Chapter 194
【"No, impossible, how could such a thing happen!"】
【"What is going on?"】
Even Nara Shikamaru, who is usually known for his wisdom, was full of confusion at this moment!
【"What is wrong? What exactly happened?"】
Looking at Nagato's originally red hair turning white, Uzumaki Naruto asked!
Konan did not answer Naruto's question; she turned her head away, unable to bear it!
【"The people in the village are constantly being resurrected."】
At this moment, Katsuyu, who had been staying on Naruto's chest, came out to explain!
【"What, that is?"】
Naruto looked at Nagato in shock!
【"The people I killed after coming to Konoha, there is still time now. This can also be considered as atoning for my sins."】
"Jiraiya, don't you find this sentence very familiar?"
Orochimaru stared at the video and smiled slightly!
"Yes, very familiar! Although Nagato went down the wrong path halfway, he was able to turn back and walk the original path. I am truly gratified by this!"
Jiraiya nodded and smiled!
"I didn't expect you to admire Teacher Jiraiya so much, Nagato! Even the lines are exactly the same!"
Seeing his best friend able to find the right path, Yahiko felt happy for him!
"Yes! I am truly proud to have such a teacher!"
Nagato, who had been sullen all night, finally revealed a slight smile. Clearly, he was also very much in agreement with his final decision in the video!
"Now it seems that your trust back then was correct! Naruto really led the ninja world to peace!"
Konan said softly!
"Nagato is an incredible person. Although Jiraiya was not resurrected in the end, he also drew a kind ending to his sinful life!"
Onoki said with some emotion!
"Yes! He is actually not a very bad person; he just went down the wrong path for a moment!"
Kurotsuchi nodded in agreement!
"Do you still hate him? Shisui!"
In the viewing area, Uchiha Itachi looked at his best friend beside him and asked!
"No hate, but in the future, I still want to spar with the Rinnegan. No hatred, just a simple spar!"
Uchiha Shisui said in a relaxed tone!
"Hmm, if there is a chance, I also want to spar with him!"
Uchiha Itachi nodded and said!
【"You..."】
Naruto wanted to say something, but the words reached his lips and he couldn't say anything!
【"War is accompanied by casualties on both sides. The death of someone important is even harder to accept. One feels that the important person didn't have to die."】
Blood flowed from the corner of Nagato's mouth, but he continued to speak as if he didn't feel it:
【"Especially for your generation who don't know war, it is even harder to find the meaning of death. The result is only pain and hatred that doesn't know where to vent! Death like ants, hatred that lasts forever, and pain that cannot be healed! That is war, Naruto. This is what you must face next. Whether it's the book or you, it feels like someone arranged it for me. No, is this truly God's arrangement? It seems my mission ends here. Naruto, if it were you, perhaps you really could..."】
The tree made of paper slowly dissipated with Pain's words, drifting into the distance...
"Nagato, go in peace. I am truly proud to have a disciple like you!"
Jiraiya looked at the video, and tears flowed from the corners of his eyes inadvertently!
"Jiraiya, I have to say, your eye for picking disciples is indeed good!"
The Third Hokage praised!
"That guy Nagato has a very deep understanding of war!"
In the Cloud Village, the Fourth Raikage Ai said thoughtfully!
"Yes! Before, we were only focused on revenge, but we never thought about the continuation of hatred. On this point, Nagato sees much further than us!"
His father nodded and said!
【"I hope this time, you can become the flower of hope that never withers!"】
Konan took the chakra flower she made of paper and gave it to Naruto, saying!】
【After parting with Konan, Naruto used stones to make a simple tombstone for Jiraiya, then placed "The Tale of the Gutsy Ninja" and Konan's flower of hope in front of Jiraiya's grave, and then turned and walked back to Konoha!】
【"Well done."】
【"Teacher Kakashi!"】
At this moment, Naruto was already exhausted. He didn't even have the strength to walk. Fortunately, Kakashi arrived in time!】
【"Just stay on my back like this."】
Just like that, Kakashi carried Naruto back to Konoha!】
"Hehe, only like this does he look like a sixteen-year-old!"
Watching Naruto lying on Kakashi's back, revealing a smile, the people in the viewing area also laughed one after another!
"After all, Naruto is only 16 years old now. Many people at this age are still acting spoiled in front of their parents!"
"If you hadn't said it, I would have forgotten that Naruto is only sixteen! This child has really suffered!"
"Who says not! At such a young age, he has to shoulder the responsibility of saving the village and the ninja world! Sigh... we treated him so badly when he was young. Now that I think about it, I feel really bad!"
"That's right, if it weren't for Naruto, we would still be in a state of war, still killing each other!"
"No matter what, we owe Naruto too much!"
"What we need to do now is to practice hard so that we can help Naruto in the future!"
"Good!"
"I support it!"
"This is what a man should say!"
At this moment, the people in the viewing area all felt a sense of guilt!
Some were guilty of their previous behavior, and some felt ashamed that they couldn't help Naruto during the Fourth Shinobi World War!
At this moment, they all set a goal, which was to practice hard so they could help Naruto in the future!
"Minato, it's finally as you wished!"
In the Hokage Building, the Third Hokage listened to the Anbu's report and said with a complicated tone!
"I didn't expect to be able to mobilize their enthusiasm so quickly!"
Minato smiled slightly and said modestly!
"No matter what, we should be very busy next!"
"Yes!"
"It seems our training intensity needs to be strengthened, Itachi!"
Influenced by the surrounding environment, Uchiha Shisui said full of fighting spirit at this moment!
【"......"】
Uchiha Itachi rolled his eyes at him, but he did not refute!
"Nagato, we can't fall behind either!"
In the Rain Village, Yahiko said with boiling blood!
"Hmm, yes, in my past life, I gave everything to Naruto. This time, I want to fight alongside Naruto!"
Nagato nodded and said seriously!
"I won't lose either!"
Konan, who was on the side, said with a smile!.
