I just returned to Konoha and found that my entire clan was gone.

He understood that this kind of thing couldn't be accomplished overnight, but Nagato's sense of time made him speed up the process, and looking around, he didn't see many good prospects.

Ye Lan noticed a girl with light red hair and took a closer look. The girl seemed familiar, and he wondered if he had seen her somewhere before. She seemed to have completed the teacher's lesson with ease.

Her control over chakra was clearly a level above others. When other classmates tried to ask her questions, she would scold them away. The students, whose self-esteem was hurt, had already started arguing with her.

Seeing that the situation was escalating, Ye Lan snorted and ended the pointless argument.

Upon seeing Ye Lan's anger, the ninja with light red hair immediately lowered his head, his previous unruly expression vanishing.

Ok?

This ninja knows me? Ye Lan was somewhat surprised by the girl's reaction.

He was just an ordinary Chunin, with nothing noteworthy except for his ability to control chakra.

After analyzing the situation, Ye Lan thought for a moment but still didn't ask any questions.

After Ye Lan left, the others breathed a sigh of relief. Ye Lan had put too much pressure on them. They didn't really care about the environment where strength was paramount in Yu Yin, but they just didn't have the courage to face it.

None of this escaped Ye Lan's perception. He shook his head with a wry smile, never expecting that he would become a role like a homeroom teacher. Speaking of which, he hated taking care of children the most, but he didn't expect that he would still be the same after leaving Konoha.

...

"I never expected the leader to assign such a task. This is really a headache."

Even Kisame found the leader's mission somewhat troublesome. The main problem wasn't dealing with any powerful enemies, but rather the fact that he didn't know where to begin.

"Let's just treat this as a trip around the ninja world. There's no need for us to take action anyway."

Sasuke didn't mind Itachi being his former teammate. Ye Lan had told him that as long as Kisame didn't do anything against Akatsuki, he could be considered trustworthy.

Kisame glanced at Sasuke. He was somewhat saddened that Nagato had assigned Sasuke to be with him, but it wasn't enough to warrant leaving Akatsuki. Itachi being a spy for Konoha was a fact, and he felt only a slight numbness towards that situation.

Neither of them mentioned Itachi again. Their relationship had been neither good nor bad these past two days, and they wouldn't have any major disagreements if they went out on a mission.

However, this mission was somewhat troublesome for them.

What does it mean to recruit as many talents as possible for the organization? No, it means recruiting animals, as long as they can contribute to the organization.

There are no strict requirements regarding ability; if you have special skills, the standards can be lowered.

After accepting the task, the two of them stared blankly, not knowing where to begin.

The idea behind the Heavenly Dao was simply to let them wander around outside. Since there was nothing else to do, the bounty missions had all been handed over to Kakuzu. Sasuke was now a rogue ninja of Konoha, so it wasn't appropriate for him to act openly. That's why they were given this mission.

Kisame was a man with two heads and one tail. He was good at killing people, but when it came to recruiting, he had no interest in people weaker than him. He was just too proud to refuse because of his identity as a ninja.

Sasuke pondered that this mission must have been Ye Lan's suggestion. Recalling the desolate state of Amegakure, he could roughly figure out Ye Lan's plan.

Sasuke would never have thought of this before; now he has a perspective beyond his peers.

Seeing Kisame walking ahead, Sasuke's gaze lingered on Samehada on Kisame's back for a moment before he took the initiative to greet him.

"Nanto, do you know the Frost Ninja from Kirigakure?"

Kisame paused slightly, looking at Sasuke with a puzzled expression.

"I don't know how you know about that person. He was my superior back in Kirigakure, but his reputation wasn't very widespread. He's a ninja whose strength far exceeds his fame..."

Kisame's memories were unlocked by Sasuke, and he gradually recalled his past in Kirigakure.

Chapter 141 The Changes in Yu Yin (Part Two)

"You're back. It seems you've been doing well in Konoha."

Ye Lan looked at Naraku's slightly fuller figure and said.

It's been almost a month since I left Naraku, and life in Konoha has definitely been much more comfortable than in Amegakure.

"Meow, I'm doing fine, but that white-haired ninja doesn't seem to be doing so well..."

Naraku jumped to Ye Lan's side and affectionately rubbed against Ye Lan's trouser leg.

"Huh? His eyes were stolen?"

Ye Lan squatted down and said.

"No matter what, it can't compare to the original owner. After all, not just anyone can use the Sharingan."

As a member of the ninja cat clan, Naraku's understanding of the Uchiha clan was far greater than that of ordinary ninjas. Even the ordinary Sharingan was not something that ordinary people could use. Kakashi's ability to use it to this extent was already exceptional.

"Even with information, there's no way to keep them here. Indeed, with the ability to become intangible, no one can stop them from leaving."

Moreover, Obito also possessed Wood Release and the power of a White Zetsu body, which was beyond the comprehension of ordinary ninjas.

"They've already left Konoha, yet they still care so much about them?"

Naraku's inappropriate voice rang out.

“They are them, Konoha is Konoha, and I only want to stop Obito’s purpose. Compared to Obito, they are not much of a threat.”

Ye Lan knew that his actions would put him at odds with the major ninja villages. Kakashi and the others didn't intervene because he wasn't threatening the village.

If their goals were truly opposed, Kakashi and the others would definitely not act the same way as before.

"Actually, Obito's departure was also quite embarrassing. That watermelon-headed ninja's taijutsu was incredibly powerful; it was the first time I'd ever seen such impressive taijutsu."

After delivering the information to the village, Naraku didn't have time to wander around. He also observed the entire battle between Kakashi and the others from a distance.

Ye Lan recalled the Eight Gates technique that Kai had used before. Anything trained to its extreme is terrifying, and Ye Lan deduced that Kai was very likely to be able to open all eight gates.

Kai will surely die after opening the Eight Gates, but no one knows how brilliant his final glow will be.

"And there's this bearded ninja who almost died. I can't believe he survived being pierced through the chest. Meow, you humans have such a strong will to live."

Upon hearing the news that Asuma had almost died, Ye Lan felt nothing; a ninja of that strength was no longer qualified to participate in unconventional battles.

Originally, I intended to cause Obito some trouble, but I didn't expect him to take back his eyes so easily.

Now he should be lying low, as Obito with two Mangekyou Sharingan has already made Ye Lan wary enough.

The only good news is that the enemy's intelligence has been exposed; now it's up to both sides to decide what to do.

"Naraku, there's something I'd like to ask you."

Since that humanoid creature left, Akatsuki's intelligence capabilities have declined significantly.

Ye Lan heard from Tiandao that the thing was amazing, and it had always followed Obito, possessing excellent stealth abilities. Most of Akatsuki's intelligence came from its hands.

Now that Obito and Zetsu have left, although it was Nagato's choice, Ye Lan also bears some responsibility.

The other members didn't express anything, but over time they would definitely feel some dissatisfaction. To avoid potential trouble in the future, Ye Lan decided to fix this hole directly.

"Ye Lan, why are you being so polite with me, meow."

Naraku licked his paws and said nonchalantly.

"Please feel free to ask if you need anything."

"I plan to cooperate with your ninja cat clan. From now on, you will be responsible for providing information on Amegakure. You can't make this decision yourself, so go back and discuss it with Granny Cat."

Ye Lan is right, and the Ninja Cat Clan has never served a single village.

Ye Lan's suggestion was clearly intended to bind the Ninja Cat Clan directly to Amegakure, preventing them from providing information to others. In the past, Granny Cat would definitely have refused.

Naraku stopped what he was doing, staring at Ye Lan with his two cat eyes for a long time before speaking.

"If I told Granny Cat directly, I'd probably get yelled at to death..."

"It's okay, just tell her it's my idea, she'll agree."

Ye Lan waved his hand casually. As long as that old cat had a long-term vision, she wouldn't refuse his request. Besides, it wasn't that they were to provide it for free; it was just that they shouldn't expose Amegakure's information to other ninjas.

The ninja cat clan, whose business had already suffered because of the Uchiha, would not let this opportunity pass them by.

"Alright, I'll go back to my clan and explain the situation."

Naraku didn't know why Yelan had such confidence, but as its master, it couldn't refuse. Besides, it felt that Yelan was a pretty good person.

Ye Lan then observed the progress of the medical department. A month had passed, and the first assessment had eliminated most of the people.

Not everyone can endure this kind of tedious and boring learning. Ye Lan wasn't too surprised, though. Things will get much better once this batch officially becomes members of the medical department.

Looking around, Ye Lan noticed that the red-haired female ninja was still there. He nodded. This girl couldn't compare to the children from Konoha, but she was still considered outstanding in Amegakure. It seemed that she would be the "top student" of this batch.

Then Ye Lan went to the R&D department, and a month later he wanted to check on Scorpion's progress.

"Hmph, you've finally arrived. The things you asked for are almost finished. I really don't know what the point of making this kind of toy is."

Scorpion was fiddling with his puppet. He had plenty of materials to squander, and even now he felt that his puppetry skills could be improved further.

"Don't get so angry. Besides, this stuff is originally sold to rich people."

Ye Lan ignored Xie's complaints and walked to the finished product, which was covered with a white cloth, obscuring its original appearance.

Just by looking at its size, you can tell it's not a small object.

Ye Lan grabbed the white cloth and suddenly lifted it up, revealing a metal car that could only have appeared in his previous life.

That's right, Ye Lan had Scorpion make a car.

The technological advancements in this world are quite peculiar. Despite having internal combustion engines and cranes, the majority of transportation is still horse-drawn carriages. Only in the Snow Country are snowmobiles used for hauling goods due to the climate, but they haven't become widespread.

Ye Lan put a lot of effort into designing this car in order to get those nobles to open their wallets.

First, shock absorption is crucial, as Yelan has very high requirements. Second, comfort is paramount, as the spacious interior ensures that you won't feel confined.

"Tsk, what village would buy something like this?"

Scorpion was unaware of Ye Lan's plans and shook his head.

"Heh, you don't need to worry about that. If we put this stuff into a factory, how many cars could we make in a month?"

Ye Lan had already figured out the marketing strategy. He had seen countless examples of marketing car culture in his previous life, and those face-conscious nobles were exactly what he wanted to do. He didn't believe this thing wouldn't sell.

"With me supervising, even with full production, we can only manage about ten vehicles a month. You should know that the village has only restarted one factory so far."

Yuyin doesn't have enough funds right now, so not many factories have been restarted. Besides, the factories don't have any orders right now, so they can't afford to keep many people idle.

"Don't worry, all of Yuyin's factories will reopen in six months. I'm just afraid you won't be able to keep up with the demand."

Ye Lan said with great confidence.
