Only complete annihilation seems to offer true liberation.
"I am willing to accept any punishment, even if it means my soul is scattered."
"Lord Patriarch."
In the end, he broke down in tears, his once arrogant head pressed firmly to the ground.
Looking back on this journey,
Countless innocent families have been shattered because of his obsession, yet he remains oblivious to his own delusion.
Until I saw Lin again,
Until, in the midst of his soul's confusion, he heard her say that she had been watching over him according to their promise.
He then suddenly came to his senses.
“Obito........”
During this time, sensing her companion's sincere repentance, Nohara Rin did not interrupt again, and the worry on her face slowly disappeared.
She knew that this was the real Obito.
Obito Uchiha, who was a bottom student at the Ninja Academy but had a kind heart.
"Obito Uchiha, the things you have done to the clan are too numerous to count and will never be forgiven."
Seeing the man constantly repenting, Huang finally spoke.
The voice was cold, but it addressed the other person by their full name.
Upon hearing this, Obito's body trembled slightly, but he still answered with immense regret, "Yes."
"But, when a person dies, their debts are wiped out."
"If there is an afterlife, take good care of yourself."
As soon as he finished speaking, Huang strode straight out of the spatial rift torn apart by the Cloud Mirror.
"Yes,"
"Lord Patriarch."
"Thank you."
Only a suppressed response remained from the otherworldly space.
Chapter 758 What, are you going to repent to me like Obito?
Huang didn't stay in the alternate dimension for very long.
But for Xiao Nan, it was undoubtedly a long and agonizing ordeal.
During this time, her turbulent and fearful heart repeatedly urged her to flee this battlefield, and she was advised not to have any conflict with that person.
Whether it was to protect Nagato's Rinnegan or to save themselves.
Xiao Nan ultimately chose to stay.
The Land of Rain is her home.
Yahiko and Nagato also lie asleep here.
Where else can I go?
"Thank you for helping the Land of Rain resolve this troublesome threat, [Madara]."
Watching Uchiha Ara approach step by step, Konan suppressed her turbulent emotions and spoke.
She was gambling, gambling that the other party's nature hadn't changed, gambling that the Uchiha clan's clear-cut love and hate would remain the same!
After all, there had been no particularly serious direct conflict between them; on the contrary, they had established an alliance for a period of time.
But the next second, his confidence crumbled.
Where is the Rinnegan?
The questioning made Xiao Nan feel an immense sense of humiliation pounding wildly in her chest, and endless self-questioning echoed in her mind!
What was she expecting?
What am I really expecting?
The tragedy of being a small country and a weak nation—haven't the hardships we've endured over the years been enough?
How could she still harbor such a pitiful and pathetic hope?
What I should know perfectly well is that, given the enormous profits involved, both Uchiha Madara and Uchiha Ara are nothing more than birds of a feather!
Just like how one side indiscriminately hunts down Jinchuriki from other countries in order to achieve their goals.
As her thoughts shifted, Konan's eyes gradually turned cold, and the paper infused with chakra energy began to dance around her.
She will not compromise with anyone who attempts to harm Yahiko and Nagato!
"The Rinnegan belongs to Nagato; it is a treasure of the Land of Rain."
"Even if it's you, I won't hand it over!"
"Try taking it!!"
Xiao Nan's impromptu response was imbued with an indomitable will, and the white paper swirling around her gradually transformed into sharp shuriken under the construction of her will.
If the former makes any rash move, these paper shuriken, which are in no way inferior to regular ninja tools, will pierce through the enemy in an instant!
Unfortunately, the explosive tags they had set up had been mysteriously moved by the enemy.
Otherwise, even if she were to defeat Madara Uchiha's Blood Demon form, she could make him pay a heavy price!
"Oh?"
"With just you,"
"Or even if you sue the entire Land of Rain, what can you do to me?"
Huang looked at the woman in his field of vision with a hint of irony.
It's rather ridiculous to try and stop a chariot with a show of force when you've already flexed your muscles.
However, in a sense, they are also worthy of respect.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Nan involuntarily bit her lower lip, her eyes gleaming with a clear sense of resentment.
She knew that although the other party's words were arrogant, they were a definite, inevitable consequence!
The Land of Rain, having lost Yahiko and Nagato, cannot be protected by one person alone.
After all, even the Hidden Cloud Village was overthrown under the opponent's iron fist, let alone the Hidden Rain Village which was falling apart.
but,
Even so!
I will protect myself to the very end!!
However, before the grief and indignation in Xiao Nan's eyes could fully transform into a burning fighting spirit, the young man in front of her spoke again:
"Relax, I didn't say I absolutely had to get the Rinnegan."
Even as they were talking, the other party had already sheathed his sword.
Xiao Nan was somewhat taken aback by these words and actions.
Thinking about it carefully, it seems that the other party was indeed just asking where the Rinnegan was, rather than directly forcing him to hand over the Rinnegan like Madara did.
However, the wary look in Yu Zhi's eyes and the paper shurikens hovering around him did not diminish or disperse as a result.
Because she had a genuine understanding, the man in front of her was no longer the little guy who came to the Land of Rain for the first time. Even without using any ninja tools, he could kill her with his bare hands!
"The Rinnegan is not something you can protect."
"Only by entrusting them to the Hidden Demon Village can we prevent others from coveting them. Once the Hidden Rain Village has a successor capable of inheriting these eyes, we can retrieve them."
"You know you can't stop me, nor can you prevent me from finding the information I want to know in your eyes."
"Besides, weren't we allies?"
"Instead of constantly guarding against and protecting those eyes, we should focus all our efforts on protecting the Land of Rain left behind by Yahiko and Nagato."
After eliminating the two traitors in his family, Ara's state of mind underwent some changes, which is why he said so much to Konan.
Blindly resorting to force and oppression to achieve its goals, and recklessly building up hatred with others and other countries, will only narrow the future path of the Hidden Demon Village. Such a situation of being an enemy of the world is not what it wants to see.
Because that would be tantamount to turning the former Uchiha clan into the Hidden Demon Village and the Land of Hot Springs into the entire ninja world.
However, this does not mean that it has adopted the same tolerant attitude as Shisui and the former clan leader, Fugaku Uchiha.
Invaders, no matter how far away, will be punished!
The blood debts he carries are already countless, and he doesn't care about adding another one or even an entire sea of blood.
Xiao Nan's heart was wavering.
If the former were as forceful and coercive as Madara Uchiha, she could fight to the death with the belief that they would perish together. However, this combination of soft and hard tactics, especially the method of bringing the future of the Land of Rain to the forefront, made her hesitate and unable to make a decision.
I do not know how long it has been,
During the continuous rainy season, the ceaseless flow of the rivers makes it difficult to notice the passage of time.
Finally, after looking back at her homeland standing in the rain once again, Xiao Nan slowly loosened her tightly clenched hands, and the paper shuriken that had been hovering around her dissipated and returned to their original blank state.
"I understand, I'll take you there."
She looked at the young man quietly appreciating the rain in her field of vision, and an endless sorrow spread through her heart.
Unable to preserve the Rinnegan or help his junior brother, perhaps all he could do was protect this land for Yahiko and Nagato.
As soon as she finished speaking, Xiao Nan didn't look at the other party's reaction, nor did she say anything meaningless like "please keep your promise." Instead, she simply turned into pages of paper and scattered on the turbulent river.
The idea of "keeping it in trust" and "it will be returned when someone takes over" is probably just a euphemistic way of saying it's plunder.
The first skill a ninja must learn is deception.
If the other party is truly intentionally deceiving you, there's nothing you can do about it.
I'm sorry, Yahiko; I'm sorry, Nagato. In the end, I still couldn't protect her...
