Chapter 363: Chapter 363: Nagato's Change
Outside Otogakure Village, in the forest.
Konan stood at the edge of the woods, observing her surroundings.
She was the only one who could guarantee Nagato's safety here. If any enemy suddenly appeared, if anything happened, it would be troublesome.
Just finding a way to bring Nagato here had already taken a lot out of Konan. If she had to deal with enemies on top of that, she simply wouldn't have the energy.
However, at this moment, Sasuke suddenly appeared in front of Konan without a sound.
The wind that blew in her face for a moment stirred Konan's hair, and then Sasuke's face appeared in her eyes.
This sudden appearance of Sasuke made Konan step back repeatedly.
"Let's go!"
Sasuke was quite calm, however, Konan, who had recovered, felt her heart skip a beat for no reason.
At this time, Sasuke had already headed towards Nagato's location in the forest.
Konan didn't have time to think too much, and directly jumped up, chasing after Sasuke.
Arriving inside the tree disguised by Konan's paper, this was the first time Sasuke had seen Nagato. Although he had sensed Nagato's chakra before, he had never seen him with his own eyes.
The moment he saw Nagato, Sasuke felt that the situation shown in the anime, compared to reality, had a completely different visual impact.
The Nagato in front of him was struggling even to breathe, his breaths were rapid and short, and he couldn't breathe normally at all.
"What? Are you... surprised to see me?"
Sasuke withdrew his gaze and nodded slightly.
Konan walked in at this time, and Nagato glanced at her. "Don't worry! Let me talk to him alone!"
Konan just looked at Nagato. "Be careful, if anything happens... call me immediately!"
Then she slowly backed out, leaving the space to the two of them.
"Say what you have to say!"
"This time, agreeing to meet you is equivalent to repaying the favor of you letting Uchiha Itachi go!"
Sasuke was still in a hurry to go back to train his Sharingan, so he spoke quickly.
Nagato looked at Sasuke, who seemed to be in a hurry, and smiled faintly.
"I want the Three-Tails!"
Sasuke frowned. "And then?"
"That white-haired kid, he's the Three-Tails jinchuriki, right!"
"It seems you've discovered it!"
This wasn't too surprising to Sasuke.
They discovered it, so be it, it was no big deal.
But the problem was, Nagato actually wanted him to hand over Kimimaro.
"Impossible!"
Even if he owed Akatsuki once because of Itachi, it was absolutely impossible to exchange Kimimaro for it.
"I knew you would give such an answer!"
Nagato didn't seem angry.
Sasuke was puzzled. "Since you knew my answer, why did you even ask?"
"I have to try. You've seen the state of my body!"
Nagato didn't seem surprised that Sasuke, upon seeing him in person, didn't show any surprise.
Sasuke nodded. "You're dying soon!"
Nagato laughed. "I know!"
"So?"
"So I hope, if I don't complete the plan, I hope you will take over Akatsuki's plan!"
What?
This guy actually thought this way?
Was there something wrong with his head! Why did this guy think he would take over Akatsuki?
No way, did he need to take over this thing?
"Sasuke, I know your goal should be just to become stronger, I don't expect you to complete Akatsuki's plan according to my ideas!"
"But only you can stop another guy from completing an even crazier plan!"
Nagato was obviously talking about Uchiha Madara.
And Madara's Infinite Tsukuyomi plan!
To take the initiative to tell him this, it seemed that Nagato had really placed his last hope on him.
Sasuke smiled.
And at this moment, Sasuke's reaction also made Nagato feel very incomprehensible.
Logically speaking, Sasuke now should be asking him who the other guy was and what the crazier plan was.
However, Sasuke didn't ask anything, and even from Sasuke's smile,
Nagato felt an unbelievable thing, as if Sasuke knew everything...
But how could he know?
How could he possibly know such a thing?
It made no sense at all!
"You..."
Sasuke thought carefully, Nagato's current situation was probably out of desperation.
From the very beginning, when he agreed to Obito, or rather Madara's plan,
It was when he was most desperate, because of Yahiko's death.
And now!
Nagato had experienced a lot and was no longer the same as he was back then.
So!
It was normal for him to have new ideas, perhaps unwillingness, perhaps wanting to try something.
So he had been acting according to the original plan.
But as his body couldn't support him anymore, he naturally needed to think of other ways.
And now Nagato was unable to support it anymore, so he wanted to hand everything over to him.
After all, compared to Obito or Madara, he was more hopeful and strong.
He wouldn't endanger the world, and wouldn't do anything crazy.
It was the best outcome.
But!
Sasuke didn't intend to accept this mess, and at the same time, Sasuke now understood one thing, Nagato's thoughts had changed.
If Nagato didn't die, then what would the final development be like!
Would the Fourth Great Ninja War still break out?
What was the real plan in Nagato's heart?
Was it to destroy the world, or to use the threat of the tailed beasts to create a peaceful ninja world?
This was quite interesting.
Sasuke looked up at Nagato.
"Do you know that guy, and his crazy plan!"
Faced with Nagato's question,
Sasuke didn't intend to answer, but walked directly forward.
"I owed you a favor last time, so I'll repay you this time!"
"But it's not by taking over Akatsuki."
"It's too much of a waste of time, I have a better way for you to gain new life, you can complete your plan yourself."
Sasuke walked directly towards Nagato.
And at this moment, Nagato was a little puzzled, completely not understand what Sasuke wanted to do.
Sasuke came to Nagato and looked at all the equipment on him.
"It's too much of a hindrance! I'll dismantle it for you!"
He directly started to pull out all these things on Nagato's body, and when the sound of Sasuke dismantling these things rang out, Nagato's screams followed.
Konan rushed in immediately.
"Uchiha Sasuke, what are you doing to... Nagato...!"
She was about to attack Sasuke directly.
But the next second, Sasuke raised his hand and a strange energy surged.
Nagato's face became visibly rosy at a speed visible to the naked eye.
His aura also gradually became much stronger.
Even under Konan's surprised gaze, Nagato actually stood up little by little.
Seeing Nagato's changes, Konan's eyes were filled with shock.
"You... what did you do to Nagato..."
Sasuke smiled... Yin-Yang Release — Creation of All Things Technique!.
