Shinobi Exam: First Question, Why Was Akatsuki Destroyed?

"This ..."

Uchiha Itachi was suddenly questioned. Uchiha Obito was indeed a nuisance that couldn't be ignored. Moreover, he had to consider Konoha's strength.

Itachi slowly raised his head and looked directly at Uzumaki Nagato. He wanted to know what Uzumaki Nagato was going to say.

The deep lines make his expression look as if he was weeping or grinning, which was bizarre.

"5 hours, it's a bit rushed, but you have the option to take a portion of the Uchiha clan with you and break out of Konoha."

"Leaving the village? That's impossible!"

Uchiha Itachi was shocked by Nagato's words. He never thought about this path.

After all, the village wouldn't tolerate the Uchiha clan leaving the village. And, once the Uchiha clan was out of the village, would they come back to retaliate against Konoha?

"It won't work."

Uchiha Itachi refused without thinking, but Uzumaki Nagato's next words left him a bit more tempted.

"It's not leaving the village but faking death!"

"Aren't you going back to kill Danzō in order to pursue a change in the Uchiha clan's fate? Then why don't you be more direct?"

Uzumaki Nagato ripped right through Uchiha Itachi's pretense. He didn't like guys like Uchiha Itachi, who did bad things but still pretended to be a gentleman.

"The reason behind Uchiha's extermination isn't as simple as you think. In addition to Konoha, Obito, Madara, and Zetsu, there are other factors."

"What are you trying to say?"

At this moment, Itachi's mind was already a bit chaotic. He found Uzumaki Nagato had controlled his pace.

"How many people and how many shinobi were there when the Uchiha clan perished?"

"Seven hundred and eighty-six people, four hundred and forty-four shinobi."

Without hesitation, Uchiha Itachi gave him the answer.

"Sure enough, for the Uchiha clan to be able to become Konoha's security force, they are a force to be reckoned with in their own right."

Nagato reached out and pulled out a blank scroll, and spread it on the ground. He pressed it down with both hands, continuously injecting chakra into the scroll.

Soon, the white scroll was covered with dense jutsu text.

He rolled the scroll up and tossed it to Uchiha Itachi. Looking at Uchiha's puzzled look, Uzumaki Nagato explained, "There's a Shinra Tensei sealed in it with just enough power to destroy the entire Uchiha clan's land."

Bang!

Uzumaki Nagato summoned another scroll and threw it to Uchiha Itachi.

These were all the corpses he had collected over the years, originally stockpiled to replace the six Pains, and now, they were just enough for Uchiha Itachi to create an illusion.

"This is?"

" Five hundred corpses, I think that's enough for you."

After everything was done, Uzumaki Nagato had an intense light in his eyes. He looked at the somewhat bewildered Uchiha Itachi and smiled faintly.

'Spreading the pain, this is the start!'

He thought that his first student would be Uzumaki Naruto or Deidara, but he didn't expect it to be Uchiha Itachi.

His plans couldn't catch up with the changes, but who made Uchiha Itachi this valuable?!

Nagato knew that change in the shinobi world would require not only Naruto as the mouthpiece but also the baptism of war.

Right now, Akatsuki didn't have a shortage in high-end combat power. But the top, middle, and lower-end were nearly non-existent. Simply making it impossible to launch an 'all-out-war' on the shinobi world.

He couldn't overthrow the Daimyō of each country if he were unable to spread the 'war' throughout the shinobi world.

If those Daimyō didn't fall, then a shinobi would always be used as a tool for violence in the hands of those few.

Just when Nagato was worried about the urgent shortage of Akatsuki personnel, Uchiha Itachi suddenly came with his exclusive reward.

This solved his immediate problem!

This exclusive reward, which could change the past and influence reality, was going to be used to kill Shimura Danzō. In Nagato's view, this was too wasteful.

It should be used to save the Uchiha clan!

The Uchiha clan was crazy and powerful. So, as long as he brainwashed them through pyramid schemes ... no ... spreading the 'pain', and indoctrinating them with his good ideas, he could make them fight for peace in the shinobi world.

This Uchiha clan could be his soldiers!

Who in the shinobi world would dare stop them from spreading the pain?

Most of them have three tomoe eyes. If anyone stopped them, Mangekyō would come out. If they tried it again, Eternal Mangekyō!

And, the scariest part was that they were all-natural Illusion Technique users.

Illusion Technique, in Nagato's eyes, was a better teaching tool than online courses!

Time was infinitely prolonged, and brainwashing teaching could be repeated indefinitely. If they didn't study well, they wouldn't be able to get out of the Illusion Technique...

Time effective and cost-effective, with great results!

The more Nagato thought about it, the more excited he was. If he hadn't been incapable of using the Illusion Technique, he would have simply used a worldwide Illusion Technique to pass the doctrine to everyone!

With a single thought about the Uchiha clan, he was truly a genius and a madman.

Nagato believed that he had the ability and confidence to 'educate' them well.

Allowing them to dedicate their lives for true peace in the shinobi world!

Thinking of this, Uzumaki Nagato didn't hide his intention in the slightest.

"Since you have entrusted Uchiha Sasuke to Akatsuki, why don't you trust Akatsuki one more time?"

"No matter what kind of sins your Uchiha clan has, those unenlightened children shouldn't have to suffer."

"If you can get them to come to Amegakure, I can shelter the Uchiha clan. But of course, I will use their power."

"When the peace of the Shinobi world is truly achieved, the Uchiha clan will be the greatest contributors to the Shinobi world, and their merits will far exceed mine. And you, Uchiha Itachi, as the one who started the great change, will also become a legend!"

"Think about it. What would Uchiha Sasuke think of you at that time?"

After listening to Uzumaki Nagato's impassioned speech, Uchiha Itachi was expressionless. He didn't expect that the leader's words would be as good as Uzumaki Naruto's!

Surprisingly, he was genuinely somewhat impressed.

It wasn't because he would become a legend. He didn't care about his reputation, but he cared about the reputation of the Uchiha clan, and....

How Sasuke would see him when that time came.

Glancing at Sasuke in Uzumaki Nagato's arms, Itachi had a hint of reluctance in his eyes. Then without a word, he put the scroll away and went through the glowing door on the side.

As Uchiha Itachi disappeared into the door, the glowing door slowly dissipated.

Uzumaki Nagato saw this scene, and the corners of his mouth slightly rose.

Suddenly, his expression moved. Someone had invaded Amegakure!

In the perception of Rainmaker Jutsu, a figure with a strong chakra was leaping through Amegakure.

　　...

"Someone's coming!"

Uzumaki Karin moved and looked in one direction. Although she couldn't see it, there was an amazing figure with chakra running towards the upper levels.

As if noticing the movement over here, the figure also paused for a moment and then moved forward.

The other party disappeared from perception before Uzumaki Karin withdrew her gaze.

That man's chakra was very much like Uchiha Itachi and Uchiha Sasuke's, but the amount of chakra he had was much more than both of them.

At the same time, Uzumaki Nagato looked at the figure that appeared in front of him and was a little confused.

The other party was a middle-aged man with a firm face, covered in a black robe from the head down. At this moment, when he approached himself, his eyes rested on Uchiha Sasuke's body.

"Who are you?"

Uzumaki Nagato already had a suspicion in his mind, but he asked anyway.

Because he knew that, if he was right, another negotiation would follow!

A negotiation that was much more difficult than persuading Uchiha Itachi.

"Are you Akatsuki's leader -- Uzumaki Nagato?"

Although it was a question, it was indeed a definitive tone. He then threw out a note from under his black robe, which was somewhat yellowed and looked like it had been kept for some time.

Pain opened it, only to see the writing:

'Konoha year 59, on December 8th. Amegakure, the tallest building. Akatsuki leader, Uzumaki Nagato. He will tell you everything.'

After reading the note's content, Nagato quietly returned it and then looked at the middle-aged man in front of him.

"Your identity?"

"The patriarch of the Uchiha clan, father of Itachi and Sasuke..."

"Uchiha Fugaku!"

With that, he pulled off the robe on his body, revealing a clan emblem that looked like a ping pong paddle.

Then, under Nagato's gaze, his originally normal black eyes suddenly turned blood red.

Three tomoe...

Mangekyō …

Eternal Mangekyō ...

Rinnegan!!!!

"That!"

The moment he saw Rinnegan, Uzumaki Nagato was surprised!

He looked at the Rinnegan in Uchiha Fugaku's eyes in horror, confirming that he was not mistaken and that he wasn't hit with an Illusion Technique.

This familiar appearance, this familiar power.

"How is it possible ..."

"This is impossible!"

Fugaku's Rinnegan slowly disappeared as Nagato looked on.

Looking at Uzumaki Nagato, who was filled with shock, Uchiha Fugaku's voice slowly rang out:

"I'm saying that you shouldn't look down on any of the Uchiha clan's patriarchs."

"Now, can you tell me what this is all about? What's really going on?"
