Traveling through Nagato, from conquering Konan to dominating the ninja world

“Ugh uh uh uh uh…!!!” Shisui clenched his teeth hard and cold sweat dripped down his face.

At this time, Nagato's faint warning was heard from a distance.

"Don't reveal a single word about what happened here today. Otherwise, the Uchiha clan will be destroyed. I'm serious."

"Hu, ha, hu, ha..." Shisui's pupils were dilated, trying to maintain focus. He stared at the blurry red-haired figure in his sight and asked, "Who are you, and what is your purpose?"

Nagato raised his lips to a meaningful smile: "Hehe, one day in the future, you may know."

He turned around, helped Xiaonan up, and glanced behind him.

"Based on my personal appreciation for you, let me give you a piece of advice. Uchiha Shisui, cover your eyes. A person who plays with crows should not let the crows peck his eyes."

"See you later..."

"Wow!" Nagato waved his sleeves and a storm arose... When the blurry air became visible again, everything disappeared without a trace.

There was only... Platycodon Mountain, a devastated land, recording the tragic battle that had just taken place.

Of course...tragic, that's for Fugaku and Shisui.

Shisui's consciousness gradually faded, and he grabbed Fugaku's epaulettes tightly.

"Uncle Fugaku, when you return, please do not tell Hokage and the clan members... anything about that man!"

Fugaku said, "Are you afraid of his threats?"

Shisui said with all his strength: "No, it's not just a deterrent of combat power... I have a strong feeling that he must know some inside information, inside information that is related to the survival of our Uchiha clan!"

After saying that...Shisui lost consciousness.

The autumn wind after the rain brings a hint of chill.

"Actually, I also have this feeling vaguely."

Fugaku murmured... and scanned the desolate and bleak Kikyo Mountain, as if he wanted to engrave every blade of grass and every tree here in his eyes.

He put a Bingliang pill into his mouth and helped Shisui up.

"I will probably never come to this place again!"

……

Konan followed Nagato with complicated eyes.

Before the war, it was me who offered to fight alongside Payne.

Although he helped Nagato collect Fugaku's blood.

But at the same time, I became a burden to him during the battle.

My current strength is too weak to be the pillar that supports Nagato.

I... must become stronger.

There was a determination in her beautiful eyes.

"Nagato..."

As if he had guessed what she wanted to say, Nagato said, "Do you want to learn that technique?"

Xiaonan nodded and said, "Yes, 'Mutual Detonation Talisman' and 'Night Sky Flower'."

Nagato groaned and said, "The Multiplication Detonation Talisman is easy to deal with, but the conditions for practicing the Ninjutsu version of the Night Sky Flower are too harsh. Konan... I'm afraid you won't be able to handle it."

Forbidden Technique: Night Sky Higanbana. The training condition is that you are not allowed to sleep for a whole year from the moment you make the training seal. If you fall asleep, all your previous efforts will be wasted and you will never be able to practice this technique again!

"Shh!"

Xiaonan resolutely made the seal of cultivation and said calmly: "So, next, I have to get used to the night."

"Okay." Nagato smiled slightly, "I'll accompany you."

Chapter 35: Candidates for Shura Road!

In the nameless land, in a nest deep underground that never sees the sun, on the experimental table, the body of White Zetsu is displayed... Complex surgical procedures are written all over its body, its head is cut open, and the incision is fixed with instruments.

Yakushi Kabuto used the knife with chakra attached to it, operating it carefully. Sweat was dripping down his face, but he didn't care at all. He just used his free fingers to push his glasses towards the bridge of his nose from time to time.

Orochimaru sat not far away, supporting his chin with one hand, staring at the data jumping on the instrument with an intellectual smile on his lips.

"Sure enough, my assumption was correct. White Zetsu uses the soul as the medium of communication. Even if the soul is imprisoned in a container like this, it can still detect the mental waves that are constantly intersecting."

"It's just that without a living body as a relay station, the information cannot be expressed vividly."

"Hmm?" Orochimaru's expression changed slightly: "This feeling is that Nagato-kun is calling me."

——The art of illusory body!

"Swoosh!" A colorful phantom of Orochimaru's body flashed in front of Nagato and Konan.

"Hey, Nagato-kun, how are you? Where is this place?"

"The Jizo Temple in the Land of Fields."

"Why don't you use the Rinnegan to communicate with me directly?"

"I'm afraid I'll delay your work, so I'll just say hello first. How's it going? Any progress?"

"Hehe... I think I'll be able to hand you the first answer sheet soon."

"It's really hard work."

"Thank you for your greetings. How is the progress over there?"

"I have already obtained four blood samples, the only one missing is that of the 'real owner'."

"What a terrifying efficiency! It just so happens that once I have some results here, I can work on the artificial cells of Hashirama on the golem and your 'real master' at the same time."

"About how long will it take?"

"Oh? Could it be that, Nagato-kun, there are other things to do besides the plan?"

"I guess so. I want to see if I can make it in time."

"In three days, my results will be ready."

"Three days? That's enough. Then we'll head north."

"Hehe, the Land of Lightning? Your target is not the one who died in such a horrific way in the recent Ninja War, right?"

"Do you know the whereabouts of his body?"

"Hehehe, you really asked the right person... Nagato-kun."

"call out!"

After the phantom disappeared, Nagato said to the people around him: "Konan, I wanted to take a hot spring bath here, but it seems that we have to hurry on our way."

"It doesn't matter. We can soak again after we finish our work."

Xiaonan has already formed the seal of practicing "Night Flower of the Other Shore". Today is the second night she has to endure, and she feels pretty good.

So the two of them didn't take time to rest and continued to rush north.

There are two unknown small countries blocking the country of fields and the country of thunder. Even if you ride on the Yatagarasu through the air, it will take at least a day.

During this time...Fugaku and Shisui also returned to the village.

During the Third Shinobi World War, the famous genius in the ninja world, Shunsui Shisui, lost an arm outdoors, and the entire Uchiha clan was in an uproar!

After returning to the village, Shisui was admitted to the Uchiha hospital, and members of the police force came upon hearing the news.

Fugaku leaned against the wall outside the ward, his arms folded across his chest, and said calmly that Shisui was injured when he accidentally touched a trap while on a mission at Kikyo Mountain.

"Injured by a trap by mistake? Hey, hey! Captain, are you kidding me? Shisui, would he make such a mistake?"

This reason was totally untenable, but since Fugaku insisted on it, they couldn't say anything.

"Damn it... at this critical moment! The village just got attacked! And this happened to Shisui!"

Hearing this, Fugaku frowned, "You said...the village was attacked?"

"Yes, two guys even broke into the Uchiha clan's base! One of them was killed by us, but the other guy was so strong that it was outrageous!"

Fugaku asked in a deep voice: "What are the characteristics of the enemy...?"

After listening to the description of his tribesmen, Fugaku broke out in a cold sweat... because those two people were exactly the same as the enemies he encountered on Mount Kikyo!

What’s even more terrifying is that, according to the tribesmen, the invader who was killed was also one of the enemies he and Shisui encountered!

The other party... even has the ability to resurrect the dead?

Although Nagato appeared in the battle, Pain's secret was so confusing that Fugaku thought about it all the time and racked his brains but still couldn't figure it out.

"By the way, Captain Fugaku... Itachi seems to know something about the inside story, but no matter how hard we ask him, he won't tell us!"

Fugaku's back left the wall, and his hand, which was on his chest, slowly lowered. He said in a calm voice, "You should return to your respective posts."

When I got home.

Itachi was sitting at the entrance, seemingly waiting for him to come back, "Father, mother has just gone to bed."

Fugaku glanced in the direction of the bedroom, "Let's talk outside then."

Itachi nodded and changed his shoes.

The father and son went to the corridor outside the house and sat down.

"Father, the real reason why Brother Shisui was injured was not because he accidentally touched the trap, but because he was given a special eye by those people..."

Fugaku's eyes were gloomy. After all, he chose not to hide the truth from his own son.

"Yes. Facing that kind of existence, losing an arm is a blessing. It was almost like that. Your brother Shisui and I didn't make it back."

"So Itachi, you need to tell father what you know."

"Zizi!" Itachi raised his head, with magatama appearing in his eyes, "Use your eyes to convey it, this way... it will be faster."

"!!" Fugaku looked at Itachi, who was only four years old, and the magatama of the Sharingan... He was shocked and stood there for a long time, unable to utter a word.

After watching...what Itachi and Mikoto experienced that night, Fugaku broke out in a cold sweat on his back.

Unexpectedly... the other party's target is not only him and Shisui, but also his wife and children!

If the other party tried to kill him... he couldn't even imagine what the consequences would be.

The Sharingan disappeared, Itachi clenched his fists, unable to hide his guilt anymore, he said: "Father... I, failed to protect mother and let her get hurt!"

"Itachi, there's no need to blame yourself! You've done very well for your age!"

"Afterwards, the tribesmen who noticed something came to question me, but I kept silent and did not report it to the village. For such a big matter, I wanted to consult my father first..."

"You are doing the right thing..."

"Dong dong!"

At this time, there was a knock on the door in the yard.

"Itachi, wait a moment."

Arriving at the door, members of the police force reported to Fugaku, "Captain, the Fourth Hokage has just gone to the clan's hospital to visit Shisui!"

"Then I have to go there too!"

"He has left, but left some gifts. He asked you to have a good rest tonight. Also..." The police officer hesitated to speak.

Fugaku asked, "Just tell me what you have to say!"

The man said, "He also wants to invite you to attend Konoha's emergency meeting tomorrow night to discuss the recent intruders in the village."

Fugaku said thoughtfully, "I know. I will attend."

After closing the door, Itachi stepped forward and said, "Father, would you like to take this opportunity to tell me about the enemy..."

Fugaku pondered for a long time, then solemnly warned: "Itachi, from now on, no matter who asks you about what happened that night, you must insist that you don't know."

Itachi asked, "I want to know why this is happening...Father."

Uchiha Fugaku, this man... at this moment he didn't even have the courage to use his Sharingan to let Itachi see the image on Mount Kikyo.

"Now, it's not the right time yet. Wait until you grow up a little bit, Itachi..."

The Land of Thunder, Yunmen Valley.

The thunder is oppressive and the rain is sad! !
