Chapter 22 - Chapter 22

Inside Amegakure a masked man and an orange-haired man looked at the rain pouring out outside of their cave.

"Why do you think he called a meeting again?" the masked man asked.

"Don't know, he was in the Sunagakure yesterday. He caused quite a ruckus there." the orange-haired one replied.

"Maybe he wants to give us One-Tails to seal it?" the masked man assumed.

"Maybe, but I'm still a little skeptical about him" Paid said.

"Me too, Zetsu didn't manage to learn anything about his other technique outside the Kaguya clan Kekkei Genkai. Even yesterday in Suna he didn't manage to catch anything. He just reported a massive chakra spike happening inside him, then he just disappeared"

"It must be a powerful technique" Pain replied.

"Are you still confident in handling him?" Obito asked unsurely.

"Yes, I am" Pain looked into the distance and said "After all, he's nothing in front of the power of a God"

One day ago.

Kimimaro called his clone to summon him inside the Orochimaru's base. But before that, he also notified the Akatsuki about the meeting. He wanted to give them his clone inside whom he sealed the One-Tails.

After all, the more tailed beasts they seal into Gedo Mazo, the better for him. It will all belong to him one day anyway. And that day wasn't that far in the future.

After his clone summoned he immediately went to meet with Orochimaru. He wondered where are Karin and Yugo. 'Maybe they're in other bases, Orochimaru is getting ready for an invasion surely after all'

Soon he came to the Orochimaru's office. He and Kabuto were the only ones inside it. On the giant table in the middle of the room stood a giant Konoha and Land of Fire. They looked like they were in the middle of planning something.

"Am I interrupting something, gentlemen?" Kimimaro asked grinning.

They already sensed him before he came here, Kabuto replied "No, we were in the middle of planning on how to conquer Konoha"

"I can see that, so when will the plan start?"

"Around a month later, Lord Orochimaru still isn't fully familiar with his Rinnegan" Kabuto replied again.

"That's alright, but I want a piece of the Konoha pie, too!" Kimimaro said seriously.

"How much do you want?" Orochimaru hissed.

"Half, of course" Kimimaro replied.

"Half of what, exactly?" Orochimaru asked again annoyed.

"Half of the territories, half of the resources, half of the civilians, half of the shinobi forces, half of the ninja clans, half of everything..." Kimimaro replied.

"I'll also join the invasion personally"

"Alright, but leave the Hokage to me. We have some personal business to finish" Orochimaru said menacingly. He guesses he wanted the revenge on Sarutobi for choosing Minato instead of him as his successor in the past.

"Alright, you can decide the rest with my clone here in the base. See you one month later. Bye" Kimimaro replied and left.

Once he really left, Kabuto asked his Lord "How do you plan to deal with him?"

"I don't know, that brat is surely tricky. I'm not sure if even Rinnegan will be enough to deal with him. But I still have to try to fight him once more. After that, we'll see"

Present.

Inside the Akatsuki special sealing room, two white-haired teenagers entered. All the members looked at them curiously.

One of the two soon opened his mouth and said "This is my long lost twin brother, Gimimaro"

They all looked at him weirdly so he quickly said "I'm kidding, that's my bone clone inside whom I sealed the One-Tails Shukaku"

"Nice, now we must remain standing in this place for hours again" Deidara said annoyed.

"And that's not even all, about a month from now there'll be another one coming, haha" Kimimaro said annoying him even more.

"Anotheeer oneee?" Hidan asked annoyed and continued, "When will I be allowed to go and capture one?"

"That's enough Hidan" he said then looked at Kimimaro a little then said to everyone present "If Kimimaro really manages to bring us another tailed beast in a month. We'll start with our plan earlier, it'll not be fair if he brings us all the tailed beasts alone"

"Let's first seal this one for now"
