Chapter 56 Yahiko's Letter

In addition to Yahiko and Nagato, Black Zetsu was also secretly observing Bai Ye.

Yesterday, when Bai Ye suddenly approached Bai Zetsu, he was still worried whether Bai Zetsu's identity was exposed. As a result, he found that Bai Ye had planted the curse seal on all the ninjas except the Root spies, and he was relieved.

At the same time, he was secretly glad that he did not send Bai Zetsu directly, but possessed the body of the ninja. Otherwise, considering the difference between Bai Zetsu and the human body, the existence of Bai Zetsu might have been exposed.

As for Bai Ye's use of the curse seal to control his subordinates, Black Zetsu was no longer surprised.

There are many organizations and families in the ninja world that use similar methods to control their subordinates, and loose organizations like the Akatsuki organization are actually a minority.

However, after observing Bai Ye these days and reading Bai Ye's diary, Black Zetsu doubted Bai Ye's identity.

In the version circulated in the Akatsuki organization, Bai Ye is a homeless orphan who comes from an ordinary ninja family and joined the Akatsuki organization by chance.

There is no problem with the identity of an orphan, but it is impossible to be from an ordinary ninja family.

Judging from the means and talents shown by Bai Ye, Bai Ye's parents are at least jonin, and they are related to the destroyed Whirlpool Country.

Bai Ye did not join the Akatsuki organization because of luck, but the result of careful planning.

He joined the Akatsuki organization because of Nagato, because Nagato was his clansman, and the same reason was true for rescuing Karin, the purpose was to collect the Uzumaki clansmen wandering around the ninja world.

And after collecting the Uzumaki clansmen, what will Bai Ye do next?

Black Zetsu had guessed before, but after seeing Bai Ye's behavior of controlling spies with the curse seal, he was completely certain of his guess.

As a senior member of the Akatsuki organization, Bai Ye secretly cultivated private armies and colluded with foreign forces for a simple reason.

That is, Bai Ye wanted the destroyed Whirlpool Country to be rebuilt in the Rain Country. Apart from this, Black Zetsu could not think of any other possibilities.

However, it is rare for an orphan who escaped from the Whirlpool Country to be able to achieve this step now.

This reminded Black Zetsu of his experience over the past thousand years. He has been working diligently to revive his mother, and now he finally sees hope.

In this respect, he is very similar to Bai Ye.

The only difference is that no one knows his plan, while Bai Ye's plan has been known by himself. If he can grasp Bai Ye's desire to restore the country, he can gain a chess piece second only to Uchiha Madara.

In this way, even if Uchiha Madara's plan fails, he can make Bai Ye a sacrifice to revive the Ten-Tails Jinchuriki.

After all, from the perspective of blood, Bai Ye is not worse than Nagato, who is of the same clan, and he also has considerable ambitions.

However, this backup plan cannot be rushed.

If Madara finds something wrong, it will be more trouble than gain.

…

In the Land of Grass, Konoha Camp.

After Konoha won the Battle of Kannabi Bridge, the atmosphere in the camp was obviously much more relaxed.

Everyone knows that although the war between Iwagakure and the village has not ended yet, it is impossible to have a large-scale war, and it is only a matter of time before a peace agreement is signed.

However, this is for the Chunin Genin. For Jiraiya, the frontline commander, this battlefield is far from over and may be restarted at any time. He cannot be careless.

At this time, Namikaze Minato walked into the command room with Kakashi and Nohara Rin.

After seeing his disciples and grandchildren, Jiraiya put down his official duties and asked, "Minato, why are you here? Do you have any important intelligence to report?"

Minato shook his head and said, "Teacher Jiraiya, I'm not looking for you, it's someone else."

Hearing this, Jiraiya looked at Kakashi and Nohara Rin, who quickly handed over the letter in their hands and said:

"Jiraiya, this is a ninja from the Rain Country who gave it to us and said he wanted to show it to you."

"Ninja from the Rain Country?"

Jiraiya frowned, and he thought of Hanzo Salamander.

If Hanzo Salamander intervened in the war between Konoha and Iwagakure at this time, the future direction would be confusing.

However, after receiving the letter, Jiraiya smiled faintly.

Because there was a cute frog mark on the envelope, and this way of sending letters was exactly what he taught Yahiko, Konan and Nagato.

After opening the letter, Jiraiya began to read it carefully word by word, and the smile on his face became more and more overflowing.

After seeing Jiraiya's smile, Minato Namikaze said: "Teacher Jiraiya, this letter should be sent by Yahiko and others."

Jiraiya nodded slightly and said with a smile:

"Yes, I didn't expect that they would do something in the Rain Country and fulfill what I said."

"That's a good thing. The village can have another ally in the Rain Country."

Minato Namikaze also smiled.

Hearing the conversation between Jiraiya and Minato Namikaze, Kakashi and Rin Nohara frowned. They didn't know what Minato and Jiraiya were talking about.

Wasn't the letter sent by the ninja of the Hidden Rain Village?

Minato Namikaze noticed the two's confusion and quickly explained: "Kakashi, Rin, do you remember the Rain Country ninjas we met a few months ago? They also participated in the rescue of Rin later."

Kakashi and Rin certainly remember, but what does this Jiraiya-sama have to do with it?

Namikaze Minato then added: "Yahiko, Nagato and Konan, they are all disciples of Jiraiya, and they established an organization called Akatsuki in the Land of Rain."

"Akatsuki?"

Kakashi was stunned for a moment, then said: "I remember Bai Ye mentioned that he wanted to recruit me and Obito, but we refused. It turned out that it was the organization established by Jiraiya's disciples."

Memories of the past also emerged in Nohara Rin's mind:

"So, when Bai Ye reminded Obito not to step on the detonating talisman, it was also because they knew our identities?"

"I guess that's the case, otherwise they have no reason to help the ninjas from other villages..."

"Alas, Obito..."

When mentioning the past, Kakashi and Nohara Rin always inevitably mentioned Obito, and their tone was full of regret and regret.

Namikaze Minato and Jiraiya were also infected by the atmosphere and remained silent for a long time.

After a moment, Minato Namikaze said, "Let's not talk about the past. Obito is a hero on the memorial tablet. After this war is over, let's go back together to pay tribute to him."

Jiraiya was not familiar with Obito, but he also comforted Kakashi and Nohara Rin.

At this time, Kakashi seemed to remember something and asked, "By the way, Master Jiraiya, do you know Bai Ye? He seems to be the leader of this Akatsuki organization?"

"Bai Ye?" Jiraiya shook his head gently, "I don't know him, but he was mentioned many times in the letter. He should be a very interesting person, but Yahiko seemed to have a headache when he mentioned him."
