Konan left.
Flapping her paper wings, she flew towards the Fire Empire.
Although she was filled with immense grief and endless reluctance at this moment.
She still left.
Because this was Nagato's final plea.
She had to live on for Nagato and Yahiko as well!
After Konan left.
Nagato relaxed completely!
He had a sense of resignation, quietly waiting for death.
Just then.
Madara's body suddenly moved.
He suddenly clenched his fist.
"This long-lost sense of reality!!"
"Have I finally been resurrected!"
"But, where are my Rinnegan?"
"Zetsu? Obito? Where are my Rinnegan?"
After Uchiha Madara woke up.
He shouted for a while.
"Lord Madara, your Rinnegan are still with Nagato!"
"We just forced him to use the Rinne Rebirth Jutsu to resurrect you; we haven't had time to take the Rinnegan back from him yet!"
Hearing Madara's call.
Zetsu immediately drilled out from under the floor again.
Answering Madara's question!
"Is that so? That kid Nagato is still here!!"
"Heh..."
Madara suddenly grinned.
Although he had no eyes at this moment, his perception was still very powerful.
Soon he perceived the existence of his Rinnegan.
And likewise perceived Nagato's existence.
"Nagato, long time no see!"
Madara grinned.
"You know me??"
Hearing Madara's words, Nagato, amidst his weakness, showed a trace of surprise.
"Of course! We met when you were very young. Your Rinnegan were a gift from me!"
Madara laughed.
"Otherwise, you wouldn't think that a mere Uzumaki clan member like you could awaken the Rinnegan, right?"
"So, it really was you manipulating my life from behind the scenes, Uchiha Madara!"
A flash of anger passed through Nagato's eyes.
Looking at the series of events.
How could he not understand that the person resurrected before him was the real Uchiha Madara?
Even that guy wearing the mask was just an impostor.
At the same time, he finally understood why Uchiha Shin possessed the Rinnegan.
Because the Rinnegan was basically evolved from the Uchiha clan's Sharingan. And his Rinnegan were just swapped by Madara.
"Correct. To prevent you from deviating from my plan, your life has always been manipulated by me!"
"From the death of your parents, to meeting Yahiko and Konan, and then to Yahiko's death, my shadow was more or less present in all of it!!"
Madara laughed frankly.
"Uchiha Madara, you bastard, you will die a miserable death!"
Hearing Madara's words, Nagato understood completely.
His life was a tragedy.
Destined from the very beginning.
"Die a miserable death??"
"Hahaha, for decades, except for Hashirama who could contend with me back then."
"Who in this world is my opponent now?"
"Who can make me die a miserable death?"
Madara laughed loudly.
"Hmph, Uchiha Madara, don't be arrogant. This era is long past the era you knew."
"There really is an opponent for you in this era. I'll be waiting for you to be defeated; I'll wait for you down below!"
After Nagato sneered.
He prepared to destroy his own eyes.
However, how could Madara let him have his wish?
Although Madara had neither Sharingan nor Rinnegan at this moment.
In that instant.
He still condensed a huge Susanoo.
And grabbed Nagato.
Making him unable to move.
Let alone destroy his own eyes.
Moreover, at this moment, Nagato was already running on fumes.
He couldn't even release a Shinra Tensei.
Naturally, he couldn't destroy Madara's Susanoo either.
"Kid, these are my eyes, don't be too insolent!"
Madara snorted coldly.
He grabbed Nagato and brought him closer.
Without saying a word.
Forcibly dug out Nagato's left eye.
Then, installed it directly into his own eye socket.
Madara blinked his eyelid.
Soon, the Rinnegan was fully connected with him.
Saying it was plug-and-play wasn't an exaggeration at all.
"Haven't seen you for years; didn't expect you, kid, to be tortured like this by the Rinnegan."
Looking at the emaciated and sickly Nagato, Madara couldn't help but sigh.
"Hmph, isn't all this thanks to you!"
Nagato cursed loudly.
"So, I will end your pain completely now!"
As Madara spoke, he dug out Nagato's other Rinnegan as well.
And installed it on himself.
After losing the Rinnegan.
Nagato breathed his last in less than five seconds.
"Zetsu, bury him properly. After all, he nurtured my eyes for so many years; even without merit, there was hard work!"
Madara threw Nagato's corpse in front of Zetsu and said.
"Understood!"
Zetsu responded.
Subsequently, a White Zetsu clone split from Zetsu's body.
That White Zetsu clone came to Nagato.
Wrapped Nagato's corpse directly within its body.
Then, sank into the floor.
To bury Nagato.
"Obito, are you alright?"
Madara looked at Obito.
"I'm fine."
Obito responded to Madara.
But he became sullen after Madara's resurrection.
"Hahaha, you did a good job, kid!!"
Madara didn't care about Obito's mood at this moment. Anyway, his mood was excellent!
"By the way, tell me, what did Nagato mean by those words just now?"
"What does it mean that this era is no longer the era I knew!"
"Is there really an opponent for me in this era?"
Madara looked at Obito and Zetsu respectively and asked with slight interest.
"Originally, we planned to wait until all the Tailed Beasts were collected before resurrecting you, but plans couldn't keep up with changes."
"This world is too crazy, and the speed of change is too fast. We had to resurrect you in advance."
"Nagato was right; this era is completely different from the past few decades, and the source of the change lies within our Uchiha!"
Obito said in a deep voice.
"Oh? Could it be that another genius has appeared in our Uchiha clan?"
Hearing this, Madara immediately became interested.
"Correct, his name is Uchiha Shin!"
Obito said.
"Did he awaken the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan??"
Uchiha Madara narrowed his eyes slightly.
"No, he awakened the Rinnegan!"
Obito said in a deep voice.
"Rinnegan??"
At this moment, even the unflappable Madara couldn't help but be greatly shocked!
"How old is he this year? Why haven't I heard of him in the future??"
Madara asked in shock.
"Sixteen years old this year! The year you died, he was still an eight-year-old child; it's normal that you don't know him!"
Obito said.
"Awakened the Rinnegan at sixteen??"
Madara couldn't help but widen his eyes.
Then he laughed loudly.
"Haha, truly a young genius! In terms of talent, I, Uchiha Madara, admit you are the strongest."
"However, such a talented young man should have had the reputation of a genius from a very young age!"
"Yet, I haven't heard of him. Zetsu, this is your dereliction of duty!"
After speaking, Madara glanced at Zetsu.
"Lord Madara, I am wronged!"
"Uchiha Shin was indeed a genius when he was young, but he wasn't as famous as Shisui, who was two years older than him!"
"You didn't even take Shisui seriously."
"Naturally, you wouldn't take other geniuses seriously either."
"Uchiha Shin's true transformation happened this year!"
"From the night of the genocide to now, in just ten short months, he first awakened the Mangekyo Sharingan, then evolved the Eternal Mangekyo Sharingan, and only recently evolved the Rinnegan!"
"Compared to his achievements this year, his past dozen years seemed too mediocre."
After being named and criticized by Madara.
Zetsu hurriedly explained and shifted the blame!
