My Ninja Cat Thought I Was Weak, So I Stole Thunder Fruit

Chapter 421 Akatsuki's secret meeting (6 updates, 350 monthly tickets plus updates)

After Kakuzu and Loquat Shizang's Chakra are all gone.

Nagato then controlled Pain Tiandao, and once again used the magic lantern technique to get in touch with other members of the Akatsuki organization.

By receiving the thought waves transformed by everyone with Chakra, the illusion of everyone is embodied in a certain cave.

The reason for choosing such a scene.

Partly to avoid someone eavesdropping on their communications.

On the other hand, it is also for safety reasons.

Soon, the phantoms of Payne, Konan, and Jue first appeared in the cave.

Their phantasms appear in colorful bright stripes.

Gives a very mysterious feeling.

It's just that Payne, Konan, and Jue are not in a good mood today.

They said nothing, waiting for visions of others to appear.

Besides the three of them, the visions of Deidara and the Red Sand Scorpion were the first to appear here.

The last one is Uchiha Itachi.

As for the visions of Kakuzu, Hidan, and Loquat Shizang, they have not appeared for a long time.

"It seems that there are a few people missing this time."

The red sand scorpion looked around.

Although due to distance, concentration, etc., the phantoms of members of the Akatsuki organization will appear in order.

But no matter who it is, they will not release Penn's pigeons for too long.

After all, the Akatsuki organization is not able to persuade these rebels to join in a few words.

Almost every invitation is accompanied by a battle.

As the leader, Payne has always possessed the strongest strength.

It is also because of this that every arrogant rebel will obey his leader.

But now...

Kakuzu, Hidan, Loquat Shizang did not appear for a long time.

Especially Tenzo.

His companion, Uchiha Itachi, has arrived here.

Anyone can see that the situation is not very optimistic.

"Indeed, something happened, right? Hmm!" Deidara couldn't help complaining.

But he didn't regard Kakuzu and Hidan as his companions in his heart.

Even if they were really wiped out because of mission failure.

He won't feel sad either.

If you want to blame, you can only blame them for their own lack of strength.

"It's true that something happened." Payne glanced at the Red Sand Scorpion and Deidara.

Then he turned to look at Itachi.

Although Hidan, who has an immortal body, is still alive, he cannot contact the other party.

For the fate of this undead duo, Payne no longer had much hope in his heart.

But since Itachi came back alive, he also wanted to find out the cause of Loquat Shizang's death.

Itachi met Payne's gaze.

Then he sighed helplessly.

"Although we successfully sneaked into Konoha, we approached the dungeon of the Konoha Police Department."

"But when we were in contact with Erwei Jinchūriki, people from the police department discovered us."

"In order to cover my retreat, Loquat Shizang chose to sacrifice himself."

Itachi's tone was very flat.

Although he is very grateful to Shi Zang for everything he has done for him, he is always a man who hides his true feelings in his heart.

Even now, describe Loquat Shizang's death to Penn.

He also showed no waves.

It was as if he was talking about a trivial, insignificant matter.

"Really, Ten Zang also sacrificed." On the other hand, Konan, who was on the side, got confirmation from Itachi's mouth, and a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

For every member who joins the Xiao organization, she will recognize each other from the bottom of her heart.

Think of them as your own companions.

Now I heard the news that Loquat Ten Zang died in hiding.

Konan's heart is naturally full of mixed feelings.

feel bad.

However, compared to Kakuzu, Hidan, Loquat Juzo's sacrifice.

Payne cared about another matter more.

"So, even you failed the mission, Itachi."

Payne met Itachi's eyes, and didn't blame him for killing Ten Zang.

Instead, he asked if Erwei Jinchūriki had been captured.

"Yeah." Itachi nodded, he didn't excuse himself, or find any objective reasons.

He openly admitted the fact that the mission had failed.

In any case, the Akatsuki Organization is currently understaffed.

Even if the mission failed, it was impossible for Payne to punish Itachi for this matter.

The most important thing is that Payne is somewhat afraid of Itachi's strength.

"If you look at it this way, those two freaks, Kakuzu and Hidan, have already failed." Seeing this, the Red Sand Scorpion simply joked.

But Itachi and Shizang invaded Konoha and went deep into the tiger's den.

It's no surprise that it fails.

But Kakuzu and Hidan are the seventh squad that ambushed and went out to carry out the mission.

One serves as Jōnin, plus three Genin.

That's bad enough.

"Although I don't want to admit it, but from the point of not being able to perceive Kakuzu Chakra, the mission should have failed."

Payne agreed with the Red Sand Scorpion's point of view.

"However, the failure of this operation has nothing to do with me, the leader of the Akatsuki organization."

"It was me who misassessed Konoha's overall strength."

In fact, when Nagato realized that the mission had failed.

There was a storm in his heart.

He never thought that the current Konoha Village would be so amazingly strong.

At the same time, these two failures also completely dispelled Nagato's idea of ​​sneaking into Konoha.

In his opinion, if he wanted to snatch the three tailed beasts from Konoha's hands.

There must be a big battle with Konoha.

Otherwise, any group of Xiao organization members.

It is difficult to complete the task in Konoha.

Then, after calming down a bit, Nagato manipulated Payne again and asked about the situation of the red sand scorpion and Deidara.

"We have just reached the border of Sunagakure."

Hearing this, the Scarlet Sand Scorpion spoke out about his current situation without even thinking about it.

Although he left Sunagakure for many years, he still has his loyal spies in Sunagakure.

Using them, getting into Sunagakure is not difficult at all.

At the same time, the Scarlet Sand Scorpion has also been investigated clearly.

"Today's One Tail Jinchūriki is the son of Fourth Kazekage Luosha."

"Still a Sunagakure Genin."

"It's not difficult at all to snatch him over."

The Red Sand Scorpion said lightly.

He was full of confidence in capturing Gaara.

Not only that……

"After I get back One Tail Jinchūriki, Deidara and I will go to Konoha."

"Bring back those three Jinchūriki, all of them."

When saying these words, the Scarlet Sand Scorpion looked specifically at Itachi.

As if deliberately provoking Uchiha Itachi.

"Sometimes, it's not a good thing to be overconfident in your own strength." Itachi greeted the Red Sand Scorpion and reminded him without thinking.

"Oh, really?" The Scarlet Sand Scorpion didn't care.

But when he confronted Itachi.

As the leader, Payne stopped the behavior of the two in time.

"As one organization, we must unite."

"Especially in this time of day."

After all, Payne said to Itachi alone: ​​"In short, you should be responsible for catching other tailed beasts first."
