Fugaku Exposed (Fourth Update)

This was still an understatement by Tong Ren; in his eyes, Nagato's eyes and Fugaku's Sharingan were not even in the same dimension.

They are like heaven and earth, completely different and cannot be explained by reason.

Fugaku then looked at the series of evaluations on the table.

[The insects become terrifyingly uncontrollable once they get within 10 meters!]

An evaluation by a ninja from the Aburame Clan.

[The amount of Chakra is enormous, even more terrifying than that of Tailed Beast!]

An evaluation from a ninja of the Uchiha Clan.

"What about Chakra levels? Is it really as the intelligence reports suggest?"

Fugaku asked again.

Although the Sharingan of the Uchiha Clan can also see Chakra, it is still significantly inferior to the Byakugan in this respect.

"Indeed, as the intelligence reports, in terms of Chakra reserves alone, even Mr. Utakata cannot compare to him. Perhaps only Naruto Uzumaki in Konoha has Chakra reserve that surpasses his!"

Tong Ren gave an affirmative answer.

This is troublesome!

This was what Fugaku was thinking.

In the Shinobi World, Dōjutsu are more than just the Sharingan and Byakugan; from time to time, there are ninjas with unique Dōjutsu.

Nagato, that monster, his Chakra reserves are beyond description.

Even his Dōjutsu are stronger than his own Mangekyō Sharingan?

Fugaku's first thought upon hearing this was, "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

However, Tong Ren's appearance didn't seem fake, and since he had gained Ren's trust, Fugaku naturally trusted Tong Ren as well.

There is absolutely no point in praising an outsider while belittling yourself.

How did this guy just appear out of nowhere?

The only intelligence Konoha had was the enemy's records within the Allied Shinobi Forces, and even those were mostly worthless.

Having served as Hokage for a year, how could Fugaku not understand Konoha's intelligence capabilities?

This kind of monster deserves constant surveillance, but the Allied Shinobi Forces had very little intelligence on it!

Just as Fugaku, someone began to make a suggestion.

"Lord Fugaku, how about we find a reason to refuse to show our faces?"

"That's right, I doubt Amegakure would dare to do anything?"

The suggestion, comparable to that of Zhuge Liang and Pang Tong, made Fugaku somewhat irritated.

"They've already agreed to the meeting, and then they change it at the last minute. Isn't that just telling the other party that there's a problem?"

After finishing his sentence with annoyance, Fugaku stared at the person who had uttered the words of the Crouching Dragon.

"Why didn't you discover this person's problem sooner? Don't tell me he became like this within a year?"

"Lord Fugaku, it was the Lord Hokage specifically instructed us not to pay too much attention to Amegakure!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Fugaku's expression changed slightly.

"What?! It was Ren- kun, no, Ren- sama who told you not to pay attention to Amegakure?"

"That's right, otherwise we wouldn't have only discovered Nagato's unusual behavior now!"

Fugaku immediately fell silent, pondering Ren's intentions.

Ren- kun may have noticed Nagato's unusual behavior and intentionally kept it a secret.

Could this be a backup plan left by Ren- kun?

Fugaku pondered this in his mind.

"Lord Fugaku, the enemy has already traveled nearly halfway!"

One of them spoke up to remind him.

Fugaku was still pondering whether Nagato was truly one of his own, but at this point Fugaku, he had no time to think further.

Regardless of whether they are one of our own or not, treat them as such for now.

"Notify Xuanyue to take the person to location number two. Also, tell the rest of you to prepare. If they are discovered to be enemy, detain them immediately!"

It's definitely not advisable to bring Nagato to the Hokage Building.

Although there are countless seals in the Hokage Building, especially in the offices, they were all set up by Ren himself, and the keys to activate them are all in Ren's hands.

If the situation were to change, without the protection of those seals, the Hokage Building might be completely destroyed.

Xuanyue, who was still leading Nagato towards the Hokage Building, noticed something on a billboard as they crossed an intersection, and his eyes flickered slightly.

Then he led Nagato towards an open area within the village.

Nagato frowned slightly as he watched the route gradually deviate from the Hokage Building.

Where are we going?

"Mr. Nagato, the Lord Hokage was planning the new area of the village and hasn't returned to the Hokage Building yet. After learning of your arrival, Mr. Nagato, the Lord Hokage waited for you there."

Upon hearing Nagato's question, Xuanyue immediately offered an explanation.

Upon hearing Nagato, Nagato frowned even more deeply, though her long hair concealed it from outsiders.

What displeased Nagato wasn't this minor incident, but rather Xuanyue himself, who had led the way.

For some reason, Nagato felt a sense of disgust the moment he saw Xuanyue.

Although I've never had a good impression of Konoha ninjas, this is the first time I've felt such disgust.

What made Nagato frown even more was the surge of disgust that came with Xuanyue's explanation.

Nagato thus clearly realized that the source of his disgust was his Rinnegan.

Ever since Nagato developed the [Limbo] technique, Rinnegan Nagato has been providing him with guidance from time to time.

Just as he absorbed the Tailed Beast Chakra before, so too does he feel disgust towards Xuanyue now.

Nagato took this guidance as a divine instruction, and well, to some extent, that's not entirely wrong.

To all beings in the Shinobi World, the Sage of Six Paths is like a god!

Upon arriving at a relatively open area, Nagato's brow furrowed deeper and deeper as he passed through each checkpoint.

Every Konoha Ninja he encountered in this area instilled in Nagato a deep, inexplicable disgust.

However, Nagato restrained himself and did not do anything out of line.

"Mr. Nagato, the Lord Hokage is inside. This is the best I can do for you!"

Xuanyue led Nagato to the front of a wooden house and stopped, then spoke.

Nodding, Nagato pushed the door open and entered.

The furnishings inside the house were extremely simple, consisting of only a tea table and a futon.

Behind the coffee table, a familiar figure was smiling at him.

But Nagato's pupils, hidden by her long hair, narrowed slightly as she coldly questioned the seated figure.

"Who are you? Where is Uchiha Yushu?"
