Chapter 814 Meeting Akatsuki

This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl

After returning home, Neji learned that his father had returned back to the village in the early morning, however, he was injured and couldn’t return home and was kept in Konoha Hospital for treatment and questioning purposes.

Treatment is kind of obvious considering Hizashi’s injuries, however, questioning was unexpected.

Normally, he wouldn’t be put under such serious questioning considering his identity, but because there is the involvement of the Amatsukami Organization that the village cares about, Hizashi had no other choice.

But even if that’s the case, Hizashi didn’t know whether to reveal the details.

The cause of this incident is a secret meeting between the Hyuga Clan and the Otsutsuki Clan on the moon. This matter was regarded as a top-level secret by the main family, and the main family forbid him to reveal any information related to that meeting, so when facing the village’s questioning, Hizashi didn’t reveal everything from the start.

Because Hizashi didn’t reveal everything, the Hokage faction had no choice but to put pressure on the main family of the Hyuga Clan to reveal the reason behind Amatsukami’s involvement in the Hyuga Clan’s affairs, who the mysterious enemy is, and how they are involved with the Hyuga Clan.

From a certain perspective, it is in the best interest of the Hyuga Clan to reveal these details to the Hokage Faction, after all, these distant relatives on the moon don’t seem to have any good intentions. Hizashi’s condition is a clear sign that they are hostile towards the Hyuga Clan. So reporting the details of these distant relatives will not only earn the trust and support of the village, and the main family will be able to protect itself with the help of Konoha.

However, after the members of the main family learned Toneri’s purpose behind this meeting, the main family was reluctant to reveal these details.

Although the main family is unaware of what Tenseigan is, based on Toneri’s behaviour and his eagerness of wanting it shows that it isn’t something simple. And considering the way, Toneri talked with Hizashi, it seemed that he was certain that the Tenseigan is within the Hyuga Clan.

As the main family of the Hyuga Clan realized the implications of this information, a serious disagreement arose in the main family.

The Patriarch Hiashi believed that they should tell the truth to the village, reveal the existence of Otsutsuki and Tenseigan to Hokage-sama and ask for their support, however, the elders of the main family were opposed to Hiashi’s approach and believed that rather than worrying about Hizashi and the village, they should focus on understanding the Tenseigan, and finding out what it is.

The elders of the main family believe that if someone as powerful as the Otsutsuki also wants to obtain the Tenseigan, then it must be something extraordinary, and as long as they manage to find it, the pressure from the village would mean nothing.

This disagreement within the main family caused them to remain indecisive and they didn’t reveal anything.

The attitude of the main family wasn’t hidden from the eyes of Sandaime Hokage.

By now it’s quite obvious that the Hyuga Clan is trying to conceal important information from the village. The information could be related to Amatsukami or a potential enemy.

Since Hyuga Clan refused to reveal the information, the relationship between the Hokage Faction and Hyuga Clan became tense. This is also the reason why Neji felt a strange atmosphere within the Hyuga District.

Because Hyuga Clan refused to reveal critical information despite Hokage-sama’s repeated requests and questioning, a lot of Anbu were instructed to keep surveillance around the Hyuga Clan.

The presence of Anbus around the Hyuga District couldn’t be hidden from the eyes of the Hyuga Clansmen, and this caused the Hyuga Clansmen to feel nervous and uneasy.

On the other hand, as Deidara returned to Konoha, he was also left speechless upon being put under questioning.

Firstly it was just casual questioning from Onoki about where he went and what he did, however as Deidara revealed details, things changed.

The next set of questions that he faced was the identity of the person he fought, what were his name and his origin.

Deidara had no answer, and the reason is also obvious, he didn’t know these details, to begin with.

However, everyone refused to believe him, even Onoki was a little doubtful this time, and couldn’t help but consider the possibility that Deidara might really be Dojin of Amatsukami.

Hizashi insisted that it was Dojin who saved him.

Coincidently, Deidara was also present in that place around the same time.

This can’t be a simple coincidence, everyone thought this.

And no matter what Deidara said, everyone refused to believe him.

Meanwhile, everyone started to use their own resources and network to carry out their own investigation.

Somewhere in the Land of Tea

Ka Ka Ka Ka KA ka

With an ear-piercing mechanical sound, a puppet walked through a dark passage.

The puppet was alone, and it didn’t seem anyone was controlling it, still, it was moving orderly and walking deeper into the cave.

After a minute of walking, the puppet stopped, and spoke apologetically, “Sorry to keep you guys waiting.”

At this moment, several figures walked out of the shadows and revealed themselves.

“What took you so long? We almost thought that you got a cold feat.” Said one of the figures sarcastically.

The puppet chuckled, “Hahaha.. well I don’t know about the cold feat, but I seem to have the rusty feat, so it’s difficult to walk. Anyhow, I apologize for being late, and I greet the members of the legendary Akatsuki Organization.”

That’s right, these people are members of the Akatsuki Organization, and all of them are dressed in Akatsuki’s turtle neck Cloak. At the centre is Tendo Pain, and beside him is Konan. Then there is Uchiha Shinichi and Sasori.

Sasori curiously looked at the guy and said, “A puppet huh… interesting guy… are you sure you want to send this puppet and not come in person?”

Shinichi also added, “You have been inquiring about us for a while now, and repeatedly expressed your intention of wanting to meet us… and now that we are finally here, you send this puppet… are you looking down on us?”

The puppet glanced at Shinibhi for a while, then it looked at Tendo Pain, and said, “I wish to make a deal with the Akatsuki Organization.”

Shinichi muttered in annoyance, “You got some nerve ignoring me.”

The puppet remained silent and continued to look at Tendo.

At this time Konan asked, “What do you want from us?”

The puppet spread its arms and explained, “As you can see, this puppet of mine is broken beyond repair. So, I want the puppet maker of your organization to make me the strongest puppet in the world. Something that wouldn’t lose to anyone!”

Sasori was surprised by the other party’s desire, and asked, “Well, it’s not impossible, however, such a thing has a price, what do you offer in return?”

The puppet raised its finger and spoke, “I will give a piece of information in return.”

Sasori raised an eyebrow, “Information? What kind of information do you think you can give us in exchange for the puppet that you want?”

The puppet smiled, “The kind of information no one except me knows in the Shinobi World, and something that you people desperately want to know.”

Shinichi muttered in surprise, “Is there such a thing?”

The puppet nodded, “I have information about the origins of Amatsukami. I know where the base of operation of Amatsukami is, and I know the identity of the leader of Amatsukami… I bet that no one except me knows this information, and this is something you people desperately want to know.”

Sasori exclaimed in shock, “You have information about Amatsukami?”

Not only Sasori but Tendo Pain and Konan were also the same.

As the puppet said, Akatsuki desperately wants information about Amatsukami. Compared to information about Amatsukami, a puppet would be nothing!

Only Shinichi narrowed his eyes, coldly looking at the puppet, a hint of killing intent hidden in his eyes, as he thought, ‘Does it really know something about Amatsukami?’
