The Uchiha clan, which was wiped out entirely, lacked vision.

Chapter 15 The Akatsuki Organization Doesn't Keep Useless People

"How annoying!"

Uchiha An frowned, quickly forming hand seals with one hand. His Susanoo once again spewed out a burst of flames, burning the poisonous dragon to ashes, but new shadows kept being generated.

While he was dealing with Nara Shikaku, Akimichi Choza pounced on him, his huge hand locking Susanoo's arm like an iron clamp, his muscles bulging to the extreme, and he roared like thunder.

"Let's see how you form the hand seals this time!"

The new Shadow Whip Poison Dragon instantly reformed, leaping out of the ground and writhing in the air like a living giant python, pouncing on him once more, even larger than before.

"Heh...who said Susanoo only has two arms?"

Uchiha An sneered, and with a thought, a third arm suddenly extended from under the right side of Susanoo. Dark red chakra quickly condensed and took shape, and the fingers nimbly followed his rapid hand seals.

"Fire Release: Great Dragon Fire Technique!"

In an instant, blazing dragon-shaped flames roared out of Susanoo's mouth, tracing a graceful arc in the air as they hurtled toward their target with an aura of annihilation.

This time, his ninjutsu no longer only attacked the Shadow Whip Poison Dragon. After destroying the Shadow Whip, he turned his head and the rolling torrent of flames sprayed towards Akimichi Choza, who was fighting against Susanoo.

Before the flames even arrived, the high temperature had already distorted the surrounding air, causing the rain to vaporize instantly.

Akimichi Choza hurriedly released Susanoo's arm and tried to retreat, but Susanoo's counter-grab was even faster.

The giant, powerful hand gripped his wrist tightly, preventing him from escaping.

This time, it was him who got caught!

However, he was only a fraction of a second too late, and the towering flames sprayed right at Akimichi Choza's body.

Flames coiled around his massive body as if they were alive, instantly engulfing him and turning him into a blazing torch.

In its hyper-expanded state, the body became the perfect fuel, and the fire quickly spread throughout its body, crackling and popping. A pungent, acrid smell of burning protein filled the air, making people want to vomit.

"Oops!"

Nara Shikaku was startled, and a new Shadow Whip swiftly shot out from beneath his feet, connecting with Akimichi Choza's feet.

"Shadow Slap Technique!"

Akimichi Choza habitually tucked his head and limbs inward, turning his body into a giant ball of flesh. He was pulled by the Shadow Whip and swung around, crashing into Uchiha An.

"Human Bomber. Human Cannonball!"

The rapidly spinning ball of flesh, engulfed in flames, was naturally far more powerful. Moreover, as it violently rubbed against the ground, the flames on Akimichi Choza's body gradually died down.

Combining offense and firefighting is the best of both worlds.

"This is really troublesome!"

Uchiha An, controlling his Susanoo, swung his staff, repelling Akimichi Choza once more. He then leaped back a few steps and turned to look into the distance. There, the shadowy figures of some ninjas were beginning to appear; judging by the insignia on their headbands, they were ninjas from the Land of Rain.

He looked up at the sky and saw that the rain was still pouring down, which puzzled him.

The incessant rain carried a faint aura of chakra, clearly Nagato's "Rain Tiger Free Technique".

With this technique, Nagato can monitor every part of the Land of Rain so clearly that no one can infiltrate.

He has already treated the Akatsuki organization as his own home and will never allow outsiders to run wild on his territory.

With such a commotion here, even ordinary ninjas have rushed over. He must know about it, so why hasn't he shown up yet?

Or is he hiding in the shadows, watching?

Uchiha An's judgment was correct; Pain did indeed arrive, but he did not rashly engage in battle.

The Akatsuki organization is currently in a period of concealment and biding its time; recklessly provoking a formidable enemy like Konoha Village would not be a wise choice.

Payne and Mina are now standing side by side, secretly observing the scene.

"How could it be Itachi Uchiha?" Konan asked curiously. "Shouldn't he be in the village? Or is this Itachi Uchiha's twin brother?"

"It's fake." Pain said with a blank face, "The real Itachi is still in the village, and the Six Paths can see him."

"Zetsu had previously investigated the Uchiha clan. Itachi Uchiha only had one younger brother and no twin brothers."

"Someone must have used a transformation technique to look like him and is fighting with the people of Konoha Village here."

"You can change your appearance with the Transformation Technique, but the Sharingan of the Uchiha clan can't be created out of thin air, so Susanoo is even more impossible," Konan retorted.

"That only proves that this is another Mangekyou Sharingan Uchiha!" Pain said calmly. "If Itachi Uchiha could exterminate his clan and defect, then other Uchiha can certainly do the same."

"Even though they both have the Mangekyou Sharingan, Itachi Uchiha might not be able to kill him."

"That's true," Konan exclaimed. "The Uchiha clan truly lives up to its reputation as a prestigious clan in Konoha, producing a constant stream of geniuses!"

"First there was Madara Uchiha, then Itachi Uchiha, and now a Mangekyou Sharingan has appeared."

"Fortunately, they were caught in a vicious internal conflict and were wiped out by their own people; otherwise, they would have been an obstacle to our plan to collect the tailed beasts in the future."

"It doesn't matter," Pain said arrogantly. "No matter how many Mangekyou Sharingan they have, they're just ordinary people who are a bit stronger."

"And I am God!"

"He is the god of the new world!"

"No one can stop the will of God!"

Xiao Nan looked at Payne with pity, but didn't say anything more. She just nodded silently and asked in a low voice:

"So, should we recruit him?"

Payne was silent for a moment, then slowly shook his head and said:

"That Uchiha Madara is cunning; I wonder what kind of scheme he's plotting."

"Although I am confident that I can overpower him militarily, it would be troublesome if he were to make some underhanded moves and hinder us."

"There are already two Mangekyou Sharingan Uchiha in the organization, there's no need to add another one."

Xiao Nan shook her head and said:

"This Uchiha might not be in cahoots with Madara Uchiha and the other two."

"He disguised himself as Itachi and fought with the people of Konoha. He probably has a grudge against Itachi and is deliberately framing him."

"Perhaps he is one of the survivors who miraculously survived the massacre of the Uchiha clan by Itachi Uchiha."

"Then he has an irreconcilable blood feud with Itachi, so perhaps we can recruit him and use him to keep an eye on those two."

"I see!" Payne thought for a moment, then said, "Let's treat this as a test for him!"

"The Akatsuki organization doesn't tolerate useless people. Only if he can successfully escape from Konoha Village's pursuit will he be qualified to join us."

After hearing this, Xiao Nan stopped talking and simply stood beside Payne, silently watching the scene and paying attention to the subsequent developments.
