Chapter 181 » Konan's Desperate Quest for Truth! Danzo the Scapegoat King!
"Since it's your first time, I can give you answers to two questions."
After an extremely intense day, Konan was now completely exhausted, her body experiencing shocks of pleasure with every movement. She was certain that if she tried to stand up now, she would collapse from weakness.
This was the result of the intense battle between her and Yusuke!
To be honest, she was willing to sacrifice everything to know the truth. She had already gone to such lengths. After all, besides herself, she had nothing left to sacrifice.
Konan, squirming in his arms due to his mischievous hands, made him look at her and said, "You said Nagato's Rinnegan isn't his own. Whose is it? Why did they put it in him? What was their true intention? Also... That masked man who claims to be Madara Uchiha. What's his real purpose for approaching our Akatsuki? And..."
She was rapidly firing off the questions she most wanted answered.
Yusuke lightly picked his ear and said, "First question: Is Nagato's Rinnegan his own or not? Answer: His Rinnegan certainly isn't his own. It belongs to Madara Uchiha. Oh, the Madara mentioned here is the real one, not that masked impostor."
After he finished speaking, Konan's face was filled with confusion.
"Impossible... Madara Uchiha was a ninja from the Warring States period. He couldn't possibly be alive now."
"There are many details you don't know about this." Yusuke chuckled lightly.
"Tell me!" She said urgently.
He continued, "Now, I'll answer your second question. Why did they transplant the Rinnegan into Nagato? It's because Madara saw potential in him. Moreover, his goal was to use this new puppet in the future to perform the Outer Path — Samsara of Heavenly Life Technique. Nagato must have told you about this forbidden jutsu, right?"
Yusuke tilted his head, looking at Konan beside him.
She nodded slightly. She indeed knew about this forbidden jutsu. However, the cost was terribly high: it consumed one's life force!
"Therefore, Madara Uchiha transplanted his own Rinnegan into Nagato. The purpose was so that at an appropriate time in the future, he could be resurrected." After he finished speaking, he smiled slightly, "Alright, I've answered your two questions."
"But... but I..." Hearing this, Konan bit her lip hard.
She still had so many questions that remained unanswered. Who really was that mysterious masked man claiming to be Madara Uchiha? And what was that mysterious Infinite Tsukuyomi plan?
Also... Yusuke had told her before: Yahiko's death — there was more to it than met the eye!
"I... I want to know more answers!" In Konan's eyes, there was a look of determination!
Then, she took the initiative. Even Yusuke couldn't help but click his tongue.
It seemed the desire for knowledge had completely consumed her!

A day and night later.
Konan struggled to ask the question that had been burning in her mind.
"Yahiko's death... You mentioned before that there was more to it than meets the eye. I want to know the truth about this!" In her eyes, a glimmer of clarity flashed.
She thought, 'By asking this way, you must tell me everything now, right?'
"Tsk tsk... I didn't expect this, Konan, you're quite greedy, aren't you? Trying to extract so much information from me in just one night?" Yusuke effortlessly saw through her thoughts.
Hearing this, Konan's cheeks flushed red. However, she still gazed intently at him, determined to know the truth about this matter.
"Alright. Seeing how hard you've tried, I'll tell you." He clicked his tongue, "Actually, you must have been very curious at the time. Hanzo of the Salamander, who had agreed to negotiate with you — why did he suddenly betray you, right?"
"Yes!" Hearing this, she immediately clenched her fists!
This matter had always puzzled her. After Yahiko's death, Nagato turned to the dark side. Soon after, he completely annihilated all of Hanzo's forces! As a result, the secret behind this incident seemed to have been sealed away forever.
And now, she was extremely eager to hear the truth about that year's incident from his mouth!
"Back then, that guy, Hanzo the Salamander, was indeed planning to reconcile with your newly formed Akatsuki. However, midway through, he encountered a scapegoat king."
"Scapegoat king?" Upon hearing this somewhat dramatic term, Konan couldn't help but become curious.
"Danzo Shimura, the leader of Root in Konoha." Yusuke continued, "He was carrying out another mission in Amegakure at that time, and it was because of this that he discovered your newly emerging Akatsuki."
"As for Danzo, he's a petty man." He sighed, "When he discovered that there was a fairly strong organization in Ame, his first thought was to eliminate you."
