Chapter 290: Chapter 290
Chapter 272: Changes in Akatsuki Organization
The direction of public opinion in Konoha has changed again.
Under deliberate guidance, the villagers' attention shifted from Uzumaki Naruto to Uchiha Itachi.
As if the limelight had passed, everyone no longer missed Minato, no longer talked about Naruto, and no longer shouted for Minato and Naruto to return to Konoha.
"Have you heard? It turns out there is another hidden reason behind the annihilation of Uchiha Itachi!"
"This matter has been rumored for a long time, but later the village senior officials refuted the rumor and said it was false."
"The idea that everything Uchiha Itachi does is for the village is simply made up by someone."
On the streets, in taverns and hot springs, the name Uchiha Itachi can be heard everywhere.
"No, the top management released new information. They found new evidence that proves that everything Uchiha Itachi did was really for Konoha."
"Real or false!" Some people didn't believe it.
No one wants to believe that a beast who slaughters his entire family, even his parents, can be a good person!
"Really, I found the secret letter between the third generation and Uchiha Itachi, which proves his loyalty to Konoha."
"The Third Generation? Humph, the Third Generation is not a good person. He hid Naruto's identity and caused us to treat the son of a hero like that. It's simply abominable. In my opinion, don't blame Uchiha Itachi. If he is in cahoots with the Third Generation, it is considered a fake defection. , but killing relatives and parents is true, such people are worse than beasts."
"No, he exterminated his family and killed his parents. It was entirely induced by the Third Generation and Danzo."
"At that time, the Uchiha were having a hard time due to being ostracized by the village's senior officials and wanted to launch a coup."
"The third generation told Itachi that once the Uchiha coup occurs, the village will fall into chaos. If they fight each other, the enemy will definitely take advantage of the situation and invade, and then Konoha will be in danger of being destroyed again."
"Itachi is too kind. He can't bear to see Uchiha go to war with the village, and he can't bear to see the village being invaded by an enemy country that takes advantage of the situation and the villagers are massacred."
"So he chose to destroy the Uchiha and nip this crisis in the bud."
"Everything he did was for you, for me, and for all the villagers."
"Sacrifice your family to save everyone, sacrifice your own parents to save everyone's parents."
"Let me ask, who can do it except him?"
…
"hiss!"
"So that's it!"
"Oh my God, Uchiha Itachi is so great for being able to make such a decision and put it into practice."
Under the deliberate guidance of Konoha's top brass, Uchiha Itachi's image in the minds of the villagers took a 180-degree turn.
He was originally a villain who committed great crimes and was hated by everyone, but now he has become a hero in everyone's mind, the most upright person.
Even Orochimaru, who was the Hokage at the time, publicly stated that Uchiha Itachi was a hero who endured humiliation.
As long as Itachi is willing to return to Konoha, he will immediately abdicate and make way for others.
The news spread quickly, especially in the Kingdom of Rain, where the news spread in the most detail.
Rain Ninja Village, in a room above the tower.
Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan looked at the rain outside quietly.
"Recently, there are rumors everywhere that it is a lie that the One-Dozen Seven defected to Konoha and infiltrated the Akatsuki organization to become a spy. Konoha also welcomes him to return to Konoha and become Hokage. What do you think about this?" Xiaonan asked.
Nagato said: "Konoha should be serious this time. Without enough evidence, they would not be able to spread such news."
"It's no small matter for a rebel ninja to return to the village and become the Hokage."
Yahiko: "What if this is Konoha's conspiracy!"
"By spreading such information, Konoha is obviously trying to drive a wedge between us and make One to Seven stand on the opposite side of the Akatsuki organization."
"Konoha wants to use our hands to kill a dozen of them!"
"This kind of conspiracy and calculation is what Konoha is used to. That's how Hanzo fell into the trap set by Konoha."
Nagato frowned and said: "What should we do? If he is really a spy, letting him stay in the Akatsuki organization will be detrimental to us."
Yahiko lowered his head and thought for a while before saying: "The purpose of the Akatsuki organization is to create a peaceful ninja world."
"Nagato, no matter what your previous plan was, now that I am alive and continue to serve as the leader of the Akatsuki organization, I must guide the Akatsuki organization on the right path."
"Whether One-on-Seven really defected to Konoha or not, it actually doesn't matter to us. Even if, as rumored, he really exterminated the clan to avoid war, it means that he is the same as us. An extremely peace-loving man."
"Since we want to create peace, we can no longer act like a terrorist organization and fight and kill."
"We should convey our concept of dialogue and peace to One to Seven, so that even if he returns to Konoha and becomes Hokage, he will choose to cooperate with us."
After hearing Yahiko's words, Nagato frowned deeply.
Xiaonan on the side said nothing. She never makes decisions, but she won't object to whatever Yahiko and Nagato decide.
Even at this moment, she saw that Yahiko and Nagato seemed to have different ideas, and she had no intention of saying anything more.
No matter whose idea becomes the leader of the Akatsuki organization in the end, it doesn't matter to her.
It's all for peace anyway.
Yahiko stood up and said before leaving: "Nagato, think about it carefully. Our original intention cannot be forgotten."
After that, he walked out the door.
At this time, Nagato suddenly said: "Yahiko, you are the leader of the Akatsuki organization, and I will follow your ideas."
"I will communicate with you at One to Seven."
Yahiko smiled and said: "As expected of my good brother, with your support, the Akatsuki organization will be able to realize its good wish for peace in the ninja world."
"However, let's forget about communicating with One to Seven. He will think that we are deliberately testing him."
"Don't pay attention to him. If he leaves, just don't stop him!"
After Yahiko left, Konan said a few words and left.
Nagato was the only one left in the room.
Nagato looked at the rain outside the window, thinking about what Yahiko had just said.
In fact, Nagato has changed since Yahiko's resurrection.
In the past, he would often say "a bag of rice", but now he doesn't say it anymore. After all, his so-called bag of rice all started because of Yahiko.
Now that Yahiko is alive, he still has a bag of rice. Are you moaning for no reason?
"Yahiko, you are still too naive!"
He recalled that when the Akatsuki organization was first established, it held the concept of becoming the light of dawn and adopted peaceful dialogue as its policy to resolve conflicts and avoid war.
He even received praise and support from Hanzo, the leader of Rain Ninja Village.
It also attracted many like-minded people to join, and everyone worked together for peace.
Unfortunately, Danzo's intervention made all efforts in vain.
Hanzo actually killed Yahiko under Danzo's instigation.
From that day on, Nagato saw clearly that to achieve peace, one must rely on force.
It is extremely ridiculous to rely on words to fight for peace!
"Yahiko, when you encounter setbacks and are unable to move forward, you will find that this world is far from as friendly as you imagined!"
"Hehehe, yes! Nagato, you are right, Yahiko is wrong." Zetsu's voice suddenly sounded.
Nagato was not surprised, he had long sensed Zetsu's arrival.
"Jue, come in!"
Black and White Zetsu emerged from the wall.
Nagato asked: "What do you want from me?"
Zetsu said: "Nagato, I have made a new discovery, a major discovery that can avoid the nine tailed beasts and get the ten tails directly."
Nagato said curiously: "I remember Madara said that the nine tailed beasts were split from the ten tails. If you want to get the ten tails, you must use the heretic demon to devour the nine tailed beasts one by one."
"Now you are talking about avoiding the nine tailed beasts and getting the ten tails directly. Are there other ten tails in the ninja world?"
Chapter 273: Fengniao fights, huge disparity in strength
Jue smiled and said: "As expected of you, you guessed it before I even said it."
"Yes, I found a record about the second Ten-Tails in a scroll left by Madara."
"It's just that this Ten-Tails is sealed in a different space and guarded by a powerful organization called 'Shell'. It's very difficult to get it. Madara thought he couldn't do it, so he never took action."
"But I think no matter how difficult it is, it's still easier than snatching the tailed beast from Mizuki. This is our only hope now."
"As long as you get this Ten-Tails, you will become the Ten-Tails Jinchuuriki, and you will be strong enough to crush everything. By then, no one will dare to resist your orders, and peace will be at your fingertips."
Nagato frowned upon hearing this.
He said: "Yahiko is the leader of the Akatsuki organization. He has decided to return to the old path of the Akatsuki organization and promote peace through peaceful dialogue instead of using force."
"The second Ten-Tails you mentioned, let's put it aside for now!"
"The Akatsuki organization doesn't need this now."
…
"One dozen Nanasang, there have been rumors about you everywhere recently. Are they all true?" Kisame asked with a smile.
Itachi immediately said: "No, it's not true, it's just something that Konoha deliberately spread to try to alienate the relationship between me and the Akatsuki organization."
"I am full of hatred for Konoha. The so-called killing of the entire clan for the sake of the village and defecting to join the Akatsuki organization for the memory of peace is even more nonsense."
Itachi still refused to admit it.
Kisame smiled.
After being partners for so long, Kisame got to know Itachi better and better.
He hadn't felt it before, but ever since Itachi insisted on going to Phoenix Village to save his younger brother Sasuke, Kisame could see it and couldn't believe Itachi's words.
Without continuing to dwell on this matter, Kisame said: "One dozen Nanasang, your complexion looks much better recently!"
"It seems that running around performing tasks all year round puts a heavy burden on your body."
Itachi nodded without explaining.
In fact, the reason why his complexion seems to have improved is because he has started practicing the secret technique of Heavenly Resentment and Yu.
With his talent, practicing any ninjutsu is as simple as eating and drinking.
Although Tian Yu Yu is very difficult, for the genius Itachi, it just takes a little more time.
After Tian Yu Yu entered the profession, he was able to liquefy part of his body and swallow a small amount of life force.
Physical illness is actually a lack of vitality.
After Itachi devoured some of his life force, he quickly recovered from his illness, and now he is in better shape than ever.
However, after losing his Sharingan, he still felt a little uncomfortable.
The Byakugan does not have super dynamic vision like the Sharingan, and the Rinnegan cannot be opened casually, otherwise it will be exposed, and even colored lenses cannot block it.
"I'm going to practice!"
Itachi got up and left, coming to a quiet forest to practice Tian Yu Yu.
Jiraiya stepped out from behind a tree.
"One against seven, do you plan to return to Konoha?" Jiraiya asked directly.
Itachi said calmly: "I no longer have any relationship with Konoha."
It means, don't reply!
Jiraiya seemed to not understand what people were saying, and said: "Konoha is already in decline and cannot choose a new Hokage. If you go back and serve as the sixth Hokage, Konoha will not fall into civil strife."
Itachi was expressionless, but he was also worried.
He knew that the fifth generation Hokage Orochimaru was dead, Konoha had lost the fifth generation Hokage, and a new Hokage must be elected.
But the current situation in Konoha means that no one is qualified to be the sixth Hokage.
In the past few days, the ninja world has been discussing the fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, and Minato's son, Uzumaki Naruto.
