Chapter 566 Choosing to Join

Chiyu and Nagato talked about peace. Nagato fell into deep thought after hearing Chiyu's explanation of peace.

After a while, Nagato asked, "Do you think people can understand each other?"

Qianyu sneered and said, "You still believe the nonsense Jiraiya said. Then let me ask you, can you understand the two Konoha ninjas who killed your parents? They broke into your house to search for food resources and killed your parents thinking they were enemies. So it was manslaughter by mistake. Can you forgive them?"

Nagato said coldly: "No."

"Hanzo and Danzo teamed up to wipe out the Akatsuki organization and forced Yahiko to commit suicide in your kunai, making your legs unable to stand up again. Can you forgive Hanzo and Danzo?"

"cannot..."

"Uchiha Madara used you as a pawn and a tool to revive him. Can you understand what he did?"

"cannot..."

Qian Yu spread his hands and said, "That's good. If you can't understand, then no one else can understand. Everyone has their own thoughts. No one can understand another person's thoughts. People are selfish and prioritize their own interests over the interests of others.

To give an extreme example, I want to kill Xiaonan, just simply want to kill Xiaonan, without any reason, can you understand me? I think you will definitely say without hesitation that you don’t understand me.

Jiraiya is just too idealistic. He himself can't even understand others. He can easily come up with an absurd theory with just his upper lip and lower lip, but you all treat it as if it were the Bible. I really don't understand."

Nagato and Konan looked slightly embarrassed.

Hearing what Chiyu said, it seems that it is really impossible for people to understand each other. At the beginning, whether it was Yahiko, Konan, or even Nagato himself, they all believed that the era of mutual understanding between people as Jiraiya said would come.

Next, Chiyu, Nagato, and Konan had nothing to say and just waited.

Two days later.

Chiba stood up from her chair and said, "Yahiko is here, I'll bring him right over, you guys wait a moment."

Qianyu disappeared on the spot.

Nagato and Konan are now excited and nervous, looking forward to meeting Yahiko.

Outside the Hidden Rain Village, Yahiko was hurrying along, panting.

Yahiko really didn't stop for a moment. He kept on traveling after setting out from Otogakure Village.

Just when Yahiko was about to arrive at the Hidden Rain Village, Chiba appeared in front of Yahiko.

Seeing Yahiko gasping for breath, Qianyu said helplessly: "I knew you would keep on going without a break, and you can't run."

Yahiko put his hands on his thighs and stuttered: "I, I want to see them soon."

"Come on, I'll take you to meet them. They are also looking forward to meeting you."

Chiba placed her hands on Yahiko's body, used Kamui to suck Yahiko into another dimension, and then came in front of Nagato and Konan again.

"Where's Yahiko?"

Nagato and Konan saw that Yahiko was not by Chiyu's side, and asked Chiyu anxiously.

"Everyone is really anxious."

Chiba used Kamui to release Yahiko from the alien dimension.

When Yahiko, Nagato and Konan met each other, all three of them were stunned.

Xiaonan rushed to Yahiko, hugged him tightly, and said with sobs: "Yahiko, it's so good, it's so good that you are still alive!"

Nagato's eyes were red, and he forced a smile: "It's been a long time, Yahiko."

Yahiko stared fixedly at Nagato.

Nagato said in a dry voice: "It's ugly, right? I look like this now..."

Looking at Nagato's skinny body, pale skin, and a large number of chakra sticks inserted in his back, Yahiko's heart ached.

After Konan let go of Yahiko, Yahiko staggered in front of Nagato.

"How could this happen... Nagato, what on earth happened to you? I'm sorry, Nagato, I wasn't by your side when you and Konan were suffering, leaving you two to endure it all alone... I'm sorry..."

The strong sense of guilt made Yahiko burst into tears.

Nagato stretched out his dry hand and pressed it on Yahiko's shoulder: "You are still an idiot as always. This is none of your business. As long as you are alive, nothing else matters. Welcome back, Yahiko."

Yahiko wiped his tears and looked at Chiba.

Before Yahiko spoke, Chiba knew what he wanted to say.

"Don't worry. The main reason why Nagato became like this is that when he summoned the Outer Path Statue for the first time, a large amount of chakra was consumed. Then when he forcibly used the Outer Path Statue to fight, it sucked away a large amount of chakra and vitality, causing an overdraft of chakra and vitality. Orochimaru's skills are very high, and he should be able to heal Nagato.

Maybe Kabuto can solve Nagato's problem. I will ask Kabuto to come and check on Nagato's condition. If Kabuto can't solve it alone, I will try to get Nagato to go to the Hidden Sound Village and ask Orochimaru to help treat Nagato."

Qianyu changed the subject: "But before that, I have something to ask Nagato."

Chiba looked at Nagato and asked seriously, "Although you and Konan are Yahiko's companions, you are not my companions. You already know what you should know. So, what is your and Konan's choice?"

Yahiko looked at Nagato and Konan with burning eyes and said, "Nagato, Konan, join us. From now on, the three of us will stay together and will never be separated again!"

Konan also looked at Nagato. Yahiko was still alive, and they finally met again. Konan really wanted to go back to the days when the three of them were together.

At that time, as long as everyone was together, it seemed that nothing could stump them, and every day was full of hope.

Nagato let out a breath and nodded, "Okay."

Hearing Nagato's agreement, Yahiko and Konan smiled.

Qianyu continued, "Since we have become companions, there is no need for me to hide some things from you. Yahiko, you too, there are some things you don't know yet, so I will let you see for yourself."

Chiba used illusion to present everything to Yahiko, Nagato and Konan in the illusion.

This includes everything like Black Zetsu's conspiracy, Kaguya Ōtsutsuki, Jigen and Isshiki Ōtsutsuki, and the relationship between them.

When the illusion ended, Yahiko, Konan, and Nagato all looked stunned.

Yahiko turned his head stiffly and looked at Chiyu: "Chiyu, have you been fighting monsters like this all along?"

Qianyu shook his head and said, "Not always, just recently. You saw it in the illusion. A few years ago, I fought with Jixian and I lost miserably. But now it's different, so I came to your door."
