Traveling through Nagato, from conquering Konan to dominating the ninja world

The supplementary figure, black hair shows uniqueness! Five hearts, it turns out that my heart is not pierced by a stick!

“Descendants of the Uzumaki clan? You too?” The woman’s red eyes trembled with shock.

However, what shocked her the most was not that the man sitting opposite her was from the same Uzumaki clan as her, but... he could speak of his identity as a member of the Uzumaki clan so calmly, and even say it proudly!

In her opinion, this is unimaginable...

After the destruction of the Whirlpool Country, the Uzumaki clan was almost extinct, and the survivors wandered around the ninja world, hiding their identities and living cautiously, fearing that others would know that they had the blood of this clan...

"Ma'am, can you tell me your name?"

The woman pursed her lips and timidly said her name under the encouraging gaze of the man opposite her.

"Luxury fragrance..."

My Lady Shexiang! Nagato exclaimed in his heart.

"Shexiang, what a nice name... By the way, my name is Nagato. Our last names are not Uzumaki, but we have the same red hair, which is proof that we have pure Uzumaki blood in our bodies~!"

Same, red hair?

These words, like a gust of warm wind, blew into Shexiang's heart, touching her numb soul after suffering trauma.

"Lord Nagato, are you bringing me here because we are of the same clan?"

Nagato smiled slightly and still called Shexiang, who was only a few years older than him, "Madam".

"Ma'am, if I say no, it will only make you more uneasy. So I say, half and half."

Under Shexiang's anxious gaze, Nagato pursed his lips and said, "Drink some water before it gets cold."

"Oh! Okay, okay..." She Xiang picked up the water cup in front of her and took a sip.

The chapped lips were irrigated by the warmth of the water. In the grooves of the dead skin and where the blood scabs were stuck, there came bursts of heat, and along with the heat came a hint of sweetness and fishiness, which was the smell of blood.

It was this hint of sweetness that awakened Shexiang's life instinct. As a human being, she was still alive... She drank it with gulps. The clearness of the water diluted the sweetness and turned into the source of life that went through her throat. The warmth from her stomach and spleen spread to her whole body.

She seemed to be truly alive, and tears welled up in her eyes.

"Okay, can you give me another drink?"

Nagato smiled, "Of course."

Xiaonan came forward and poured her a cup of warm water.

Shexiang drank again.

Seeing this scene, Samyi felt mixed emotions.

She really couldn't imagine that the person she once regarded as an evil ghost also had such an approachable, caring and considerate side...

I seem to have misunderstood him, Sam thought.

Shexiang put down the water cup, wiped away her tears, and the uneasiness in her eyes was gone.

She looked at Nagato and said with respect, "Sir Nagato, you said half of it is because we are of the same clan, but what is the other half?"

Nagato said bluntly: "For the future of our village."

She Xiang was stunned for a moment: "Village? You mean... the Hidden Uzushio Village in the former Whirlpool Country?"

Nagato shook his head slightly: "No, the Uzushiogakure Village has been destroyed. I am talking about the Hidden Rain Village."

She Xiang asked in surprise: "Yuyin... Is this the Land of Rain? Are you from Hanzo of the Salamander?"

At this time, Konan said at the right time: "No, the era of Rain Village Hanzo is over. And the person who destroyed Hanzo and led the Rain Village is the one sitting in front of you, Nagato!"

"What...!?" Shexiang looked at Nagato in disbelief. "You... you defeated the Salamander Hanzo who made the Kusagakure Village tremble with fear? And you became the leader of the Rain Village!?"

Nagato said calmly, "I want to build the Hidden Rain Village into a village that can rival the five great ninja villages, no, a village that surpasses the five great ninja villages. Obviously, my own strength is not enough."

"To do this, I will train a large number of excellent ninjas."

"Ma'am, I'll just say it straight."

"I, Nagato, and the Hidden Rain Village that I lead, are willing to be a strong support for you and your unborn child!"

"Also, I want to train your child to be an excellent ninja!"

"Eh???" Shexiang asked in surprise: "Ninja... Lord Nagato, do you think that Karin can become a ninja?"

Samui was surprised: "Karin? This is a girl's name. Did you know that you are pregnant with a girl?"

She Xiang stroked her belly and nodded gently: "Yeah. I can sense that she is a girl..."

Nagato smiled and said, "Madam, I guarantee that Karin will be fine. If you are willing to let her become a ninja, I will accept her as my apprentice in the future and personally guide her."

"Of course... the decision is in your hands, madam. This is not forced. If you don't want her to become a ninja, she can still live in the Hidden Rain Village. After all, we are of the same blood here. Even if we break bones, we are still connected by tendons."

This was Nagato's true feelings. Having never felt the warmth of family love since childhood, he longed for... the blood bond of his family more than most people.

His sincere words made She Xiang even more flattered.

In her mind, ninjas have always been synonymous with violence and power...but the appearance of Nagato overturned the impression of ninjas in her mind.

If... it's Mr. Nagato, such an approachable and gentle ninja, I am willing to entrust Karin's future to him!

Shexiang said, "Nagato-sama, what are you talking about? It is a blessing for us mother and daughter to have Karin follow you! Let's do as you wish!"

Nagato stood up and said, "Well, ma'am. From today on, this house will be your home. In addition, all your living expenses in the Hidden Rain Village will be covered by the village!"

"Eh???" After hearing this, She Xiang's face suddenly changed: "No way!! This is absolutely not possible, Lord Nagato, you took me in and were willing to give my unborn child a way out, how can I eat and drink for free!!! Lord Nagato!! Please take back your decision just for this one point!"

Nagato smiled and said, "Madam, I have no other intentions. There are not many surviving members of the clan. I think that among the survivors of the Uzumaki clan, I am still capable of taking on important responsibilities."

"With great power comes great responsibility, so let's do our best!"

"Lord Nagato..." Shexiang's eyes filled with tears again, "I am pregnant now and cannot work, so I am willing to accept the village's assistance before the baby is born."

"But, after the baby is born, please let me be self-reliant! If nothing else, just consider it as a way for me to fulfill my mission as a mother and set an example for my children!"

Having said that, Nagato couldn't insist any longer.

"Well, please rest assured and take care of your pregnancy. I will come to visit you often..."
