"Hasn't Xiaonan come back yet?"
[Nagato unleashes his senses.]
[Still unable to sense Konan's chakra.]
However, Nagato quickly shook his head.
It's better that he's not here.
Nagato took a deep breath.
[Through Yahiko's gaze.]
He saw the figure walking towards him from the rain.
[Uchiha Madara, wearing a single orange swirling mask.]
Despite claiming to be God.
However, Nagato was still wary of Obito Uchiha.
This person, whose identity and abilities are extremely mysterious, is someone Nagato has always been wary of, even though he is a 'collaborator'.
[It's not just Nagato, Konan is the same.]
She was just cold and aloof, used to keeping people at arm's length.
It's not that easy to expose a flaw.
So... Obito Uchiha doesn't know yet.
[His abilities have been thoroughly understood by Konan through her constant observation and deduction in secret.]
Then.
Konan prepared a elaborate trap for Obito Uchiha.
[And it was precisely that luxurious trap.]
[It has captured the heart of the great fox.]
[Once the fox was tempted, it immediately took action.]
[Launching a strong and swift offensive against Konan.]
In the end, this seemingly icy older sister was successfully won over by the "blonde-haired" guy.
[And that luxurious trap, of course, became useless.]
Since that kind of trap is no longer needed, then... it becomes part of the dowry.
[Six hundred billion detonating tags!!!]
The entire ninja world: "??????"
etc!
Kurotsuchi: "No...am I hallucinating?"
Linen-clad: "No, you didn't, it's true..."
Honglian: "No wonder the big fox was frightened."
Yugito Nii: "Gentlemen... six hundred billion... falling into such a trap... even a god couldn't help, right?"
Pure Land World.
The Sage of Six Paths coughed twice.
Yes, it's useful.
hiss--
I heard the phrase "six hundred billion" again.
Everyone gasped in shock.
Even Kushina and Mito Uzumaki from the Pure Land were incredibly surprised.
In fact.
Both of them are wealthy women.
But the six hundred billion detonating tags...
How much will this cost?
For a regular ninja, even using an explosive tag during a mission can result in a loss.
There are only a few sheets in the ninja tool bag.
This 600 billion... I bet the purchases weren't based on quantity, but rather on... cars, houses...
Today we'll bring in a truckload of detonators, tomorrow we'll bring in a room full of detonators.
It also needs to be transported to the underwater area of Amegakure Village.
This project is... way too big!
Whether Pain and Nagato are gods or not is unknown.
But Xiao Nan is definitely an angel!
Kakuzu: "Mine!!!"
Kakuzu: "They're all mine!!!"
Hidan: "How can we possibly buy that with the little money we earn?"
Hidan: "I think Konan created it day and night using paper magic."
Kakuzu: "I don't care, I definitely have a stake too! A big one at that!"
...
"Nagato."
[Obito Uchiha slowly approached Yahiko Pain.]
[Tendo Yahiko stared at him expressionlessly.]
At this moment.
Nagato remained silent.
This guy knows everything about the ninja world, and all the secrets of the Akatsuki organization.
And their understanding of it.
[This is a space-time ninjutsu that only applies when it appears intangible.]
[Other than that, I know nothing.]
["haven't seen you for a long time."]
[Seeing that Tendo Yahiko remained silent.]
[Obito Uchiha speaks again.]
"Is it because of the events in Konoha?"
[Tendo Yahiko's voice was devoid of any emotion.]
The Rinnegan stares at the eye beneath Obito Uchiha's mask.
"Yes and no." Obito Uchiha nodded, then shook his head.
"The plan is being moved up," Obito Uchiha added.
[Then, he glanced at the location where Nagato's main body was.]
[Seeing this.]
[Tendo Yahiko's aura has changed.]
The four Pains behind him also stepped forward.
"Is the plan ahead of schedule?"
Is this a threat to God?
[Tendo Yahiko slowly raised his hand.]
"No." Obito Uchiha shook his head.
[Facing Tendo Yahiko, who seemed about to make a move.]
Obito Uchiha showed absolutely no reaction.
It seems they didn't take it seriously.
Where's Xiaonan?
Nagato did not reply.
[Tendo Yahiko remained silent.]
Obito Uchiha frowned slightly.
However, it quickly chuckled to itself.
[Because of the changes in Konoha, it became somewhat anxious.]
"It doesn't matter anymore."
"The plan has been moved up."
"After the Five Daimyo Conference."
"The Meeting of the Three Kage of Kirigakure, Iwagakure, and Kumogakure."
"I went there."
As he spoke, Obito Uchiha slightly raised his eyes, gazing into the distance.
[This is the direction of Konoha.]
"The Fourth Shinobi World War."
"To participate."
"The nine-tailed and one-tailed creatures were captured and controlled in advance."
"Join forces with the three legendary ninja villages to conquer Konoha."
"Akatsuki needs to step in."
"I will take action as well."
["in addition."]
"Have Itachi Uchiha and Kisame Hoshigaki returned?"
"Have you been able to contact them from within the illusionary barrier?"
[Tendo Yahiko did not reply.]
[Nagato's brow was furrowed.]
The Fourth Shinobi World War...?
[I hope Xiao Nan is alright?]
[Joining forces with Kumogakure, Iwagakure, and Kirigakure...]
Nagato remained silent for a moment.
Take a deep breath.
[Then he took control of Tendo Yahiko.]
["reason."]
"No reason." Obito Uchiha's voice turned noticeably colder.
"No reason is needed."
"I understand." After a long silence, Nagato finally nodded.
"A perfect Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, very strong."
"Even the perfect Nine-Tails Jinchuriki will be defeated before a god," Nagato said expressionlessly, controlling Tendo Yahiko.
["very good."]
"So, the second question."
"No, we can't contact Kisame Hoshigaki or Itachi Uchiha," said Yahiko Tendo.
Obito Uchiha remained silent for a moment.
"Leave the capture of the Nine-Tails to Akatsuki. Act according to the situation. The Sannin Villages can be used."
"Get ready, we'll have a slideshow meeting later."
"Akatsuki, all members mobilize!"
After saying this, Obito Uchiha glanced at Yahiko Tendo's Rinnegan.
Regardless of whether the mission succeeds or fails.
[The Akatsuki organization has been mobilized.]
[We will surely be able to ascertain the true state of Konoha at this moment.]
Whether the mission fails or succeeds.
Afterwards, it will always reclaim the Rinnegan.
Without the Rinnegan, it didn't have much confidence anymore.
[Unless the abnormality of White Zetsu is absolutely impossible to recur.]
"Aren't you going to take action yourself?" Tendo Yahiko asked.
"If Pain fails, I will personally capture the Nine-Tails."
"Until then, do what you're supposed to do."
[After explaining the task.]
Obito Uchiha didn't want to stay a moment longer.
It now needs to check on the situation of Kisame Hoshigaki and Itachi Uchiha.
[Kisame Hoshigaki would rather die than reveal any information; that much is certain.]
But Itachi Uchiha was different.
If Itachi's injuries were too severe during this trip to Konoha...
Obito Uchiha narrowed his eyes slightly, a murderous intent already forming in his heart.
