Konoha, reported by the Fourth Hokage at the beginning

"Let me see what you can bring to the future of this ninja world."

After speaking, Li Yao clasped his hands together and used the psychic technique to channel Yahiko's corpse back.

Xiaonan hugged Yahiko's body. Li Yao glanced at Naruto one last time. Seeing that he had no intention of stopping him, he smiled slightly in his heart, and then said to Xiaonan: "Xiaonan, let's go home."

Konan removed the big tree created by Zhidun, Nagato summoned the big bird again, and the two took Yahiko to sit on the psychic beast big bird and leave.

Naruto watched the whole process without stopping him, but he didn't say another word either.

Sure enough, hatred is not so easy to resolve.

Not killing Nagato was already Naruto's biggest concession. It was impossible for him and Nagato to live in harmony.

But... even Naruto is like this, how can the hatred in the hearts of the other people whose sons and fathers were killed by Nagato be resolved?

……

"No, this is wrong!!!"

Now that Li Yao is gone, his destiny has indeed changed dramatically as in the original work, but this change is obviously different from the one in the dream!

At Mt. Myoki, by the waterfall pond, Gamamaru, who was using the telescope technique to watch the meeting between Naruto and Nagato, had already knitted his brows.

"No, this isn't right!"

"What's wrong..." Gamabunta on the side asked doubtfully, holding a cigarette rod in his mouth.

Gamamaru ignored Gamabunta and recalled the dream world in his mind.

In that world, after Nagato was persuaded, all the people who died in Konoha in this battle came back to life. Although I didn't see the hand of Nagato, this kind of ninjutsu to resurrect people can only be done by the reincarnation eye. .

As Gamamaru who once led the Six Paths Sage to practice celestial arts, he knew the power of the Samsara Eye very well.

Only Nagato can resurrect the dead in Konoha.

But now, Nagato has been convinced and recognized Naruto's peace, but why didn't he take action to resurrect the people who died in Konoha in this battle?

Toadwan was puzzled.

But he knew one thing: the direction of this world had deviated greatly.

Peace or destruction?

The future blurred again at this moment.

"No, I have to go to bed!"

The uneasy Gamamaru jumped away. He wanted to sleep and dream, and go to the dream world to see what would happen in the future.

The prophecy went awry, which made Gamamaru very insecure.

……

"That's...Penn's psychic beast!"

"Naruto!"

At the foot of the mountain, Shikaku and Haiichi were shocked when they saw the psychic beast Otori suddenly appearing on the top of the mountain and flying away. Pain was gone, what happened to Naruto?

The two of them were worried about Naruto, and regardless of Naruto asking them to wait, they hurried up the mountain with an ANBU ninja who was accompanying them.

"Naruto!"

When they arrived at the top of the mountain, the three of them saw Naruto standing there, looking at the direction in which the psychic beast Otori left. He had no physical injuries and his chakra was stable.

The three of them took a quick look around, but there was no sign of a fierce battle.

The three of them came to Naruto, and Haiichi asked in confusion: "What's going on? Where is Pain? He escaped?"

Naruto said, "I didn't kill them."

"What!" The ANBU ninja who followed was a little anxious and said in a questioning tone: "Naruto, that's Pain who made the village like that. How can you let them go?"

This Anbu ninja was very unhappy with Naruto's decision. He was the only one left in his team. The other three companions died at the hands of Pain, and even his family was probably in danger.

In this situation, how could Naruto just let Pain go.

Naruto said: "They will no longer be hostile to Konoha."

Are you saying that they are not hostile if they are not hostile?

Naruto's words shocked the ANBU ninja. He could not accept such an explanation and said, "So...just because of this...you let go of the enemy who killed so many of Konoha's companions?"

So what if the other party is no longer hostile to Konoha in the future?

Pain has killed so many people in Konoha and destroyed Konoha like this. Should he let him go just because he is no longer hostile to Konoha?

The ANBU ninja really didn't understand Naruto's logic.

Shikaku and Haiichi also looked at Naruto with complicated expressions at this time. They didn't know why Naruto made such a decision.

But out of trust in Naruto, or Jiraiya and Tsunade, and the current situation in the village, the two did not blame Naruto.

The key is that the enemies have all escaped now, and they have no means of flying. The only one who can fly, Sai, also died in the previous battle, so they can't pursue him even if they want to.

And without Naruto, what would they do even if they catch up?

Judging from the psychic beast Big Bird just now, the body that controls Payne behind the scenes is likely to use the abilities of six Payne.

Even if they catch up, they can't do anything to defeat the enemy.

So even if the two of them disagreed with Naruto's decision, they didn't say much.

But ANBU ninjas are different. They are a secret force directly under the Hokage. Their mission is to protect the Hokage, protect Konoha, and eradicate all enemies that threaten Konoha.

Pain is no longer just a threat to Konoha, but an enemy that has caused significant damage to Konoha.

Their duty and persistence told him that Payne must not be let go.

"Humph!"

"I will not let go of anyone who hurts my comrades."

Seeing that Naruto had no intention of taking action, the ANBU ninja snorted coldly, turned around and chased in the direction where the psychic beast Otori flew.

call out!

Naruto suddenly stopped in front of the ANBU ninja and said: "Please believe me, Nagato and the others will no longer be hostile to Konoha. They are no longer enemies. We cannot let hatred continue, otherwise more people will die. .”

"Get out of the way." The ANBU ninja took out the kunai with both hands and did not listen to Naruto's explanation at all. He stared at Naruto and said coldly, "I don't care about hatred. The accusation of the ANBU is to destroy all enemies that threaten Konoha. "

"Please." Naruto suddenly knelt down and said: "They are not enemies. They were once disciples of Master Jiraiya. Their parents were also killed by Konoha's ninjas. They... they have already killed themselves. The peace that Laiya longed for was entrusted to me, I believe..."

"enough!"

The Anbu interrupted Naruto loudly, his eyes sharp as he said, "Naruto, don't forget your identity. You are just a Genin. Do you know what it means for a Genin to hinder the Anbu from carrying out their mission?"

"Naruto!"

Shikaku came to Naruto, helped Naruto up, and said, "Listen, you didn't let Pain go. They escaped after you defeated them. Do you understand?"

"Ah..." Naruto was stunned for a moment, unable to react. Did Nagato and the others let him go? Why do you say they escaped on their own?

Haiyi followed and said: "That's right Naruto, listen to Shikaku, Pain escaped on his own, don't stop the ANBU's actions."

As a genin, even if Naruto had a special status, once he was accused of obstructing ANBU's operations, it would be tantamount to betraying the village.

Moreover, the difference between Pain being defeated by Naruto and running away and Naruto letting Pain go was too big, too big for Naruto to bear.

The two of them were a little worried and didn't want the current Naruto to be alienated from the village.

The village could no longer afford to lose Naruto.

Shikaku and Haiichi winked at the ANBU ninja at the same time, now was not the time to force Naruto to the opposite side of the village.

The ANBU ninja understood the look in Shikaku and Haiichi's eyes, frowned and thought for a moment, then put away the kunai, didn't bother to say more to Naruto, turned around and left, without continuing to chase Pain.

Seeing this, Naruto immediately felt relieved, thinking that he had convinced the other party, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, as if the era of mutual understanding had finally come.

Chapter 379 The way to end hatred

"Naruto……"

On the way down the mountain, in the mezzanine space, Jiraiya had been following Naruto. Looking at the excited expression on Naruto's face, he felt bitter and complicated in his heart.

He was happy that Naruto and Nagato were able to reconcile, proving that Naruto was truly the child of the prophecy.

But the premise of all this is that Nagato is real.

And... thinking of the doubts and anger of the ANBU ninjas towards Naruto's decision just now, Jiraiya knew that hatred was not so easy to resolve.

Next, facing the hatred in the hearts of the surviving people in the village, what should Naruto do?

Jiraiya was in despair. After many years, he still couldn't see the hope of the era of mutual understanding that he longed for.

Even now that Naruto and Nagato have resolved their hatred, Jiraiya still has no hope of true peace coming.

"It's so desperate!"

Li Yao's voice suddenly sounded, and Jiraiya turned around to look, only to see that bastard who used illusions to control Tsunade and kept contradicting her, walking beside him at some point.

"Damn bastard!"

"It's all you!"

Jiraiya punched Li Yao angrily, but stopped just a fist away from Li Yao. No matter how hard Jiraiya tried, he couldn't punch him. His body automatically stopped him from attacking Li Yao. .

Li Yao kept walking and continued to follow Naruto. Seeing the happy look on Naruto's face, he was looking forward to what interesting scenes would appear next.

Jiraiya followed, walked to the left of Li Yao, and turned to stare at him fiercely.

"If it weren't for you, Konoha wouldn't have suffered such a huge loss!"

"Naruto wouldn't..."

If Li Yao hadn't used some unknown means to manipulate Pain's Six Paths and caused huge casualties to Konoha, Naruto and Nagato would definitely win the trust of everyone in Konoha after they reconciled.

But now, because of Li Yao.

Konoha suffered heavy casualties, and the excessive hatred made it impossible for the survivors to treat Naruto like a hero.

Because Nagato is not dead.

Even if the news spread that Nagato was let go by Naruto, the hatred of the survivors of the village that fell on Nagato would most likely be transferred to Naruto.

The culprit behind all of this is the bastard in front of me.

Jiraiya stared at Li Yao with his eyes that seemed to be capable of killing someone.

Haha... Facing Jiraiya's cannibalistic gaze, Li Yao put his head in his hands, leaned back slightly, glanced at Jiraiya with a relaxed expression, and said with a smile: "Do you know how to end hatred?"

Hearing this, Jiraiya was stunned, and his eyes of hatred softened. He took a closer look at Li Yao and saw that this guy looked like he knew. Such a bastard also longs for peace? Jiraiya couldn't help but think to himself, and then asked curiously: "How do you want to resolve it?"

"Haha!" Li Yao laughed loudly, and then said as a matter of course: "Of course, you should kill all the enemies who hate you. If there are no enemies who hate you, then the hatred will naturally end."

The idiom "cut the grass at its roots" vividly explains the simplest way to end the spread of hatred.

Any mutual understanding is deceptive. The only way to end hatred is to eradicate it.

But it was obvious that Jiraiya did not agree with Li Yao's statement.

"You are the devil!"

Jiraiya stopped in vain, stared at Li Yao's back as he continued to move forward, and said with a heavy expression.

Ha ha!

Li Yao shook his head and chuckled, noncommittal.

There's nothing wrong with the devil!

He is just a human being, a selfish human being.

He will also be kind to his friends and family.

But obviously, no one in this world is his recognized friend, and no one is his recognized family member.

Even his so-called great son has been taken away by him now. Li Yao doesn't care at all how many people die in this world.

After the fun is over, Naruto can pull out the nine tails in his body to make Obito's clone become the Ten-Tails Jinchuuriki, and master the blood successor's snare. Then he can go back to the original Naruto world and enjoy his journey of revenge.

How many years!

That guy from the third generation has been living happily for many years. If he is allowed to continue living so leisurely, the hatred accumulated in Li Yao's heart will be uncontrollable.
