Urashiki suddenly flew up and headed directly towards Nagato's location!
Seeing the direction Urashiki was headed, all the members of the Akatsuki were startled, and quickly followed behind!
This time, it was Nagato who had intentionally revealed his chakra to attract everyone's attention. Not only did Urashiki sense it, but the more perceptive members of the Akatsuki also sensed it!
Wasn't Tendo Pain supposed to meet Urashiki just a moment ago? But now, the leader's chakra was coming from somewhere else?
The Akatsuki members quickly realized what to do and chased after Urashiki.
After about ten minutes, in a dimly lit cave, Urashiki walked straight in.
Following closely behind, Itachi Uchiha and the other members of Akatsuki also entered!
Nagato appeared as thin as a skeleton, like a disabled man, with black rods protruding from his frail body, giving a shocking impression. His eyes were in the lavender Rinnegan form!
Standing beside Nagato were the remaining five Paths of Pain.
"They are all here... So, is this the true body of our leader?"
With the presence of the five Paths of Pain and Nagato's lavender Rinnegan, the Akatsuki members confirmed their suspicions. Their guess was correct—the leader only had one Rinnegan.
All the others were just puppets controlled by his Rinnegan!
"So, this is the true form of Akatsuki's leader?" Itachi's eyes flickered slightly!
After being in the Akatsuki for so long, he finally saw the true form of their leader. The level of secrecy in the Akatsuki organization ran deep!
"So today, Nagato decided to reveal his true identity?" Obito muttered silently.
However, he didn't think Nagato made the wrong choice.
Considering the current state of the shinobi world, Nagato revealing his true form to ally with other powerful figures to first deal with Akira seemed to be a reasonable move.
"I didn't expect it; our leader is the strongest puppeteer in the shinobi world!" Sasori of the Red Sand suddenly spoke, his tone filled with admiration.
He had worked alongside Tendo Pain for so many years without realizing that he was actually a human puppet?
Sasori was impressed by the puppetry abilities of the Rinnegan!
While the Akatsuki members contemplated Nagato's revelation, Urashiki looked at Nagato, a mocking smile forming on his lips.
"I thought it would be someone strong who dared to propose an alliance with me, but it turns out you're just a guy using someone else's Rinnegan!" Urashiki said bluntly.
"Someone else's Rinnegan!?" Hearing what Urashiki said, Nagato's expression changed slightly!
So what did that mean? His Rinnegan wasn't his own? Was that even possible?
"The power of the Rinnegan is not something just anyone can bear!"
"You've got quite the physique to survive using someone else's Rinnegan until now."
"But even so, it won't change the ultimate result. Your body will soon reach its limit," Urashiki shook his head, disappointment evident on his face.
Possessing the Rinnegan generally meant having Super Kage-level strength—it was practically a rule!
But Nagato? In Akira's eyes, Nagato's strength was merely the peak of the Kage-level, not yet reaching the Super Kage-level.
Therefore, Nagato's body, while wielding the Rinnegan, struggled to bear the burden it brought!
"Damn it, this guy figured out with just one glance that Nagato's Rinnegan doesn't belong to him. This might cause Nagato to become suspicious!" Obito, standing nearby, was secretly anxious.
Obito knew all too well about the origin of Nagato's Rinnegan!
"Could Madara's plan be exposed?" Similarly, upon hearing Urashiki's comment that Nagato's Rinnegan wasn't his own, Black Zetsu, the manipulative figure behind the scenes, felt a wave of tension.
Although Nagato was secretly suspicious, he showed no signs of revealing his true thoughts outwardly.
He simply looked at Urashiki quietly and said, "The condition of my Rinnegan doesn't need your evaluation. I just want to say that our goal is to deal with Akira. How about it? Do you want to join forces?"
"Join forces? And if I refuse? Do you think you can keep me here?" Urashiki said, casually carrying his fishing rod over his shoulder as he glanced dismissively at the Akatsuki members surrounding him.
Nagato said nothing, staring at Urashiki with his lavender Rinnegan.
Meanwhile, the other Akatsuki members silently stepped forward, forming a half-circle around Urashiki, clearly intending to surround him!
Just from the way they moved, it was obvious that the Akatsuki members shared a mutual understanding.
"Very well, if you are willing to help me, why wouldn't I agree?" After thinking for a while, Urashiki nodded, agreeing to form an alliance with the Akatsuki.
This response made Nagato and the others nod in satisfaction.
Regardless, since this guy had agreed, things were looking up. At the very least, they now had a powerful ally!
Once Akira was dealt with, facing Urashiki alone would be much easier than taking on both Akira and Urashiki simultaneously!
"Since we are allies now, let's introduce ourselves properly. My name is Nagato, Uzumaki Nagato, and they are..."
Nagato began with a self-introduction before introducing the rest of the Akatsuki members to Urashiki.
"Uzumaki!?" Except for Obito and Black Zetsu, the other Akatsuki members were secretly astonished upon hearing Nagato's surname.
Since the fall of the Land of Whirlpools, members of the Uzumaki Clan were rarer than pandas!
To think the leader of their organization was from the Uzumaki Clan!
"Urashiki, Otsutsuki Urashiki!" Since they were allies now, a sense of formality was required. Urashiki followed suit and introduced himself.
"Otsutsuki? I've never heard of this surname in the shinobi world, nor have I heard of this name!" The Akatsuki members silently pondered over Urashiki's introduction.
...
So, a mysterious figure? Truly unprecedentedly mysterious. No one in the entire shinobi world had ever heard of him!
"Hmm? Black Zetsu, what's wrong with you?" Just when all the members of the Akatsuki were quietly contemplating the mysterious surname, White Zetsu suddenly spoke in surprise.
"Nothing, I just shivered because I needed to pee!" Black Zetsu replied in a low voice.
"Urgent to pee? What does that feel like? You can even pee?" White Zetsu, diverted by the response, asked curiously.
"It's hard to describe. Even if I explain, you won't understand," Black Zetsu said calmly, showing no intention of explaining in detail to White Zetsu.
While Black Zetsu casually responded to White Zetsu, outwardly maintaining calm, he was internally ecstatic, almost wishing he could immediately acknowledge his kinship!
Otsutsuki! Others might not know what this surname meant, but Black Zetsu understood it all too well!
...0
He was a product born from the will of his mother, Otsutsuki Kaguya. In the shinobi world, the only ones qualified to call themselves Otsutsuki were his mother Kaguya, the Sage of Six Paths Hagoromo, and Otsutsuki Hamura!
While most in the shinobi world had no clue what the Otsutsuki surname signified from a thousand years ago, Black Zetsu knew very well!
This man claimed to be a member of the Otsutsuki Clan?
So? Could it be that he was of the same lineage as his mother?
At the very least, he couldn't be a descendant of those two unfilial sons, Hagoromo and Hamura!
Hagoromo inherited the Rinnegan, while Hamura inherited the Byakugan—their powers were divided!
But Urashiki possessed both the Byakugan and the power of the Rinnegan, just like Black Zetsu's mother, Kaguya Otsutsuki.
This had to be an even purer Otsutsuki bloodline than that of Hagoromo or Hamura!
"I never expected it... After hiding in the shinobi world for so long, without ever hearing that Mother had other clan members, and suddenly one appears!"
"If I could acknowledge him as kin, he could be a great help in reviving Mother, couldn't he?"
"Though there's only a fifty-fifty chance, it's worth a try!" Black Zetsu thought to himself, his excitement growing.
If it weren't for the presence of all the Akatsuki members, Black Zetsu might have rushed forward to acknowledge Urashiki right then and there!
Putting aside Black Zetsu's excitement, after verbally agreeing to the alliance, both sides naturally proceeded to share intelligence.
Next, they started formulating corresponding strategies!
With that, the Akatsuki shared all the intelligence they had on Akira with Urashiki.
From their words, Urashiki gained a deeper understanding of Akira's situation!
Not to mention the Akatsuki's side of the story.
At that moment, Akira and Sasuke were also discussing how to locate Urashiki and eliminate him...

"Konoha's talents just keep growing," Uchiha Akira murmured to himself as he lay quietly on his bed after another exhausting day.
First, there was Konan, who was now staying by his side. Although she wasn't technically an ally, having her close meant that the Akatsuki had one less major asset to use against him. Six billion exploding tags—just think about that! With that power, not only could Konoha be obliterated, even the entire Fire Country could be turned upside down.
So, even if Konan wasn't working for him, as long as she remained by his side and wasn't a force opposing him on behalf of the Akatsuki, it would be enough. Moreover, Roshi and Han, the two Jinchūriki, were now his direct subordinates.
Of course, in front of someone at the Super Kage level, a Jinchūriki's power didn't seem as significant. However, all the Tailed Beasts could use Tailed Beast Bombs. If Roshi and Han unleashed Tailed Beast Bombs, wouldn't they essentially be two super cannons?
What? Roshi and Han couldn't freely transform into Tailed Beasts yet? What were the Uchiha's Mangekyo Sharingan for?
A single glare from the Mangekyo Sharingan, and even the Nine-Tails had to submit. There was no way the Four-Tails and Five-Tails wouldn't comply.
The Uchiha clan currently had several Mangekyo Sharingan, after all.
Lying on his bed, Akira's mind raced with thoughts.
Originally, he had thought his main enemies in the ninja world were the Akatsuki, Madara Uchiha, and perhaps Kaguya Otsutsuki, the final boss who had betrayed Madara.
But now, Urashiki Otsutsuki had suddenly appeared, and Boruto, along with an older Sasuke, had also arrived in this timeline. Things were getting complicated.
As he pondered, Akira's consciousness began to blur. But just as he was about to drift off to sleep, he suddenly sensed a familiar chakra approaching.
Akira immediately snapped awake and sat up.
A snake appeared before him—the one used for communication with Kakuzu.
The snake opened its mouth and spat out a large scroll. Akira's heart lifted with anticipation as he unraveled it, quickly forming seals and whispering, "Release!"
The sealing technique on the scroll was undone, and a heap of money appeared in front of Akira.
By his estimation, Kakuzu had managed to gather over 20 million ryo this time—pretty impressive!
"Alright, looks like I can fund two more rounds of life simulations," Akira thought.
Aside from the money, Kakuzu had also provided crucial information.
One piece of information was about Nagato—Nagato had now come out of the shadows entirely.
The other part was the shocking news that the Akatsuki had allied with Urashiki Otsutsuki.
This news made Akira feel uneasy.
The Akatsuki were already powerful and incredibly deep in their secrets, and Urashiki Otsutsuki was even stronger. And now the two had joined forces?
"Sigh, there's no other choice. It must be because I'm too powerful that they feel they have to join forces against me," Akira thought after a moment of contemplation.
Sure, dealing with the Akatsuki and Urashiki seemed difficult, but in recent encounters, he always seemed to have the upper hand.
For example, during his fight with Nagato, he had turned Tendo Pain into his own trophy.
And during his battle with Urashiki, he had injured him so severely that he fled for his life.
So, while he found them difficult to deal with, they must have felt the same about him, which is why they allied.
As the saying goes, "People fear ghosts, but ghosts fear people even more."
So maybe he didn't need to worry as much—they should be the ones more worried about him.
Thinking this way, Akira felt much better.
In the current three-way standoff, was he the "Cao Cao" of this world?
So, Liu Bei and Sun Quan had to join forces just to contend with him?
"Uchiha Cao Cao Akira?" Akira shook his head, dismissing the ridiculous thought from his mind.
With renewed energy, Akira activated the Life Simulator.
He had been short on funds for several days, and the 20 million ryo Kakuzu brought was like a drink of water for someone lost in the desert.
While a thirsty person in the desert could probably gulp down even half a basin of water, even a single cup was incredibly valuable.
With the Life Simulator activated, ten million ryo vanished instantly.
Then, the text from the simulator began to scroll.
[Three days later, you and Roshi and Han trained intensively. By using your Mangekyo Sharingan, you enabled them to control their Tailed Beast powers more smoothly!]
[Half a month later, the Akatsuki attacked Konoha, causing significant losses to the village!]
[To prevent you from acting recklessly, the Akatsuki and Urashiki deliberately kept the battlefield within Konoha!]
[Konoha suffered unprecedented devastation, and Naruto Uzumaki's Nine-Tails was extracted!]
[You successfully resurrected the Fourth Hokage via Edo Tensei and used his half of the Nine-Tails to seal it back within Naruto, saving his life!]
[The ninja world trembled, and Konoha's morale plummeted!]
[Two months later, to protect the Eight-Tails Jinchūriki Killer Bee, the Fourth Great Ninja War erupted!]
[Madara Uchiha was resurrected and successfully cast the Infinite Tsukuyomi!]
[You died.]
The results of this simulation left Akira's face looking grim.
So, the Akatsuki and Urashiki had allied and attacked Konoha? As expected, they were truly dangerous!
And worst of all, Naruto, the main protagonist of the Naruto world, had lost the Nine-Tails?
Furthermore, the Fourth Great Ninja War began in just two to three months?
Everything had escalated too quickly!
Also, the Susanoo formed by the Mangekyo Sharingan was supposed to be able to resist the Infinite Tsukuyomi. So why did he succumb to it?
This didn't make sense. Could it be that his eyes had been taken?
And given Madara's personality, once he cast the Infinite Tsukuyomi, there should have been a battle over the Ten-Tails between him and Urashiki, right?
Unfortunately, since it happened after the Infinite Tsukuyomi, Akira had no way of knowing.
Akira decided not to immediately extract the chakra but closed his eyes to get some sleep instead.
The next morning, he still had ten million ryo remaining. After a moment of consideration, Akira decided to conduct another simulation.
Although the time covered by the simulation was short, the chakra gained was still worth it, even if just a little.
With the final ten million ryo gone, the Life Simulator activated once again.
[Three days later, you and Roshi and Han trained intensively. By using your Mangekyo Sharingan, you enabled them to control their Tailed Beast powers more smoothly!]
[Half a month later, the Akatsuki attacked Konoha, but you had already arranged an evacuation, ensuring there were no casualties!]
[You organized Konoha's forces to counterattack the Akatsuki!]
[You and Sasuke joined forces against Urashiki Otsutsuki!]
[At a critical moment, Black Zetsu took advantage of your depleted chakra and attached himself to you, and you were sealed away by Nagato's Chibaku Tensei!]
[Sasuke and Naruto destroyed the Chibaku Tensei and successfully freed you!]
[The Akatsuki's attack on Konoha ended in failure!]
[Three months later, most of the Tailed Beasts, including the one in Kumogakure, fell into the hands of the Akatsuki!]
[Half a year later, Madara Uchiha was resurrected, using deception to lure Roshi and Han out of the village and successfully captured their Tailed Beasts, leaving the Akatsuki with eight of the Nine Tailed Beasts!]
[Eight months later, Madara Uchiha performed the Edo Tensei to resurrect the Gold and Silver Brothers and obtained the last of the Nine-Tails chakra!]
[The Divine Tree was born, and Madara and Urashiki fought fiercely over the fruit!]
[You rallied all of Konoha's strong shinobi to fight for the fruit!]
[You died.]
The timeline had extended slightly, from two or three months to over half a year.
Because he had prepared in advance, Konoha didn't lose the Nine-Tails during the attack by the Akatsuki and Urashiki.
However, Madara was revived, used Edo Tensei to bring back the Gold and Silver Brothers, and obtained Nine-Tails chakra from them.
So, to revive the Ten-Tails, the chakra from all Nine Tailed Beasts was necessary.
However, it wasn't strictly required that every single one be sealed within the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path.
Even the Nine-Tails chakra inside the Gold and Silver Brothers could be used to revive the Ten-Tails?
As for the Divine Tree's fruit appearing, and the ensuing battle between Urashiki and Madara over it—that was quite logical!
Yet, the simulation didn't provide much detail about the final battle, which occurred more than half a year later.
Regardless, Akira had learned something important—half a month from now, the Akatsuki and Urashiki would attack Konoha, and they were targeting the Tailed Beasts!
With only half a month left to prepare, Akira felt it was crucial to get ready in advance.
After a brief moment of thought, Akira got up, washed up, and had breakfast with Keiko, the old man, Konan, and Sasuke.
He then left his house and walked in the direction of the Hokage Tower.
Upon reaching the Hokage's office, he saw Fugaku leisurely reading a book.
With the council handling administrative duties, Fugaku was now much more relaxed.
"Akira, you're here," Fugaku said casually, glancing up at him.
"Yeah, I need to discuss something important with you," Akira said seriously.
"Is there trouble somewhere else that needs your assistance?" Fugaku asked, setting his book aside.
First, Akira had rushed thousands of miles to the Land of Iron to save him, then had used the Heavenly Transfer Technique to help Sunagakure.
And now there was something else?
"This time, it's Konoha that will be under attack," Akira said, looking straight at Fugaku.
