The Hyuga clan that started in Konoha

Logically speaking, this suggestion is absolutely feasible, so the Third Hokage agreed.

But Danzo actually has selfish motives.

He did this only to get the greatest credit for victory in the Third Ninja World War so that he could try to compete for the position of the next Hokage.

He had several conflicts and contradictions with the Third Hokage, and was eventually suppressed by the other party because of his status. This made Danzo more eager for the position of Hokage, and his heart gradually became distorted.

It is no exaggeration to say that the position of Hokage has become Danzo's obsession.

After arriving in the Land of Rain, Danzo contacted Hanzo as soon as possible and proposed to help the other party destroy the "Akatsuki" organization.

However, Hanzo and the Rain Kingdom would later have to form an alliance with Konoha during the Third Shinobi World War.

Considering his own ruling position, Hanzo finally agreed to Danzo's request.

Although Nagato, Yahiko, and Konan knew that Danzo and Hanzo of Konoha had joined forces, they actually didn't know that it was Danzo who came up with this idea and set the trap!

The ending was just as Hanzo and Danzo had expected. The Akatsuki organization was basically completely wiped out by them.

Now, there are only these three people left.

Although Danzo wanted to finish the mission quickly,

After all, Hanzo is the leader of the Rain Country, and he has no right to interfere in other people's affairs.

"Stop, Nagato, leave me alone, both of you run away!" Seeing that Hanzo wanted his two good friends to kill each other, Konan shouted loudly, trying to stop the two partners.

The three of them became Jiraiya's disciples and grew up together. They can be said to be best friends. Konan is absolutely unwilling to exchange the life of one of his companions for his own survival.

"Nagato, kill me." However, Yahiko always valued the lives of his two companions more than his own, so he made a request to Nagato immediately.

After hearing Yahiko's words, Nagato stared blankly at Yahiko who had a serious expression on his face.

At this time, Nagato recalled what he had said to Jiraiya.

"I just wanted to protect those two people, no matter how painful it would be." These words are still deeply engraved in my mind.

"Nagato!" Yahiko shouted loudly to Nagato.

"Stop!" Xiaonan also shouted loudly.

"Hurry up, it doesn't matter if this woman dies?" Hanzo's cold voice came, wanting Nagato to make a decision as soon as possible.

The rain slid down Nagato's cheeks, his pupils dilated, and there were circles of lines in his purple eyeballs, making him look noble and mysterious.

Both sides are companions that he swore to protect for his whole life, which makes Nagato fall into incomparable torment.

However, that devil-like voice asked me to choose between the two.

Nagato walked over tremblingly, and absentmindedly pulled out the kunai that was stuck not far in front of him, while gasping for breath.

Suddenly, Nagato regained some spirit, as if he had thought of something. He looked up the slope and whispered, "Konan."

Then he held the dagger and tried to turn towards Yahiko.

He thought of a way, a way that could save Konan at the same time without sacrificing Yahiko.

As long as I can unleash the power of these eyes.

"Yahiko..." Nagato was just about to tell Yahiko that he had thought of a way to save Konan, but a figure suddenly ran into his arms.

"laugh"

The sound of a kunai piercing flesh reached Nagato's ears.

At the same time, I felt a weight on my chest and shoulders.

It was Yahiko's figure that was imprinted in Nagato's pupils, and the kunai in his hand had already pierced into Yahiko's heart.

"Together with Konan, you must survive no matter what. You are the savior of this world. It is you, actually..." Blood flowed from the corners of Yahiko's mouth.

Yahiko was dying after his heart was pierced by a kunai, but he was still worried about his two companions before he died.

He still had something else he wanted to say to Nagato.

No, he actually had a lot more to say to Nagato and Konan, but it seemed like he no longer had the chance.

This was Yahiko's last thought before his eyes fell into darkness and he lost consciousness.

Yahiko's voice became fainter and fainter in Nagato's ears, until he stopped breathing and died completely.

"boom"

Yahiko's body fell on the rain-soaked ground, and the blood flowing from his body gradually dyed the ground beneath him red.

However, the rain showed no sign of stopping.

Chapter 145 Nagato's Darkening

"Yahiko!" Seeing her good friend die at the hands of another good friend, Konan shouted Yahiko's name at the top of her lungs.

The rain ran down Xiaonan's beautiful cheeks, but it was no longer clear whether it was rain or tears.

In the end, the kidnapped Xiaonan could only kneel on the ground and cry in pain.

As for Nagato, he stood there in a daze in the rain, unable to utter a word.

He was still thinking about the last words Yahiko said to him, and the moment when the kunai in his hand pierced his friend's heart.

Looking at all this, Hanzo smiled coldly.

"It's finally over." Danzo also whispered.

"Go!" With Hanzo's order, all the ninjas around recognized the kunai in their hands at the same time.

The target of the kunai was Nagato, who was in pain and daze.

Hanzo had no intention of letting these three people go from the beginning.

He was just interested and wanted to see a good show, and he was very satisfied with the drama.

Now it's time to let this drama come to an end.

Therefore, Hanzo ordered his men to attack Nagato without hesitation.

Dense kunai flew towards Nagato.

Nagato was still recalling what his good friend Yahiko once said.

"I have a huge dream. If this world is always in war, I want to become the god of this world!"

The more serious Yahiko was when he said this, the more painful Nagato is at this moment.

Seeing that the kunai was about to hit him, Nagato raised his right hand.

In an instant, the dense sound of "clang clang clang" echoed throughout the battlefield.

Looking around, all the kunai flying towards Nagato were collectively blocked by an invisible wall of air the moment Nagato raised his hand.

“It actually bounced off!”

"How did you do it?"

Hanzo's men looked at the incredible scene in front of them in amazement.

Nagato half-crouched down, then jumped lightly onto the hillside and came to Konan's side.

Hanzo was also shocked by this sudden change.

Fearing Nagato's ability to deflect all kunai with one hand, Hanzo did not dare to engage in close combat with Nagato and simply jumped back and retreated.

Moreover, it's more than just fear.

In addition, Hanzo also made arrangements on the land beneath Konan.

This is a trap set to prevent members of the Akatsuki organization from playing by their own rules and directly trying to rescue the hostages.

It was also a funeral prepared for the woman.

This is also an idea provided by Danzo. . . . .

Hanzo slapped the ground with his right hand.

In an instant, the ground beneath Xiaonan turned into a piece of detonating talisman.

Under Hanzo's control, these detonating tags surrounded Konan and Nagato at the same time.

Nagato, who was watching all this, originally had the chance to avoid this wave of attacks by himself, but in order to save Konan, whose hands and feet were tied, he gave up the plan to escape alone.

Yahiko is no longer with us, but his words are still echoing in his ears. If he can't even save Konan, how can he have the face to face the dead Yahiko!

Therefore, Nagato quickly untied the ropes that bound Konan's hands and feet, but the detonating tags also climbed up Nagato's legs at the same time.

"boom"

With a loud bang, all the detonating tags were detonated by Hanzo at the same time, and a huge fire and explosion came from where Nagato and Konan were.

Smoke and dust filled the vision of everyone at the scene.

"Did it succeed?" Hanzo said to himself.

Looking at the center of the explosion, he thought that it was impossible for the two of them to survive after being directly hit by so many explosive tags.

Hanzo was frightened by Nagato's strange ability just now, but now he has finally relaxed.

When the smoke cleared, the scene before everyone present was simply unbelievable!

The raging fire was still burning Nagato's legs, but he seemed to be unaffected at all.

Not only that, Nagato even put the bodies of Konan and Yahiko aside.

After the flames died down, one could see that Nagato's legs had large areas of burns, and in some places the flesh was even roasted.

"Nagato." Konan on the side looked at Nagato worriedly and shouted.

Yahiko's body was right next to him, and Nagato's legs were also seriously injured. Konan had never felt so powerless before.

If it weren't for me, Yahiko wouldn't have died and Nagato wouldn't have been injured. . . . .

From this moment on, Xiaonan made a decision in his heart.

From now on, Nagato's will is her will. She will live for Nagato, and no matter what Nagato wants to do, she will choose to support him.

Even if it's wrong, even if it's against the world!

"Konan, hold Yahiko and don't move." The pain in the body can never compare to the pain in the heart. In order to avoid hurting Konan later, Nagato said softly.

"You're quite capable, kid. You were hit by my Fire Style but still managed to escape." Hanzo said, looking at Nagato who was still alive.

It turned out that the explosion just now was not just a detonating tag, but Hanzo's signature fire-style ninjutsu - the Exploding Flame Array!

Hanzo once used this ninjutsu during World War II to protect Jiraiya from the explosion even though he used the ninjutsu - Needle Jizo to protect Tsunade.

From this we can see the powerful power of this ninjutsu.

The power of the explosion was blocked by Nagato, but the burning damage still put Nagato's legs on the verge of being scrapped.

After hearing Hanzo's words, Nagato widened his eyes and looked at his enemy fiercely.

If it weren't for Hanzo, the members of Akatsuki would not have died, Yahiko would not have died, and all these painful experiences would not have happened!

Nagato has decided that he must kill Hanzo no matter what.

Even if it means sacrificing everything he has, Nagato will do it!

"You don't seem to be an ordinary kid. Those eyes..." Hanzo also noticed Nagato's mysterious purple pupils with circles of lines, so he frowned and said in a deep voice.

Hanzo looked at Nagato's eyes and fell into deep thought. He was still trying to remember if he had heard of or seen these eyes somewhere before.

But on the other side, Danzo's roots did not notice all this.

When they saw that Nagato was still alive, the first thing they wanted to do was kill him.

The leader of the Root was as dissatisfied as Danzo that Hanzo had taken so long to kill the little devils.

Danzo, who was hiding in the dark, nodded to the leader of the Root, then hid himself again and watched everything.

For some reason, Danzo felt a sense of uneasiness in his heart at this moment.

The source of that uneasiness was the red-haired boy named Nagato.

Therefore, Danzo no longer wanted to wait for Hanzo. He chose to let the Root take action directly and make sure to kill the young man who posed a threat to him with one blow!

"Do it!"

At the command of the Root leader, all members rushed towards Nagato.
