Chapter 111: A God in Distress

"Nagato!"

Konan screamed in fear, her face pale with worry as she pulled out a handkerchief to wipe the blood from the corner of Nagato's mouth.

"Nagato, please stop."

As she wiped away the blood, Konan's hands trembled uncontrollably, as if her heart was being cut with a knife.

Nagato was now her only emotional support. If something happened to him, Konan feared she would lose her will to live.

"Impossible!"

"This is impossible!"

"This can't be happening!"

"How could this all happen!"

"I am a god!"

"I have the Rinnegan!"

Nagato roared, almost losing his mind, as Ryujiro's slash destroyed the black sphere, breaking his last line of defense.

Planetary Devastation was undoubtedly one of Nagato's strongest techniques.

If even that couldn't do anything to Ryujiro, he had no idea what could.

His power seemed insignificant in front of this man.

Seeing the dull eyes of Deva Path, Ryujiro's lips curled into a sneer.

"Is it already over?"

"It seems I overestimated you."

"A coward will always be a coward. When your power is defeated, you reveal your true self."

Ryujiro's words provoked Nagato.

Pain's face twisted in a roar: "What do you understand!"

 "You know nothing!"

Pain's face contorted in rage.

The pain of losing his best friend, the pain of Konoha destroying his home, Konoha ninja and those so-called great nations never cared about the harm they caused other villages and countries.

He hated them!

He hated the five great nations and this hypocritical world.

At this moment, Obito appeared in the treehouse.

Obito in his deep voice, said, "Nagato, stop for now."

"You cannot overuse your power anymore."

"We have found a way to deal with Ryujiro. Call back all the paths."

A way to deal with Ryujiro?

"Are you sure?"

Nagato asked in a hoarse voice.

Obito was silent for a moment, then nodded.

He wasn't sure what tricks Danzo had, but at this point, there was no other choice but to trust him.

And even if the plan to invade Konoha and capture the Nine-Tails failed, it wouldn't significantly impact Obito's plans.

He had other plans to disrupt the entire shinobi world.

As for Nagato's life, it didn't matter much to Obito.

In the end, Nagato was just a pawn with higher utility value than others, his life or death didn't matter much.

A way to deal with Ryujiro…

Nagato gritted his teeth.

At this moment, Deva Path Pain, with his cold gaze fixed on Ryujiro, said.

"We will meet again."

In a flash, a huge cloud of white smoke enveloped the area, and the bodies of Naraka Path and the other summoned beasts also disappeared without a trace.

Meet again…

You want to invade Konoha?

Let's see what you've got to deal with me.

However… it's time for his organization to be known in the ninja world.

A smile curved at the corner of Ryujiro's mouth.

Kimimaro approached and respectfully called out.

"Ryujiro-sama."

"Hmm."

"You've mastered your power well. It's impressive how quickly you adapted to the spiritual pressure."

Ryujiro looked at Kimimaro with satisfaction.

"It's all thanks to the power you gave me, Ryujiro-sama," Kimimaro said respectfully, bowing his head.

Ryujiro glanced at Orochimaru, as well as the stunned Gaara and Sasuke.

He looked at Gaara and said slowly, "It's time for you to leave as well."

Huh?

Gaara was momentarily taken aback.

Let him go?

"I can leave now?" Gaara asked excitedly.

"Hmm."

"But…"

"Don't forget who you are and be careful not to die."

Um...

Gaara fell silent. The battle just now hadn't visually shocked him.

And Pain's strength seemed ordinary, just that his abilities were strange.

However, this was all Gaara's personal assessment.

Just as Gaara was about to leave Ryujiro gave a mission to him.

"I want you to take control of Sunagakure."

"Become the Kazekage of Sand village."

Huh?!

Gaara was even more bewildered.

He left Sunagakure to avoid being bound by the title of Kazekage, which involved managing village affairs.

Besides, Gaara didn't really have any good feelings about the village.

"I know you don't want to, but this is temporary."

"When I unify the shinobi world, there won't be Five Great Shinobi Villages or Five Great Nations anymore."

Ryujiro's tone was calm.

But his words struck Gaara and Sasuke like a thunderclap, leaving them stunned and speechless.

Unify the shinobi world?

Was Ryujiro serious?

Did he really intend to unify the entire shinobi world?

Even Orochimaru hadn't anticipated that Ryujiro had such ambitions.

Unifying the shinobi world was no easy feat, but if it were Ryujiro, it might be possible.

The shinobi world was too fragmented and division of power among villages was too severe, which was why wars had erupted repeatedly throughout history.

The Five Great Nations were independent of each other, though there was some trade between them, they didn't trust each other.

Especially the Land of Fire, which was often the target of other great nations during the ninja wars.

Their ambitions to devour the Land of Fire had never waned.

"Tsk tsk, Ryujiro-kun."

"Who would have thought you harbored such ambitions," Orochimaru said with a smile.

"The unification of the shinobi world is inevitable. To achieve permanent peace and freedom, the ninja world must be unified."

Ryujiro said calmly.

Gaara fell silent after hearing Ryujiro's words. Unify the entire ninja world, huh.

Quite the bold vision.

This was unprecedented.

"Alright, I agree," Gaara nodded.

.....

After entering the base, Ryujiro was somewhat surprised by Orochimaru's choice of sacrifices.

Though the appearance differed from what Ryujiro knew, it was undoubtedly Uchiha Shin.

However, Shin no longer worshipped Itachi.

He was simply called Shin.

His body bore the marks of many of Orochimaru's experiments.

The Sharingan had yet to be transplanted into his body.

"Let's begin, Orochimaru," Ryujiro said after a brief surprise, quickly regaining his composure.

Shin's eyes were vacant, clearly under Genjutsu.

Shin donned the Shinigami mask, and the next moment, a vast chakra formed a terrifying Shinigami.

The Shinigami slashed its own abdomen, causing a gush of blood from Shin's waist.

Orochimaru's sealed hands, and along with the First, Second, Third, and Fourth Hokage, all emerged from the Shinigami's seal.

"Wow!"

Shin vomited a large amount of blood, regaining consciousness.

"Lord Orochimaru, why…"

Shin weakly raised his hand, but soon it lost strength and fell, his life fading away.

"They're back."

Orochimaru felt the power in his hands and smiled with joy.

At this moment, Ryujiro's gaze fell on the Shinigami.

As expected, the Shinigami, although a chakra construct, also had a soul.

Then…

A black spiritual energy enveloped the Shinigami, making it roar madly as if it had lost its mind.

The Hollowification had begun!
