Chapter 456

[Nagato, who was cornered, gasped and trembled as he pulled out the kunai that Hanzo had thrown in front of him. After staring for a moment, Nagato unconsciously raised his head and muttered Konan's name. Then, when he turned his head to look at Yahiko, a figure rushed over and grabbed his arm holding the kunai and ran straight into him. ]

["Sure enough, they are all naive, even Yahiko, who seems to be very responsible. Do you really think that if you follow Hanzo's instructions, the other two will survive?"]

["In that situation, there is no other choice except to take action directly. No matter how concerned Nagato is, he was confused and was manipulated by Hanzo's words. It became a situation where he had to choose one of the two to sacrifice."]

["Tsk, Yahiko is too straightforward. Although his original intention was to save Konan, he didn't think about whether Nagato could bear it in his heart. They have been together for so long, and he still... Do you understand Nagato's character? "]

["He chose suicide just to save Nagato from having to suffer, even though this choice was wrong."]

[Half-embracing Nagato, Yahiko shed blood from his mouth as he stared into his dull eyes, saying incoherently: "You and Konan... must live no matter what... You are... the savior of this world... If it's you... then it will definitely be possible... really..."]

["Yahiko! !" Konan, who saw the whole scene, let out a heart-wrenching cry.]

["This is my second pain. I've grown up, but I still can't change anything like before, just like when my parents died. I finally realized that the answers I found before were worthless." Nagato's voice-over sounded, explaining the inner feelings of Nagato, who had a desperate look in the picture. 】

["Although I know that they have such extreme thoughts, they must have experienced something very painful, but I still feel a little sad after seeing this scene. They all had such great ideals at the beginning..."]

["Hehe, the ideal is indeed great, and no one can deny the correctness of this ideal, but it is wrong to hold such an ideal in the ninja world. Reality will teach you how to be a human being."]

["It's not the ninja world that is wrong, but people like Danzo..."]

["Hahaha, it seems that this understanding is not wrong. Hanzo's motives for targeting Nagato and others are understandable, but Danzo is really inexplicable. He really won't stop until he torments Konoha to death."]

["Konoha should investigate carefully, see if Danzo What enemies did we provoke in the past, so that no one will blow up Konoha in the name of revenge in the future. "]

["It feels like everything is stimulating Nagato to grow towards God, and Yahiko's last words are the last straw that broke the camel's back."]

"We were so naive back then. Just because of Hanzo's lie, Yahiko ended up like that."

Konan looked at Yahiko who died generously on the sky with a sad face, while Nagato kept a cold face and whispered: "It is because we were too stupid at that time that I will never forget Yahiko's death, nor the dream he entrusted to me..."

[Yahiko died, but Hanzo had no intention of fulfilling the agreement, and directly ordered his subordinates to attack Nagato.]

[A large number of kunai came towards him, and Nagato raised his arms with lifeless eyes, and bounced off all the attacks out of thin air, and then he jumped to the top of the cliff with his legs. ]

[Out of caution, Hanzo quickly distanced himself from Konan, and when Nagato came to Konan, he pressed the ground to control a large number of detonating tags to stick to Nagato's feet, and then detonated the detonating tags to explode with a strong flame. ]

[Nagato protected Konan, who was unharmed, and returned to the bottom of the cliff. The price was that his two calves were almost burned to charcoal. ]

["Is Nagato also the kind of person who can only exert his strength after his emotions are mobilized? If it was like this at the beginning, maybe he wouldn't have to go through all the previous things."]

["It's meaningless to make such assumptions. Let's see how the battle between him and Hanzo goes next."]

["His legs are disabled, no wonder he has to sit on the back of that device... Although it was achieved by holding hostages, Hanzo is really good at it."]

[After letting Konan take Yahiko away, Nagato looked up at Hanzo with anger, and at this time Hanzo finally noticed the lines in Nagato's eyes. 】

【But the others were not so careful. Konoha's Anbu jumped off the cliff and attacked Nagato. Facing this situation, Nagato summoned the Outer Path Demon Statue, a huge body comparable to the Tailed Beasts, and instantly swept away a large number of enemies rushing over. 】

【"Nagato, you can't useThat!" Konan yelled at Nagato in panic, but Nagato could no longer hear anything.]

[The Outer Path Demon Statue and Nagato roared at the same time, and then nearly ten black forked spikes stretched out from the Outer Path Demon Statue's abdomen and pierced into Nagato's back. After absorbing a large amount of his chakra, Nagato's cheeks instantly became thinner.]

["It turns out that Hanzo had never noticed Nagato's Samsara Eye before. No wonder he targeted Yahiko."]

["By the way, Danzo's men are very active. Do they think the hatred is not enough?"]

["Danzo is really worried about destroying Konoha."]

["Huh! Has this summoned beast called the Outer Path Demon Statue appeared before? It looks familiar?"]

["In the sky curtain when the Uchiha brothers fought with Kabuto, it was finally controlled by Afei to confront Naruto. ”]

[“Nagato’s summoned beast appeared in Afei’s hands. Is this evidence that Nagato is controlled by Afei?”]

[“Is this thing a summoned beast? It looks weird, and its ability is so strange that it can actually suck the summoner into this state.”]

[Despite this, Nagato still didn’t care. While crying, he controlled the Outer Path Demon Statue to spray out a chakra dragon. The invisible and intangible chakra dragon sucked out the souls of the ninjas who stayed on the cliff the moment it passed by. After destroying all the minions, it set its sights on Hanzo.]

[Hanzo is worthy of being a man standing at the top of the ninja world. Even if such an unexpected accident happened, he remained calm and said in a deep voice: “It seems that you are the leader behind the scenes. You actually have the Samsara Eye. It’s really surprising! ”】

【However, Nagato was instantly enraged when he heard his voice. He let out a hysterical roar, and the chakra dragon opened its mouth and bit Hanzo.】
