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

Obito looked around and confirmed that only Nagato showed up. He fixed his gaze on the latter's fair face and said faintly, "You betrayed me, yet you still laughed at me, Nagato, do you think you are very humorous?"

Nagato looked innocent: "Mockery? Ah, ah, you mean the name 'Madara'? That's strange, haven't you always regarded yourself as Madara, the nemesis of Hashirama Senju..."

Obito sneered grimly: "Hehe, in fact, I should have realized it long ago. When you were deciding Jiraiya's life and death, and when you planned to attack the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki that night, those sharp questions you asked intentionally or unintentionally were all pointed..."

"Nagato, now that things have come to this, let's get this straight. When did you know that I was Uchiha Obito?"

"Ah hehe... You, you are actually, Uchiha Obito!?" Nagato took three steps back in shock, with an exaggerated expression on his face, but then, his exaggerated expression turned into a deep smile and he shrugged.

"Although, I want to say this, but it is indeed as you said, there is no need to sing Clouds Covering the Moon anymore."

"Well, since you asked sincerely, I will be merciful and tell you!"

"Do you remember when Kabuto visited the Kannabi Bridge and searched for Uchiha Obito's blood that was buried under a huge rock?"

Obito said: "Ah, how could I forget, that was the beginning of my murderous intention towards Orochimaru..."

Nagato said calmly: "The original intention of Kabuto to find Obito's blood was indeed to reincarnate Uchiha Obito. At that time, he didn't know that you were Obito."

Obito said coldly: "What a joke, Izanami has already been used, you tell me it's not coming for 'me'? The one who died in the Ninja War was just a last-place Chunin Uchiha Obito, how can he be so valuable!"

Nagato said: "That Izanagi is indeed not prepared for you, but to deal with other emergencies. Whether you believe it or not is up to you."

Obito's eyes darkened slightly: "And then?"

Nagato said: "The blood collection was successful. We immediately started to carry out a batch of Impure World Reincarnation on the samples of the deceased, including Uchiha Obito. Everyone succeeded, except Uchiha Obito, who failed..."

"Tell me, what does this mean?"

"Yes, it means that Uchiha Obito, the Uchiha boy who died during the Third Ninja World War, is still alive in this world..."

"Originally, Orochimaru was just thinking of collecting samples from the Uchiha clan in Konoha on a whim, and thought of Obito, a minor character with a low presence. Unexpectedly, he uncovered a shocking secret..."

"Then the question is, since Uchiha Obito is still alive, why doesn't he return to his hometown of Konoha as a hero? Where is he and what is he doing?"

"I can't help but feel curious. I am a very curious person. If I don't understand something, I must figure it out. Otherwise, I will be unable to sleep or eat."

"One night after that, I suddenly thought of a scene that made me feel horrified."

"When you appeared in front of me, Yahiko, and Konan as Madara, it was shortly after Obito's death."

"You were wearing a strange mask with only one pupil, hiding your true appearance. Uchiha Obito entrusted his left eye to his best friend Hatake Kakashi, and the eye you showed happened to be your right eye."

"The power of your right eye can allow objects to penetrate your body. Am I to understand that you survived when your body was crushed by the rocks because of your right eye?"

"Plus, the lair where you hid happened to be near the Kannabi Bridge. When you learned that Kabuto's purpose was to take Obito's blood, your violent reaction at that time made people even more suspicious."

"But what really convinced me that your identity was Uchiha Obito was a sentence you accidentally let slip."

"..." Obito raised his eyes.

"That's right. When you were explaining to me what a 'strong person' is as Madara, you said, 'If it's for the noble Moon Eye Project, for everyone's happiness! Even if the other party is my mentor, my brother or sister, my biological parents, or even a pregnant woman about to give birth! I can kill them without mercy!!!'"

"I have made a special trip to learn about Madara's life. Madara is a self-taught genius. All his skills were learned from the fierce battles of the Warring States Period! Where can I find a mentor?"

"So, I was completely convinced at that time! You are Uchiha Obito! You are cheating under the guise of Uchiha Madara!!!"

"How credible is the so-called ideal world that a person who even faked his identity drew for me? You simply want to use us!!"

"We are all born by our parents!! Why did you lie to me!!! Xiaonan and I clearly trusted you from the bottom of our hearts!!!"

Obito said in a low voice: "So, on the night of the Nine-Tails, you stood me up openly?"

Nagato said in a deep voice: "That's right, I won't offend anyone unless they offend me. If someone offends me, I will definitely offend them! You were the first to be unrighteous! You can't blame us for being ruthless!"

"I am Nagato Amegakure! I was born with the Rinnegan of the Six Paths Sage! My destiny is in my own hands!! It will never be in the hands of someone with ulterior motives like you!"

So that's what's going on...

Hum hum.

Obito's sinister voice rang out: "Since you are so honest, I will tell you too, Nagato."

"I am indeed not Madara. I am acting in accordance with Madara's will."

"Also, the Samsara Eye is not the eye opened by Yuyin Nagato, and you are not the reincarnation of the Six Paths Sage..."

"Because, your Rinnegan...was given to you by Madara!!!"

"What did you say?!" Nagato's pupils trembled violently!!!

While Nagato was standing there in shock, Obito appeared like lightning...!

Nagato, the moment you waver, this battle is over before it even begins!

I don't need a chess piece with too many ideas of his own!

Please give me back the Rinnegan that belongs to me!

"No wonder..." Nagato murmured, raising his eyes!

"Huh!?" Obito's pupils shrank suddenly, "How is this possible!!!"

Nagato's right eye suddenly turned into the 'Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan'!!!

"Thank you, I finally understand why, beneath my Samsara Eye, there is still the power of the 'Sharingan' hidden!"

"Crack...!!!" The lightning that burst out from Nagato's palm pierced through Obito's chest!

Obito was shocked and lost his voice: "This is... Kakashi's Chidori!? When did you...!!!!!!"

"What Chidori? This is called Raikiri."

In his right pupil, the eye technique of "Da Dou No Ben" has seen through the wood clone in front of him!

"Also, can you please stop showing off your clone skills in front of me?"

"Crack!!!" With lightning slashing across, half of Obito's body was ruthlessly torn into pieces, turning into rotten wood!

"Madara's Sharingan? I see. No wonder the Wood Clone that Hashirama Senju is so proud of can see through it..."

From within the shadow of the statue came Obito's dark voice.

“BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM…!!!”

Then, the earth collapsed...!!!

"Nagato, the stupidest thing you did was to appear in front of me with your real body..."

The tangled trees rose up violently, destroying the shrine in an instant. Nagato stood on the undulating ground, with hideous tree trunks crushing him from all directions...

Behind the swaying shadows of the trees, Obito's eyes were dark.

"Nagato, I have made an assessment of your strength."

"You only have two choices."

"Either use Pain's Animal Path to reverse summon your original body and escape, or use Shinra Tensei."

"If it's the former, I will chase him and kill the Beast Payne first, then kill you. If it's the latter, unfortunately, your move can only push away the tree approaching you, and then it will cool down for five seconds. These five seconds are enough time for the tree to smash you to pieces..."

Just bear with it, this is Hashirama Senju, the power of Wood Release that brings peace to the troubled times!

But to Obito's surprise... Nagato did not reverse summon himself, nor did he use Shinra Tensei!

"Tree World Advent? Many people think this move is strong, but in fact, it is not strong at all."

"With the dual blessing of "Eye Technique: Intentional Fighting Energy" and "Six Paths Ninja Tool: Banana Fan", a single blow of the most ordinary wind escape technique is enough to destroy the tree world!!!"

“Swoosh!” “Swoosh!” Nagato’s right pupil flickered with red light. With the incomparable insight of Dadou Naibian, he was able to move around in the wide-open tree world as if he was in an empty space. Occasionally, he could summon the ‘banana fan’ in a split second and dance with his long sleeves!!!

"boom……!!!!!"

What exploded with the fan was a catastrophic gale with a force comparable to half of Super Shinra Tensei...!!!
