Capítulo 66: Konan
(A/N:-2400+ words, Thank you for reading 🖤)

**Iron Country, Conference Room**
Several figures were seated around the conference table, each one exuding a palpable aura of authority. Mifune had a faint smile on his face as he addressed the room.
"Everyone has heard about what happened in Konoha recently."
Mifune, the first to speak, broke the silence.
"Haha... Of course, Hokage was executed. This kind of thing is really unbelievable."
Yagura sneered.
"Oh, I've lived long enough to see everything. I didn't expect that the former 'Ninja' would have such a day."
Onoki sighed, a hint of sadness in his voice.
"Sarutobi Hiruzen was killed, and I feel inexplicably sad."
After all, Sarutobi Hiruzen and he were ninjas of the same era.
"He isn't strong enough, so it's not surprising that he ended up like this," the Third Kazekage said disdainfully. "The Hokage, who had been in charge for so long and controlled the village for decades, was overthrown by a boy with no hair on his head. What a disgrace to the title of 'Kage.'"
"Snort!" Ai's voice was rough and filled with anger. "Those things that Sarutobi Hiruzen did, if he were in our village, I would have killed him too. Not to mention the ninjas of Konoha, even I couldn't help but want to tear Hiruzen alive after hearing the dirty information."
"Well, anyway, this is a good thing for us," Mifune smiled. The others nodded in agreement. Konoha is being besieged by them, and instead of thinking about how to solve the problem, they are actually fighting among themselves. It's simply self-destruction.
"Originally, after being caught off guard by Konoha at the beginning, I still thought that the Fourth Hokage had some tricks up his sleeve. But now it seems that he is just a fool," the Third Kazekage chuckled.
"Yes, he is indeed an idiot to think about internal fighting at this time," Yagura added calmly. "Now, Konoha has lost a Kage-level expert and so many clan ninjas. It is a good time for us to launch a counterattack."
Onoki spoke solemnly, "That's right. When our allied forces invade Konoha, the Fourth Hokage will probably regret it so much, right? When the time comes, let me blow his head off with my own hands."
Ai squeezed his fist and sneered, "Let me achieve what my forefathers failed to do."
"But... is there such a possibility?" Mifune suddenly spoke. "Senju Takuya dares to attack Sarutobi Hiruzen at this time. Is it because he is sure of his victory in this war?"
After hearing his analysis, everyone was silent for a moment before they all laughed again.
"Hahahaha... General Mifune, you are so funny."
"It's just ridiculous."
Everyone present had sarcastic smiles on their faces. They admit that Senju Takuya may have some strength if he can succeed in the coup and become Hokage, but to say that the other side is confident of winning is a bit too much.
With the strength of the four of them, if they join forces to deal with the enemy, even Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama back then were probably no match for them, right?
Seeing the ridicule on everyone's faces, Mifune also smiled awkwardly. Indeed, what he just said seemed a bit too stupid. In the conference room, the atmosphere was very cheerful. Soon everyone decided on the attack strategy. They have almost seen how high-spirited they would be after occupying Konoha.
**On the Battlefield**
With the joint attack of various ninja villages, Konoha gradually fell into a disadvantage. However, under the leadership of Hatake Sakumo, Orochimaru, Namikaze Minato, Tsunade, and others, the situation on various battlefields gradually stabilized. Although Konoha was at a disadvantage, the other villages could not advance. Under this situation, each ninja village unanimously moved the battlefield to the Land of Rain to prevent the war from spreading to the mainland of their own countries.
The Land of Rain is located at the junction of the Land of Fire, the Land of Wind, and the Land of Earth. Throughout the ages, it has been the first choice for various countries to be the main battlefield in wars. This has almost become an unwritten consensus in the ninja world. The weak Rain Country has Hanzō of the Salamander, who is called a "demigod." But this situation still cannot be avoided.
**The Land of Rain, Border**
The sky was covered with dark clouds and it was raining lightly. The charred houses collapsed under the wash of rain. On the road, there were puddles everywhere.
Snapped!
A pair of feet stepped through the puddle and splashed. Several ninjas wearing robes and Rain Shinobi forehead protectors were walking in the rain. The rain was running down their cheeks, but they didn't care.
"Konan, no news yet?" the yellow-haired ninja stopped and asked.
"no I haven't received any reply to all the letters I've sent to Hanzo-sama," Konan replied.
"Yahiko, what should we do now?"
Konan frowned slightly. There was a paper flower stuck in her purple hair. Her cold expression and somewhat cold voice made her look like an iceberg.
"Do not care. Maybe Hanzō-sama just can't spare the time to meet with us. In this case, we can only solve it on our own," Yahiko said firmly.
"Yahiko, tell me what you think," Konan spoke calmly.
"Let's go talk to the guys in Iwagakure, Konoha, and Sunagakure ourselves. The war has caused too many tragedies and should not continue." Yahiko sighed as he looked at the collapsed houses and bodies everywhere. He had grown up in this environment with difficulty since he was a child, and he must change this situation.
"But... will they listen to us?" Nagato, who had been silent on the side, suddenly spoke.
"Haha... don't worry. As long as we work hard and open our hearts to each other, they will definitely be moved by us. The era will come when people trust and understand each other. Aren't we proof of that?" Yahiko smiled boldly.
Seeing the confident smile on his face, Konan, Nagato, and others all nodded their heads. If they could really get to that point, and everyone would be honest with each other, there would never be another war in the ninja world, right?
"Without further ado, let's go!" Yahiko ran forward first, followed closely by Konan, Nagato, and others.
At this time, the dark clouds in the sky dispersed, and a rare ray of sunlight appeared in the sky above the Land of Rain.
"Yahiko, give our organization a name," Nagato spoke.
After hearing his words, Yahiko thought for a while. Looking at the sunlight that penetrated the dark clouds and fell on the earth, he slowly spoke.
"Our organization is called... Akatsuki."
**Konoha Village, Hokage Office**
Senju Takuya looked at the information in his hand and frowned. Three months had passed since the start of the Third Ninja War. In these three months, almost all the ninjas of the Sarutobi clan, Shimura clan, and several other clans had died.
The fighting on the front line was getting more and more intense.
Especially the battlefield in the Land of Rain.
With one against three, Konoha could no longer hold on.
"It seems it's time to take a trip."
Takuya snorted.
Now that his goal of consuming the Sarutobi clan and the Shimura clan of ninjas through war has been achieved, it's time for him to take action.
Following Senju Takuya's orders, the Konoha shinobi gradually began to retreat.
Soon, they completely withdrew from the Land of Rain.
This move made the Kazekage and others feel that Konoha could no longer hold on.
However, in order to prevent falling into Konoha's trap again, the ninja coalition did not pursue them as fiercely as they did at the beginning.
Instead, they began to conduct a thorough search in the Land of Rain, advancing slowly bit by bit.
In the Land of Rain, Yahiko, Konan, and Nagato were carefully hiding in a corner.
Watching the large force of the ninja alliance passing by, they quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Yahiko, these guys are so disgusting."
"Even though Konoha has already evacuated, why did they go even further?"
Konan's expression was a little angry.
After the Land of Rain became the main battlefield, under the leadership of Yahiko, they began to contact the frontline commanders of each village to lobby them to stop the war, or at least move the battlefield away from the Land of Rain.
However, no matter how much they talked, they had little effect.
When this situation continued, the Konoha shinobi suddenly began to retreat. This made Konan and the others overjoyed.
Unexpectedly, after the Konoha shinobi evacuated, instead of leaving the Land of Rain, the ninja alliance conducted a thorough search in the Land of Rain. Once a living person was found, they would be killed immediately.
Countless civilians and ninjas in the Land of Rain died at the hands of these guys.
To this end, they also went to negotiate with the ninja alliance. But the other party launched an attack against them, causing them to almost lose their lives.
"Don't worry, Konan."
"Isn't our lobbying already effective?"
"As long as we work hard, sooner or later, the ninja coalition will withdraw from the Land of Rain like the Konoha ninjas."
Yahiko reassured with a smile.
However, this time neither Konan nor Nagato spoke.
After their companions died one after another, they doubted Yahiko's words for the first time.
Can the ideal of mutual understanding and mutual trust between people really be realized?
"Found it. They're here!"
Seeing the ninja coalition rushing towards them, Yahiko and the others immediately started running for their lives.
There were at least a thousand people in this ninja coalition. It's not something the three of them could handle.
The rain was still falling as Yahiko, Konan, and Nagato ran wildly on the muddy road, not daring to relax for a moment. The ninja alliance was not far behind them.
Once caught up, they would definitely die.
At this time, a fire ahead instantly caught their attention.
"Are they asking for death by lighting a fire here?"
Seeing the man holding an umbrella and grilling meat leisurely by the fire, Yahiko cursed in a low voice. Immediately, he took Konan and Nagato and ran towards the fire.
"Hey don't you have any common sense? Do you still want to live after you light a fire in a place like this?"
After running closer, Konan sighed helplessly.
After hearing Konan's words, the man slowly turned his head. After seeing the man's appearance clearly, Konan couldn't help but open her mouth in surprise. What a handsome man…
Being stared at by the man in front of him, Konan felt like her heart skipped a few beats.
What's your name? Are you a Shinobi from the Land of Rain?"
Seeing Konan in a daze, Yahiko stepped forward and asked.
"My name is Takuya, from Konoha."
Takuya spread the seasonings on the barbecue with a look of surprise in his eyes. He did not expect to meet Yahiko, Konan, and Nagato here.
"Konoha?"
Hearing Takuya's words, Yahiko and his friends frowned. Why would someone from Konoha be here?
However, there was no time to worry about these things now.
Looking at Takuya, who was still eating barbecue leisurely, Konan spoke again.
"Stop eating, it's very dangerous here. You can hide with us for a while. When it's safe, we will send you back to Konoha."
After Konan finished speaking, she pulled Takuya up from the ground. Making a fire and barbecue in the war zone… He looks so handsome, but doesn't have cerebral palsy, right?
"You can only have the strength to work when you are full. I can't get used to things like soldier pills. The barbecue tastes pretty good, but it's a pity that there is no wine."
Takuya said indifferently.
Hearing Takuya's words, Konan felt helpless. is now the time to talk about food taste?
"Takuya, are you coming with us? The ninja alliance will be chasing us soon. You may be in bad luck if you stay here."
Seeing Konan being led astray, Yahiko walked up to Takuya and said calmly.
"Walk? I'm afraid I can't leave now."
Takuya shook his head.
Subsequently, nearly a thousand ninja coalition forces came out from all directions and surrounded them.
"Damn!"
Looking at such a large number of ninjas, Yahiko and the others' faces were very serious. It's over this time.
"Everyone, be careful and look for opportunities to break out later. As for this guy…if you can save him, save him. If you can't save him, forget it."
Yahiko took out his kunai and calmly gave the order. Although he knew that there was little hope of breaking out, he did not want to just accept his fate.
"Understood."
Konan and Nagato both nodded. They formed a triangle formation, surrounding Senju Takuya in the middle.
"You guys are really warm-hearted… "
Putting the last piece of barbecue into his mouth, Takuya wiped his mouth and pulled Konan behind him. Seeing that these guys all wanted to save him, he might as well save them once.
"What do you want to do? Now is not the time to show off, please be obedient."
Seeing Takuya pull away and walk to the front, Konan said angrily. This guy, haven't you figured out the current situation? What they are facing now is a ninja coalition composed of a thousand ninjas from each village!
"Don't worry, leave everything to me."
Takuya patted Konan on the shoulder and gave her a reassuring look. Konan looked at the calm smile on Takuya's face and felt inexplicably relieved.
But soon she reacted again. No, how can you, a guy who doesn't even have basic common sense, have the confidence to say such a thing?
Seeing the confident Takuya, Konan, Yahiko, and Nagato were all speechless.
"Hey hey hey… finally caught these annoying mice, kill them for me!"
Opposite, the leader of the ninja gave an order, and nearly a thousand ninjas rushed towards them at the same time.
Seeing this shocking scene, Yahiko, Konan, and Nagato all had expressions of despair on their faces. It's really over now. Under the siege of so many people, with their strength, there is no hope of breaking out.
Damn it! Do you want to die in a place like this when your ideal has not yet been realized?
Yahiko, Konan, and Nagato clenched their fists with unwillingness on their faces. Really, I really want to continue living…
