Chapter 45: The Script I

........

"What are we doing? Are we on a vacation!? I love vocations!" White Zetsu had to wonder.

"Just observing," Isaac responded as he picked up a violet flower, vibrant with life due to the warmth of the sun, "What do you think?" He then asked Black Zetsu.

The flower might've been vibrant, but not for long. Winter had passed, and so did Summer, and now it was time for Fall. That's how long Isaac spent walking the World.

"Nothing we don't already know," Black Zetsu calmly responded, "Corruption and Exploitation everywhere. That's why we have to go through with our plans."

"You're right," Isaac nodded, still eyeing Black Zetsu. The latter doesn't like the way Isaac looks at him very much, it's kind of weird.

That's especially so after seeing the change in Isaac for the past months as if he was losing his mind. 

Isaac seemed to have become much happier, sometimes laughing to himself, and often whispering some strange things under his breath while eyeing him.

It felt to Black Zetsu as if Isaac's mind was thoroughly broken, but at least he still had the cognitive functions to complete the plan.

Isaac nodded before instructing, "I need you to keep watch over Danzo."

"Revenge?" Black Zetsu wasn't too surprised. What surprised him most was Isaac only starting to target him after so long.

"Something like that," Isaac nodded, "I will go and make contact with Nagato. I heard he had just experienced quite the tragedy."

"The perfect time to bring him to our side," Black Zetsu nodded as he split up from White Zetsu, then he dove into the ground, leaving behind a few words, "When the opportunity to strike shows itself, I will inform you."

"Ohh, I was so used to Black Zetsu being in me," White Zetsu couldn't help but comment, "I am going to miss it a bit, not gonna lie!"

"Huh," Isaac eyed White Zetsu strangely, a bit speechless, 'Just how does this thing's brain work? Well, whatever, I've observed Black Zetsu enough, and now that I sent him away, I can go about things more freely.'

That he did as he made his way to Amegakure, The Village Hidden by Rain. 

The village's location lies between three of the Five Great Shinobi Countries, leading to it being frequently served as a battleground during the various ninja wars, making most of its population war refugees. 

The Village of Rain thus has adopted a heavy isolationist policy, leading to the village's defenses being abnormally impenetrable.

The target of Isaac's visit is of course Nagato, someone Madara Uchiha had secretly transplanted his Rinnegan into so that he could revive him when the time came.

Indeed, Rinnegan is capable of such an act and much more. That's why Nagato is a vital point of the plan.

Nagato has quite the interesting personality, forged through extreme life experiences, mostly due to war.

Nagato lived with his parents on the outskirts of Amegakure when he was very young.

Then the first catastrophe took place, due to the Second Shinobi World War where Nagato and his parents took shelter in their home to avoid the fighting going on around them.

Only, trouble found them due to the Village of Rain being the warzone chosen by the other villages.

Through a series of accidents, two Konoha Shinobi ended up killing his parents. It might be somewhat of an accident, but that wouldn't matter to the young Nagato.

Thus, overcome with grief, Nagato used Madara's Rinnegan for the first time to kill them and avenge his parents.

Then he was all alone, forced to wander in search of food and shelter, leading him to meet two kindred souls who helped him when he needed help the most.

The two were Konan and Yahiko, orphans like himself. They banded together, acquired food to survive through any means, and shared dreams of a future where they were in charge and could use their power to eliminate war.

Eventually, after learning under one of Konoha's Sanin, Jiraya, the three formed an organization they called Akatsuki, with Yahiko as its leader, and began advocating an end to war. 

Their message proved popular and they gathered many followers, thus why their leader, Yahiko; ended up dead. 

Throughout their quest for peace, Akatsuki's ranks swelled and became known throughout Amegakure, so much so that Hanzō of the Salamander, the village's leader, began to feel Akatsuki threatened his rule.

Therefore, things turned out how they did even without Madara, Isaac, or Black Zetsu's interference.

Isaac does remember though that in the story, Obito somewhat interfered in the incident, making sure Yahiko ends up dead.

However, even without any interference, he still ended up dead. Too many people want him dead after all, including Shimura Danzo.

Yet, the Akatsuki still lived for both Nagato and Konan were still alive, hidden somewhere in the outstriks of the Village of Rain.

Nagato was there, hidden underground, his face pale, and his body frail. It seems that the battle against Hanzo left him in a very bad state, though most of it seems to be using Rinnegan without being its true owner.

Nagato was left mostly immobile though two strange orange-haired individuals stood before him, both wearing Akatsuki's uniform.

The two looked strange due to the black cylinders implanted in their faces. The strangest thing is the identity of one of them, none other than the supposedly dead Yahiko.

Before them was another body, the dead body of a bald individual which they were in the process of implanting it with a set of black cylinders.

Nagato, seemingly, allowed them to do their things, his eyes closed as if asleep... Until he had to open his eyes.

Nagato's eyes, the Rinnegan had concentric circles covering the pale eyeballs. 

They were faced with equally strange eyeballs, portraying a cosmic vortex, with swirling galaxies and nebulae spiraling inward towards a central singularity. 

Stars shimmer and flicker within their depths, casting a soft, ethereal glow that illuminates the darkness of space. 

The colors shift and blend seamlessly, from deep indigo to radiant turquoise, as if reflecting the infinite expanse of the universe itself.

That was Isaac's Mangekyo Sharingan, becoming even more perfect and strange with the passing of time.

Isaac found Nagato though he found himself faced not with one set of Rinnegan, but three.

Nagato's eyes were those of the Rinnegan, and so were Yahiko. Even the other orange-haired individual had the same eyes.

And they were quick to act, standing before Isaac's way, not allowing him to take even a step forward towards the frail Nagato.

The Rinnegan is reputed as the most exalted eye amongst the Three Great Dōjutsu, the others being the Sharingan and the Byakugan. 

It is said that in times of disorder, one who wields the Rinnegan is sent down from the heavens to become either a God of Creation who will calm the world or a God of Destruction who will reduce everything to nothingness.

Yet even with such eyes, Nagato found himself not only wary but also extremely nervous for the uninvited intruder had managed to avoid his senses.
