Betrayal Has a Terrible Start.

When Nagato was running, his hair parted, exposing his eyes.

Illusion?Hanzo narrowed his eyes unnaturally, and remained calm.

"You are from Yahiko, right? Why are you looking for this old man?" Hanzo asked lightly.

"Yes, Lord Hanzo, my name is Nagato." Nagato said politely.

"Why did you come?"

"I want to ask Master Hanzo, does peace really exist?" Nagato asked.

"Isn't what the old man said very clear just now? When the weak surrender to the strong, peace will come."

"Is there no other way?" Nagato looked over earnestly.

Hanzo sighed, and said, "Maybe there is, but now it is only suitable for the peaceful road of the Land of Rain, and we can only maintain it with strength."

Nagato was stunned, thinking of what Yeji had said to him earlier that was similar to Hanzo.

Power brings... deterrence?

Could it be that the current Land of Rain...

"what happened?"

"I've been thinking about a question."

"what?"

"There was someone who once told me a path of peace that was completely different from Akatsuki." Nagato raised his head and looked directly at Hanzo.

It's unmistakable, these eyes are legendary... The shock in Hanzo's heart can be imagined.

"What?" Hanzo followed Nagato's words.

"She said a word to me, war cannot bring peace, but it can stop war." Nagato said solemnly.

Hanzo looked slightly stunned, smiled, and said, "I didn't expect there to be someone like you in Akatsuki."

Nagato had question marks all over his face, not understanding what Hanzo meant.

"That person is right. Because the old man has the same opinion as her now. War brings only fear, and there will be no peace. However, the only thing that can stop war is war itself." Hanzo is so decisive that it is hard to doubt.

"Yes, is it?"

"It seems that your friend is also a person who has been tortured by war. Her understanding of war is something that many ninjas have never noticed. You are called Nagato, maybe you are..."

"What? Lord Hanzo?"

"No, it's nothing. That's it. Today's harvest surprised the old man. No matter what, as long as you are still from the country of rain, the old man will guarantee your safety if you stay in this country for a day."

After Hanzo left this nonsensical sentence, Nagato turned and left without looking back under Nagato's puzzled eyes.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

The whole village was surrounded by silence and the sound of rain.

Standing on the top of an iron tower, Yahiko was drenched in the rain, looking up at the gray sky, as if he wanted to wake himself up.

"Yahiko, you have been standing here for several hours, be careful not to catch a cold."

Xiaonan appeared behind him, and said to Yahiko with concern.

"Don't worry about me, Xiaonan, I want to calm down." Yahiko said.

Konan sighed, Hanzo's words were really hurtful, and Yahiko must be in a complicated mood right now.

"Even if Lord Hanzo doesn't support us, we can solve it in our own way. We are people who believe in your ideals and gather together."

Hearing Xiaonan's words, Yahiko smiled: "Maybe Hanzo-sama is right. We ninjas are a group that values ​​strength after all."

"Yahiko, you..."

"This is something I have been hesitating in my heart. I hesitated once, but now I want to face it squarely. Lord Hanzo is someone I respect, and his heart has always been toward this village and the country. In fact, I have always understood that I am a A coward who loves to cry." Yahiko laughed at himself.

Xiao Nan fell silent.

"... Nagato, he is the savior of this world." Yahiko said these words.

"Nagato..."

"Ah, he should be the center of Akatsuki. He has the legendary eyes of the immortal, and he is the reincarnation of the immortal, to curb the war in this world and bring people the hope of peace..." Yahiko murmured softly.

"Yes……"

"And I just need to be a bridge between people's hearts, plus the power of Nagato..."

Yahiko's voice became softer and softer, until it was inaudible.

Silence and the sound of rain still enveloped the village.

"This country is always crying. I used to hate it because it resembled me when I was a child. Perhaps, I was too naive... Think about it carefully, none of the things we have done have succeeded ever?"

Yahiko looked at the dark clouds in the sky, his eyes gradually became confused.

"You came to me to prove that you have a new answer in your heart?"
