As the electric arc of the Tenbu sword in Uchiha Makoto's hand flashed, Nagato's body twitched slightly.
The moment the sword pierced Nagato's heart, a large number of tadpole-like black curse marks densely covered the surface of the heart.
The curse seal quickly contracted and then expanded, maintaining a strange rhythm.
"Ah~"
Nagato suddenly let out a roar of pain.
Uchiha Makoto immediately increased the chakra output on the Tenbu sword. When the arc flashed, the black curse seal was quickly eliminated.
At the same time, he waved his other hand gently, and a golden ball of light sank into Nagato's body.
The next second, Uchiha Makoto pulled out the Tenbulu sword.
laugh!
Blood spurted out from Nagato's heart, and after the sword was pulled out, a burnt hole suddenly appeared in his heart.
Nagato's aura dropped rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his entire mental state instantly became depressed.
Fortunately, Nagato had the bloodline of the Uzumaki clan, and was born with a large amount of chakra and strong vitality. Otherwise, just a scorched hole in the heart would cause ordinary people to die instantly.
Even so, Nagato was dying at the moment.
However, the moment the golden light ball sank into Nagato's body, his aura instantly returned.
"Huh? This is it?"
Nagato looked shocked. At that moment, he thought he had been deceived by Uchiha Makoto. In fact, he was more disappointed than angry because he was really optimistic about Uchiha Makoto's plan and felt that this was the real path to peace. path of.
It's just that Uchiha Makoto's sword just now made him feel like his dream was shattered.
However, when Uchiha Makoto pulled out the sword and released a ball of golden chakra at the same time, Nagato felt that he had misunderstood.
Because the moment the golden chakra light group submerged into his body, he felt a warm current surge through his body. The severe pain in his heart quickly subsided, and something called life force burst out in his body.
In his early years, he used the Heretic Demon to drain away all the essence of his body. Even if he had the blood of the Uzumaki clan, he would not be able to withstand such a huge loss of life force.
Therefore, even if Nagato's legs were not injured by the detonating talisman, he could not move freely. Normally, he would focus on cultivation.
But at this moment, he felt that his legs, which he had lost consciousness for a long time, felt numb, itchy and painful.
"Nagato!"
Uchiha Makoto's action just now lasted only a moment. Just when he pierced Nagato's heart, pulled out the Tenbu-ryu sword, and sent Yang Release Chakra and the [Crazy Outlaw Armor] into his body, Konan's attack Already in front of him.
Uchiha Makoto flipped his right hand, and the Tenbu-ryu sword circled around his wrist, and then returned to the scabbard on his waist.
With a wave of his left hand, a wall of wind stood in front of him, and all of Xiaonan's attacks were blocked by the wall.
The next moment, Konan bypassed the wind wall and appeared in front of Uchiha Makoto again.
brush!
Uchiha Makoto flashed and appeared behind Konan. He decoded the seal with his right hand and then touched the inside of Konan's right arm with his finger.
At this moment, Xiao Nan suddenly felt a numbness in the right half of his body, and the chakra flow in his body felt stagnant.
'So fast! How can this be? Shiki Paper Dance didn’t take effect? '
Konan was shocked. She was attacked by Makoto Uchiha before she could complete turning her body into paper.
Uchiha Makoto's speed was so fast that she had no time to react.
Moreover, when Konan uses Shiki Paper Dance, her body turns into paper and she is immune to physical attacks, including most ninjutsu attacks. Only oil is her nemesis, but Uchiha Makoto did not use oil either.
It's a sealing technique!
While the left side of his body was not completely paralyzed, Konan turned sideways, and his left arm instantly turned into a high-speed rotating paper shuriken, flying towards Uchiha Makoto.
Uchiha Makoto grabbed hold of her hands and dodged the attack. At the same time, he cut Konan's arms behind her back and locked her firmly.
"Sister Xiaonan, Master Jiraiya didn't tell me that you have such a reckless personality!" Uchiha Makoto smiled slightly.
Then he formed a seal with one hand again, hit the inside of Xiaonan's right arm, and released the seal. At the same time, he pushed gently. Xiaonan staggered and rushed forward for a few steps. Then he stabilized his body and turned around. Come.
At this time, she finally noticed that Nagato's face was hot and white smoke was rising from his forehead. He didn't look like he was seriously injured.
Reminiscent of Uchiha Makoto's previous conversation with Nagato, with his strength there was no need for a sneak attack, especially when Nagato was trying to hand over a pair of Rinnegan eyes to him, there was even less need for a sneak attack when he had already stopped him. .
Moreover, if Uchiha Makoto were to harm Nagato, he himself would not be immune just now.
At this moment, the wound on Nagato's chest had stopped bleeding and was healing quickly. Although Konan didn't understand Uchiha Makoto's purpose, he also knew that his behavior just now was not to hurt Nagato.
"This is......"
Uchiha Makoto nodded slightly, indicating for her to continue reading.
Seeing this, Xiaonan suppressed her curiosity and observed the changes in Nagato at this moment.
【......45, 44......3, 2, 1......】
As the countdown ended, the golden light ball that had just entered Nagato's body flew back to Uchiha Makoto's body.
Nagato closed his eyes tightly and his body trembled slightly.
After a while, Nagato slowly opened his eyes.
Seeing this, Xiaonan hurriedly came to Nagato and asked nervously: "Nagato, how do you feel?"
Nagato's eyes were filled with shock and an expression of disbelief, and then he said:
"very good!"
As he spoke, Nagato actually broke free from the crab-like machine, and his legs with necrotic muscles stood on the ground again.
"Nagato, your legs!" Seeing that Nagato was unsteady, Xiaonan stepped forward to support him. Seeing that Nagato could stand up again, she was also stunned.
Nagato's legs were injured by the close-range explosion of the detonating talisman in his early years to save her, and he had lost the ability to stand again, but now he was able to walk down again.
Is this what Uchiha Makoto did just now?
"I didn't expect that my legs would regain feeling again. I feel that it won't be long before I can regain my ability to move." Nagato sighed, then returned to the machine and looked at Uchiha Makoto, "Junior Brother Cheng, I Can I call you that?"
"Of course! I also learned ninjutsu from Lord Jiraiya, and I even learned senjutsu from Mt. Myoboku, so I am considered his student!" Uchiha Makoto nodded.
"What on earth is going on? You just..." Nagato asked in confusion.
Uchiha Cheng said: "This matter is a long story. I just used medical ninjutsu to treat the hidden wounds on your body and restore your vitality.
As for the knife that stabbed you, it was to lift the curse on your heart! "
Of course, Uchiha Makoto would not tell Nagato that he could use other gentler methods.
Since Nagato is willing to work for him, Uchiha Makoto is naturally very happy, but he still needs a small revenge for disturbing his wedding before.
A knife stabbed me to the core, and the electric shock treatment was probably not very pleasant.
Although he was laughing secretly in his heart, Uchiha Makoto still had a serious and serious expression on the surface.
"The curse mark in the heart?" Nagato looked shocked. When he was stabbed through the heart by Uchiha Makoto just now, he did feel a strange feeling in the heart. It was not just pain, he thought it was caused by the lightning escape. Now that I think about it carefully, my heart suddenly trembles. Who could plant a curse mark on his heart without his knowledge?
"Don't think about it!" Uchiha Makoto shook his head, "It was Uchiha Madara who planted the curse seal on you!"
"Is it Madara?"
"It's actually him?"
Both Nagato and Konan had some doubts in their eyes. According to their understanding, Madara probably didn't have this ability yet.
Uchiha Makoto explained: "I'm talking about the real Uchiha Madara, not the impostor who attacked Konoha with you before."
"Fake, what's going on? Is Madara actually a fake?" Nagato asked.
Uchiha said sincerely: "The real Madara is already dead! That Madara is actually Uchiha Obito. He was bewitched by Madara, pretending to be his identity and doing things for him.
Brother Nagato, you don’t really think that you are born with the Samsara Eye, do you?
In fact, even for the Immortal of Six Paths, his samsara eye was opened the day after tomorrow! "
"This..." Nagato fell into silence. He really had not thought about this issue. His earliest memory was that when he was a child, Konoha ninjas broke into his home and killed his parents. That time he awakened the Rinnegan and killed two Konoha ninjas unconsciously.
From that time on, Nagato hated Konoha, but after being taken care of by Teacher Jiraiya, he was redeemed.
It wasn't until Yahiko was killed by Hanzo and Danzo of Konoha that Nagato truly decided to embark on the path of becoming a god.
After Uchiha Makoto mentioned this matter, Nagato really started to think about it.
In the past, he was convinced that Teacher Jiraiya said that he with the Samsara Eye was the son of prophecy who brought peace to the ninja world. It was fate that gave him the Samsara Eye.
But now it seems that it is not.
"Could it be..." A surprising possibility suddenly occurred to Nagato's mind.
And soon, Uchiha Makoto explained his doubts.
“The method of opening the Samsara Eye is implicitly recorded in the stone tablets of our Uchiha clan.
After obtaining the Eternal Mangekyō Sharingan, when the power of Uchiha and Senju are combined, you can gain the power of all things and the ability to change the world! "
"Your reincarnation eye was transplanted into your body by Madara when you were young. The reason is that you have the blood of the Uzumaki clan and you are a very outstanding being among them.
Your parents were killed, Yahiko was killed, Obito's arrival, guiding you to collect tailed beasts, were all Madara's plans.
The reason is that one day you can use the heretical technique of reincarnation to resurrect him!
It's all a conspiracy! "
"How... is this possible? All of this is Madara... Then isn't the peace I'm pursuing just a joke from the beginning?
My hatred, my ideals, my bonds, including my entire life, are all arranged?
Is everything about me an illusion? "
After listening to Uchiha Makoto's words, Nagato thought for a moment and found that many of the previous doubts made sense.
Why was it such a coincidence that he had opened the Samsara Eye; why Hanzo, who was originally very supportive of them, suddenly switched sides; why when Yahiko died, Obito, who was pretending to be Madara, found him.
It turns out it was all arranged!
At this moment, Nagato shut himself up!
This was even more difficult for him to accept than Uchiha Makoto denying his idea of peace.
Nagato no longer knows what the meaning of his existence is?
"Nagato..." Looking at the lost and helpless Nagato, Konan looked worried, but she didn't know how to comfort her, so she could only hold his broad palm firmly.
“Life is like a movie, we step onto a stage we did not choose and act out a script we did not choose.
Apart from quitting acting, you can only play your role well!
Maybe Nagato-senpai, you feel that your performance in the first half was very bad.
But the second half has just begun!
Do you just want to quit midway? "
"Senior Brother Nagato, your script is actually better than many others!
Since you don't feel like you don't want to act out the script that Madara has prepared for you, then you might as well act according to my script!
Let’s go together to witness true peace! "
"At the very least, your bond in the first half of your life was not fake!
The encounter with Senior Brother Yahiko and Senior Sister Xiaonan was not fake.
Jiraiya-sensei's expectations for you are not false.
These are the real thing! "
Chicken Soup for the Soul Uchiha has integrity at his fingertips. Compared to poisonous chicken soup, this is also his favorite motto in life.
At this moment, these words coming from Uchiha Makoto's mouth convinced Nagato more than anyone else.
Hope rekindled in Nagato's heart, and he subconsciously lowered his head and looked at Konan in front of him.
'yes! Even if Madara gave me the reincarnation eye! But my will and Yahiko's ideal are not arranged in advance, and the bond between Konan and me is not fake!
Yahiko asked me to take care of Konan when he died. How could I give up on myself for such a ridiculous reason?
Since the script Madara gave me was not good and I now have the opportunity to choose again, then I will act in Junior Brother Cheng’s script well!
Do everything I can! '
Konan silently responded to Nagato, looked at him, and held Nagato's hand with greater strength.
"Junior Brother Cheng, thank you for your comfort!" Nagato's eyes regained their vitality and looked at Uchiha Makoto with burning eyes.
Uchiha Makoto heard this, shook his head with a smile, and said with a smile:
"Senior Brother Nagato, isn't it Senior Sister Xiaonan that you should be grateful for?
Compared with my light words, her response to you is more important! "
Following Uchiha Makoto's gaze, Nagato and Konan looked at their tightly held hands.
The two of them quickly let go of their clasped hands as if they were electrocuted.
The two people, who were almost thirty years old, were blushing like shy boys and girls at this moment.
Nagato's eyes were a little wandering, while Konan lowered his head, his sideburns covering his red cheeks.
Looking at the innocent two people, Uchiha Makoto looked confused.
No wonder Nagato didn't confess his love to Konan until his death.
Feeling that the atmosphere was a bit strange, Uchiha Makoto immediately changed the topic and said:
"Senior Brother Nagato, you should take me to see the Heretic Golem and White Zetsu first. I have more important things to discuss with you!"
