Naruto: Traveling Through Time Starting with Seizing the Dragon Vein

However, faced with Yahiko's heartfelt call, the adult Nagato, sitting in the mechanical chair, didn't even lift his eyelids.

"Dreams? Smiles?"

Nagato seemed to hear some kind of ridiculous fairy tale.

"What do you false illusions know?"

"You wear his sunny face and say the things he once said... but that only makes me feel more pathetic."

Nagato slowly raised his head:

"You...don't understand what suffering is at all."

“Nagato! I…” Yahiko wanted to retort urgently.

"Shut up!"

Nagato suddenly interrupted, unleashing a suffocating pressure from his Rinnegan.

"People don't understand suffering, and they will never understand each other."

"Because you have never experienced the same despair, never suffered the pain of losing a loved one, the 'peace' and 'dreams' you speak of are as worthless, cold, and fragile as this torrential rain!"

"Only when the whole world has tasted the same pain, and faced with absolute fear and suffering, will humanity stop its endless slaughter."

"This is the only path to true peace!"

Nagato slowly raised his withered, bony hand, which was covered in black rods, and pointed it at Yahiko.

"Since you cannot understand God's suffering, then take your false dreams and return to nothingness."

Just as the adult Nagato was about to use repulsive force to completely crush the "mind-disturbing illusion" in front of her.

"Buzz—!!!"

In the center of the secret room, a spiral-shaped spatial distortion suddenly appeared without warning!

"Kamui?!"

The adult Nagato shuddered violently.

Is it that masked man who calls himself Uchiha Madara?

How did he suddenly appear here?

However, when the ripples in space dissipated.

Emerging from the purplish-black vortex was a mysterious man wearing a black trench coat.

Uchiha Tsuki!

"Tsuki-sensei!" Yahiko exclaimed in surprise.

The adult Nagato's pupils suddenly contracted to the size of a pinhead.

He couldn't possibly not know this man who was stirring up the ninja world.

"So you're the one who created these illusions?" Nagato asked coldly, preparing to fight to the death.

Uchiha Yue did not answer.

He stood quietly between Yahiko and the adult Nagato, his dark eyes slowly rising.

"People don't understand pain? That's true, but I don't have time to fool around with you right now."

Since words cannot help you understand each other, let's skip this step.

"Buzz!"

In an instant, the moon's eyes transformed into deep starlight dice patterns!

"Limited monthly reading!"

Although it couldn't achieve the power to directly create parallel universes like in the movie, and although it was a Yin Release technique he created by combining the spiritual energy from the Ming Seal, even the adult Nagato with the Rinnegan couldn't put up any resistance in the face of the countless chakra batteries connected to the Ming Seal!

"Bang!"

The real-life escape room collapsed instantly.

Both the young Yahiko and the adult Nagato felt a sudden, intense dizziness as their consciousness was forcibly detached from their bodies and plunged into a mental world consisting only of black and white.

……

"Tick...tick..."

Young Yahiko finds himself losing control of his body, becoming a first-person observer, forcibly inserted into the memories of "adult Nagato"!

From that bridge onward, fate, without the help of Yue-senpai, took a different turn.

In those ruins, they didn't get a hot meal; instead, they experienced endless hunger and cold.

Then, the scene changes.

In that never-ending rainy season, they finally encountered a glimmer of light.

Jiraiya-sensei.

Three short years together, the red and green wooden planks of the Frog brand, the crackling warm fireplace, and the ninjutsu they were taught to protect themselves.

Those were the only happy times Nagato had in that period of his life. Bearing this gratitude and hope in their hearts, they founded the first Akatsuki, hoping to change this weeping nation through communication and understanding.

However, this innocent happiness was ruthlessly shattered in that muddy canyon!

In my line of sight, the rain was like blood.

"If you want to save this woman's life, use this kunai to kill your leader!"

On the cliff, Xiao Nan was tied to an explosive talisman pillar, crying and begging them to escape.

Yahiko felt his own (Nagato's) hands trembling violently.

"No...no..." Yahiko screamed frantically deep within his consciousness.

However, the next second.

He "witnessed" that the young man who looked exactly like him, with orange hair, with a relieved and resolute smile, charged at the kunai without hesitation!

"Pfft!"

Hot blood splattered onto Nagato's face.

"Nagato...you and Konan, you must survive..."

Those were my last words in this time and space.

Immediately following was an indescribable, excruciating pain!

Yahiko experienced the excruciating pain of having dozens of thick black rods pierce his back as the "Outer Path Statue" emerged from the ground, tearing his skin and pulling out his tendons!

He sensed the despair of Nagato's collapsing faith as he held his own corpse!

"So... this is the pain Nagato was talking about..."

……

at the same time.

On the other side of the illusion, the consciousness of the adult Nagato was also forcibly inserted into the memories of the "young Yahiko".

He "saw" the ruined bridge archway in the pouring rain, and saw the man in the black trench coat who seemed like a god descending to earth, placing steaming hot rice balls in front of them.

"Welcome to Loulan, little devils."

Then, the world before my eyes suddenly opened up.

Nagato experienced the same profound awe that Yahiko felt when he first saw the towering metal towers of the Loulan underground city and the rainbow reflected in the fountain.

He could feel the energy of Yahiko arguing with Obito, Nawaki, and the other "idiots" under the sunlight about who should be the leader of the organization.

He felt the profound teachings of Senior Moon as he patiently explained the drawbacks of the ninja world and shaped their independent personalities in front of the blackboard.

There was no pain, no killing, no sacrifice.

Only after their teammates have sweated it out on the training field, do they gather around to eat barbecue and recklessly plan for a bright future of "breaking the old world and ushering in the dawn"!

"breaking Dawn……"

Chapter 206 Yahiko is dead, this world has chosen him.

As Nagato's consciousness became deeply entangled in the illusion, the battlefield outside underwent a dramatic change in an instant.

In the plaza below the Tower of God in Amegakure.

"Shinra Ten..."

Pain coldly raised his hand, preparing to unleash a ninjutsu on the young Nagato in front of him.

However, before he could finish speaking, his emotionless Rinnegan suddenly lost all its luster.

His raised arm froze in mid-air.

"Bang! Thump..."

Not only the Heavenly Dao, but also the remnants of the Asura Dao, the Human Dao, the Animal Dao, the Hungry Ghost Dao, and the Hell Dao all collapsed to the ground at the same time!

The giant hellhounds and Yata no Naga, summoned by the spirits, lost their chakra support and with a "bang," turned into white smoke and dissipated into the torrential rain.

All six Paths of Pain have crashed!

"What's going on?!"

The young Nagato, who was on high alert, was stunned.

In mid-air, the adult Xiao Nan, who was fiercely fighting with the young Xiao Nan, suddenly stopped moving.

She looked down in horror at the Six Paths of Pain lying below like broken puppets, her face filled with extreme panic!

The Six Paths of Pain are extensions of Nagato's will. Only when Nagato himself suffers an extremely fatal blow or even loses consciousness will the Six Paths stop simultaneously!

"Nagato!!!"

The adult Xiao Nan could no longer care about the battle in front of her. Her paper wings suddenly flapped, turning into a white streak of light, and she flew madly towards the top of the Tower of God!

"Let's go too! Yahiko's over there!"

Young Konan and Nagato exchanged a glance and immediately followed closely behind.
