Within the borders of the Rain Country.
The pouring rain had been relentless for a day.
However, the Rain Village in the central part of the Rain Country did not feel the gloom and distress caused by this continuous downpour.
Despite the heavy rain, villagers were still moving about the streets.
Unlike before, the numbness and confusion on the villagers' faces had disappeared, replaced by a lively and hopeful expression.
Although the faces of most villagers still looked somewhat gaunt, they sensed the changes in the Rain Village during this period!
Under the policy reforms of Lord Jinnai, the villagers of the Rain Village were full of hope for the future!
Perhaps their current life still seemed very desolate and impoverished compared to other ninja villages, but they saw the light, the tangible change in their village.
The young Lord Jinnai seemed completely different from Lord Hanzo. Carrying sincerity, he worked hard to build the village, and the villagers saw his sincerity. They felt slightly reassured, no longer full of fear towards the Rain Village as they used to be.
"Pitter-patter!" "Pitter-patter!"...
In the pouring rain that pervaded the sky, two figures arrived at the entrance of the Rain Village.
"We're here."
The tall figure in front spoke calmly, his voice low.
Hearing his words, the young man behind, soaked like a drowned rat, raised his head slightly to look at the village shrouded in rain and murmured.
"This is... the Rain Village..."
Suddenly, he turned to the tall figure, a trace of confusion on his young face, and asked softly.
"Big Brother Saki... wh-why choose to come here... isn't the Rain Village an enemy of Konoha..."
Hearing his words, Saki turned his face slightly, his voice calm and plain.
"Once, this was an enemy of Konoha..."
"But after Captain Aizen killed Hanzo, this won't be an enemy of Konoha anymore... It will be the beginning of a new day."
The latter words were not heard by Nawaki because when he heard Saki say that Captain Aizen killed Hanzo, Nawaki was already stunned.
He knew that Big Brother Saki always referred to Sōsuke as Captain Aizen. He also knew the legendary name of a demigod called Hanzo in the ninja world...
Now, hearing Saki's words, he couldn't help but be dazed, and the phrase kept echoing in his mind.
Big Brother Sosuke... killed the legendary demigod...
Ignoring Nawaki's stunned state, Saki continued.
"The new leader of this village is also a follower of Captain Aizen. He will also be one of the creators of the new world. I think Captain Aizen wants you to see through all of this."
"Compared to the so-called village, Captain Aizen has already set his sights on the peace of the entire ninja world. Captain Aizen will create a brand new world, a world free from ugliness!"
"Nawaki, can you understand Captain Aizen's great ideas!"
While Saki's expression was calm when talking about the village, when he spoke of the new world, his face became excited, and his pale eyes were filled with intense fervor.
On the side, listening to his words, Nawaki widened his small mouth, and in his mind, he seemed to be imagining the magnificent waves of that scene.
This... this is... the scale that Big Brother Sosuke... talked about...
Looking at the entire ninja world...
This is truly shocking...!!
"Can... can I also participate in this..."
Nawaki suddenly lowered his small face, murmuring with an extreme sense of inferiority.
Hearing his words, Saki looked at him and said solemnly.
"Since Captain Aizen has chosen you, it proves that you have such potential and ability. Never doubt any decision made by Captain Aizen!"
"My eyes have seen too much... and the results prove... everything is just as Captain Aizen said..."
"From that moment on,..."
"I understand. Only Captain Aizen can save this dirty world, save all the misery in the world. The creator of this new world will only be Captain Aizen!"
Upon hearing Saki's words, Nawaki lifted his small face to look at his pale eyes and nodded deeply, his childish voice low.
"I understand, Big Brother Saki!"
In response, Saki nodded gently, turned around, and walked towards the Rain Village. Nawaki followed closely.
Brother Sosuke!
I will unfold my grand vision as you instructed!
.....
At the same time,
In another Konoha base within the borders of the Rain Country.
A handsome and cold-looking young ninja was frowning as he observed the map on the table inside the tent.
Surrounding the table were several Konoha ninjas who occasionally glanced at the cold young man, admiration shimmering in their eyes.
"That's it. Deploy personnel to focus on surveillance here, here, and this location. Coordinate with the town base to cut off the Sand Village's retreat!"
As he said this, he lifted his head slightly, and with a stern gaze, looked at the people present, his voice cold.
"This time, make sure to deliver the maximum blow to the Sand Village!"
Upon hearing his words, the surrounding ninjas responded in a low voice.
"Yes! Captain Shino!"
Just then,
In the eyes of Captain Shino, who had always been calm, there was a slight change in his expression.
"You continue discussing if there are any shortcomings."
After coldly uttering these words, Captain Shino disappeared instantly from the spot!
After he left, the ninjas started discussing.
"What's wrong with Captain Shino!? I've never seen him so uneasy before!"
"Sigh... I don't know what happened... There shouldn't be any shortcomings in the strategic analysis of Captain Shino... He even managed to establish the name of 'Konoha Shura'... "
"Who said otherwise... Achieving the title of 'Konoha Shura,' I think Captain Shino has a good chance of succeeding the Fourth!"
While people were discussing on the field, a ninja with light blue hair followed Captain Shino and left the area.
...
In a lush forest far from the base.
"Swoosh!"
A figure suddenly appeared, with long black hair and a ninja combat suit, a tall figure.
Looking at the cold face, it was none other than Uchiha Shino, who had previously designed the strategic plan in the base.
"Pitter-patter!" "Pitter-patter!"...
With the sound of light footsteps, a gentle voice slowly emanated from behind a giant tree.
"Long time no see, Shino."
Hearing this voice, Captain Shino's face remained cold, and he turned slowly to face Sōsuke, who was gradually emerging from the darkness, saying coldly,
"Long... time... no... see... Captain... Aizen..."
Sōsuke's eyes under the lenses carried a hint of a smile, and he looked at Shino at this moment, saying softly,
"Looking at this appearance... it seems like you are quite satisfied with your current life..."
Hearing his words, Shino's gaze slightly condensed, saying in a deep voice,
"I'm just following your orders here..."
Ignoring Shino's cold tone, Sōsuke smiled slightly and said softly,
"It seems like... you are quite confident in your current power..."
As his words fell lightly, it felt like a heavy blow to Shino!
"Boom!"
Suddenly, Shino's body collapsed to the ground!
His entire body bowed down to the ground!
The ground where he was kneeling formed a huge semicircular pit!
The cracked trench spread out in all directions!
The forest in this small area seemed to be trembling, as if angered by a god!
At this moment, Sōsuke's magnetic and gentle voice slowly echoed in the area.
"In that case, wouldn't it be easier to have a conversation like this..."
