Akatsuki’s base.
The skinny Nagato, sitting high in a high chair, is discussing with Konan the various trivial issues such as the development direction and progress of Ame Village or Akatsuki as always.
TL note: Nagato was a shinobi of Amegakure and descendant of the Uzumaki clan. Forming Akatsuki alongside his friends (and fellow war orphans) Yahiko and Konan, Nagato dreamed of bringing peace to the violent shinobi world. However, following Yahiko’s death, Nagato adopted the alias of Pain (Pein) and, along with Konan, began leading a new Akatsuki — one that would force the world into peace using any means necessary.
And it is at this time.
Masked Obito, who claims to be Uchiha Madara, suddenly appeared here.
Nagato indifferently said: “What are you doing here? Something happened?”
Konan’s vigilance was even more extreme.
Although there is no doubt about the strength of Nagato, Konan knows that Nagato’s health is not good, so unless it is spelled by circumstances, she does not want Nagato to do it himself, lest his body will be weaker.
TL note: Konan was a kunoichi from Amegakure and a founding member of the original Akatsuki. After Yahiko‘s death, she was partnered with Nagato, who had since taken control of Akatsuki, and was the only member to call him by his name. After Nagato’s death, Konan defected from Akatsuki and became the de facto village head of Amegakure.
Of course, her worries were temporarily unnecessary.
Because of the current Obito has no intention to start with Nagato at all.
And even if it is a hands-on, Nagato with Rinnegan may not necessarily beat Obito.
""
He came today, mainly to urge Nagato to implement the plan to capture Tailed Beast. After all, Akatsuki has had a period of time and stopped his hand.
Obito: “I’m here to ask you, when do you want to speed up the process of catching the tail beast? I see you, in this respect, it seems that you are not as active as before. What happened? Want to give up our original idea?”
Nagato: “You are right, I am not so active in capturing Tailed Beast. But this does not mean that I gave up the original idea. This is because I changed my plan.”
“What?!” Obito cry out in surprise, “Change plan?! What plan did you change? Why didn’t you discuss with me? Didn’t say that at first that we need to collect Tailed Beast and master the most powerful force in the world?! That it’s our ideal!”
In original work, Nagato’s plan has a total of 3 steps.
The first step. Earn a lot of money.
As long as they have a lot of money, then the Akatsuki can act conveniently.
Second step. Causes a war in the countries. Let people really appreciate the pain caused by war. When people feel this pain, they will cherish this hard-won peace.
Third step. Take control of the power of world’s strongest.
Use this power to suppress the whole world and get his ideal peaceful world.
Unlike Obito, Nagato collects Tailed Beasts in order to gain more power and facilitate the suppression of the whole world in the future. Obito’s plan is to realize ‘Infinite Tsukuyomi’.
So, when Obito heard Nagato say he wanted to change his plan, he became very nervous.
Nagato said: “I’m not in a hurry to collect Tailed Beast. I’m more concerned about other thing now than collecting Tailed Beast; it’s Uzumaki Naruto’s Kyuubi Jinchuriki.”
He heard Nagato talking about Naruto.
Obito’s face hidden under the mask also became difficult to look at.
There is no other reason.
Because Uzumaki Naruto, the strength of Kyuubi Jinchuriki, is really stronger than he expected!
Not to mention that he can perfectly control the real body of Kyuubi.
The problem is, Naruto even owns Mangekyo Sharingan? Doesn’t that make him lose his only advantage when facing Tailed Beast? If you want to capture Kyuubi, I’m afraid it’s even harder.
Obito’s tone was low, said with clenched teeth: “Why?”
Nagato: “Don’t you think
 Uzumaki Naruto’s Kyuubi Jinchuriki’s strength is beyond imagination? Even me, I can’t be 100% sure I can capture him.”
Obito: “So what? Then shouldn’t we find a way to deal with him more?! He has now walked out of Konoha, this is our best chance to deal with him!”
With the help of White Zetsu, Akatsuki will not lack the information.
So, Naruto’s whereabouts; they all know perfectly clear.
""
Nagato shook his head, said indifferently: “No, I won’t deal with him for the time being. I also understand a little about Uzumaki Naruto through childhood’s experience. I think
 if it is him, he would understand our philosophy. With his strength, he is also very suitable to be my heir. You don’t need to say more. I have asked Hidan and Kakuzu to invite him to come here and meet me. For other things, please wait until the meeting is over.”
That’s right! This is the latest plan of Nagato!
The emergence of Li Yaoxiang’s butterfly effect has led to Naruto in this life. In this timeline, he is too powerful. Because of Naruto’s strength, he changed Nagato’s thinking!
What is Nagato’s ultimate goal?
Isn’t it just to control the power of world’s strongest, use this power to shock the whole world and achieve world peace?
Exactly!
What Nagato likes is Naruto’s power!
To tell the truth. Even if he plans to succeed, all the Tailed Beasts collected, he would get the most powerful force in the world and achieve world peace, but
 how about this?
Take his current physical condition.
How long can this so-called peace last?
What should he do after he dies?
How does he ensure that people will continue to insist on this peace?
These hidden dangers, of course, Nagato couldn’t be clearer. However, before, he knew that there was no other way, and he could only continue to go on, hoping to see this scene of world peace in his lifetime at the very least.
It can be described as one step, one step.
But- the moment when Naruto showed his real strength, Nagato was finally shaken.
The power of world’s strongest!
Isn’t he the most powerful force in the world when he cooperates with Naruto?
And, as long as Naruto accepts his ideas, then Naruto must be his best heir! Because after his death, Naruto also has enough strength to maintain peace!
This is why Nagato changed his mind!
After Obito heard about it, he felt agitated.
The face hidden under the mask.
The body hidden under the red cloud black robe.
He wasn’t able to bear his body trembling!
Damn it! This is not the result he wanted! What he wants is to have Rin’s world peace! Only ‘Infinite Tsukuyomi’ can realize his ideas.
Everything was going very smoothly.
It was because this damned Uzumaki Naruto suddenly appeared, things became extremely tricky!
For a while, he couldn’t think of a way to solve this problem.
After all, judging from what he has observed so far, Nagato’s Willpower seems to be very firm. It is estimated that no matter how he persuades, it cannot change Nagato’s ideas.
He can only leave first, and then go back to discuss with Black Zetsu.
Obito’s deep eyes looked at Nagato for a while.
In the end nothing was said.
Turned around and left.
After Obito left completely, Konan’s brows slightly wrinkled. She worriedly said: “Nagato
 He, do you think there will be any problems? He seems to be particularly concerned about collecting Tailed Beast?”
Obito’s response this time, let Konan saw some clues.
People with the same idea wanting to win the idea of Uzumaki Naruto should be no big problem, but
 How can this person who claims to be Uchiha Madara not understand this truth?
This made Konan suspicious of Obito.
Nagato said indifferently: “It’s okay, as long as I persuaded Uzumaki Naruto this time
 then everything is a foregone conclusion. Under my cooperation with Uzumaki Naruto, no matter how he plays tricks, he can’t afford any big waves.”
The two continued to discuss the political issues of Akatsuki and Ame Village.
And in another distant place, Kakuzu and Hidan finally found the trace of Naruto
