  ????

  Shin cast a final g the unscious figures of Yahiko and Nagato before turning to leave with Konan.

  "We're just leaving like this?"

  Konan looked at Shin in fusion. They had gohrough the trouble of finding the Akatsuki, but now they were leaving without doing anything? It didn't make sense.

  "Our business here is done, Konan. Now, we head to the battlefield."

  The Rinnegan had been successfully copied, and his Six-Tomoe Rienseigan had evolved into the omoe Rienseigan. His true objective had been aplished.

  As they departed, Shin's gaze flickered toward an ordinary-looking tree in the distance.

  That was where White Zetsu was hiding.

  Shin wasn't surprised. Nagato was too important to Madara. He was the key to Madara's revival pn. Of course Madara would keep a close eye on him.

  Even with the Rinnegan, Nagato had never noticed White Zetsu watg him. The creature's Mayfly Teique made him practically uable.

  White Zetsu might not have been strong, but when it came to hiding, there were few who could match him.

  Once Shin and Konan were out of sight, White Zetsu emerged from the ground and approached Nagato, cheg his dition.

  Nagato was fine—just unscious. Still, White Zetsu had to report baadara.

  It wasn't long before the message reached him.

  ....

  "Uzumaki Shio see that brat?"

  Madara's killing i fred. He immediately thought Shin was after his Rinnegan.

  "Madara-sama, Uzumaki Shin didn't y a hand on Nagato's Rinnegan," White Zetsu reported.

  "I don't know what his motive is, but if he dares touch my Rinnegan, I'll send him to the Pure Land myself."

  A flicker of crimson light fshed in Madara's eyes. In the dimly lit underground chamber, the eerie glow made him look even more terrifying.

  If anyone else had bee, they would have been scared half to death.

  "White Zetsu, keep an eye on that brat. If Uzumaki Shin approaches him again, inform me immediately."

  "Uood, Madara-sama."

  White Zetsu melted bato the ground and disappeared.

  ....

  In the Land of Raihe battlefield where Konoha and Suna were locked in bat, Shin and Konan arrived at a vantage point overlooking the chaos.

  "Didn't expect the war to be this intense… Way worse than the Sed Shinobi War."

  Shin stood at a distance, watg as shinobi cshed in a flurry of kunai, shuriken, and jutsu. Explosioed across the battlefield.

  It almost felt like watg a grand battle se from a movie—except far more real.

  "Shin-nii, you even see what's happening from this distance?"

  Konan looked up at him, frowning. From where they stood, the battlefield was just a blur of movement. She could only make out small, shadowy figures—definitely not enough to dis details.

  "Of course."

  Shin chuckled. With his omoe Rienseigan, seeing through the chaos was effortless.

  The battlefield lit between Konoha and Suna. On Konoha's side, Jiraiya was leading the charge as the supreme ander.

  By now, Jiraiya had fully grown into his Kage-level strength, more than capable of holding his own.

  He had definitely tracted the toads of Mount Myōboku, though Shin wasn't sure if he had already mastered Sage Mode at this point.

  Aside from Jiraiya, there was also his student—Namikaze Minato.

  Minato had already made a name for himself. Thanks to the Flying Thunder God Teique, he was an absolute mena the battlefield. Most Jōnin couldn't even put up a fight against him.

  Right now, Minato was one of Konoha's Twies—the other being Uzumaki Kai.

  Even Shin was a little surprised by Kai's progress. He never expected him to grow strong enough to stand alongside Minato.

  "Konan, go ahead."

  Shin turo her with a small smirk.

  "???"

  Konan tilted her head, utterly fused.

  "Go have some fun. Show these shinobi what you're made of."

  Shin ruffled her hair.

  Konan's cheeks flushed slightly. She wasn't a child anymore—why was he still treating her like one?

  Still, despite her thoughts, she couldn't help but feel happy.

  "Which vilge should I attack?" Konan asked.

  "It doesn't matter. Just remember they're all your enemies now."

  It made no difference whether she struck Konoha or Suna. What mattered was using this battle to sharpen her skills.

  To Shin, both Konoha and Suna were just stepping stones for Konan.

  "I uand."

  Konan nodded and used Dance of the Shikigami, the foundation of her Paper Ninjutsu.

  She sprouted wings made of paper and flew towards the battlefield. Shin stayed behind and watched.

  Of course, if Konan ever found herself in real danger, he would step in immediately. But he doubted she would need help. She wasn't just a Paper Ninjutsu user.

  ....

  "Paper Shuriken!"

  As Konan flew over the battlefield, she hurled a barrage of razor-sharp paper shuriken.

  Though they were made of paper, they were just as lethal as steel.

  The shuriken pierced through several enemy shinobi—before detonating on impact.

  Because each shuriken tained explosive tags, the moment they struck, violent explosioed across the battlefield.

  Caught in the sudden bst, several Konoha and Suna niorn apart, their bodies reduced t shreds.

  "What the hell?! Who is that?!"

  Both Konoha and Suna shinobi sheir heads upward, their gazes log onto the airborne figure.

  "Water Release: Water Bullet Teique"

  Konan formed another set of seals, eling chakra into her hands before firing a volley of high-speed water bullets.

  Any Shinobi hit by these would be either killed or severely ihis owerful Water Release Jutsu developed by Tobirama Senju.

  "Damn it! Who the hell is that woman?!"

  Chaos spread across the battlefield.

  "Wait… Is that Konan?!"

  Jiraiya, who was fighting Rasa, the Fourth Kazekage, retreated and looked up at the flying figure, his expression turning grim.

  Jiraiya had met Konan when she was still a child—he reized her instantly.

  But he didn't know that in the inal timeline, Konan was supposed to have been his student. Because of Shin, everything had ged.

  "If Konan is here… then that means Uzumaki Shin is nearby."

  Jiraiya's eyes flickered across the battlefield, sing for any sign of Shin.

  Konan wasn't the problem.

  The real threat was Uzumaki Shin.

  Jiraiya knew all too well—if Shin had joihis war, Konoha was in serious trouble.

  Even if he wasn't on Suna's side, his presence alone could shift the bance of power.
