Chapter 52: Is Itachi also a Spy Sent by Danzo

The instant he saw Pain, Orochimarus smile stiffened!

Obviously, he had just wanted to taunt Uehara. Why did he actually summon Pain?

What is going on here?

Orochimarus first thought was to question why Pain was summoned? Was it the Rinnegans ability, or was Pain no longer an actual human

If the ninjas could summon each other, wouldnt it have an incredible impact on the transmission of information and technology?

Orochimaru himself was really not sure that he would be able to defeat Deva Path of Pain, especially since he had just performed Living Corpse Reincarnation and abandoned his old body

Yahiko-sama.

Ueharas words interrupted Orochimarus imagination before it ran wild. The youngster pointed to Orochimaru and said to Pain, Weve run into the Akatsukis traitor.

Orochimaru?

Pain raised his eyes and turned towards Orochimaru before stretching out his palm, Then hurry up and deal with it. I dont have much time left here Bansho Tennin!

A strange gravitational force pulled Orochimaru towards Pains position!

Orochimaru didnt want to sit still, so he spat a long snake out from his mouth and spit out the Kusanagi hidden in his mouth, stabbing in Pains direction!

s.h.i.+nra Tensei!

A repulsive force burst out, knocking Orochimaru away at an even faster speed!

The one-sided battle ended. Orochimaru did not have any strength to fight back, so he was beaten half to death by the Deva Path of Pains two techniques!

Mangetsu, Kisame, or Zabuza all looked at the Deva Path of Pain with horror on their faces.

Orochimaru, whom the three people couldnt beat just now, was defeated by this man wearing a black robe with red clouds in a few seconds, and he didnt even face any resistance!

Alright.

Deva Path Pain calmly retracted his palm, ignoring the tattered-looking Orochimaru in the distance, and turned his head to look at the surrounding Kisame and the other two. They bowed their heads, so he looked towards the youngster next to them, Are they also enemies?

Mangetsu and the others expressions suddenly became tense.

Uehara shook his head and explained softly, They are Swordsmen of the Mist from Hidden Mist Village. They are the people I recruited from the Land of Water this time.

It was Pains turn to be speechless.

The mission that was handed over to Uehara only required him to recruit Kisame. Why did he recruit other people? Were they reserve members in case Kisame died?

Konans disciple was unexpectedly capable!

Akatsuki had always lacked human resources, so Uehara recruiting so many alternate candidates saved them the trouble of finding new members

Besides them

Uehara carefully considered his next sentence before continuing softly, Does Yahiko-sama know senior Tobis true ident.i.ty?

Uehara, why are you asking about that?

Pains expression had changed. At heart, he didnt really want to reveal the fact that Tobi was Uchiha Madara since he had a lot of involvement in it.

But after thinking about it for a while, Pain pacified Uehara again, Konan has returned to the base. Wait till you get back, and Ill get your teacher to tell you!

Wait

Thats not how this is supposed to happen!

If he purely wanted to deal with Orochimaru, there was no need for him to summon the Deva Path of Pain. Ueharas main purpose was to deter the secretly lurking Obito.

As long as Uehara informed Pain in advance that Obito wanted to a.s.sa.s.sinate their team, he would be safe from his attack.

Uehara hurriedly explained, Yahiko-sama, I ran into Konohas Hatake Kakas.h.i.+ a few days ago. He came into contact with senior Tobi, but he called him Obito

After speaking, when Uehara noticed Pain still disapproving, he continued, adding, Senior Tobi wanted to kill me after hearing this name. Fortunately, teacher Konan gave me 100 million Explosive Tags. It was only thanks to that that I managed to escape

He was going to kill you?

Pains brows couldnt help but frown, He wants to kill you just because his name was leaked out?

The matter had become far more complicated.

The past scenes appeared in Pains mind. Back then, the mysterious masked man and Kazuzu had appeared in front of them. He called himself Ninja Worlds Asura, Uchiha Madara, and claimed to be the one who guided those with the Rinnegan.

During that period, Danzo and Hanzo the Salamander conspired to encircle and destroy the growing Akatsuki, including their leader Yahiko, who died in battle. Only Nagato, Konan, and he survived.

If the mysterious masked mans real name was Obito and a Konoha Ninja, there had to be a conspiracy behind it!

Konohas Danzo joined Hanzo to encircle them after all.

Another one of Konohas ninjas then showed up to guide Nagato. He wouldnt believe it if they told him that they werent related.

Doubly so because, right before the appearance of the mysterious masked man and Zetsu, Yahiko had rejected their proposal. Immediately after that, Akatsuki was encircled by Danzo and the Amegakures ninjas!

Pain stood there, thinking for a while, his face suddenly turned gloomy, he suddenly opened his mouth, That guy could he be a spy sent by Danzo?

Uehara didnt quite understand Pains thought process. His face showed a bewildered look, This is just information I got by chance

After speaking, Uehara looked at Orochimaru on the ground and suddenly added, Wait, I just remembered Orochimaru mentioned earlier that Obito was one of Konohas heroes who died in battle. Orochimaru must know some information about him!

Good job!

Pains eyes lit up, and he praised him approvingly. Then he extended his hand and stroked Ueharas hair and softly said, Uehara, the Land of Water is too dangerous for you now, leave immediately!???????????. ?o?

Should I take Orochimaru back?

Uehara nodded, then he looked towards Orochimarus direction. The originally tattered Orochimaru seemed to have recovered a lot

Pain shook his head, and his cold voice stopped Ueharas actions, That guy has already run away!

Ill chase him!

Just as Uehara began to charge ahead, the Deva Path of Pain grabbed Ueharas clothes. He said solemnly, Dont worry, there is another member of the Akatsuki who is also a Konoha Ninja. He and Konan have returned to the base, so we can check if hes also Konohas spy

Pain could not use too much Chakra in the Land of Water.

Pain had nothing to fear if he was in Akatsukis base. But he only needed to control the other Missing-nin from Konoha and to obtain Obitos information.

Mr. Itachi?

Uehara had a dazed expression on his face. That guy was actually Konohas spy!

If Itachi wanted to free himself from being suspected as a spy, wouldnt he have to spit out information on Obito?

Once Itachi knew the mysterious masked mans true ident.i.ty as Obito, how would he treat the ninja who helped kill his fellow clan members?

Uehara really wanted to see the two oscar-winning actors turn against each other!

Uchiha Madara should also be terrifying

As for Obito If it werent for his death and becoming Konohas hero, he probably would have become a stain on the Uchiha clans name!
