Seeing that Minato seemed to have understood his intentions, Nangong Zhe didn't stay any longer. Instead, he walked in the direction of his home. His sister Nangong Zhe, Mashiro, and Little Linger are still in the secret room at the moment, waiting for the news of his safety. In Nangong Zhe's heart, the Ninja World, Pain, and Nagato are all not as important as his family.
Nangong Zhe's figure slowly disappeared in front of his eyes, and Watergate walked to the side of Shura Do Pain, who was just beaten into a sieve by him. Pulling out a black iron rod from the bloody body of Shura Do Pain, Watergate instantly began to absorb the natural energy floating in the air. After harmonizing with the physical energy and spiritual energy that already existed in his body, Watergate's eyes have become orange pupils and red eyeshadow after using Sage Mode.
Injecting the Senjutsu Chakra in his body into the iron rod, Watergate instantly confirmed the location of Nagato through the connection between the iron rod and Nagato himself. Throwing the Trident in his hand again and again, Minato arrived at the place where Konan and Nagato were hiding in a tall tree created by Konan's Paper Release in just a few seconds.
Konan and Nagato in the giant tree also quickly noticed Watergate's uninvited attack. Konan raised her foot, obviously wanting to fight with Watergate to buy time for Nagato to evacuate. But just as Konan was about to go out, Nagato raised his hand and blocked Konan.
The previous battle with Pain Rikudō obviously consumed a lot of Nagato's strength, and now Nagato looked a little tired. But it was not to the point of exhaustion, so although Konan didn't understand why Nagato didn't let her fight, she still listened to Nagato's words.
She gently waved her hand, and the pieces of paper that were disguised as trees fluttered in the air. A hole big enough for one person to pass through appeared on the trunk. Watergate didn't hesitate and walked directly in front of Nagato.
Instead of the expected hostility, Watergate looked at Nagato's long red hair and skinny body with a little curiosity. Smiling slightly, as if to show his kindness, Watergate said to Nagato and Konan:
"Two brothers and sisters, although you and I have never met, I have heard a lot about you from Jiraiya sensei. Today, we can finally meet, I don't know whether to be happy or sad … "
Watergate said what was in his heart. Although Watergate was not very familiar with Nagato and Konan, the three of them were Jiraiya's apprentices after all. With such a relationship, there was no way to treat each other with the attitude of treating strangers.
Looking at Watergate standing opposite the two of them with a face full of emotion, Konan, who didn't seem to be so good at talking, still had a frosty look, but Nagato rarely talked to Watergate:
"So what if you are sad, so what if you are happy? Although you and I are from the same sect, the life we have experienced is completely different. You have lived in the stable Wood leaf since you were a child. Although you went to the battlefield at a young age, you also fought with a group of people who also came from Wood leaf.
And we, the orphans of war, can only hold the broken piece of wood in the whirlpool of war to prevent ourselves from being completely involved and crushed. I have always been grateful to Jiraiya sensei for letting me, Konan, and Yahiko learn Ninjutsu by his side. If it weren't for Jiraiya sensei, we would have died long ago.
However, I don't think that what I did was wrong. Because destroying a small piece of illusory paradise, and then making the whole ninja world a real place without war, a quiet and peaceful place, isn't such an exchange cost-effective? Why do you want to refuse?! "
Originally, when Watergate saw that Nagato could talk to him, Watergate's heart inevitably showed a touch of joy. Although Nagato did destroy a large part of Wood leaf, and many people were seriously injured or even lost their lives under Nagato's attack, but with timely rescue and evacuation, such people accounted for a small number of people.
As a Hokage, the most important thing to do is not to let your emotions overwhelm your reason. He needs to consider not only his own feelings, but also the interests of Wood leaf. As long as Nagato was willing to communicate with him, Watergate felt that he had a great chance to persuade Nagato to turn over a new leaf. But listening to Nagato's words, did he have the slightest awareness of his own wrongdoings?
"Even now, you still refuse to come to your senses. Do you still think that there is nothing wrong with your actions?"
The smile on Watergate's face gradually solidified, and a burst of killing intent also escaped from Watergate's body. Feeling Watergate's killing intent, Konan also surrounded herself with a lot of white papers, obviously planning to attack Watergate before Watergate did.
After hearing Watergate's words, Nagato, who was questioned by Watergate, became more indifferent and silent:
"Wrong? I don't make mistakes! I'm the one who inherited the eyes of the Rikudo Sennin, I'm a god walking in the world! The decisions I make are never wrong. On the contrary, they are the best choice for the Shinobi World. Whether it's Wood leaf or other ninja villages, they keep saying that they love peace, but which one of the three great ninja wars didn't start between the five great ninja villages?
Because of your conflicts of interest, the entire ninja world is dragged into the quagmire of war, isn't that wrong? In that case, it's better to let me trigger a more large-scale war, and then let everyone see the great power that they can't disobey. Succumbing to power, fearing power, only such power can truly bring peace to the Shinobi World. "
With that said, Nagato's eyes were filled with a fanatical emotion. Watergate knew that even if he said more, there was no way to change Nagato's mind. The only thing he could do was to defeat Nagato and Konan who were standing opposite him at the moment.
