The illusion projected from the ring in Kaito's hand at this moment was naturally the "Astral Projection Jutsu" mastered by Nagato.
This special ninjutsu unique to the Rinnegan allows Nagato to materialize the 'thought body' of a designated target through a special medium, regardless of distance, thereby achieving the effect of long-distance communication.
Even if Nagato wanted, these materialized 'thought bodies' could also perform ninjutsu.
It can be said to be one of the most practical abilities in the Rinnegan.
The ring that Kaito and Nagato are using to communicate now was the one that Hoshigaki Kisame brought back after he delivered a letter to the Land of Rain some time ago.
At the beginning, Kaito specially asked Hoshigaki Kisame to bring a summoning beast for communication, but unexpectedly, the other party directly sent back such a more convenient "communicator".
Since the 'Astral Projection Jutsu’ is only a one-way communication, Nagato doesn't even need to condense into a phantom, and the words spoken by Kaito will be directly transmitted to his mind.
At this time, Nagato was in the Akatsuki base. To outsiders, he looked dazed and he didn't have to worry about being discovered.
Therefore, Kaito has contacted Nagato several times in recent times to learn about the latest developments of the Akatsuki organization in real time.
Furthermore, during the two months that Kaito worked 'part-time' in the Akatsuki organization, he had a pretty good relationship with the three of them, and Nagato did not hide most things from him.
"Nagato, is that Yahiko guy next to you?"
Kaito basically asked this question every time they contacted each other, so Nagato was not surprised.
"Yahiko is not here. Lord Hanzo has sent a messenger, and Yahiko is discussing something with the messenger."
Kaito was startled when he heard this and asked hurriedly.
"Hanzo's messenger? Is he a one-eyed old man?"
In Kaito's already somewhat vague impression, the so-called recruitment of Hanzo was actually the work of that bastard Shimura Danzo behind the scenes.
First, he used words to make Hanzo, who was already somewhat afraid of Akatsuki, determined to get rid of Akatsuki. Then, in the name of Hanzo's envoy, he went to the Akatsuki base to induce Yahiko and others to go for negotiations, and set up an ambush with Hanzo, which eventually led to the destruction of the first generation Akatsuki.
When going to the Akatsuki base, Shimura Danzo did not even disguise himself too much and still appeared in his original appearance.
However, in response to Kaito's question, the 'thought body' illusion in front of him was a little slow to react, and replied in a puzzled tone.
"One-eyed? No, it's Heiji, Hanzo-sama's right-hand man, who came."
"This person came here once two days ago, but the condition he proposed at that time was that we disband the Akatsuki organization and join Hanzo-sama. Yahiko did not agree, and it seems that he came here with some new conditions this time."
Kaito was also slightly stunned when he heard this.
For a moment, Kaito didn't know whether this was a plot that was not shown in the original work, or whether the bastard Danzo did not target the Land of Rain this time.
However, Kaito thought about it for a moment and felt that the latter situation was not impossible.
Ever since the Iwagakure Village officially invaded the territory of the Land of Fire and the Sunagakure Village announced its withdrawal from this war.
The Land of Rain is no longer the main battlefield of the Land of Fire, Earth, and Wind.
In addition, after he defeated Danzo last time, the battlefield in the northern part of the Land of Fire has now reached a white-hot stage.
This bastard may not have the time to deal with the situation in the Land of Rain.
However, Kaito still reminded Nagato again.
"The Akatsuki organization has been carrying the Amegakure forehead protector and moving around the Land of Rain wantonly all day long. It's impossible for that old guy Hanzo to have any good impression of you. In the future, whether you are recruiting or meeting with them, you should be careful."
However, Nagato's answer to Kaito's reminder made him speechless and frown.
"These are things Yahiko needs to consider, and I will listen to him."
Kaito opened his mouth and wanted to scold him, but finally gave up.
At this moment, Nagato was a gentle guy if you put it nicely, but he had no opinion of his own if you put it bluntly.
From the moment he was rescued by Konan and met Yahiko, everything in his life was following in Yahiko's footsteps, and he never lived for himself.
Even after Yahiko died in the original work, he still believed in Yahiko's previous thoughts.
He used Yahiko's corpse to create Pain, and pushed the Yahiko in his own impression to the forefront, while he himself was still willing to hide behind Yahiko.
This is also the reason why, every time Kaito contacted Nagato, he would first ask "Is Yahiko with you?" It was extremely difficult to get this guy to make the decision and think about something.
"I know, I know. Then just tell Yahiko what I said later!"
Kaito replied helplessly.
‘Since Hanzo has already extended an olive branch to Akatsuki, it is unlikely that he will be able to persuade Yahiko to rebel.’
Although he thought so in his heart, Kaito was not ready to give up his previous plan.
Having just taken over Mizukage's position recently, it is not convenient for him to abandon the village and act alone, but he is not confident in letting others deal with a strong man like Hanzo. After all, without the support of the people in the Akatsuki organization, he can only choose assassination.
Once the assassination was exposed, being misunderstood by the Akatsuki organization would be more trouble than gain.
Not to mention, they have to be wary of Black Zetsu and Obito who are hiding in the dark.
‘Sigh, I still have to do it myself. I have to quickly improve the fighting power of these guys in the village.’
'Why do I have to worry about training talents at my age?'
However, the reason why Kaito went to see Nagato today was not because of this matter. Given the current situation of the Akatsuki organization, it is not to the point of being urgent.
Kaito decisively changed the subject.
"Has that Uchiha Obito guy come to see you guys recently?"
"No, he showed up last time as Uchiha Madara and said some inexplicable things, and he never showed up again."
That's right, thanks to the concealment of the communication through the "Astral Projection Jutsu".
Before, when Kaito knew that Uchiha Obito had appeared in front of Nagato and others, he opened the box for him immediately.
However, Kaito only said that he knew that there was such a person who was spying on Nagato's Rinnegan, and did not explain further to avoid exposing more information in the future.
In short, Kaito was very happy to do anything that could cause trouble for Uchiha Obito.
"Next time that guy shows up, Nagato, contact me immediately. I have an interesting little experiment that I need to do."
Nagato, illuminated by the Astral Projection Jutsu, couldn't help but shudder when he saw the strange smile on Kaito's face.
Thinking of the pranks that Kaito had done when he was in the Akatsuki organization, he couldn't help but secretly resent them.
‘This guy is about to become the Mizukage, why is he still so evil?’
