Chapter 58: Ninja Is More Cost-Effective

"Why hasn't Jiraiya replied yet? Did something happen?"

A few days later, in the Akatsuki office, Yahiko, who had not received a reply for a long time, had such doubts in his heart.

But soon, Yahiko threw this bold idea behind his mind.

Jiraiya is one of the three ninjas of Konoha. His performance in the war is not inferior to the five shadows. He is one of the top ninjas in the ninja world. Even if the Akatsuki organization is destroyed, Jiraiya will not be in trouble?

Could it be that Jiraiya didn't receive the letter? But Konan clearly handed the letter to Kakashi.

Kakashi is a disciple of Minato Namikaze and a jonin of Konoha. He should be able to see Jiraiya. Maybe the war with Iwagakure involved too much of the teacher's energy and he didn't have time to reply.

Thinking of this, Yahiko convinced himself and didn't take it to heart.

As the leader of the Akatsuki organization, he has a lot of work to deal with every day. In addition to reviewing documents on a daily basis, he also has to care about his subordinates in various departments, and even has to deliberately squeeze out time for practice.

Instead of wasting time thinking about why the teacher didn't reply, it's better to take time to see him.

But that will have to wait until the war is over. With the current situation in various countries, it is really difficult for him and Jiraiya to meet, and it is easy for someone with ulterior motives to use him.

Retracting his gradually divergent thoughts, Yahiko stood by the window and looked at the scenery in the distance.

Ever since Bai Ye gathered spies under his banner and established the Akatsuki organization's Anbu, the Akatsuki organization base has begun to build a large-scale construction, not only cutting down the surrounding forests, but also building canals and smooth roads.

Let the Akatsuki organization base, which was originally only the size of a village, gradually evolve into a town.

However, Yahiko thinks that the term Anbu is a bit inappropriate. Anbu is the abbreviation of the assassination special forces, and the Anbu under Bai Ye is more like a prisoner of war camp, squeezing the spies who sneak into the organization in various ways.

For this kind of behavior, Yahiko can still tolerate it.

Bai Ye's side.

After several weeks of hard life, this group of Anbu members gradually came to their senses. Bai Ye asked them to open up wasteland and cultivate land and build infrastructure, not to torture them to obtain intelligence.

They simply treated him like a free cow and horse, and worked hard in the mountains.

After knowing this, many members of the Anbu began to slack off. They deliberately only used four or five points when they had ten points of strength, and even quietly rested when Bai Ye was taking a nap.

Among this group of people, the only exception was Bai Zetsu.

As a vegetative person, Bai Zetsu can survive only by photosynthesis. When working, he is very hard and has no idea what fatigue is.

Except for being a bit talkative, he is basically a perfect labor force.

The other members of the Anbu looked at Bai Zetsu sweating like rain, and they were so angry that they gnashed their teeth. Brother, don't forget that you are also a spy, so why are you so stubborn?

Could it be that you are actually a spy sent by Bai Ye to infiltrate the spy group?

After a busy day, Bai Ye moved the juvenile book on his face, looked at the Anbu members under him, stretched his waist and said:

"Let me see, how did you complete your work tasks today?"

Hearing Bai Ye's lazy tone, the Anbu members nodded repeatedly.

When facing Bai Ye, they were all angry but dared not speak. They were tired, but their lives were more important than hard work.

Moreover, as spies, they worked 24 hours a day for fear of exposing their identities.

Now that their identities as spies have been exposed, they have accepted their fate and no longer need to worry. Anyway, resistance is useless.

Not to mention that Bai Ye used the curse seal to control their life and death, even if he didn't, they couldn't beat him.

The intelligence they received was all false. Bai Ye was not a Chunin kid close to Jonin. His strength was at least elite Jonin, and he could be a small high-level person in the major ninja villages.

Bai Ye flew into the sky, inspected the construction site, and nodded with satisfaction.

The productivity of ninjas is indeed extraordinary. Even when they are lazy, they are dozens of times stronger than ordinary people. No wonder the chakra ninja tools have not yet been popularized in the ninja world.

It's not that chakra ninja tools are unaffordable, but that ninjas are more cost-effective.

After flying back to the ground, Bai Ye brought the Anbu members to the training ground. While distributing today's food, he also gave these people paper and pens.

After seeing the pen and paper, the faces of the Anbu members changed slightly.

Bai Ye had been disguising himself for several weeks, and now he was finally going to show his true colors. However, the experiences of these days were not enough to make them betray their respective ninja villages.

They were all ninjas with faith, and even if they died, they would never betray their ninja villages.

Bai Ye took in the expressions of the Anbu members. He really looked down on the information in their heads. To be frank, if he really wanted to get information, he could just go to Nagato.

Nagato's interrogation method was very environmentally friendly, and he could directly extract the soul for questioning.

It was just a bit life-wasting.

Moreover, judging from the amount of chakra and level of these people, they might not know as much about the secrets of their respective ninja villages as he did, so there was no need to get any information at all.

After a moment of silence, Bai Ye's cold voice sounded:

"Our Akatsuki organization is a humane organization. It has been two weeks since you arrived. It's time to write to your families to report... safety."

Hearing this, the Anbu members were stunned.

Bai Ye was not interrogating them, but asking them to pass on information to the village and complete their mission of infiltrating the Akatsuki organization.

But during the days they infiltrated the Akatsuki organization, they worked and slept.

There is no place to get intelligence. If they are asked to write, they don’t know what to write. Besides, will the content of their letters really not be changed by Bai Ye?

They even have such doubts in their hearts.

Bai Ye gave them this opportunity so that they can work harder for Akatsuki for a few more days. After all, many of them have their own weaknesses in the village besides Bai Ye’s curse.

Bai Ye saw what these people were thinking and continued:

“Don’t worry, I won’t read your letters or make any changes. Akatsuki and the major ninja villages are not enemies. We just want to stay safely in the territory of the Rain Country and protect ordinary people in the territory.”

“These days, you have also observed Akatsuki and know that we have no ill intentions.”

Seeing Bai Ye’s direct showdown, the members of the Anbu showed helpless expressions. After looking at each other, they began to write mission reports.

Whether they would be intercepted or not, they really wanted to let their superiors know what they were experiencing.

It would be best if the village could come to rescue them. If not, it would also be a reminder to the later ones that although Akatsuki was just established, it has the ability to identify spies.

However, they were somewhat unsure as to whether Akatsuki had any ambitions.
