Chapter 343: Kawakaze’s Clever Plan
"Wonderful, professional."
Although it was their first meeting, Nonō had truly impressed Kakuzu with her abilities. Managing to assess the Land of Rain's forces within just a week was no small feat.
"You're too kind," Nonō said humbly, offering a polite smile to Kakuzu.
"It really is very complicated," Yahiko said, rubbing his temples. The chaos in the Land of Rain was far worse than Sensei had described.
"It doesn't matter if it's complicated or not. The worst that can happen is we push our way through," Konan said firmly, her tone carrying a hint of recklessness.
"Brainless," Kakuzu muttered with disdain.
"Who are you calling brainless?" Konan shot back, standing up in a flash. It seemed a verbal fight was about to erupt.
"Stop it," Yahiko interjected, pulling Konan back down with one hand. The tension eased as she reluctantly settled.
Nonō watched the scene unfold with amusement. Kakuzu didn't seem as brutal as the rumors had suggested.
"We can't act recklessly. We're on our own from here on out," Nagato said, his tone steady. He understood well that Konoha wouldn't be offering any support for this mission.
"By the way, what is our mission this time?" Nonō asked, still unsure after their arrival in the Land of Rain. She genuinely had no idea what they were supposed to accomplish.
