As the saying goes, "One man’s wisdom is short, three n’s wisdom is long."
Konan told Nagato about their attempt to use Shimura Danzo’s na to lure out Hanzo of the Salamander for a eting and then ambush him.
Nagato not only agreed with their plan.
He even planned to present himself.
If the eting ambush plan proposed by Uehara Naraku could succeed, it would be their most perfect revenge against Hanzo of the Salamander.
After all, back then, it was Hanzo who ambushed them under the guise of a eting.
Since this plan was extrely dangerous, Konan ordered Kaguya Kimimaro and Haku to take Hattori Heikawa to a distant outpost for a task.
Konan also didn’t want too many people to know Nagato’s secret.
"Is Lord Nagato really coming?"
Uehara Naraku glanced peculiarly at Nagato sitting in the wheelchair, with Deva Path Pain standing beside him and the other five Pains standing behind them.
This was the first ti Uehara saw Nagato.
Nagato’s red hair was sowhat dull, his cheeks deeply sunken, his lips almost colorless, and his withered body looked extraordinarily thin.
What was terrifying was that several black rods were stabbed into Nagato’s back.
These were remnants left by the Gedo Statue’s chakra and life force extraction from him, which he now uses to control the Six Paths Pain.
Konan looked at Nagato with worry, softly advising, "Nagato, you should stay in the base to recuperate..."
"Cough cough cough... no need to worry."
Nagato coughed a few tis, waved off Konan’s attempt to dissuade him, looked up at Uehara, and said, "Uehara, both your teacher and I agree with your plan. I’m just here to lend a supplentary hand."
Nagato, possibly fearing Konan’s objection, continued softly, "After all, only a few of us present are true Akatsuki mbers. I don’t want to miss this matter."
After Nagato finished speaking, he manipulated Deva Path Pain to step forward: "This ti, it will also be a battle where the gods descend upon the Land of Rain!"
Uehara Naraku: "..."
What was said at the beginning sounded fine, but why did it turn so chuunibyou later on?!
Anyone in the two-dinsional world who claims to be a god rarely has a good end... You can be high-profile in actions, but rember to stay low-key in personality!
Uehara Naraku thought about whether he should advise Nagato later to avoid him being defeated by re words in the future.
Uehara Naraku patted his forehead and gently said, "Lord Nagato, Teacher Konan, let’s discuss the plan first!"
According to the information obtained by the Human Path, Yamanaka Fuu did not reveal to the Hidden Rain Village that Shimura Danzo could not leave Konoha, leaving all the negotiation matters to Yamanaka Fuu.
Now that Yamanaka Fuu and several squads of Root Ninja have all died in battle, the channel for information has temporarily been locked down.
"We don’t have much ti."
Uehara Naraku said in a deep voice, "We have at most five days to complete this plan, maybe only three, because Shimura Danzo, not receiving news from Yamanaka Fuu, should soon send the next batch of people."
After seeing Konan and Nagato nodding, Uehara Naraku continued, "Next, we need to transform into that Konoha ninja nad Yamanaka Fuu to continue negotiating with Kandachi of the Salamander in the Hidden Rain, to strive for a eting with Hanzo of the Salamander."
Konan hesitantly raised a concern: "Ordinary transformation jutsu is hard to deceive ninjas and could easily be exposed, right?"
"Anyway, our plan is just a try."
Though he said that, Uehara was quite confident himself.
Uehara Naraku could transform into the appearance of Yamanaka Fuu. The Innate Illusion Charm Skill was even more powerful than the transformation jutsu of White Zetsu.
The Innate Illusion Charm Skill was far more realistic than the transformation jutsu in the Ninja World. As long as he didn’t use skills or get attacked, ordinary ninjas couldn’t uncover his skill.
The combat plan was confird quite smoothly.
The entire plan was divided into three parts.
Nagato and Konan went to the designated eting location to set up a Sea of Paper Bombs;
Uehara Naraku went to et Kandachi of the Salamander;
Kaguya Kimimaro and Haku, etc., went to the northern outpost to cause trouble, leading the Hidden Rain Village to believe that Akatsuki mbers were not in the Eastern Canyon, reducing their suspicion, and increasing the probability of success.
After confirming the steps of this plan, even Konan was sowhat puzzled: "Isn’t our plan a bit too hasty?"
"This is sothing we have no choice about."
Uehara Naraku sighed, glancing at the Six Paths Pain, then softly continued, "We really don’t have enough people. Thankfully, there’s still Lord Nagato’s Six Paths Pain to help impersonate Root attendants..."
Konan: "..."
Nagato: "..."
They probably never imagined that the first mission for the collective appearance of the Six Paths Pain would be to impersonate Root attendants.
Isn’t this setup a bit low-scaled?
However, if Uehara Naraku’s plan succeeds, it would certainly be a fatal blow to Hanzo of the Salamander, and a very gratifying process for Nagato and Konan.
Using the enemy’s thod to destroy the enemy.
It’s simply the best way to interpret revenge.
Nagato sighed quietly, only able to manipulate the Six Paths Pain to don the hidden uniforms of Konoha Root ninjas.
The next day.
Uehara Naraku transford into the appearance of Yamanaka Fuu and arrived with the Six Paths Pain at Kandachi of the Salamander’s negotiation site, aiming to lure out Hanzo of the Salamander himself through this right-hand man.
This was the scheduled ti agreed upon by Konoha ninja and Hidden Rain ninja.
As for the location, it was still the Eastern Canyon where they held their last talks.
Coincidentally, Uehara Naraku had co to this place before with Hattori Heikawa.
"You are one minute late."
Kandachi of the Salamander glanced at Yamanaka Fuu across from him, then glanced at the Konoha Ninja draped in cloaks behind him, coldly snorting, "We contacted you with the intention of allying with Konoha!"
"Uh..."
Uehara Naraku as Yamanaka Fuu was montarily stuck, then said, "That’s because we just received new orders from Lord Danzo. He doesn’t believe that our negotiations will lead to anything."
"What does this an?"
Upon hearing these words, Kandachi of the Salamander’s expression imdiately turned to rage: "Is Konoha playing us?! It was clearly you who proposed the alliance first!"
Previously in front of Hanzo of the Salamander, Kandachi of the Salamander had certainly advocated strongly for Hanzo to agree to join forces with Konoha Root to eliminate the Akatsuki organization.
Now Konoha suddenly tells them they’re not playing along anymore?
"No need to get so worked up."
The Uehara version of Yamanaka Fuu shook his head, gazed at the rain ninjas across from him, and said in a low voice, "We truly have the sincere intention to ally with Lord Hanzo, but the two of us can’t make decisions in this negotiation, right?"
"What do you an?"
"Exactly as it sounds."
The Uehara version of Yamanaka Fuu glanced regretfully at Kandachi of the Salamander, then continued in a low voice, "I greatly respect Your Excellency’s unwavering defense of the Hidden Rain Village’s interests, but now I’m soone unqualified to partake in these negotiations."
Kandachi of the Salamander seed satisfied with Yamanaka Fuu’s words.
This right-hand man of Hanzo raised his brow, wearing a slightly fierce smile on his face: "So it seems Konoha is sending a big shot!"
"Indeed."
Uehara version of Yamanaka Fuu pondered and nodded, saying seriously, "Lord Danzo will arrive in the Land of Rain the day after tomorrow. He hopes to personally et with Lord Hanzo to discuss the alliance between Konoha and the Rain Ninjas and the number of ninjas we will send to assist you."
"This is sothing I cannot agree to..."
Kandachi of the Salamander hesitated, shaking his head seriously: "Last ti, after Lord Hanzo’s collaboration with Lord Danzo of Konoha, there were so controversies in the village... After all, during the Ninja World War, there were so... so grudges left behind."
After carefully choosing his words, Kandachi of the Salamander continued, "This ti our negotiations are secret, and those present are all confidants of Lord Hanzo... If more people co to know about this, it won’t be good for Lord Hanzo’s prestige."
After Kandachi of the Salamander finished speaking, the six Konoha Root ninjas nearby were noticeably fidgety, and this quickly aroused the vigilance of the rain ninjas.
This was Nagato controlling the Six Paths Pain getting impatient!
Since the plan couldn’t succeed, they should just kill these people to collect a bit of interest!
The Uehara version of Yamanaka Fuu hurriedly gestured for them to stop, looking solemnly at Kandachi of the Salamander: "The reputation of the Ninja Demigod is certainly important... but our Lord Danzo is also taking a huge risk to co to the Land of Rain!
Your Excellency might want to tell your demigod that if it weren’t for our Lord Danzo consistently advocating the alliance with the Hidden Rain Village among Konoha’s high ranks, Konoha’s Anbu would have long been rampantly active in your Land of Rain, gathering intelligence without a care!"
