Chapter 294 - Chapter 296

After returning to Konoha, Uchiha Fugaku first went to the Hokage Building.

He needed to know what happened during the time he was away, whether there was anything major, and whether there was anything that needed to be dealt with urgently.

"Hokage-sama, during the time you were away, two major events occurred in the Ninja World."

Uzuki Yugao had already recorded the major events that occurred during Uchiha Fugaku's absence.

As soon as she saw Uchiha Fugaku return, she immediately reported to Uchiha Fugaku.

"Two major events?"

Uchiha Fugaku's face was solemn.

He had only been away from Konoha for a few days, and during this period, two major events actually occurred in the Ninja World.

"The first major event was that the Hidden Mist Village was attacked by the Akatsuki Organization, and the Fourth Mizukage was captured by the leader of the Akatsuki Organization, Pain, and his life or death is currently unknown."

Uzuki Yugao said in a serious voice.

"The Hidden Mist Village was indeed attacked."

Uchiha Fugaku nodded slightly.

He had some guesses about the attack on the Hidden Mist Village, after all, he had seen the Fourth Mizukage fall into Nagato's hands.

Moreover, in order to prevent the Three-Tails from falling into the hands of the Akatsuki organization, he even used the power of Hidan to curse the Fourth Mizukage.

"Hokage-sama has already known that the Hidden Mist Village was attacked?"

Hearing Uchiha Fugaku say this, Uzuki Yugao was surprised.

"During the process of arresting the Five-Tails this time, we accidentally met the leader of the Akatsuki organization, Pain, who was holding the Fourth Mizukage in his hand, whose life or death was unknown."

Uchiha Fugaku explained, and then asked.

"What are the casualties of the Hidden Mist Village?"

"It was severely damaged, and the casualties were extremely huge."

Uzuki Yugao replied.

The Hidden Mist Village suffered a heavy blow, which was not beyond Uchiha Fugaku's expectations. With Nagato's hatred for the five major ninja villages, it was inevitable that he would take heavy measures against the Hidden Mist Village.

"What is the other big thing?"

Uchiha Fugaku asked.

"The Takigakure Village was attacked and destroyed by the Wood Release ninja and another member of the Akatsuki organization, and the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki Fu was captured and his life or death is unknown."

Uzuki Yugao hurriedly said.

"The Seven-Tails Jinchuriki was also captured."

Uchiha Fugaku raised his eyebrows.

Judging from the situation before he left, it was unlikely that Nagato would be able to successfully capture the Three-Tails.

Although he prevented the Akatsuki from capturing the Three-Tails, the Seven-Tails fell into the hands of the Akatsuki.

Together with the Four-Tails, the Two-Tails, and the Six-Tails, four Tailed Beasts have fallen into the hands of the Akatsuki.

Nearly half of the Tailed Beasts have fallen into the hands of the Akatsuki, and the Akatsuki's plan to capture the Tailed Beasts is almost halfway completed. This is definitely not a good thing.

Swish—

Suddenly, an Anbu ninja quickly entered the office and knelt on one knee.

"Hokage, there is an emergency call from the Sand Village."

While speaking, he held a scroll with a striking red mark in his hands.

Uzuki Yugao hurried forward, took the scroll with a striking red mark, and handed it to Uchiha Fugaku.

Uchiha Fugaku took the scroll, opened it, and deciphered the text in it. His face quickly became serious.

He looked at Uzuki Yugao and said.

"Just a few hours ago, the Sand Village was also attacked by the Akatsuki organization, and the One-Tail Jinchuriki Gaara, the son of the Fourth Kazekage, was captured."

"The One-Tail Jinchuriki was also captured?"

Uzuki Yugao's face was solemn.

The Akatsuki organization actually attacked the Kirigakure Village, Takigakure Village, and the Sand Village successively and captured the Three-Tails Jinchuriki, the Seven-Tails Jinchuriki, and the One-Tail Jinchuriki.

"The Sand Village asked Konoha for help, hoping that Konoha could send an elite team to participate in the search and rescue of the One-Tail Jinchuriki Gaara."

Uchiha Fugaku continued.

"Hokage, the Sand Village is an ally of Konoha, and has always had a friendly relationship with Konoha over the years. I think Konoha should send a search and rescue team to participate in the search and rescue of the One-Tail Jinchuriki Gaara."

Uzuki Yugao thought for a moment and said.

"The reason why the Sand Village has been friendly to Konoha over the years is not because the Sand Village is an ally of Konoha, but because Konoha is stronger than the Sand Village, so the Sand Village dare not show hostility."

Uchiha Fugaku shook his head and corrected Uzuki Yugao's point of view.

"Hokage-sama means that Konoha will not participate in the search and rescue of Gaara, the One-Tail Jinchuriki?"

Uzuki Yugao asked, somewhat surprised by Uchiha Fugaku's opinion.

"No, Konoha will send a team to participate in the search and rescue, but it is not because of the alliance between Konoha and the Sand Village, but to prevent the Akatsuki organization from obtaining the Tailed Beast."

Uchiha Fugaku said.

"Which Kage-level ninjas are currently not on a mission?"

"The only Kage-level ninja who is currently not on a mission is Kakashi."

Uzuki Yugao replied.

"Only one person?"

Uchiha Fugaku frowned.

The Akatsuki organization always acts in pairs. If there are no two Kage-level leaders, then the action will be more dangerous.

He looked at the Anbu ninjas in the office except him and Uzuki Yugao.

"Go to the mission office to confirm whether Might Guy has any mission now?"

The Anbu ninja responded and hurriedly left to the mission office downstairs. He quickly returned and reported.

"Hokage-sama, Might Guy has no mission at the moment."

"Let Hatake Kakashi and Might Guy lead the team as captain and vice-captain, select twelve elite ninjas, and rush to the rescue."

Uchiha Fugaku nodded and then gave the order.

A few years have passed, and Might Guy's physical fitness is now very close to his peak.

With the seventh gate of the Eight Gates of Ninjutsu open, his combat power is enough to reach the level of Kage.

Since the only Kage-level person who can be mobilized now is Hatake Kakashi, he decided to use Might Guy as a Kage-level.

The two Anbu ninjas ran to two directions in the village to notify Kakashi and Might Guy. After

receiving the notification and knowing the seriousness of the matter, Kakashi and Might Guy quickly selected twelve elite ninjas and set out to participate in the search and rescue.

...

At the entrance of Konoha Village, a man and a boy walked into Konoha.

The man was tall, with white hair, wearing a forehead protector with the word "Oil" written on it, and a red mark under his eyes.

The boy had short blond hair, blue eyes, and six whisker-like textures on his cheeks.

These two people were Jiraiya and Uzumaki Naruto, one of the three ninjas.

"Sexy sage, let's go eat Ichiraku Ramen next!"

Thinking of the taste of Ichiraku Ramen, Uzumaki Naruto couldn't help drooling.

In the past few years since he left the village, what he missed most was Uncle Ichiraku's Ichiraku Ramen. Now he finally has the opportunity to eat Ichiraku Ramen again.

"I have something else to do, so I won't go with you. I'll come find you later!"

Jiraiya shook his head, used the instant body technique, and disappeared in front of Uzumaki Naruto in an instant.

"Oh."

Uzumaki Naruto was disappointed for a moment, but immediately became excited again.

He walked quickly towards the direction of Ichiraku Ramen in his memory.

"Finally back!"

Uchiha Fugaku was the first to learn about the return of Jiraiya and Uzumaki Naruto.

He breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the news.

Jiraiya's strength is indeed very strong. Even if he faces two members of the Akatsuki organization, he has the strength to take Uzumaki Naruto away.

However, this premise is that he does not encounter Nagato.

If he encounters Nagato, even with Jiraiya's strength, he will be in danger, and Uzumaki Naruto will definitely fall into Nagato's hands.

"It seems that you already know."

The window of the office was pushed open, and Jiraiya walked in and said to Uchiha Fugaku.

"I just found out."

Uchiha Fugaku was not surprised by Jiraiya's arrival.

Although Jiraiya's ability to restrain his breath is extremely strong, he was still sensed by his perception ability from the Yamanaka clan.

He asked Jiraiya.

"Did you encounter an attack from the Akatsuki organization on the way?"

"Some time ago, we were attacked by two members of the Akatsuki organization, one was the rebel ninja Deidara from the Hidden Rock Village, and the other was the S-level rebel ninja Hiruko from Konoha."

Jiraiya said.

He did not say the result of his encounter with these two people, but it is not difficult to imagine that if he was defeated, he would not be able to bring Uzumaki Naruto back to Konoha at this time.

"The traitor ninja Hiruko, he actually joined the Akatsuki organization?"

Uchiha Fugaku was slightly surprised.

Hiruko, a Konoha S-level traitor ninja, is a person with low ninjutsu talent but quite talented in ninjutsu development.

The Chimera Technique developed by the other party can fuse the ninja with his own body, thereby obtaining the blood limit of other ninjas, which is a degraded version of corpse smelting.

This person, like Shennong, should not have joined the Akatsuki organization, but now he has joined the Akatsuki organization.

"Yes, he has also joined the Akatsuki organization. The Akatsuki organization has absorbed many S-level traitors, and its strength should not be underestimated."

Jiraiya said solemnly.

The more he knows about the Akatsuki organization, the more he understands the horror of the Akatsuki organization.

What makes him even more uneasy is the Akatsuki organization's action to capture the Jinchūriki.

It is certain that the Akatsuki organization must be planning some huge conspiracy.

"I was in a hurry to return to Konoha, and I didn't have time to get intelligence. Which Tailed Beasts have fallen into the hands of Akatsuki?"

"One-Tail, Two-Tails, Four-Tails, Six-Tails, Seven-Tails, now all five Tailed Beasts have fallen into the hands of Akatsuki."

Uchiha Fugaku said.

"Five Tailed Beasts have already fallen into the hands of Akatsuki."

Jiraiya looked solemn. More than half of the nine Tailed Beasts have fallen into the hands of Akatsuki.

He said.

"Over the years, I have been investigating Akatsuki and found that the base of Akatsuki is likely to be in Rain Village. I plan to leave Naruto in the village and sneak into Rain Village to investigate."

"Give up this idea. Even if it's you, it's hard to survive in Rain Village."

Uchiha Fugaku shook his head and stopped Jiraiya from sneaking into Rain Village to investigate.

He knew very well that if Jiraiya sneaked into Rain Village, he would almost die.

Although his relationship with Jiraiya was not good, he didn't want to see Konoha lose a Kage-level combat force.

"How much do you know about Akatsuki?"

Jiraiya looked at Uchiha Fugaku unexpectedly. From Uchiha Fugaku's words, he could feel that Uchiha Fugaku's understanding of Akatsuki should be better than his.

"The current Rain Village is indeed the base of Akatsuki. As for the former leader of Rain Village, Hanzo, he has been secretly eliminated by Akatsuki. Now the entire Rain Village is the headquarters of Akatsuki."

Uchiha Fugaku said.

"As expected, the Rain Village has fallen into the hands of Akatsuki."

Jiraiya asked with a look of as expected on his face.

"What about the leader of Akatsuki? How much do you know about the leader of Akatsuki?"

"The leader of Akatsuki calls himself Pain, but his real identity is."

At this point, Uchiha Fugaku paused and looked at Jiraiya.

"Your former disciple Nagato."

"The leader of Akatsuki is Nagato? No, this is impossible!"

Jiraiya's face became extremely shocked.

The leader of Akatsuki, who is now feared by the entire ninja world, is actually his disciple Nagato.

Such news was too shocking, and he couldn't believe it at all, even though the one who said it was the current Fifth Hokage.

"Not long ago, I fought with the leader of the Akatsuki organization. This is his visual."

Words are often not as convincing as images. Uchiha Fugaku used the secret technique of the Sharingan to intercept a visual in his mind and sent it to Jiraiya.
