Chapter 684: What Nonsense Are You Talking About?
Summer is coming, but the Land of Rain is still cloudy, especially in Amegakure, where the rain poured heavily.
Jiraiya is wearing a raincoat and a bamboo hat on his head, and hurriedly walking in a remote street with his head lowered.
Half a month ago, Jiraiya came to Amegakure and started investigating Akatsuki. He sneaked into Amegakure’s office building several times to look through the information, only to find that the leader of Amegakure, Hanzo of the Salamander, who is known as of Shinobi World’s Demigod, has actually died many years ago!
Regarding this old opponent who has suppressed himself, Tsunade and Orochimaru, Jiraiya still respects him. He always thought that because Hanzo of the Salamander was old and weak, he had to take a back seat or retire directly, but he didn’t expect…
Jiraiya then thought of another important thing.
‘Since Hanzo is dead, then who is the next leader of Amegakure?’
‘If Akatsuki is really in Amegakure, then the new leader should be… Nagato?’
Jiraiya was excited and sad again, but after some investigation, he found that Amegakure has not had a leader for many years!
‘Then, who owns the power of Amegakure in their hand?’
Jiraiya frantically raided various office buildings in Amegakure at night, but did not get any useful clues.Helpless, he had no choice but to get it from Amegakure’s higher-ups. After some inhumane methods of torture, Jiraiya finally found the truth!
Many years ago, after the death of Hanzo, a Shinobi who claimed to be a ‘God’, suddenly descended in Amegakure. This ‘God’ was very mysterious and powerful, but never appeared in public. Even if he passed orders, he would pass it through an angel, so even Amegakure’s higher-ups has never witnessed the true face of their ‘God’!
Only the continuous heavy rain above Amegakure heralds the existence of this ‘God’.
And the residence of this ‘God’ is in the central steel tower of Amegakure!
‘God… Could it be Nagato?’
‘Angel… Konan?’
Jiraiya let his imagination run wild while wandering around, and he finally came to the vicinity of the central steel tower. The surrounding is empty and there are no buildings that could block him. Once he went out, his figure would be exposed to the sight of the steel tower!
Jiraiya looked up, and in the continuous heavy rain, he could only vaguely see the top of the steel tower.
‘Should I rush in?’
Jiraiya hesitates slightly.
……
Land of Fire.
Konoha.
Ichiraku Ramen.
Kanp?, Mei, and light bulb Ao are sitting on a small square table, eating ramen.
“How about it? It tastes good, right?” Kanp? smiled and put down the bowl and chopsticks.
After leaving Hokage Tower, Kanp? ran to find Mei to cooperate with the investigation. As a result, he happened to meet Mei and Ao going out to eat, so Kanp? decisively brought them here.
“As expected of Konoha's best restaurant, Ichiraku Ramen.” Ao was sweating profusely from eating and gave a thumbs up with a look of approval.
“So-so.”
Mei glanced at the bottom of the bowl, quickly put down her chopsticks, and said, “It’s far worse than the barbecue in Kirigakure.”
Kanp? didn’t refute her, and said: “The barbecue here tastes good too. I will take you to eat there tonight.”
He emphasized you, not you two, and deliberately glanced at Ao as he spoke.
Ao has no self-awareness and said with a smile: “That’s great, I like barbecue the most!”
‘So shameless.’
Kanp? snorted secretly.
After paying and leaving, Kanp? took them to a nearby park for a stroll. He originally planned to chat with Mei to mend the rift, but it was a pity that they came up to talk about business.
“Gekko Kanp?, regarding the disappearance of Three-Tails, we need your cooperation in the investigation!” Mei said in a business-like tone.
Kanp? pursed his lips and said, “Hey, this matter really has nothing to do with me. It was all done by Akatsuki. Orochimaru stripped the Biju from Yondaime Mizukage’s body, and then get Hyuga Taki to kill him. They want to put the blame on us and cause a war between Kirigakure and Konoha!”
“It was Konoha who wanted to start the war, right? They actually used Hyuga Taki, who has been dead for many years, to take the blame!”
Mei said with a snort, “Unless you bring him to me, I won’t believe it!”
‘Isn't that simple?’
Kanp? secretly thought, ‘That’s a matter of seconds.’
But thinking of this, Kanp? seems to have forgotten something.
‘That’s right, after Taki’s disbandment, I seem to have forgotten to fill the vacancy, but there’s no problem. There are a lot of Byakugan shadow clone in the Forest of Death, I can just get one of them go to.
After coming back to his senses, Kanp? said: “We have placed a reward for him, so there should be news soon.”
“How soon is this soon?” Mei asked.
“Maybe two or three days, maybe ten days, half a month, or about a year, haha, Terumi Mei, shall I take you to Senju Park for a walk?” Kanp? hurriedly changed the subject.
Ao, who is walking behind, suddenly took a few steps forward and asked, “Wait a minute, Hyuga Taki has been dead for so many years. From what basis did you speculate that Yondaime Mizukage-sama was killed by him?”
Kanp? was startled. This question is so sharp, he didn’t know how to answer it for a while.
Mei’s eyes lit up and she seemed to have thought of something. She stared at Kanp? with bright eyes, and asked, “Is there a Konoha’s spy in Akatsuki?”
Kanp? pondered for a moment, ‘Since Minato decided to let Shisui come back, there is no need to hide it, besides… hehehe…’
Kanp? decisively sold Shisui after careful consideration.
“That's right, we had already noticed the existence of Akatsuki a few years ago, so we picked a Shinobi to defect from the village. You all know that Shinobi.” Kanp? smiled and glanced at Ao.
Ao suddenly felt a wave of malice coming into his heart. He took a step back and asked, “Who is it?”
“Shisui of the Body Flicker. “Kanp? said with a smile.
“What?”
“How come?!”
Mei and Qing are all dumbfounded.
When Shisui defected from Konoha, it shocked half of the Shinobi World!
‘Unexpectedly, it turned out to be… fake?!’
‘Wait, it stands to reason that such important information is definitely S-Rank secret, why did Kanp? tell us so easily?’
‘This guy… Is he fooling us?’
Sensing the suspicion in the eyes of the two, Kanp? took the initiative to explain: “Only Akatsuki’s people know that Hyuga Taki is still alive, while Konoha did not know. But suddenly, a wanted warrant for him was released a few days ago, so Akatsuki must have known that there was a traitor within their ranks.”
A thought flashed through Mei’s mind: “You plan to let Shisui come back?”
“Hokage-sama has canceled his wanted order, so I believe he will be back soon.”
Kanp? said with a smile, “Terumi Mei, Ao, you should be able to see him after staying in Konoha for a while.”
Mei and Ao then look at each other.
“In other words, before Shisui returns to Konoha, we can’t leave Konoha?”
Mei suddenly frowned, “Did you deliberately tell us such important information to force us to stay in Konoha?”
“What nonsense are you talking about? I definitely don't think so! “Kanp? said innocently.
