Chapter 391: Act Of Treason
Some moments ago in the Land of Sharks.
Kaito and Sasori were seen moving slowly against the dark landscape.
Their recent mission had been a success, in which it involved delivering a package to an assassin that was planning to execute the feudal lord of this country.
Neither of these two Akatsuki members spoke much during the trek since Sasori was mainly thinking about why Kisame wasn’t sent on this mission instead.
Kaito, on the other hand, was more focused on Arthur’s disappearance. While the clone’s thoughts were clouded with a sense of urgency, he still kept his senses sharp enough not to be intercepted by bounty hunters.
Either way, both were eager to leave the Land of Sharks behind, knowing that the further they traveled, the safer they would be.
As they crossed the border, they each suddenly received a mental message from Pain.
"I need you two back in the Rain Village," his voice said. "There are matters that require your attention."
Sasori grumbled aloud, "Oh great."
His tone was sour, and he cast a glance at Kaito, as if asking what they had done to warrant such a random summons. Kaito didn’t answer immediately but instead looked out in the distance.
"Let’s get going," he finally said.
