With the collapse of the Earthburst Celestial Star, the battle between the two on the ground has entered a white heat.

With the cooperation of multiple shadow clones, Tiandao Payne, who was the only one left, seemed a little passive.

Even if he inherited the bloodline of the Vortex Clan, after successively using the two extremely chakra-consuming ninjas of the Shinra Heavenly Expedition and the Earthburst Heavenly Star, Nagato's current body is still close to its limit.

So in the face of Naruto, who was waiting for work, Nagato's defeat was already predictable.

"HRE Celestial Sign!"

Nagato, who was manipulating Heavenly Dao Payne, looked at the shadow clones who were rushing towards him again, and he gritted his teeth and still used that move.

"Bang bang!"

When the shadow clone that was still in mid-air encountered an attack, it instantly turned into a large piece of white gas, but just when Payne thought that his attack had lifted the crisis, Naruto, who was hiding in the shadow clone, was already close enough to Payne under the cover of the large shadow clone.

"Spiral Pill!"

Naruto roared, and the chakra pill in his right hand slapped straight on Payne's body.

Heavenly Dao Payne, who was already at the end of the crossbow, inevitably fell under the attack of this blow that overwhelmed the camel.

But this was not the end, because Naruto had already picked up the black iron rod in Payne's hand at this time.

With red eyes, he didn't hesitate without any hesitation, and instantly pierced his palm with the black iron rod.

"It's ......"

Nagato, in the distance, was still extremely surprised by Payne's defeat when an even more shocking fact made his expression even more moved.

"You've grown to this point, and you can use the Immortal Mode to track my tracks in reverse?"

At the moment when Naruto used the immortal mode to reverse track, Nagato noticed his actions, but at this time, it was already a little too late.

"Found it!"

In just a few moments, Naruto used the immortal mode to track the traces of Payne's body in reverse.

Next, he leaped to his feet and quickly moved in that direction.

……

In the center of that forest, in a towering tree formed by Konan ninjutsu, Nagato, whose body was contained in a container, had sensed Naruto's approach.

"He's coming?"

As Nagato gasped and said this, Xiao Nan, who was beside him, instantly became vigilant when he heard this.

"Stomp!"

With a clear footstep, Naruto walked into the camouflaged tree with red eyes.

"Peace has come unexpectedly!"

Sensing Naruto's arrival, Nagato opened his rippling eyes, and his tone was full of inexplicable feelings.

"Wait, I'm not here to fight you!"

Seeing that the scrawny man had the idea of making a move, Naruto gritted his teeth, but still chose to want to talk.

"You don't want to fight me......"

Naruto's mouth repeated Naruto's inexplicable words, and even at this moment he fell into a brief confusion.

"Yes, after knowing that you are the apprentice of the Lustful Immortal, I have a question, what happened to you as the apprentice of the Lustful Immortal, why is this happening, you should be different from the guys in the Xiao Organization who kill people for fun, but I don't know you at all...... So, let me hear your stories! ”

Naruto looked at the scrawny man not far away, and the hatred in his heart inexplicably retreated a lot, so at this time, he slowly said a question that had been hidden in his heart for a long time.

"Well, let's let you know about our pain!"

Nagato in the container looked down at Naruto below, and after being silent for a while, he was still ready to tell everything to the disciple of Jiraiya-sensei in front of him.

……

"It's better to come this far, it looks like I'm going to have to act!"

High in the distance, Ningji's reincarnated eyes were fixed on Naruto, who had been in close contact with Nagato's main body, but after a while, there was still no sign of a large number of chakras being used inside.

This has already shown everything.

The trajectory of this world is still the same as before, and it is gradually approaching the original trajectory.

But for all this, Ning Ci did not allow it, because this kind of correction would affect his plan in the future.

And, this time, his goal has been achieved, so it's time to act.

And at this time, in the towering tree in the middle of the woods, the conversation between Payne and Naruto continued.

However, Naruto's expression had slowly become a little subtle as Payne recounted a series of brutal facts, and by this time, his boy, who had never experienced war, gradually understood why they had changed so dramatically as the apprentices of the immortals.

But as a person who has inherited the belief of a lustful immortal, he still can't help but want to hold on.

So in the face of Nagato's narration of the cruel facts, although Naruto can understand, but he will not compromise.

So after some dialogue, the trajectory of this world still takes the path of repetition.

"I'll try to believe you, Naruto Uzumaki!"

Looking at the stubborn young man in front of him, Nagato seemed to see his former self, so under a series of touches, he made a decision in his heart.

As his words fell, his hands slowly sealed.

"The Innate Art of Reincarnation!"

"Nagato, you ......"

Looking at the order of Nagato's seals, as his companion, Xiao Nan naturally understood the usefulness of this technique, so her expression suddenly became flustered at this moment.

"Xiao Nan, enough is enough, I have found a new choice!"

understands Xiao Nan's worries, but at this moment, Nagato has already decided all this in his heart.

And at this moment, above the ruins of Konoha , a tall statue of Hades came out of the outer path, and with the opening of its mouth, the light point containing the souls of countless Konoha ninjas inside was about to be vacated out.

But at this moment, Nagato's gesture suddenly froze, because at this time, an unfamiliar arm was already tightly grasping his hands.

"I'm sorry, Nagato, but I can't make you succeed with this technique!"

Nagato's familiar voice came from behind his ears.

"You ......"

As Nagato turned his head stiffly, his familiar silhouette came into view.

"Nagato!"

Xiao Nan on the side looked at Ning Ci, who suddenly appeared behind Nagato, and a trace of cold murderous intent suddenly flashed in his eyes.

"Don't move, Xiao Nan, Nagato's life is in my hands!"

Speaking of this, Ning Ci blinked his eyes that were as bright as the starry sky.

At this time, the three people present noticed that Ning Ci's eyes were somewhat abnormal.

"Really...... Are those eyes pupils too? ”

Perhaps it was as the perception of the same Hitomi technique, compared to Konan and Naruto on the side, he understood all this in an instant.

"Sort of, but if it weren't for your overuse of the Hitomi technique, it wouldn't have been so easy for me to get close to you, but now, it's not up to you to call the shots, Nagato!"

Looking at Nagato's weak body, Ning Ji shook his head and said this cruel truth.

"So in the name of peace, please die, Nagato!"

As Ning Ci's words fell, the next moment his left hand that was clinging to Nagato's body was no longer kept, and he instantly sucked up Nagato's only remaining chakra.

At this distance, even Nagato, who has the eye of reincarnation, can't avoid the situation where chakra is extracted, and with his current physical condition, he, who has passively exhausted all chakra, is extremely close to death.

PS: This chapter is a bit rushed, but I'm tired of writing this kind of foreshadowing, so end this plot early!
