My Villainous Life Starting with Naruto

Chapter 131 New Members of the Akatsuki Organization

"Nagato".

Thousands of sheets of white paper fluttered in the air, accompanied by a clear, cold sound, and half of Xiao Nan's body appeared in the air.

"Konan." Nagato Uzumaki sat on the edge of the platform, his long red hair wet with rain, but he didn't care. He didn't use chakra to cover it, but just looked down at Amegakure with his purple Rinnegan.

Within the steep, cold steel skyscrapers, true monsters were born.

"What is it?" he asked, his tone softening slightly as he spoke to Konan.

"Our men reported that envoys from the Land of Wind have secretly entered the village. After approaching the outskirts, they made no attempt to conceal their identities and said they wanted to see you."

"Hmph... these great powers are truly obsessed with war," Nagato Uzumaki said calmly.

"Those guys from Sunagakure probably want to team up with us against Konoha and Iwagakure."

"So, you want to discuss an alliance with the Land of Wind, Nagato?"

"None of the Five Great Nations are good people... Tell the people of Sunagakure to wait, I will go see them."

"Okay." Xiao Nan nodded, then turned into a piece of paper and flew away.

Nagato Uzumaki once again became expressionless.

After the deaths of Yahiko and Hanzo of the Salamander, Nagato, as the new leader of Akatsuki, took control of Amegakure. Under the intimidation of the Sage's Eyes, even the die-hard Hanzo loyalists who were unwilling to submit could not cause any major trouble.

The death of his friend and the change in his identity caused Nagato Uzumaki to undergo a huge change in his behavior, becoming more extreme and ruthless.

Last month, he even beat Jiraiya so badly that he was on the verge of death.

Amegakure once again became a completely isolated island. Nagato Uzumaki covered the village with a sensory ninjutsu called "Rain Tiger Free Technique," a special liquid containing chakra mixed with the rain, which would detect any outsider immediately.

Konan assists Nagato and usually communicates with people using white paper. In addition, Amegakure is completely closed off, so Konan's "resurrection" is unknown to anyone.

As time went by, Amegakure under Nagato's rule became as impregnable as a fortress, a force that could not be easily ignored in the chaotic world. Today, even the envoy from the Land of Wind took the initiative to come and meet with the ruler of Amegakure.

However, Nagato Uzumaki has other matters to attend to today, and he is destined to neglect Sunagakure.

The white paper reassembled behind them once more, and Konan appeared, silently waiting alongside Nagato.

Soon, footsteps sounded from inside the wall, the hidden door opened, and a man wearing a prajna mask walked in.

"Lady Moon Goddess." Nagato Uzumaki nodded slightly.

"You want to see me."

"Nagato." Hyuga Yuto chuckled softly, his voice deep and hoarse through the mask:

"You've been really into getting caught in the rain lately."

"Rain can calm my mind and stop me from thinking about the moment Yahiko died."

"You're finally starting to look a bit like an immortal."

"The appearance of an immortal... This world is truly tragic, that it could give birth to a half-baked immortal like me through pain."

"Do you think the world is wrong, Nagato?"

"The world is not wrong." Nagato Uzumaki paused, then continued:

"We, who call ourselves ninjas, have a wrong understanding of the world. Suffering is the main theme, and peace and mutual understanding are just fairy tales."

"My mistake was being too naive. The mistake of the five major powers was using war as a means to regulate relations between nations."

"Only by sharing suffering can we understand each other. This is the only way to achieve peace and is the essence of the world."

After speaking, the red-haired young man hesitated for a moment, his purple Rinnegan fixed on the mysterious man before him, his tone tinged with a mixture of respect and doubt:

"Your Majesty, where do you think we so-called ninjas went wrong?"

"Wrong?" Hinata Yuto's tone was very soft:

"How could I be wrong?"

"What if the world rejects your answer?"

"Then forgive the world, forgive it for denying the right answer. Just like people, the world makes mistakes. And as a responsible adult, let it correct itself."

Nagato and Konan exchanged a glance, marveling at the Moon Goddess's arrogance and domineering nature.

A will that is forever fearless and unwavering—that is the deepest impression the two people had of the moon goddess.

"Alright, Nagato, let's get down to business... Come out."

Hinata Yuto stepped aside, revealing the hidden door behind him.

An unfamiliar young man walked out.

He was about thirteen or fourteen years old, with black hair, wearing a kimono, with a calm expression, his hands hanging down, standing next to the prajna man.

Nagato was slightly taken aback; he hadn't even sensed the boy's presence before he appeared.

"This guy's name is Tachibana Yuugen, you can have him," Hinata Yuuto said softly.

"Go and say hello to your boss."

boom!

As soon as Hyuga Yuto finished speaking, Tachibana Yuugen vanished from his spot and appeared in front of Uzumaki Nagato using the Body Flicker Technique. A dozen thick, interlocking branches extended from his palm, trapping the red-haired young man like a cage.

A repulsive shield appeared, and Tachibana Kigen was thrown back, but he had extremely strong physical abilities and twisted his body in mid-air to dissipate the force, landing safely on the ground.

"Wood Release!" Nagato Uzumaki stared intently at him.

"Um."

"Your Majesty, what do you require of me?"

"Joining you, becoming a member of Akatsuki, if I die in the line of duty... then so be it."

Nagato Uzumaki glanced at him in surprise, nodded, and didn't ask anything more.

Tachibana Yugen walked to Nagato's side, also getting soaked in the rain. He didn't talk much; although he was handsome, he was a quiet and reserved person.

However, Hyuga Yuto knew that Tachibana Yuugen was probably quite pleased with himself; he likely enjoyed this act of pretending to escape by getting caught in the rain for no reason.

—Tachibana Yuugen is none other than Hyuga Yuuto's "Thousand Hands Clone"!

Like Mochizuki Ruri, Hyuga Yuto asked the Slug Sage to give him a large amount of life force, using his own chakra and spiritual power as the core, to give Hashirama's cells a new form, thus becoming his clone.

Having learned from the first experience, this split went very smoothly, and even the gender was controlled, resulting in a male.

Because of Hyuga Yuto's increased power, Tachibana Yuugen has grown into the appearance of a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy, and his power level is also at the Jonin level. In a few more years, Tachibana Yuugen's ninjutsu will be fully mastered, and Hyuga Yuto will be able to reap the rewards of his labor, devour Tachibana Yuugen, and integrate this Senju power into himself to initially complete his bloodline.

Two of the four clones—Senju, Uzumaki, Uchiha, and Kaguya—have already been created. The next step is to create, nurture, and reclaim them step by step to complete the bloodline replenishment plan.

Of course, the four clones must grow to a certain level, and growing means fighting.

If Hyuga Yuto were to bring another bloodline limit back to Konoha, it would be too conspicuous. Therefore, he did not intend to bring Tachibana Yuugen with him, but instead entrusted him to Nagato.

Joining the Akatsuki organization means you'll never lack opportunities to fight.
