Chapter 176 Akatsuki's purpose changes, Pain's decision

"What kind of work is this, boss? Why are you in such a hurry? I want to play with the kids again, huh!" Deidara pouted and replied unhappily.

Pein: "This mission is related to the future direction of our organization. In short... it's very important."

Hearing this, the members were stunned and unconsciously quieted down, and then walked towards the Outer Path Statue together.

The fingertips of the Outer Path Statue are where the members of the Akatsuki organization usually hold meetings.

In an instant, Pein, Konan, Zetsu, Uchiha Itachi, Hoshigaki Kisame, Kakuzu, Hidan, Red Sand Scorpion, Deidara, nine figures, stood together on the nine fingers of the Outer Path Statue, quietly waiting for Pein to speak.

Just as Pein was about to speak, Fei suddenly jumped up and said with a chuckle: "Hehehe, seniors, let me join in the fun of this meeting."

Feidan glanced at Fei with disdain: "Huh? Fei! What are you, a trainee member, doing here!"

Feidan: "The seniors didn't mention me, but you mentioned me first! Feidan, don't forget that you joined the organization later than me. In terms of order, you are my junior, hum!"

Feidan: "Tsk! Who said I am better than you?"

Kakuzu: "Shut up, Feidan, you are just a little more difficult. In my opinion, you are the most useless, especially that broken ceremony, it's so smelly and long..."

Feidan Hearing this, he angrily said: "Kakuzu! What did you say?"

Kakuzu: "Don't waste time. If you make a sound again, I'll kill you!"

Hoshigaki Kisame: "Hehe, the Immortal Combination is quarreling again. I'm really not used to not seeing you quarreling every day. But speaking of this, Afei, why are you so free today? I've never seen you take the initiative to attend a meeting before..."

Afei: "Hehehe, Senior Kisame, today I just want to listen..."

After saying that, Afei turned his head and looked at Pein: "Boss, do you have any objection to me attending this meeting?"

"..."Pein didn't say anything, but was silent for a moment, then nodded slightly.

Seeing that the leader allowed it, the members didn't say anything more.

According to the rules, Afei is not qualified to attend formal meetings.

Pein never called him in meetings, and Afei never participated in them.

After all, the content of each meeting was given to Nagato by Obito under Afei's skin, and then Pein conveyed it to the members.

But today was different. This meeting was completely unilateral and spontaneous by Nagato, and Obito was not aware of it in advance.

He was very curious about what Pein was going to say.

Although Obito could eavesdrop in the dark, he didn't want to do so. He wanted to face Pein directly, which was also a deterrent.

Meeting, yes.

But before the meeting, the content of the meeting must be made clear to him in advance.

This inexplicable meeting made Obito a little unhappy.

Pein seemed to have sensed what Obito meant, but he was unmoved and spoke directly as the leader:

"From today on, we, Akatsuki...will change our organizational purpose."

"The previous purpose was divided into three stages."

"The first stage is to make money, establish the first war mercenary organization, recruit mercenaries to monopolize the market of ninja business; the second stage is to collect tailed beasts, start wars and help settle them; the third stage...is to conquer the world."

"I used to think so, because I think doing so can bring peace to the world, but now...my thoughts have changed."

"The birth of Akatsuki, Konan's child, gave me another idea."

"Now I want to skip the first and second stages..."

"Start directly from the third stage and conquer the world!"

"We don't have time, not for anything else, I just want my child to see that the world is peaceful when he grows up, no more wars, no more pain..."

"Go, collect the tailed beasts, right now..."
