Inside the Akatsuki base.
Xuandou looked down at the restrained Konan, a faint smile rising at the corners of his mouth.
Now she could only let him do whatever he pleased.
"Turn over!"
He spoke calmly.
Konan, who had been lying facedown, stiffened. Then her body rolled over on its own, beyond her control, leaving her faceup.
She lay on her back on the cold floor, her limbs spread wide in an X, unable to move.
Her pale orange eyes brimmed with fury and humiliation as she glared at Xuandou.
Xuandou crouched down and examined her exquisitely beautiful face up close.
Even in such a wretched state, she was still breathtakingly beautiful.
Those tightly pressed lips, that stubborn gaze, that gently rising and falling chest...
I have to take this opportunity to subdue her with Kotoamatsukami!
He withdrew his gaze and quickly took the Mangekyō Dōjutsu Copy Card from inside his clothes, preparing to place it before Konan.
Just then, something unexpected happened!
Konan, who had been tightly restrained by the Five Binding Yin-Control Rings, instantly turned into a flurry of white paper!
The sheets scattered like snowflakes, covering the entire floor of the cell.
Xuandou's expression immediately darkened.

To think that not one of the four Konans was her real body!
He had thought he would be able to claim another woman today...
Hearing the footsteps drawing ever closer outside the door, Xuandou knew he could not stay any longer.
He was not afraid of the small fry outside.
With his current strength, he could kill however many came.
What he feared was Nagato, along with the masked Obito Uchiha behind the Akatsuki.
The Rinnegan and Kamui.
As he was now, he had no way to deal with either of them.
Even with the copied Kotoamatsukami
