Born in Sunagakure, dedicated to antagonizing Konoha for decades

After Nagato extracted the artificial tailed beast from the idiot's stomach, looking at the repulsive serpent before him, the rich man Nan was somewhat uncertain and surprised.

They had already sealed the Two-Tails. The only feeling she got from the Two-Tails was its enormous amount of chakra. However, this legendary tailed beast, which was formed by the Sage of Six Paths from his bloating, was much weaker than the Two-Tails in terms of chakra, yet it emanated a feeling that disgusted her. It was completely different from that kind of tailed beast.

"...Probably so. Those tailed beasts were born legitimately by the Sage of Six Paths and were cared for by him. This one, however, is just gas from the Sage of Six Paths' death. I think that's why this tailed beast is different from the Two-Tails... Regardless, let's keep it for now and deal with it after we've captured all the other tailed beasts."

Nagato also spoke with some uncertainty.

The reason he didn't seal the tailed beast directly into the giant monster was that he wanted to wait until he had obtained the other eight tailed beasts and filled the other eight holes in the giant monster before deciding where to put the tailed beast.

Secondly, after seeing this tailed beast, he really couldn't be sure if it was real or not, because this tailed beast was too weak, not even half the power of the Two-Tails, and this tailed beast gave off a really evil feeling, not like those traditional tailed beasts at all.

However, he couldn't be sure if this wasn't a Tailed Beast, because it was indeed extracted from the old man who had been turned into a fool by Shiki's two punches. Before it was extracted, the old fool was undoubtedly a Jinchūriki.

This situation left Nagato somewhat confused.

"Madara sent word that he's located the Six-Tails' Jinchuriki, but the Three-Tails hasn't revived yet. It'll probably be some time before it does. Also, because Deidara made such a big fuss this time, the Five Great Shinobi Villages seem to have guessed our purpose. By the time the Three-Tails revives, it might not be so easy for Itachi and Kisame to capture it..."

Hearing what his friend said, Tuhao Nan stopped worrying about the tailed beast and said to his friend with a somewhat helpless expression.

Deidara has really made a name for himself in the Akatsuki this time. Sasori hasn't even made a move yet, and Deidara has already wiped out all the leaders of those small ninja villages and all the bounty hunters who have turned rogue. Then, he arrogantly picked up his Jinchuriki, patted him on the back, and left. This kind of action makes it impossible for them to keep a low profile...

"...It's alright. We've come this far. Even if we're exposed, it doesn't matter. Before a god, no matter how much preparation they make, it's all in vain. We'll send Sasori and Deidara to Kirigakure to help Itachi and Kisame..."

At this moment, an invisible, menacing aura emanated from the body of the hanging-life-stricken Nagato.

Although he wasn't very educated, he had been a big brother for decades. What's the first requirement for being a big brother? Isn't it being able to protect your underlings and clean up their messes?

He didn't blame Deidara. Since he had recruited Deidara as a subordinate in the first place, he was prepared to clean up Deidara's messes, knowing Deidara's personality. Just like Hidan, Kakuzu had cleaned up Hidan's messes a lot over the years.

Moreover, this was indeed his mistake. Knowing that Deidara was out of his mind, he still let him fight this highly anticipated tailed beast. So now that something went wrong, there's nothing to say. He himself also bears some responsibility.

However, he didn't think these problems were a big deal, even though Deidara had him as his boss.

The Rinnegan gave him immense confidence; no problem was insurmountable in the face of those eyes.

A good boss is one who can protect his underlings!

1082. Where did Snake go?

What are they doing?

Looking at the few replies in his hand, Nawaki stared blankly at the ceiling and murmured to himself. He was happy that he had received replies from three of the other ninja villages after informing them, as he inherited his grandfather's idea of ​​the ninja world being a loving family. This was the first step in promoting the belief in the ninja world being a loving family.

But after reading the contents of the letter, he couldn't be happy anymore.

First of all, even if Onoki didn't reply, the villagers of Iwagakure still received the news. So what's wrong with that old guy Onoki? When the Third Hokage was alive, he fought against the Third Hokage for decades and seemed quite intelligent, right? He was also the second generation of the famous schemer after his great-grandfather. He should be cunning and shrewd!

Now, damn it, the Jinchuriki has escaped again in such a short time. Did the Third Hokage stop taking the medicine because he felt lonely and isolated after he died?

Next up is the Mizukage of Kirigakure. This beautiful Mizukage is much more eloquent than Onoki, whose two out of three sentences are just greetings to his family. She started with a lot of flowery greetings and thanks, and only got to the point later.

"Thank you, Hokage, for your concern for our village's tailed beasts. After receiving your letter, our village has strengthened its protection of the tailed beasts. However, the Three-Tails has not yet been revived since the accident years ago, and the time and place are unknown. The Six-Tails' Jinchuriki has been wandering around for several years because he was bored in the village, and his whereabouts are currently unknown..."

Nawaki saw this and didn't need to read any further. He replied with a long, rambling, and tedious letter, mainly conveying two points: the Three-Tails' resurrection time and location were still unknown, so strengthening protection was useless; the Six-Tails' Jinchuriki had been off enjoying himself for years and couldn't be found, so strengthening protection was still ineffective...

The Raikage's reply gave Nawaki an even bigger headache. Although it was only a few simple sentences, unlike the Mizukage's long and tedious reply, which was full of muscular masculinity, the Raikage's simple sentences gave Nawaki an even bigger headache than the Mizukage's long and tedious messages.

"I've already notified my brother; he'll come back after his concert. As for Erwei, he's already disappeared..."

Nawaki was numb, his head was buzzing. Now, apart from Konoha's Nine-Tails and Sunagakure's One-Tail and Seven-Tails, the Jinchuriki of the other villages had either been killed or had gone off to have fun!

Especially the Eight-Tails Jinchuriki of Kumogakure, don't you have any self-awareness at this point in time? Other Jinchuriki would at least hide when they go out and have fun, but you, on the other hand, are not famous enough and are holding a concert.

This is the world of ninjas!

There's no future in the entertainment industry!

"Sigh! In this world, all we can do now is protect Naruto. Shiki has already returned to Sunagakure. As long as we protect Naruto and the One-Tail and Seven-Tail, there shouldn't be too much of a problem. Moreover, the Eight-Tail Jinchuriki can perfectly control the power of the Eight-Tail, so even if they want to capture him, it shouldn't be that easy."

With Nawaki's rise to power, Konoha's Grand Marshal Nara Shikaku, who was reinstated, sighed helplessly.

How I miss it!

After the Fourth Hokage's death, he lived a carefree life for over a decade, sleeping in every day until he naturally woke up. His son was so intelligent that he didn't have to worry about him at all. But now that Nawaki has taken over, Tsunade has pulled him in to assist him. That carefree life is gone forever...

........

"Boom boom boom...!"

"Where is that bastard Orochimaru hiding? What is that bastard Itachi Uchiha doing? It's just a mere Six-Tails, and we still haven't caught it. He's so useless! I don't know why that bastard is so popular; he's almost as popular as you, Sasori. Hmm.....(▼he▼メ)"

In a small country in the ninja world, an art troupe discovered a laboratory that had been abandoned for who knows how many years and bombed it indiscriminately. Deidara was completely convinced!

Having debuted at the age of five and established a dynasty in the clay world of the Land of Earth over the years, he had never submitted to anyone in his life, but now he was completely convinced by Orochimaru.

After taking back the wild tailed beast from Takikage, they temporarily stopped their mission to hunt down tailed beasts and continued to search for Orochimaru's whereabouts in the ninja world. They would wait until Itachi and Kisame captured the Six-Tails before going to Kirigakure to stake out the Three-Tails.

So their current task is to continue pursuing Orochimaru. During this time, they found several of Orochimaru's former hideouts, but they had all been abandoned for who knows how many years.

Since they took on the mission to hunt down Orochimaru, they have discovered over a hundred of Orochimaru's hideouts, but they still can't find him. They are now completely convinced of Sasori and that blond uncle's unparalleled ability to escape Orochimaru.

It's not that I admire Orochimaru's ability to escape, but rather that I'm utterly impressed by what he's actually done throughout his decades-long career.

Although his education level wasn't very high, he had a general understanding of Orochimaru's career. Before becoming a rogue ninja, Orochimaru was a hero of Konoha in two wars, just like Uncle Tsuchimaki in Iwagakure. Moreover, it was said that Orochimaru's status in Konoha was much higher than Uncle Tsuchimaki's in Iwagakure.

As a hero of Konoha in both wars, he should lead people to fight and guard a region during wartime, and he should also be fighting and killing everywhere during peacetime, right?

However, the locations they discovered ranged from over thirty years ago to just a few years ago, meaning that Orochimaru already had laboratories all over the ninja world before he left Konoha.

Does he have that much time?

Now he really doesn't want to chase after Orochimaru, the master of time management, anymore.

It's not that he's incapable, it's that he's just so incredibly impatient. He should at least have seen the person once, given him some hope. Even if they'd escaped, he wouldn't be this frustrated. Now, after searching for so long, he hasn't even found them, and all he's done is clean up Orochimaru's mess...

Now he just hopes that bastard Itachi Uchiha will take care of the Six-Tails quickly so that he and Sasori can go to Kirigakure to hunt down the Three-Tails. Compared to searching for Orochimaru, at least hunting down the Three-Tails gives him some hope.

"Shut up, you idiot! If you say another word, I'll tear your mouth apart!"

Upon hearing the words "famous for his beauty," Sasori, the handsome guy next to Deidara, instantly turned his handsome face, which was hiding in his strange shell, blackened. He really wanted to shoot that big-mouthed bastard.

Damn it, how could he have been so stupid as to agree to change opponents with Payne? That idiot's big mouth and blond hair are just like that old bastard's; he's just so annoying...

Have you ever met your biological parents...?

As Handsome Scorpion thought of Big Mouth and Yellow Hair, a sudden inspiration struck him, and he turned around and asked seriously.

1083. Are your parents' hair also blonde?

He hadn't really thought about this before, after all, Deidara was much older than him, and Deidara was different from the Fourth Hokage, Minato Namikaze, who looked exactly like that old guy when he was young.

But now that I think about it, is it possible that Deidara looks like his mother?

If that's the case, that annoying blond hair and that big mouth, plus the strange sense of familiarity he felt with Deidara...

What the hell!

The old man even said he was as devoted as his grandfather; he's practically a philanderer!

If one can make a mistake while drunk in Konoha, why can't one make a mistake while drunk in Iwagakure?

Furthermore, judging from Deidara's age, it just so happens that at that time his hometown wasn't in a village and he was wandering around the ninja world...

"(⊙_⊙)?....I've only ever met my mother. My father seems to have died before I was born. Brother Scorpion, why are you asking this?"

Deidara said, looking completely bewildered.

I don't know why they're checking his household registration out of the blue.

"...Are your parents' hair blonde?"

Upon hearing this, Handsome Scorpion's suspicions increased by 45%.

As expected, it seems that Minato Namikaze never met his father back then...

However, he is not a scientist and cannot identify DNA, so it is necessary to understand the details.

"My mother isn't, and my father doesn't know. Brother Scorpion, what exactly do you want? (⊙_⊙)?"

"It's nothing... In the future, if anyone asks you, just say you've met your parents, and that their hair is blond..."

Now Sasori was even more certain that Deidara was the result of that old guy's drunken mistake in Iwagakure. However, he was worried that his little brother might not be able to handle such a big blow, so it was better not to say it for now.

But I cursed that old guy hundreds of times in my heart.

One from Konoha, and now another from Iwagakure.

Bah! You old fool, pretending to be innocent...

.......

"Ah!"

"Ah!"

Early in the morning, Masato was summoned to the Kazekage Building, where he suddenly sneezed several times in a row, spraying Conan's father's face all over the neighbor's face.

"Teacher, are you alright? You're not in good health, are you? You've caught a cold."

"Conan's dad" asked in surprise, wiping the drool off his face helplessly.

Only a martial arts expert like him can truly appreciate how amazing the teacher's physique is. Even with seven gates open, he couldn't beat the teacher; to go toe-to-toe with him, he'd need at least eight.

That's why he found it strange. Ever since he started practicing martial arts, he hadn't had any major or minor illnesses for decades. How could his teacher, who was in such good health, catch a cold?

"Cold my ass! Some bastard must be talking about me... Could it be Onoki? Impossible, I haven't messed with him in years..."

Masato rubbed his nose and began to speculate irritably. He went through all the people in the ninja world he had offended in his mind, and finally, the pointer still landed on that short, red-nosed Onoki...

"..."

The surrounding crowd was speechless and looked up at the sky. You've already ripped off Atsuki enough... -_-||

"Ahem, let's not talk about that for now. Lord Shinto, news has come from Konoha that Jiraiya, one of the Legendary Sannin, has tragically died while venturing into the Land of Rain alone. There is a message left by Jiraiya that they cannot decipher. You are more familiar with the Akatsuki organization, so I would like to ask you to help try to decipher it and see what it means."

Luo Sha reluctantly placed a slip of paper in front of everyone, annoyed at the unreliable old man. If he could, he really wanted to kick this old man out of the Wind Shadow Pavilion, but alas, his seniority was too low and his strength too weak; he couldn't possibly defeat this old man...

"What?! Jiraiya, one of the Legendary Sannin, is dead?! ...

Everyone was shocked to hear this news, for that was none other than Jiraiya, one of the legendary Sannin!

This is definitely a double-flower red stick series. I didn't expect them to die in the Land of Rain. Although they knew that the Land of Rain's lineup was terrifying, they have already gone out to fight the tailed beasts.

Logically speaking, there shouldn't be many talented people in the Land of Rain. Yet, Jiraiya, one of the Legendary Sannin, was left stranded there. This shows just how terrifying the Akatsuki group really is.
