Starting with Ryujin Jakka, I choose to join the Akatsuki organization

There was no special expression on everyone's face.

Hidan said, "Ah, are we finally going to start the plan to capture the tailed beasts? I've been waiting for this plan for a long time."

"Capture the tailed beasts?" Sasori said in a dull voice, "It seems that you have made sufficient preparations, leader."

Pain could not deny, "Then let me introduce the situation of the tailed beasts first. Zetsu, the rest is up to you."

The ground squirmed, and Zetsu, with a pitcher plant on his head, slowly emerged from the surface.

Deidara couldn't help but complain, "This guy's appearance is always very special."

"There are nine tailed beasts in total," Zetsu got straight to the point, "In order to facilitate the collection, we plan to start with the One-Tailed Beast. The One-Tailed Beast's jinchūriki is the Kazekage of Sand Village, named Gaara. You should be familiar with this name."

"Gaara?" Sasori said with interest, "When I was still in the Sand Village, that kid wasn't born yet. I didn't expect that after only a few years of me leaving, that kid has become the Kazekage. The Sand Village still does things in the same old-fashioned way as before."

Zetsu continued to introduce, "The One-Tailed Jinchuriki is not difficult to deal with. What is difficult is the identity of the Jinchuriki. If you want to capture the Jinchuriki, you must first break through the Sand Village. The task is of a certain difficulty. Who is willing to carry out this task?"

Everyone remained silent for a while.

After a while, Sasori stepped forward, "Since this is the village I used to stay in, I must accept this mission. By the way, I can also meet those old friends from the past."

"Yes." Pain agreed.

"If Brother Sasori is going, then as his partner, I must go too." Deidara licked his lips excitedly, "It might be nice to let the Sand Village see my art."

Pain nodded, "Then this mission will be——"

Before he finished speaking, Hikari, who had been silent all the time, spoke up, "Mission, include me."

Everyone looked at Hikari in confusion.

Pain was confused, "You just completed a mission, do you want to participate in this mission as well? Don't you need a rest?"

Hikari shook his head.

Pain was a little embarrassed.

Deidara was very unhappy, "Newcomer, do you look down on me and Brother Sasori? The two of us are completely enough, and we don't need help from others!"

"I am the only one who can complete the mission." Hikari looked at him calmly and said, "You two don't need to go."

"You!" Deidara's forehead was bulging with anger.

There was also a hint of murderous intent in the eyes of Sasori.

The other members were just watching the fun.

Pain held his forehead with a headache, "Don't quarrel with your companions, Mr. Hikari, what you said is too arrogant, please be more friendly."

"I'm just telling the truth." Hikari remained calm.

"Bastard! I'm going to blow you up!" Deidara took out a clay bomb.

The masked man Tobi quickly stopped him, "Senior Deidara, please calm down, companions can't just attack each other casually, the leader will be angry!"

Deidara glanced at Pain's face.

A black line appeared on Pain's forehead.

Deidara reluctantly put away the bomb, "You can't attack your companions, but it's always okay to compete. Leader, I want to fight him! Let this newcomer who doesn't know his place learn some rules!"

"Competition?" Pain looked at Hikari.

"Whatever." Hikari raised his head slightly.

"Since you have agreed, then you can go fight outside." Pain was helpless.

Deidara immediately walked out angrily.

The other members also wanted to follow him out to watch the fun.

But Hikari stood there without moving, "Don't waste time, just fight here."

"Right here?" Deidara was reluctant, "What if the base building is blown up? This is our only base."

"Don't worry." Hikari lowered his eyes, "You won't have a chance to attack."

Deidara was stunned.

The other members were also frozen.

Even Uchiha Itachi couldn't help but whisper, "The newcomer has such a big tone."

"Do you think you are strong after defeating Kisame?" Deidara's face was full of anger, "Kisame was just careless before! Besides, I am not weak to Kisame!"

Hikari did not speak.

Deidara gritted his teeth and took out a clay bomb, "Explosion Style, Clay Bomb——"

Swish!

Before he could finish his words, Hikari instantly crossed the ten-meter distance and stood in front of Deidara.

Deidara was so frightened that his body trembled, "So… so fast…"

Hikari gently placed his hand on Deidara's shoulder, "Hadō no..."

Before he finished speaking, Deidara immediately jumped back and distanced himself.

Hikari was a little surprised, "Are you aware of the danger? That's a good insight."

"That was a close call." Deidara's forehead was already sweating, "I didn't feel the fluctuation of chakra, but if I was attacked by him, I would definitely die. What's going on with this strong danger signal?"

"You should be a pure physical ninja." Deidara looked at Hikari, "After understanding your type, it is not difficult to defeat you, as long as you don't get close to me. And it just so happens that my bomb can attack from a distance."

Hikari didn't answer and slowly drew out his Zanpakuto.

"You can't cut me with a knife, I won't let you get close to me." Deidara snorted.

Hikari didn't rush over but murmured, "All things are ashes, the flowing blade is like fire."
