Chapter 273: Immortal Eye
After hearing the sound of the explosion, Hiruko did not panic. He called his three core subordinates and walked out.
Although his base was not particularly hidden, it should be somewhat difficult to find.
Moreover, he did not have any enemies.
Although he was a missing-nin from Konoha, it was not that easy for Konoha to locate him.
Therefore, Hiruko felt that the only possible guest at this time was the Akatsuki that the fake Madara Uchiha mentioned.
"Don't act rashly!" Hiruko said.
Hiruko stationed two of his men next to him.
Hiruko and Akatsuki then met.
"You are Konoha's missing-nin, Hiruko, right? Join us! We need your strength. In exchange, Akatsuki will provide protection for you." Konan invited Hiruko with the same words she used to recruit other members.
"Akatsuki? Well, I don't mind joining you. Can you describe your organization to me?" Hiruko said with a smile.
Although he had agreed the masked man to join Akatsuki, it was necessary to gather some information before joining.
Being faced with Hiruko's request, Konan benevolently described Akatsuki to him.
"Akatsuki is a very free organization. Apart from missions, we won't force you to do anything. At the same time, the organization will provide protection for you. You won't have to be worried about being hunted down."
After all, compared to Musashi, Kakuzu or Sasori's request, Hiruko's request was much easier. At least he seemed to show no sign of retaliating.
"Sounds good! Then I will join." Hiruko nodded and said.
He actually was not very satisfied with Konan's answer just now. It sounded as if she had said a lot, but in fact, she did not describe anything about Akatsuki.
However, he had to join Akatsuki. Only by joining Akatsuki would his cooperation with the masked be established.
"Very good, from now on, you are an official member of Akatsuki." Konan nodded with a slightly relieved look on her face.
The recruitment this time went very smoothly. There was no battle whatsoever, which made Konan relieved.
"Can my men join Akatsuki as well? They are very loyal." Hiruko asked.
"Yes, but they can't become formal members like you." Konan replied.
"So, a sub-member? No problem." Hiruko thought for a moment and agreed.
"Come with us to our base, where you will get your uniform and ring?" Konan turned around and walked out of the base.
"How boring. You guys go ahead of me. I just remember that there is a Shinobi with a bounty of 1.2 million ryo on the border of Country of Grass." Kakuzu said and directly left the group.
"Sure, but make sure to keep it fast." That was Konan's message as she did not really care about Kakuzu.
Konan felt that Kakuzu was definitely not acting on the spur of the moment. He should've already investigated it.
Therefore, she didn't stop Kakuzu and let him do whatever he wanted. It was better than him causing trouble at Akatsuki's base.
"Has your organization always been this lenient?" Hiruko asked the young Sasori.
"Maybe." Sasori said with a smile.
Sasori's smile and tone made Hiruko realize that this young man was no ordinary boy. He gave off a very dangerous aura.
"You might as well ask me. Actually, we have only just joined not long ago, but I joined a little earlier than them." Musashi said.
"By the way, what are you good at? Ninjutsu or Taijutsu? Or do you want to fight instead?"
Battle maniac. This was Hiruko's first impression of Musashi.
Hiruko smiled and shook his head. "I am not good at fighting. What I am good at is research and Secret Techniques."
"Not good at fighting? Then how did you escape from Konoha? I heard that Konoha is the strongest among Five Great Shinobi Countries." Musashi asked curiously.
He was no longer the samurai who just left Land of Iron and didn't know anything about the outside world.
"It's very simple. Just flee to other countries. Even Konoha will have a hard time capturing a criminal in another country." Hiruko smiled.
Musashi then no longer inquired Hiruko.
He indeed sensed that Hiruko's aura was not that strong.
However, Musashi felt that there must be something special about Hiruko that he was recruited by Akatsuki, so he asked him a few questions.
Since Hiruko was good in research, he was no longer interested in him. He simply wanted to fight the strong and honed his swordsmanship.
He picked a fight with Kakuzu earlier on purpose.
He could sense that Kakuzu's aura was very strong, even stronger than Sasori and him. Only this kind of person could push him to his limit and help him become stronger.
"What kind of research did you do specifically?" Sasori asked curiously when he heard Hiruko's words.
"Bloodline Limit. Strip someone else's Bloodline Limit and fuse it into my body." Hiruko said with a smile.
"Oh." Sasori lost his interest and felt that Hiruko was very boring. In his opinion, his puppet could do better. Not only could it retain its Bloodline Limit, it could also use the Ninjutsu that the opponent use.
Compared to his eternal art, Hiruko was just a petty thief, so Sasori was no longer interested in.
The Land of Grass was next to Amegakure, so Konan and her group quickly returned to Akatsuki.
"Hiruko, from now on, you are Void of the Akatsuki! This is your ring." Pain expressionlessly handed the ring with the word "Void" engraved on it to Hiruko.
"Alright, leader." Hiruko smiled and caught the ring. There was a hint of greed in his eyes as he looked at Pain.
Since he had developed Chimera Technique, Hiruko naturally looked up all sorts of Bloodline Limit.
Hiruko had once read a type of Blood Limit in an ancient book, known as Sage of Six Paths' Eye Technique, which controlled the Life and Death.
And those eyes fit the description of the eyes of Akatsuki's leader.
'With the legendary eyes of Sage of Six Paths, he can indeed be called a god.' Hiruko thought.
Hiruko would not leave Akatsuki even if he was driven away from Akatsuki now.
Once he had obtained the five ideal Bloodline Limits and became the strongest Shinobi, he would then take the eyes of Akatsuki's leader.
At that time, he would truly shed his mortal body and become a god!
Pain noticed Hiruko's gaze and glanced at him indifferently.
Hiruko was instantly sent flying, but Nagato held back, stopping just before he touched the wall.
"Don't even try to question the dignity of a god." Pain said slowly.
"I'm sorry, leader." Hiruko lowered his head and apologized.
'Just bear with this a little longer, and they will regret it sooner or later.'
