Uchiha's Counterattack

When he opened his eyes, the first thing he saw was Payne's cold face, but that familiar face had long since lost its vitality and looked at him coldly without any emotion.

Xiaonan sat up from the sofa and looked directly into Payne's eyes.

"It's not too late for you to change your mind now."

"No, I think this is the best choice."

"you……"

"That is a man that even Uchiha Madara treats with caution, not in terms of strength but in terms of psychology. The unnatural feeling every time I mention him cannot be hidden from my perception."

"Is that why you want to go to New Konoha yourself?"

"This is for organizational considerations and for you Nagato."

There were only two lonely figures in the cold room, standing one behind the other in front of each other.

Pain frowned unknowingly, and he instinctively rejected this choice. But... Konan's eyes were like lifeless pools of water revitalized. She set her sights on New Konoha and insisted on going in person, because

She thought there must be some secret inside that Akatsuki should know.

Payne turned around and walked to the window sill, looking at the heavy rain outside. The air was colder than the body of his friend. Whenever he saw such heavy rain coming, Payne would recall the scene that day.

And the death scene of a close friend.

"There's no need, just send Suzaku there. She also has the gift of perception."

"No, that woman was obviously sent by Madara to spy on us. She is as untrustworthy as Kisame." Konan refused without thinking. She had never believed Suzaku, just like she had never believed Madara.

Same.

Konan narrowed her eyes slightly. She knew clearly that Nagato was not willing to let her take risks. To be honest, she knew that she was not good at fighting, especially when her paper escape was almost naked when facing the fifth generation Bai Yan.

No difference.

But Xiaonan is very good at sensing and hiding. This is her talent. Closing her heart and refusing to perceive is her strength. Secondly, she is good at bewitching and inducing ninjas.

Her talent, combined with Pain's Six Paths and Hell Path's sealing technique, allows her to disguise herself as a non-threatening ordinary person while retaining her own strength. This disguise allows Xiaonan to easily sneak into the refugee ranks

, and then go through the formal procedures to join the new Konoha Village from among the refugees.

"Nagato, now is not the time to worry about personal affairs."

"The Uchiha Madara you should know has a problem, and he has been avoiding contact with New Konoha for the past two years. You should be the one who can see this matter most clearly. He may be able to hide it from others, but your Rinnegan Eye

With my perceptual ability, we can clearly detect his abnormality, right?"

Xiao Nan opened his mouth and said.

Payne was still silent and looked at the rain outside the window, which kept falling.

I don't know how long it took before Payne let go and said.

“…”

"..."

————————

Boom!

Tian Country, somewhere at the foot of a remote mountain.

A huge explosion broke the tranquility in the mountains and fields. Many birds and animals were frightened and ran around. They used their strength to escape towards the outskirts of the forest. The reason was that the explosions had not stopped in the past few days, and many of the same kind had already been killed.

He was implicated and bombed to death.

"Ahem, cough, cough, little Xia Nan, you should take it easy!"

The thick smoke almost blackened his handsome face, Jiraiya complained and waved.

"I told you to stay away."

High temperature, thick smoke, burning white flames.

Not only did it explode a blocked hole, the poisonous high temperature even melted the surrounding stones and water, and the water vapor mixed with the poisonous mist rose together, turning into a strange purple mist.

Xia Nan and Jiraiya searched for a long time in the past few days, and finally found the entrance of the cave not far from the ruins of the village that the grandfather and grandson mentioned. To be honest, they didn't expect to find this place at the time.

, but thanks to Jiraiya, he found it unexpectedly with a few vague directions and clues along the way.

"Hey, Jiraiya, look here."

"Coming, coming!"

When Jiraiya rushed over, Xia Nan was already standing at the entrance of the cave with his hands on his shoulders. Half of his body was still in the form of burning flames. It seemed that the long-lost elemental transformation made his whole body excited. Don't say it, Bai Bai

Yan seems to be jumping and dancing happily, but it has been suppressed for more than a year.

But unfortunately, this happy time was too short. The next second, Xia Nan waved his hand to extinguish the flames and turned his body into a solid body again. Bai Yan fluttered in the air twice in dissatisfaction before slowly disappearing in annoyance.

…

Xia Nan could feel the emotion of the flames in his body, and he shrugged helplessly. The white flames were so powerful that ordinary people would feel thirsty even if they were even a dozen meters away, let alone getting close, as if they were putting their face in the middle of a brazier.

, under the rolling heat wave, it only takes a few seconds to be severely burned.

Although Jiraiya is a ninja and one of the top three ninjas in terms of strength, to be honest, he doesn't dare to resist Xia Nan's white flames even if he turns on the sage mode. That thing is really going to kill you if you touch it.

, only Obito who was able to fight with Xia Nan and destroy a piece of terrain, but still kept it intact.

"So, is there hope for this cave?"

Xia Nan asked, pointing to the dark cave entrance where the wind was blowing. This was already the 43rd hiding place that he and Jiraiya had found. If he kept looking for it like this, Xia Nan felt like he was going crazy.

So if you can't find it again...

Xia Nan guessed that she had no choice but to return to the village. There was no way that Orochimaru was so good at hiding that he couldn't even locate him by taking a photo with him, so why not make a P?

"Just your movements have scared you away!"

Jiraiya rolled his eyes speechlessly.

"Look, the Orochimaru you mentioned is a snake and not a rabbit. I'd be happy if he ran away."

Xia Nan returned the other party's eyes and gave the middle finger to show his sincerity. There has been little progress these days, but the relationship between Xia Nan and Jiraiya has improved by leaps and bounds. Originally, Xia Nan was the one in the 21st century.

He came from a certain soul, and he has a natural affinity for Jiraiya.

To be honest, if it weren't for the awkward position between the two of them in the early stage, Xia Nan wouldn't be in such an awkward situation.

But it's good now. After all, the past things have passed. Xia Nan and Jiraiya have reached a "consensus" on certain aspects and have conducted detailed and in-depth discussions. After all, this is all about the scattered shadow clones.

Time to pass the time.

The two mainly discussed the future female power of the village, from work benefits to clothing decoration, etc... Ahem, they had discussed it carefully, and firmly believed that this was an issue that required the two of them to work together.

important policies that can be accomplished.

The premise is that Tsunade or Baiquan cannot interfere, otherwise——

Well, the two of them will probably have to meet again under three feet of loess.

"Kid, we won the lottery!"
