Chapter 501 Nagato's Fate

In the direction of the Hokage Building, as an explosion sounded, a cloud of dust rose and dispersed.

Immediately afterwards, a disheveled figure sitting on a black eagle began to flee, and behind it, a purple-haired woman with white wings on her back was chasing after it.

Faintly, one could hear Nojiri Oki's begging for mercy and Konan's excited cursing.

Suzumiya Musashi stood there in silence.

Just like the countless Konoha people who witnessed this farce.

"That's great." Nagato's voice sounded beside him.

Suzumiya Musashi's face flushed slightly, feeling ashamed of his brother's shameful behavior. At the same time, he was also a little curious.

He asked Nagato, "Aren't you angry?"

Konan is Nagato's closest friend.

Isn't it a man's nature to be unhappy at times like this?

Nagato: "I think it's good."

"It's been a long time since Xiaonan's expression has been so lively like today."

"She has lost a lot following me over the years."

"The current environment is very suitable for her."

Upon hearing this, Suzumiya Musashi continued to look at the man and woman chasing each other in the sky.

After a while, Nagato's voice sounded in his ears.

"Musashi."

"Is the ideal world you mentioned truly achievable?"

"A world where the ninja world is unified through nuclear war and the elderly are cared for and the young are nurtured."

Suzumiya Musashi: "Believe me, I will."

"That's great."

"How wonderful it would be if the Rain Country back then could be as happy as Konoha is now."

Suzumiya Musashi: "Don't worry."

"When I build that world, I will place the center of it in the Rain Kingdom."

"I will dispel the clouds that have been lingering for years in the Land of Rain and bring sunshine and rainbows there."

"In the future, it will definitely be the best place."

"There will be children laughing and parents nagging, but there will no longer be...war."

"is it?"

Nagato closed his eyes.

Tears rolled down his face without him noticing, wetting half of his face.

Warm sunlight filtered through the clouds and landed on his shoulders, as if God had finally relented and soothed Nagato's heart, which had been eroded by pain for so long.

"Thank you."

"Thank you, Musashi."

"I'm looking forward to that day."

Nagato left.

After chatting with Suzumiya Musashi all night, he left with Konan.

In his words, he had been looking at the rainy sky for too long and wanted to go outside to see a different world so that he wouldn't have too much material to dream about while he was down there.

Twelve days later, Xiaonan came back alone.

And Nagato's ashes.

She walked into Konoha familiarly, went to Suzumiya Musashi's Anbu base, and found Suzumiya Musashi sweating profusely in the gravity room.

"Nagato let me ask you before I leave."

"Where's the best place to bury him?"

"He said I should listen to you and that it would be best if I could see the Future World Center you mentioned."

Musashi paused.

He looked at the jar in Xiaonan's arms for a long time.

"The Rain Country, right?"

"Find a place with mountains and water, preferably a bit higher, anywhere will do."

"Where Nagato is buried, there is the center of the world."

Xiaonan nodded: "Okay."

"By the way, Nagato asked me to tell you something before he left."

"He was very happy to know you in the last journey of his life."

"Also, that ideal world you mentioned, it'd better be real. If you can't, he will laugh at you down there."

Xiaonan was invited to have lunch at noon, and that afternoon, he prepared to set off for the Land of Rain.

Before leaving, Suzumiya Musashi suddenly thought of something and asked, "Konan."

Xiaonan: "What?"

Suzumiya Musashi: "How about I let Oki go back with you?"

"The Rain Country is quite far away. It's not safe for a girl like you to go out..."

"Don't mention that guy to me!" Konan's expression suddenly changed when she heard the name of Nojiri Oki.

She said angrily: "Musashi, I don't want to say it again. Don't mention that person's name in front of me."

If the person opposite her wasn't Suzumiya Musashi, she would probably have turned hostile.

Suzumiya Musashi was stunned.

"why?"

Xiaonan gritted his teeth: "He...he...he is so disgusting!"

"I've never seen anyone as disgusting as him."

"Just look at his ninjutsu and you'll understand how despicable he is."

"Hachihime Seal!"

"What a wicked ninjutsu!"

"Can a normal person develop a ninjutsu like that?!"

Suzumiya Musashi: “…”

If he hadn't also participated in a little bit of research and development, he would have echoed it.

He coughed lightly, organized his words, and defended Nojiri Ohki: "Well... uh... Ohki is actually very reliable."

"Although this person's appearance is indeed a bit vulgar."

"But actually, he's a very good person at heart."

Konan looked at Suzumiya Musashi coldly.

Suzumiya Musashi continued: "Speaking of which, Konan, I want to talk about you."

"As a human being, you can't be too shallow."

"When judging a person, you can't just look at his appearance, his temperament, or his behavior."

“It also depends on a person’s heart.”

“A person with a good heart can do no wrong.”

Konan sneered, she looked directly at Suzumiya Musashi and said something that was earth-shattering to Suzumiya Musashi's ears.

"heart?"

"The heart of Midnight Butcher?"

Suzumiya Musashi: "(?｀?Д?′)!!"

Xiaonan left.

Suzumiya Musashi's face flushed red, and it took a long time for the blush to subside.

After he digested the shame, he started to worry about Nojiri Oki again.

After all, we are good brothers, so I have to help him no matter what.

He took out the message ink bird left by Nojiri Oki and wrote on it: "Konan goes to the Land of Rain."

"Chase quickly! Seize the opportunity!"

Just as he was about to release it, he thought for a moment and added, "Don't even think about saving your image! It's completely gone!"

"Go after them bravely! A good girl is afraid of a clinging man! Come on! Da Mu!"

Watching the messenger bird fly out of the window, Suzumiya Musashi finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Damu, I can only help you up to this point.

In the following days, Suzumiya Musashi began his training.

First up is the gravity chamber.

Tsunade was busy with the Five Kage Summit, so Suzumiya Musashi found Uchiha Izumi, who was also a medical ninja.

Under Uchiha Izumi's medical guidance, he began to try to practice in the gravity room.

Gravity strengthens the internal organs, while weight bearing strengthens the muscles and bones of the limbs. Practice combining the two.

After his trial and error, he found that increasing the gravity to 7 times was the most suitable level for him at the moment. With the help of the special weights made by the Land of Earth, his practice became more efficient.

In addition, there is also the study of ninjutsu.

His research direction is the combination of Fire Escape and Yin-Yang Escape, and he has made some progress.

Under the Anbu base, in the quiet room where Suzumiya Musashi practiced, flames and explosions would occasionally appear. After a long time, the Anbu and Team 18 who were guarding Suzumiya Musashi had become accustomed to it.
