"Okay~ then I..."

"You can't go out."

"...Why?"

“You are now Xiao Nan, and you’ve entered a clone’s body, so you can’t come out,” Bai Xing said.

"Tch. Just make another body. Or I can go into the nutrient tank and shed this body..."

"Looks like we'll have to find someone else to squeeze you out..."

"I know, I know. Really."

"Stop asking questions you already know the answer to." Bai Xing rolled her eyes, walked out of the living room, and said before leaving, "There's a game console here."

"It was developed by Loulan based on the Tetris game console of the current era."

"Do whatever you want."

After Bai Xing left, Bai Xing's clone remained in the living room, looking at the television in front of him. He appeared nonchalant, but the next second, a mischievous thought arose in his mind, and he hurriedly took out the instruction manual to check it.

With just one glance, the white star clone's eyes widened in surprise:

"Hold the grass, hold the grass!"

"It's true that professional tasks should be left to professionals!"

"Ninja vs. Knight?"

"If this continues, won't a virtual reality game based on Boruto: The Legend of the Condor Heroes be released too?!"

This game is a 2D game where Loulan knights fight against ordinary ninjas.

It's very similar to a modern boxing champion, and it even has a dedicated game controller...

"Waaaah, I wronged your true form."

Bai Xing, who was covered with a blanket in the master bedroom next door, said with a smile, "If I had the time, I would want to wear it at home and play games every day. Who would want to be a villain for no reason?"

Gaming is the true romance for men.

Many people find games boring, but that's only because they've gotten tired of them and don't have the money to experience them in real life. If you've experienced almost everything in real life, you'll find virtual games more fun and diverse.

And the world today.

I've played through almost everything on Shirahoshi, and now I just want to finish the game as soon as possible.

Then develop the [World Gate], find the coordinates of other worlds, and go mess around in those worlds.

......

Yahiko: "Konan's coming back! Nagato, should we have a welcome ceremony?"

Nagato: "Alright! I'll have Kyusuke arrange it!"

The news of Konan's return was first reported to the high-ranking officials of the Land of Rain before falling into the hands of Yahiko and Nagato.

Therefore, the plans of the Rain Country's high-ranking officials, namely Hanzo, the leader of Amegakure, were also changed.

While the Akatsuki Chamber of Commerce was still preparing for Konan's celebration, Hanzo's team had already arrived at the only route they could take on their return journey from the Land of Fire to Amegakure.

The Konoha ninjas that Konan hired only escorted her to the border of the Land of Rain; after that, Konan had to walk on her own.

After all, although the Land of Rain is not currently considered an enemy country, it is a place frequently visited by ninjas from enemy countries.

If the mission is to be delivered to the gate of Amegakure, then an A-rank or higher mission must be assigned for the village to send someone.

Based on the current market price, that's at least 500,000 taels of Fire Coins.

Given Xiao Nan's personality, how could she possibly spend this money?

Now, only Konan is walking on the rain-covered rocky road in the Land of Rain.

He carried a backpack of moderate size and wore a raincoat, looking somewhat lonely.

"We're almost there."

"I'm so looking forward to seeing Yahiko and Nagato~"

As Xiao Nan raced along, now only about 20 kilometers away from Amegakure Village, she relaxed.

But soon, she realized something was wrong.

—Aside from the sound of rain, there was no other sound around.

"It's so quiet. Have we been ambushed? According to my prediction, the person who could have known about me in advance and ambushed me in the Land of Rain..." Konan said helplessly, "It must be Lord Hanzo."

Step, step, step!

The sound of rapid footsteps filled Xiao Nan's eyes.

Then,

One by one, figures emerged from the rocky area. There were twenty Rain Village ninjas around, plus Hanzo's trusted ninjas.

Hanzo stood beside his trusted ninja, looking at Konan:

"You know, I have always trusted you."

"But why! Why did they collude with Konoha to try and destroy Amegakure!"

A scroll was thrown from mid-air and landed at Xiao Nan's feet.

Konan bent down, picked up the scroll, stared at the series of blatant slanderous acts inside, and threw it down forcefully: "The information in here is false. Lord Hanzo, don't you trust Akatsuki?!"

"The merchant guild we, Akatsuki, established has brought so much to the people of the Land of Rain..."

"Enough!" Hanzo interrupted, his face cold. "That's the truth."

"You Akatsuki, ostensibly a trading company, are actually using this opportunity to leak information about our village to the ninjas of Konoha..."

"That's why the Fire Country's companies are willing to accept you!"

Seeing the angry expressions on the faces of the Amegakure ninjas, Hanzo raised his right hand:

"Do it!!"

"Hanzo, you bastard!" Konan threw out her backpack and detonated the explosive tags inside.

boom! ! !

Then, one person versus nineteen Rain Village ninjas, the battle was about to begin!

......

Time has moved forward slightly.

Hanzo stepped on Konan's hand, confirming her death: "It's over."

"I never expected that even though we had two Jonin, six Chunin, and eleven Genin from the village all working together, they all died here."

"Vice President Xiao Nan, you've really kept it well hidden!" Ji Yu exclaimed.

"This actually makes my plan more advantageous," Hanzo said. "When the Amegakure ninja questioned Konan about the letter, she couldn't explain it and killed one of them."

"Ji Yu, the Xiaoshang Association is now in your hands."

"Don't worry, Lord Hanzo."

Hanzo was very confident about this.

Despite the fact that Xiaoshang Association seems to be labeled with the White Cross, the White Cross is actually just an official business for Xiaoshang Association and there's nothing special about it.

Ultimately, what the Xiaoshang Association needs is the land and people of the Rain Country, not the existence of these three orphans!

Of course, these are all Hanzo's personal thoughts.

This is like someone finding a middleman to introduce a client to a business deal, but halfway through the negotiations, that person tries to bypass the middleman and deal directly with the client...

The client who was introduced to this kind of behavior will not tolerate it.

......

After completing the ambush on Konan, Hanzo returned to Amegakure and immediately began the operation to capture the Akatsuki Trading Company!

boom!

"Don't move! Everyone, don't move!"

We are Amegakure ninja! We are acting on orders from Lord Hanzo, suspecting that the Akatsuki Trading Company is involved in illegal and treasonous activities.

Everyone must cooperate!

If they do not cooperate, they will all be killed without exception!

Chapter 165 Ominous Signs of Turmoil in the Land of Rain

In Yuyin Village.

As if a light rain were falling from the sky, ninjas wearing rain-concealing headbands appeared one after another on the huge Akatsuki Merchant Guild Street.

Pushing open the door, they grabbed the people from the Xiaoshang Association on the street, handcuffed them, and seized their shops and rented office buildings.

Countless people wearing uniforms with the word "Akatsuki" embroidered on them have now become something to be avoided at all costs.

"Isn't Xiaoshanghui a good business? My family often buys goods from their store and some of their branches."

"Shh! Are you out of your mind?! It's obvious you've committed a crime!"

The onlookers, witnessing this scene, were all afraid of being implicated.

While the Amegakure ninjas were leading the Akatsuki members away from the scene.

A group of remnants of the chamber of commerce, who had received advance notice and were hiding among the onlookers in raincoats, watched all of this unfold.

But clearly, they didn't have the power to resist Hanzo.

"Yahiko... let's go. The city gates aren't sealed yet, and Hanzo doesn't know we've been informed. Let's get out of here quickly!"

The red-haired boy had lost all respect for Hanzo and patted Yahiko, who was wearing a raincoat and shedding tears, in front of him.

Beside him stood orphaned genin such as Idaten Kyūsuke and Daibutsu.

"Let's go."

"We will take back Amegakure sooner or later."
