Saving Uchiha starts from being the patriarch

Chapter 397 Yahiko Nagato and Konan
Midnight,

The lights in Anbu's dungeon were dim, and the long shadows of the crowd cast obliquely on the walls and floor.

Zong Xian waved his hand, summoned the Anbu members who were in charge of guarding work, and ordered him to release Xiao Nan from the restraints on Xiao Nan's body. Xiao Nan, who was free of restraints, did not do any irrational behavior. Yahiko and Nagato attracted her full attention.

Let her go now,

She will not come out of this dungeon.

"Nagato, Konan, and Jiraiya-sensei... What's going on here?"

The young man with orange hair looked around with a dazed look on his face.

I can't understand what is going on at all?Why was Xiao Nan bound up?Why are there so many black sticks stuck in Nagato's body?What is Teacher Jiraiya doing again?If I remember correctly, I should be dead?

"Yahiko? Are you really Yahiko?"

Xiaonan murmured.

"Probably true? Although I remember that I was dead at the time." Yahiko raised his hand and scratched his cheek, not very confident.

like that,
that gesture,
that tone of voice,
It overlapped with the memories of Konan and Nagato.

In the eyes of the companions of the Akatsuki organization in the past, the leader of Yahiko is a strong, confident, and decisive leader, but only a few people such as Nagato and Konan know that Yahiko also often doubts whether his decisions are appropriate, and often suffers from insomnia. Nagato, Konan and the others had no choice but to keep cheering for Yahiko in private.

"Yahiko!!"

Xiaonan's hands were shaking.

There were thousands of words in her chest that she wanted to say, but looking at that familiar yet unfamiliar face, she couldn't utter a complete sentence, but called out her name with difficulty.

"it's me."

A warm smile appeared on Yahiko's face.

He nodded slightly towards Xiaonan.

As the true founder of the Akatsuki organization, the hero who led the Akatsuki organization to resist the tyranny of Yuyin Village at that time, Yahiko is not the kind of idiot protagonist who has no strengths other than blood. Tiredness and pain in the depths of the eyes.

Realized that in the years after his death,
Xiao Nan had a very hard life.

As for Nagato... Just look at the black stick passing across the back of the head, I think this idiot died like himself, right?Sure enough, he still couldn't escape from the hands of Sanshoyu Hanzo?Back then, Sanshoyu Hanzo caught Xiaonan and set up a trap to surround them.

At that time, Yahiko realized that he was in a desperate situation. He had to accept the request from Sanshoyu Hanzo that Konan would live if he died. Moreover, he believed that Nagato, the owner of the eye of reincarnation, would eventually become a bridge to peace, so he took the initiative to go to the die······

Just judging from the present situation,
Nagato seems to be finished with him?

In the end, only Xiaonan survived?

"Nagato, were you killed by Sansho Hanzo?" Yahiko asked aloud.

"what?"

Nagato was stunned by the question.

"Isn't it?"

Yahiko blinked suspiciously.

"No, no, I... Sansho Hanzo is dead, killed by you... I personally killed it." Nagato's tongue almost got knotted. It can be said that it was killed by Nagato, or it can be said that it died at the hands of Yahiko.

"then you?"

"Speaking of my affairs...it's quite complicated."

Nagato said with a wry smile.

in this situation,

It was also completely beyond his expectations.

"Then speak slowly."

Zong Xian interjected at this moment.

"Excuse me, is your Excellency..." Yahiko looked over curiously. He had noticed Zong Xian and Yao Shidou from the very beginning, but he didn't understand the situation, and he didn't contact each other rashly, but since Zong Xian took the initiative to talk Yes, he took advantage of the situation and asked.

"Uchiha Zongxian, now the Sixth Hokage of Konoha Village."

Zong Xian briefly introduced himself.

at the end,

He added: "Also, this is the dungeon of Muye Village. Without my permission, no outsiders will break into this place. You can talk here with confidence."

Yahiko was stunned for two seconds, and his expression suddenly became weird again.

Good guy,
Why does this situation feel more and more confusing?The Sixth Hokage... If I remember correctly, when he died, Konoha Village was still in charge of the Third Hokage known as "Ninoko". He was the teacher of Jiraiya-sensei, and he could be regarded as their teacher up.

As a result, in the blink of an eye,
Why is it the sixth generation?
The teacher next to him, Jiraiya, didn't deny it either. It didn't look like he was lying, from the third generation to the sixth generation... If Xiaonan hadn't turned into a wrinkled little old lady, it would be hard not to doubt the distance from him. Half a century has passed since death.

And the dungeon of Konoha Village?

Yahiko turned his eyes again and looked around. Even if this airtight environment is not a dungeon, it is definitely a similar place. Then why did his group appear in such a place?Combined with Xiaonan's previous situation of being restrained by a straitjacket, is he going to war with Konoha?Lost and captured?

Seeing that Zong Xian didn't intend to say anything more,
Yahiko wisely didn't ask further questions, but turned to look at Nagato and Xiaonan.

"Xiaonan, can you tell me what's going on? Also, Nagato, please tell me too! Anyway, we shouldn't be short of time." Yahiko looked around, and the medicine man's bag was very appropriate. He stretched out his hand to signal to follow, and led Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan to the jailers' offices in the dungeon.

The black stick on Nagato's body was taken off by Zong Xian.

Before, the black stick was driven into Nagato’s body to prevent Nagato from going berserk, but now that there is a limiter like Yahiko, there is no need for the black stick to restrain Nagato. No, even if the black stick is removed, Nagato The battle strength recovered, but did not attack decisively.

Instead, he followed Yahiko as obediently as Xiao Nan and walked behind Yao Shidou.

Jiraiya quietly looked at the backs of Yahiko and the others, and waited until the backs disappeared at the corner of the corridor before asking, "Zong Xian, is this your solution?"

"That's right. Since I can't convince Xiao Nan, why don't I just get someone who can convince her?"

With both hands behind his back, Zong Xian said in a leisurely tone:
"Forbidden art is not all bad. In the final analysis, forbidden art is just a prop. It is good to use it, and it is evil to use it evil. Is a sharp blade used to kill people like hemp, or to chop melons? Cutting vegetables depends on the choice of the knife holder, at least most of the forbidden techniques are like this."

at the moment,

It just looks very good.

Not in vain, he ordered Zhishui and the others to clean up the battlefield and take Payne out of the ruins. Then the pharmacist used the cells and tissues extracted from Payne's body to perform the technique of reincarnation of dirty soil to call Yahiko, who had been dead for many years, from the underworld. back.

"How are you sure that Yahiko will help you persuade Xiaonan?"

"I'm not sure."

Zong Xian shrugged indifferently, "It's best if this matter succeeds, even if it fails... I have a backup plan."

Zilai was also speechless.

Just a try?

"Of course, judging from the information I have investigated, the possibility of success is not small! Yahiko was the real spiritual core of the Akatsuki organization back then. Sanshoyu Hanzo did not hesitate to join forces with Danzo to get rid of Yahiko... Akatsuki organization It was only after Yahiko's death that it gradually deteriorated into a dangerous organization."

"...You're right, if Yahiko is okay, maybe...things won't be what they are today."

Ji Lai also let out a long sigh.

Although he believed in the past that Nagato with the eyes of reincarnation was the son of the prophecy said by the Great Toad Immortal, he could also see clearly that Yahiko is the undoubted core among the three of Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan. The talent in ninjutsu practice is the worst one, but his personality charm is not much inferior to Minato.

Nagato's faith was deeply influenced by Yahiko.

That is a position that even a teacher like him cannot replace.

Unfortunately,
Yahiko died.

Without Yahiko to illuminate the way forward, Nagato and Xiaonan went astray without looking back under the instigation of malicious people.

"If, I mean if, if Yahiko really persuaded Xiaonan to cooperate with the village? Zong Xian, what are you going to do? Do you want to annex Yuyin Village or abolish it?" Zilai also looked over, he looked at Zong Xian, pondering the thoughts of the Sixth Hokage in his heart.

Don't hesitate to spend a lot of time to do such a thing?
What exactly is it going to do?
Is it to consolidate the current status of Konoha Village?Or... is there another conspiracy?
"From now on, there is nothing worthy of my attention in Yuyin Village. Abolishing Yuyin Village is meaningless to me. However, the Land of Rain... needs a land after all. It is controlled by a powerful organization, and as a strategic location connecting the Kingdom of Wind and the Kingdom of Earth, it is a good thing that Yuyin Village is close to our Konoha."

Zong Xian said.

This is not a lie.

The reason why he did not hesitate to use the dirty soil reincarnation technique to try to win over Yuyin Village is indeed to make Yuyin Village a vassal of Konoha. On the one hand, this is to fulfill Hokage's duties, and on the other hand, it is also to facilitate his next steps. act.

Even though Yuyin Village seems to be hurting now,
But in fact, the vitality was not damaged.

Under the rule of Payne, Yuyin Village has actually lived a very good life these years, and its overall strength has also developed to a certain extent, even if it is still unable to compete with Sanjiao Hanzo, the rain that tried to become the sixth largest ninja village in its heyday. Hidden Village is comparable.

But it can be regarded as a powerful ninja village second only to the five major ninja villages.

Such an ally,
Still have some weight.

It will come in handy later...

Zong Xian thought about it for a moment, and he had a general idea of ​​what to do in the future, but it was not very clear, and it took time to sort it out. At the same time, there was still a lot of preparatory work to be done, and the things in Yuyin Village It can be regarded as one of the preparations for a rainy day.

"...that's it!"

Ji Lai also took a deep look at Zong Xian, and gave up asking.

There was no inquisition.

In any case, Zongxian is still the Sixth Hokage, so there is no need to explain everything to this old fellow, as long as it does not harm Konoha's interests, Hokage is free to do whatever he wants, rather he can move freely, It was also thanks to Zong Xian for giving him face.

otherwise,

Zong Xian can completely assign him tasks to do.

Jiraiya was also able to travel around the ninja world without losing his identity as a Konoha ninja, not because he enjoyed any privileges, but because of the acquiescence of the past Hokage, the third Hokage was his teacher, the fourth Hokage was his disciple, and the fifth Hokage It's also because of his relatives, he can be regarded as his uncle.

At the same time, Konoha at that time could not afford to lose Jiraiya.

So no one will trouble Jiraiya,
But Zong Xian is different,

There is no such ambiguous and complicated relationship between him and Jiraiya.

He can give Jiraiya the right to act freely out of the respect in his heart, but if he doesn't want to let Ziraiya have such a valuable combat power, he can also forcibly order Ziraiya to return to the village to accept orders. Hokage has This authority.

Of course, Zilai can also be disobedient,

It's just that if he really gets to that point, Zongxian can deprive Jiraiya Konoha of his ninja status. Although doing so will definitely bring Zongxian a lot of trouble, Ziraiya is also very popular in the village. As high as he is, as long as he nods, there will be a large number of people supporting him to succeed Hokage.

but,
That is the past.

Now this situation,
Zongxian is in power, and the Uchiha clan is also at its peak, so Zirai will not go to trouble with Zongxian at this time, and he has no need to trouble Zongxian. He feels sorry for Xiaonan's experience, but this It doesn't mean that he will ignore the interests of the village for the sake of Xiaonan.

"Time... a while has passed."

Zong Xian collected the thoughts in his mind, smiled and said: "Senior Ziraiya, let's go over and have a look! I wonder how the conversation between those few people is progressing? I hope they will not disappoint my expectations."

"There should be a good result."

Ji Lai also took a deep breath, and walked side by side with Zong Xian, and the two came to the office that the jailers usually use.

standing at the door,
You can feel the weird atmosphere in the room.

Nagato and Konan stood in front of Yahiko like a student of a ninja school who had made a mistake, their awkward posture was not vain, and Yahiko was sitting on a chair with a helpless bitter smile on his face, Can't help moaning and sighing.

until--

Zongxian and Jirai also came.

"This is... Yahiko, Nagato, Konan, how are you talking?"

Sensing the weird atmosphere in the office, Zilai couldn't help asking.

"Teacher Jiraiya!"

Yahiko stood up, facing Jiraiya, and said with a wry smile: "I basically understand what stupid things Nagato and Xiaonan have done in the years after my death... ” Such an argument was heard by Zi Lai and he was certain in his heart, and Yahiko did not disappoint him.

Nagato and Xiaonan heard these words,

But the spirit was like a frost-beaten eggplant, wilting down.
