He's in the Marvel universe, and his first step is marrying Scarlet Witch.

Chapter 411 The Establishment of the Ninja Empire (Third Update)

"At this point, I have no choice but to give it my all!"

Pretending to be beaten up by Nagato, Li Chuan also opened the eighth gate of the Eight Gates Formation, instantly increasing his momentum.

Li Chuan, in Sage Mode and with all Eight Gates open, could easily crush Nagato at this moment, but of course he couldn't do that. Instead, he began a final, evenly matched battle.

The people, who had been in despair, had their hopes rekindled.

"I never imagined that the Fifth Hokage had surpassed the God of Shinobi and reached the level of the Sage of Six Paths."

The Fourth Raikage, A, stood at the very front of everyone, watching Madara Uchiha and Li Chuan, who were evenly matched in the sky, and couldn't help but sigh.

To be honest, even he, who is known for his speed and strength, could hardly see the two fighting figures anymore.

If you were to face one of them, you'd probably be dead in an instant before you even had time to react.

"Yes, if it weren't for the Fifth Hokage, our Hidden Mist Village and Hidden Cloud Village would probably have been destroyed by now."

Mei Godai, the Mizukage, couldn't help but nod.

Clearly, given the strength Nagato has demonstrated, after wiping out Iwagakure, eliminating Kirigakure and Kumogakure would be a piece of cake.

"If it weren't for the Fifth Hokage, the Fourth Shinobi World War would probably have started with the destruction of Konoha."

The Third Hokage and other Konoha leaders didn't say this aloud, but that's what they all thought at that moment.

It's important to know that the first ninja village Akatsuki attacked was Konoha, and at that time, they didn't have the strength they have now. With just the Six Paths and Akatsuki's executives, they almost destroyed Konoha.

Danzo wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. He was very grateful, not just grateful that Konoha had a master like Li Chuan.

Instead, he was glad that when Li Chuan was originally chosen as the fifth generation leader, he had considered assassinating him for a period of time, but ultimately stopped himself from doing so.

Otherwise, he might already be a corpse.

"Nagato, stop. You want world peace, but there's no need to resort to such extreme measures. I believe everyone has already been warned; at least for the foreseeable future, there won't be any more wars!"

Half an hour later, Li Chuan pretended to be a little out of breath and advised.

Nagato simply shook his head:

"What I want is not short-term peace, but lasting peace."

"Since you remain so stubborn, then this is the only way I can do it!"

Upon hearing this, Li Chuan stepped back a short distance, and a small black energy ball began to rapidly appear in his hand. The ball then expanded rapidly and was held above his head.

Upon seeing this, Nagato mimicked Li Chuan's actions exactly, gathering a small ball of the same size and calmly stating:

"I know what I'm supposed to do. You're supposed to do what the Sage of Six Paths did and use Chibaku Tensei to create a moon to seal me in the sky. But don't forget, I can do that too."

"I know you can too."

Li Chuan's expression also calmed down.

Nagato's expression changed instantly:

"So this is your plan. You want to be sealed away with me. Is it really worth sacrificing your life for these people who think about war every day?"

The group of ninjas below immediately understood what the two meant upon hearing their conversation.

Legend has it that the moon in the sky was created by the Sage of Six Paths using his strongest sealing technique to seal monsters. Now that Li Chuan is clearly unable to defeat Nagato, he wants to use this sealing technique to seal Nagato.

To protect himself, Nagato could also use this sealing technique to seal Li Chuan.

So if the two of them make a move now, Nagato and Li Chuan will be sealed in the sky at the same time, and from then on, there will be two more moons in the sky.

At this moment, they understood what Li Chuan meant by "to return to the same place," and they felt boundless gratitude and respect for Li Chuan.

"It's worth it. At the beginning of life, people are inherently good. I've always felt that it's the environment that has created the current situation in the ninja world. Everyone's nature is kind."

Although I sacrificed myself this time, if my sacrifice can save them all, then it was worth it.

I believe they will definitely change after this!

"Your battle strategy is sound, but I might not necessarily do it your way. What if I didn't use Planetary Devastation to seal you, but instead created a meteorite the size of the moon and smashed it down?"

Nagato was silent for a moment, then pointed to the Allied Shinobi Forces below.

"At that time, everyone below will die. Not only will they die, but the entire continent will be devastated. In the end, you will probably be the only one who survives."

So if you choose to seal me, I will indeed be sealed, but everyone else will have to perish with me.

"What?!!"

Upon hearing Nagato's words, everyone immediately panicked.

Many of them came here today prepared to die, though of course, it would be best if they could survive.

But they hoped that their deaths would allow their families in the village to continue living well.

If everyone on this continent dies by then, what's the point of their battle?

"I don't think you would do that. What you want is world peace. If the people on the mainland die, your dream will also be shattered."

Li Chuan's face also showed an extremely solemn expression, as if what Nagato said was true.

In fact, let alone Nagato, even he himself could not have created a planet as large as the moon. It was purely meant to scare the ninjas in all the villages below, and it seems that he really did scare them.

Whether I do it or not depends on your next decision.

Nagato's face turned serious, a rare occurrence for him.

Li Chuan frowned:

"What do you mean? I can't let you destroy our remaining three villages."

"No, that's not what I meant. After fighting with you for so long, hearing your words 'At the beginning of life, people are inherently good' has made me change my mind."

Perhaps it really isn't necessary to destroy all the ninjas.

We only need to establish a unified country, a unified empire, and stop dividing into so many villages, so that all resources can be centrally distributed.

There will be no need to fight and wage war for interests and resources anymore.

There is no Konoha, no Amegakure, no Sunagakure, Iwagakure, or Kumogakure; there is only a ninja empire.

The Daimyo are the civil officials representing the empire, and the Kage of each major ninja village are the military officials representing the empire. If everyone works together to build this empire well, then everyone will live happily.

The cycle of hatred is thus broken.

Nagato recited all the lines that Li Chuan had prepared in advance with a serious expression.

Li Chuan also showed a hesitant expression.

"Agree to my terms and everyone will live; refuse my terms and everyone except you will die."

Nagato coldly uttered words that terrified all the ninjas below.
