Naruto Shadow Mage

 “Nagato.”

 “No, it’s Payne!”

 “Penn is crazy!”

Even though Nagato tried his best to suppress the violence in his tone when he spoke, a helpless smile still appeared at the corner of his mouth when he heard Nagato's calm and crazy words.

 Has the incident in the Country of Rain been successfully completed?

There were some twists and turns, but it was indeed completed.

 It was just that Nagato's "blackening" could not be stopped, and there was still a little regret left in Cross Country's heart.

Especially when Nagato's "blackening" was linked to Uchiha Obito's "blackening", Cross Country suddenly felt that the Nine-Tails Battle a few months later might not be as simple as he imagined.

Even off-road, it feels like Madara has truly died. It was the "blackened" Uchiha Obito who replaced Madara and completed all the plans of the Rain Country.

If this is really the case, then the Fourth Hokage and Uzumaki Kushina in the Battle of the Nine-Tails will be in some trouble.

Even if Uchiha Obito does not have the strength in the original plot, after inheriting Madara's will and with the help of Black Zetsu, Cross Country still believes that Uchiha Obito is likely to make waves.

Just like in the original plot, the "blackened" Uchiha Obito is likely to become a behind-the-scenes BOSS.

These may be unexpected things when going off-road, but they are things that must be faced.

However, feeling the spiritual energy after the "qualitative" change, I found that the chakra in the body was still unable to be used, and even the head of the demigod Hanzo could not be sealed. The helpless smile gradually dissipated, and the cross-country suddenly stopped and stared closely. The head of the demigod and half-zodiac could not help but secretly thought:

“It’s really inconvenient to not be able to use chakra.”

"Without the ability to use chakra, I can only rely on taijutsu to fight. I am at best an elite genin, right?"

"ha!"

“It’s really painful to fall from a half-step quasi-kage-level strongman to an elite genin now.”

“However, the Nine-Tails Battle should still take three months.”

“After three full months, I should be able to regain some strength.”

"So."

“Just think of ways to restore your strength first, and then think about further improving your strength!”

Huttered to himself, Cross Country silently communicated with the APP and brought up the APP's R&D function.

 The surprisingly useful latent shadow technique has been developed. Off-road in an emergency, there is naturally not enough time to add research and development functions.

Now that the matter in the Kingdom of Rain has come to an end, the head of Demigod Hanzo has been successfully obtained, and Off-Road has time to study the secret techniques he plans to develop later.

Moreover, since the effect of the Latent Shadow Technique is so easy to use, and it can help you build the prototype of a field, Cross Country's first idea is to use the R&D function of the APP to further enhance the effect of the Latent Shadow Technique.

  That is to say, based on the latent shadow technique, and using the power of the APP's R&D function, we can develop a more useful and powerful latent shadow technique.

"Um"

“The first secret technique in the research and development function has been confirmed. It is definitely the latent shadow technique that I want to improve.”

"Huh?"

“There are still a lot of things that can be combined with research and development in the future!”

 “Quantity? Quality? Scope?”

 “It’s all very interesting!”

“Furthermore, the latent shadow technique can actually be combined with the shadow hand, shadow neck binding technique and other secret techniques to develop new secret techniques?”

“The R&D function of the APP is really easy to use!”

Looking at the dazzling array of combinations in the R&D function, I already know the off-road effects of some R&D functions. I just choose different content and change the growth path of the latent shadow technique again and again. I want to see how to develop the latent shadow technique. , in order to be more adaptable to your own path forward.

However, just when Cross Country was thinking about whether combining the latent shadow technique and range would further improve the prototype of his field, suddenly Cross Country discovered that the best possibility for the growth of the latent shadow technique was in After hesitating for a few seconds, I decided on the new secret technique for APP development function research!

 “The mystery of time and space?”

“Using the latent shadow technique to develop new secret techniques can actually add some mysteries of time and space. Even if the chance of success is only 30%, we still have to fight!”

“Perhaps this time, it will take a long time for the new secret technique to be successfully developed!”

"But. But as long as you can use the latent shadow technique to master the secrets of time and space, it will be worth the time you spend!"

“So it’s you, the art of latent shadow + the mystery of time and space!”

 “APP, develop it!”

Having determined the growth path of the latent shadow technique, Cross Country had a faint smile on his face, and then embarked on the road back to the Land of Fire in anticipation.

 But before returning to the Land of Fire, Cross Country still did not forget that important matter and needed to deal with it himself.

Therefore, walking on the muddy road, the off-road figure will soon disappear in the Kingdom of Rain.

When the cross-country appeared again, it was three days later.

 As for the location where the cross-country will appear, even Nagato and Konan may not be able to guess it!

 Because the location where he showed up again after three days of off-roading was actually in a village near Yuren Village!

　　Three days ago, off-road had already changed his appearance, disguised himself as an ordinary child, and used some props to change his appearance.

 There is no way, who said that the transformation technique cannot be used when traveling off-road?

 Without the ability to use transformation, off-road can only rely on some external objects to change his appearance.

 Then, he slowly walked into the village near Yuren Village. Not to mention, he got some important information as soon as he stepped into it.

 And the source of the intelligence is actually the civilians in this village!

“Have you heard? Lord Hanzo is dead! What a shocking news!”

"Not only is Hanzo-sama dead, does the rebel organization "Akatsuki" know about it? I heard that the leader of the "Akatsuki" organization has changed, and it seems to be a guy named Payne!"

“Penn? What a strange name. Is he planning to replace Lord Hanzo and become the leader of Rain Ninja Village?”

“Idiot! Hanzo-sama is actually not dead, but chose to attach himself to Pain-sama! Your news is out of date!”

Finding that the surrounding civilians knew something about what happened in Yuren Village, Jiujiang smiled silently and quickly sorted out the information and picked out some useful content.

 The first useful content is undoubtedly Payne’s appearance.

As expected by Cross Country, after Nagato became "black", his pseudonym Payne became the leader of the "Akatsuki" organization. Moreover, because of the death of Demigod and Demizo, it seems that the "Akatsuki" organization under Commander Nagato will be able to completely gain control of the Rain Ninja Village in a short time. Next, it only needs to pass some small tests. It is estimated that Nagato will Men can become the real "god" of Yu Ninja Village just like in the original plot!

 The second useful content is that within the body of Six Paths Payne, there is a half-god and half-hidden body.

The head of Demigod and Hanzo was right there, off-road. Of course, off-road, Nagato didn't know what method he used to beat Demigod and Hanzo's body again.

Off-road can only know that the so-called demigod Hanzo is attached to Nagato, and it must be Nagato who used the corpse of demigod Hanzo to make the Six Paths of Payne.

Understanding this content, Cross Country can be sure that Nagato will rule the Rain Ninja Village faster than in the original plot.

Who made all the demigods and half-zodiacs "attached" to Nagato?

 As for the third useful content, it is some guesses about off-roading.

Looking at the attitude of the civilians in the Country of Rain, Cross Country feels that the "Akatsuki" organization is still like a rebel organization in the Country of Rain. Therefore, if the ninja villages in other countries incite the power of the civilians of the Land of Rain and cause some trouble to the "Akatsuki" organization led by Nagato, it is very likely that the "Akatsuki" organization will become a bright side, as in the original plot. The dark side.

Especially Shimura Danzo, that guy who likes to play conspiracy, must have learned about the internal situation of the Rain Country, and must be adding fuel to the flames to severely weaken the power of the "Akatsuki" organization.

 Thinking that the conflict between Nagato and the Leaf Village is likely to get bigger and bigger, Cross Country doesn’t know how he feels. Anyway, it’s weird.

However, these are not things that need to be thought about during cross-country for the time being. Apart from returning to Konoha Village as soon as possible, there is actually only one thing that needs to be done during cross-country today.

That is.

Have a good talk with a guy who was supposed to die but didn’t!

 “Yahiko, it’s Pain’s time now.”

  “As the former leader of the Akatsuki organization, what do you think?”
