Trees Chapter 228 Youth Has No Price, One Birthday Celebration Costs 500 Million

When Naruto, who was in a daze, heard Konan say that the Akatsuki had taken over a mission to perform at some rich guy's birthday party, his face became extremely strange.

‘Wait…’

‘Aren't we the righteous Akatsuki, dedicated to saving the world?!’

‘Since when did become an Idol Group?!’

It’s really hard to imagine members of the Akatsuki wearing the iconic Akatsuki’s robes and then performing at someone’s birthday party...

The sheer contrast was too ridiculous.

"I support this mission!"

"Now the Akatsuki organization needs money in many places, so performing at a party isn't a big deal."

Kakuzu was the first to stand up and declare that, as a member of the Akatsuki, he had no objections for this mission.

After all, he can make a lot of money from this mission.

Sasori and Deidara looked at each other, both of them feeling happy, as they were thinking the same thing.

‘Very good!’

‘With this money, it will be safe to research the new type of puppets!’

Sasori and Deidara stood up at the same time and said, "We don’t have any objections either."

Pain was very pleased to hear everyone's responses.

‘Sure enough, it is the old members who can set an example at critical moments.’

Then, he looked at everyone and said, "Everyone will participate in this mission."

At this point, Nagato didn't care anymore.

Over the years, the Akatsuki had made too many high-profile moves, so their identities were already widely known.

In addition, after being attacked twice recently…

What was even the point of hiding anymore?

"That…"

Kisame, who is still sitting in his seat, immediately met Pain’s Rinnegan glare.

Obviously, if he continues to talk, Pain wouldn’t hesitate to hit him with a Shinra Tensei.

So Kisame wisely kept his mouth shut, or else he would really die.

Naruto also didn’t have any objections.

It wasn’t that he couldn’t fund the Akatsuki himself, but making money still requires everyone’s joint efforts.

Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime.

...Of course, it definitely wasn’t because he wanted to see them all dance.

"Wait a moment........"

Sasuke suddenly spoke up.

Given his experience with Naruto’s antics, if the Akatsuki actually went through with this...

There was no telling if this would become blackmail material for the rest of their lives.

"Shut up!"

"Who are you, a newbie, to interrupt the leader?!"

Naruto clamped a hand over Sasuke’s mouth and quickly cast an apologetic look at Pain.

"Mmph… mmph…!"

"Sen... Leader, don't worry, this guy definitely has no objections."

Pain nodded after hearing this, but didn't seem to take it to heart.

After Naruto finished speaking, he whispered something in Sasuke's ear.

"Let's go together."

"I know where Uchiha Itachi is."

Sasuke's eyes gleamed, and he stopped struggling immediately. He nodded obediently, signaling that everything was easy to talk about, and he was willing to do anything as long as Naruto could help him find Itachi.

Naruto smiled, but for some reason, a strange sense of guilt crept up on him.

‘Damn it...’

‘Why does it give me a sense of déjà vu in a NTR plot...’

With Sasuke’s compliance, this Akatsuki’s special mission faced no further opposition.

Therefore, under Konan’s arrangement, everyone in the Akatsuki immediately stopped what they were doing and prepared to depart for the Land of Fire the next day...

…

At noon the next day, the Akatsuki had arrived in the Land of Fire.

Sasuke walked beside Naruto and stepped forward to ask in a low voice, "Tell me......"

"Where is Itachi?"

Upon hearing this, Naruto didn’t answer, but waved to Sasori, who was with Deidara, and motioned for him to come over.

‘Strange…’

‘Why do I feel like the relationship between these two guys has gotten better recently?’

‘Weren’t they calling each other heretics before?’

Sasori stepped forward and asked respectfully, "Cult Leader, what do you want from me?"

"That phone you guys developed... it has a tracking function, right?"

According to the Cult Mechanicus's approach, it is naturally impossible to create phones and forums for the benefit of the world.

If it wasn’t for rapidly expanding their cult or tracking enemies, Naruto would not believe it even to death.

"As expected of Cult Leader... you saw through it immediately."

Sasori forced an awkward smile and glanced at Deidara uncontrollably.

After all, such classified matters couldn’t be leaked to him.

"Good, you’re dismissed."

"After this mission is over, help me find someone."

"Understood, Cult Leader."

Sasuke was overjoyed and he already began to imagine how to beat Itachi violently in his mind.

‘Itachi!’

‘Your days are numbered!’

But soon, Sasuke thought of another problem...

‘What if Itachi doesn’t even have a phone?!’

"Naruto..."

"If Itachi didn't have a phone, does that mean you can’t track him?"

Naruto had expected that this guy would ask this, so he took out his phone and opened the message Sasuke had sent before, and then pointed at a certain user in the comments.

"This guy, 'Beloved Little Brother,' is Uchiha Itachi."

"WHAT THE F…!!!"

The members of the Akatsuki walking ahead suddenly heard a furious roar from behind, startling them so badly they nearly jumped out in shock.

Everyone stopped in unison and looked at Ichigo and Uchiha Xiao Yan behind them.

"Uh... nothing, nothing..."

"We’re just joking around."

Everyone: “…”

Pain said nothing and motioned for Konan to lead the way again.

"Why the hell are you yelling so loud?"

Naruto grabbed Sasuke by the back of his neck and growled.

‘This guy’s sudden outburst could literally scare someone to death!’

Sasuke stayed silent for a few minutes, then said strangely, "I... I thought that account was Konohamaru..."

The last time he went back to the village to ‘meet up’ his friends, Sasuke didn't go looking for Kiba first, but had brutally beaten up that little brat Konohamaru.

At that time, this kid kept shouting that he was wronged and that he hadn't even bought a phone yet.

But Sasuke hadn’t listened, then just pulled out his Heavy Xuan Ruler and started beating him.

‘Now that I think about it...’

‘Konohamaru really might have been innocent.’

‘But…’

‘What kind of sick bastard names himself ‘Beloved Little Brother’?!’

Naruto curled his lips and silently mourned for Konohamaru for a few seconds.

He felt like that kid’s bad luck was on par with Mitsuki’s.

"Let’s catch up."

"I'll take you to Itachi after the mission is over."

"Okay."

The two ended their conversation and quickly rejoined the group.

As they caught up, Naruto pulled out his phone again and came to Pain’s side, grinned and shouted to the members of the Akatsuki.

"Hey, everyone! Let’s take a group photo!"

"Leader, smile a little."

"Kisame! Get your ass in the frame!!"

Surprisingly, Pain and Konan didn’t reject Ichigo’s request for a photo. In fact, they cooperated quite well.

Nagato even forced Pain’s lips to twitch upward into something resembling a smile. Although his smile was a more like death grimace, at least it could be seen that everyone in the Akatsuki did not reject this behavior.

In the photo, Naruto, who transformed into Ichigo, held the phone in one hand, leaned back, and made what he thought was a serious expression.

Beside him, Konan tucked a strand of hair behind her ear. Pain still looked like he’d rather be anywhere else, but Naruto felt it was not photogenic, so he grabbed his arm and forced him to flash a peace sign.

In the back, Deidra raised his hand, proudly showing off the mouth on his palm with a cocky grin. Sasori and Kisame stood stiff as wooden boards.

As for Uchiha Xiao Yan...

He stood at the end of the group, holding the brim of his hood with one hand, his expression still unreadable.

Naruto examined the photo, nodded with satisfaction, then logged into his Akatsuki’s work account and posted it directly to his feed.
