From the Navy Admiral to the Gotei 13

Diarmait's mention of this at this time was just right, and for some reason, I had a better impression of this guy Diarmait.

only…

"Could you please tone down your gaze a little? It makes me feel uncomfortable." Scorpion said after thinking for a moment.

Diarmait was stunned for a moment. Am I not showing my specialness and optimism towards you?

Otherwise, would it be so obvious?

After all, he was a general and he could show nothing on his face. He did this to let Scorpion feel that he valued him.

It seems like this guy doesn't appreciate it.

Diarmait retracted his gaze and said, "Hahaha, I thought this was more sincere."

"What exactly do you want to do?" Scorpion was silent for a while and couldn't help asking.

"That's right. The ninja world is so big. Don't you feel lonely wandering around here alone?" Diarmuid thought for a moment and spoke.

I have the impression that Sasori is lonely inside. His parents died very early at the hands of Hatake Gogokai's father, Hatake Sakumo. That was during the last Ninja World War.

Therefore, he lacked love and care. Although his grandmother Chiyo loved him very much, she could not make up for the harm.

Because of the complexity and fragility in his heart, Scorpio finally embarked on the path of being a human puppet.

So Diarmait thought that using the reason of loneliness to persuade this guy to partner up with him would be a better approach, right?

As Diarmait was thinking about what to say next, Scorpion said coldly, "Not at all."

Diarmait's face twitched slightly, and he felt a little angry. He said, "Don't act like you're rejecting me. I'm telling you all this because I think you're quite capable, so I want to invite you to join us."

"We? Who do you mean?" Scorpion looked at Diarmait and asked.

"Of course it's Kakuzu and I," Diarmait said.

"So that's how it is. I thought there was some organization behind you." Scorpion breathed a sigh of relief after hearing that.

In fact, he had absolutely no interest in any organization or anything like that, and even found it troublesome...

The reason why he joined Akatsuki later was somewhat forced.

After I went in, oh my god, it smells so good!

"No, if there is one, does the Bear Kingdom Gold Exchange count? I'm the boss there," Diarmait said with a laugh. Scorpion looked at Diarmait in surprise, then asked, "Is the Gold Exchange so powerful? Are all nations like you?" "No, I'm an exception." Diarmait waved his hand, then said, "What do you think? Would you consider my invitation?" He even imitated Newgate, extending his hand to Scorpion, almost saying, "Be my son." Considering Scorpion's background, if he had truly met someone like Newgate, he might have accepted.

Scorpion looked at Diarmait in silence for a while, thinking about this question.

It's not impossible for him to team up with Diarmait and Jiaodu. He is a proud and arrogant person, which is a common problem among the strong. Naturally, he has no interest in weaklings who hold him back.

But whether it is Kakuzu or Diarmait, they are all people who can be recognized and looked up to by Scorpion.

So there is nothing unacceptable about traveling with them.

The issue is….

"What is your purpose? What do you want to do by partnering with me?" Scorpion asked.

That's right, if the two of them have something troublesome to do, Scorpio still feels that he is not interested and is not interested.

He prefers studying human puppets and science.

Yes, in fact, Scorpio is also a great scientist.

If I were to major in something, it would probably be ergonomics and biotechnology, right?

In the original story, he had studied many things with Orochimaru, a research maniac. Of course, he also disliked Orochimaru. Perhaps it was because the two of them couldn't agree on the topic of "art and immortality"?

However, the fact that he can cooperate with Orochimaru in scientific research is enough to show Scorpion's talent in this area.

"Purpose?" Diarmait was silent for a moment, then said, "Actually, I don't have any purpose yet. Kakuzu saw that I was rich and didn't care about money, so he took the initiative to team up with me. He doesn't have any purpose. If you have to say it, it's just to make money. As for me... I haven't thought about it yet, but in the general direction, I should have some conflicts with the five major ninja villages in the future..."

There is definitely a contradiction. He is still thinking about Konoha's Sharingan, Wood Release and other messy things. These are Konoha's great treasures!

Can Konoha give it to him for free?

That's definitely not possible with 2.9.

So most likely, you can only rob it!

There will definitely be conflicts in the future.

"The five great ninja villages?" Scorpion smiled, then said, "That's interesting."

"It's probably mainly Konoha, the rest are okay." Diarmuid smiled again.

"Konoha?" After hearing this, Scorpion was silent for a while and seemed to be in a fluctuating mood.

Scorpion is hostile towards Konoha, but it doesn't reach the point of extreme hatred.

His main hatred is the White Fang of Konoha, Kakashi's father, Hatake Sakumo.

But the problem is that Hatake Sakumo has already committed suicide, and I don’t know what to do with the hatred in my heart.

As a result, he was also weird. He actually transferred this hatred to the Third Kazekage.

Because he felt that it was the negligence of the Third Kazekage that led to the deterioration of the war situation, and the Konoha ninjas reached the Wind Country and killed his parents.

And then... then he naturally turned the Third Kazekage into a human puppet, which indirectly led to the Third Ninja World War.

Now that the Third Kazekage is dead, Scorpion doesn't have much hatred in his heart, but now that he heard that Diarmuid might do something to Konoha in the future, he is still a little bit looking forward to it.

After thinking for a while, Scorpion said, "Can I think about it?"

"Of course, I don't like forcing others." Diarmait said with a grin.

Chapter 476: The power of the devil fruit, the ninjas were stunned.

For the next few days, Diarmait did not receive any reply from Scorpion.

And this guy also started to get busy. He would often go out mysteriously and come back with some new information.

Diarmait guessed that he was meeting someone.

Jiaodu is a guy who can't sit still. After finishing his daily practice, he will mutter to himself.

"We've been delayed for such a long time, and only got 50,000 taels. We're really at a loss. What if we never get to wait for that Uchiha Kagami to show up? Do we have to keep wasting time here?" Kakuzu said unhappily as he sat next to Diarmait.

After a brief pause, he added, "How about I continue teaching you how to be a ninja? Just give me what you like..."

The corner of Diarmait's eyes twitched slightly. You really never miss any opportunity!

"You're really taking me for a ride, aren't you?" Diarmait complained. Then he added, "Didn't I give you all the money from the gold exchange? Now you're in charge of our finances. How can I have any money?"

Kakuzu was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "That's right."

This was one of the reasons why Jiao Du recognized Diarmait. He tentatively mentioned this matter at the time, saying that he would be responsible for managing financial issues after forming a team.

Diarmait agreed without hesitation and handed over most of the liquid funds obtained from exchanging gold to Kakuzu.

This is the most convincing action for Kakuzu!

It also represents that the mutual trust between the two parties has been completely established.

Just as the two were chatting, another bird flew over from a distance, with the familiar appearance and familiar feathers.

The bird chirped twice, and Kakuzu raised his arms, and it came down, spitting out a small scroll from its mouth.

Kakuzu opened the scroll, took a look, and then said, "Let's go. We can finally take action. That guy found the Uchiha Mirror."

Diarmait grinned, stood up and said, "Let's go!"

Diarmuid didn't know how powerful Uchiha Kagami was, but judging from his fame, as one of the three current signature figures of the Uchiha clan, he should be quite strong.

He studied under the Second Hokage, who trusted him very much. Their relationship should have been quite close. Later, the Second Hokage died to save them.

Then he might have opened the Mangekyō Sharingan.

Diarmuid didn't know much about this guy. As far as he could remember, he didn't play any role in the main story. He just appeared as a special background character.

Later, for some unknown reason, he died.

There is no reason for his death, and there are many speculations. However, Diarmuid has now come to this world. During the period when the Third Shinobi World War began, Uchiha Kagami was still alive and very famous.

Then he most likely died in the Third Shinobi World War.

It's even possible that it was arranged by the old conspirator Danzo.

After all, from every angle, Uchiha Kagami is someone who has the qualifications and strength to compete for the position of Hokage.

There were conflicts within Konoha regarding the Uchiha clan, but after the Third Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, came to power, he still adopted some gentle measures.

Therefore, the internal conflicts are not particularly sharp now. As the elders who co-founded the Konoha Village with the Senju clan, it is one of the top three wealthy families in the ninja world.

It seems reasonable for the Uchiha clan to want to produce a Hokage.

In the original story, Sasuke and Itachi's father, Uchiha Fugaku, was the person that the Uchiha clan placed their hopes for becoming Hokage on.

Because at that time, Uchiha Fugaku was the patriarch of the Uchiha clan and his age was more suitable. Uchiha Kagami had already died. As for Shisui, he was too young. Although he was strong, he was not suitable.

But it's different now. Uchiha Kagami is not dead yet. He comes from a wealthy family in the ninja world and is a disciple of the second Hokage. He has a good relationship with the Senju clan and an even better relationship with the Hokage lineage. He is a good friend of Sarutobi Hiruzen.

So from these perspectives, he is undoubtedly more suitable than Uchiha Fugaku to represent the Uchiha clan and become the Hokage.

In fact, Sarutobi Hiruzen also thought so in his heart, of course, it was just an idea.

The relationship between Uchiha Kagami and the two sides can just be an opportunity to ease or even resolve the internal conflict in Konoha.

If he becomes Hokage, the future of Konoha will definitely be different.

The problem is... It's useless for Sarutobi Hiruzen, the Third Hokage, to think this way, because Danzo, who considers himself the first choice for Konoha Hokage, doesn't think it's possible.

Of course, he wasn't just targeting Uchiha Kagami, but all the candidates who were qualified to succeed the Hokage position, Danzo disliked them all...

After traveling through the mountains and forests of the Land of Rice for a while, Kakuzu and Diarmait heard the sound of a battle unfolding ahead.

It sounded like it was not just one or two people, but a large group of people fighting.

Soon, the two of them followed the sound, and then, after being signaled by Scorpion who was hiding in the dark, the three of them hid behind a rock together.

There is still some distance from the battlefield, but I can still see clearly what I can see.

The ninjas of Konoha are fighting with the ninjas of the Hidden Cloud Village.

At present, it seems that the Hidden Cloud Village has the upper hand. Almost all the ninjas of the Hidden Cloud Village are from the fighting faction, and each of them is very good at ninjutsu. In this kind of encounter, when the ninjas of both sides fight together, ninjutsu actually has more advantages.

Because when using other ninjutsu, whether it is fire escape or something else, the range is often very large, and if you are not careful, your companions will be killed in the melee.
