Guardians of Tirisfal of Konoha

Chapter 253: Yahiko's Small Goal

"Hanzo hasn't returned to Yuyin Village since the battle with us, and no order has been sent."

A strange color flashed across Jiaodu's green eyes:

"Furthermore, none of Hanzo's ninjas have ever returned. I checked from Hidden Rain Village to the place where the previous battle took place, and there were no traces of battle!"

Seeing the wonderful expressions of the three of Yahiko, Kakudu paused, and added:

"However, there was a large lake on the road where I remember it was originally a flat land. I dived into it, and I can basically confirm that it was formed not long ago!"

"...Could it be!"

The three of Yahiko made a guess in an instant.

Yahiko recalled that at that time, when the cold energy Satoru helped him gather disappeared, it seemed to be the time when Hanzo led his people to retreat.

"Could it be that at that time... Senior Brother Wu went after Hanzo!"

Yahiko murmured, full of disbelief:

"That's Hanzo! Could it be that Brother Wu silently killed him and so many Yuyin elites?"

Jiaodu is very familiar with the environment around Yuyin Village, so he can see that there was no lake there.

But ordinary people, who would have noticed that the Land of Rain, where water is everywhere, had a lake?

There aren't even civilians around there!

Based on what they learned, Wu has the strength and the right time, only Wu!

"Let's use 'disappearance' to define Hanzo for the time being... There is another situation that many people in Yuyin Village have not noticed."

Jiaodu's complexion became even weirder:

"I met the people from Konoha Anbe in Yuyin Village."

"Konoha Anbe!"

Yahiko frowned:

"Mr. Kakuto, are you sure that's Anbe, not the root of Danzo?"

"I'm sure. Anbu's mask is slightly different from his roots. Most people don't know it, but I know very well that Master Wu also served as Anbu."

Jiaodu nodded, and then his tone was full of disbelief:

"But they also seemed to be asking about Hanzo in secret, and the Anbu I noticed, after knowing that Hanzo had disappeared, once blurted out in shock..."

"Hanzo is dead too!"

"'Also' dead?"

All three of Yahiko opened their eyes wide.

Konoha Anbe are all Konoha's elite ninjas. If they are not strong like Kakuzu, they will definitely not be able to follow them without being discovered.

And who can be mentioned by Konoha Anbe and Hanzo together, and question death?

"Could it be..."

The four looked at each other for a while, and said a name at the same time.

"Danzo!"

"Brother Wu...won't he kill Danzo too?"

Yahiko rubbed his forehead fiercely:

"It's crazy, it's crazy, Brother Wu... Uh, but thinking about it carefully, it doesn't seem impossible."

"Why?"

Looking at Yahiko's pensive expression, Nagato still feels incredible:

"Danzo is a high-ranking member of Konoha, and he is also an old comrade-in-arms of Brother Wu's father. He just...killed him so neatly?!"

"Nagato, although Mr. Kakuto said that the relationship between Danzo and Brother Wu is not very good, but Brother Wu chose to do it at this time..."

Yahiko squeezed his fist hard:

"Don't forget what Hanzo said before retreating!"

"Which sentence... ah!"

Nagato woke up:

"He said that Danzo cooperated with him to assassinate the third Hokage!"

"That's right!"

Jiaodu also suddenly realized:

"That makes sense. Master Wu went after Hanzo first. He must have obtained evidence from Hanzo before he turned to kill Danzo. Danzo's behavior is undoubtedly a betrayal of the village!"

"That's why Senior Brother Wu killed him neatly... Danzo is looking for death!"

There was joy in Xiaonan's eyes. When Danzo attacked Akatsuki's team, he wanted to take her hostage!

If the four of them hadn't been vigilant, maybe he would have succeeded!

Konan couldn't imagine what Danzo and Hanzo would do if he was used as a hostage to blackmail Yahiko and Nagato with the dark and despicable appearance of Danzo and Hanzo.

"It should be like this, that's right, but Konoha's side obviously set the target on Hanzo, which means that they now suspect that Hanzo and Danzo have conflicts... This is really a good coincidence."

Jiaodu smiled coldly:

"If all of this was arranged by Wu-sama, I wouldn't be surprised. No wonder he wanted to use the lake to cover up the battle traces. The Konoha Anbe gang would never have thought of it anyway."

"Huh... so, our crisis should be considered lifted."

Yahiko let out a sigh of relief. These few news were simply too shocking. The two giant ninjas disappeared in such a short period of time, and it is very likely that they fell into the hands of the same person.

"Then, next, we must stick to our actions—even if there are only a few of us, peaceful negotiations cannot stop. Without Hanzo's leadership, Yuyin Village should no longer be hostile to us."

"Oh? Leader, it can be said that Yuyin Village has lost its elite and is vulnerable... Have you ever thought about taking over Yuyin Village?"

Jiao Du glanced at several large boxes on the ground, and a golden light seemed to flash in his eyes:

"That's the Hidden Rain Village where Hanzo used to sit! The Hidden Rain Village that was able to face the Three Kingdoms in the last war! If you master it, how much money will it have... Cough, I mean, how big will it be for the organization's goals? s help!"

"..."

Yahiko was silent.

"Yahiko, what Mr. Kakutsu said is not unreasonable. If you use Yuyin Village as the foundation, you can use Akatsuki's goal as the ruling program in an official capacity, and gradually change the entire country!"

After thinking carefully for a moment, although Nagato wanted to complain about certain words in Kakuto's words, he had to admit that this was indeed a good idea.

"If you come to take charge of Yuyin Village, we can directly initiate peaceful negotiations with the three major powers!"

"...Nagato, it's not enough yet."

After a long time, Yahiko finally spoke, his eyes were full of firmness, Nagato couldn't help being stunned.

"Although Akatsuki's current influence is not small, it has not yet reached the level of replacing Hanzo. Even if he dies, we are now in control of Yuyin Village, and we are just taking advantage of it."

"We must use our own efforts to let everyone see that we can bring hope to this country and let everyone know that we are not usurpers who seize power by force, but innovators of the country."

Yahiko's eyes became brighter and brighter. Following his narration, Nagato, Konan and even Kakuzu all showed a smile.

"Yahiko, we will always support you, do what you want."

Xiaonan couldn't help but stepped forward to hold Yahiko's hand, making the impassioned young man blush suddenly:

"Uh... Am I being too idealistic?"

"No, Yahiko, what you said is right, if we use force to seize power, what difference is there between us and Hanzo?"

Nagato took a step back calmly, and also greeted the inexplicable Kakuzu together:

"Then, let's prepare the food and take a step first."

"Huh? It's not time for dinner, is it?"

"Mr. Jiaodu, you are really... Wanxiang Tianyin!"

"ah!!"
