I, Yu Uchiha, am devoted to cultivating immortality

Chapter 284 Akatsuki Organization Expansion and Final Weapon Plan

Nagato took a piece of information and read it carefully several times.

Finally, he handed the information to Konan behind him and said with emotion: "The war between Konoha Village and Sunagakure Village has just ended, and the war between Iwagakure Village and Kumogakure Village is about to reach its climax."

"The flames of war never stop. The ninja world is really a miserable hell."

Nagato's emotion had no effect on Konan. This blue-haired girl did not have bright eyesight. She only cared about the people and the land around her.

Nagato defeated the coalition forces of Iwagakure, Sand Hidden Village and Konoha Village last time, allowing sunshine to return to the sky of the Country of Rain and rebuilding peace on the land of the Country of Rain.

Seeing the people in the Kingdom of Rain repairing their houses and planting water, wheat and other crops with peace of mind, and seeing the relieved smiles on their faces, Xiaonan was very satisfied.

"The ninjas of great countries love to fight and kill so much. Let them be. As long as they don't come to our Country of Rain to cause destruction, whether they die or not has nothing to do with us."

"Xiaonan, you can't look at it like this."

Nagato disagreed with Konan's idea and explained: "The Country of Rain is a part of the Ninja World, and it is also one of the core points of the Ninja World. If the entire Ninja World is in chaos, the Country of Rain cannot be in it. Out of this world.”

Xiaonan asked in surprise: "Isn't your last record enough to deter them? How dare they come to the Kingdom of Rain?"

Nagato couldn't help but be stunned: "It shouldn't be possible..."

Xiaonan tilted her head and asked, "Then what are you worried about?"

Nagato thought for a while and said, "I'm not worried about anything, but I feel that I saved the Land of Rain, and I should also stand up to save the entire ninja world."

"no!"

Konan immediately shouted: "Nagato! Absolutely not! Your power is too great. The last time you used it with all your strength, you almost hurt yourself. Have you forgotten?"

Nagato couldn't help but frowned and said, "Are we just going to watch the war in the ninja world continue? Konan, have you forgotten Yahiko's dream?"

"If Yahiko is still alive now and has my power, will he watch the people of other countries in the ninja world being devastated by war and remain indifferent?"

Konan's firm opposition softened when she heard Yahiko's name.

She lowered her head, but her tears fell down drop by drop, and she said in a tearful voice, "But, Nagato, what should you do? Every time you use your full power, you are at risk of death. I don't want to lose you."

"I, I have no choice but to ask for that life-saving elixir anymore."

Nagato laughed: "Don't worry, Xiaonan, I'm not a lunatic who will seek death. I have already found a solution to my physical problems."

He looked at the corner of the room, looked at the darkness in the corner, and said, "Come out, Zetsu."

"Yes, Nagato-sama."

The fusion of black and white emerged from the shadows on the ground, saluted Nagato respectfully, and then saluted Konan politely and said hello: "Hello, senior."

Konan didn't buy it. She suddenly stood in front of Nagato, staring at Black and White Zetsu with her eyes. In the cracked gap on her cheek, layers of detonating symbols unfolded like a book.

After confirming that there was absolutely no movement in Black and White, she asked, "Who are you?"

Black and white Zetsu replied respectfully: "I am a new member who has just joined the Akatsuki organization. You can call me by my name - Zetsu."

Konan asked without looking back: "Nagato?"

Nagato smiled and replied: "Xonan, don't be so nervous, he doesn't mean any harm."

"You should also have discovered that Jue's concealment ability is very impressive. He met me a few days ago and communicated with me alone."

"If he had a problem, something would have happened to me."

Black Zetsu smiled and said: "Nagato-sama, you are joking. You are the strongest in the ninja world. If I dare to have any bad thoughts towards you, I will be crushed to death by you."

Konan relaxed a little, but she still asked cautiously: "I really can't feel his breath, Nagato, can you feel it?"

Nagato nodded and replied: "Don't worry, Xiaonan, nothing can be hidden from my eyes."

"Jue's concealment is indeed powerful as never before, but it is invisible to my eyes."

After hearing Nagato's confirmed answer, Xiaonan was completely relieved. She lowered her head and thought for a moment before retreating to Nagato's side.

Then she said to Zetsu: "Since Nagato trusts you, I will trust you."

Black and White Jue smiled flatteringly and said, "Thank you, Senior Xiaonan, for your trust."

Nagato smiled and said: "He is definitely a very thoughtful person. He is not a ninja, but he has mastered the power of chakra. Not only is he good at concealing his own aura, but he has also developed very interesting ninjutsu props."

"This ninjutsu tool developed by Zetsu is very useful to me. His own intelligence ability is also very valuable. The most important thing is that his dream is peace in the ninja world, true peace."

"That's why I accepted him to join Akatsuki and became the first new member the Akatsuki organization absorbed after its rebirth."

Xiaonan asked curiously: "What kind of ninja tool is it and how can it help you?"

Black and white Zetsu immediately answered: "This is an anthropomorphic doll developed based on wood escape. It can be worn on the body like clothes, providing chakra and vitality support to the owner, and even allows the host to use wood escape ninjutsu."

Konan was immediately shocked: "Wood Release? That is the signature ninjutsu of Konoha Village. Can your ninja tool have such an effect?"

Black and White Zetsu immediately waved his hands: "Senior Xiaonan, you must not say that. My ninja tool is not as powerful as the Wood Release of Konoha Village. At most, it can make wood and control trees."

"It's completely different from the powerful blood succession limit of Konoha Village Mudun, which destroys the world."

Black and white Zetsu pretended to be very frightened and said fearfully: "If the Konoha ninjas know that my ninja tool has the power of wood release, I will definitely be found and killed by the Konoha ninjas."

Nagato snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "Zetsu, I have told you a long time ago that you will not be in any danger with me. If the ninjas of Konoha dare to cause trouble for you, I will let them all die. "

Black and white Zetsu deliberately showed his distrust of Nagato and said tremblingly: "But...but the Mudun ninjas in Konoha Village are not as powerful as ninjas."

"I have been to Sunagakure Village. He turned the entire Sunagakure Village into a primitive forest. Even now, those big trees have not been knocked down by Sunagakure ninjas. That is simply a miracle."

"If Konoha Village sends this terrifying ninja to Amegakure Village..."

"That's enough, Zetsu!"

Nagato interrupted Zetsu's chatter unceremoniously and said to him: "What kind of god are the Wooden ninjas of Konoha Village? I am the one in front of you! I am the only true god in the ninja world, the only one!"

Xiaonan couldn't help but reached out and pressed Nagato's shoulder, reminding: "Nagato..."

Nagato took a few deep breaths and explained to Konan: "I'm not wrong. Your Emperor is not in the ninja world. Of course I am the only true god in the ninja world..."

Xiaonan couldn't help but laugh and cry because of this explanation, which was like a child's cheating.

"You should have enough respect for His Majesty. How could you act like a rogue?"

Nagato still said angrily: "The Emperor of Heaven can do miraculous things, and I can also create miraculous new terrains at will. I am no worse than him."

This time Xiaonan didn't bother to talk to him, she just looked at him with her beautiful eyes.

After being stared at for a long time, Nagato finally lowered his head and said, "Okay, I will try my best to respect His Majesty the Emperor from now on."

The conversation between Nagato and Konan made Hei Zetsu look confused.

He was thinking in his mind: Who is the Emperor of Heaven and what is God?

Nagato, who possesses the Reincarnation Eye, has reached the threshold of the Sixth Level with his power, which can be proved by the black rod made by Nagato.

Having mastered the power of the Six Paths, it would be completely understandable for Nagato to call himself a god.

Not everyone has enough insight to know the difference between God and power.

However, the God that Nagato can recognize must not be an ordinary existence.

In particular, Black Zetsu could tell that Nagato was very confident in his own power and thought he was superior to the god he was talking about, but he also admitted that the miracles performed by that god were beyond his ability.

[Such an existence really sounds like a god. Could it be that the god who was wiped out by his mother and Hagoromo appears again? 】

[God is also a force, at least more powerful than a ninja. I wonder if it can be used by me? ]     Seeing Nagato lower his head, Xiaonan didn't feel sorry for himself. He turned to Black and White Zetsu and asked, "Take out your wooden escape ninja tool and let me see it."

Black and White Zetsu nodded in agreement, and then began to split his existence in front of the two people, becoming Black Zetsu and White Zetsu on the spot.

"The human form I named Bai Jue is the creation of the wood-escape power I created."

Xiao Nan looked at Hei Jue and said, "Is this also called Jue? Then I will call you Hei Jue."

Hei Jue shrugged and said nonchalantly: "Senior, you can call me that, I have no problem."

Xiaonan moved forward and inspected it carefully, confirming that it was a magical ninja tool, but she also asked to experience it for herself.

"This is torn from you, I don't want it."

Konan looked at Black Zetsu and demanded, "Get me a brand new White Zetsu."

Black Zetsu deliberately put on a desperate look, turned to look at Nagato, and prayed: "Chief..."

Nagato laughed loudly and said: "Xonan, I made this request two days ago, and I have already asked for one for you, but Zetsu, oh, it takes time for Black Zetsu to make a new White Zetsu, and we all have to wait a little longer. wait."

Xiaonan nodded and said, "Okay, wait a minute."

Nagato said: "In short, Black Zetsu is the first core member of the Akatsuki organization after its expansion, but the Akatsuki organization cannot only have three people."

"In order to achieve peace in the ninja world, we need more partners and stronger power."

"Hei Zetsu, you are best at detecting intelligence. Help me find powerful ninjas in the ninja world who do not belong to the five major ninja villages. I will recruit them to join the Akatsuki organization based on your intelligence."

Black Zetsu merged with White Zetsu again, and then said respectfully: "I obey, my lord."

Nagato continued to make requests: "At the same time, you cannot relax your monitoring of the direction of the war. I want to know the latest intelligence."

Hei Jue nodded and replied: "Please rest assured, Mr. Leader, I will ensure that the information is accurate and timely."

However, he still added: "In the entire ninja world, there is only one place I dare not go to: Konoha Village. The power of the Wooden Ninja is too terrifying, and I can't enter."

When Nagato heard these words, a trace of anger and a trace of uncertainty suddenly ignited in his eyes.

Hei Zetsu was silent and was only discovered by himself after he lurked in front of him. Are the Mudun ninjas of Konoha Village so powerful?

He couldn't help but ask: "You can sneak into the Hidden Rain Village and come in front of me, but you say that you can't enter the Leaf Village. In your opinion, that Wooden ninja is stronger than me?"

Hei Jue quickly shook his head and said: "No, no, no, of course you are more powerful, leader, but you know that I am not powerful, I am just good at hiding."

"And my hidden ninjutsu is derived from the wood escape ninjutsu, so I dare not enter the vicinity of the wood escape ninja. He will definitely be able to detect my presence and will kill me without hesitation."

"Chief, I don't want to die yet. I still want to see the day when the ninja world is peaceful."

Hearing Hei Zetsu's words that pierced his heart, Nagato's heart softened, and even Konan felt that Hei Zetsu was more pleasing to the eye.

Nagato said: "Go and carry out my mission. As for the Wooden ninja in Konoha Village, one day I will kill him with my own hands."

"Yes!"

After saying that, Hei Jue walked to the corner of the house, sank into the darkness, and disappeared.

Xiao Nan couldn't help but frown, and walked over to check it carefully, but found no trace at all.

She turned back to Nagato and asked, "Can you still see this guy?"

Nagato nodded slightly. He looked at a certain angle in front of him with his Samsara Eye, and his head moved slowly.

After waiting for a long time, he said: "Hei Jue has left my sight. He is still quite fast."

Xiao Nan breathed a sigh of relief. This dark weirdo's ability to conceal his aura was so strong that she couldn't detect it at all.

But as long as Nagato can see it, there's no problem.

Konan breathed a sigh of relief, but soon became nervous again. He looked at Nagato and asked, "What happened, and which one are you going to kill to bring peace to the ninja world?"

Nagato suddenly decided to expand the Akatsuki organization and seriously prepared to bring peace to the ninja world, which filled Konan's heart with doubts.

She and Nagato Yahiko wandered together, grew up together, and knew each other very well.

Even though Nagato's mentality changed drastically due to Yahiko's death, his character did not change. He was still so hesitant and hesitant.

A situation like this that suddenly made him make up his mind must have had a very important reason or even a specific plan to happen.

Konan knew all the people Nagato came into contact with recently. Only this Black Zetsu appeared suddenly. He must have brought changes to Nagato.

So Xiaonan should ask carefully.

Nagato had nothing to hide from Konan. After being questioned, he spoke about the new information he had obtained from Black Zetsu and the new plan he designed based on it.

Xiaonan said word by word: "The final weapons plan?"

Nagato nodded and replied: "Yes, the final weapons plan."

"Since I defeated the ninja armies of the three major ninja villages in the Country of Rain, the Country of Rain has gained peace. Only then can we begin to build the Country of Rain and heal the wounds of the war in this country."

"Xiaonan, a few years ago, Yahiko led us to establish the Akatsuki organization and spread the idea of ​​peace. Hanzo in Amegakure Village also recognized us and accepted our ideas."

"But in the end, Hanzo actually colluded with the Leaf Village, betrayed us, and killed Yahiko."

"Only now do I realize that perhaps it was not Hanzo who actively betrayed us, but that the power of Konoha Village was too strong, and Hanzo could only be forced to accept Konoha Village's request."

"Through these two things, I truly understood that peace requires the guarantee of strength."

"Fifty years ago, the chaos in the ninja world was more terrifying than it is now. But the first Hokage conquered the ninja world with his wood attack and was known as the God of Ninja. After he founded the Leaf Village, didn't he maintain peace for more than ten years?"

"Senju Hashirama is only known as the God of Ninja, but I have truly mastered the power of God. I can definitely do what he can do."

Konan nodded in agreement, but said worriedly: "But after Senju Hashirama died, the ninja world was still in chaos, and Teacher Jiraiya said that the scale and destructive power of wars in the ninja village era were greater than those in the Warring States Period. Wars are more exaggerated.”

Nagato also nodded and said: "So I can't place my hope for peace entirely on myself."

"Although I have mastered the power of God, I am not an immortal god. You and I will both die one day."

Xiaonan said: "So you thought of this 'Final Weapon Plan'?"

"I remember Mr. Jiraiya once said that the first Hokage Senju Hashirama also pinned his hopes on powerful weapons, so he captured the tailed beasts in the ninja world, and..."

Nagato continued: "And Senju Hashirama assigned the tailed beasts to the five major ninja villages at the time, hoping to maintain a balance of power among the ninja villages and thus maintain peace in the ninja world."

Nagato's voice became louder, and he said bitterly: "The problem lies in balance!"

"Among the original five great ninja villages, Taki-nin Village declined rapidly. Even though it had Nanao, it was still reduced to a small ninja village. However, Sunagakure Village rose rapidly and took the place of Taki-nin Village."

"If the five major ninja villages cannot guarantee their own strength, how can the balance between them be maintained?"

“Only by concentrating the strongest forces to form an irresistible sole power can we use this power to maintain peace.”

"So, my goal is: one weapon, one ninja village, one voice, and eternal peace."

Konan was convinced, and she asked: "Nagato, how to make this most powerful weapon?"

Nagato smiled and said: "Fortunately, in the end, the embryo with the best weapon is in my hands, and that is the Heretic Golem."

"what?"

Konan's eyes widened in surprise. She covered her mouth with her hands and looked at Nagato in disbelief.
