Naruto's Review : First Viewer is Senju Tobirama?

"Jiraiya-sensei, are you underestimating me?"

Since using the Rinnegan to summon the Gedo Statue, when has Nagato ever been looked down upon like this?

Even Uchiha Madara (Obito) didn't dare raise his voice in front of him.

A mere village like Konoha… does he think this body of the Deva Path Nagato puppet is a pushover?

"You're the one underestimating the Konoha ninjas."

Shaking his head, Jiraiya led the Deva Path Nagato downstairs, walking as he spoke: "We know you're strong with the Rinnegan, and you don't only have this one puppet. But can you guess something? Since we know you can control the puppets, do you think we might leave the village to look for your real body?"

Upon hearing this, Nagato, who was hiding not far from Konoha, immediately said to Konan beside him: "Konan, check if there are any Konoha ninjas around us."

"What's happening?"

As Konan spoke, she also tried her best to sense the surroundings.

This hiding place was carefully chosen by Konan—it was far from the main road but not too far from Konoha.

She had also placed many sensory paper tags around to ensure the safety of their hideout.

Now, she strengthened her connection with the paper tags around her, and soon she sensed that many ninjas wearing Konoha headbands had appeared in the area.

However, these ninjas had not yet discovered their exact hiding spot and hadn't formed an effective encirclement.

"It looks like I truly underestimated Konoha's ninjas."

Thanks to Jiraiya's words, Nagato understood what he meant.

Konoha knows a lot about your Akatsuki organization and you, Nagato. Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you're strong.

Of course, Jiraiya did this on purpose—to warn Nagato not to cause trouble in the village.

Now, it seems like the warning had some effect.

"Old man, let them all leave. Nagato just came to talk with me."

The Third Hokage looked deeply at Jiraiya and chose to trust him.

The Third Hokage waved his hand, and the ninjas hiding in the shadows immediately lowered their guard, returning to their usual tasks.

As for the Third Hokage himself, he continued puffing on his pipe while slowly heading home.

"Let's go."

"...Alright."

Jiraiya knew that Nagato might be in a hurry, so both of them walked at a quick pace. It didn't take long for them to leave the village and reach a spot not far from where Nagato was hiding.

"Alright, I think you don't want me to know where you're hiding, so I'll leave you here."

While speaking, Jiraiya waved to Minato and Kushina, who were standing on a tree, signaling them not to be so tense.

Nagato glanced at Minato and Kushina before nodding.

Nagato didn't want Jiraiya to see his current, frail form, nor did he want him to meet Konan.

Nagato knew that although Konan seemed cold on the outside, she was actually a young girl with a lot of emotions on the inside.

Even if they met, it wouldn't really change anything, so why cause more trouble?

"Alright, when Yahiko is revived, I'll send someone to notify you in the Hidden Rain Village."

"Alright, then it's up to you, Jiraiya-sensei."

"Haha, I'm your teacher, don't worry about bothering me."

Jiraiya laughed heartily, patting Nagato on the shoulder before starting to head back.

Minato and the others saw this and knew that no conflict would happen, so they began signaling the others to return to Konoha.

"Don't worry, sensei, I won't let anyone disturb Yahiko's resurrection."

Even though Jiraiya had already said that no reward was necessary, Nagato still had his own concerns.

After all, he and Jiraiya were on different sides, and he didn't want to take too much advantage of him. He didn't want to feel soft-hearted when the time came to make a move.

Given Konoha's current situation, in order to not owe Jiraiya too much and to avoid others interfering with Yahiko's resurrection, Nagato has already decided to target either the Hidden Cloud Village or the Hidden Stone Village.

As long as they take care of one of these villages, leaving them unable to interfere with Konoha, Konoha's size will make it easy to deal with the other one.

"Nagato, are you alright?"

"I'm fine, the Konoha ninjas have left."

"That's good. I thought you had a conflict with Jiraiya-sensei in Konoha."

"No, Jiraiya-sensei agreed to revive Yahiko without hesitation."

"Really? That's great! After Yahiko is revived, the three of us can be together again."

At that moment, Konan seemed to turn back into the smiling little girl she once was.

Seeing this, Nagato remained silent for a moment before speaking.

"Let's go, we're heading back to the Hidden Rain Village."

"Okay."

"Once we're back at the village, inform Zetsu. Tell it to keep a close eye on the Fourth Raikage and the Third Tsuchikage."

"Nagato, what are you planning?"

"This is something I must do to revive Yahiko."

"I understand."

They hurried back, and when they finally returned to the Hidden Rain Village, they realized that Zetsu, who had left the village some time ago, still hadn't come back.

"I wonder what Zetsu has been up to lately. It's either trying to get me to act on the Tailed Beast Capture plan early or just disappearing."

"Nagato, I think Zetsu has some hidden motives."

"It's fine. How many people in the organization don't have hidden agendas? As long as they can be used for my purposes, that's enough."

At this moment, what is Black Zetsu doing?

It is lurking in the Hidden Sand Village of the Land of Wind, keeping an eye on Gaara, the jinchuriki of the One-Tail.

Once it has completely figured out Gaara's movements, that's when it will move to capture the One-Tail jinchuriki.

However, its combat abilities are well known, and to successfully capture Gaara, it will definitely need help from someone else.

It has already picked its ally: Kisame Hoshigaki.

Originally, Obito would have been the best choice. Using Kamui, he could capture Gaara without anyone noticing.

But recently, Obito's behavior has made it impossible for Black Zetsu to control him.

The curse mark on Obito's heart is the last line of defense. Unless absolutely necessary, Black Zetsu doesn't want to completely fall out with him.

Therefore, within the Akatsuki organization, the only person who can help is Kisame Hoshigaki.

After all, Black Zetsu is a manifestation of Uchiha Madara's will, and for the Eye of the Moon plan to move forward, Kisame will likely not refuse to help.

"It's just that the old lady Chiyo is a bit of a problem. When it's time to capture the One-Tail jinchuriki, I'll have to find a way to get rid of her."

In order to quickly train Gaara to become the Kazekage, the current temporary leader of the Hidden Sand Village, Chiyo, has been sending Gaara to the Kazekage office building every day to assist her in reviewing documents.

It can be said that once Gaara turns fifteen next year, he will become the youngest Kage in history.

To avoid alerting anyone, Black Zetsu patiently continues to stay hidden.

Until twenty days later, the new batch of light screen videos arrives!
