Chapter 198: Such a Hidden Rain Village has No Meaning to Exist
Flying southwest all the way from the Land of Wind. The moment she crossed the border line and entered the territory of the Land of Rain. The scorching temperature dropped instantly. Pattering raindrops fell from high altitude.
The climate of constant rain was no different from Konan's memory. Only the places seen along the way were extremely dilapidated. Full of sin and chaos.
Her eyes grew colder and colder.
The self of this world and Nagato had only been dead for more than a decade, yet the Land of Rain had become such a ghostly appearance. No order, no rules to speak of.
Killing, robbing, fighting, etc. Flying all the way, the criminal acts seen were countless. This country... had degenerated into a carnival country for criminals.
Phew...
Konan let out a long breath, suppressing her killing intent, flying down quickly and landing on the water surface. Then she walked slowly toward the entrance of the Hidden Rain Village.
"Hey!!" In front of the dilapidated gate stood two ruffian-like ninja guards. Licking their lips, they stared at Konan with malicious eyes.
"Unfamiliar face, first time in the Hidden Rain Village?"
"Hehehe, looks like you don't know the rules yet. Let this young master teach you personally. It will be very happy, happy—"
His voice stopped abruptly. Together with the other ninja, they lost their breath, falling to the ground as corpses. These should be ninjas of the Mujina Bandits.
Konan walked into the Hidden Rain Village expressionlessly. Looking around, there was only a slight familiarity, almost completely strange. The buildings and environment in memory were thoroughly changed.
Red and green neon signs flashed one by one.
[Selling Scientific Ninja Tools, Ninjutsu, Forbidden Jutsu]
[Selling Human Bloodline Organs]
[Erotic Izakaya]
[Mechanical Prosthetics and Body Modification]
[Intelligence Trafficking]
Etc...
Advertisement signs dazzled the eyes. Various things absolutely illegal in the Ninja World were openly displayed, traded, and sold here.
Konan walked forward. Raising her head slightly, she looked at the tallest building in the center of the village. That used to be the Akatsuki headquarters, and the place Nagato liked to stay the most. Now, four huge characters [Mujina Bandits] hung on the high wall. The building as a whole was also remodeled into blood red, hideous and vicious.
The surroundings gradually quieted down. The quarreling and cursing just now stopped. Everyone around stared at Konan with malicious faces. They didn't smell the same criminal scent on her.
This was a newcomer, or an ordinary person who accidentally intruded into this sinful zone. For such a person... only one fate awaited: to become prey for all of them, divided and eaten!
[This old lady wants that head of smooth long purple hair!]
[Hehe, I like the color of her eyes. Those eyes are mine!]
[This figure, this face, are you sure you don't want to taste it first...]
[Taste it first, then squeeze all the value out of her body!]
All kinds of filthy language and shocking words came from everywhere. Seemed like they had already decided her fate.
"Here..." Konan stopped suddenly, standing in the center of the Hidden Rain Village. "Is no longer the Hidden Rain Village..."
Looking up at the unchanging dark clouds in the sky, letting the cool rain drip onto her face.
The Hidden Rain Village more than a decade later... had become foul, full of filth and sin.
"Already... has no necessity to exist!"
Konan's eyes were freezing cold. Visible white cold air emerged from her body surface. Biting cold, morose. With her as the center, it swept the surroundings.
At a speed visible to the naked eye, the ice layer froze everything outward with crack, crack, crack sounds. Whether it was the incoming criminals or those foul buildings, all were frozen inside.
In an instant.
The noisy Hidden Rain Village quieted down completely, as if turned into a world of ice and snow. Frozen whole. The figures inside, with hideous and ferocious faces, were lifelike in the ice blocks.
Even that tallest building was also frozen. The boss and high-level cadres of the Mujina Bandits inside the building didn't know what happened. Together with other Hidden Rain Village criminals, they became human ice sculptures inside the ice layer.
Under this mighty power comparable to a natural disaster, these criminals, at most Kage-level, had not a shred of resistance. The so-called scientific ninja tools were even more useless. Waiting for them was only death, settling everything!
Konan hovered in mid-air, looking coldly at the frozen Hidden Rain Village below. The existence of these criminals only blasphemed the Hidden Rain Village, giving no peace to Nagato and the others of this world.
With the trio dead, the Hidden Rain Village had lost the meaning to continue existing.
"So... be destroyed..."
Konan stomped down.
Bang!
The huge frozen layer, along with the large number of criminals inside and the entire Hidden Rain Village, shattered loudly. Turning into countless ice particles, dissipating into nothingness.
The Hidden Rain Village disappeared completely, leaving the place empty.
Rumble!
Konan opened up the outer sea surface, and endless seawater submerged this open space. Henceforth, there would be no trace of the Hidden Rain Village's existence in the Ninja World. Forever sunk underwater.
"Konan." Alex flew up. "Are you okay..."
"Alex." Konan looked at him. "Don't worry, I just wanted to vent."
She separated paper clones one by one, almost filling this sky.
"Kill! Kill all criminals doing evil in the Land of Rain for me!"
Kill until no one dares to commit crimes again, kill until they are terrified! Regardless of the future, she would thoroughly purify the Land of Rain today. Let this hometown in memory have not a trace of sin left! Let the trio of this world rest in peace.
Rustle, rustle!
The paper clones, all with faces full of killing intent, flapped their wings and flew in all directions of the Land of Rain. Today, all criminals in the Land of Rain would suffer a head-on blow. Paying the price of their lives for their past criminal acts! Making them regret coming to this country to do evil!
Konan let out a long breath, her agitated emotions gradually calming down.
"Alex." She asked complicatedly, "Can the Nagato, Yahiko, and the other me of this world be resurrected?"
"This..." Alex hesitated for a moment, finally saying in a deep voice, "At this stage, probably not possible; more than a decade has passed, their bodies can't be found, unable to use Edo Tensei."
"Is that so..." Konan was silent for a long time. "In that case, no need to force it."
Matters of the Land of Rain and Hidden Rain Village were basically handled.
Next...
