After a while, Nagato controlled Pain and asked, "If you do that, wouldn't Sasori, Kakuzu, and Hidan be in great trouble? Things would only get worse for us."
Black Zetsu glanced at Obito and, seeing that Obito had no intention of speaking, continued to explain, "Don't worry, I will notify them in advance. Also, Orochimaru is there."
"You know the relationship between Orochimaru and Konoha. When they meet, there will be no compromise whatsoever. Besides, I have already secretly transmitted intelligence to Kumogakure."
Hearing this, Pain immediately nodded.
"Hmph, these great ninja villages are truly hypocritical. I'm afraid the Fourth Raikage can't swallow the indignity of being captured."
"Not only was he captured, but Takemi also cut off one of his arms."
Black Zetsu spoke in a low voice at this point, "This hatred, even if Konoha and Kumogakure sign an agreement, it's useless. They will definitely send people to encircle and annihilate."
"With them and Orochimaru there, Kakuzu and the others won't have any problems. Besides, they can also take a good look at Takemi's intelligence."
Speaking of this, Black Zetsu stopped, and both Pain and Obito silently nodded.
Intelligence, that was the key!
They had lost to Takemi so many times, so they naturally didn't dare to be careless in the slightest. It was indeed necessary to use this opportunity to figure out some data on Takemi.
"Wait, Takemi cut off the Fourth Raikage's arm?"
Suddenly, Obito thought of something. He lowered his head and looked at his own arm, falling into deep thought.
"Does this guy have some kind of weird hobby?"
Obito couldn't quite figure it out, but he didn't have time to think too much now. He still had many things to deal with.
For example, he still needed to notify Kakuzu and the other two to get ready, and also confirm whether Kumogakure had started to act.
He was very busy. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novel-fire.ɴet
Time flew by, and after several days, Takemi and the others reached the border between the Land of Wind and the Land of Rivers.
Guy looked at the endless sand dunes, his face full of excitement.
"Yeah, we finally arrived."
Takemi was also extremely excited.
The Land of Wind was a desert. But upon arriving here, he immediately felt the Flying Thunder God Mark left by Minato.
Even though it was still a bit far, he believed that as long as he got a little closer, he could directly teleport there and check the condition of that Source of Ryumyaku properly.
"This is a gift from nature, it would be a shame not to take it. Besides..."
He looked up at the vast desert. The Magnet Release within him was telling him that in this desert, he could really strike gold.
"Hmm? Kakashi-sensei, someone is coming."
But just as he was excited, he suddenly saw someone approaching them in the distance.
"It should be the people from Sunagakure who are here to receive us." Kakashi thought for a moment, then spoke.
"Let's go, we'll go over there too. Let's be polite." As he spoke, they walked towards the other side.
But they had only walked a few steps when they saw an elderly person seem to freeze for a moment, then accelerate and rush towards them.
As he got closer, the anger on his face became clearly visible.
"How dare you show up in Sunagakure?"
"Prepare yourself! Konoha White Fang!"
"Hmm? No, why are there two?"
"Raikage-sama, why won't you let me go?"
Inside Kumogakure, Darui looked at the Fourth Raikage with a displeased expression.
A few days ago, their Anbu unexpectedly gathered a piece of information.
That organization called Akatsuki was suspected of operating in the Land of Wind, and Konoha had also dispatched a team towards the Land of Wind.
Moreover, after confirmation, the person acting was the Fourth Raikage's enemy.
The Fourth Raikage's defeat and severed arm were a humiliation to their entire Kumogakure.
Therefore, Kumogakure did not hesitate to send out an elite squad. Whether it was to obstruct the mission or find an opportunity to deal with the Konoha people, it was worth a try.
Darui naturally wanted to do something as well, but the Fourth Raikage wouldn't let him go.
"Why are you going to join the fun?" The Fourth Raikage glanced at Darui unhappily.
"Having C lead the team is enough. There's no point in you going. You might as well practice your Storm Release more."
Darui was still a bit unhappy, but the Fourth Raikage had already stood up and didn't give him a chance to speak further.
"Alright, go train. I'm going to see Killer Bee too."
"Also, that Takemi not only knows the Flying Thunder God Technique, but he also possesses a unique Purple Lightning."
"That jutsu is no weaker than my father's Black Lightning. If you can master it and integrate it into Storm Release, then you'll have a chance to surpass him."
"Now, even if I encounter him, I'll feel troubled!"
Hearing this, Darui didn't retort. The Black Lightning created by the Third Raikage had immense power, but it wasn't easy to master.
He had actually figured out a few things, but hadn't completely mastered it yet. Of course, this also had something to do with him being genuinely lazy.
However, now, he was somewhat interested.
"So annoying, the Konoha people are here again. It seems that person named Danzo is not ordinary."
In the Land of Wind, Hidan walked through the desert under the scorching sun, and complained a little.
"Also, how did you adapt to this broken place?"
"This time, things are a bit troublesome."
Sasori glanced at Hidan, not bothering to pay attention to him at all. He was currently thinking about Konoha's issue.
"And I didn't expect that rotten snake to be in the Land of Wind as well. How unlucky."
"Anyway, all I know is that we're probably being used as bait."
Kakuzu was also a bit displeased. He could obviously see what kind of trick this was.
"I think we should try to reconcile a bit. Even if someone guarantees our safety, fighting Takemi is no joke."
"We still don't know what other techniques or trump cards that brat has. This time, no matter what, we have to properly test something out."
Sasori gave Kakuzu a strange look.
After a long silence, he finally spoke, "We can try. I still have some people in Sunagakure that I can use. I lost quite a few puppets and can't afford to be depleted."
"I'm also only lacking a few things, but I can manage." Kakuzu briefly revealed his situation.
Meanwhile, Hidan just snorted disdainfully. "What's there to fear? Just go up and slash him! This great master is not afraid of him!"
Sasori and Kakuzu tacitly ignored Hidan. His mental state had always been problematic, and he hadn't felt Takemi's threat.
"If only I could find a strong Wind Release ninja, I could solve many problems."
Kakuzu sighed, shaking his head as he spoke. This made Sasori frown.
After hesitating for a moment, he also spoke, "I'm afraid we might have a conflict, because I also need a strong Wind Release ninja to make puppets."
"Is that so?" Kakuzu frowned.
After pondering for a moment, he suddenly asked cautiously, "When you make human puppets, do you need to keep the internal organs?"
"No, I don't. You only need the internal organs?" Sasori was startled, and also spoke with great restraint.
Kakuzu was silent for a moment before nodding. "It seems we can cooperate well."
Sasori said, "Yes, then let's have a pleasant cooperation."
