Chapter 216 Kisame Hoshigaki: I only left once, how come the village has changed? Itachi Uchiha'

Lin Mo:

Seeing Tian Tian's wide eyes, Lin Mo nodded gently: "I understand."

day by day:"?????

"Come on, tell me what your book says."

The next second, Lin Mo said with great interest, "Do you have any books? Let me see them."

"No, no."

Hearing Lin Mo's words, Tian Tian scratched his head: "But I remember it very clearly, I've memorized it all, I can tell you."

He said this to Lin Mo every day.

the other side.

Outside the jar shop, Nagato and Konan walked side by side on the slippery streets of Amegakure.

The raindrops pattered against their clothes, making a soft "patter" sound, as if playing the prelude to the storm that was about to brew.

Rainwater streamed down their robes, their footsteps light and firm.

"That brat from the Uchiha clan in Konoha dares to impersonate Uchiha Madara."

Nagato's voice was deep and cold, as if a long-suppressed rage was slowly burning.

The Rinnegan in his eyes flickered faintly, and the rain swirled before his eyes, yet it could not erode the resolve in his heart.

Konan glanced at Nagato beside her, her eyes also filled with complex emotions.

She knew perfectly well where Nagato's anger came from.

Not only Nagato's parents were killed by Konoha ninjas.

Over the years, they have been deceived by the guy who calls himself Uchiha Madara, and even paid a lot for his so-called plan.

However, the revelation of the truth was like a heavy hammer blow, striking at the deepest beliefs and resolve in their hearts.

"According to the information I have, Obito should not have returned yet."

Xiao Nan said softly, a thin curtain of rain forming in front of her: "However, judging from his usual habits, he should be here soon. We need to be prepared before he returns."

Upon hearing this, Nagato paused slightly, gazing intently into the distance, as if she could see the masked man's figure through the rain.

Even the core members of the Akatsuki organization could not fully grasp his whereabouts.

But now that the truth has been revealed, he can no longer allow this guy to continue to control the situation.

"It's time."

Nagato muttered to himself, his fists clenched so tightly his knuckles turned slightly white: "We don't have time to wait, nor do we need to trust him anymore."

"Once Obito returns, we'll take action immediately. We need to start preparations now and bring in the other members of Akatsuki."

Hearing Nagato's words, Konan nodded silently.

She also understood the significance of this moment.

If they had previously acted in the name of the powerful figure "Uchiha Madara".

Now that they know the truth, they no longer need to contribute to Obito's plans.

No amount of conspiracy or betrayal could conceal the anger and determination in his heart at this moment.

The thought that they had been tricked by a mere Uchiha brat made Konan's eyelids twitch violently. "I'll contact the others as soon as possible."

Xiao Nan said softly, "It's not like no one was interested in this guy before. We can send them a message without worrying about it being leaked."

"Um.

Hearing this, Nagato narrowed his eyes, looked up at the rain-shrouded sky, and felt the raindrops hitting his face, but they could not wash away the anger in his heart.

"Let's make a plan. We need to make sure it's a one-hit kill and not give Obito any chance to escape."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Nan nodded, her gaze solemn and focused.

She knew this would be a momentous operation.

Once we take action, it's not just about dealing with Obito; we also need to consider how to counter the Uchiha's abilities and Obito's unpredictable tactics.

The two continued on their way, talking as the rain pattered against their cloaks, the sound low and heavy.

"Um?"

Just as Konan and Nagato were walking toward the Akatsuki headquarters, Konan suddenly stopped and her expression changed slightly.

Noticing her unusual behavior, Nagato slowly turned her head: "What's wrong?"

Xiao Nan raised her head, her gaze slightly solemn, and slowly said, "The Nan Dou Group has returned."

Upon hearing this, Nagato's eyes narrowed slightly, and his pale purple Rinnegan flashed with a cold light in the rain.

Kisame Hoshigaki was a member of the Akatsuki organization and partnered with Itachi Uchiha to carry out a series of missions.

But the timing of his return now is clearly not a coincidence.

Obito's return could happen at any time, and Kisame's appearance forces Nagato to reassess every step he takes next.

Coming back today is too early.

This guy seems to have some connection with Obito Uchiha.

Nagato's mind flashed back to the scene of Kisame Hoshigaki and Obito Uchiha walking together when the Akatsuki were gathering.

"You can handle this, Xiao Nan."

"Randomly," Nagato said in a deep voice, his tone revealing an unquestionable determination.

He knew that Xiao Nan was capable of handling the situation.

He didn't want Kisame to be aware of the plan before it was carried out.

"Understood, I will arrange it."

Xiao Nan nodded, then regained her usual calm and composure.

With a gentle flick of his sleeve, he turned and walked down another path.

at the same time.

The entrance to Amegakure.

Kisame Hoshigaki and Itachi Uchiha, having just completed their mission, walked slowly into the village, draped in black robes with red clouds, braving the torrential rain.

As a ninja who had seen many changes in the world, Kisame was always calm.

But when he looked up at the sky above Amegakure, a rare look of surprise appeared on his face.

In his line of sight, huge, shimmering vines climbed up and covered the sky above Amegakure.

These vines, like giant dragons, meandered straight into the sky, refracting a dazzling array of colors in the rain.

This unusual scene made Kisame Hoshigaki's eyes widen, revealing an expression of disbelief.

"What... what's going on?"

Kisame murmured to himself, his fingers tapping lightly on the massive Samehada scabbard, his heart filled with doubt and unease.

Even within the Akatsuki organization, he had never seen such a bizarre sight.

Standing beside him, Uchiha remained calm and composed, as if the sudden change had little impact on him.

The red Sharingan darted around, scanning the surroundings, and frowned, saying, "It's just vines."

It might be some kind of ninjutsu.

"Ninjutsu?"

Upon hearing Itachi's words, Kisame's voice held a hint of surprise.

He then narrowed his eyes, watching the vines sway in the rain, a strange look on his face: "Is there anyone in the Akatsuki who can do this?"

It seems that no one in the organization possesses Wood Release.

And this rattan didn't look like something the guy I knew would make.

Uchiha did not respond to Kisame Hoshigaki's words.

He simply looked up and continued to observe, his eyes deep and calm, as if pondering some profound secret.

Kisame shook his head slightly, a smile playing on his lips: "Anyway, this village has become interesting." The two continued into Amegakure, while Kisame's eerie premonition grew stronger.

"That's strange, is it just my imagination?"

Kisame scratched his head in annoyance: "Never mind, I'll find out when I see Miss Haku."

However, the village has changed since I last returned.

With these thoughts in mind, Kisame Hoshigaki and Itachi Uchiha headed toward the Akatsuki's base.

Along the way, Kisame's gaze would occasionally sweep across the sky. The dense vines covering the village made him somewhat suspicious, but he still maintained a calm smile on the surface.

He followed Itachi Uchiha steadily forward, as if this strange scene was just a trivial interlude.

Kisame Hoshigaki and Itachi Uchiha moved nimbly and silently through the slippery streets and dark alleys of Amegakure.

Their black robes with red clouds contrasted sharply with the surrounding gray buildings, making them seem like the only living things in this rainy village.

When the two arrived at the Akatsuki's base, Kisame, with his usual mocking smile, went in first.

Inside the hall, Xiao Nan was standing in front of a huge table, bending over to organize some scrolls, his expression cold and focused.

Kisame saw her from afar, a slight smile playing on his lips, and then strode forward.

"Miss Bai, the mission is complete."

Kisame spoke casually, but his gaze flickered warily towards the window as he asked, "By the way, what's with all those vines hanging over the village?"

Upon hearing this, Konan looked up at Kisame, her eyes calm and composed, and said indifferently, "That was just a ninjutsu experiment, don't worry."

Her tone was calm and even, as if these vines were nothing more than a common phenomenon.

However, Kisame still frowned, clearly not quite believing this simple explanation.

Based on his combat experience, he knew that it was no ordinary ninjutsu.

Especially with such a massive vine stretching across the entire sky, how could it possibly be just an "experiment"?

"A ninjutsu experiment, huh?"

The next second, Kisame grinned, revealing his signature sharp teeth, trying to hide his doubts: "This is really big of a deal. I thought something terrible had happened to the village."

Xiao Nan didn't explain further, but nodded slightly, indicating that he could leave.

She knew that Kisame, as a ninja, was powerful but not good at in-depth analysis, so getting rid of him wouldn't be difficult.

Kisame glanced at her, said nothing more, turned and left. Although he had doubts, he did not press her for answers.

However, Itachi Uchiha, who was standing to the side, remained silent.

His gaze remained fixed on Konan, his red Sharingan eyes flashing thoughtfully.

Itachi was clearly not entirely convinced by this explanation of "ninjutsu experiment".

In particular, he noticed the fleeting change in Xiao Nan's expression—although it was extremely subtle, he still sensed the abnormality.

Kisame Hoshigaki yawned casually, then turned around and walked alongside Itachi Uchiha.

Although he still had doubts, he wasn't going to press the matter further: "Well, whatever, I don't want to get involved. As long as nothing serious happens in the village, that's fine."

"Um.

Uchiha Itachi responded in a low voice, his eyes slightly narrowed, but his mind was racing.

He understood that things were not as simple as they seemed.

The vines outside the window may be related to some kind of plan within the Akatsuki organization.

However, he decided to hold back for the time being, as his target was an even more secretive entity.

Under Kisame's nonchalant attitude, the two left the base.

Xiao Nan watched them leave.
