"Should we attack proactively?"
Konan asked.
"Wait a bit longer, I think it's not simple..."
Nagato replied.
First of all, if this is just a simple attack, then it would be fine to just put it in like before, fast speed, strong power, and no obvious premonition, that is the perfect ambush, there is no need to use such a strange way to send in that kind of thing.
So...
There must be some problem with that scroll!
Either it's a terrifying trap, a sealing scroll with great power, or it's something else, not dangerous at all, it's something that some people want to give them, or it's information they want to convey.
Although they can't determine the real situation at present, there is a technique that can assist them in obtaining information without danger.
That is... the Paper Shadow Clone Technique!
"Paper Shadow Clone Technique!"
A large number of paper pieces scattered, forming a brand new Konan in mid-air, and flying towards the location of the scroll with paper wings, at the same time, Nagato also subconsciously stood in front of Konan's main body, ready to directly activate the Preta Path and Shinra Tensei at any time.
Due to the ridiculously low absorption efficiency of Senjutsu that appeared a while ago, Nagato is now not very confident in the Preta Path's ability against Ninjutsu, as long as he feels a little wrong, he will directly switch to Shinra Tensei to forcibly repel the attack.
Getting closer, getting closer...
The paper clone is about to touch the scroll...
She touched it!
The moment the paper clone touched it, Konan and Nagato instinctively squinted their eyes to block, Ninjutsu was about to be used, but... nothing happened.
The two looked at each other, realizing that this might be a trigger type, so they let the paper clone try to open the scroll.
"Bang!"
The moment the scroll opened, a small amount of white smoke slowly dispersed, Nagato and Konan did not relax their vigilance, but still looked at the position of the scroll with full alertness, who knows if that little thing is some unknown powerful Summoned Beast.
"Hmm?"
The smoke dissipated, and the two were a bit stunned, the thing that came out of the scroll seemed to be food?
Did Obito send food?
No, there must be an inside story. What's the difference between this and a weasel wishing a chicken a happy new year?
But now... they are really hungry...
"Check the food."
Nagato said.
"Hmm."
Konan nodded, letting the paper clone carefully check these foods. They were very careful, and since they grew up as wild children in war, they knew a bit about poisonous food.
After a while...
"It seems, there's no problem, it's just pure food. And from the cooking and seasoning, the source of the food seems to be Iwagakure Village." Konan turned her head and said to Nagato.
"Iwagakure Village?"
Nagato was a bit puzzled. Although Obito had talked about going to Iwagakure Village, this guy really went there and even brought him takeout in the form of a shadow clone. This seems to conflict with their previous judgment.
Naruto is in Konohagakure, and the takeout is in Iwagakure Village. It's a bit difficult to run so far in one day.
But there is another possibility, that is, Obito bought food in Konohagakure that imitates the taste of Iwagakure Village. The similarity is because that's how they imitate it. The goal is to make money. After all, they are just people from the Hidden Rain Village. They don't have a particularly deep understanding of the food in Iwagakure Village, so it's normal not to recognize it.
But...
Why would the masked man do this?
What's the necessity?
"Konan, what do you think about this?"
Nagato asked, touching his chin with one hand.
"From a normal perspective, it's very unreasonable. It's unreasonable in all sorts of ways, unless... there's something we don't know, some special reason." Konan thought for a while and replied.
"Hmm."
Nagato nodded, although what he said was the same as if he hadn't said it, but Konan was right.
He thought for a while, suddenly realized, and said as if he had awakened, "I understand, I know why this is."
"Why?"
"Do you remember? That masked man only have one Mangekyou Sharingan under his mask. I don't know if you have ever wondered, does that guy only have one Mangekyou Sharingan, or does he only show one? If he only has one, then where is his other Mangekyou Sharingan? Why doesn't he have two eyes at the same time?"
Nagato's expression gradually changed, and he continued, "I think, that guy is not Uchiha Madara at all, but Uchiha Madara's successor, and he is a successor who only inherited one of Madara's Mangekyou Sharingan."
"However, besides that guy, there should be other successors who also inherited Uchiha Madara's Mangekyou Sharingan and also have the ability to open the Kamui space. This is also the reason why we were suddenly attacked."
"Is that so?"
Konan suddenly realized, she felt that everything seemed to be explainable.
If the masked man opened his eyes, it would seem strange to have only one Mangekyou Sharingan. But if that's not his own eye, but a transplanted Uchiha Madara's Mangekyou Sharingan, and he calls himself Uchiha Madara, then the logic would be smooth all at once.
The eyes were inherited, the name was inherited, and the goals and wishes were also inherited, which is reasonable.
"Then, another person who has Uchiha Madara's Mangekyou Sharingan, I suspect he is in Konohagakure, and he is also a person who has a very close relationship with the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. Otherwise, he is likely to have no chance to let the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki enter the Kamui space to check the situation for him." Nagato continued.
"Was the attack we received earlier also transferred by another Mangekyou Sharingan inheritor?" Konan asked subconsciously.
"Yes, it was that guy. He's been using the power of the Mangekyou Sharingan at a high frequency for a long time. His current situation probably isn't good, so he can't continue to use the previous technique consecutively. This is the fundamental reason for our current safety." Nagato said.
"Yes, I understand! Even if it's the same Mangekyou Sharingan, the abilities possessed by the two eyes will be different. The ability of the masked man's Mangekyou Sharingan is to absorb and phase, but in reality, the range of absorption is very small, and the speed is not particularly fast..."
"So, the attack that was transferred earlier, there is a high probability that it was the eye of Uchiha Madara who is better at attacking, it was the operation of another person, the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki was also brought by him!" Konan also woke up and said.
Then, the two stared at the food, did not take it at the first time, nor did they eat it at the first time, just silently watching those foods.
Guessing is just guessing, before it is fully confirmed it cannot be believed as reality, conclusions do not necessarily have to be fully believed immediately, maintaining necessary caution is a must no matter what.
