  "Shin-nii, why are you asking about the Akatsuki? Is there something wrong with them?"

  Konan tilted her head, looking at Shin in fusion.

  Initially, she had assumed that Shin's visit to the Land of Rain was because of the ongoing Shinobi World War. But judging from his as, that didn't seem to be the case.

  "I just find them iing. Thought I'd check them out."

  Shin smiled.

  "They want t peace to the world, huh? A noble dream, sure—but I don't think they'll ever achieve it."

  Konan wasn't as naive as her inal terpart at this point iimeline. Having followed Shin for so long, she had seen too much to believe in childish ideals.

  The Akatsuki's goal was to ge the nations—to build a bridge of uandiween people and fe a path to world peace.

  A hought, but utterly impossible. The tangled web of human is was far too plex. The dream itself was too naive.

  Of course, dreams were just that—dreams. No matter how unrealistic, people were free to imagine whatever they wanted.

  "Let's meet their leader first."

  Shin had no real i in Yahiko's ideals. The reason he came here was for Uzumaki Nagato's Rinnegan. His goal was to replicate the Rinnegan.

  He had actually wao do this for a long time. However, during his trip to the Moon, he had replicated the Tenseigan instead. Uhe influence of the Tenseigan, his own Rinnegan awakened naturally—and in the process, his Rinnegan and Tenseigan fused together.

  Now, he possessed the Six-Tomoe Rienseigan, far strohan an ordinary Rinnegan.

  Even so, he still wao Replicate the Rinnegan.

  Nagato had never been able to wield its full power. After all, those weren't his inal eyes—they were Uchiha Madara's. His Uzumaki body gave him the stamina to use them, but he couldn't bring out their true potential.

  For example, Limbo: Border Jail—one of the Rinnegan's most powerful Dōjutsu. Nagato had never been able to use it.

  Limbo allowed the user to create invisible shadow es that could attack or blo their behalf. With only one Rinnegan, Madara could create a single shadow. But with both, that number increased to four.

  These Limbo es were pletely uable to ordinary people. Only someoh a Rinnegan could see them, and only those who had mastered Six Paths Senjutsu could sehem.

  And they were immuo all attacks except those imbued with Six Paths power.

  This ability alone made the Rinnegan worth replig.

  Moreover, Shin he Rinnegan's Ocur energy.

  —

  Finding Yahiko, the Akatsuki leader wasn't difficult.

  Right now, the anization was highly active, frequently helping refugees and aiding the wounded.

  Simply asking a few people who had been assisted by the Akatsuki was enough to learn their location.

  Of course, Shin's real target wasn't Yahiko—it was Nagato.

  But sinagato never left Yahiko's side, finding Yahiko meant finding Nagato.

  —

  After some searg, they finally located the Akatsuki's base.

  The group had dozens of members at this stage, But pared to the future Akatsuki, whose members were all S-rank missing-nin, the current members were mostly small fry.

  The only real threats were Yahiko and Nagato.

  Yahiko had the strength of ae Jōnin, while Nagato was already he level of a Kage.

  And if Nagato went all out with his Rinnegan? Even a Kage-level oppo would have no choice but to run for their life.

  —

  Crack!

  A branapped.

  The Akatsuki members, who had beeing, immediately tensed, gripping their kunai as they turoward the sound.

  Shin emerged from the shadows, walking forward at a leisurely pace, Konan by his side.

  Under his feet, dry twigs snapped with every step, eg in the silent night.

  "Who are you?"

  Yahiko's expression hardened, his grip tightening around his on.

  Nagato stood behind him, his Rinnegan hiddeh his hair, staring ily at Shin.

  "Shin-nii, look at his hair—it's just like yours! He must be an Uzumaki tht?"

  Konan's eyes widened in surprise as she looked at Nagato.

  Shin nodded. Nagato was indeed an Uzumaki. Otherwise, Madara wouldn't have chosen him.

  Only the Uzumaki's strong life ford Chakra could withstand the ption of using the Rinnegan.

  Anyone else? Even if they obtaihe eyes, they wouldn't be able to use them properly.

  "Nagato? He's your sman? You have retives?" Yahiko rexed slightly.

  Of course, he didn't drop his guard entirely—he wasn't that naive.

  Nagato shook his head. He didn't reize Shin and didn't know he had any other retives. But his mother's maiden name was indeed Uzumaki.

  —

  "System, use the Divine Replication Card. Copy all the abilities of the Rinnegan."

  Shin silently issued the and.

  He recalled that when he had entered Uchiha Madara long ago, he had attempted to replicate his Rinnegan—but the System had refused, stating that Madara's Rinnegan had already been transpnted.

  But now, fag Uzumaki Nagato, the System had no trouble copying it.

  A surge of awe-inspiring ocur power flowed through Shin's eyes, leaving them with a cool, refreshing crity as an immense force erupted forth.

  Instantly, every member of the Akatsuki—including Yahiko and Nagato—colpsed unscious.

  The sheer power radiating from Shin had khem out on the spot.

  Konan, standing beside him, was pletely ued—Shin had subsciously shielded her from harm.

  "Shin-nii, your eyes… there are three more tomoe in them!"

  Konan said in surprise.

  Each of Shin's eyes had gaihree additional tomoe.

  inally, he possessed the Six-Tomoe Rienseigan—now, they had evolved into the omoe Rienseigan.

  Shin smiled.

  "Just as I expected."

  His goal in replig the Rinnegan wasn't just to obtain Limbo: Border Jail.

  He had also wao see if he could push his Six-Tomoe Rienseigan to the stage.

  Of course, this was just an experiment.

  There was no guarahat replig the Rinnegan would trigger an Evolution. If it failed, Shin wouldn't have lost anything—he would still gain Limbo: Border Jail as a sotion prize.

  But to his delight—it worked.

  His ocur power and chakra had soared to a whole new level.

  —

  "It's stronger now, but… it's not as good-looking."

  Shied an ice mirror with Ice Release and examined his omoe Rienseigan.

  After a moment, he closed his eyes.

  Five seds ter, he reopehem—the tomoe had vanished.

  "I think this looks better. What do you think, Konan?" Shin asked.

  "I agree."

  Konan he Rienseigan without the tomoe looked better.

  "Then I'll keep it this way."

  Though his eyes noeared like a normal Rienseigah the surface, they were still the omoe Rienseigan—only the tomoe had been hidden.
