After getting Shisui's Sharingan, Naruto headed for Amegakure Village.
He guessed that after Obito failed here, he would definitely return to Amegakure Village to find Nagato as soon as possible.
If he went there quickly, he might be able to catch him in Amegakure Village.
But in the end, he was one step late.
When he arrived at Amegakure Village, only Nagato, Konan, and Jiraiya were there.
At this time, the three teachers and students had let go of their past grudges. No one knew what they had talked about.
Seeing Naruto return, Jiraiya said with a serious face, "Naruto, you've come back at the right time. The masked man just returned. We wanted to catch him, but he escaped with his strange ability!"
"Too bad."
Naruto glanced at Nagato and Konan.
If the two of them could have cooperated like they were now, they might have been able to trick Obito and catch him.
"Have you given up on your original plan?"
"What else can we do?" Nagato said without expression, but with helplessness in his words.
With Naruto's strength, even if they joined forces with the masked man, they wouldn't be able to deal with him.
Moreover, after Jiraiya's guidance, he also recalled the true meaning of what Yahiko said when he was dying.
Achieving peace through pain isn't about making the world suffer, making people suffer together, but about remaining firm in your beliefs despite the pain of losing comrades and bringing peace to the world!
For Nagato now, although this sentence was a bit difficult to accept, he was unwilling to go against Yahiko's true wishes, so he would stick with it.
In response, Naruto could only give Nagato a thumbs up in his heart, praising the greatness of his saintly heart!
"Now that you're no longer willing to collect the Tailed Beasts for him, he will definitely find a chance to take back your Rinnegan. If you don't want to die, you have to be careful in the future," Naruto advised Nagato.
"Take back?" Nagato looked at Naruto in confusion.
"The literal meaning is that your Rinnegan is not something you were born with, but belongs to Uchiha Madara!" Naruto said.
"What???"
Jiraiya, Konan, and Nagato all had confused looks on their faces.
"But why... why did these eyes appear on me when I was very young?" Nagato asked.
"Jiraiya has told you about Uchiha Madara and Black Zetsu, right? You are just pawns. Isn't it obvious why these eyes are on you?"
Naruto said calmly, "The first bird to stick its head out gets shot, and the real Uchiha Madara is dead. Relying on... that person alone can't do something like going up against the five great ninja villages. You and the other Akatsuki Organization members are just tools for them to achieve their goals."
Nagato and Konan were silent.
They knew they might be pawns, but they didn't expect to have been set up so long ago!
Are the Uchiha Clan people's hearts all so dirty?
"I won't explain any further. Anyway, if you don't want to be bothered, you can put the Rinnegan here with me."
"Give it to you? What do you want the Rinnegan for?" Nagato and Jiraiya asked guardedly.
"To lure the other party out, what else would I want them for?"
Naruto rolled his Byakugan, "You don't think I have the same ideas as you did before, do you?"
Nagato and the others thought about it,
That was true.
If Naruto had the same ideas as them before, he would have taken the Rinnegan when he defeated them. Why wait until now?
However, after thinking about it, Nagato still refused Naruto.
"We can protect the Rinnegan well, and we will definitely not let Uchiha Madara get his hands on it!"
Looking at Nagato, who was inexplicably confident, Naruto was speechless.
Back then, when Konan used six hundred billion explosive tags to blow up Obito, she was just as confident. What was the result?
Didn't she still fail?
"Suit yourself."
After saying that, Naruto turned and left.
He was confident that with his strength, even if Obito got the Rinnegan, he wouldn't be a match for him.
So he let Nagato guard the eyes.
Moreover, with Jiraiya providing information, Obito, having lost his mysterious advantage, wouldn't get his hands on it so easily.
On the other side, Uchiha Obito, who had experienced the deaths of Black Zetsu and Kisame, and the betrayal of Nagato and Konan, was filled with anger and confusion.
After planning for so many years, seeing that the time to fully launch the plan was getting closer and closer, he didn't expect to be back to square one in an instant...
The Akatsuki Organization had lost control, the information network was dead, and his loyal subordinate Kisame was also dead. He had now truly become a lonely person!
"Uzumaki Naruto!!"
Uchiha Obito clenched his fists, wishing he could go back to the night Kushina gave birth a dozen years ago and smash him to death!
If he had known that the future Uzumaki Naruto would be so troublesome, he would have killed this kid first, even if it meant giving up on the Nine Tails and not destroying Konoha Village!
But unfortunately, it was all too late!
Uzumaki Naruto had already become a force to be reckoned with, and judging from his relationships, the other party had very few flaws, almost none!
It would be very difficult to deal with such a guy!
After thinking for a long time in the dark secret room, Uchiha Obito's gaze locked onto one direction - the Land of Wind!
He would not give up easily!
Since all the previous plans had failed, then he would start over!
"Rin, wait for me, I will definitely create a world with you!"
...
Otogakure Village,
Naruto didn't know that Uchiha Obito was planning to stir up trouble again.
At this time, he had brought the remains of Black Zetsu to Orochimaru's laboratory!
In the dim corridor, Yakushi Kabuto was leading the way in front of him.
"Orochimaru-sama is doing a very important experiment and cannot leave at the moment, so I can only come and pick you up!"
"It's fine."
If Yakushi Kabuto hadn't appeared at the door, he wouldn't have even planned to meet Yakushi Kabuto and would have sneaked in.
He wanted to see how easy it was to enter this research institute.
Now, watching Yakushi Kabuto lead the way like a traitor, he understood how easy it was to sneak into the laboratory!
After passing a corner, the originally dim laboratory suddenly became bright.
However, these lights flickered on and off, seeming very unstable.
Yakushi Kabuto knew that Naruto must be curious, so he took the initiative to explain, "What's kept here are some products of failed combinations of living things and Gelel Stone. They were originally ordinary, normal lives, but after coming into contact with Gelel Stone, they were found to have undergone changes."
"Some of them can discharge electricity, some can spit water, and some, although they can't do anything, have become unusually smart with exceptional memory!"
"Orochimaru-sama discovered the special nature of how Gelel Stone affects and changes humans, so he collected so many experimental samples!"
When talking about samples, Yakushi Kabuto's eyes had a smile, excitedly and morbidly staring at the individual human test subjects inside the glass罩.
In his eyes, humans were no different from the lab rats being experimented on.
