Seeing Konan kneel before him in tears, willing to humble herself just to save Nagato, Yoru Machi let out a heavy sigh.
Looking at Nagato, whose Rinnegan had already been dug out, Yoru Machi showed a trace of regret.
He had gone to so much trouble to finally get Nagato to defect, only to end up with a weakened version of him.
After all, Nagato with the Rinnegan and Nagato without the Rinnegan were practically two entirely different concepts.
But if he simply left Nagato to die now, this deal would truly be a complete loss for him.
If Nagato with the Rinnegan was an S-rank shinobi, then Nagato without it was still at least an A-rank shinobi. Even a mosquito was meat, no matter how small.
Besides, the Akatsuki Organization's intelligence and assets were quite valuable too. Setting aside the intelligence for now, if Yoru Machi remembered correctly, Konan was the richest woman in the ninja world, wasn't she?
She could casually blow up six hundred billion explosive tags. While other shinobi burned Chakra in battle, Konan was outright burning money. If Kakuzu died after her, who knew how many times he would cry himself unconscious in the bathroom.
Looking at the barely alive Nagato, Yoru Machi had wanted to test the ocular technique of his right Mangekyo Sharingan, but ultimately felt it was unsuitable. He could only use Yang Release and Medical Ninjutsu to treat Nagato.
Ever since awakening his Mangekyo Sharingan, this was the first time Yoru Machi had used the power of those eyes.
The Uchiha Clan's Sharingan abilities—Amaterasu, Tsukuyomi, Susanoo... these powers were all derived from deities in Japanese mythology.
The powers residing within Yoru Machi's left and right eyes were actually much the same.
The ocular technique he had used to erase Amaterasu earlier
