After everyone finished eating, Lan Luo took Nagato to his study. Lan Luo opened his left eye's Amenominaka and began to analyze the myriad phenomena power of the Rinnegan. He also extracted some Rinnegan Chakra using Sealing Technique and took some Rinnegan tissue, which was the result of Hashirama and Uchiha Madara's cells.
After taking the cells, Lan Luo used the bio-electric Palm Sage Technique to heal Nagato while asking, "Do you want me to cultivate a pair of eyes for you?" He planned to use Nagato for an experiment. He could use the Extremis Virus's life coding ability to give Nagato the eyes, Sharingan, Senju, and Kaguya Clan cells. He believed that Nagato would become even stronger then.
Konan also tugged at Nagato, signaling him to agree. After thinking for a moment, Nagato said, "What do you want us to do? I don't believe you would help me for no reason." Lan Luo's image was indeed like that; he had just helped them in Hidden Rain Village and was already studying the Rinnegan.
"I'll pick some Uchiha beauties, and you help them sow some seeds?" Lan Luo said, feeling a bit embarrassed, but the Uzumaki bloodline was too tempting. Moreover, Nagato's body already contained some of the myriad phenomena power.
Hearing this, both Konan and Nagato twitched their mouths. Nagato said, embarrassed, "Can you change the request? This request is too harsh for me."
"You all saw the castle in the sky, right? That will be the Uchiha Clan's territory in the future. If you agree, you and Konan can live a peaceful life there. Konan can go to our Uchiha Clan's school to be a teacher, and you won't have to worry about the Infinite Tsukuyomi; our Uchiha's Susanoo will be immune to it." Lan Luo tried his best to persuade them to join the Uchiha.
"You want us to become Konoha Ninja?" Nagato asked, slightly displeased.
"I said the Uchiha Clan, not Konoha. Konoha almost annihilated us before. I don't want to risk my life for such a Village again." Lan Luo no longer concealed his animosity towards Konoha at this point. If he didn't like it, he didn't like it. He had stepped down but was still causing trouble.
Seemingly knowing that Lan Luo's offer wasn't enough, Lan Luo spoke again: "If you can help me watch over Konoha, I'll revive Yahiko for you. That way, the three of you can be together again."
Hearing Lan Luo's words, Nagato and Konan no longer hesitated and said, "We agree, but you cannot force us."
Lan Luo saw that the deal was struck and knew how to handle things in the future. He still wanted to see Konoha's attitude, as he estimated that someone particularly wanted the Sage Eye.
Soon after, an Anbu appeared at Lan Luo's door again, notifying Lan Luo to go to the Hokage's office. Lan Luo didn't hesitate and followed the Anbu, arriving at the Hokage's office shortly. Upon entering, he saw Tsunade sitting in the main seat, with the Third Hokage, Jiraiya, Nara Shikaku, Hyuga Hiashi, and the leaders of other Clans all present.
Lan Luo casually spoke, "Are you preparing to interrogate me?" His tone was somewhat sarcastic.
Jiraiya quickly tried to smooth things over, "Lan Luo, we don't mean that. We're just discussing the Sage Eye." Ever since he learned about the conspiracy behind Nagato's Rinnegan, he no longer wanted Nagato to continue living a life controlled by others, especially when Danzo killed Yahiko. He knew then that Nagato and Konan could not be wholeheartedly with Konoha.
Tsunade then spoke, "Since the Uchiha Clan Leader has arrived, today we will discuss the matter of the Sage Eye, as well as the Uchiha Clan's Angkor Fortress."
The Third Hokage put down his pipe and said, "Lan Luo, for the Village's strength, your Uchiha Clan should hand over the sky fortress to Konoha."
"Oh, for Konoha, how impressive. Why did you annihilate so many Clans in the past, enriching your upper-class families? Now it's been found that your Sarutobi Clan has three thousand Ninja troops. How will you bring the annihilated Clans back to life? Or return Naruto's family property? Is this how Konoha treats the families of war heroes? You speak with such righteousness, but you're full of deceit." Lan Luo didn't hold back his curses. He had no good feelings for the current Konoha. He had stepped down but was still causing trouble.
The Clan leaders, hearing this, also felt that the Third Hokage had indeed gone too far, but they were unwilling to let the Uchiha Clan grow too powerful.
At this point, Tsunade, sensing trouble, spoke to ease the tension: "Lan Luo, we know Konoha made many mistakes before, but we are slowly correcting and improving. We also hope Konoha becomes even stronger." Everyone nodded frequently, agreeing with Tsunade.
"So you sent Danzo to kill their companion, and after saving someone, you want to dig out their eyes? You should know this is the Sage Eye, the Sage Eye evolved from Uchiha Madara. Even if it were dug out, it would belong to our Uchiha Clan. How dare you all comment here? Why don't you offer your own Kekkei Genkai for research?" Lan Luo had no temper towards Tsunade. His family had indeed sacrificed themselves for Konoha. He could curse the Third Hokage, but he truly couldn't curse Tsunade.
At this point, Nara Shikaku spoke, "Uchiha Clan Leader, this time we want to ask for more information; we have no intention of coercion." He also knew that continued coercion was not the way. They were also helpless; they had all acquiesced to what the Third Hokage had done before, and now he wanted to do such a thing again. Perhaps Fugaku would agree, but Lan Luo certainly wouldn't compromise.
Lan Luo then spoke, "The Rinnegan can be given to you, but our Uchiha Clan must withdraw from the Ninja ranks. Our Clan has no faith in the current Konoha leadership or the original Hokage line. I believe everyone knows the Uchiha Clan's past experiences. Now, no one has been held accountable, and heroes haven't received proper compensation. Your own families grew rich. Now, I obtained the Angkor Fortress outside, and with just one sentence, you want to seize it. Is this reasonable?"
Everyone had no solution upon hearing this, and the Uchiha Clan withdrawing from the Ninja ranks was unacceptable. Jiraiya then spoke, "Lan Luo, you're going too far. The Third Hokage and others have stepped down; what more do you want?"
Lan Luo clapped his hands and said, "I'm really curious. When Konoha fell into darkness, you, as a Ninja, left the Village and didn't bear the title of a rogue Ninja. What you're protecting now are merely the vested interests. Don't speak so grandly; the Clan leaders aren't fools. And you're not that great either. Minato's child is still living in a small, broken house. When our Third Hokage was still in power, he often ate food mixed with sand and expired milk, having confiscated Minato's inheritance. You speak so righteously; tell me, how should this be handled? Surely, nothing has been handled, right? No way, no way."
Tsunade couldn't help but get a headache seeing Lan Luo's current demeanor. She had compromised with the Third Hokage, but there was nothing she could do. Many important positions were now held by members of these four Clans. If they were to be dealt with, Konoha would fall into internal strife for a period. If not dealt with, it would remain as it was now.
At this point, Hyuga Hiashi spoke, "The Uchiha Clan cannot withdraw from the Ninja ranks. Propose another request, and we will try our best to fulfill what we can."
