obito asked with encouragement.

Collect Sharingan...

To plan...

Payne did not directly say yes or no, nor did he take back his previous order. He looked at Payne, thought for a while and then asked the question again: "What about this time? Madara, you Are you planning to stand in front of the stage or behind the scenes?”

'Why is this still a problem? 'Obito was a little annoyed. After saying so much, wouldn't it be of no use at all?

"What if I insist on being behind the scenes?" Obito asked coldly.

"Then there is nothing to talk about." Pain stood up and said: "Xiao doesn't want to go head-to-head with them for their Sharingan yet. For the pair of eyes you want, the organization will have to pay huge casualties, and It’s very likely that you’ll lose everything.”

"This is not in line with the organization's plans, so if you still decide to stay behind the scenes on this issue."

"Then there's nothing to talk about."

The attitude was firm and forced Obito to make some decisions.

'This guy..'

Even if the reason is reasonable, it seems that Payne has to force himself to take action this time.

"Given that the enemy's strength this time is unusual, if only we were dispatched."

"The Akatsuki organization will not take any action."

Chapter 196 They are coming

Itachi is here again.

It was still in the country of Waves, where he and Junko met for the first time.

"How's it going? Have you brought the latest information?" Junko sat on a tree branch and asked Itachi who was standing under the tree. "We waited until the flowers all withered. Is Akatsuki's mobility so slow? It's been so long. Take action when you see it.”

"It feels like you're really looking forward to them coming." Itachi asked in confusion.

In the eyes of others, being targeted by an organization like Akatsuki would be terrifying to death.Come later if you can, but Junko doesn't feel that way at all. She seems to be looking forward to Akatsuki's arrival even more.

"Never." Junko shook her head and said: "It can be said that the question you asked is quite unrealistic. The combined strength of Tomoko and I is enough to pose a threat to you Xiao. If we are really that easy to deal with, you will You and Kisame can kill us, if we were not a threat to you Akatsuki, then Akatsuki would have been here long ago."

"I haven't seen your Akatsuki actions for such a long time. I can only say that we are not only a threat, but also not a small one."

Itachi didn't answer, so it can be said that Junko's analysis was still correct.

"You are right." Itachi said: "Now the organization believes that you are a considerable threat, and there may be very serious differences among the decision-makers. The other rebel ninja who are gathering have also begun to stand by, and it seems that their determination has begun to waver. "

"Oh..."

As expected, Junko didn't have any special opinions.It was completely expected that there had been no movement for so long.

"Don't you want to know about other traitorous ninjas?" Itachi asked when he saw Junko being so unconcerned.

"I'm not interested in the information I already know at all." Junko shrugged indifferently and said: "There are just a few people around. If you say that Orochimaru wants to have a hand in this matter, then this information is of no use to me. It’s still of some use.”

"If it's just their personal information, it's completely useless!"

Because she might cooperate with Orochimaru in the future, Junko was actually eager to know Orochimaru's attitude towards them.If you are still greedy for their bodies, then forget about this idea of ​​cooperation.

"Orochimaru?" Itachi didn't know why Junko was interested in Orochimaru, but since he asked, he might as well answer it.

"He has not taken any action. Now he mainly focuses on his experience in the Sound Ninja Village he created."

"Oh..." Junko responded.

If you look at it from this aspect alone, Orochimaru should be okay, barely the type that can be cooperated with.

"What's going on over there, Sasuke?"

Itachi's information was probably finished, and he finally asked what he wanted to know most.

"Barely." Junko said, "Judging from the current situation, it's not bad."

"It's okay?" Itachi seemed to be not very satisfied with Junko's answer: "Is it just okay?"

"Otherwise, what do you think?" Junko asked, "Sasuke's problem is still in his mentality. Although it has improved now, it is still not very stable. It can only be said that the situation is a little better than before, but it is still not ideal. .”

Judging from the hands-free tree climbing practice these days, Sasuke's mentality has indeed improved.

But it's just an improvement.

As the saying goes, a person's nature can be changed easily, and Sasuke's current mentality is what Junko said is just okay.Sasuke was trying hard to calm down and practice, trying to approach his practice with a non-rushed attitude.But meditation is also a kind of practice.

It doesn’t mean that if you want to calm down, you can calm down and practice just by brushing it.

Is it true that there will be some emotional explosion and anxiety, especially when seeing Naruto progressing faster than him, it is easier to have an explosive mentality.

"Oh..." Itachi nodded and said, "I know, I will..."

"What are you going to do?" Junko felt a little bad and said, "You don't want to go up and beat him up, do you?"

Junko knew how Itachi stimulated Sasuke, which was to give him a beating first, and then use Tsukuyomi to make Sasuke relive what happened on the night of the genocide.

"If you decide to do it this way." Junko said, "Then I won't teach Sasuke."

When Itachi saw Junko say this, he finally raised his head and looked at Junko sitting on the tree. After looking at Junko for a long time, he finally asked: "Why?"

"You think you are motivating." Junko said quite incomprehensibly to Itachi's behavior: "Brother, my lovely big brother! You can really make people cry to death. If I didn't know that you are He loves his brother."

"Otherwise, from an outsider's perspective, you two would definitely have a bit of a grudge."

"Hate." Itachi said, very sure of what he was doing: "This is a way to protect him."

"If you really check it like this," Junko said, "then I have to talk it over with you."

"Although I don't like Sasuke's mentality, since you entrusted me to help you teach him, then he can be regarded as my half disciple. I want to tell you that Sasuke can become like this and have such a mentality with you. This theory of hate protection is inseparable.”

"I know what you want to protect." Junko said: "You feel that you bear all the sins. The more Sasuke hates himself, the greater his chance of staying in Konoha. The more he hates himself, the safer he will be in Konoha. "

"But in fact, why do you want to accuse someone?"

"For Konoha, Sasuke's safety has never depended on who Sasuke is cruel to or who Sasuke loves." Junko explained to Itachi: "Sasuke loves Konoha, hates Konoha, and loves you. I still hate you, it doesn’t matter at all.”

"In one sentence, if Konoha really wants to expel or kill Sasuke, then it is 'I want to kill you, what does it have to do with you?'"

"It doesn't make sense!"

'What does it have to do with killing you? ’ Itachi repeatedly mourned Junko’s words. It was very simple yet seemed very profound, very unreasonable yet seemed very realistic.

"Itachi, it's like the Uchiha clan was wiped out." Junko said, "Is it necessary to kill everyone? Is Sasuke the only one left to be killed? Are you sure that all the Uchiha clan members are traitors? Are they all people who want to rebel?"

"You can feel it yourself, right? It's not actually the same thing, right? In fact, there are many people who don't want to rebel and want to eliminate the distrust between the village and Uchiha."

"Do you want to be a bridge of friendship between the Uchiha clan and the village?"

Itachi didn't answer or speak.

"So~" Junko said: "This is the standard 'what does it have to do with destroying you'?! Was the night when the Uchiha clan was exterminated because they wanted to rebel? No, this night will happen regardless of whether the Uchiha clan rebels or not. Because The Uchiha clan occupies the biggest cake!"

"The biggest, this may be a bit excessive, but it is certainly not small. The Konoha Guard has become exclusive to the Uchiha clan. Others, whether they are ordinary civilian ninjas or the ninja clan, cannot get close to the Konoha Guard. , water can’t be poured in.”

"How can others not be jealous? How can they not be jealous? Jealousy and jealousy will be directed at you, the Uchiha clan."

Itachi was a little unable to think. All he had been thinking about and knowing was that the Uchiha clan was going to rebel and have a coup. For the safety and future of Konoha, he had to make a choice between the Uchiha clan and Konoha.However, Junko now told him that this had nothing to do with the Uchiha clan's thoughts.

This is Konoha's deliberate plan to target the Uchiha clan.

Itachi felt that his worldview was beginning to collapse.

"This is something settled by the first generation." Itachi began to argue: "It is something that all families recognize..."

"Everything in the world is for profit, and everything in the world is for profit." Junko shook his head and said: "Why did those families agree in the first place? Because they couldn't defeat the first Hokage! Why did those families agree in the first place? Because Konoha was led by Uchiha It was established jointly by the Thousand Hands Clan and the Clan."

"What right do you have to be picky about the host's arrangements if you are just here to beg for food?"

"But is the Konoha of the past the Konoha of the past?" Junko asked: "It has long been gone. The first generation is no longer there, and the second generation is no more. In their eyes, the Uchiha clan has long been a lie. The achievements of our ancestors are universally praised by the second-generation ancestors who are just living on dry food. And they also made great contributions to Konoha during several great ninja wars."

"Why can't we get a share of the pie from these second-generation ancestors?"

"Don't refute anything." Junko said: "The Uchiha clan occupies an entire department. This is the original sin. Others will not listen to you."

"For the same reason, if Konoha wants to do anything to your brother, it won't care about Sasuke's feelings."

"No matter how hard you beat your brother, it won't help." Junko spread his hands and said: "Your brother Sasuke is just a card used by Konoha to manipulate you, as a chess piece in exchange. If it loses its value, it will be ignored. Give it up without hesitation and don’t overthink too many things.”

"There's no use beating him."

"And Sasuke is too young." Junko said, "He is still a child, his mind is immature and he won't think about so many things."

"What you did will only push him to another abyss."

It can be said that Sasuke's mentality of breaking out at every turn has a huge relationship with his brother's behavior.

Itachi argued without a doubt.

He thought silently for a while and said, "How to do it?"

He no longer wants to worry about the Uchiha clan's affairs. Whether this is really a conspiracy or the Uchiha clan is asking for trouble, everything is doomed and he has no power to change it.The only thing that can be changed may be Sasuke's matter now.

"This..."

Junko was actually scratching her head a little.

It's fun to talk nonsense, and it's easy to be fooled by hindsight, but when it comes to actual problems, actual analysis, and actual solutions, it's another story.

"Tell Sasuke the true image?" Itachi asked.

"This..." Junko shook her head quickly and said, "You must not. Sasuke has been tortured by you so much that he can no longer think. His mind is full of the desire for revenge. He can betray you in a minute if you toss him like this. Konoha became a rebel ninja.”

"What should we do?" Itachi asked again.

"Actually, you don't have to do anything." Junko said, "You have no way to make up for this, and you are not suitable to meet and sit down to talk about these things with the current Sasuke."

"Listen to my advice. All you can do is do nothing. Don't appear in front of Sasuke and don't beat him up."

"Don't reveal anything about the truth to him."

Now Sasuke has begun to have some thoughts of stability and improvement. Before his little head can think of the lofty ambition of revenge, all Itachi can do is actually do nothing. Doing nothing is the best.Otherwise, the current situation will be completely ruined.
