The land of thunder.

"ah!"

The sound of screams came from the canyon, and immediately, the eyes of the Kumogakure ninja who was being watched immediately turned scarlet, with three black magatama appearing in their eyes, and the expression on their faces became completely dull.

Itachi stared blankly at the Cloud Ninja who was controlled by his Sharingan, his eyes were cold, and the Cloud Ninja wriggled his lips and began to speak.

When the words spoken by the Kumo ninja were all remembered, Itachi released the Sharingan genjutsu, and the Kumo ninja also lost the support of his strength, and his body fell straight to one side, losing his breath.

boom!

A scorching fireball was spit out from Itachi's mouth, burning the Kumo ninja's body completely.

Otherwise, leaving traces of being controlled by the Sharingan will make things very difficult.

Itachi, who wants to be perfect in everything he does, doesn't allow himself to make such mistakes.

"Has the information been obtained?"

Onigao from the same group came up from behind, carrying the body of a Kumo ninja on the big sword on his shoulder, and he easily eliminated it.

"The level of these ninjas is too low and they don't know anything about the Eight-Tailed Jinchuuriki. I don't know how Bai Zetsu's investigation is going and whether there is any new progress."

Itachi muttered to himself like this, his scarlet eyes scanning the distance.

"Even if there is new progress, when the time comes, the two of us will go and capture it. Really, we have obviously captured the four-tailed and fifth-tailed beasts, and we will probably be responsible for the eight-tailed beast next..."

Guijiao sighed, looking like he was troubled.

"At the moment, we are just collecting intelligence. After all, the Eight-Tails Jinchuuriki is the perfect Jinchuuriki. Most people used to just die. When the time comes, we will have to be prepared to face the Fourth Raikage directly."

Itachi also sighed lightly.

Among all the chuuriki, there are two that are the most difficult to catch.

These two Jinchuuriki are both perfect Jinchuuriki.

One is Kumogakure's Eight-Tailed Jinchuuriki, Kirabi, the adopted brother of the Fourth Raikage, and a member of Kumogakure's Abby group. He is almost inseparable from the Fourth Raikage. Unless it is during a special war period, Kirabi

There is basically no precedent for leaving the village alone. Once Kirabi leaves the village, the Fourth Raikage will definitely follow him. Therefore, it is very difficult to capture Kirabi.

The second person is Kirigakure's predecessor, Mizukage, Goju Shikura. He is also a perfect Jinchuuriki. He is very powerful and has many elite guards around him. Even if he retires in his prime, it will be no less difficult to capture him than Kirabi.

These are two huge problems that the Akatsuki organization will inevitably face in its next actions.

"I hate thunder and speed ninjas."

Guijiao twitched the corner of his mouth.

Although his physical skills are not weak, his strongest abilities are his water escape and chakra absorption ability.

The Thunderbolt Ninja who is good at bursts of speed will affect the performance of his Water Type Ninjutsu.

"In the previous One-Tail operation, the organization lost two members, Scorpion and Hidan, and is now short of manpower. Next, we need to be careful here."

Itachi gives a piece of advice to ghosts.

"As for Hidan, I can understand it. Strictly speaking, his technique is very flawed. But the Scorpion Council was defeated, which I didn't expect. The Nine-Tails Jinchuuriki, who has always been ignored, seems to have become a climate change.

"

Guijiao didn't take these words to heart and laughed twice.

"Who knows about this kind of thing?"

"It's so indifferent. When your companion died, Itachi, you didn't even look sad at all."

Guijiao said so.

Although he was the one who leaked Hidan's information and gave out the list of people responsible for arresting Ichimi this time, he is still an outstanding employee who works conscientiously and loyally for the great cause of the organization.

I feel 'heartbroken' for my dead companions.

Itachi snorted lightly, not caring about what Onijiao said.

Because he heard the meaning of gloating from Guijiao's mouth.

This guy, Guijiao, has a worse character than him.

"Go back. I heard that Nagato is already at Amegakure and has prepared a mourning party to bid farewell to the two of them."

"All right."

Guijiao nodded and followed in Itachi's footsteps.

Most of the time, he is dominated by Weasel.

Because of this, he could better observe Itachi's every move.

It's just a pity that in all these years, Itachi has never shown any abnormality in front of him, not even a trace.

Gui Jiao felt helpless, this was a terrible spy who was not inferior to him at all.

◎

In the office, Shiraishi read the entire task completion process reported by Cai.

From departure to rendezvous with Sunagakure, the battle with Akatsuki, and then the return, although I have not personally experienced it, looking at this report, it is as if I have participated in the action.

"There are two mistakes."

Shiraishi put down the work report in his hand and glanced at Ai in front of him.

"Two mistakes?"

Cai was slightly stunned, not understanding what Shiraishi meant.

His reports were all truthful, without any exaggeration. In addition, his actions were all based on his own interests, and he made no obvious mistakes.

"This time the Akatsuki organization lost not three members, strictly speaking, only one."

"Only one? How is that possible?"

Cai opened her mouth wide.

The immortal Hidan was brought back by him, proving that the Akatsuki organization had actually lost this member?

Could it be that among the three people the Akatsuki organization lost this time, there are still some who are still alive?

"Deidara of Iwagakure!"

Cai immediately thought of something.

According to Haruka Hanami and Kirie, Deidara died of a self-explosion, leaving no trace of his body.

Although Cai felt suspicious about this incident, she later symbolically searched the location of Deidara's explosion, but found nothing.

Now that I heard Shiraishi's explanation, I suddenly thought that Deidara did not die in the explosion.

That self-destruction was his plan to escape!

"Not only Deidara, the Red Sand Scorpion is not dead either."

Shiraishi tapped his finger on the table and made a sound.

"What? This is impossible! I clearly remember the body of the Red Sand Scorpion..."

"Not long ago, Chiyo of Sunagakure died. Although it was announced that he died of a dead end, I asked General Dou to go to Sunagakure to check, but no body of the Red Sand Scorpion was found."

"!?"

Cai's eyes widened and she suddenly understood something.

The forbidden art of reincarnation!

After returning, Chiyo used the forbidden technique of reincarnation on the dead scorpion to resurrect it.

"The Red Sand Scorpion, this guy's abilities are very troublesome. If we encounter him next time, I'm afraid..."

Cai slightly felt a headache.

"Don't worry, the other party is just resurrected. But according to Akatsuki's informant, the record is that the Red Sand Scorpion is dead. The other party is likely to break away from Akatsuki after being resurrected. Otherwise, that Chiyo will not give up his life

.”

Shiraishi knows very well what Chiyo is like, and no matter how much she loves her grandson, many times, as the founder of Sunagakure, she still has to consider the overall interests of the village.

He didn't know what kind of psychological impact Chiyo would have on a rebellious Ninja like Xia, who risked his life to save him, but he thought he would never do anything for Akatsuki again.

As a result, Akatsuki actually lost two core combatants in this operation.

The Red Sand Scorpion, and the Immortal Flying Dan.

"That's it."

Cai breathed a sigh of relief.

"Although there are some errors in the report, it has nothing to do with your own will, so don't think too much about it. Next, the letter of appointment as a jounin will probably be sent to you the day after tomorrow. If there is nothing else, go ahead. In addition,

, we have basically reached an agreement on the herbal cooperation with Zhi Zhi Country. If you are not very busy, you will need to spend more time with the little princess of Zhi Zhi Country during this period."

Shiraishi waved his hand, indicating that Cai could go down.
