"Oh? Shisui, are you confident?"
Nagato was somewhat surprised to hear Shisui volunteer, but after thinking it over, he found it reasonable.
After all, as Shisui had said, he had once been part of Konoha's Uchiha Clan. His understanding of the Uchiha naturally surpassed everyone else's.
If Shisui was willing to scheme, he might truly be able to obtain a pair of Three-Tomoe Sharingan for Hiruko before the war began!
When Shisui had first volunteered, Nagato had also thought of Madara Uchiha, who went by the alias Tobi.
But after Madara's figure flashed through his mind, Nagato immediately dismissed the thought.
What if Madara Uchiha managed to recruit Hiruko as well? Who would be in charge of the Akatsuki Organization then?
Although Shisui had also been brought into the Akatsuki Organization by Madara Uchiha, Nagato had initially been wary of him.
However, through their later interactions, he discovered that Shisui seemed to harbor a faint sense of rejection toward Madara Uchiha.
As a result, he had investigated some intelligence regarding Konoha's Night of the Coup.
To his surprise, Nagato found that during Konoha's Night of the Coup, Madara Uchiha had not helped Shisui at all. Instead, he had tried every possible means to lure him out of the village!
After making that discovery, Nagato understood why Shisui was somewhat repulsed by Madara Uchiha.
It made sense. Someone who knew all of your plans not only refused to help you seize power through a coup, but even wanted you to betray the village?
No one would have a favorable impression of Madara Uchiha after that!
It was only after understanding all this that Nagato gradually let go of his reservations toward Shisui.
Therefore, when Shisui took the initiative to help Hiruko obtain a pair of Three-Tomoe Sharingan, Nagato was actually quite
