Waiting for Itachi to return.

"Of course, you were thinking of Itachi." You looked to Nagato, who nodded in confirmation. "Well...do we know where he is at the moment?"

"He's currently been hired to **** a few local leaders in the Hidden Grass by their rivals." Nagato explained. "Much like you, we haven't made contact with him due to the risk of compromising his mission. As you know, the Hidden Grass specializes in diplomacy. However, they've also shown to be rather good at being shrewd and well aware at what goes on around them, even more so than some of the bigger villages around them do."

"I suppose we'll have to wait then?" Konan asked Nagato curiously.

"I doubt it'll take too long. Knowing what we know about him, we have nothing to worry about." Nagato sighed. "Then...should we head back to our village for now? It's a bit exhausting to control one of the Paths from so far away and for an extended period of time."

"Mmm..." Konan thought for a few moments, but then nodded. She could always come back anyways. "Yes, we should go then." Nagato nodded and they both left the scene, and eventually, retreated back into Amegakure, the Village Hidden in the Rain.

As the pair made it back to their village proper, they sneakily found their way back Nagato's "Tower of Pain", avoiding being spotted any of the villagers and safely entering the building.

"Are you going to rest now, Nagato? To travel the distance you have, away from your main body for this long...I do apologize for taking up so much time..." Konan sincerely apologized to Nagato as he shook his head and waved it off.

"No, it's fine. It was an essential conversation, so there is no need to apologize. To answer your first question though, yes, I'm going to rest for awhile...remember though, if you need me..." He started slowly.

"I'll look for you if I need you, Nagato, now go rest. You need it for the coming times ahead of us." Konan smiled gently at him as he nodded and soon left her side to let his body rest. Now alone, Konan also decided to head into her room and settle down for a bit, wanting to take a shower.

"It was fun staying in the village while it lasted~" Konan hummed to herself as she stripped off her clothes, still admiring all the nice piercings and accessories she has on her body now. "Hehe..~ Still looking great~" She gave herself a perverted smile as she took off to the bathroom shower, washing off all the excess muck and grime she's accumulated on the journey back to this place. "Haa...the water does feel a lot better here..~" She commentated as she stepped out and wiped herself all over with a towel before exiting to change into a new set of her clothes.

Konan soon found herself looking down towards the village. You watched the villagers going about their daily lives, happily interacting with one another as they sometimes look to the Tower with a face that spoke of reverence for both her and Nagato, their "god".

'...Once we revitalize who we once were...once we rid ourselves of the infestation lurking within the Akatsuki...we may very well find ourselves spreading the feeling of hope, joy, and actual peace.... Farther than just this village...' You smiled, thinking of the future possibilities. A thought then struck her head. '...I wonder how Jiraiya-sensei is doing...? If I recall...he was one of the three legendary Sannin...would it be possible...? If somehow...we could invite him here and try to get him into the plan...no...I'm sure Nagato would be okay with it...but the rest....perhaps I'll have to discuss it after we're done recruiting everyone...' You sighed, though you now had a new possibility resting within reach to help you end Madara.

"It's been a while since I've visited the villagers...perhaps now would be a good time..." Konan quietly spoke to herself as she settled on checking out the village herself, using her paper jutsu to reform her paper wings, she flew down to the ground, quickly landing gracefully. 'Thankfully, everything seems to still be in order.' A few of the Amegakure shinobi, who saw Konan land, quickly made their way over to her, and kneeled reverently.

"Miss Angel..." One of the shinobi addressed her respectfully. "To grace us with your presence! It's an unbelievable honor."

'Uwah...they're really zealous, huh...' Konan thought to herself as she kept up her stoic face. "Yes...please, raise your heads. I wish to know how the village fares these days." Konan spoke softly, but firmly at the same time.

"Yes Ma'am!" Another shinobi answered as she went about detailing everything that's been happening so far in the village. "Everything as of the moment is working as they should be, the villagers are in good spirits, the crops are growing well, new construction efforts are taking place to replace the older, more decrepit buildings, and nobody has thus far managed to infiltrate the village to our knowledge, Ma'am!"

"I see...you're all doing excellent work. Be proud of yourselves, and continue to work hard not just for your sake, but for the sake of those around you. Is that clear?" Konan told them.

"YES MA'AM!" They all shouted in affirmation.

"Good, dismissed. Despite all the good news, I would like to take the opportunity to explore the village myself. There will be no need for an escort." Konan spoke to them about what wanted to do, making it clear she wanted to do this alone.

"Of course, Ma'am! If you ever need us, please just call upon us and we will be there to assist you in a flash!" The shinobi bowed deeply once more before they all disappeared, going back to their posts and duties.

Konan explored the village, quite thoroughly enjoying the feeling of being praised by everyone around her as they always smiled at her and greeted her cheerfully and with respect, with the smaller ones asking if they'll ever get to meet "god" himself, to which she replied positively on that note. 'Maybe I can Nagato to come out and greet his people personally, one day...' She thought to herself as you walked along.

"If I recall...this was a bar, huh...?" Though there weren't many, there were still bars around the village and this one happened to be down a staircase. "...I have a feeling I'll have a lovely time...if I head down there..." Konan swallowed a lump in her throat as she thought about it for only a moment.

***

"Just a bottle of wine please." Konan ordered, sitting down on a stool as she ordered a drink to a relatively surprised bartender, though he soon nodded and went to getting her bottle of drink.

"Woaah...lookie here..." An **** man took a seat next to her. His breath smelling of ****. "Iz the Angeell...~" He smiled drunkenly as she felt a hand soon rubbing her leg. "I thiink...this lil Agnel...needs a lessozn...~" Despite his **** state, his hand moved gently up and down Konan's leg.

"...Mm..." She let out a small gasp as she felt his hand move further up, testing the boundaries slowly. Eventually, his hand landed on her pussy, his hand then expertly began rubbing it. "M-Mmnn...~" Despite being able to stop it, she found that she couldn't. In fact, she felt herself start to get excited.

"Oho...mahhybe thisz little Aaangel...izzsin't...sho...innocentt...~" The man stared at Konan with a huge grin on his face as his hand found out where her clit was and pressed against it, making her panties and pants rub roughly against it.

"G-GHhhh...~ S...Stop...you fool...ah...~" Konan could already feel herself submitting to him as the results of all her training left her extremely obedient to those who sexually attack her.
