In the outer area.

Looking at this ninja village, which was always shrouded in torrential rain.

Even Madara Uchiha's usually arrogant face showed a rare hint of interest.

"Hmph? He's imbued all his chakra into this special rain. Hmph, it seems that Nagato has indeed grown a lot over the years. Reaching this level is quite impressive."

Madara Uchiha said with a hint of appreciation.

After all, Nagato was a pawn he chose, which shows that Madara Uchiha initially recognized Nagato's talent to some extent. The Rinnegan is not something that just anyone can handle. Even though Nagato turned into a wretched, inhuman state, if it were someone else, they would probably be drained dry and wouldn't be able to unleash even a fraction of the Rinnegan's power.

"Let's go. It's time to return what we lent to Nagato."

Madara Uchiha smiled slightly.

Without a care, they stepped into the artificial rain curtain.

Obito and Black Zetsu, who were in the back, followed suit.

They had already sensed Madara's powerful aura before.

There's really nothing to worry about when dealing with Nagato.

Almost the instant the three stepped into Amegakure, atop the tall tower in the center of the village.

Pain suddenly opened his eyes.

Long Gate, also hidden inside the tower, looked surprised and doubtful.

"What's wrong? Nagato?"

Konan, who was reporting on the current progress of the organization's work and, most importantly, the impending clash between the major ninja villages, paused subconsciously when she saw the change in Nagato's expression, and then asked a question.

"Someone's here. Besides that guy and Zetsu, there's another person with an immense chakra aura!"

Nagato frowned and said.

Because of the Rinnegan.

Nagato could clearly determine the chakra of the tailed beasts. He was 100% certain that the third person who appeared was definitely not a Jinchuriki, but it was extremely rare for a human to possess such a large amount of chakra.

Having a large amount of chakra doesn't necessarily mean being very strong, but it certainly doesn't mean being weak. Most importantly, Nagato could clearly sense the chilling aura of this chakra. At that moment, even Nagato felt a sense of unease.

This is a feeling I've never had before.

This made Nagato's heartstrings tighten involuntarily.

"The other person has a huge chakra aura? Could it be that guy is about to turn hostile?"

Xiao Nan's eyes narrowed, and she spoke in a very serious tone.

"Let's make all the preparations first."

After a moment or two of silence, Nagato spoke with a very serious expression.

"I'll go out and take a look too."

Xiao Nan nodded and was about to leave.

"No, Xiao Nan, let me use the Heavenly Dao to probe the situation first."

Driven by a premonition of danger from his own intuition.

Nagato shook his head, stopping Konan from doing so.

If the other side really turns hostile, it would be unwise for Xiao Nan to go out; it would be better to send the six puppets she controls directly.

"Hmm? Okay."

Xiao Nan was also taken aback, but still nodded obediently.

An unexpected turn of events.

It's a unique clash that's completely different from the original story.

"whoosh"

"whoosh"

"whoosh"

"whoosh"

"whoosh"

"whoosh"

Unlike Jiraiya's invasion in the original work, this person genuinely had absolutely no information about Nagato's side.

Now, it's one of our own people from the organization who's arrived.

They are still the original 'collaborators'.

The so-called concealing one's abilities and holding back is meaningless; if things really come to a head, then one must go all out.

Nagato saw it very clearly.

Therefore, all six Paths of Pain were under Nagato's control, and they attacked together against Madara Uchiha and his group who were marching in head-on.

In the blink of an eye.

They met in a narrow passage.

And it was at that moment when their eyes met.

"!?"

Nagato's pupils suddenly contracted inside the tower.

God of Ninjas, Asura of the Ninja World.

In the thousand-year history of ninjas, there have only been two individuals who were truly known to the general public as being able to dominate the entire ninja world single-handedly. More importantly, only fifty years have passed since their time.

A generation is not enough time for their fame to completely fade away.

The statues in the Valley of the End serve as a constant reminder to the world of the extraordinary existence of these two individuals.

Therefore, in the ninja world, there is no one who does not know Uchiha Madara and Senju Hashirama.

Madara Uchiha under the Impure World Reincarnation.

A special entity that can be easily identified.

"Uchiha Madara!!!"

The moment Pain, representing Nagato, uttered that name, all six paths of Pain subconsciously glanced at Obito, who was still wearing that spiral mask, sitting to the side.

Although it's still not entirely clear what the inside story is.

But the only thing Nagato was certain of was that they had indeed been deceived by that guy.

Madara Uchiha!?

"What a ridiculous and low-level lie."

Pain looked at Madara Uchiha, Obito, and Black Zetsu opposite him with an extremely indifferent expression.

When Obito heard Nagato's words, the corner of his eye twitched slightly.

But at this point, he was no longer the one in charge of the plan.

Obito simply chose to remain silent.

"Hehe, Nagato, it's been so many years, and you have indeed made great progress. Although it's a little different from what I expected, don't worry, this world will surely usher in peace, as long as you return what originally belonged to me."

Madara Uchiha looked at Pain with a calm expression, as if he could see Nagato far inside the tower through this puppet, and said in a slightly low voice.

"Your stuff? What stuff!?"

Pain frowned, as if sensing something, and looked at Madara with a dangerous glint in his eyes.

"Hmph, what is that? Don't you really feel anything at all? Things that aren't your own won't feel so natural or convenient to use. How about it? Those eyes are useful, aren't they? But it comes at the cost of your life."

Madara Uchiha looked down at Pain with a condescending gaze, his words seemingly playful yet clearly tinged with mockery.

The moment Nagato heard it through Pain's Deva Path, his expression changed drastically, and his eyes turned incredibly cold.

Those eyes!

To say that Nagato had no awareness or consciousness at all would be a lie. Nagato knew best how much the Rinnegan burdened his body. There was a time when Nagato had no suspicions, but he simply didn't want to think in that direction. Moreover, it seemed that these eyes were indeed the ones he had awakened in his childhood. Nagato had always been comforting himself, thinking that this was probably the price he had to pay for the power of the Eye of God.

After all, according to legend, these are eyes that only the Sage of Six Paths could possess.

Nagato always considered himself a god.

But he was still very clear that he was just a mortal and could never truly compare to the Sage of Six Paths. He had obtained the eyes that the sage possessed by sheer luck, and it was only natural that he had to pay a price.

But now it seems that's not the case.

A special feeling of excitement in my heart.

Whether it was a misperception or not, almost the instant Madara Uchiha finished speaking, Nagato vaguely felt his pupils burning.

Nagato instinctively covered the corner of her eye.

"Uchiha Madara!"

Words murmured softly.

"Nagato? What's wrong? Are they really going to make a move!?"

Xiao Nan looked puzzled and quickly asked.

Nagato, however, shook his head slightly as if it were an unintentional gesture.

"Your stuff? Humph, utterly ridiculous."

Through Pain's vision, the cold gaze stared directly at Madara Uchiha, and the chilling words he uttered were spoken.

"boom!"

The figures of the six Paths of Pain flying out in unison.

This already perfectly reveals Nagato's determination.

"What a foolish thing to do."

Madara Uchiha's expression remained unchanged despite witnessing Pain's actions; this was a predictable outcome.
