Month before the pursuit of Itachi. Kakuzu and Sasori is alive. Tobi has his own plans but unexpected turnover will countercheck them.

Luxury apartment on the tenth, highest level of Sanastoit.

Sanastoit is the City of Thousand Roofs. It is located in a distant Bean Jam Country. Suspended on a rocky ledge in the Suigen valley. The city has ten levels - the higher you live, the richer you are. The city is engulfed by corruption, as well as the Ninja World. No hidden village in Bean Jam Country. It's a long story. Sanastoit is known, however, in the World of Ninja with a precious metal deposits. This metal is used to produce the best ninja weapons such that they are able to be fully infused with chakra.

That ore reaches the high prices in markets outside Sanastoit. Since the prevailing climate here is specific and processing technology is a secret, ninja villages can't import that ore in raw, unprocessed form. That's because the metal is rapidly deteriorating in another microclimate. Only converted doesn't corrode in a different place than Sanastoit.

Lonely man in the luxury apartment paints his nails on dark blue color. Small, brown birds with a raised tail eat away dead insects from the saucer. They argue loudly at the same time.

Dry fingernails. at last. Man reaches for a silver, decorated kiseru, a long, traditional pipe. There is even a gift box with tobacco. This tobacco brand costs hundreds of thousands of Ryou's portion. Serving is one hundred gram. He can afford it. Money gained by controlling resources can be spent in many ways.

Black, silk bathrobe, with the Uchiha clan symbol on the back too much stands out from his body. Had lost weight again? Hasn't he eat enough? Dinner - steak in the read azuki beans paste eaten late at night and some sweets. He doesn't need food or water to survive but with enough sleep, food and water he feels better. This is for wellness of his patched-up body. Time of day or night doesn't matter, especially in Akatsuki. Black-haired peep rests on the ring with a red stone. And long, red-tilted sword. Karotousen. Memento of his father. He is still haunted by the view of body lying in a pool of blood. His father had to die because he knew too much. Because of the system.

Tamps kiseru, then fires a single wisp of tobacco. He loves the aroma and flavor composition. He doesn't want to disturb his small birds, crossed the room silently. On one of the chairs lay carelessly thrown clothes he wore as a member of the Akatsuki. He goes out to the terrace, to the cold night air.

"Sanastoit lights at night look really beautiful," says savoring the smell of tobacco, the night air and city at his feet.

Cities that had been long in his hand. World, unaware of anything created by the entangled network. Created by him, not Madara. Tsuki no Me is his sensei's plan. He twisted Tsuki no Me project for his self-interest. He went berserk and killed an old man Madara many years ago. It's unimportant now. Soon, he will rule over everything.

If all goes well, he will be able to lay his hands on something he wanted so badly.

"Will I grind my azuki beans,

Or get a person to eat?

Shoki, Shoki "

The world turns red. The sound of water, their song. An Azukiarai song. He fast interrupts another wave of memories, in mind reciting the hand seals for all fire jutsus in his arsenal. Then he recites childlish counting rhyme and the world returns to normal.

"Enjoy your freedom while you can. Soon I will be a God, and I will establish a new order on the ruins of the old."

Scarred man eyes flashes, and he laughs maniacally. Oncoming wren interrupts him. Bends his head, staring beady-eyes as and chirping loudly. News. Important news.

The leader of the Akatsuki doesn't rely only on intel from Zetsus. Zetsus are infused with Madara's will. The little birds, wrens, aren't. It's much better to do things that way. He simply doesn't trust his best spy. Uchiha Obito doesn't even trust himself.

"I understand. So the rumors about the key to Minato-sensei seal are propably real."
