Chapter 247 Xiaonan was arrested
"I roughly understand the meaning of Yahiko's philosophy. He wants to make people understand the pain of others through communication and achieve mutual understanding, rather than using violent revenge and other means."
"It is also possible that Yahiko realized the insufficiency of his own strength through the casualties suffered by the Akatsuki organization over the years, so he wanted to give the position of leader to Nagato who possesses the Rinnegan."
"Yahiko is the most suitable person to be the leader of Akatsuki. He has always been righteous. Without him, Nagato's path would definitely go astray."
"Did Yahiko say this to Nagato because he had a premonition of something?"
"It feels like he's giving Nagato instructions for his final resting place."

at this time.
Jiusuke ran over with an anxious look on his face.
【Brother, this is bad! 】
Yahiko asked: [What's wrong? ]
【Hanzo's messenger has arrived. 】
Nagato and Yahiko looked at each other.
Screen turn
Kanzo looked at Yahiko who was standing in the front and asked: [Are you the leader of Akatsuki, Lord Yahiko? ]
【Yes, that's right.】
[I am the deputy of Hanzo of the Salamander, my name is Kanzo. I have heard about your deeds, and I heard that you do not advocate the use of force, but insist on solving problems peacefully.]
Yahiko said: [This is our philosophy.]
Kanzo took out a scroll from his bosom and handed it forward: [Hanzo sent me to deliver a handwritten letter, please take a look. ]
Hatosuke walked forward, took the scroll and handed it to Yahiko.
Yahiko took it and opened it.
After a moment, he looked up and asked: [Is this true? ]
Kanzo said: [He wants to meet you in person. Hanzo has already acknowledged Akatsuki. Hanzo hopes that one day, he can entrust you with the task of negotiating peace with the three countries surrounding Yugakure.]
[Negotiation mission of the Three Kingdoms. Great, brother!]
Yahiko said to Kanzo: [Please tell Hanzo-sama that we understand.]
Everyone in the Akatsuki organization shouted in surprise.
【Now we can help others with dignity! 】
Yahiko smiled and said: [Many people sacrificed their lives for this moment, and I finally did not let them down.]
Nagato put his hand on Yahiko's shoulder: [Yahiko, it was your determination to understand the pain of others that moved Hanzo. You see.]
Yahiko turned around and looked at the members of Akatsuki who were both crying and laughing.
[Akatsuki has found his ideal, and doesn't need any signs at all.] Nagato looked at Yahiko and stretched out his hand: [Everyone is willing to follow you until death.]
[Nagato…] Yahiko stretched out his hand and held Nagato’s hand.
【We did nothing wrong! 】
Then, Yahiko said to everyone in Akatsuki: [Tomorrow we will meet with Hanzo-sama, and Nagato and I will go.]
Kanzo said worriedly: [Is everything ok? Big Brother. How about we come together too...]
Yahiko smiled and comforted him: [It’s okay. If so many of us go over there, I’m afraid it will scare Hanzo-sama.]
Kanzo scratched his head: [That’s true. ]
【By the way, where is Xiaonan? 】
[I'm off to inspect the seventh area. I won't be back until tomorrow morning. 】
[Is that so... It's a rare good thing today. Anyway... Akatsuki has taken an important step today! Everyone... forget about the mission today and relax! ]
【oh! 】
The Akatsuki crowd cheered.

Ninja World
"I really want to go back to that time and tell them that this was Hanzo and Danzo's conspiracy!"
"Isn't it at this time that Konan was captured by Hanzo's men?"
"How despicable! A dignified demigod like Hanzo actually used such a despicable method to deal with Akatsuki!"
"Looking at how happy they are at this moment, I feel inexplicably sad. These Akatsuki members who often help others don't know that they will soon lose their leader. I don't know how sad they will be after Yahiko's death."
"After Akatsuki loses Yahiko, will those members leave or will they seek revenge for Yahiko?"
Rain Country
Xiaonan clenched his fists so tightly that his knuckles turned white.
Payne sighed at her appearance.
"Naruto, watch carefully and understand our pain in advance. I hope that after you see it, you can understand our peace concept and bring lasting peace to this ninja world."
Although Naruto was young, when he saw the looks on Konan and Nagato's faces, he realized that something bad was about to happen.

Xiaonan looked at the three bodies of villagers lying in front of him and hurried over.
She came to the body, held the man's wrist, and found that he had no pulse.
[Who did this…]
At this moment, the three corpses swelled up quickly and exploded, and poisonous gas spread in an instant.
Xiaonan quickly covered her nose and flew backwards, but the poison had already entered her body and she fainted the moment she landed.
Screen turn
Nagato and Yahiko had just set out to meet Hanzo.
A ninja mouse came over and nudged Jiusuke.
Seeing that Jiusuke didn't react, it bit Jiusuke's hand.
Jiusuke was awakened by the pain: [What are you doing? I was sleeping so well, come on...]
Grumbling, he took the information scroll off the ninja mouse's back and opened it.
【Let me see……】
After a moment, he stood up in shock, looked at the people sleeping around him and asked: [Hey! Where are Yahiko and Nagato? ]
The Buddha was awakened, sat up and said: [Have you set off yet? I am going to meet Hanzo today. 】
Jiusuke said anxiously: [Wake up everyone! Go after Brother Yahiko and the others! ]
【What's wrong? 】
[I'll explain it later!] With that, Jiusuke ran out.
Screen turn
The members of Akatsuki are on their way quickly.
The Buddha asked: [Hey, what happened? ]
Jiusuke explained: [Members near the Konoha border sent a message that Konoha's Anbu troops are gathering towards Hanzo.]
[Eh? Konoha's Anbu? Why did those people go to Hanzo? ]
[The details are unknown. But don’t you think this is too coincidental? And, if you think about it carefully, what Hanzo said is too good to be true.]
[So… today’s meeting with Hanzo…]
[Anyway! We have to tell this news to Big Brother and the others! ]
at this time.
A space vortex appeared in front of the few people.
The masked man and the pitcher plant appeared in front of them.
[It's a pity that I can't let you pass through here. ]
Screen turn
The masked man and Nepenthes Zetsu came to the top of a cliff and looked at the scene below where Konoha Anbu and Amegakure ninjas surrounded Yahiko Nagato.
Hanzo took out a kunai, looked down at Yahiko and said, "Your organization is too much of a hindrance to me. Yahiko, as the leader, you will die here. If you resist, this woman will die."
As he said this, he put the kunai close to Konan's neck and gestured, then threw the kunai between the two of them.
[The red-haired one, use that kunai to kill Yahiko! If you do it, I will let you and this woman go.]
……
Ninja World
"Are all the members of Akatsuki dead?"
"Although Yahiko will die, I feel that Nagato is the one who is more pitiful... After losing his parents, he was helpless and met the two most important people in his life. But... Alas."
"This was a devastating blow to Nagato. As a result, even his fellow members of the Akatsuki organization who had fought together for several years died at the hands of the masked man..."
