Rain Village.

The rain continued to fall, and occasional pedestrians passed through Rain Village streets. The entire village looked bleak.

At the center of the village was a tall building made of metal in a slightly dark room.

"Cough, cough, cough."

A violent cough came from the darkness. The cough awakened a blue-haired beauty sleeping on the cold metal wall, and her face was full of fatigue.

"Nagato, are you alright?"

"Cough, cough, cough, cough..."

Nagato stood on the simple control panel controlling Payne and coughed, unable to speak.

"Nagato, don't control the Tendo yet. Your body..."

"It's fine..."

Fresh blood dripped from the corner of Nagato's mouth. There was a terrifying wound on his chest. The wound was round about twenty centimeters or so. The flesh on the wound's surface had rotted, and there seemed to be living things surging inside.

A Tier 4 contractor left this behind to Nagato before he died, almost taking Nagato's life.

Even if Nagato was still alive, his body was getting weaker daily. His already dark red hair was starting to turn pale. Out of the six, he could only control three simultaneously.

"Really... no problem?"

Konan's eyes were full of worry. She had looked for many medical Ninjas, but unfortunately, these medical Ninjas were helpless. Only one person could save Nagato, and that was the fifth Hokage.

But even if Tsunade was willing to save him, whether Nagato would accept it was still a problem.

"Konan, how is the situation of the organization recently?"

The reason why Nagato didn't show up was that the current Nagato was in a coma. If Tendo suddenly fell in front of the members of the Akatsuki organization, things would be bad. The organization respected the strong.

"It's okay."

Konan sighed. Just as she was thinking about something, Nagato narrowed his eyes.

"A member has entered the Rain Village. Yes, Byakuya."

"Byakuya?"

Konan frowned. She did not have a good impression of Su Xiao.

Su Xiao's image in Konan's heart was that he had an unknown view of good and evil, was full of blood and would kill people if he did not agree.

"What did he come back for? Could it be that he wants to join the plan of catching the eight tails? His goal is indeed the tailed-beasts, and the tail-beasts he captured are all very abnormal."

"The matter of the eight tails has been entrusted to Madara. We don't need to interfere."

"Nagato, this..."

"You don't need to say anything. See Byakuya. Although his goal is the tailed beasts, he is trustworthy. At least he is much more trustworthy than Itachi and Deidara."

"Yes."

Konan walked to the room.

...

Su Xiao walked on the street of Mist Village. He wore a raincoat. After looking around, he entered a restaurant.

This was the largest restaurant in the Rain Village. Although the Rain Village was separated from Zetsu, tens of thousands of people lived here. With the financial support of the Akatsuki organization, the Rain Village was not poor. At least everyone had no problem with food and clothing, and there was no need to worry about war.

The Rain Village was a paradise in the Naruto world. Living here did not need to worry about starving, nor did they need to worry about war. They had the protection of 'God.' Although they could not freely enter and exit, no one wanted to leave.

Not poor and not rich. It seemed to be heavily guarded, but it was very stable. Even compared to the residents of the Fire Country, the happiness of the residents here was also very high. Except for the rain every day, everything was still fine.

Su Xiao sat in the restaurant. The residents of the Rain Country, regardless of gender, age or age, had the habit of drinking or eating spicy food. It rained all year round, and the humidity was too heavy. If not appropriate to drink or eat spicy food, rheumatism was unavoidable.

Su Xiao took a breath. The food was too spicy, but the taste was excellent.

On the side, Bobowang rolled his eyes because of the spiciness, but he could not resist the temptation of delicious food. He ate three big bowls with tears in his eyes.

The door of the restaurant was pushed open. Xiao Nan walked into the restaurant straight to Su Xiao, sitting opposite him.

Konan's clothes were wet from the rain.

The rain dripped down the blue hair.

Su Xiao just looked at Konan and continued enjoying the delicious food. Although it was spicy, the delicious food could not be resisted. The spicy fish in the Rain Country was famous, and its reputation was on top of the ramen.

"Is there something important coming back this time?"

Konan spoke. Su Xiao still kept eating, which made her frown.

Su Xiao once thought that Konan was a 'Support.' Not until she almost exploded to death did everyone know this sister was not 'Support.'

"Is the leader injured?"

Su Xiao's words made Konan's heart tighten.

"Light injuries have been recovered."historical

"Suddenly falling to the ground, the unconscious is also a light injury?"

Su Xiao picked up the ice water beside his hand and drank a big mouthful. Bobowang moved to the side, meaning to leave some for Ben Wang.

Konan looked at the ice in the cup doubtfully. How could there be ice in the Rain Village?

"Chief... injured, why did you come back this time?" Xiao Nan weighed this sentence in his heart, and from Su Xiao's many performances, it could be seen that although he had ideas about tailed beasts, it was still credible in general.

Su Xiao offended too many forces. This was also the reason why he did something to tailed beasts. The long door still did not turn against him. This kind of 'loyalty' subordinates was hard to find.

Compared to Itachi, Deidara and others, Nagato trusted Su Xiao more. Su Xiao did not hesitate to do the task. He killed whoever the target was.

"Have you seen the medical ninja?"

"I have seen it. The situation is not good, but it is not too bad."

Konan sighed. After thinking for a moment, she took out a sealed glass tube with a yellow bug inside.

"Have you seen this kind of bug?"

Su Xiao put down his chopsticks, wiped his hands, and took the glass tube.

"This should be the egg of a parasitic creature, not an insect. In the absence of a host, the life of this thing is extremely short. According to preliminary judgment, this parasitic creature is magnetic and not a male or female. If it were a male or female, the leader would have been killed by this thing. Therefore, this egg will not hatch and only absorb the host's vitality. After one to two weeks, the egg will die on its own."

Alchemy Pharmaceutics contained a large number of biology, and it had a level 20 Alchemy Pharmaceutics, which allowed Su Xiao to judge the characteristics of most creatures.

"This..."

Konan's heart began to beat faster. Su Xiao's characteristics were the same as the characteristics of this' worm. '

"You... Do you have a way to solve it?"

Konan seemed to have made up her mind. It was impossible not to make up her mind. In the current state of Nagato, she could hold on for half a month.

"I am not sure. It depends on the physique of the leader. If the physique is not strong enough, he will die. If I am informed of the parasitism's first moment, taking out the parent body is not too difficult."

Putting down the glass tube in his hand, Su Xiao felt something was wrong. Nagato could not die. Otherwise, the main mission would face the possibility of failure. It was not reliable to expect Obito and others to attack Konoha. Moreover, the main mission was to go to Konoha with Nagato. Nagato's death might even cause the mission to fail directly.

"Come with me."

Konan got up. Su Xiao did not say anything and just followed Konan.

Five minutes later, Konan stood in front of the room where Nagato was. Tendo stood motionless at the door, and Nagato was unconscious again.

"Leader, what is this?"

Su Xiao went up and down look at. It was necessary to play dumb.

"Come in. You can't tell anyone what you see later. This is the trust between Nagato and me, although we have no choice."

Konan did not say anything beautiful. She just pushed open the room.

A faint smell came, and Su Xiao saw the long door in the room that had been unconscious at a glance.

The long door stood on the device that controlled Payne. The wound on his chest was seriously rotten, and a mysterious creature was squirming inside.
