Chapter 1023: Yecheng: Little Sister Konan, You Don't Want To Either...
As Yecheng spoke, Konan, suspended in mid-air and bound by chains, visibly paled with shock at an alarming rate.
The information Yecheng revealed was not something even Jiraiya, let alone the entire Ninja World, was privy to.
"There's no need to be so surprised. What I know far surpasses what you are aware of.
How much do you know about Nagato's Rinnegan and the Outer Path Demon Statue he summoned?
Have you ever considered that Nagato's Rinnegan might not have originally belonged to him?
Or that Yahiko's tragic death and Nagato's transformation were part of a sinister plot, and you three were mere pawns in someone else's game from the very beginning?"
Yecheng's revelations were overwhelming, leaving Konan stunned for a while.
However, as she gathered her thoughts and recovered from the shock, she incredulously asked, "What you're saying is impossible!
Nagato had the Rinnegan since he was a child, and if Yahiko's death was orchestrated by someone else, then who is the mastermind behind it all?"
At this moment, Konan's mind was in turmoil. Although they had experienced many tragedies, she couldn't bring herself to believe that their dreams and everything they had done were manipulated by someone behind the scenes.
"Nagato was born with the Rinnegan? Let me tell you something. The Rinnegan is a Kekkei Genkai, but it doesn't belong to the Uzumaki clan. It originated from the Uchiha clan.
Before Nagato met Jiraiya, he was just an ordinary person, right? Do you think he would have noticed if someone had placed the Rinnegan within him and cast a Genjutsu on him?"
Regarding Yahiko's death, Konan asked, "Who orchestrated it? This old trick of making someone's loved ones die in front of them, causing them to hate the entire world... I experienced something similar over a decade ago."
"You must have seen him, the masked man who claimed to be Uchiha Madara?" Yecheng asked, referring to someone Konan and her companions were familiar with.
Konan began to waver when she realized that Yecheng not only knew about their affairs but also the enigmatic Uchiha Madara.
"I can assure you that the masked man who claimed to be Uchiha Madara is a fake," Yecheng said confidently. "The real Uchiha Madara, I encountered over a decade ago. He was already an old man, and after our battle, he probably didn't have long to live."
"So, this masked man approached you under the guise of Uchiha Madara and collaborated with you, intending to use you from the start.
Capturing the Tailed Beasts and destroying the Ninja World, then establishing peace on the ruins? Wasn't this idea also his doing? Don't you find it odd that the Outer Path Demon Statue summoned by Nagato's Rinnegan could absorb the Tailed Beasts? And despite not having the Rinnegan himself, he seemed to understand its power better than you? Is it because he's Uchiha Madara, the Ninja World's once-feared Shinobi Shura, that he knows more? Can you accept such an explanation?"
As Yecheng's analysis sank in, Konan's resolve began to waver. However, having endured the cruelty of war, she quickly regained her composure and glared at Yecheng, saying, "Even if the Uchiha Madara you mentioned is fake, how can I trust that everything you're saying is true?"
Yecheng remained calm in the face of Konan's skepticism and instead smiled confidently. "I can save Nagato, and there's a chance I can help you revive Yahiko.
"As mentioned earlier, Konan valued Nagato and Yahiko the most. Now, with the possibility of Nagato being in danger and Yahiko's potential resurrection, Konan couldn't help but waver, despite her lingering distrust towards Yecheng."
This was similar to Orochimaru's offer to Tsunade for the resurrection of Shin Uzumaki and Kakashi, where even though she knew Orochimaru had ulterior motives, the prospect of bringing back someone important to her still made her hesitate.
"What do you want me to do? If you want me to harm Nagato, I absolutely won't agree."
After Yecheng's analysis and explanation, Konan now believed that the Uchiha Madara they had been working with was a fake and was only using them.
However, looking at Yecheng before her, Konan didn't find him entirely trustworthy either. So, she immediately expressed her bottom line and stance.
"Because of your past experiences, you won't easily trust others, and I can understand that. But can you please stop treating me like a villain all the time?
To be honest, you are also Jiraiya's disciples, and I am Tsunade's disciple. At the very least, we are senior and junior disciples, which is far more reliable than some suspicious guy like the Masks man.
Moreover, this time, Senior Sister Konan doesn't need you to do anything. I only hope that when Nagato falls into despair, you can come out and guide him. I'll take care of the rest."
After leaving these words, Yecheng's figure slowly disappeared, and the golden chains binding Konan also vanished with his departure.
Konan, now back on the ground, looked at the spot where Yecheng had disappeared, then glanced up at the falling rain in the sky, and muttered to herself, "Will there be a day when the rain stops?"
After leaving the brothel, Jiraiya and Minato had planned to investigate the so-called Angel and God, but unexpectedly, Pain found them first as they approached the tall tower in Amegakure.
The latest chapter of the novel is available now!
When Jiraiya saw the familiar face, adorned with numerous black rods like a performance artist, he instantly recognized his former disciple, Yahiko, even after so many years.
What puzzled Jiraiya was that the Rinnegan belonged to Nagato, yet the Yahiko before him also possessed the Rinnegan.
Before he could even ask, five more figures, both male and female, with varying physiques, appeared beside Tendou, and all of them had the Rinnegan as well!
"Pain Six Paths, reporting for duty!"
If the opponent was only Jiraiya, Nagato probably wouldn't have deployed all six paths of Pain from the start.
But upon seeing Minato Namikaze by Jiraiya's side, Nagato realized the situation was more serious than he thought.
Nagato didn't know why the Fourth Hokage had come back to life and appeared here, but as Amegakure was their base, Nagato couldn't allow anyone, whether it was Nagato or someone else, to freely come and go.
Among the six paths of Pain, the one with horns on his head, Xiu luo dao, took the lead without any intention of greeting Jiraiya and his team. Instead, he launched a barrage of tracking missiles from his mechanical arms!
