Nothing happened overnight.
The next morning.
At the same gathering place as yesterday.
All the members of the Akatsuki had returned.
The Deva Path stood on the steps.
He looked at the people in front of him.
"The One-Tail has been successfully captured. To prevent the five great ninja villages from discovering our plan."
"The next plan will be carried out as quickly as possible."
"But there is a problem now."
As he spoke, Pain looked at Yuichi.
"Yuichi, you don't have a ring."
This sudden question made Yuichi feel a little confused.
A ring?
He had been in the Akatsuki for a year, and indeed, he had not received the ring that represented the codename Kūchin.
But Yuichi didn't care about that thing anyway.
Wearing a ring and painting his nails, Yuichi was a little resistant.
It was good that he didn't have a ring.
"Then go and retrieve it!"
Retrieve the ring?
Couldn't he just give him one? Couldn't he just forge a ring with the character for "Kū" on it?
It was just a ring. Was it necessary to go somewhere to retrieve it?
Seeing Yuichi's nonchalant attitude.
Pain said with a blank expression, "The Akatsuki ring has a special ability. No matter where a member is, they can be summoned when sealing a Tailed Beast."
"You have to participate in the work of sealing the Tailed Beasts. It will be troublesome if you don't have a ring."
"Every time a Tailed Beast is sealed, you must rush to the sealing location."
After hearing this explanation.
So that was it. No wonder these guys were all projected when sealing the Tailed Beasts.
So it was because of the ring.
But retrieve the ring? Then shouldn't he go find Orochimaru?
That guy had taken the ring with him when he left the Akatsuki!
[Villain Level Up Mission Issued]
[Symbol of Identity]
[Find Orochimaru, defeat him, and take back the ring representing Kūchin, becoming the true Akatsuki's Kūchin]
[Mission Complete, the host's identity will be promoted from Akatsuki Member to Akatsuki's Kūchin]
[As the villain level increases, the mission rewards and the random multiplier from the identity will also be enhanced]
So, if he raised his villain identity level, the mission rewards would be better, and the random multiplier would also be higher!
Not bad!
The reward for this mission had a bonus for future mission rewards. This mission had to be completed.
After reading the mission.
The originally calm Yuichi's eyes seemed to light up with a flame.
He was extremely excited.
He looked up, his black hair swaying slightly.
Yuichi's sharp gaze looked at Pain.
"That ring is with Orochimaru, right?"
Pain nodded.
He saw the extremely strong killing intent in Yuichi's eyes.
People like those in the Akatsuki could feel the eager look in Yuichi's eyes.
'This Yuichi seems to be interested in fighting.'
'He got excited as soon as he heard he was going to find trouble with Orochimaru!'
'A belligerent guy.'
Yuichi was belligerent!
This impression was initially imprinted in the hearts of the Akatsuki members.
In the Akatsuki, it was abnormal not to have a strange personality.
Kisame Hoshigaki seemed to have a good impression of this kid from the same village.
He spoke and reminded, "Orochimaru is not easy to deal with. Kid, for the sake of us both being from Kirigakure, do you want me to go with you?"
Kisame's kindness surprised Yuichi a little.
But it was just dealing with Orochimaru. Yuichi wasn't worried.
The only thing he was worried about was finding Orochimaru.
That guy was good at hiding.
"No need. It's just Orochimaru."
Yuichi refused Kisame.
Kisame was a little angry that his kindness was refused. If it weren't for the fact that Yuichi was also from Kirigakure.
Kisame Hoshigaki wouldn't have so easily offered to help.
His kindness was actually refused.
He snorted coldly.
Kisame Hoshigaki said coldly, "If you underestimate that guy, you'll suffer. The Three Sannin of Konoha all have Kage-level strength."
"Kage-level, nothing special."
Yuichi shrugged indifferently.
Pain glanced at Yuichi faintly. "Besides Yuichi, the others will also start their missions."
"Hidan, Kakuzu, the Two-Tails is yours. There's a good opportunity to capture it now."
The two of them nodded. They didn't take the capture of the mere Two-Tails seriously at all.
However, Yuichi suddenly spoke.
"Wait!"
"Let me capture the Two-Tails!"
Yuichi said quickly.
Capturing a Tailed Beast was a good opportunity to trigger a mission.
He couldn't let it go. Not just the Two-Tails; Yuichi wanted to capture all the Tailed Beasts.
He wouldn't let any of them go.
Hearing Yuichi's words, Nagato, who was controlling Pain, was a little confused. Yuichi seemed to be interested in capturing the Tailed Beasts.
Looking at the expectation in Yuichi's eyes, it seemed he was not just interested in capturing the Tailed Beasts, but extremely eager to do so.
The corner of Nagato's mouth twitched slightly.
He guessed, could it be that this kid found fighting Tailed Beasts interesting, which was why he was so eager to capture them?
He sighed softly.
If everyone was as enthusiastic about capturing the Tailed Beasts as Yuichi was.
Then the speed of completing that plan would be much faster.
But although Yuichi was willing to contribute, retrieving the ring was the most important thing now.
With one less ring when sealing a Tailed Beast, there would be one less input of chakra, which would seriously affect the speed of sealing.
He controlled Pain to say to Yuichi, "Retrieve the Kūchin ring first, then we'll talk!"
"I will get the ring, but the mission to capture the Two-Tails must also be mine!"
Yuichi said resolutely, with an attitude of no compromise.
He was openly challenging Nagato's authority.
But it made Nagato feel a little moved.
If there was an award for the most outstanding employee of the organization, it would definitely be given to Yuichi.
Yuichi was the first person willing to work so hard for the organization.
The other guys all had their own purposes and reasons for joining the Akatsuki.
Not all of them truly wanted to help the organization complete its plan.
"Five days!"
"If you can retrieve the ring within five days, then you might be able to make it for the Two-Tails capture mission."
"Five days!" Yuichi frowned.
If it was just defeating Orochimaru, Yuichi felt it would be no problem, but first, he had to find him.
In five days, finding Orochimaru would probably be difficult.
"Zero! I probably know where Orochimaru is. Let me take him to find Orochimaru!"
Suddenly, Sasori stood up and said. Today, Sasori had made another Hiruko and was hiding inside the puppet again.
Pain glanced at Sasori lightly.
Kisame Hoshigaki was willing to help Yuichi because they were both rogue ninja from Kirigakure.
Sasori was also willing to help Yuichi.
"As you wish!"
"In any case, Yuichi, you only have five days. After five days, the organization will start to act."
"If you want to fight a Jinchuriki, then deal with Orochimaru as soon as possible and get back the Akatsuki ring."
With that, Pain turned around.
"Dismissed!"
Everyone left one by one.
Yuichi and Sasori walked out of Amegakure.
"You're willing to take me to find Orochimaru because you're repaying me for saving your life?"
Sasori, who was walking in front, stopped.
"Hmph! Don't flatter yourself. Even without you at that time, I could have defeated those Konoha ninja."
"I'm not helping you. I'm interested in some of Orochimaru's things. Even if Zero hadn't asked you to retrieve the ring, I would have found a chance to deal with Orochimaru."
Although Sasori said that, his tone was relatively gentle.
He probably meant to repay him! He was just unwilling to admit it.
What an arrogant guy
