When he heard the familiar and cold voice, Tang Hao finally heaved a sigh of relief.
The Astral Beast was dead, the Light Jade was retrieved, and the Heroic Instance Dungeon's mission was completed. A large amount of rewards had also arrived. The chat room was a good boss. It did not deduct a single cent from them. However, compared to these rewards, Tang Hao was more concerned about the Light Jade in his hand.
[Light Jade: Convey the power of happiness to people.]
[In a distant era, on a distant planet, in order to pursue the common happiness of all mankind, the sages led by the Seven Sages, including Aurora, extracted a tool called the Light Jade from the world. It possessed supreme power and gathered the great power of the world into one. It was called the Omnipotent Miracle.]
[The Seven Sages stored the Light Jade in the Holy Temple of Light. Anyone, even if they were thousands of miles away, as long as they faced the Holy Temple of Light and prayed sincerely, the Light Jade would fulfill their wishes. Whether they wanted a superior life, wanted to be with their loved ones, or wanted to revive the dead, the Light Jade brought all these beautiful things to the world. Humans no longer had any pain or sorrow.]
[However, when everything could be achieved through the Light Jade, humans lost the motivation to work hard. As long as they prayed, they could have a superior life. There was no need for labor or progress. People who did not want to progress abused the power of the Light Jade. After a short period of happiness, they ushered in an irreversible tragedy.]
[In the face of a shattered world, the Sage Ayula finally realized that the common happiness of all mankind also meant the common misfortune of all mankind. When people lost the thing called pain and sorrow, they would not understand the value of happiness. When everything in the world was at their fingertips, no one would cherish that little happiness anymore.]
[However, the Light Jade is not guilty. We are the guilty ones. The Sage Ayula, who understood all of this, finally used his own life as the price to split the Light Jade into seven parts. He scattered them into the endless Dimensional World and engraved his own vow: Only those who feel sorrow will yearn for happiness. Only those who bear pain will pursue peace. Only those who lose will know how to cherish, and only those who cry will understand the value of a smile. Therefore, I will make a promise with you. Those who have cried and lost everything, if you can still see happiness after that, then pray to the Light Jade.]
[Only those who cherish can awaken the power of the Light Jade.]
This was the Light Jade.
After reading this message, Tang Hao finally understood that this Light Jade was indeed the Light Jade of the CLANNAD World … No, to be precise, the Light Jade of the CLANNAD World was only one of them. It originated from an unknown, distant world. In order to prevent the power of the Light Jade from being abused, the sage Aurora made such a vow.
Therefore, in the world of CLANNAD, Okazaki Tomoya, the man who lost his mother, wife, and daughter, thus losing everything, hugged his daughter's corpse in the snow, only longing for that tiny bit of happiness. In the end, he awakened the power of the Light Jade, returning the time of the entire world to its original point of happiness, starting over at the place where the dream began, leading this sad story to a happy ending.
Rather than saying that there were thirteen Light Jades in CLANNAD, it was better to say that they were all shadows of the Light Jade. Only the miracle that was launched at the last moment was the true power of the Light Jade.
Nagato being able to get the Light Jade may not be a coincidence because he was also a person who almost lost everything, but he was different from Okazaki Tomoya. After crying, he didn't cherish it. Instead, he changed his original intention and tried to return his pain to the world. Therefore, he didn't feel the power of the Light Jade.
Using the Light Jade to awaken star beasts, using the Light Jade to seal star beasts, using the Light Jade to absorb the souls of others, these were all his abuse of the power of the Light Jade. Even if the sage Aurora used his own life to limit the Light Jade, this kind of thing with great power, even if only a trace of it leaked, could cause a huge qualitative reaction.
The Light Jade of the CLANNAD World did not cause any adverse effects, probably because there was no one in that world who could communicate with the Light Jade.
At this time, Tang Hao also understood why Tensei's body was still reconnected after being split in half by his dark sword. After being destroyed by the power of the world, this was originally impossible. Most likely, at that moment, because of some kind of prayer in his heart, the Light Jade touched his body, and it repaired his body.
But he was obviously a person who didn't know how to cherish. In the end, the Light Jade left him and no longer responded to his prayers.
Later, Tang Hao put the Light Jade into the favorites folder, put away the phone, and looked down at Nagato and others.
The complete Light Jade, even if it was not comparable to the chat room, should be an artifact comparable to the Ice Soul Stone. But after being divided into seven, even if it still had unimaginable power, it was not enough for the chat room. The favorites folder could accommodate it.
This also made Tang Hao breathe a sigh of relief, at least he didn't have to worry about it being stolen or lost.
At the same time, when Tang Hao looked down, Nagato and others immediately became vigilant. Before, when there was the Star Beast, everyone was united, but they were never friends with Tang Hao. Now that the Star Beast was dead, it was their turn to solve the problem, and they quickly prepared for the battle.
"Let's stop here."
"Huh?" Nagato was taken aback when he heard this sentence.
After the battle with the Star Beast, almost all of the members of the Akatsuki were severely injured. Even his chakra was quite weak, and Tang Hao still looked the same, plus the Light Jade was taken away by the other party. No matter how confident Nagato was, he didn't have any confidence at this moment. He never expected that Tang Hao would call a stop at this time.
In fact, at the beginning, Tang Hao indeed had the thought of wiping out the entire Akatsuki in one fell swoop. But first, using the Darkness Sword twice had almost drained all of his strength, and second, the Light Jade was indeed a power that could bring happiness. Holding the Light Jade, the hostility and killing intent in his heart were greatly reduced, and he didn't have much fighting spirit left.
And the most important point is that in order to deal with the Star Beast, Nagato didn't hesitate to use his trump card, the Outer Golem. If it was the original Nagato who wanted to bring pain to the world, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to do this. His character is slightly different from the original. If Tang Hao didn't guess wrong, he was probably influenced by the Light Jade, and he was willing to sacrifice his life for justice.
Such a Nagato, at least kept his integrity. Although the merits and demerits couldn't be offset, in any case, his contribution to the world today was undeniable.
"Let's talk, you and me," Tang Hao said.
"Don't listen to him, Nagato!" As soon as he heard this, Konan immediately reached out and stopped in front of Nagato, watching Tang Hao vigilantly. "This guy has been plotting against us from the beginning, and with your current state, he may harm you."
Nagato didn't speak, but he felt a little strange. At this point, he didn't know what to talk about with Tang Hao.
Tang Hao shook his head and smiled, saying to Konan, "If you want to come together, you can. After all, this matter has nothing to do with you … Yes, it's also related to Yahiko."
"Yahiko?" Hearing this name, both of their expressions changed.
"… Okay." After hesitating for a moment, Nagato finally nodded.
Subsequently, Tang Hao took Nagato and Konan to a tower. After the battle just now, the Hidden Rain Village was basically destroyed. This was the only well-preserved tower.
"What do you want to say?" Sitting on the top of the tower, Nagato took the lead and asked.
Tang Hao turned around and didn't answer. "Nagato, do you still remember your original ideal?"
Nagato was stunned, and his eyes were instinctively in a trance.
Human nature is good, and human nature is evil. Maybe some people are born bad, but this is a very small number, and Nagato is not like this.
Nagato, Yahiko, and Konan were all orphans of the Second Shinobi War. They met while fleeing and lived a homeless life. They saw the pain and sadness brought by the war. When they were young, they also had the ideal of justice, hoping to eliminate the war between countries with their own strength and bring peace to the world.
Later, they met Jiraiya and became excellent ninjas under the guidance of Jiraiya, and then Yahiko founded the Akatsuki Organization. At that time, the Akatsuki Organization was not like what it is now. They preferred to achieve peace through gentle means rather than relying on extreme force. Until they were killed by Hanzo and Konoha Danzo, and Yahiko died tragically.
At that time, Nagato finally woke up to the hopelessness of human beings and the importance of power. He understood how naive he was in the past. Since he couldn't bring peace through talks, he could only use extreme force. Since then, Nagato was completely evil.
In fact, Tang Hao didn't think that there was anything wrong with Nagato's idea. Because there is such a group of idiots in this world. They think about fighting and killing all day long. If they are not beaten and scared, they will never put down their ugly faces. They start wars for their own interests, but they let thousands of innocent people bear the death and crime. This kind of idiot should die.
However, Nagato's approach was more extreme. He tried to use force and fear to shock the whole world, and in the process of implementation, he became more and more deviated from the original intention.
No matter what, it is not good to be extreme.
So the Akatsuki Organization became more and more like a terrorist organization.
Nagato recovered from his trance and sneered: "The original ideal? You are right, I did have that kind of thing, but it was just our stupid and naive delusion. We also paid the price for this stupidity and naivety. Now … "
"I have a way to resurrect Yahiko."
"Now, I have … Huh?!"
Nagato was suddenly stunned, and the vigilant Konan was also stunned, and she almost turned into a pile of paper dolls.
Looking at the dull expressions of the two, Tang Hao nodded. "It's not an illusion. As long as the power of the light jade is used correctly, it is not too difficult to resurrect a dead person. Of course, this power is not for nothing. If the Akatsuki Organization still maintains its current state, I will not use it for you, and I have a condition. "
Nagato's lips trembled, and his face was full of doubts, but he finally asked: "… What condition?"
