Chapter 45: Defeat (II)
With a "squeak", Li Mingqi pushed open the door of the highest room, and Nagato sat quietly in the deepest part of the room.
Ten coffins were placed in front of him, which were supposed to be the bodies of his six doppelgangers.
Nagato's body was covered with black rods, and the red hair peculiar to the Vortex clan had completely lost its luster.
The whole body is skinny, like a terminally ill patient who is about to die.
Nagato looked at Li Mingqi and said lightly.
"Here, are you trying to kill me?"
Even now, Vortex Nagato still has the strength to fight, even though his legs are broken and he can't move.
But the eye of reincarnation is still on him after all, and now the state of both sides is very poor, so Li Mingqi can't say that he is a sure win.
"No, I just said it, I'm here to heal you."
Li Mingqi looked at Nagato, this guy looked dying, as if he was an old man who would hang up at any time.
You know, the current Nagato is only 32 years old.
Nagato looked at Li Mingqi with some surprise.
"I don't understand what you mean."
"I can give you a new lease of life and get out of your weak, immobile situation."
Li Mingqi's words made Nagato's eyes move slightly, a person who had been incapacitated for many years, and suddenly someone told him that there was a possibility of recovery, and no one would be able to achieve peace of mind.
"At what cost?" Nagato asked.
"Your eyes." Li Mingqi said.
"......" Nagato stopped talking, he felt that there was no need to talk anymore, and the reincarnation eye was the most important thing for him besides Yahiko and Konan.
And it is the source of his strength, how can it be given to others.
The atmosphere gradually became colder, and Nagato didn't make a direct move, but was actually secretly restoring Chakra.
And Li Mingqi did not take a direct shot, also because they needed to recover, and the two sides had an awkward tacit understanding.
I don't want to be the first to strike, but it seems that there is nothing to talk about.
Li Ming thought about it, but decided to persuade again, if it really didn't work, then do it.
"If you die, Madara Uchiha will kill Nan, and the culprit of all this is your eyes."
"Looks like you know a lot!" Nagato spoke again, and the possibility of communication between the two sides resumed.
"I also know that you went against Yahiko's wishes, and no matter what, he is the leader of Akatsuki."
Li Mingqi's words made Nagato clench his fists.
"Friendly bridges do not bring peace, only force can bring war to an end."
Nagato told him what he thought, but he was right.
Even in the real world, countries have developed a deformed peace because of the threat of nuclear bombs.
If a nuclear war breaks out one day, the world could be wiped out.
So, he agreed with Nagato's statement.
"You are not wrong, force can indeed put a war to an end, but you are doing it wrong."
"Am I wrong? What's wrong? Shouldn't I have gathered force? Nagato was a little disdainful of Li Mingqi's words.
"Your mistake is not in collecting force, but in believing in Madara Uchiha when you are confused yourself."
"The purpose of collecting tailed beasts is not simple, as long as your strength is strong enough, in fact, there is no difference whether there are tailed beasts or not."
"Aren't you yourself capable of destroying a ninja village alone?"
"You should make Akatsuki a transcendent organization, an organization that overrides the ninja world, instead of collecting weapons and destroying the world."
Li Mingqi's words made Nagato's eyes move slightly, and he didn't know why Madara had to collect tailed beasts at first.
But there seemed to be nothing better to do, so he agreed, and besides, he had no intention of destroying the world in the first place, he only wanted peace, even if by force.
"But my strength all exists in these eyes of reincarnation, if I lose the eyes of reincarnation, what you said will not be true." Nagato remained unmoved.
"No, you have forgotten your own power, you have the huge chakra of the Vortex Clan, and you are also proficient in 5 nature changes, and once under the teaching of Jiraiya, you even had the opportunity to learn immortal arts, these are no less than the power of the eye of reincarnation."
"But now you are overindulged in the power of the eyes of reincarnation, these eyes do not belong to you in the first place, they will only overdraw your life and destroy your body."
"If you use the eye of reincarnation like this, I'm afraid that you and Yahiko's dream has not been realized, and you yourself will die of illness."
Li Mingqi looked at Nagato, Naruto's mouth escape could convince him, but he didn't know if his mouth escape could handle him.
However, after several worlds of training, Li Mingqi's mouth escape technique has also improved a lot.
Nagato fell silent again, his body, he himself knew best, that his life force was indeed overdrawn by the eye of reincarnation.
During the time when Jiraiya taught them ninjutsu, his five ninjutsu were indeed very powerful, but after Yahiko's death, he began to use the eye of reincarnation more favorably.
If nothing else, it's just because the power of the reincarnation eye is stronger and more direct.
Looking at Li Mingqi, he suddenly asked.
"Is it really possible for my body to be cured?"
"Of course." Li Ming nodded.
"How can I trust you?" Nagato looked at Li Mingqi.
"Itachi is the best proof of that." Li Ming raised a finger weasel.
"He was worse than you before, look at him, now he is alive."
Itachi shrugged in acknowledgement.
Nagato nodded and smiled.
"Almost."
Li Mingqi also nodded.
"Well, I'm pretty much there, it seems, I still have to talk with my fists, Naruto, do it."
Naruto was stunned, didn't you just say it well? Why do you have to do it?
In fact, Li Mingqi already felt it from Nagato's pulling, he had no intention of stopping, after all, he was a generation of top powerhouses.
How could it be so easy to be persuaded by others, Naruto is the son of the Hokage World plane with the aura of the protagonist, Li Mingqi does not.
"HRE-Celestial Sign."
"Supreme majesty."
The repulsion is colliding on Li Mingqi's body, but this time the power is far less than before.
And Li Mingqi's will impact also made Nagato slightly stunned.
It was this short gap that Naruto had already reflected, and he also released the Shinra Celestial Expedition against Nagato.
At the same time, Li Mingqi thundered forward again, and his fingers mixed with internal qi pointed at Nagato's head.
How could Nagato's fragile body withstand Li Mingqi's finger, and he fainted on the spot.
"Payne in this state is much easier to deal with than Liudao." Itachi spoke.
But it's true, unlike Payne Heaven's incorruptible Vajra body, Nagato's own body has long been broken.
It is simply impossible to experience such a high-intensity battle.
"yes, we made it."
Konan, who was fighting against Kakashi, immediately arrived when he heard the sound of battle in the tower.
As soon as he pushed the door open, the paper shuriken shot at Li Mingqi.
"Itachi."
"Got it, Month Reading."
Unlike Nagato, although Xiao Nan's combat power is not weak, he is not immune to visual illusions with the reincarnation eye like Nagato.
Then Itachi's Moon Reading is the quickest way to solve the battle.
In an instant, Xiao Nan's forehead was already covered with cold sweat, and his body could no longer support it and fainted.
Li Ming got up and went to Nagato's side and injected a needle filled with life force potion into Nagato's body.
Then he began to pull out the chakra black rods on his body one by one.
With each chakra receiver pulled, a foul-smelling stream of pus erupted from Nagato's body, and some dark red blood.
In this state of body, everyone who watched it was shocked, and it was incredible that their bodies were destroyed like this, and they could still be alive.
"Let's go."
Clean up Nagato's body and grab him.
Itachi looked at the delirious Xiao Nan and asked.
"What did she do?"
Li Mingqi thought about it, but still didn't decide to kill her.
"Let's take it with us."
In this way, several of them left the territory of the Land of Rain with Nagato and Konan.
————
Ten days later, in a private manor on the border of the Fire Country, Nagato touched his legs and reluctantly stood up.
Xiao Nan on the side supported it and walked slowly in the courtyard.
"How does it feel?" Xiao Nan said.
The previous man's statement was that Nagato should wake up soon, but Nagato had just woken up the day before yesterday.
There are many reasons, his body is too poor, even if it is repaired by the life force potion, there is no way to replenish all his life force at one time.
The second point is mental fatigue, which Li Mingqi has also had, but Nagato's mental fatigue is even more serious, and he hasn't even rested well for more than ten years.
This also caused him to sleep for more than ten days.
"It's hard to get used to, but it's really powerful, and it feels like a child learning to walk."
At this time, Nagato's face was still pale, and his hair color had not regained the fiery red of the Vortex Clan, but his spirit was much better than before.
Nagato laughed, this pure smile made Xiao Nan slightly stunned.
She knew that Nagato hadn't laughed in more than a decade.
She slowly left the courtyard with the long door and came to a willow tree outside the courtyard.
A tombstone was erected here, which reads Tomb of Yahiko.
Nagato helped the tombstone and said lightly.
"I'm really too far behind you, Yahiko, if you're still here, Akatsuki will definitely be stronger than now."
"It's a pity that you left too early, but after this incident, my body has slowly recovered."
"Moreover, I have also found the inheritor of our will of know, and he will definitely do better than us."
"His hairstyle is like yours, and his personality is as big as yours, and his name is ......"
"Naruto Uzumaki."
