For someone who can face Hanzo without changing his expression and remain calm, it is no wonder that Hanzo would praise him in his heart.

It's not that Hanzo is so arrogant, but because there are really not many people in the ninja world who can face him so close and remain unmoved.

Just talking about this kind of character, it is rare in the entire ninja world.

It is not without reason that the Akatsuki organization can develop to this point.

"I have seen your proposal. Peace is indeed the unity of all forces. I hope to use your strength to negotiate with the Kingdom of Wind, the Kingdom of Earth and the Kingdom of Fire respectively, and use you as the axis to unite the Kingdom of Rain.

Save yourself from this war.

I am not young anymore, and the Kingdom of Rain will still need ambitious young people like you in the future."

Hearing Hanzo's words, the members of the Akatsuki organization behind Yahiko all had smiles on their faces.

Once Yahiko becomes the leader of Amegakure Village, they will ascend to heaven and become the official ninjas of Amegakure Village, and they will no longer have to live a homeless life.

However, Yahiko was not dazzled by this joy.

He won't be happy about it until everything is over and the dust has settled.

He extended his hand to Hanzo and said, "In that case, I hope we can have a happy cooperation."

Looking at Yahiko's outstretched hand, Hanzo suddenly had a thought in his mind.

Dare to shake hands with yourself?

If we can seize the opportunity to subdue him in one fell swoop, the Akatsuki organization will not be able to stir up much trouble.

But soon, Hanzo banished this thought from his mind.

He can subdue Yahiko in an instant.

He has this certainty.

But behind Yahiko, there are more than a dozen ninjas from the Akatsuki organization. Once he attacks, there is no guarantee that these ninjas will jump over the wall in a panic. He himself will be fine by then, but the rain ninjas behind him will definitely be killed or injured.

It would be fine if they were just ordinary rain ninjas, but these rain ninjas brought out this time were all elites. Losing any one of them would make him feel distressed.

Since there is a safer way, why do you have to fight with these Akatsuki organization ninjas?

So, after Hanzo hesitated for a moment, he stretched out his hand and held it with Yahiko's.

It wasn't until this moment that Yahiko's eyebrows showed a hint of joy.

Behind Yahiko, Nagato and Konan, as well as many ninjas in the Akatsuki organization, also relaxed their vigilance a little.

"Let's go back and discuss the detailed cooperation method with the internal members before finalizing it," Hanzo suggested.

Hearing this, although Yahiko wanted to finalize this matter now, he also knew that this was not a small matter after all and he could not make a hasty decision.

He nodded and said, "This is best."

Hanzo also nodded, waved to the rain ninja behind him, turned around and left directly.

He was not prepared at all whether Yahiko and others would launch a sneak attack from behind, because from the look in Yahiko's eyes just now, he could see that the other party was a young man with a useless sense of justice in his heart, and he would never do anything behind his back.

It's a sneak attack.

As he expected, Yahiko and others did not move until he was about to disappear at the edge of the basin.

Looking at Hanzo who was about to leave, Yahiko finally fully expressed the joy in his heart on his face.

He turned to Nagato and said: "Nagato, if the cooperation with Hanzo is really successful, then our first step is to quell the war in the Land of Rain. After that, it is time to spread our ideas throughout the world.

"

At this time, Yahiko seemed to be in high spirits.

"Um."

Nagato nodded heavily, his ideal was very simple, it became Yahiko's strength to help him achieve what he wanted.

Looking at these two teenagers, a smile appeared on Xiao Nan's face.

In fact, her ideal is simpler than Nagato's, which is to protect the two of them and become the last harbor for these two men.

However, just when they were expressing their ideals and lowering their inner vigilance to a minimum, a black shadow suddenly emerged from the soil next to them, and its target was Yahiko, the leader of the organization.

"careful!"

The speed of this black shadow was so fast that the only one who could react was Xiao Nan, who had the strongest perception among the people. She screamed in surprise.

Noticing that the target of this black shadow was Yahiko, Konan almost did not hesitate and appeared in front of him.

Yahiko and Nagato also reacted a little slowly at this moment.

However, their reaction was still a little late after all.

If they had been vigilant enough from the beginning, they might have been able to respond. Unfortunately, Hanzo's words and Hanzo's departure made a tight string in their hearts loosen.

Just as they thought that the opponent's target was Yahiko, the soul of the Akatsuki organization, even Yahiko himself put on a defensive posture.

However, he saw that the black shadow suddenly changed its target. Under Xiaonan's horrified eyes, he neatly grabbed Xiaonan's hands and subdued him.

At this time, Yahiko and Nagato realized that the opponent's target was not Yahiko from the beginning, but Yahiko as a target and instantly subdued Konan who came to rescue.

"Konan!" Seeing Konan being controlled, Yahiko and Nagato exclaimed. They didn't expect that their most important companion would be kidnapped in front of their eyes.

"Who are you?!"

Yahiko forced himself to calm down, and at the same time reached out to hold Nagato beside him, telling him not to act rashly.

The moment Xiaonan was subdued by the opponent, the two of them no longer had the ability to resist.

Looking at the cat-faced masks the other party wore, Yahiko and Nagato couldn't help but feel cold light bursting out of their eyes.

Toneri grabbed Xiaonan's hands, jumped up onto the rocks next to him, looked at the two of them coldly, and said nothing.

At the same time, after Toneri jumped onto the basin, a figure that had disappeared reappeared on the rocks high in the basin. It was Hanzo the Sanshouyu who pretended to leave to lower their vigilance.

Immediately afterwards, figures appeared one after another on the edge of the rocks above the basin, almost surrounding the entire basin.

Seeing the many ninjas appearing, Yahiko and Nagato instantly understood what was going on.

This was a trap set by Hanzo for them, and they foolishly jumped into it themselves.

Hanzo lowered his head and glanced contemptuously at Yahiko and Nagato, who were a little flustered and nervous, and then looked at Toneri who was standing directly opposite him over the basin holding Konan, and couldn't help but frown.

According to the plan, the only female member of the Akatsuki organization should be under his control, but for some unknown reason, this root ninja held the female Akatsuki organization member hostage and jumped to the rocks in the basin opposite him.

He didn't know whether this was Danzo's intention or the root member's own choice.

However, he obviously doesn't have much time to pay attention to this now. At least for now, Xiaonan is in their hands, which is enough.

"Hanzo!"

When things have evolved to this point, no matter how stupid you are, you should understand what is going on.

This time, he really led everyone in the Akatsuki organization into a crisis that they shouldn't have entered.

Yahiko's heart was full of bitterness.

Especially for Xiaonan, who was held hostage, he couldn't help but feel guilty.

"Why? Hanzo! Why is this?!"

Nagato clenched his fists and asked, he couldn't understand why the final thing turned out like this.

"Why? Instead of asking me why I did this, why don't you ask yourselves why you are so naive?

Peace? If such a thing exists, then why do we need ninjas?" Hanzo said with a sneer.

"Then what you promised us before! What you promised us! When you said you would bring the Kingdom of Rain to peace, were they all lies?" Yahiko couldn't help but roared.

"Haha - they are really a bunch of brats, with such innocent child-like thoughts.

What does it have to do with me whether the Kingdom of Rain is peaceful or not? If the territory of the Kingdom of Rain can be made larger and the resources more abundant through war, then why not provoke a war in the ninja world?" Hanzo's tone was still calm.

, but the voice is a little cold.

He used to be such a young man full of innocent ideals.

But the cruel reality sank and shattered his ideals time and time again, ravaging his ideals before throwing them to the ground and trampling on his feet.

Therefore, he simply does not believe in peace that can be obtained through words.

If peace can be achieved by just talking, then why do you need fists? Why does everyone still practice chakra?

The cold words blended into the icy rain, hitting Yahiko and Nagato, and also soaked into their hearts.

At this moment, their hands and feet were cold.

Hanzo sneered and took out a kunai from his ninja bag and threw it in front of the two of them, placing a colder choice in front of them.

"The existence of your Akatsuki organization is an obstacle to me, so if you don't want that girl to die, then as the leader, Yahiko, you must die here.

The red-haired one over there, use this to kill Yahiko.

Move quickly! As long as you kill him, I will let you and this girl live."

After hearing Hanzo's words, Nagato and Konan's eyes widened.

"No! No! No!" Xiaonan, who was restrained by Toneri, struggled wildly, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't break free.
