She just hoped that Kiyoshi wouldn't do anything foolish. Hanzo was no weakling; it was no exaggeration to say that he was the strongest man in the Land of Rain!
……
"Not here yet?"
Xiao Nan asked, perched on Qing Si's back.
The scenery around Kiyoshi changes frequently, as if he is traversing different spaces.
"Of course... we've arrived."
On a high hill, a specially made kunai suddenly appeared and was stuck in the ground.
Kiyoshi's figure flashed and appeared at this location.
He looked down and could see two groups of people arguing.
Hanzo and Danzo, each with their own men, stood on a hill slightly lower than Kiyoshi and Konan, gazing at Nagato and Yahiko on the flat ground.
"Damn it, has the information been leaked?"
Danzo Shimura frowned as he listened to his subordinate's sudden report.
What's wrong with the people from the Hidden Mist?
Why is his news suddenly being spread everywhere?
How did they know?
What are the benefits of this?
Danzo Shimura racked his brains but still couldn't figure out why.
In the end, he had no choice but to say to Hanzo the Salamander first:
"Lord Hanzo, delay may lead to unforeseen circumstances. It would be best to act as soon as possible."
"Alright."
Hanzo the Salamander nodded, then turned to give some instructions to the Rain Village ninja beside him.
In order to ensure that the plan would not go wrong, in addition to sending people to capture Nagato and Konan, the people that Yahiko valued most, she also sent a group of troops to capture other Akatsuki members.
With the leader away, it would be an easy task to catch them off guard.
"Yahiko, something seems off."
Nagato called out to Yahiko.
He looked up, and his pale purple, wavy eyes could clearly see every detail above.
The next moment, Nagato's expression changed drastically.
"It's Kuju and his gang!"
Nagato shouted.
"what?"
Yahiko frowned and took out a kunai from his ninja tool pouch.
"Yahiko, I want you, the leader, to die here. If you dare to resist, you can watch these Akatsuki members die one by one."
Hanzo the Salamander pulled out an Akatsuki member and stabbed him on the spot.
puff.
The members of the group stared at Hanzo the Salamander with their eyes wide open, then fell silent.
Yahiko's eyes widened suddenly, and bloodshot veins were clearly visible in them.
Yahiko regarded every member of Akatsuki as family, so you can imagine the anger in his heart when he saw Hanzo of the Salamander so casually take his life.
"Hanzo, why did you deceive us!"
Yahiko roared.
His words were tinged with betrayal and incomprehension; he and the Akatsuki members had once regarded Hanzo the Salamander as a role model.
It turns out that this is the despicable person who set this trap!
"Hmph, all's fair in war."
Sanshoyu Hanzo snorted coldly.
The fact that Akatsuki's members were able to assemble so quickly is largely due to the personal charisma of their leader, Yahiko.
Many people gathered together because of his ideals.
If Yahiko doesn't die, Akatsuki will be like weeds, impossible to burn out, and will keep popping up from who knows where.
We must kill Yahiko here to eliminate any future trouble!
“Hey redhead, if you kill Yahiko with this kunai, I’ll let you and the other members go.”
Having said that, Hanzo the Salamander dropped a kunai.
click!
The kunai was placed between Yahiko and Nagato.
"……What!"
Panic appeared on Xiao Nan's face. She wanted to call out to Yahiko and the other person at the bottom, but because she had just been cured of the poison, she didn't have much strength to speak, and it was already difficult for her to stand up.
"Nagato...kill me."
After taking a deep breath, Yahiko quickly made a decision.
He felt it was a worthwhile trade if his life could save hundreds of Akatsuki members.
With so many people here, Hanzo the Salamander wouldn't lie.
Otherwise, his lifelong reputation would be completely ruined here.
"Nagato, kill me now!"
Yahiko yelled again.
Nagato froze, gasping for breath.
The cold air penetrated his lungs, making Nagato feel a chill.
His hands were shaking.
I simply can't bring myself to do it.
In Nagato's heart, Yahiko and Konan were the most important.
Other people are important, but they are not as high priority.
"hurry up!"
Just as Hanzo was about to urge them on, Sanshokuyu was about to start.
A group of people suddenly approached from a distance.
Tsunade?
Hanzo, the salamander, frowned.
Danzo Shimura, standing next to him, had an even more horribly gloomy expression.
Tsunade actually abandoned the peace treaty with Iwagakure and came here.
As expected, with the blood of the First Hokage and Tobirama's clan flowing through their veins, the "Will of Fire" in their hearts would be incredibly pure.
Was it because he colluded with Hanzo that Tsunade judged that he might endanger the village?
"Ok?"
Danzo Shimura was suddenly taken aback.
He suddenly noticed that Tsunade seemed to be looking for someone, glancing left and right.
Aren't I and Hanzo the Salamander up there?
Tsunade could see it at a glance.
Moreover, Akatsuki's leaders Yahiko and Nagato are also below.
So... who is Tsunade looking for?
Danzo Shimura was completely baffled.
"Hey kid, come here right now!"
Just as Shimura Danzo was deep in thought, Tsunade suddenly shouted at a certain spot.
Everyone followed the sound.
On the highest hill, two figures were standing.
One is Xiao Nan.
One of them is Uchiha Kiyoshi.
"Tsunade-sensei."
Kiyoshi hugged Konan and then used the "Flying Thunder God Technique" to teleport down.
"Do you still consider me your teacher?"
Tsunade crossed her arms.
Such a dangerous thing, and he went and did it all by himself.
In Tsunade's view, Kiyoshi must have known that Shimura Danzo might be colluding with foreign ninjas, so he rushed over immediately.
It's not just because Xiao is his client.
"I see."
Seiji smiled.
Unexpectedly, Tsunade cared quite a bit about her disciple.
Thank you for the generous donation, Warrior Girl!
P.S. Guys, I think I might be in love. Oh no, what am I going to do?
Chapter 283 The Death of Hanzo, the Second Gold Entry
"I hope you really know."
Tsunade gently tapped Kiyoshi's forehead with her hand.
Having chosen to take Kiyoshi as her disciple, she would set aside all sectarian prejudices and teach Kiyoshi earnestly.
"know."
Kiyoshi nodded again.
As the eye can see, the full curve of the protective robe can be seen, and a few lines of rainwater can be faintly seen on the slope above, slowly sliding down and falling into the abyss.
"Xiao Nan!"
Nagato and Yahiko were both taken aback.
While Tsunade and Seiji were catching up, their attention turned to Konan behind them.
No wonder Konan wasn't among her companions who were taken hostage; it turns out she was with Uchiha Kiyoshi.
"I am very grateful to Mr. Kiyoshi for saving Minami."
Yahiko expressed his gratitude with a serious expression.
Nagato's face also showed a rare hint of acceptance towards the Konoha ninjas.
His parents were killed by Konoha ninjas, so his feelings towards Konoha can only be described as hatred.
Now, with the examples of Jiraiya and Kiyoshi, his feelings about Konoha have become more complicated.
"Kiyoshi, why did you come alone?"
Kurenai ran over and tugged at Kiyoshi's winter robe with her little hand, seemingly checking for any damage.
