Naruto: Sasuke Reborn – No Clan Massacre! No Injustice！

Konan left with the bodies of Nagato and Yahiko. She was going back to their hometown, the place where the three of them first met, to give them a proper burial...

"What's with the long face?"

Sasuke caught a glimpse of Naruto looking down in the dumps, like the world was ending, and asked.

"I just think that maybe everyone just has different beliefs. Nagato might have just been deceived by Madara Uchiha. Why did he have to end up like this?"

"He's got his own sins to pay for. For years, the Akatsuki Organization has been secretly manipulating Kiri. Although it made the village stronger, the wars they've sparked and the countless people assassinated by the Akatsuki are beyond count. Even now, there's still no peace within Kiri. Nagato must bear some of the responsibility."

"That guy must have been in a lot of pain. Every day for him was probably torture. His friends left him, and his beliefs crumbled in an instant. That's why Madara Uchiha found a loophole in him."

"Even so, he had to be strong and stay clear - headed. As the leader of the Akatsuki Organization and the one who survived, he should have lived each day well for the sake of the dead..."

"These nice words are easy to say but hard to do. If I were Nagato and my friends left me, maybe I'd..."

Naruto looked up at Sasuke. If Sasuke died at the hands of an enemy, as his friend, would he be able to stay calm at that time?

The answer was no.

So, putting himself in Nagato's shoes, he could better understand what Nagato had done. He was just being used by someone with ill - intentions.

"Naruto, don't get caught up in this meaningless entanglement. You're not Nagato, and you won't watch your companions die right in front of you. Aren't you going to be the future Hokage? It's not okay to show weakness at a time like this."

Sasuke gave a gentle punch to Naruto's chest, reminding him to cheer up and not get caught up in this meaningless mess.

"Sasuke?!"

Naruto looked up, his eyes filled with a bit of delight. Sasuke stepped forward boldly, his lean body bathed in the sunlight. He turned back and half - joked,

"The Akatsuki's attack left the village buildings in a mess. After the war, the village needs to be rebuilt. We need to figure out Madara Uchiha's real purpose and the future direction of development. You need to witness all these. If you keep wallowing in sadness, I'll leave you behind."

After saying that, he didn't wait for Naruto to respond and strode forward. Naruto was extremely shocked and angry, clenching his fists so tightly that his knuckles cracked.

What a joke! This bastard left him once before, and now he's making such a joke. Looking at Sasuke striding straight ahead, a look of resentment flashed across Naruto's eyes.

Just you wait! Someday, he'll...

..............

The two of them walked to Konoha Village. Looking at the damaged buildings and many people trapped under the rubble waiting for rescue, Naruto's heart ached. Yeah, although Nagato and the others were pitiful, the villagers of Konoha were just as pitiful.

"You're back. So, did you track down the mastermind?"

"Teacher Kakashi, we'll explain this to you when we get back!"

The three of them went to the Hokage's office together and found that many people had already gathered there.

"What's going on exactly?"

"Granny Tsunade, how is the Perverted Hermit?"

"Although he was seriously injured, he has been saved. He's out of danger now. Didn't you go to find their leader, Pain? Where is he?"

Hearing that the Perverted Hermit was okay, Naruto let out a sigh of relief. Fortunately, they had gone in time.

"Regarding this matter, Pain from the Akatsuki organization is dead."

"Dead?"

Tsunade placed her hands on the desk and frowned slightly.

"I need to see the person alive or the body dead. You just say he's dead. Where's the body now?"

"His body was taken by..."

"His body was taken by Madara Uchiha!"

"What?"

When everyone heard this name, they couldn't help opening their mouths wide and looking at Sasuke in disbelief. Naruto also turned to look, and the shock in his eyes couldn't be hidden at all. But then, after figuring it out, he also chimed in and said,

"We were in a fierce battle with Pain and had the upper hand. We delivered a fatal blow to him. We were planning to bring the body back to Konoha, but unexpectedly, Madara Uchiha used his space-time ninjutsu to intercept Pain's body halfway."

"Are you certain about that?!"

Naruto's words shocked everyone present. Why did Madara Uchiha take Pain's body? What kind of secret was hidden behind this act?

"I guess it's for the Rinnegan!"

"Legend has it that the Rinnegan is a special Kekkei Genkai that the Sage of Six Paths once possessed. Madara Uchiha has ulterior motives. It's not surprising that he would do this to obtain the power of the Rinnegan. Moreover, Pain's Rinnegan originally belonged to Madara Uchiha!"

"What?!"

"I've said before that after Madara Uchiha fought against the First Hokage, he bit off a piece of the First Hokage's flesh. When the powers of the Uchiha and Senju are combined, the power of the Sage of Six Paths can be awakened. He had already awakened the Rinnegan at that time, but for some reason, he had to place the Rinnegan in someone else's body. Now that Pain is dead, that's why he rushed here to retrieve it!"

Listening to Sasuke's words, everyone was in an uproar. Naruto was also super curious. Didn't they already get the Rinnegan back? Why didn't they tell everyone then?

"Impossible. If it's really like what you said, can an ordinary ninja control something as powerful as the Rinnegan?"

"Well, of course an ordinary person can't. So he chose the leader of the Akatsuki. The person who can manage and control the S-rank defected ninjas from various countries is definitely not an ordinary ninja. Moreover, our Uchiha clan's Sharingan has been used to its fullest by Kakashi. Isn't it also quite normal?"

Kakashi was suddenly thrown into the conversation. Receiving the looks from everyone, he looked innocent and was desperately shouting in his heart, What does all this have to do with him?

...

"Orochimaru, what's your opinion on this matter? We're considered to be in cooperation now. I'd like to hear your thoughts."

"Isn't the fact already obvious?"

Orochimaru looked at Tsunade with a smile. It really surprised Orochimaru that she was so direct.

"Just as Sasuke said, Madara Uchiha must be pulling the strings behind this small organization. He secretly supported Pain to become the leader and has his own plans in the shadows!"

Tsunade fell silent. At this moment, she didn't know what kind of expression to use to face what was about to happen next. She always had a feeling that A gust of wind fills the building before the mountain rain arrives.
