Nagato replied, "I didn't expect you to remember the things that had happened such a long time ago so clearly."
Nagato was slightly emotional.
That had happened during the Second Great Ninja War, more than 20 years ago.
At that time, in order to cover up the Rinnegan and protect himself, he covered his eyes with his hair.
Unexpectedly, Orochimaru still remembered such details.
Orochimaru looked aggrieved.
He had forgotten this kind of thing.
It was only after thinking about the Rinnegan that he remembered it.
At that time, he didn't care much when he saw Nagato's red hair.
The Uzumaki clan were not the only ones with red hair.
Sunagakure's Fourth Kazekage, Rasa, also had red hair but had nothing to do with the Uzumaki clan.
What's more, even if Nagato was really a descendant of the Uzumaki clan, it had nothing to do with him.
His position in the village was not enough at that time.
Even if he really took a descendant of the Uzumaki clan back to Konoha, he would either be asked to leave him to Sarutobi Hiruzen or Danzo.
But he didn't expect that the red-haired kid who was hiding behind Yahiko actually had a Rinnegan.
Orochimaru was filled with regret.
Nagato recalled the past and said, "Time flies by so fast."
"In those days, Orochimaru, you, Jiraiya-sensei and Tsunade should have just finished fighting with Hanzo and gotten the title of Sannin when you met us."
Orochimaru's expression immediately froze.
The Sannin was just a title given to the defeated.
Back then, he had wanted to kill the three of Nagato.
Now!
Orochimaru felt the terrifying power of Nagato's Rinnegan.
The situation had completely reversed. Nagato could easily kill him.
Damn it!
He, Orochimaru, is also a well-known powerful ninja.
How can he be like this?
"By the way, what about Sasori? Was he killed?" Nagato asked.
This time, he only saw Orochimaru, but Sasori, who had gone to the Land of Fire to investigate information, was nowhere to be seen.
Compared to Orochimaru, Sasori was a member who truly had a sense of belonging to Akatsuki.
Yuta replied, "He's temporarily imprisoned in Konoha. He may be allowed to return to the Akatsuki in the future."
Anyway, Sasori has already been marked with the Flying Thunder God technique.
He can bring him anytime he wants.
"However, random killings are prohibited in the future!" Yuta said with a serious expression.
The purpose of bringing the Akatsuki under his command was to restrain this group of people who basically had Kage-level strength.
The world needs order and peace.
"I will warn them." Nagato nodded earnestly.
Before, the Akatsuki basically took any mission, even missions related to war
On the one hand, it was to make money.
On the other hand, it was to monopolize the war, and finally completely control the war in the world in the hands of the Akatsuki.
However, now the Akatsuki is under Yuta's command.
Moreover, with Yuta's strength, he can just use his strength to subdue the five great countries and establish order.
Orochimaru's eyes flickered slightly.
Yuta has subdued Nagato?
So frustrating!
When he saw the gray-brown giant before, he thought that Yuta was about to fail.
In his heart, he longed to be free again. He did not expect Nagato, who had the Rinnegan to lose like this.
"Then, next, let's establish order in the Land of Rain first."
The corners of Yuta's mouth curled, and he turned towards the direction of Amegakure.
He mockingly said, "I heard that Hanzo never leaves his place in Amegakure."
"How dare he be called a demigod with such cowardice?"
Nagato's eyes flickered slightly, but he had no objection.
He once respected Hanzo, thinking that Hanzo worked hard to support Amegakure during the Second Great Ninja War.
But now, Hanzo had completely disappointed him.
After betraying the First Generation Akatsuki, Hanzo completely gave up on himself.
He huddled in Amegakure all day long and arranged guards around him 24/7.
Other than that, he only arranged other people to search for the Akatsuki and did nothing else.
He also ignored the various evil deeds of the ninjas in Amegakure.
Nagato looked at Yuta and said, "I used to worry that if I killed Hanzo rashly, Konoha, Iwagakure or Sunagakure might make a move, so I didn't do it."
"However, now there's no need to worry about that."
Although he was forced to acknowledge Yuta as the leader of the Akatsuki, and he was a little uncomfortable, he had to admit that having someone even stronger above him gave him the confidence to act freely.
Now, even if he goes to kill Hanzo, would Onoki of Iwagakure, Rasa of Sunagakure dare to make a move?
Outside Amegakure
A group of four—Yuta, Nagato, Konan, and Orochimaru arrived at the village.
Dark clouds covered the sky, and it had been raining for an unknown amount of time.
Nagato faced the sky and raised his arms.
"Shinra Tensei!"
A ferocious repulsive force erupted, avoiding the buildings below and hitting the dark clouds in the sky with precision.
In an instant, the dark clouds shattered under the violent force.
The raindrops were swept away by the repulsive force, and flew into the distance together with the scattered dark clouds.
For the first time in a long while, sunlight shone onto the village.
Orochimaru's expression remained unchanged, but inwardly, he was speechless.
With this kind of strength, Nagato would hardly need to put in any effort to kill him.
"It's going to be troublesome if the movement is so big."
Orochimaru sensed the panic in Amegakure and said hoarsely.
"It's just Amegakure. Directly break in."
Yuta activated Kagura Mind Eye and sensed the chakra in Amegakure.
He noice that not many had reached the level of Jōnin.
Among them, there was a particularly strong chakra that was estimated to be at the peak of Kage-level.
That must be Hanzo.
There were dozens of ninja chakra signatures around him. They were most likely Hanzo's guards.
Snap!
Yuta put his hands together and shouted.
"Wood release: Deep Forest Emergence!"
Boom!
Tall trees erupted from the ground, covering the entirety of Amegakure.
The branches of the trees attacked the ninjas in Amegakure and bound them as i they had eyes.
"Just a bunch of rubbish." Yuta pouted.
Most of the ninjas in Amegakure failed to resist and were quickly restrained by the massive trees.
"Go in directly and kill Hanzo."
Having said that, Yuta took the lead and walked toward Amegakure.
