Naruto: Starting with the Two Kamui

In order to impersonate this persona, Black Zetsu found Isshiki Otsutsuki and borrowed the chakra of the Ten-Tails, projecting the Sage of Six Paths' voice, appearance, and smile onto himself. Of course, the Rinnegan was just a projection, not the real thing!

But Black Zetsu's impersonation has truly reached the point of being indistinguishable from the real thing!

Let alone Nagato never having seen the Sage of Six Paths, even if he had, he might not have been able to tell the difference between the real and the fake!

Nagato's expression was filled with piety! He believed Lin Yu's words without a doubt, firmly believing that he was the reincarnation of the Sage of Six Paths, and that he must have been given some kind of mission to inherit the Sage's Rinnegan!

He had always regarded Lin Yu's words as a mission given by the Sage of Six Paths, and in his heart, he regarded Lin Yu as the messenger who guided him to fulfill the Sage's last will!

But now... the true Six Paths have appeared before me!

Nagato asked impatiently, "Sage...you just said I've grown. Could it be that the reason I couldn't see you before was because I hadn't grown enough?"

"That's right. I've been by your side witnessing your growth. When you have the power of all eight tailed beasts within you, you'll be able to see me... Now, the conditions are met. It's time for you to know the whole truth!"

"the truth??"

"Nagato... my reincarnation, you have been deceived by a thief for so long!"

"Deception?? Thief!? You mean... could it be..."

"That's the thief who calls himself Uchiha Yu!"

"what is going on?"

"He is not a representative of my will at all; he is just using my name to swindle and deceive!"

"How could this be... But he was the one who saved my life from Hanzo, gave me the Gedo Mazo, and taught me how to use the power of the Rinnegan!!"

"That was just him cleverly taking advantage of the opportunity. He was secretly watching everything and looking for the most opportune moment to appear. Otherwise, why would he have appeared so timely!"

Nagato shook her head desperately, refusing to believe it: "No, that's not how it is, Mr. Yu would never harm me!"

"Then why didn't he appear when your dearest friend Yahiko was murdered! He needed you to summon the Gedo Mazo to awaken the dormant potential within you! Everything you've experienced, including the pain, was part of his scheme!"

Boom!

Nagato stood there, stunned...

"Fine... words are no proof, I'll show you the whole truth!"

The Sage of Six Paths suddenly raised his hand... and with the sky as a backdrop, an incredibly grand image was revealed!

That was an illusion carefully constructed by Black Zetsu using the Ten-Tails' chakra!

In the illusion... Lin Yu is a complete schemer!

The transitions and connections are seamless, and even the details are depicted perfectly!

Even those who know Lin Yu would likely question him after seeing this video... not to mention, Nagato has already been given the wrong impression by Black Zetsu!

Nagato stared straight up at the sky, his eyes fixed on the image above, his fists clenched tightly, cold sweat streaming down his face.

End of video...

Nagato stood there for a long time, then suddenly covered his chest with his hand.

"Huff, huff, huff, huff...!" He gasped for breath, his pain mirroring that of Yahiko dying before his eyes years ago: "How could this be? The benefactor I've trusted and worshipped for ten years... is actually the one who started all this! He used me!?"

The immortal said earnestly, "My reincarnation, suffering is an inevitable part of human growth. This is an invaluable experience for you, which will make your heart as firm as a rock. Now that you have realized the truth, it is not too late to turn back..."

Nagato looked at the immortal before him, a powerful being whose every move could change the very fabric of the world... something even Lin Yu couldn't do!

In Nagato's eyes, his identity was beyond question!

Nagato snapped out of her daze, her eyes now completely changed: "Sage, thank you for telling me everything... Please tell me, what should I do!"

Chapter 490 Cause and Effect!

Madara has already conveyed the news that the Nine-Tails was in control at the masquerade ball...

But they waited in vain for Nagato's response.

Madara stared at the flickering candlelight before him: "This shouldn't be... Akatsuki hasn't made a move yet. What is that Nagato kid thinking?"

Kabuto asked, "Lord Madara, what should we do if Nagato doesn't respond soon?"

After pondering for a moment, Madara said, "Several months have passed since my battle with Obito. The longer it drags on, the greater the chance that Obito will wake up. Let's wait three more days. If Nagato still hasn't made any move, we'll take the initiative and attack..."

Kabuto adjusted his glasses: "Nagato possesses your eyes and has the power of eight tailed beasts sealed within him. To put it bluntly, even you would have a hard time defeating Nagato right now!"

"Hmph, there are countless ways to subdue a person. Since I dared to bestow the Rinnegan upon Nagato, I must have left a backup plan. If he obediently listens, that's fine, but if he goes against me, he will know what despair is!"

Madara said coldly, clenching his fist as if he held the entire world in his hands: "In this ninja world, there is nothing that can exceed my control, Uchiha Madara!"

Feathered Emperor City.

Nadeshiko Saori is handling official business.

During Lin Yu's absence, she handled all the major affairs of the Ninja Kingdom.

The Land of Iron kept the events in the Nether Valley a closely guarded secret, and only a very few people in the ninja world knew about them.

Therefore, when people ask about the whereabouts of the Feather Emperor, Saori always casually says that the Feather Emperor is busy outside.

In fact, Saori was very anxious. She knew some inside information, including the fact that Yuki was lost.

Saori put down her pen, her mind still unsettled: "Emperor Yu has not returned to the country for half a year because of the princess's matter. No matter how you look at it... it's been too long."

Boom boom boom!

A knock came at the door.

Saori straightened her appearance and said in a deep voice, "Come in!"

The door opened, and Kurenai Yuhi walked in.

Since Hong and Lin Yu returned from their trip, she has come over every few days, but we never see her. Recently, she has been coming even more frequently.

They were all asking the same question: "Has the Feather Emperor... still not returned?"

Saori was already used to it: "He hasn't come back. I already told you, I'll let you know when the Feather Emperor returns!"

In the past, the Red Cross would have said an apology with a somber look in their eyes, then closed the door and left, but this time they did not.

She closed the door, strode over, and actually did a dogeza (a traditional Chinese kowtow) in front of Saori!

Saori stood up, frowning, and said, "What are you doing!"

Hong raised her head, her eyes trembling: "Lady Saori, please tell me! What happened to Lord Feather Emperor!"

Saori said, "Didn't I say I was busy outside?"

Hong said, "We're both women, so just tell me the truth!"

This time, she was determined to get to the bottom of things.

“Sigh…” Saori sighed. She was also anxious and under a lot of pressure. In the end, she softened and told him what she knew.

Hong said anxiously, "What? The Feather Emperor's daughter has gone missing! I only found out now! What should we do? He must be extremely worried. Is there anything we can do to help?"

Saori said, "Even Lord Yuhuang can't do anything about this, so what can we do? Not causing trouble for Lord Yuhuang is already helping..."

With her hands clasped to her chest and her eyes filled with worry, she said, "My heart has been beating very fast these past few days. I have a feeling that something bad is about to happen!"

Saori paused, then said, "Aren't you being overly pessimistic...?"

That evening, Saori returned to her residence.

The maid reported, "Lady Saori, a letter from the King has been delivered!"

Saori dismantles her beliefs.

The message reads: "My dear minister, our country's fortune teller has recently passed away. Her last divination before her death indicated that a major upheaval will occur in the ninja world within three days. You are away, so please be wise and protect yourself!"

Saori crumpled the letter paper, her beautiful eyes filled with seriousness!

The prophecies made by the fortune teller have never failed to come true!

Although the divination did not explicitly mention that the Ninja Country would be the site of the upheaval, the current ninja world is centered around the Ninja Country, so if there is a major upheaval, the Ninja Country will inevitably be involved.

She didn't have time to rest and hurried outside.

"Lord Saori!"

I will not be sleeping at home tonight!

Saori returned to her office and, in the name of the Feather Emperor, sent secret messages to all the cities, large and small, under the Dark Shadow Kingdom, ordering all the lords to gather in Feather Emperor City immediately, but not to make a big fuss, so as not to cause unnecessary panic!

In Amegakure, a torrential downpour made the daytime feel as oppressive and heavy as night.

Nagato stood in the rain, gazing into the distance, lost in thought.

A few days ago, he saw the true form of the Sage of Six Paths!

The immortal told him a shocking truth and gave him guidance on the path he should take in the future.

The revelation overturned his worldview, outlook on life, and values ​​that he had established over the past decade!

He desperately hoped... to meet with the Six Paths and clarify the truth—that this was just a dream!

He hoped that when he woke up, someone would tell him that Mr. Yu had delivered the Nine-Tailed Fox to his door and would help him achieve his next goal!

The Infinite Tsukuyomi creates a world where there are no barriers or conflicts between people, where they live in a beautiful dream from which they will never wake up... Is this truly the ideal that the Sage of Six Paths wanted to achieve?

Is this really... the only viable way to break the chain of hatred?

Is this the mission bestowed upon him by the reincarnation of the Sage of Six Paths, with the Rinnegan reappearing within him?

To be honest, he hadn't recovered from the shock yet!

His fists were clenched tightly.

“Nagato…do as you wish. Your dream is my dream. No matter what the future holds, I will stand by your side and be your support. I believe…Yahiko thinks so too.”

Konan walked out from the rain and stood behind Nagato.

Regardless of whether the path guided by the immortal is correct or not, the only thing that is certain is that Mr. Yu, no, Uchiha Yu, used and deceived me... I no longer need to have any concerns!

I will seize the future with my own hands!

I will use these divinely bestowed Rinnegan eyes to see everything clearly!

I will unite all the tailed beasts, become the Jinchūriki of the Ten-Tails, and obtain the power to change everything!

Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish! Swish!
