Chapter 24 Nagato and Kari’s speculations
After arriving at the training ground, the members of Akatsuki looked at each other with shock on their faces.
Inside the training ground, the originally flat open space became bumpy, and the large trees planted around it were all scattered. The most eye-catching thing was the extremely conspicuous oval pit in the center of the training ground.
Judging from the scope of the pit, this must have been caused by a very powerful ninjutsu.
To be fair, even if several people joined together to perform earth escape ninjutsu, they could cause such large-scale damage, and the type of ninjutsu, needless to say, would have a lower destructive power on the terrain.
Huali was better than the others, but the surprise on her face betrayed her mood.
After recovering from the shock, Huali came to Bai Ye and pointed at the members of Akatsuki behind her and said, "Master Bai Ye, these seniors seem to have something to do with you."
Bai Ye nodded slightly and walked towards the members of Akatsuki.
As early as when he used the detonating tag to bomb Nagato, he was ready to be discovered. The Akatsuki base was only a small area, and it was very difficult not to cause trouble.
However, even if he exposed some of his strength, he had to complete the competition with Nagato.
First, in order to make Nagato feel a sense of crisis, he took the initiative to study the Samsara Eye and develop technologies such as the Six Paths of Pain, so that he could get rewards from Nagato as soon as possible.
After all, among the three giants of Akatsuki, Konan's battle is basically linked to the number of detonating tags, and there is little hope of improving her strength in the short term, while Nagato is simply an untapped treasure with great growth potential.
As for Yahiko... he just needs to do his job as the leader of Akatsuki, and there is little hope of counting on him.
Second, he wants to improve his status by showing his strength.
Although he was also one of the team leaders of Akatsuki before, his status was not as good as Yahiko and others who established Akatsuki. Even if he brought back enough supplies for the organization, it would be difficult for his status to be greatly improved.
After all, he went out with Konan and Nagato, which would inevitably arouse suspicion from other aspects.
Coming to the side of the Akatsuki members, Bai Ye put on a smile and said, "I am sparring with Senior Nagato, why are you here? Do you want to join the training?"
Hearing this, the Akatsuki ninja glanced at the open space on the side, and then quickly retracted his gaze.
How could their small bodies withstand a battle of this scale.
However, Bai Ye actually admitted that this big pit was created when he and Nagato were sparring. Doesn't it mean that Bai Ye also has the strength of being a jonin in the five major ninja villages, similar to Nagato!
"Master Bai Ye, we know that you are staying in the training ground. It was Chief Yahiko who asked you to go to the office. As for the training and sparring, we still have tasks to perform and don't have time for the time being."
After completing the task of passing the message, the Akatsuki members hurriedly found an excuse to leave.
After hearing the title of 'Master Bai Ye', Bai Ye showed a satisfied smile on his face. It feels good to show off in front of others. Now his status in the Akatsuki organization will be greatly improved.
But why did Yahiko look for him again? Is there any important task?
Forget it, I can just ask Yahiko in person when I get to the office. There is no need to think about it here.
However, there is one more thing to do before going to the office.
Returning to Nagato, Bai Ye chuckled and said:
"Nagato-senior, have you thought about how to use the power of the Samsara Eye? If you can't even beat me, you can't protect the ninjas around you."
Bai Ye's idea is to inspire Nagato through fighting and make Nagato want to become stronger.
At this time, Nagato, who had been thinking for a long time, asked with some doubts: "Bai Ye, why are you always obsessed with improving your strength? Isn't life good now? We don't need to become stronger."
After hearing this, Bai Ye fell into silence.
Before experiencing the annihilation of the Akatsuki organization, Nagato's practice of the Samsara Eye was really Buddhist. If he continues to be Buddhist, it will be detrimental to the development of the Akatsuki organization.
After a few seconds of silence, Bai Ye's face gradually became solemn, and he said in a tone of regret:
"Senior Nagato, you seem to have forgotten our identities. We were all orphans. You know better than me what we will encounter when we don't have enough power."
Nagato was stunned, and seemed to not understand Bai Ye's meaning.
"Chief Yahiko has something else to ask me, so I will leave for the time being."
Bai Ye did not waste any more time. After taking a deep look at Nagato, he prepared to leave the training ground.
Before leaving, Bai Ye deliberately waved his hand, revealing his arm oozing blood.
Hana, who was standing by, noticed Bai Ye's injured arm and came up to him and said, "Master Bai Ye, your arm seems to be injured. Do you need me to treat you?"
As she said that, Hua Li took out a small glass bottle with her blood in it, which could replace medical ninjutsu.
"It should be that he was injured by the Shinra Tensei just now... The impact of the repulsive force is too strong, but this kind of injury is not a big deal. It will heal automatically in a few hours. You should keep your blood for yourself." Bai Ye rejected Huali's kindness and resolutely left the training ground. Bai Ye was telling the truth. He really didn't need Huali's blood. He also had the physique of the Uzumaki clan. His self-healing ability was far superior to that of ordinary ninjas. Even if he was seriously injured, it would only take a few days for him to recover. The most important thing was that he wanted to take this opportunity to show his super healing ability.
Byakuya did not disappoint. Both Kari and Nagato noticed the injured arm. In their sight, the wound on Byakuya's arm was healing rapidly and soon returned to its original state.
Seeing this scene, Kari did not chase after him, but stayed where he was with Nagato.
In order to save Huali, he did not hesitate to offend Caoyin Village and took huge risks to attack the Caoyin Village building.
When faced with Nagato's unwillingness to train his samsara eye, Byakuya's hateful eyes and his back turned away were all gathered in their minds at this moment.
They seemed to understand why Bai Ye did these things.
If Byakuya was also an orphan of the Uzumaki clan, then everything would make sense.
As orphans of the Uzumaki clan, it is normal for Byakuya to show such a warm attitude towards them. He allowed them to quickly increase their strength in order to avoid the collapse of the Uzumaki Kingdom from happening again.
After pondering for a moment, Kari looked at Nagato and asked: "Senior Nagato, Lord Byakuya's wound just now healed very quickly. That should be the ability of our Uzumaki clan. Are there any other ninjas who can do it?"
"I have no idea…"
Nagato shook his head, then seemed to remember something, and then said: "However, Byakuya's perception ability is on par with mine, but Byakuya doesn't have red hair like us."
Kari said hesitantly: "Maybe Byakuya-sama did not inherit Uzumaki's red hair."
Nagato nodded slightly, seeming to agree with Kari's statement.
But there was one thing they didn't understand. Why did Bai Ye deliberately conceal the existence of the Uzumaki bloodline? Are there other reasons behind it?
At this time, Nagato and Kari suddenly remembered that Bai Ye had mentioned his life experience.
Could it be that even Byakuya himself doesn't know that he has the Uzumaki bloodline, and that he values them because of their companionship and the mutual attraction based on their bloodline!
