Naruto's water escape is the strongest

Pain placed the body of the two-tailed jinchuriki, Yuukito, on the ground.

"Okay, let's get started"

He glanced indifferently at the Akatsuki members present and said calmly.

"Why is it so slow?" The Red Sand Scorpion stood on the index finger of the Heretic Golem and said impatiently, "I still have a new puppet to complete. Haven't the two-tailed Jinchuuriki been captured long ago?"

Scorpion did not appear in the image of Hiryu Ko's ghost-faced monster. After the old one was shattered by Haruno Sakura's punch, he simply showed his true face.

That's the look of a cute young lady.

Because he had made himself a puppet, the expression and eyes on Xie's face would not change, and he would always maintain a calm and calm look, but his impatience could be heard in his tone.

What the Red Sand Scorpion hates most is waiting for others.

"Because the Kumo ninja sealed the border and carried out a large-scale manhunt, it took Kakuzu and the others a lot of time to bring back the Jinchuriki's body." Pain glanced at Scorpion and replied calmly.

"Hmph," Hidan snorted dissatisfiedly, "It's not because that guy from Kakuzu insisted on using this body to collect the bounty for assassinating the Two-Tailed Jinchuuriki that our whereabouts were almost exposed. Discovered by Yun Nin and others."

"Shut up, idiot"

Kakuzu glared at his partner next to him with his cloudy little eyes.

"Because of the recent actions that have been very frequent, Akatsuki's expenses are very large, and there are already signs of being unable to make ends meet. As a member in charge of Akatsuki's finances, I must increase revenue and reduce expenditures, and I must not let go of any small income. Not to mention, the bounty of the second-tailed Jinchuuriki is... A lot of money”

"Is it because of this stupid reason that you made me wait for so many days in vain?" Xie's eyes narrowed slightly.

Murderous aura quietly filled this sealed space.

Relationships and relationships between Scorpios are quite bad, and one of the important reasons is because this kind of thing happens frequently.

The more important reason is that

"Last time you and I snatched Deidara's body, I haven't settled it with you yet," Xie said coldly. He slowly raised his hand, his chakra condensed dangerously, "We might as well settle it together."

Kakudu turned his head, his yellow eyes narrowed, and his eyes became cold and sinister.

"You just took Deidara's heart. Your capacity is really small." He sneered and said sarcastically, "Or, you are tired of living an immortal life as a puppet. If you get impatient, you want to die. , just attack it, you little guy who hides his head but shows his tail."

Although he is an old ninja who has lived for more than 90 years, Kakuzu still has a very bad temper and does not tolerate provocation.Regarding the harsh words of a rising star like Xie, he didn't care at all about the nominal friendship between the two. He lowered his hands quietly, secretly gathering chakra and getting ready for battle.

He even made plans to kill Scorpion on the spot.

He has been coveting Scorpion's heart that can produce huge amounts of chakra for a long time.

And this greedy gaze is the essential reason why the relationship between the two is so tense.

The earth-shattering civil war is about to break out.

The other members of Akatsuki stood silently aside, watching the fight between the two indifferently, without any intention of stopping.

In the eyes of most members of Akatsuki, these people present may not be worthy of the word "companions", so they have no idea of ​​stopping this.The fight between two scumbags with blood on their hands and countless murders was just a dog-eat-dog show, and it didn't matter who died.

At least in the hearts of Pain, Konan, Uchiha Obito, Hidan, and Uchiha Itachi, they all have clear goals, for something that is false, ethereal, empty, stupid, or Or act out of a beautiful and dreamy future, righteousness and faith.

Killing and cruelty are just their methods, not killing for the sake of killing.

In this sense, their level and capabilities are much higher than the two ninjas who only want to live forever for themselves.

And the only ones who would treat Akatsuki members as

The person who was my companion had died not long ago at the hands of Haruno Sakura.

"That's enough." Payne finally shouted to stop the fight between the two. "After all, you are still members of the same organization. Even if you don't treat each other as companions, don't do such stupid behavior in front of me."

The leader's scolding made the two angrily stop their ninjutsu, which was ready to explode at any time.

"Okay, I'll spare your life first," Kakuzu said with a stern face as he suppressed his anger.

"Humph" Xie snorted coldly and retracted his hands that were quietly forming seals.

Even though everything was almost indifferent to him, he still had to care about Payne's will.

In recent years, the Red Sand Scorpion has gradually realized the problem of making himself a puppet.The puppet's body is cold, so his thoughts slowly become colder and colder, becoming more and more dehumanized.

He is also losing more and more vitality.

Being a puppet is certainly close to immortality to a certain extent, but a stone can live for millions and tens of millions of years. Is such immortality meaningful?

No wonder the predecessors forbade the puppet master to completely transform himself into a puppet. He once thought it was stupidity, but now Scorpion knows that there is wisdom in it.

Scorpio gradually found that his thinking was getting closer and closer to stone: he was not interested in anything, he no longer cared about anything, and his inner lake was like a dry and hard stone, unable to make any waves.Only battles, fierce battles, only things involving puppets, and only recalling the scenes when he was a human being, especially the scenes when his parents were alive, can make him feel like a man. Live like a human being.

Just like the fight with that girl before.

"Pity."

Scorpion withdrew his hostile eyes.

He knew that this battle could never be fought no matter what.

It also meant that an event that could have made him feel alive was cancelled.

Since the last battle with that girl, Xie had never encountered a suitable opponent who could excite him, and he hadn't had the feeling of fighting on the edge of life and death with his heart beating violently for a long time.Kakuzu would have been a suitable opponent, but it's a pity that the situation is not right now.

Payne looked at Scorpion with a pair of emotionless reincarnation eyes.

He vaguely felt that something was wrong with Xie's mood.

Scorpion's chakra is still huge and pure, but its texture changes year by year, becoming more and more dry, cold, hard, and lacking in vitality.

Kakuzu was right, there was something wrong with Scorpion's thinking and he wanted to die.

It's not that he's seeking death, like committing suicide, but that Scorpio gradually can't find the meaning of living.

After the noisy junior and partner died, Xie's side became much quieter, desolate and lonely.When Deidara was alive, he shouted "Art is explosion" every day. He used to find it very annoying and completely contrary to his eternal ideals, but now Scorpio slowly understands him.

Just like fireworks, after a violent explosion, you are shattered into pieces and turned into a gorgeous and dazzling fireworks. It is also very beautiful, right?

He made Deidara into a puppet and kept it beside him.

Deidara's combat power was an excellent complement to Scorpion, who had suffered heavy losses after the battle with the girl.

But in a certain deep meaning, Scorpion did not let Deidara witness the idea that he turned into an explosive firework and left the world brilliantly in a fierce battle.

Art may not be eternal.

But beauty that is as fleeting as the blooming cherry blossoms.

Of course Payne could not have imagined that Scorpio's inner world would have such a powerful desire to look back, and no matter how strong it was, it would not be possible to see through a person's heart.He only discovered Scorpio's problem based on his sensitive intuition.

Payne said nothing and watched silently as the two regained their composure and restraint.

"Before we begin, let me tell you some bad news." After a long time, he said slowly.

"In the previous battle to capture the Seven-Tails Jinchuuriki, Kisame Inegaki died unfortunately."

First more.
