Finally

In Amegakure, atop the village's tallest tower, Nagato, Konan, and Naruto sat together, deep in discussion.

"It seems everything is unfolding just as you envisioned, Naruto. What's our next move?" Konan inquired.

Only the two of them truly understood Naruto's master plan and were unwavering in their support. They believed in Naruto's vision, inspired by his words: "Achieving world peace demands not just heroes, but also those willing to play the villain."

Moreover, Naruto had pledged that no matter the tragedy of the final battle or the toll it took, he would employ the Rinnegan's power to reset the world with the Samsara of Heavenly Life Technique, ensuring a fresh start where the pain of conflict would instill a deeper appreciation for peace.

This philosophy resonated with Nagato and Konan, cementing their trust in Naruto.

Without hesitation, Naruto removed a ring and declared, "I've always intended to operate from the shadows. So, let Pain lead Akatsuki. As for me, I'll seek out a secluded place for training. Nagato, you'll handle matters of finance."

"Keep them busy," Naruto continued. "Whether it's tasks for Rain Shinobi Village, personal endeavors, or maintaining Akatsuki's operations, money is essential."

"And we happen to have a group of skilled individuals," Naruto added with a mischievous grin. "It'd be a waste not to leverage them, especially Kakuzu, the money-making maestro."

Naruto chuckled, knowing his past exploits with Kakuzu had drained the man's coffers considerably. He couldn't help but feel a twinge of pity for what lay ahead for Kakuzu.

"Why not stay here and focus on your training?" Konan interjected suddenly. "Nagato and I can ensure you're undisturbed, and we'll offer any assistance you require. If you need a sparring partner, Pain can step in."

Nagato looked at Konan incredulously. Let's not forget, he thought, that Pain is none other than the reanimated Yahiko.

Konan seemed unfazed by the implications, showing her unwavering support for Naruto's endeavors.

But even Nagato sent an invitation to Naruto: "I will arrange a special area for you, so you can practice here with peace of mind.

Naruto is also a little moved. His next practice is definitely not that simple. Whether it is Wood Style, Sage Mode, or the power of Six Paths, it is not something that can be disturbed and discovered by outsiders.

And it is really difficult to find a suitable place without knowing the location of the secret realm where the Summoning beasts such as Mount Myōboku live.

He even planned to capture a small country if he couldn't do it. For example, in the country of Snow, there are only three ninjas in that country? It's just a joke.

In fact, the military strength of many small countries is not worth mentioning at all. If it were not for the contest between the five big countries and the five big Ninja villages, there would be no room for those small countries to survive.

But if you stay here, Rain Shinobi Village is guarded by Nagato and Konan. Outsiders can't come in easily, and he can ask them for help if he needs it, and he can pay attention to the situation of Akatsuki at any time.

Maybe this is the best choice?

Thinking of this, Naruto finally nodded and agreed: "Then bother sister and brother.

In fact, this title is completely nonsense, after all, he is not yet a disciple of Jiraiya, in fact, he has not seen Jiraiya.

But the memories he shared at the beginning were all original plots, so Nagato and Konan also recognized the relationship between the three.

Jiraiya said, when did I have an additional disciple, why didn't I know?

It's a mess.

In this way, Naruto chose to stay in Rain Shinobi Village.

And there is a reason why Konan cares about him so much, because Konan may already think that Naruto will bring peace to the Ninja world, right?

They are such people. In the original book, after believing that Naruto is the hope of peace, Nagato and Konan both gave their lives and did not hesitate.

Not to mention this.

So everything was in accordance with Naruto's plan, and Akatsuki had to temporarily stop all activities and dormant again.

However, in order to make money, the Akatsuki organization began to be paid attention to by the Ninja. That was because Akatsuki began to take over missions from other countries in order to make money. Rebel who hunts them down and so on.

Sasori of the red sand even once destroyed a small country with his own hands. It was cruel.

During this time, there were some changes in personnel. One day, Orochimaru unexpectedly attacked Uchiha Itachi, resulting in a failed assassination attempt.

In response, Gu.

After this incident, Orochimaru departed from the Akatsuki organization, his whereabouts unknown.

In reality, everyone within Akatsuki was aware that Orochimaru had returned to his Otonin Village in Tanokuni.

However, they saw no need to pursue him.

Neither Naruto nor Nagato issued orders to hunt down Orochimaru, and the others were too indifferent to intervene.

Subsequently, new members joined, namely Deidara and Hidan, and Akatsuki finally reached an agreement with the original members.

The teams took shape: Pain and Konan formed one team, Uchiha Itachi partnered with Hoshigaki Kisame, Sasori rejoined with Deidara to form an art duo, Kakuzu teamed up with Hidan as the undead duo, each with their own responsibilities, including intelligence gathering.

Meanwhile, Naruto began a new phase of training.

This time, when activating the gravitational magnetic field to envelop his body for assistance in practice, he immediately increased the gravity to fifty times its normal level.

Previously, he had only endured thirty times gravity, so this sudden increase was a significant leap. Initially, he struggled to even lift his foot under the immense pressure.

However, Naruto gritted his teeth and persisted. Enduring hardship was second nature to him.

Initially, he could only take slow steps, but gradually regained normal mobility, eventually moving with the agility of a seasoned ninja. He revisited exercises from his childhood and made remarkable progress in less than a month.

Furthermore, Naruto utilized the Shadow Clone Technique to its utmost, mastering multiple variations and summoning up to 5,000 clones at once.

With his main focus on physical training, he delegated the development of Wood Style ninjutsu, exploration of Sage Mode, and other experiential training to his Shadow Clones.

He even had Shadow Clones take over his need for sleep, maintaining 24 clones to rest around the clock. Naruto would dispel one clone every hour to remain energized, while physical fatigue was counteracted by the enhancement of his exercise regimen, Nine Tails Chakra, Ashura Chakra, and the power of Six Paths.

He was driven, determined to excel.
