Chapter 140 Scorpion's Dream
After being pierced by the kunai, Scorpion's eyes widened and memories of the past began to emerge in his mind.

As the grandson of the elder Chiyo of Sunagakure, he received a good ninja education since he was a child, and his parents were both famous jonin in the village.

If nothing unexpected had happened, he would have lived a happy life.

However, in the first year of his schooling, he received the tragic news that his parents had died in battle on the front line, and from then on he had the idea of ​​revenge.

But when he really had the power to take revenge, his enemy Hatake Sakumo died in a ridiculous way.

A Jonin who served as the head of the Anbu in Konoha actually chose to commit suicide because of the failure of his mission. Unable to seek revenge, he could only raise a kunai of revenge against the Third Kazekage.

After all, if the Third Kazekage had not participated in the Second Ninja World War, his parents would not have gone to the battlefield and would not have died on the battlefield.

After defeating the Third Kazekage, he became a rebel ninja of the Sand Village.

Although he is not wanted, he is not much different from other renegade ninjas. Although the life of a renegade ninja is free, he may encounter danger at any time and cannot enjoy the protection of the village.

However, Scorpio does not regret it. Since he has made the choice, he must bear the cost of the choice.

Thinking of this, Scorpion closed his eyes. He was ready to use the remaining chakra to make a final counterattack. Even if he died, he would never let the enemy get a complete body.

After a few seconds, the death that Scorpion imagined did not come.

Scorpion was surprised to find that Bai Ye did not kill him, but was using the Palm Immortal Technique to heal his wounds. This made him very confused. Could it be that Bai Ye did not come for his bounty?

Bai Ye saw what Xie was thinking and said helplessly:
"You don't think I'm here to kill you, do you? Even Senior Jiaodu doesn't care about your bounty. Do you think I would kill someone for this bounty?"

The corner man on the side rolled his eyes. How could he not be interested in Scorpion's bounty?
The bounty for the scorpion was actually not that low, but the risk and reward were not proportional. He was too lazy to spend a lot of time and risk being seriously injured to look for the scorpion.

After all, there are so many commissions in the black market, so he is very busy.

After hearing Bai Ye's words, Scorpion fell silent. He just heard that Bai Ye wanted to recruit him, but who would want to recruit wandering ninjas for no reason, especially in such a direct way.

During the conversation, Bai Ye completed the treatment of Scorpion.

Under the effect of the Palm Immortal Technique, the wounds on the scorpion's body have coagulated and stopped bleeding. Although there are still some internal injuries in the body, they are no longer fatal.

After a moment of silence, Xie looked at the scroll in Bai Ye's hand and said calmly, "I agree to your recruitment, but I have a request. Return my things to me first."

Bai Ye glanced at Scorpion, as if saying: Scorpion, do you think I am as stupid as you?
Thinking of this, Bai Ye chuckled and said:

"I can't return your Sealing Scroll to you for now. Who knows if there are any powerful puppets in it? When you join us sincerely, I will naturally return the Wind Shadow Puppet to you."

Hearing the words 'Wind Shadow Puppet', Scorpion's expression changed.

Bai Ye indeed knew about the existence of the Wind Shadow Puppet. His plan to escape through the Wind Shadow Puppet had failed before it even began.

However, how did Bai Ye know this information?
His actions of assassinating the Third Kazekage and creating the human puppet were all carried out in secret and he never told anyone.

At this time, Bai Ye seemed to have guessed what Xie was thinking and said, "Xie, are you wondering how I got this information? I know that you assassinated the Third Kazekage and made him into a human puppet?"

"It's not difficult to know this. A simple analysis is enough." "The Third Kazekage is the 'strongest Kazekage'. Even if this title may be exaggerated, the Third Kazekage is definitely a genuine strong man. Such a strong man can only die from the assassination of a close friend, except for being surrounded and suppressed by a large number of jonin."

"Among the many suspects, you are the only one who has the motive and ability to assassinate the Third Kazekage."

"As for why I know you have the Wind Shadow Puppet, as an excellent puppeteer, you would never let go of such excellent material and would definitely make it into a puppet."

After hearing these words, Scorpion nodded slightly, and then realized something was wrong.

Based on Bai Ye's analysis method, it can indeed be analyzed that he is the ninja who assassinated the Third Kazekage, but how does Bai Ye have the above information and how does he know that he has the ability to create human puppets?

And aren't your strength and intelligence network a little too strong...

Thinking of this, Xie became very interested in Bai Ye's identity. He stared into Bai Ye's eyes and asked, "Since you know this information, it seems that you are really interested in me."

"But I'm curious, why did you invite me to join your organization?"

"I'm attracted by your potential...and your identity."

After a pause, Bai Ye continued, "Although you, who killed the Third Kazekage with a sneak attack, have not yet reached the level of a Kage, you still have a lot of room for improvement. I am very optimistic about you."

"Once you have the strength of a Kage, you can help us implement the Tailed Beast Plan."

"The Tailed Beast Project, what is that?"

Although Scorpion dislikes Bai Ye, Bai Ye's strength is undoubtedly much stronger than his. Such a strong man actually needs the assistance of others to implement his plan, which makes him curious about the content of the plan.

Bai Ye glanced at Scorpion and explained:

"The Tailed Beast Project is a plan to collect the tailed beasts. Our Akatsuki organization plans to collect the nine tailed beasts to create an unprecedented weapon, and then use it to conquer the entire ninja world."

Rule the world...Scorpion thought he had heard it wrong.

But judging from Bai Ye's expression, Bai Ye is probably serious. He is seriously recruiting people and preparing a plan to rule the world.

But the problem is that this plan is too unreliable, how can he agree to it?

Thinking of this, Scorpion frowned and said, "So, you invited me to join the Akatsuki organization just to rule the world?"

"If that's the case, I have no interest in your plan and can't help you."

After saying that, Scorpion walked towards the depths of the forest, seemingly not intending to take back the Third Generation Wind Shadow Puppet.

Bai Ye was not worried at all that Xie would leave, and said calmly: "My plan is crazy, but what if I can help you become stronger and realize your dream?"

Hearing this, Scorpion, who had just taken a few steps, stopped.

He slowly turned around and looked at Bai Ye, and said word by word: "You know my dream? I don't even know what my dream is. How do you know?"
