Chapter 226 Nagato Uzumaki? The Rinnegan's Conspiracy

For beginners, having a sample is a prerequisite for making an explosive tag.

[Here, we must mention Kakuzu.]

Kakuzu was responsible for the Akatsuki's finances, including earning money, paying salaries and bonuses. Meanwhile, Amegakure, the Akatsuki's base, was training ninjas. The fact that Kakuzu handled both the organization's expenses and the maintenance of Amegakure's ninja system suggests that a considerable amount of money passed through his hands.

[In that case, Amegakure should also have an assembly line for producing explosive tags.]

[Therefore, it makes perfect sense for Konan to use the salary Kakuzu gave her to buy expensive explosive tags for research.]

[Or, it would make perfect sense if Konan spent a few days working as a factory worker at the Rain Village explosive tag manufacturing center and learned the production process. (laughs)]

As members of the Rain Village, every penny and cent they possess is closely tied to their livelihood; they are the ultimate wage earners.

Tobima's office.

As Hiruzen Sarutobi watched the bizarre money-counting scene on the screen, his expression gradually became strange.

"Hiruzen, what's wrong?"

Noticing Hiruzen Sarutobi's expression, Kagami Uchiha asked a question.

"It's nothing, it's just that I feel like Kakuzu-san is destined to be a workaholic no matter which time or space he's in."

you do not say.

In the Akatsuki organization on the Third Hokage's side, to put it nicely, he was the financial manager.

To put it bluntly, he's just a wage earner.

In this timeline of Konoha, Kakuzu also stayed outside the village, working as a bounty hunter, returning to the village only once a month.

He would make a brief appearance in the morning to explain and hand over some matters to Tobirama Senju, and then hurriedly leave the village in the afternoon to continue his money-making spree.

They were so busy that they didn't even know the village had resurrected the First Hokage.

"I wonder if Kakuzu will recall the fear he felt when he was dominated by Wood Release when he tried to assassinate the First Hokage when he saw him."

Having discussed the raw materials and manufacturing process of these six hundred billion explosive tags, let's now look at the explosive effects of these tags.

These detonating tags, when they explode, don't just produce simple white smoke; they explode with flames.

[Note: When injecting chakra, a small amount of Fire Release chakra must be included.]

However, Konan's attributes don't include fire at all.

This brings us to Nagato.

Nagato, the wielder of the Rinnegan, was a member of the Uzumaki clan, specifically a horse-and-girl hybrid.

"Wait, Nagato is from the Uzumaki clan?"

In two different time periods, Mito and Kushina both asked the same question.

Compared to Mito's confusion, Kushina was somewhat excited.

As is well known, in the timeline of the Third Hokage, the Uzumaki clan had already been wiped out, and the number of Uzumaki clan members scattered throughout the entire ninja world was probably less than ten.

Excluding Kushina, besides Naruto, who is of mixed race, there is only Karin Uzumaki on Konoha's side.

Now that she knows Nagato might be a member of the Uzumaki clan, Kushina immediately has other ideas.

"Nagato didn't tell me he was a member of the Uzumaki clan."

Jiraiya was somewhat dumbfounded.

He spent three years with the three young boys from the Nagato family.

It's quite unusual that he didn't realize Nagato was a member of the Uzumaki clan for so long.

"No, red hair alone isn't enough to prove Nagato is a member of the Uzumaki clan, is it? And if Nagato is a member of the Uzumaki clan, why does he have the Rinnegan?"

It must be said that Jiraiya raised an excellent question.

Hair cannot be used as evidence of being a member of the Uzumaki clan, since there are quite a few people with red hair in the ninja world.

Furthermore, the appearance of the Rinnegan made him subconsciously deny that Nagato was a member of the Uzumaki clan.

Since the ninja profession was established, the Uzumaki clan has never possessed a bloodline limit, let alone the Rinnegan, the foremost of the three great dojutsu.

"Wait, the screen says Nagato is the wielder of the Rinnegan, not the owner?"

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at the light screen with horror in their eyes.

Holding something means that it may not be yours, but it is in your possession.

To possess means that this thing is yours and in your possession.

The two terms have similar meanings, but they are not the same.

Jiraiya: "If Nagato were truly a member of the Uzumaki clan, he couldn't possibly possess the Rinnegan, but now the Rinnegan is on Nagato. Can you guess who owns these eyes?"

Orochimaru: "Does this even need guessing?"

Everyone: "Yeah, there's really no need to guess."

This work was compiled and uploaded by [author's name].

Naruto: ? ? ?

Everyone present, except for one person, was not stupid. They only needed to combine the information they had to easily guess who the owner of these two Rinnegan was.

"Sigh~ If that's really the case, doesn't that mean everything Nagato experienced was arranged by someone else?"

"This is just too tragic."

"Jiraiya, are you going to tell Nagato this?"

Jiraiya thought about it for a moment, then shook his head and said, "There's no rush now. Let's wait until we've seen Nagato's summary."

As the wielder of the Rinnegan and a member of the Uzumaki clan, Nagato's mastery of Fire Release techniques is naturally exceptional, and his chakra reserves are enormous. Giving Chiaotzu—no, I mean, his sister-in-law—a little Fire Release chakra to her wouldn't be unreasonable, would it?

[This also explains why Nagato, despite possessing the Preta Path, remains as thin as a monkey all the time.]

[Most of them were exploited by Xiao Nan.]

[Let's broaden our thinking a bit: after Kakuzu's death, Konan became the female head of the household.]

[She did indeed say she was preparing to guard against Obito, so what reason would she have not to use the organization's inheritance to buy some expensive explosive tags and mix them into this 600 billion?]

[Perhaps a significant portion of it was mixed in with high-end explosive tags worth tens of thousands of taels, bought with money from Kakuzu's private treasury.]

Finally, we won't even consider how much Kakuzu needs to earn to cover Konan's cost of the explosive tags.

[Considering that a bowl of Ichiraku Ramen in Konoha costs less than 100 ryo, Konan will sell it for the cheapest price of 300 ryo, based on calculations made by online users.]

[At this point, we can bring out Asmasang, the unit of measurement used in the bounty hunting world, valued at 3500 million taels.]

[Based on the number of Asuma's heads, Kakuzu would have to kill at least half a million Asuma's to earn enough money to buy explosive tags for Konan.]

[The corpses of Asura who were killed, if laid end to end, could circle the entire ninja world. (laughs)]

"Wait, Light Curtain, are you being rude? What do you mean I'm the unit of measurement in the bounty world?"

Asuma was initially a little excited to hear his name mentioned again on the screen.

Upon realizing that he was being presented as a unit of measurement, he began to complain unhappily.

"Asma."

Kakashi patted Asuma on the shoulder, comforting him, "Don't be upset. Others want to be a unit of measurement, but they can't. Hahaha!"

"Kakashi, as a unit of measurement for chakra, what right do you have to laugh at me!"

"Well"

Even if Asuma hadn't mentioned it, Kakashi would have forgotten that he was still a unit of measurement for chakra.

"I'll just give you my bounty unit, then you'll have two units of calculation, making you unique in the ninja world."

Upon hearing this, Kakashi immediately switched places with his father, Sakumo, then covered his ears with his hands and said to Asuma, "What? Asuma, what are you saying? I can't hear you!"

Asma: 6
