Chapter 42 - Chapter 42: The Konoha Crush Plan

Nagato finally stood up!

After being nourished by Yang Release for many days, Nagato's empty and frail body finally recovered its health.

The originally skin-and-bones body also gradually became full now.

Even the most severely injured legs completely returned to their original state, becoming the same as those of a normal person.

Nagato held Konan's hand and, bit by bit, moved back and forth at the top of the tower.

Konan, her face full of excitement, spoke incoherently in gratitude toward Yasuo: "Yasuo, I do not even know how I should thank you!"

"Thank you for your help. Only then could Nagato stand up again."

"Aiya, aiya, Konan, you do not need to be so polite." Yasuo waved his hand with a smiling expression and said politely, "Nagato is originally a descendant of the Uzumaki Clan. His recovery ability is originally very strong. It was only dragged down by the Rinnegan, so his recovery ability could not show its effect, which made him look like a dried-up person."

"I only fed the Rinnegan to fullness. Nagato's own recovery ability naturally would show its effect, allowing his body to recover again."

Nagato and Konan merely took him as making polite remarks, and they did not think at all about why their own Rinnegan would instead be a burden. They still expressed endless gratitude toward him.

After Nagato moved around for several circles, he once again sat back down and solemnly promised: "Yasuo, the matter I promised you, naturally I will do it."

"The mission on Sasori's side also went very well. Kakuzu has already been successfully recruited. They can return to Amegakure very soon."

"Gather everyone for a meeting. After they return, we will attack Konohagakure and let the people of the great nations also feel the pain of war!"

After Uchiha Yasuo heard this, his heart immediately filled with great delight.

"Haha…"

"Excellent. I finally waited for this day!"

Uchiha Yasuo immediately went out and personally notified everyone to come to the top of the tower for a meeting.

Now that Nagato's body had recovered, naturally there was no need for him to hide behind the scenes anymore. He could completely stand at the front and take control of the entire Akatsuki Organization.

If anyone dared not to obey, he could completely suppress them by force.

Very soon, everyone arrived at the top of the tower and gathered together.

Nagato sat at the head position in the meeting room, and behind him the Six Paths of Pain stood in a straight line. Without needing to say anything, just by standing there, anyone stared at by seven pairs of Rinnegan would feel their hair stand on end.

Previously, the one active outside was always the Deva Path Pain, and everyone also thought Pain was the leader of the Akatsuki Organization.

Last time, when facing Namikaze Minato, the Asura Path showed itself once, but after that it disappeared without a trace.

Although the others in the Akatsuki Organization were also surprised at the appearance of a second pair of Rinnegan, afterward all kinds of matters such as the so-called "Uchiha Madara," the so-called "prophecy" of future Mangekyō Sharingan, the so-called "Immortality Technique," and the so-called "Nagato" severely injured behind Pain… came one after another, dazzling them and making them not pay much attention to this matter.

After all, one pair of Rinnegan was already invincible. Even if there was another pair, it was not a big deal.

Anyway, they simply could not win against it!

But sitting here right now, they discovered that what was opposite them was not merely two pairs of Rinnegan, but a full seven pairs!

Seven pairs!

What kind of concept was this?

How many people were even in the Akatsuki Organization?

If each pair of Rinnegan was as formidable as Pain, then why would they still need to recruit S-rank rogue ninjas?

With this power, they could directly crush the entire shinobi world, could they not?

Facing the crowd filled with doubt and fear, Nagato did not hide anything and directly spoke: "I am Nagato, and also Pain."

"All along, because of severe injuries, I could only recuperate atop the tower, with Pain appearing and taking command of the Akatsuki Organization."

"Now, thanks to Uchiha Yasuo's help, my injuries have finally recovered."

"From today onward, I will stand at the front and let the entire shinobi world feel pain, and thereby begin to cherish the value of peace."

"Pain and the other five are puppets created by the Rinnegan-attached ninjutsu 'Six Paths of Reincarnation.'"

"As for the specific information, I will not say more. Everyone only needs to know that those six all represent my will."

After everyone heard this, they immediately sucked in a cold breath.

They had already witnessed Pain's strength in the past, and now they learned that such a powerful individual was merely a human puppet.

Then how powerful was the leader Nagato, who controlled six human puppets?

No wonder Uchiha Yasuo dared to say that once Nagato recovered his health, he would be invincible under heaven!

This was truly too frightening!

Orochimaru had previously heard from Uchiha Yasuo about the Sage of Six Paths' method of immortality, which used the Rinnegan together with the Ten-Tails' jinchūriki, so although he had already begun working on the matter of the Tenseigan, he was not without greed for the Rinnegan.

If Uchiha Yasuo could scheme for something, then why could he, Orochimaru, not?

But now, the moment he saw these six puppets, his entire heart immediately turned half cold.

After all, this was the Sage of Six Paths' method!

So strong!

But at the same time, he also began to look forward to the power of the Tenseigan.

Uchiha Yasuo had said that the power of the Tenseigan was not much weaker than that of the Rinnegan.

That was to say, even if Uchiha Yasuo's words were somewhat inaccurate, and the Tenseigan was not as good as the Rinnegan, its power would presumably not be far off, right?

As for the little thoughts of the people present, Nagato did not pay much attention. He only waved his hand and had Uchiha Yasuo share information with everyone.

Uchiha Yasuo also did not decline. When it came to leaking Konohagakure's intelligence secrets, he was extremely enthusiastic.

"Konohagakure is the strongest shinobi village in the shinobi world. There are countless powerful shinobi inside it, and those secret techniques and forbidden techniques are as numerous as cattle."

"I will only talk about information related to individuals with relatively high threat, but when in combat, it is not impossible to encounter individuals outside the intelligence."

"First are the Sannin. Orochimaru-san is already one of us, so we skip him."

"Tsunade-hime can also be skipped."

"Although her Monster Strength Technique is very strong, and she has the bloodline of the Senju Clan, with extremely high endurance, she has now developed hemophobia and cannot enter battle anymore."

"If you engage in battle with her, do not confront her head-on. You only need to splash blood onto her body, and her combat strength will immediately drop to zero."

"You only need to make good use of the time and not let the shinobi of Konohagakure rescue her, and she can be eliminated easily."

"Also, do not provoke her with words. Otherwise, if you over-stimulate her and her hemophobia is cured, then it will be troublesome."

"The only thing to pay attention to is that she has a contract with the Slug Sage, and she can summon a large number of slugs to replenish chakra and treat injuries for the shinobi of Konohagakure."

"If this happens, she does not need to participate in combat at all. She only needs to sit at the rear and can bring us a certain amount of trouble."

"As for Jiraiya, who is also one of the Sannin, he has already mastered Sage Art…"

"And Might Guy—no one knows how many Gates of the Eight Gates he has already mastered…"

"The mutual-destruction forbidden techniques also require caution, especially the Dead Demon Consuming Seal. Once struck, there is almost no way to undo it…"

Uchiha Yasuo crackled through all the information he knew. The level of detail was such that even the Third Hokage himself might not be more familiar with it.

Everyone listened in alarm, even more convinced that Uchiha Yasuo's Mangekyō Sharingan dojutsu was "healing and prophecy," but at the same time even more wary of Uchiha Yasuo, likewise worrying whether their own information had also been grasped by him in such detail.
