Starting as the mastermind behind Naruto

Chapter 301 Let them wait for me, their savior!

On the battlefield.

No one expected this.

When Nagato was in the most danger, the person who saved him was Naruto Uzumaki, who should have been the one who hated Nagato the most.

Even Tsunade found it somewhat unbelievable.

"Why did you save me?"

Nagato's hands trembled slightly as his gaze slowly settled on Naruto Uzumaki, the man who had saved him: "Naruto Uzumaki, I killed Kakashi Hatake and Jiraiya-sensei. You must hate me to the core!"

No matter what, it shouldn't be Naruto Uzumaki who saved him!

Because Nagato knew information about Naruto, Kakashi Hatake was Naruto's Jonin Captain, and Jiraiya was like a mentor and father to Naruto...

Both of them died at his hands…

No matter how you look at it, Naruto Uzumaki had no reason to save him.

Even if they are facing the same people now, can Naruto Uzumaki overcome the hatred in his heart?

"Didn't you say that hatred is the most useless thing?"

Naruto shook his head indifferently, then a complex expression gradually appeared on his face. He slowly opened his palm and said, "Although you've killed many people, I actually want to kill you more than anyone else. I really want to kill you..."

As Naruto said this, he even subconsciously gritted his teeth, but the next moment he sighed and said, "However, the Perverted Sage hopes that you can live."

"Jiraiya-sensei?"

Nagato's expression froze slightly.

Naruto Uzumaki nodded and continued in a deep voice, "The perverted sage told me that he originally wanted to kill you too, to kill you who tried to destroy the world."

As he spoke, Naruto Uzumaki turned his head and whispered, "But later, the Perverted Sage found out the truth. You were just a pitiful guy who was led astray by others."

"So you're just pitying me?"

Nagato's gaze froze slightly as he stared intently at the person before him.

When Jiraiya and Naruto learned the truth, they were actually secretly mocking him! Mocking him for calling himself a god when he was just someone else's pawn!

Unexpectedly, Naruto shook his head and said softly, "I never thought you were pitiful, and neither did the Perverted Sage. He just believed that he should correct his disciple's mistakes, which is something a teacher should do, even if it means dying..."

At this point, Naruto Uzumaki suddenly raised his head and said, "My first teacher, Iruka Umino, failed the genin exam and was lured by a rogue ninja into stealing the village's most important sealing book."

Later, when Iruka Umino learned of this, he not only didn't harm his disciple who had committed such a grave offense, but he also desperately tried to protect me... We were both so lucky to have the same teacher.

At this point, Naruto clenched his fist, his expression gradually turning grim: "The only thing I didn't expect was that the Perverted Sage would actually die at your hands... but he certainly wouldn't blame you even in death."

"..."

Nagato fell silent.

After a long silence, Nagato slowly nodded, glanced at everyone present, and said in a low voice, "I see... I understand."

"That's good."

Naruto Uzumaki nodded and said in a deep voice, "Now you know the truth, right? We are facing a common enemy. Since you have survived, don't die easily. Live on with the will of the Pervert Sage!"

"..."

Nagato remained silent.

The next moment, Nagato glanced at Minato Namikaze and Tobirama Senju, who were gathering towards them, and extended his palm.

"Even if I am no longer a god, I will still eliminate all enemies before me and correct the mistakes of this world!"

A powerful repulsive force suddenly erupted from his hand!

An even fiercer battle erupted, with Nagato unleashing the power of his Rinnegan as if he didn't care about his life!

Minato Namikaze and Tobirama Senju instantly used the Flying Thunder God Technique to escape the range of the repulsive force's attack. Dodging the attack of Shinra Tensei was far too easy for the two of them!

However, with Nagato's outburst, the battle finally reached its climax!

far away.

Uehara Naraku was still remotely manipulating everything. It was he who controlled Senju Tobirama and Namikaze Minato, deliberately creating an opportunity for Uzumaki Naruto to save people.

"You really didn't disappoint... Naruto Uzumaki."

Uehara Naraku rubbed his temples and whispered, "Back then, I had Obito Uchiha reveal the truth to Jiraiya, deliberately trying to arouse Jiraiya's sympathy and get him to guide Nagato-sama again. I never expected that Jiraiya would be killed..."

Oh well, it doesn't matter now. Everything is going according to plan. It seems that even though Jiraiya is dead, his will still flows through you!

Naruto Uzumaki, you certainly didn't disappoint!

All of this was orchestrated by Uehara Naraku behind the scenes.

As a mastermind, one cannot always use overwhelming power and intelligence to induce and coerce others; true excellence lies in manipulating everything with deep emotions.

Uehara Naraku originally saved Jiraiya only to use Jiraiya to clear Nagato's name, but when the time came, it was Uzumaki Naruto who ultimately took on this responsibility.

"Let the battle intensify!"

Uehara Naraku's will instantly descended upon Uchiha Obito, Namikaze Minato, and Senju Tobirama. His will was incredibly powerful in their mental worlds, making it impossible for them to muster even the slightest resistance!

Uehara Naraku tilted his head, propping it up with his hand, and said coldly, "Only when you drive them to the point where they can no longer resist will they welcome their savior!"

Minato Namikaze: "..."

Tobirama Senju: "..."

Obito Uchiha: "..."

The three people controlled by Uehara Naraku were at a loss for words.

Now, the Konoha ninjas, Nagato, and Konan are at a complete disadvantage against these reanimated beings. Will any reinforcements from the entire ninja world come to their rescue?

"No need to think about it anymore, I am their savior."

Uehara Naraku curled the corners of his lips into a friendly smile: "So this time I will give you a suitable opportunity to use your full strength to fight against me!"

Uehara Naraku smiled and continued, "All the anger I've been controlling you for so long can be released. If anyone can defeat me, perhaps I'll give him a chance to undo his Impure World Reincarnation."

His smile sent chills down the spines of the three men.

Minato Namikaze, Tobirama Senju, and Obito Uchiha were all filled with astonishment. They hadn't expected Naraku Uehara to be so audacious!

Based on their understanding of each other, all three of them are skilled in space-time techniques. In addition, with the invincible nature of the Impure World Reincarnation, if they were to go all out, they would be able to fight even Hashirama Senju, and their chances of winning would not be too low!

Is this guy's confidence getting too high?

However, Uehara Naraku curled the corners of his lips into a smile and continued, "One of you should go and inform Yakushi Kabuto so he can also use Sage Mode at full power. Let me test his fighting ability!"

"..."

When Kabuto received this news, he was quite taken aback.

As the subordinate who knew Uehara Naraku best, Kabuto Yakushi did not think of Uehara Naraku as a crazy and arrogant guy like the others.

Therefore, when Kabuto Yakushi returned the message, his voice even sounded somewhat fearful as he asked, "Master, is there anything I did that you're not satisfied with?"

"No, I am very satisfied."

Uehara Naraku shook his head and said with a smile, "Don't you find it interesting? These people are trying to hurt their old friends and comrades, while I, the one pulling the strings behind the scenes, am trying to save them..."

Uehara Naraku rested her chin on her hand and tapped her cheek with her fingers: "I'm really curious, what will they think if they find out about these things in the future?"

Kabuto Yakushi: "..."

Kabuto Yakushi figured they must not be in a good mood. Thinking about it, this world is really incredibly ironic!

Back then, Uehara Naraku always referred to Hanzo as "Lord Hanzo," but who would have thought that this guy was the murderer who personally killed Hanzo the Salamander...

Back then, Uehara Naraku talked about wiping out the Akatsuki organization and capturing and killing its members, but who would have thought that this guy would become the next leader of the Akatsuki organization...

It seems like another cycle has begun!

No one could possibly have imagined that, right?

A guy who was about to start anew under Nagato's guidance and work hard to save people was actually the mastermind behind it all?

"Besides these..."

Uehara Naraku spoke again softly, continuing to explain, "I still need Black Zetsu to continue trusting me. A bloody battle with you, the traitor who betrayed Akatsuki and the Eye of the Moon, will ensure Black Zetsu continues to trust me, and can only trust me!"

"..."

Kabuto Yakushi simply didn't know how to respond.

In this way, it seems that Lord Naraku is scheming against Konoha, Nagato, Black Zetsu, and Orochimaru all at the same time.

How is this boss's brain structured?!

Then we can only hope that Lord Naraku will go easy on us later!

Kabuto Yakushi absolutely did not believe he was qualified to challenge Naraku Uehara, because he knew very well who had given him everything he had, and he had personally witnessed Naraku Uehara easily defeat the Third Raikage, the Second Hokage, and others.

These people are definitely not weak.

However, none of them seemed to be qualified to fight Uehara Naraku. Apart from the legendary Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama, no one could possibly be a match for Uehara Naraku.

"never mind…"

Kabuto slowly adjusted his glasses, controlling the Second Tsuchikage Mu and Might Guy to continue their attack, a smile playing on his lips: "I've been wanting to see just how powerful Lord Naraku really is!"
