Uchiha Madara!

Revealing some things about Uchiha Obito to Yahiko's Trio was a decision Uchiha Jin had made only after careful consideration.

Uchiha Obito was now wholeheartedly determined to lead Nagato into darkness.

In the Original Plot, Uchiha Obito had killed Akatsuki Organization members who wanted to support Yahiko's Trio after they fell into a trap set by Shimura Danzō and Hanzō the Salamander, thereby bringing about Yahiko's death!

Although Uchiha Jin's arrival had changed this matter to some extent, having missed this opportunity, Uchiha Obito would surely seek out other chances!

If Yahiko's Trio knew nothing about this, they would inevitably be led around by the nose by Uchiha Obito!

Yahiko's Trio was stunned upon hearing this, recalling the strange man who had come to them before their Akatsuki Organization was established.

Yahiko spoke up. "Jin Big Brother, do you know that Mysterious Man who called himself Uchiha Madara?"

Uchiha Jin raised a brow. "Oh? It seems he's already made contact with you."

Yahiko nodded. "When the three of us first began our activities, that Mysterious Man claiming to be Uchiha Madara came looking for us!"

"His target was Nagato... or rather, Nagato's Rinnegan!"

"He said his organization had inherited the will passed down by the Sage of Six Paths, and that it wanted to guide those with the Rinnegan onto the right path!"

"He said wherever there was light, there would be darkness; where there was the concept of victors, there would be losers. That protecting peace through selfishness would inevitably lead to war, and protecting love would give rise to hatred..."

"Although his words made some sense, he said he wanted to sever all cause and effect in this world and create one with only love, only victors, and only peace!"

"How could something like that possibly be achieved!"

"I felt his intentions were far from pure, so I refused him!"

Yahiko recalled that day when he had met Uchiha Obito, and even now, lingering fear remained in his heart!

That man's aura had been too dark. His entire body had exuded a bloody aura, like a vicious ghost that had crawled out of hell!

For a long time after that day, Yahiko had not slept well, afraid that the man would come looking for them again.

At this thought, Yahiko looked at Uchiha Jin and asked curiously, "Jin Big Brother, do you know who that Mysterious Man is?"

"I do." Uchiha Jin nodded. "Though he isn't Uchiha Madara, he does have some connection to him. You could say he is Uchiha Madara's Inheritor!"

Yahiko was taken aback. He had not expected that Mysterious Man to truly be connected to the legendary Asura of the Ninja World!

Uchiha Jin continued, "As for what he said, just listen to it and leave it at that. Don't take it to heart! It is nothing but a lie, one that even he himself has been kept in the dark about!"

Nagato frowned slightly and asked, "Jin Big Brother, are you saying that person's ideal of 'only victors, only love' is a lie?"

Nagato could not deny that he had indeed nearly been persuaded by Uchiha Obito at the time!

If Yahiko had not decisively refused Uchiha Obito then, Nagato might truly have joined Uchiha Obito's organization in a moment of impulse.

It was not only because of the beautiful world Uchiha Obito had described to them, but also because of Uchiha Obito's understanding of the Rinnegan!

Nagato had also been searching for the secret behind his Rinnegan.

Uchiha Jin nodded and explained, "Within the Uchiha Clan Shrine, there is a special Stone Tablet passed down since ancient times. It records secrets that only the Sharinga of our Uchiha Clan can see."

"It includes the method for awakening the Rinnegan, as well as a way to create a beautiful world with 'only victors, only love'!"

"The method for awakening the Rinnegan?" Nagato froze, then exclaimed in shock, "The Rinnegan evolved from the Sharinga?"

Nagato was so shocked by the information Uchiha Jin had revealed about the Rinnegan that he subconsciously overlooked even the method for creating a beautiful world!

Yahiko and Konan were equally shocked, instinctively looking at Nagato's Rinnegan.

Uchiha Jin explained, "Our Uchiha Clan are descendants of Indra, the Eldest Son of the Sage of Six Paths, and inherited the Sage of Six Paths' Sage Eyes."

"The Senju of the Forest Clan, meanwhile, are descendants of Asura, the Second Son of the Sage of Six Paths, and inherited the Sage of Six Paths' Sage Body."

"Under normal circumstances, the limit of our Uchiha Clan's Sharinga evolution is the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan."

"But if the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan gains the power of the Senju Clan, it will prompt the Sharinga to evolve once more and obtain the power of the Sage of Six Paths."

"That is the Rinnegan!"

Uchiha Jin did not explain everything. After all, the matter of Indra's Chakra and Asura's Chakra was too secretive; revealing it would instead make his words less believable.

But even so, Yahiko's Trio was shocked beyond measure by Uchiha Jin's words!

Nagato murmured, "But I am neither from the Uchiha Clan nor the Senju Clan. Why do I have the Rinnegan..."

Nagato did not finish his sentence. He had already realized that a massive conspiracy lay hidden behind his Rinnegan!

And Uchiha Jin's next words confirmed his suspicions.

Uchiha Jin said, "That's right. These Rinnegan are not yours. Uchiha Madara merely placed them with you!"

"As for the reason... the Uzumaki Clan are cousins of the Senju Clan, descendants of Asura as well, and they too have the potential to awaken the Sage Body!"

"Only the physiques of the Uzumaki Clan and the Senju Clan can bear those eyes!"

"And there are not many members of the Uzumaki Clan and Senju Clan left in the Ninja World. Nagato, you are the pawn Uchiha Madara chose!"

Nagato's expression immediately darkened.

Because of his Rinnegan and Jiraiya's guidance, Nagato had once believed that he was the legendary Child of Destiny, a special existence in this world burdened with an extraordinary mission.

But now, he learned that he was merely a vessel used to nourish someone else's eyes, a pawn in another person's hand. How could he possibly accept that calmly!

Yahiko, however, thought of something that did not add up and said, "But wasn't Uchiha Madara killed by the First Hokage, Senju Hashirama, long ago? Nagato had not even been born at that time, right?"

Nagato and Konan also looked toward Uchiha Jin upon hearing that.

Judging by the timeline, it truly did not add up.

However, Uchiha Jin shook his head and explained, "In truth, Uchiha Madara did not die in that battle. On the contrary, he obtained Senju Hashirama's power during that battle!"

"Our Uchiha Clan possesses a Dōjutsu called Izanagi, which can alter circumstances in reality that are unfavorable to oneself!"

"Uchiha Madara used that technique to fake his death and escape!"
