Looking at Nagato's determined expression, Konan did not speak again.
Even though deep down, Konan always had a very bad feeling about this attack on Kirigakure.
But Konan knew that Nagato would absolutely not give up on this plan to attack the Mist Ninja Village.
Since that was the case...
Konan looked at Nagato and asked softly:
"When are we going to the Mist Ninja Village?"
Nagato slowly raised his head, his Rinnegan looking straight ahead, and said calmly, "Now!"
At this time, in another dark room of the Akatsuki Organization.
Uchiha Obito looked at the suddenly appearing Zetsu with some confusion: "What's wrong?"
"Nagato is going to attack the Mist Ninja Village, we need to prepare in advance."
Black Zetsu said calmly.
Attack Kirigakure?
Uchiha Obito's expression changed in surprise, now was not the time.
After all, the plan had only just reached the second step, and the current Akatsuki could not be easily exposed to the sight of other Ninja Villages.
"Why didn't you stop him?" Uchiha Obito looked at Zetsu, a hint of dissatisfaction in his voice.
"We follow your orders only to help Uchiha Madara-sama perfect the plan, not to truly pledge allegiance to you."
Black Zetsu looked at Uchiha Obito and continued coldly, "The original plan is no longer feasible, we can only activate the second plan left by Uchiha Madara-sama now."
Uchiha Obito was startled, and his face under the mask instantly darkened. As expected, Uchiha Madara still had other means left behind back then.
"Now our positions are reversed, you will assist me."
Black Zetsu's voice sounded again, entering Uchiha Obito's ears.
Uchiha Obito's eyes narrowed slightly, and a hint of anger flashed in his eyes. A mere artificial creature actually wants me to assist him!
However, remembering Uchiha Madara's terror, Uchiha Obito was somewhat silent. Obito also wanted to witness the backup plan left by Uchiha Madara.
Uchiha Obito was silent for a moment and said, "Okay!"
Black Zetsu saw Uchiha Obito agree and showed no emotional fluctuation.
How could Black Zetsu, who had lived for a thousand years, not detect Uchiha Obito's little thoughts from just now?
"But I'm still a little curious, is it just because the Akatsuki Organization was exposed that we have to activate other means?"
Uchiha Obito looked at Black Zetsu, a hint of disbelief in his eyes.
"Of course not, there is a more important reason, and you will know it soon."
Black Zetsu did not explain, saying calmly.
Uchiha Obito spread his hands and asked Black Zetsu, "Then what do we do now?"
Black Zetsu said without hesitation, "Head to the Mist Ninja Village!"

Land of Water · Mist Ninja Village.
As a Village that is covered in dense fog all year round, for some unknown reason, the weather has been exceptionally clear lately.
This made many civilians who had adapted to living in the dense fog feel somewhat unaccustomed for a while.
However, clear weather always makes people feel happy.
In a forest some distance away from the Mist Ninja Village.
A man wearing a black robe with red clouds, with orange hair, slowly walked out of the forest, following the Mist Ninja Village in the distance with a blank expression.
Animal Path, one of the Six Paths of Pain!
This location was still a bit far from the Mist Ninja Village.
Animal Path surveyed the surroundings with his eyes, and after finding no Ninja figures around, his body lowered slightly, and then he suddenly darted towards the direction of the Mist Ninja Village.
Animal Path ran quickly, constantly using the surrounding trees or rocks to conceal his figure during the run.
Just as Animal Path was getting closer and closer to the Mist Ninja Village, a sound of something cutting through the air suddenly came from the front.
Immediately after, a kunai was shot directly at a spot not far in front of Animal Path.
Animal Path's rapidly advancing body paused slightly, then stopped. He raised his head with a blank expression and looked in the direction the kunai had come from.
Not far ahead, a young man was sitting casually on a large rock, propping up his chin, looking at him with interest.
Animal Path was silent for a moment: "Was I discovered?"
"Oh, you're a bit faster than I expected. If you had come any later, I would have gone looking for you."
Yūto said with a bright smile on his face, looking at Animal Path.
"It seems Kisame Hoshigaki has revealed all the information about Akatsuki. If that's the case, then we can only kill everyone who knows!"
Hearing Yūto's words, Animal Path still spoke coldly.
Yūto blinked his eyes and said with a laugh, "That's quite decisive, but that depends on whether you have the ability."
As Yūto's voice fell, Yūto's figure had already disappeared from the spot.
Animal Path's Rinnegan quickly scanned around, while his hands were ready to quickly press on the ground.
Poof!
A spurt of blood splashed out!
Animal Path immediately stopped his intended Summoning Technique action, forcibly twisted his body, and quickly retreated backward.
But even so, one arm was still easily twisted off by Yūto.
"If your movements are too slow, you won't even be able to form hand signs in front of me."
Yūto casually threw Animal Path's arm onto the ground, watching Animal Path quickly retreat, a faint smile on his face the entire time.
While quickly retreating, Animal Path also quickly pressed his remaining arm onto his own body.
Bang! Bang!
A series of white smoke appeared in front of Yūto.
When the white smoke dissipated, six figures stood together in perfect alignment, looking directly at Yūto in front of them.
"So one arm can still be used for the Summoning Technique."
Yūto looked at Animal Path with a surprised gaze in his eyes. He really didn't know this point.
"Information has been leaked, the Mist Ninja Village is indeed prepared in advance. Since that's the case, let's start with you."
Deva Path stood in the center of the six figures, his tone unusually calm.
Bang!
Accompanied by a muffled sound from the front, Asura Path's figure was the first to rush towards Yūto.
In just two jumps, Asura Path had appeared in front of Yūto.
Asura Path suddenly raised the fist in his hand and punched towards Yūto.
Yūto's body flashed, and he directly moved horizontally from his original position to Asura Path's side.
While dodging Asura Path's attack, Yūto raised the fist in his hand and slammed it towards Asura Path's head.
Bang!
A muffled sound exploded directly.
Half of Asura Path's head was blown away by Yūto's punch, revealing the gears spinning inside.
"One down, now it's your turn."
Yūto's eyes narrowed slightly, looking at the Six Paths of Pain in front of him and speaking with a smile.
Nagato's main body should not be far from here. Before I find him, it seems I can only fight these six guys first.
