28 Chapter 28

"Isn't it that guy's Chakra?" Kisame mutters with a smile, as he sensed the Chakra of the one who died first, "He really should have entered the zombie combo, maybe his life would have ended differently."

The Scorpio was heading to maybe the only village in the Grand Line. After running away from Aokiji they went far of course, but it was for the better since they sensed the Chakra of one of their own. 

'Out of all the Akatsuki members, Sasori was the most alien to me. He is someone who liked art in a different way than Deidara and... genjustu doesn't work on him."

The Uchiha thought. 

Sasori's mind, heart and Chakra are located in his core, which makes vision genjustu impossible to work on him and the fact that Itachi knew little about him made it worse. 

He did work with Sasori (Hiruko), but that was only to recruit a punk named Deidara. They both disliked Orichimaru, but the two never really interacted to the point of more than ten lines. 

'Thinking about it, he is the only Akatsuki member who has nearly the same nature as me.'

Removing Sasori's love for art, the two are basically similar. They don't talk too much, like Kisame and Deidara. They are both lonely individuals and if put in the same team, they might have became close, but that was all in wishing. 

'Kisame's Chakra has increased a lot and he might take down Sasori, but he will have to kill him... I will have to do all the fighting.'

It was reasonable for him to take action. Sasori likes art that last for eternity and if he shows him exactly that, then he might go under him. 

'... Using the Uchiha's Ultimate weapon is the only option, if he decides to fight.'

The Scorpio reached the harbor and it took a few minutes before a boy (34 years old) with messy red hair walked to them. He had put on a coat and pants to hide his puppet side. 

"First Deidara, now you." Kisame smirks, as he jumps off the Scorpio, he also never fought with the Red Sand, but he was hoping to taste the power of someone who should have been in the zombie combo. 

Sasori just smiled and continued to walk towards them, although he was startled that Deidara was here, too.

"I never thought you two would be the first familiar faces I see. You two seem to have turned yourself into Pirates. I can't say, I am surprised since like me, you all killed those of your village."

Itachi felt bothered, he had no option in the matter. It was either the Uchiha or the village. He obviously had to go at the choice that saved a lot of people which was the Leaf Village. 

Kisame on the other side sadistically grinned. Why? He never cared about anyone, because no one cared for him in the Mist. He was just a tool they raised for slaughter friend or foe. 

Seeing no reply, Sasori moved his hand to the back of his waist line, Hoshigaki immediately took hold of samehada. It was almost common knowledge that the red haired before them kept his puppet scrolls on the back, but he pulled a wanted poster instead. 

It was a wanted poster of a man with a 4, 048, 900, 000 berries on his head. The noticeable feature would be the three scars left by Black Beard on his eye and the straight red hair. 

"What is this?" Kisame asks, as he increased the grip on samehada, "Don't tell me you are related, are you?"

"It might be." Sasori answers as he sways his head to the side. The chip in his core contains all the bounties of all wanted people by the government, but the one who caught his eye was, 'Red Haired Shanks' the pirate captain of the 'Red Haired Pirates.'

Basically the thought of them being related was just a bluff to fool Kisame. If it were the case then he would point Gaara as his nephew, because of their hair color. 

He can't put his finger on it. It might be that he thinks Shanks is cool, or that the Emperor would be the best collection he would never have like Pain. 

'Maybe he is someone who knows that Shirorororo guy who made this body.' 

He was thankful to who ever that person was, but a true artist shouldn't lay waist of their products, such people reminded him of the youngest member of the Akatsuki. 

"You said you met Deidara, right?" He asks. 

Itachi replies, "He was with us, but ran away to form his own pirate crew."

"What?! That arrogant fool is a Pirate captain?!" It was a rare sight to see Sasori exclaim. Deidara is no team player, he believes nothing is superior to his art. 

"Yes, he is. You can join his crew if you want." Kisame states with a smile. If Sasori did that then he was going to make him nutrition for his Chakra. 

"I see." Sasori made a cute smile with closed eyes, "I will join you guys, for now."

"I see, do as you see fit." Itachi replies. 

Sasori was different from Orichimaru, not even a single trace of Greed could be detracted from his face, but his thought were a pack of poison to the two before him. 

'Fighting them now would be reckless. I will wait for a perfect chance to stab them in the back. Itachi of the sharigan and Kisame the tailless tailed beast would make a fine collection to my arsenal.'

Even Itachi who always knows what's in his opponents head, didn't catch the desire behind Sasori joining them, but Kisame just smirked. 

'It looks like the number of people after Itachi's head are increasing.'
