Chapter 457

[“This! How to defend against this kind of attack! You’ll die if you get hit!”]

[“There are very few techniques involving the soul in the ninja world. It’s hard to imagine how difficult it is to find a way to deal with this situation.”]

[“We can only attack Nagato or the summoned beast, or try to see if the ninjutsu can block it?”]

[“See how Hanzo handles it.”]

[Without the information from the Rinnegan, Hanzo had no intention of fighting Nagato. He directly dodged the attack with the instant body technique, and then disappeared from here. ]

[Nagato had no intention of chasing. In Konan’s sad eyes, he took off the Rain Hidden Ninja forehead protector on his forehead, held a kunai and drew a horizontal line on it to represent the traitor. 】

【"Yahiko died... Since then, I succeeded Yahiko as the leader of the organization."】

【"Later, my companions died in battle one after another... Many people died." Nagato stared at Naruto and said coldly: "The citizens of the Fire Country who indulged in the illusion of peace, those remunerations paid to Konoha for commissioned work later became funds for the war. The citizens of the Fire Country knew that they were indirectly funding the war, but they still talked about hypocritical peace."】

["... No way, that Hanzo actually ran away! At least fight!"]

["In fact, this is what smart people do. Without knowing the information, they take unknown risks and fight with the owner of the Samsara Eye. Fighting, everyone knows that this is a losing business. ”]

[“Hanzo is known as the man standing at the top of the ninja world, that is, the ninja among ninjas. How could he not understand the role of intelligence in battle? However, such a clean escape is somewhat beyond my expectation.”]

[“Speaking of which, Nagato’s attitude is too extreme. Not everyone has the vision to focus on the entire ninja world. Even in the Land of Fire, those ordinary people only care about what is happening around them. How can they have the time and energy to understand the miserable lives of civilians far away in the Hidden Rain Village? Then this reason for invading Konoha is really a bit untenable.”]

[“The point is not that they don’t care, but that they indirectly subsidize the war while at the same time Nagato must be disgusted by the topic of peace. "]

["Well, it's good enough to live a good life these days. It has nothing to do with us if people in other countries don't live well. If you want to blame someone, blame their leaders for not providing them with stable living conditions. It's not appropriate to vent your anger on others just because of this."]

["Look, this is the root of the conflict between the two sides. People in a peaceful environment don't know or want to know how people in war-torn areas live. Nagato himself knows this, but Jiraiya and Naruto told him that there will be a day when they will understand each other. If it were you, would you be angry with them?"]

["Without the sacrifices of our small countries, Sacrifice and turmoil, where can you big countries have peace! Your peace is violence against us! "】

【"As long as people live, they will hurt others unconsciously. Hatred and humans coexist. In this cursed world, there is no real peace. Everything that Jiraiya said is unrealistic."】

【After thoroughly speaking his thoughts, Nagato threw the last question to Naruto: "You have heard my story... Tell me your answer..."】

【After a moment of silence, Naruto opened his clothes and took out Jiraiya's Tenchi Ninden. In a trance, he seemed to see Jiraiya again, and saw his high-spirited face when he said "people can understand each other". 】

["I feel that Nagato's story only made him more resolute. I don't think Naruto can give any reliable answer to refute it."]

["The contradiction cannot be reconciled at all. The vested interests cannot provide help at the cost of affecting their living conditions, and the weak have the ability to resist. In this case, it is impossible to stop the dispute between the two sides."]

["Jiraiya's perseverance ninjutsu... Naruto will not continue to repeat Jiraiya's unrealistic dream, right? Enough of empty talk, let's be practical."]

"Is this what happened to you after I left, Nagato..." Jiraiya muttered, then shook his head with a wry smile.

Encountered such a thing, let alone the young people who have just come of age, even many adults in their thirties and forties may not be able to overcome this hurdle.

And the original concept that supported their actions was just Jiraiya's ideal without a specific answer. In this case, it is indeed a bit of a stretch to expect them to stick to their original intentions.It's hard to answer.

'So, what answer will you give, Naruto...' Jiraiya adjusted his emotions and turned his eyes back to the sky.

At the same time, his disciples also focused their attention on Naruto on the sky.

Nagato and Konan in the Hidden Rain Village, Yahiko in the Pure Land, Minato in the body of the God of Death, and Naruto himself, all wanted to hear what the son of prophecy on the sky could say.

["Maybe it's true, and I think you're right." Naruto lowered his head, closed his eyes and replied with a painful face: "I can understand your actions now... But even so, I really can't forgive you and can't help hating you!"]

["Really? Then let's make a break." Nagato was not surprised that Naruto gave such an answer, but he didn't expect him to say such a sentence next. 】

【"But... the lecherous sage entrusted his dream to me because he believed in me... so I have no choice but to believe in everything the lecherous sage believes in. This is my answer."】

【"For this reason... I can't... kill you."】

["Well... is Naruto's answer different from what he said before? It feels like he just said it in a different way!"]

["No, no, no, he made a choice! It was the conflict between revenge and understanding that caused Naruto to have a mental breakdown and lose his power before, but now he chooses to believe in Jiraiya's ideals, so he gave up revenge and tried to understand Nagato and the others."]

["So he really forced himself to understand and accept Nagato and the others, and suppressed his own emotions for this?"]

["This ideal is too heavy, can Naruto guarantee that his companions will not be harmed in the future? If everyone handles it like Nagato, then what position does he have in Konoha? How will his companions see him?"]
