Uchiha's Counterattack

The sad rain washed over the earth, and the cold wind swept like a wailing cry.

The city built by cold pipes exudes decay and despair.

How long will this country have to cry before it is willing to accept it? How long will the world continue to be at war? With the unpleasant smell and rainy season, I have almost lost even the thought of reaching out to touch the sun, as if I am used to it.

People in the dark cannot adapt to walking in the sun.

Payne sat on top of the statue, looking into the distance with his samsara eyes blooming like ripples. These eyes were both his and his. Even if his body died, his will and soul would always follow these eyes, looking at

The world in front of them was transformed into what the three of them had agreed upon in the past.

However, this promise and dream.

But the man wearing the mask was wrapped around him like a poisonous snake. Whether he could be trusted or not was no longer a question. Instead, how to use each other and find ways to solve each other might be the real problem.

But don't rush yet, the time has not yet come.

We all still need each other sometimes, so let's be patient for now.

Slowly close your eyes and listen to the patter of raindrops in your ears.

Payne's heart gradually became immersed in it...

——!?

"Penn, Orochimaru betrayed the organization."

Swept by the icy rain and wind, a woman appeared behind her waving her wings like an angel. She had beautiful blue hair and a gentle voice, but her expression was too cold, and her eyes were full of coldness.

Especially when the woman looked at Payne who turned her head, that familiar yet unfamiliar face would make her heart tighten uncontrollably every time.

"The Red Sand Scorpion has already fought against Orochimaru, but he failed."

Xiaonan added in an indifferent tone.

The red sand scorpion was not in a good state when he returned to the base yesterday. It was rare to see such a twisted and angry expression on that unpopular face. The scorpion, full of murderous intent, said coldly to Orochimaru.

He defected, and then dragged the surrounding low pressure back to his room. From the looks of it, he probably wouldn't be able to come out in a short time.

"Are we going to send someone after him?"

Konan frowned and suggested that the serious nature of betraying the organization is self-evident, so it is natural to pursue Orochimaru for this, not to mention that the other party also took away the "Sky" ring of the Akatsuki organization.

However, Pain only slowly opened his eyes. He was not surprised by Orochimaru's betrayal, so he didn't have any emotional fluctuations. If he had to say it, he would probably only feel that the snake couldn't bear it anymore.

Sense... How overestimating is the little snake trying to get a glimpse of the power of God.

"No need, the current Akatsuki organization is too short of strength. The two people sent to the Kingdom of Water both died at the hands of the Fourth Mizukage, and Kakuzu killed his own teammates. Currently, our organization is seriously short of manpower.

.”

"Don't worry about Orochimaru's affairs for now. The organization needs some time to recover now."

Xiaonan only frowned slightly when she heard the decision, but then she was relieved.

"Then what should I do about Scorpion? With his temper, he probably won't be able to bear it. Sooner or later he might go find Orochimaru alone. It's better to take this opportunity to hand over the task to him. Anyway, he shouldn't be there in a short time.

I’ll find a new partner.”

"No, Scorpion's words are still very useful. The problem with the partner - there is a kid near Iwa Country who likes to use explosives. It is said that he is the grandson of the third Tsuchikage. Although that guy was born in Earth Country, he has no awe at all.

, maybe we can win him over and become one of our own."

Payne thought for a while and said:

"We will take him out of the base when his condition becomes more stable, and then tell him that the organization's orders are absolute."

"...I understand, just follow your decision."

Konan has given up her position as a leader and decision-maker a long time ago. All her thoughts are now focused on Payne and Nagato. Hope, despair, darkness, and the future no longer seem so important, and war and peace are just

The normal events in this world, I no longer want to worry about those things.

Xiaonan nodded obediently, her eyes lingering on Payne's face from beginning to end, with a strong sense of sadness and mourning, just like the constant rain in this country, and she didn't know what was flowing on that cold face.

Is it rain or tears that have dried up long ago?

"By the way... Payne Madara brought back a strange woman from outside. The aura on her body is very strange and does not look like an ordinary person. I think it is necessary to be more careful about this man. I always feel that I cannot trust him.

"

"woman?"

Konan nodded silently. Recalling that when they first met, she didn't care because Konan didn't sense any chakra reaction from the other person. She just thought that Madara (Obito) brought back a pet on a whim.

But Madara's attitude towards that woman was extraordinary. Rather than feeling like superiors and subordinates, or using and being used, the relationship between the two of them was more of an equal cooperation.

This unusual behavior was firmly remembered in Xiaonan's mind, and judging from this, it was not easy for this woman.

"Would Madara actually bring a woman back?" Payne looked at the drizzling rain and thought thoughtfully that the man would not make any decisions without any reason. If he can bring this woman back, he must be not ordinary.

A person must have huge interests for him in order to force that man to take actions that are not in line with his style.

"Where are they now?"

Payne had the slightest interest in this woman, and a trace of mockery appeared on his cold face. He really wanted to see what kind of person would be who could make Madara break his own rules.

"Back to the base, that guy Madara seems to be planning to recommend this woman as a new member."

Xiaonan frowned deeply. Her reason told her that this was definitely not a good thing, but she had no way to directly reject Madara's proposal. The only person who could directly reject him was Payne. So Xiaonan came here and informed

When Payne Orochimaru defected, he mentioned this matter to him in the hope of stopping Madara's wishful thinking.

Konan didn't like Madara, and she had a bad feeling about him since the first time she saw him. The face hidden behind the mask and the evil eyes that occasionally showed red light gave Konan a strange feeling.

Tell yourself that maybe she will die in the hands of the other party sooner or later.

Konan is not afraid of death, and she even thought about liberation because of her excessive self-blame, but if she dies - then Nagato will really be alone. She cannot leave behind her comrades and friends who have grown up together.

Xiao Nancai lives in this world like a zombie.

Living in this dark and hopeless hell.
