Do You Want to Dance Too?

Madara Uchiha did not make things difficult for Nagato and the other two. Before obtaining the Rinnegan, he looked down on them, and after obtaining the Rinnegan, he paid them even less attention.

They're just three ants; they're not worth Madara Uchiha his promise for!

Madara Uchiha, wielding the Rinnegan, left the Land of Rivers with Zetsu and Black and White Zetsu.

Not long after Madara Uchiha left, Nagato and the other two came to their senses. Yahiko, jolted awake, blurted out, "Oh no, we've been tricked!"

Konan shook her head, her face pale, and said, "Was that Genjutsu?"

Nagato recalled the feeling from just now and then guessed, "It shouldn't be Genjutsu; it's Black Zetsu. He's controlling our minds."

"We were targeted by Black Zetsu when we were very young. He must have planted some kind of special device in our heads."

Konan said anxiously, "Then what do we do? Madara Uchiha has obtained the Rinnegan, can Yichen still deal with him?"

Nagato remained silent.

Yahiko suddenly said, "Konan, didn't Yichen give us a Byakugan earlier?"

Konan paused for a moment, then took out a bottle from her Ninja Tool Pouch. Inside the bottle, a pair of pure white eyes were soaking in nutrient solution.

Konan said, "It's here. I'll transplant it onto Nagato right now."

Yahiko naturally wouldn't stop them. As he watched Konan transplant the eyes into Nagato, he said, "Do you think Yichen already knew that Madara Uchiha would steal the Rinnegan?"

"That's why he gave us the Byakugan so early on."

When Yichen was involved, Konan was a little slow to react; it was only then that she understood what Yahiko meant.

"Yahiko, are you saying that Yichen has a way to deal with Madara Uchiha who has retrieved the Rinnegan?" Konan asked with some surprise.

Yahiko hesitated for a moment, then said, "Perhaps. He sees much further ahead than we do."

Yahiko is right and wrong. Yichen isn't confident he can deal with Madara Uchiha; rather, he needs Madara Uchiha to deplete the Six Paths Power within Naruto Sasuke.

If these two saviors were to use the power given to them by the Sage of Six Paths against me, could I, a transmigrator, possibly defeat the chosen one of this plane?

Therefore, Yichen needs someone to draw the fire so that Naruto and Sasuke can voluntarily use up their Six Paths Power.

They could use them on Madara Uchiha or Kaguya Otsutsuki.

For Madara Uchiha to reach his peak, he must confront Naruto and his Naruto head-on, so Yichen remained calm.

After the transplant surgery, Nagato tried to open his eyes. He looked around and was somewhat unaccustomed to the visual change from the Rinnegan to the Byakugan.

Konan asked, "Nagato, can you use the Byakugan? Does your body reject it?"

Yahiko also cast a concerned glance his way.

Nagato sensed it for a moment, then frowned and said, "It seems so."

Konan said worriedly, "How could that be? Yichen said there's no threshold for transplanting the Byakugan. You can even control the Rinnegan, so there shouldn't be any danger in transplanting the Byakugan."

"Was there something wrong with my transplant surgery? Let's go find Medical Ninja to take a look."

Nagato thought for a moment, then shook his head and said, "My senses are not right. This feeling doesn't seem to be rejection."

Yahiko said, "Why don't we try and see if we can use the Byakugan's ability?"

Nagato nodded, about to try activating his Byakugan, when he suddenly froze.

He turned his head and looked around, then his gaze fell on one of the fragments of the Chibaku Tensei.

Nagato reached out and pointed at the rubble, whispering, "Banshō Ten'in."

As soon as he finished speaking, the piece of gravel was drawn to his hand.

Yahiko and Konan didn't react immediately; they had seen this scene many times before.

But then the two of them exclaimed in surprise at the same time. Konan even said directly, "Banshō Ten'in? Isn't that Rinnegan Dojutsu? Nagato, how do you know this technique?"

Yahiko then asked, "Nagato, is this the power of the Byakugan?"

Nagato shook his head and said, "No, my Byakugan is still fused with my body; this is the power of the Rinnegan."

Konan said, "But your Rinnegan was taken away."

Nagato said, "I'm not sure either, but I think I can still use some of the Rinnegan's Dōjutsu."

Nagato then tested all the Rinnegan Dojutsu he knew.

The results showed that he could still use Dōjutsu such as Shinra Tensei and Banshō Ten'in.

These Dōjutsu seem to have been imprinted on his soul, becoming his Hon.

However, he was unable to use advanced or rarely used Dōjutsu such as Limbo: Border Jail.

Rinnegan Dojutsu, Nagato once again focused his attention on the Byakugan.

He carefully sensed it for a moment, then said, "I understand, my Byakugan is merging with the original Rinnegan's properties."

"Yes, and the power of the First Hokage's Cells in my body. No, and the power of our Uzumaki Clan's bloodline."

Konan thought for a moment, and realized that she seemed to have heard Yichen mention this situation when they were chatting sometime ago.

After a while, Konan said, "I remember now, this is a sign that the eyes are evolving."

"Nagato, your Byakugan might evolve into a more advanced form, like the Rinnegan."

Yahiko exclaimed excitedly, "Really? That's wonderful! Once Nagato's eyes have evolved, we'll go help Yichen!"

At this moment, Konan shook her head and said, "No, Yichen said that the evolution of the eyes requires a huge amount of energy."

"The reason why Madara Uchiha waited until his later years to awaken the Rinnegan was related to the accumulation of Chakra in his eyes."

Yahiko was taken aback. Such a requirement? But their Akatsuki Organization didn't have any large sources of Chakra.

At this moment, Nagato said, "Let's go find Sasori!"

Konan didn't understand at first and asked, "What scorpion?"

Yahiko exclaimed excitedly, "Sasori of the Red Sands? Nagato, are you talking about the Dragon Vein?"

Nagato nodded and said, "That's right. If it can absorb the power of the Dragon Vein, these Byakugan should have enough power to evolve."

Konan said, "But will Sasori of the Red Sands agree? Nagato, you've lost your Rinnegan, can you still suppress him?"

"I heard from Yichen that, with the blessing of the Dragon Vein, the Sasori of the Red Sands is now quite powerful."

Nagato shook his head and said, "Actually, there's no need to suppress him. Sasori is a research fanatic; he doesn't care about things we consider important."

"He only cares about his puppet research; he only occupied the Dragon Vein for research purposes."

"As long as we don't interfere with his research, he won't make things difficult for us. If we can help his research on puppets, he will even cooperate with us."

"As long as I don't absorb the entire Dragon Vein, Scorpion won't care."

"If I tell Sasori how I control the Six Paths of Pain, he should agree to let me absorb a portion of the Dragon Vein."

Nagato was confident, Konan and Yahiko said, "Alright, let's go now."

After saying this, the three of them didn't return to River Ninja Village, but hurriedly headed to the location of the Dragon Vein.

Meanwhile, Madara Uchiha and Black and White Zetsu, stopped before even leaving the Land of Rivers.

At that moment, a white head emerged from the ground in front of Madara Uchiha.

This is the White Zetsu main body.

The White Zetsu main body did not come alone; it was followed by an army of thousands of White Zetsu.

White Zetsu main body emerged from the ground and said to Madara Uchiha, "Lord Madara, I'm late."

Madara Uchiha said, "It's not too late."

After saying that, Madara took one of White Zetsu's eyes and replaced it with the Rinnegan.

Bai Jue's body did not hesitate. It crossed the fingers of both hands to form a "" seal, and then shouted, "The art of reincarnation!"

When the White Zetsu main body used the Rebirth Jutsu, the thousands of White Zetsu clone all placed their arms on the White Zetsu clone in front of them, while the White Zetsu clone at the very front placed its arms directly on the White Zetsu main body.

Then, starting from the outermost edge, the White Zetsu clone began to wither away rapidly, like plants.

As the number of White Zetsu clone died reached a certain level, white smoke began to rise from Madara Uchiha's body.

This process lasted for quite some time, and by the time it ended, all the thousands of White Zetsu clone and the White Zetsu main body had perished.

But Madara Uchiha didn't care. He looked at his hands, felt the boiling blood in his body, and laughed loudly, saying, "This body is more like it!"

After saying that, Madara Uchiha took out the Rinnegan from the White Zetsu main body and placed both Rinnegan into his own eye sockets.

With the Rinnegan transplant complete, Madara Uchiha burst into laughter once more; at this moment, his strength had finally returned to its peak.

No, even stronger than his peak years!

He awakened the Rinnegan when he was on his deathbed, but his body had already decayed by then, and he had never experienced the power he possessed now.

This was the first time he had ever experienced the power of a true Sage level.

Madara Uchiha was not obsessed with this power; his goals went far beyond that.

He asked Black Zetsu behind him, "Tell me the whereabouts of the nine Tailed Beasts in detail."

Black Zetsu equally indifferent to the collective death of White Zetsu's White Zetsu main body and its White Zetsu clone.

Even though he was now the only White Zetsu clone left in the entire Ninja World, he didn't take it seriously.

White Zetsu are consumables.

Oh, no, there's also Erwuzi, who received the order but didn't come, also known as A-Tu.

Black Zetsu was clearly prepared; he immediately said, "One-Tail Jinchuriki Gaara, is now the Fifth Kazekage of Sunagakure."

"The Two-Tails resides in the Land of Fire, Six-Tails resides in the Land of Whirlpools. These two Tailed Beasts are not within their Jinchuriki."

"The Four-Tails Jinchuriki, Roshi, and the Five-Tails Jinchuriki, Han, are both currently in Iwagakure."

"The Three-Tails Jinchuriki, Ao, Seven-Tails Jinchuriki, Kaze, are both on the battlefield in the Land of Water."

"The Nine-Tails was split into Yin and Yang halves parts by the Fourth Hokage, and both are currently on the battlefield in the Land of Water."

"Only the Eight-Tails- Tails is missing!"

Madara Uchiha, then turned to look in the direction of the Land of Wind and said, "Let's start with the One-Tail."

Black Zetsu asked, "Lord Madara, shall we summon the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path?"

Madara Uchiha glanced in the direction of the Land of Water and said, "I can sense that the Demonic Statue of the Outer Path is fighting there. Let's ignore it for now."

Black Zetsu nodded and said, "The Sunagakure was destroyed by the Iwa ninja Village before, and the new Sunagakure is located further south."

Then the two of them went to the Land of Wind.

Under the leadership of Baki and Gaara, Sunagakure has recovered a great deal of its strength in recent years, and the Sunagakure now has nearly six thousand ninjas.

This number is almost comparable to the size of Sunagakure before Yichen's rise to power.

Of course, this refers to the scale following a certain Ninja World War.

If this Sunagakure had existed after Second Shinobi War, its strength would have been quite considerable.

But in the present moment, Baki and Gaara feel absolutely no sense of security.

This feeling became even stronger when they received news that the Iwa ninja were attacking the Land of Water.

Are the Iwa ninja preparing for a war of unification?

Everyone in Sunagakure knew that if Iwa ninja won this First Shinobi War, it would mean that there would be no longer any obstacles to Iwa ninja Unifying the Ninja World.

Baki and Gaara, siblings, discussed it and decided that when that day came, they would voluntarily disband the Sunagakure.

These high-ranking officials voluntarily went to Iwagakure to act as hostages.

This was the only way they could think of to save the lives of the thousands of ninja from Sunagakure.

If the Iwa ninja lose, then the Sunagakure should be able to continue to eke out a living for quite some time.

Because they had lost their ambition to contend for supremacy, the Sunagakure did not send anyone to participate in the Land of Water's war this time.

The Sunagakure has clearly fallen behind the times in the Ninja World. Not only are they unaware that Sage has emerged in the Ninja World, they are also oblivious to the fact that many Super Kage-level Ninja World have appeared.

Perhaps to the Sunagakure, there's no difference between Super Kage-level and Sage.

In their eyes, Yichen alone could easily defeat the Sunagakure; they didn't care at all about the strength of the other Iwa ninja.

The Sunagakure ninja waited resignedly for news from the Land of Water battlefield.

For some reason, Gaara felt uneasy. Instead of dealing with the documents, he stood alone at the office window, gazing at the sky outside, lost in thought.

Suddenly, a small black dot in the distant sky caught Gaara's eye.

He snapped out of his daze and watched the small black dot slowly enlarge until he recognized it as a person, a flying ninja.

Flying without any external force—could it be that the Iwa ninja are attacking? Gaara somewhat worried.

However, his thoughts quickly changed, because as the person approached the Sunagakure, he transformed into a blue giant!

Boom!

Gaara was only just realizing what was happening when Madara Uchiha's Perfect Susanoo slashed through the Sunagakure.

Whether he realized it or not didn't really matter.

Next, Madara Uchiha swiftly ravaged the Sunagakure.

Gaara's all-out attack only resulted in a single Madara Uchiha.

Less than a minute later, Madara Uchiha left carrying the unconscious Gaara.

The entire Sunagakure was now in ruins; although some people had managed to survive, they were few in number.

Kankuro died, and Baki died too, but Temari survived.

When disaster struck, she was fast, lucky, and mainly lucky, and managed to dodge Madara Uchiha's indiscriminate attacks.

However, Temari showed no joy at her good fortune; she stared blankly at the ruins of the Sunagakure.

Excluding the less than two thousand Sunagakure were on missions outside, it's estimated that a few hundred of those who remained in the village would be extremely lucky to survive.

Madara Uchiha the wealth that the Sunagakure Village had painstakingly accumulated over many years in less than a minute.

And that was before Madara Uchiha even used his full strength.

Years of hope were extinguished in an instant. Temari with despair and wanted to commit suicide, but she was stopped by the other Sunagakure who had survived by sheer luck.

Madara Uchiha paid no attention to the Sunagakure behind him; he was already heading towards the Land of Fire.

It didn't take long to capture the Two-Tails. Madara Uchiha arrived at the hiding place provided by Black Zetsu Two-Tails took care of it with just a glance.

Then, carrying Gaara in one hand and pulling the Two-Tails, who was trapped in Genjutsu, with the other, he headed towards Iwagakure.

In a conference room inside the Tsuchikage's Office Building in Iwagakure, a massive Sensory Barrier is being set up.

This barrier can monitor the movements of the entire Ninja World.

The barrier was activated the moment Yichen left Iwagakure.

Orochimaru, Yichen, and others entered the moon, which was detected by the ninjas responsible for sensing.

The war Land of Water is being monitored in real time.

Similarly, the Iwa ninja sensory team received news of the great battle between Madara Uchiha and Nagato immediately.

Then Madara Uchiha's whereabouts were kept under the control of the Iwa ninja.

Of course, this also explains why Madara Uchiha didn't intend to hide his whereabouts.

Madara Uchiha, with his arrogance, disdained to act secretly.

When Madara Uchiha arrived at Iwagakure with a Jinchuriki and a Tailed Beast, Ōnoki had already been informed.

He reminded the ninjas in all positions to be vigilant and ready to respond to any emergencies.

At the same time, he also transferred Minamoto Shizuka and Rion, who were giving advice to Natsuki and the other two.

Then he went to the rooftop of the Tsuchikage's Office Building and looked south.

It's bound to happen, so let's hope the village is well-prepared!

The opponent was Madara Uchiha, which made Ōnoki feel uncertain. Madara Uchiha was Ōnoki's deepest fear.

Even though Iwagakure's strength was no longer what it used to be, and so many Sages had emerged in succession, Ōnoki's fear had not diminished.

When Madara Uchiha arrived at Iwagakure, he was speechless looking at the village that had turned itself into a turtle shell.

He hesitated for a moment, then unleashed his Susanoo and slashed down at the Four Red Yang Formation.

Unfortunately, the full-force attack of the Perfect Susanoo failed to break the Four Red Yang Formation.

The Four Red Yang Formation only trembled slightly before recovering.

Madara Uchiha. He knew about the Four Red Yang Formation, but the power of the Four Red Yang Formation before him seemed to be even greater than he remembered.

Madara Uchiha's intuition was correct; this was an upgraded version of the Four Red Yang Formation, researched by Yichen and gathered together the Sealing Jutsu masters of Iwagakure.

Taking a deep breath, Madara Uchiha began to get serious.

He first used Chibaku Tensei, which created more than a dozen huge meteorites above Iwagakure.

Then it created more than ten clones, each of which used the Perfect Susanoo.

Madara Uchiha's goal was clear: to use force. He wanted to Awakening Eyes.

However, Madara Uchiha soon changed his opinion of Iwagakure.

This isn't just a turtle shell; it's covered in thorns!

Before the dozen or so meteorites in the sky could fall, attacks were launched from within the Iwagakure.

A vast sea of fire engulfed a meteorite in an instant, and after the flames subsided, an exceptionally thick stream of water followed.

The scorching rock cracked immediately upon being hit by the cold water, and just then, a bolt of Lightning Release struck the cracked meteorite.

Boom~

The meteorite exploded in mid-air, sending fragments flying everywhere.

Madara Uchiha was stunned. How could the attack from the Iwa ninja penetrate the Four Red Yang Formation?

He quickly understood why: the Iwa ninja had used Space-Time Ninjutsu to directly teleport the Ninjutsu inside the Four Red Yang Formation to the outside!

Madara Uchiha frowned and thought for a moment. This method seemed somewhat similar to the Heavenly Transfer Technique of the Kumogakure.

This is Space-Time Ninjutsu that can only teleport in one direction.

It is impossible for someone outside to attack the inside of the Four Red Yang Formation from the opposite direction.

Even after faking his death, Madara Uchiha remained quite concerned about the state of Ninjutsu. He was aware that the Cloud ninja had developed a Space-Time Ninjutsu capable of teleporting objects.

He also knew that the Third Raikage could use the Heavenly Transfer Technique for Space Teleportation.

He just hadn't expected that the Heavenly Transfer Technique could be used to teleport Ninjutsu.

It seems that Space-Time Ninjutsu has developed quite rapidly in the Ninja World these past few years.

While Madara Uchiha in thought, dozens more waves of attacks were launched from within Iwagakure, shattering all the meteorites in the sky.

This wasn't the end of it; while this part of the Iwa Ninja Army was attacking the meteorite with combined Ninjutsu...

Other Iwa ninja were attacking Madara Uchiha's dozen or so clones 'Susanoo.

The Iwa Ninja Army was divided into battle formations, with clear division of labor and a tight pace.

There are methods that use Earth Release and Water Release to create swamps to restrict Susanoo's movement.

The Mist Technique was used to obscure the vision of Madara Uchiha within Susanoo.

They used Lightning Release to paralyze Madara Uchiha's clones.

There was Water Release to block Susanoo.

It used a huge Earth Wall to defend against Susanoo's attacks.

There are those who can use powerful Wind Release to directly strike Susanoo.

There were even several Rock Golem formed from the Gōriki Shiki no Jutsu who rushed up and Susanoo combat.

The most outrageous thing was that Namikaze attacks blew countless Exploding Tag toward a Susanoo, and then set off a huge firework.

Such attacks would hardly be able to harm Madara Uchiha himself; with his agility, he could easily dodge them.

However, it was clearly impossible for him to break the Four Red Yang Formation by brute force.

The Iwa ninja clearly wouldn't allow him to launch continuous attacks on the Four Red Yang Formation.

Madara Uchiha also wanted to exhaust the Chakra of the four people maintaining the Four Red Yang Formation through a war of attrition.

However, he soon realized he was wrong. Through his Rinnegan, he could see the four key positions of the Four Red Yang Formation. In addition to the four casters, there were also four ninjas responsible for providing Chakra.

Two of the four were from the Uzumaki Clan, and the other two were his targets on this trip: two Jinchuriki.

Around the four key points of the formation, many Iwa ninja were sitting cross-legged; these people were clearly the Chakra source prepared by the Iwa ninja.

Madara Uchiha felt there was a good chance he could exhaust the Chakra of the four members of Ikura.

However, there is basically no hope of wearing down Uzumaki Riori, or even the numerous Iwa ninja.

He only attacked for a few minutes before giving up.

At this moment, Black Zetsu emerged from the ground again and said, "Lord Madara, there is still a former Four-Tails Jinchuriki and a former Five-Tails Jinchuriki on the battlefield in the Land of Water."

"If taking down Iwagakure is too time-consuming, we can use those two Jinchuriki!"

Black Zetsu was still considerate of Madara Uchiha's feelings; he didn't directly say what would happen if they couldn't take it, but rather that they couldn't take it in a short time.

However, Madara Uchiha was unmoved. His Rinnegan, through the Four Red Yang Formation, saw Ōnoki standing atop the Tsuchikage's Office Building.

He said to Ōnoki, "Ōnoki, do you really think you can dance with just a Four Red Yang Formation?"

"You know nothing of power!"
