"Sure enough, my eyes are your work." Seeing Obito's figure, Nagato sighed and at the same time was not surprised.
"Did you see the Stone Tablet of the Uchiha clan?" Obito didn't care, and his expression was indifferent. "But that won't change your destiny."
"Then give me your eyes!"
With that said, he attacked directly!
Nagato frowned, stepped back, and said: "Although I don't know who you are, I will call you Uchiha Madara..."
"Uchiha Madara, you are also a person who works for peace."
"Have you considered the goals of the new Akatsuki?"
"New Akatsuki?" Obito frowned slightly. 'Had they created a new organization?'
"That's right, I, Konan, Itachi, Tsunade... We have formed a new Akatsuki organization!" Nagato said seriously. "We have set a new goal for peace."
"The conflicts in the shinobi world come from the unfair distribution of resources, so..." He slowly explained Natsuo's theory at that moment.
And then he summed it up in one sentence.
"In short, if we strive to expand our territories, improve the productivity of society and obtain more resources, there will be enough for everyone, and the days of hunger and suffering will come to an end." Nagato said seriously.
Of course, there will probably also be exploitation. But as long as the distribution of resources was fair, no one would go hungry or be homeless on the streets.
And there would be no armed conflicts. With the entire shinobi world united and the Western Continent as the adversary, there would be no major internal wars.
Perhaps there would be infighting, but compared to the present, it would definitely be a path to perfect peace.
Obito was silent, he really didn't expect Nagato to have discovered a new continent, much less have any ideas about conquering outer space.
How ambitious... too ambitious!
But...
"Sorry, my goal has never changed!" Obito kept his expression cold and impassive. "The world I want to create can only be realized with the Infinite Tsukuyomi."
There is no Rin on another continent, nor in outer space. What Obito wants is a peaceful world with Rin. Even if the Infinite Tsukuyomi is an illusory peace, it is an illusory peace with Rin!
"Then let me see the power of Uchiha Madara!" Nagato took a deep breath with a solemn expression.
"Good." Obito nodded slightly. "Let's finish this quickly."
"I picked a time when Natsuo wasn't around to confront you!"
...
Natsuo was happily ravaging Samui, meanwhile Yugito was immobilized by the seals, and watched them furiously, unable to look away as they had sex in front of her.
However, after leaving the Samui residence, he encountered Nagato who was covered in blood and was being treated by Tsunade.
His eyes had even been gouged out!
"It was Madara Uchiha who did it... but I don't think it's really him." Nagato said in a weak voice, blood gushing from his eye sockets. But still, he was perceptive enough to notice Natsuo's presence immediately.
"My Rinnegan was really a trap set by him!"
"He acted very quickly." Natsuo commented.
Konoha was huge.
Even Natsuo couldn't expand his perception to be aware of everything that was happening in Konoha all the time.
The place where Nagato landed was quite far from the Uchiha clan area, so the barriers and seals set up to protect his family were not activated.
"How could he beat you?" Natsuo asked curiously. "Your body has already recovered, and without summoning the Demonic Statue, you shouldn't have had much pressure."
Although Obito was strong, that was mainly due to his unique abilities granted to him by his Mangekyo.
With his Kamui ability, Obito had a certain advantage in any fight, but that was it. He only had one Mangekyo and couldn't even use the Susanoo.
If Nagato tries his best and uses the Rinnegan no matter the cost, he could definitely show the pinnacle of strength in the shinobi world.
As a result, Obito easily defeated Nagato when he was near Konoha, without causing enough of a stir to alert his perception.
"They already had a plan!" Nagato gritted his teeth. "That person seems to have put some kind of restriction on me, something I didn't notice, which surprised me and left me vulnerable, restricting my movements..."
Natsuo understood immediately upon hearing that.
Yes, this is quite normal.
Nagato's eyes were given by Uchiha Madara, and as an existence that came out of the Sengoku period, how could it be possible to only pin all hopes on its own strength?
With Obito, he had placed a cursed seal on his heart, allowing Madara to take his life at any time. Naturally, he wouldn't allow himself to be negligent towards Nagato either.
After all, that was the Rinnegan. How could he not have considered the possibility of Nagato rebelling by using the Rinnegan?
Under a sneak attack, it is normal to succeed with one move.
Fortunately, Nagato was strong enough on his own, and Obito was also worried about causing a ruckus that might attract Natsuo.
Just took away Nagato's Rinnegan and retreated decisively.
"Huh." Tsunade withdrew his hand and let out a long breath.
"The treatment is over, but I can't get your eyes back, I suggest you consider transplanting a pair of eyes..."
The eyes were the most important sensory organs for humans and could easily affect a shinobi's strength.
"A transplant..." Nagato reflected briefly.
Losing his eyes has a great impact on Nagato's strength, not only losing the unique abilities of the Rinnegan but also losing his sight.
However, eye transplantation would only be palliative. Any transplant involves a certain degree of rejection and incompatibility. Therefore, the success rate to obtain the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan increases between blood brothers.
But...
"There's no need." Natsuo decided to make it up to Nagato, because he was actually waiting for his eyes to be stolen. He then placed his hand on Nagato's eye sockets.
An hour later...
Nagato slowly opened his eyes.
"What is this?" Tsunade asked in amazement. "Medical ninjutsu?"
"More or less." Natsuo shrugged his shoulders.
Nagato was also surprised as he experimented with his new eyes. Although he had lost the powerful Rinnegan, his new eyes had an advantage, they didn't constantly consume his chakra!
The powerful physique of the Uzumaki Clan was back.
Although he lost the Rinnegan, he still has a Kage level if he only relies on his huge Chakra. And he can also learn the sealing technique of the Uzumaki clan. Even at the Kage-level, Nagato is still a strong player!
"Thank you, Natsuo..." Nagato said after a moment of silence.
"You're welcome, I did it for Konan." Natsuo waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "Let her make it up to me tonight."
Konan blushed upon hearing that, and Nagato could only smile wryly.
Meanwhile, at the Akatsuki base...
Obito, who had transplanted a Rinnegan, was standing on one of the fingers of the Demonic Statue.
"Good, I have recovered the Rinnegan; now we can proceed with the sealing." Obito said in a deep voice.
Deidara next to him looked at Obito with emotion in his eyes. Rinnegan has appeared, apparently the original boss was defeated...
Even a silent defeat!
Kisame didn't take it seriously, he knew from the beginning that Obito was Akatsuki's mastermind behind the scenes.
Although he didn't understand why Nagato, with the powerful Rinnegan, could be defeated by Obito.
"Let's begin." Obito sighed. "It's just the four of us, so it's going to take a long time."
Everyone nodded slightly and took out Killer Bee silently.
…
After regaining his vision, Nagato along with Itachi began to mobilize all the resources the new Akatsuki organization had access to and began collecting information on all aspects of the shinobi world.
They even began simulating military strategies, evaluating how they could take control of the shinobi world with the lowest possible cost.
On the other hand, Natsuo stopped paying attention to what they were doing. Peace or war in the shinobi world were irrelevant to him. What mattered to him was...
"The resurrection technique has finally been completed..."
"I'm going to try it right now". With that said, Natsuo headed directly to Mikoto's room.
…
During this time, Natsuo had manipulated Mikoto's DNA samples to regress her age until she regained her peak physical form and included fragments of both the Senju and Uzumaki bloodlines in her genetic code. That's why when Natsuo summoned her again using Impure World Reincarnation she seemed to be around 18 years old again.
Natsuo held Mikoto's palm tightly and a steady flow of Chakra poured into her.
Mikoto kept her eyes closed, and then she began to feel the warm chakra flowing through her body, enveloping her in a pleasant sensation of warmth. It was as if her entire being was immersed in a pleasant wave of comfort, making her want to lie down on the floor and relax fully, letting out a contented sigh.
Her skin that was similar to that of cracked porcelain, gradually healed. The steam filled the air and spread slowly.
Finally...
Her skin regained its soft and elastic tone of yesteryear.
Natsuo slowly removed his hand, smiling. "How about it? Do you notice any difference?"
Mikoto opened her eyes and stared at her skin, now soft and radiant. Her body felt full of vitality, she felt that her body was much stronger than when she was alive.
"Am I really alive now?" Mikoto looked at her arm, feeling the strong beating of her heart and her abundant vitality...
She couldn't hold back her tears and threw herself into Natsuo's arms, tears welling up in her eyes. "Thank you, Natsuo! Thank you very much!"
Natsuo was a little confused at first, in his impression, Mikoto has always considered Itachi and Sasuke the most important, if he hadn't guaranteed their safety, maybe she wouldn't even be willing to resurrect, let alone get close to him.
So how did she come to feel so moved?
It wasn't until he heard Mikoto's description of the feeling of loneliness, coldness, and darkness she felt while being revived by the Impure World Reincarnation that Natsuo was able to understand her outburst.
While Mikoto experienced the feeling of being alive again, they both stood hugging each other in silence.
'Now I understand why Uchiha Madara in the Naruto Series was so excited after being revived, he even let himself get hit a few times, causing some injuries... he probably felt something similar, right?'
Natsuo lightly squeezed Mikoto in his embrace and with an apologetic expression on his face said: "I'm sorry for making you endure this kind of suffering..."
"Don't worry. It was a necessary sacrifice." Mikoto shook his head. Although the experience of being revived by the Impure World Reincarnation technique was not pleasant, it was better than staying in the Pure Land forever.
Natsuo then proceeded to explain to her that he had given her part of the Senju and Uzumaki lineage, and although it is impossible for her to awaken the Kekkei Genkai of said clans, those lineages had still greatly strengthened her body.
After Mikoto calmed her emotions, Natsuo took her to meet the rest of the family.
"She really has come back to life!"
"Revived? Natsuo, didn't you have to pay a price for this?"
"There is such a thing..."
"Mom!"
Everyone in Uchiha looked at Mikoto in shock. Sasuke and Itachi looked excited and had tears in their eyes. Pakura and Kushina showed complicated expressions, lost in thought.
On the other hand, Tsunade and the others were completely shocked and disbelieving, staring at Mikoto as if they were under a genjutsu.
Mikoto was blushing from their looks, but she didn't let go of Natsuo's hand.
"Mikoto has come back to life. Pakura, Kushina, shouldn't you consider it?" Natsuo proposed with a smile.
Pakura seemed to be reflecting.
Kushina hesitated for a moment, but then said determinedly, "No, I won't give up."
Even though they were also in the state of being revived by the Impure World Reincarnation technique and experienced the restlessness that came with being dead, as high-level shinobi they could still endure it.
They continued to maintain their convictions.
Meanwhile...
"Natsuo, are you sure that your resurrection has no side effects?" Nagato asked with a frown. "Are you sure it hasn't affected your body?"
Konan also looked at Natsuo anxiously. "Yes, Natsuo, check it carefully!"
The Rinnegan's Samsara of Heavenly Life Technique can revive people. But even when Yahiko's body was present the entire time at the Akatsuki base, none of them attempted to revive him.
This is because this technique requires a great sacrifice: the life of the user!
Nagato might be willing, but both he and Konan knew that Yahiko would not accept that outcome.
"I've spent a lot of chakra." Natsuo said with a shrug. "Do not think that I have not lost anything; my consumption has been significant."
"If we calculate it, it was more tiring than fighting you ten times!"
After Natsuo improved the resurrection technique, eliminating the cost of life, it still took a huge amount of chakra to maintain it.
Just to revive Mikoto this time, Natsuo used 40% of his total chakra. Even Tailed Beasts would not have the amount of chakra needed to perform the technique. Well, maybe the Nine Tails can do it.
And it must be taken into account that Natsuo also used natural energy, one could say that the technique incorporated senjutsu during its execution.
But no matter how heartbreaking the cost, chakra is still a regenerative energy.
