Before Pain (Nagato) could think of how to comfort Kakuzu, who was like a harem-like woman, Shinji's casual voice sounded along with the footsteps that were getting closer and closer.

"Hey, are the important things that we have to talk about face to face over?"

The moment he heard Shinji's voice, Kakuzu calmly took half a step behind Tiandao.

"Well, it's over."

Tiandao nodded, hiding it for a moment.

After all, for Nagato, these guys have really worked hard for the Akatsuki organization over the years, especially when it comes to making money. They have worked very hard.

There is simply no one more suitable than him for the job of Finance Minister of the Akatsuki Organization. After all the efforts were made, there was no way he could find a money-making expert to replace him.

"Kakuzu, get familiar with your new teammates."

Upon hearing this, Jiaodu's heart skipped a beat.

It's over, is this leader ready to give up on himself?

Are you really prepared to team up with the evil in this world?

"Hidan, from today onwards you are a member of the Akatsuki organization. Kakuzu, give Hidan the ring that was given to you by Igo."

It was only then that Kakuzu noticed that there was a strange man with a big back next to Konan and Shenji. In an instant, the corners of the centenarian's eyes became moist!

No matter what, the leader still thinks of himself for working hard for the organization! He is not prepared to kill himself!

"Ah, ah, ah, I thought I would become this Kakuzu's nominal teammate, but it's my fault that I made this trip, ugh~"

"You will be alone for the time being."

After hearing what Payne said, Kakudu turned away from everyone and silently wiped the corners of his eyes.

…

After getting to know his new teammate, especially after learning about his so-called immortality, Kakuzu almost wanted to hug Tiandao and kiss him twice.

Stable, your life is safe!

As long as his teammates don't die, he doesn't have to worry about being on the same team as that goddamned Angolan Mainyu, and he doesn't have to worry about being killed by Angolan Mainyu!

…

After a brief acquaintance, Shinji knew that staying here would be no fun, so he took Minato and left without any nonsense.

At the same time, Kakuzu and Hidan also received their first mission from Pain and left. As for Konan, it was natural for her to stay and stay with Pain.

"You seem to care about that man."

Hearing this, Xiao Nan was panicked. She quickly withdrew her gaze and pretended to be calm: "No, I'm just curious about the so-called evil in this world."

"I understand, so do I."

Payne nodded indifferently, and then added: "He is different from Madara. Even if it is the second time we meet, I still can't see what he is thinking and doing. I can't even feel his human desire."

His desire...will only be revealed at special times, and it is a very pure desire that can devour everything.

Xiao Nan silently accepted it in her heart, and at the same time, she couldn't help but think of the dream she had in the early morning, and her heart couldn't help but tighten.

Did he... turn out to be in that kind of hell all along?

Half a minute later, Xiaonan realized that she had accidentally entered into random thoughts, and quickly shook the figure of the man out of her mind.

That is not his most important thing. His most important thing now should be Madara's matter.

Although this time we didn't get Madara's true purpose from the man (Shinji), we could hear from the man's words that Madara might indeed have an ulterior motive.

Otherwise he wouldn't be so interested in Madara.

"Nagato, do you think Madara..."

"He's still useful now."

Xiaonan was stunned by Payne's brief words.

What does Payne mean by this sentence?

What are spots and are they useful?

Could it be that……

Is Payne actually using Madara?

"Xonan, no matter what Madara's purpose is, he is still useful to us at this stage. Even the name Uchiha Madara alone has a great effect."

"Nagato, you have already..." Konan looked at Pain blankly.

"This kind of thing has been known from the beginning. Also, don't misunderstand the relationship between us and Madara. There has never been a relationship between us, but a relationship destined to use each other.

It doesn't matter what he wants to do, as long as we accomplish our goal, as long as the Ten-Tails is real."

Just as Shinji once guessed, Nagato did not completely trust Obito and Zetsu, he had his own ideas.

As long as they can spare no effort to help in collecting tailed beasts, it doesn't matter if other things are left to their own devices for the time being.

As long as the Ten-Tails is real, what Uchiha stone tablet? What Senju and Uchiha can achieve everything together? What Eye of the Moon plan? It has something to do with me.

Just saying that I agree with your so-called Eye of the Moon plan doesn't mean that I will do that, Uchiha Madara...

Listening to Nagato's tone of not taking Uchiha Madara seriously at all, Konan felt inexplicably relieved. Of course, he had no intention of relaxing his vigilance towards Uchiha Madara because of this.

The opponent is useful during the tailed beast collection stage, but what happens after that?

Should I find a way to dispose of it after it is no longer useful?

Xiaonan buried this idea in her heart.

…

Within the Kingdom of Rain.

The light rain never stopped, and so did Kakuzu's footsteps.

He glanced back at Shinji and Minato, who had been following closely since they came out of the base. Kakuzu was obviously a little panicked.

What's going on? Why do you keep following me?

"Boy, why do you feel like you are avoiding me?"

The sudden voice coming from his right ear made Kakuzu's eyes widen in an instant.

"Don't be nervous, as long as you fulfill my conditions, I will not attack you again. On the contrary..."

Looking at Shenji who had no words to say and had a playful expression on his face, Kakuzu cursed in his heart that this devil was still not ready to let him go!

"Listen up, you can collect the money I mentioned before and give it to me, every penny, and..."

…

Looking at the Walkman and headphones in his hands, Kakuzu could only describe his current mood as beeping dog. What the hell are these conditions!

He even asked himself to learn to sing a song and then held a concert with no less than 5,000 people.

Not to mention the number of five thousand people, we can't force them. They have to voluntarily buy tickets to enter the venue. If the number of people is less than five thousand, one person will be killed. The ticket cannot be less than three hundred taels a piece...

…

Damn, what are these conditions?

I’ve never seen anything played like this before!

By the way, am I already dead?

In contrast to Kakuzu, who had a gloomy expression on his face, Hidan had an indifferent expression on his face because the matter had nothing to do with him.

He patted Kakuzu on the shoulder and gave a thumbs up.

"Kakuzu-san, I believe in you! I think it's better to start with singing practice. Didn't that blue-haired guy give you five years? If you practice singing well, I believe you can definitely do it!

"

"you shut up!"

Kakuzu cursed. Although he wanted to crush the Walkman that the man left behind before he left, and then go back to the leader to cry, but Kakuzu also understood that since the man had said it to this extent, he would not give it to him again.

The leader’s face.

If he really didn't do it, he would really kill himself!

So, it’s better to listen to this song first and see if it’s difficult.

Kakuzu put on his headphones and pressed the play button.

"Following the gentle curves of the mountains and rivers..."

After the first song, I didn't know why, although the song was in a language I didn't understand, the two climax lines at the end made me feel an inexplicable sense of empathy.

And it’s the kind of empathy that makes me want to cry uncontrollably!

In short, although I don’t understand it, I don’t hate this song. Yoxi, listen to it a hundred million times!

…

Just as Kakuzu was gradually falling in love with Ten, Shinji and Minato also returned to the hotel, but...

Walking into the front hall, looking at Yuhi Kurenai who was smiling and chatting with Xianglan, Shinji was honestly a little confused.

What's going on? Could it be that just like Xiaonan, he came to me to reminisce about the past? Gan! Why didn't you come a day earlier?
