Clang!
In the crisp sound of metal clashing, Nagato barely managed to block the attack of the greatsword Samehada with a Kunai.
Several spikes that erupted from the greatsword pierced his arm.
Samehada, almost starved to death, saw Chakra after a long absence and began to absorb it frantically.
Nagato originally wanted to endure the injured arm and release ninjutsu to cooperate with his companions, severely injuring the enemy in one fell swoop.
But feeling the Chakra in his body flowing away rapidly as if a dam had burst, he was shocked!
Under the insight of the Rinnegan.
Seeing that Konan and Yahiko's support had arrived.
He struggled to lift the greatsword Samehada, wanting to take the opportunity to create distance.
But the Hidden Mist Anbu in front of him completely ignored the attacks of Yahiko and Konan behind him.
The greatsword Samehada changed from a slap to a stab!
The strange greatsword also directly opened its mouth full of saliva, as if wanting to swallow him into its belly!
Puff puff puff puff~
Konan's paper Shuriken mixed with explosive tags pierced Yamanaka Kei's body transformed by the Water Transformation Technique.
Yahiko's Kunai wrapped in wind attribute Chakra also pierced the gap in his right scapula, splashing water everywhere.
"Yahiko, retreat! Nagato, use Lightning Release!"
Seeing that Yahiko's attack was still aimed at incapacitating the enemy rather than killing him, Konan hurriedly shouted anxiously.
Bang~
The Rinnegan's repulsive force came from the greatsword Samehada.
Sensing the danger, but having no time to cast a jutsu, Nagato barely used the power of the Rinnegan to blast away the giant mouth dripping with saliva in front of him.
Yamanaka Kei relied on the Super-Speed Reaction provided by Zero Frame Startup.
Before the repulsive force arrived, his upper body twisted a bizarre one hundred and eighty degrees in the special state of the Water Transformation Technique.
Yahiko's expression changed drastically as he was about to retreat.
Before he could react.
The Hidden Mist Anbu in front of him actually used the repulsive force of Nagato's Rinnegan to suddenly accelerate his attack.
In a flash, the opponent's fist had already landed on his cheek!
Boom~
"Yahiko!"
Accompanied by the exclamations of Konan and Nagato, Yahiko, who flew out sideways, slammed heavily into the steel wall on the side.
Apparently, he had been directly knocked unconscious by this powerful punch!
Boom
The repulsive force of the Rinnegan behind him sent Yamanaka Kei and the greatsword Samehada flying.
Konan was just about to ignite the explosive tags in her paper shuriken when she saw the Hidden Mist Anbu's legs suddenly thicken significantly!
He stomped on the steel floor, forcibly twisting his body, and rushed in front of her in the blink of an eye.
"Konan!"
Nagato shouted, wanting to use Almighty Pull to suck Konan to his side before the enemy could act.
But his body's reaction speed was far inferior to the enemy's swift movements!
Yamanaka Kei swung the greatsword Samehada in his hand, blocking the pulling force of Nagato's Almighty Pull.
Samehada, driven mad by hunger, didn't care that it had just been thwarted by Nagato.
Following the force of the Almighty Pull, it flew towards him again.
Boom!
Another muffled sound.
Nagato had just leaped up to avoid the greatsword Samehada being pulled towards him by Almighty Pull.
Looking up, he saw Konan's body had already collapsed to the ground.
And that Hidden Mist Anbu, like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, charged into the Akatsuki members.
Relying solely on taijutsu, he easily sent everyone flying onto the surrounding walls.
"Hatoyosuke! Daibutsu! Kiyomi!"
Nagato's eyes were bloodshot as he formed hand seals, wanting to overdraw his body and unleash the strongest power of the Rinnegan he currently possessed.
But the Hidden Mist Anbu had already placed his hand on Konan's head.
Scanning the surroundings, he saw that all his companions were seriously injured and unconscious, but seemed to be out of mortal danger.
Nagato suppressed the panic and unease in his heart and said.
"You! What exactly do you want to do!"
"Guess?"
Whoosh ~ Thud!
The whistling wind came from the back of his head, and Nagato didn't have time to react before he felt his vision go black.
He staggered forward, then fell straight to the ground.
"This strength is a bit lacking!"
Yamanaka Kei's Shadow Clone caught the unconscious Nagato.
The greatsword Samehada not only had the Contract Seal he had set up to prevent the Mist Village from summoning it back.
It also had several Flying Thunder God Marks engraved on it.
Focused on the enemy in front of him and his injured comrade, he completely ignored the weapon that had flown behind him.
In the end, he's still young, with far too little combat experience.
Raising his hand to catch the small glass bottle thrown by the main body, the Shadow Clone was just about to start digging out the eye when the main body's voice suddenly came.
"Stop!"
Yamanaka Kei looked at Nagato's stat interface and inwardly sent Black Zetsu a flowery barrage of curses.
He had just used the system to roughly scan the names and identities of everyone present.
But because of the large number of people, he hadn't carefully looked at each person's stats.
Now, focusing his attention on Nagato.
He immediately noticed something was wrong.
...
Name: Nagato
Occupation: Ninja
Stats: Blood of Ancestry (Purple), Pseudo-Rinnegan (Purple), Six Release Mastery (Blue), Kagura Mind's Eye (Blue), Intelligent (Green), Puppet Technique Proficiency (Green), Inseparable (White), Blind Obedience (Gray).
...
Blood of Ancestry (Purple): Pure Uzumaki Clan bloodline, after being stimulated by the Yin-Yang Six Paths power in the Rinnegan, gradually mutated, greatly increasing affinity for Water, Earth, Fire, Wind, Lightning, and Yang Release attributes; greatly increasing vitality and Chakra reserves.
Pseudo-Rinnegan (Purple): Using the power of the Six Paths Yin-Yang Release, based on the Transformation Technique, and fused with the power of the God Tree, a pseudo-Rinnegan forcibly created from a Three-Tomoe Sharingan, possessing a large amount of Rinnegan energy, capable of using some of the Six Paths powers, the eye will be destroyed after the power is exhausted.
"Black Zetsu... Six Paths power, Transformation Technique, you really used it to the extreme..."
Yamanaka Kei took a deep breath and, out of caution, had the Shadow Clone start checking the bodies of these Akatsuki Members.
Could Black Zetsu have guessed that he knew Madara Uchiha had awakened the Rinnegan and transplanted it into Nagato?
It shouldn't be possible in theory.
But he is, after all, an old schemer who has lived for nearly a thousand years.
After Madara Uchiha's sudden death, it wouldn't be strange for him to do anything.
But deliberately letting Tobi attack the Konoha ninjas who came to Rain Ninja Village to complete a mission, making Konoha notice the newly developing Akatsuki, and leaving behind these fake Rinnegan...
Is it just to fool him?
Or is it...
"Hmm? Main body, Transcription Seal!"
The Shadow Clone made a soft sound of surprise and slightly increased the distance between himself and Nagato.
Yamanaka Kei frowned slightly, signaling to continue.
After a thorough check.
The result was that Nagato, Yahiko, and Konan all had Transcription Seals on them!
The other members showed no abnormalities.
In the original story, Madara Uchiha used the Transcription Seal to seal Izanagi into his right eye, delaying its activation.
Itachi Uchiha also used this technique, leaving Amaterasu in Sasuke's eyes, and Kotoamatsukami in Naruto's.
It's unknown what kind of activation conditions are set for the Transcription Seal.
Nor is it known what kind of technique is sealed within.
Without unraveling this thing.
Yamanaka Kei would hesitate even to brainwash the three and bring them back to Konoha.
After all, if the Transcription Seal contained something like the Summoning Technique: Outer Path Demonic Statue or Super Almighty Pull, and it met the activation conditions as soon as they arrived in Konoha.
It's estimated that before the Third Shinobi World War even started, Konoha would be blown up first!
As for killing the three of them...
plplplpl~~
While Yamanaka Kei was pondering, the starving Samehada, like a caterpillar, wriggled over to Nagato.
Its foot-long tongue constantly licked the other's head.
Its body, covered in spikes, seemed to have transformed into soft fluff, clinging tightly to him.
A large amount of Chakra surged from Nagato's body.
The unconscious boy's body trembled uncontrollably due to the excessive loss of Chakra.
Whoosh~ Bang~!
The sound of a flare exploding came from above Yamanaka Kei's head.
Swish~
With spatial fluctuations.
The Second Shadow Clone, who had been left outside to keep watch, appeared beside Samehada with an unpleasant expression.
He threw the ninja in his hand, who was clearly under a Genjutsu, in front of Yamanaka Kei.
"White Zetsu?"
Yamanaka Kei glanced at the interface of the guy in front of him and tossed a Sealing Scroll to the Shadow Clone.
Listening to the sharp alarm sound echoing throughout the Rain Ninja Village, he took out a storage tube from his pocket and smeared a little on his fingertip.
A huge cloud of Chakra smoke rose, and a Clam, several sizes smaller than a mirage, appeared in the room.
Seeing this, the Shadow Clone immediately threw the bodies of Yahiko, Nagato, and Konan into the Clam's open shell.
"Don't let them die for now."
After instructing the Summoning Beast.
Yamanaka Kei released the Summoning Technique, sending it back to the Clam Clan's habitat.
Sensing the rapidly approaching figures outside the building, he grabbed the large blade Samehada from the ground!
Although he hadn't figured out what Black Zetsu was trying to do.
But since he was already here!
If he didn't take some local specialties back with him, wouldn't he have come for nothing!
