Chapter 506 Nagato's Sharingan, Jigen Makes His Appearance
"Did we lose? I didn't expect you, Jiraiya-sensei, to have such powerful genjutsu, especially since you used your voice to activate it. We were careless!"
Ignoring Jiraiya's question, Nagato looked at the four Fudo Myoo toads with a strange glint in his eyes.
This level of illusion is very powerful, but if that technique were used...
"What? You haven't given up yet, Nagato?" Seeing that Nagato remained calm, Jiraiya spoke suspiciously, sensing something was wrong.
The Rinnegan, it can't possibly still have the ability to resist genjutsu, right?
"No one knows the outcome until the very last moment, so of course we haven't given up. Isn't that what you taught us, Jiraiya-sensei?" Yahiko shouted, trying to attract Jiraiya's attention.
"Uh! Yahiko, I admit your never-give-up spirit is admirable, but sometimes you have to face reality." Jiraiya sighed, scratching his head. He hadn't expected his disciple to still be so impulsive and hot-blooded.
But the moment he finished speaking, "Reality? Reality is that we won!!"
Suddenly, Nagato's cold snort made Jiraiya pause, and he subconsciously turned his head to look.
The next instant, Jiraiya's eyes bulged as he stared at Nagato's left eye, dumbfounded and frozen in place.
"Sharingan? How is that possible?!"
"How is it impossible? Jiraiya-sensei, this is my reality." Nagato said, a hint of resentment flashing in his eyes. Then, the tomoe on his right eye swirled, 'Magic Illusion: Mirror World Spin...'
With a soft "poof," supported by the power of the Rinnegan, Nagato's left eye unleashed a genjutsu rebound, directly tearing apart the sage technique and returning to his original form.
Although Jiraiya was deflected by the genjutsu, he was able to break free of it instantly due to the interference of the chakra of the two sages, Fukasaku and Shima.
"Jiraiya-sensei, now face your reality!" Nagato shouted resolutely, and several summoning beasts disappeared with a series of bangs!
"Oh~ Ahhh—"
With a clap of his hands, Nagato's nose bled profusely, and a small black ball appeared in his palm, which he threw directly at Jiraiya's head.
At the same time, he grabbed with both hands and retreated rapidly with Yahiko and Konan.
"What is that??"
Jiraiya, having broken free of the illusion, stared at the black sphere and his expression changed drastically. A powerful suction force erupted from it, instantly drawing in the surrounding ruins to form a sphere of earth ten meters in diameter.
"No, Sage Mode needs to be deactivated! Jiraiya, let's go together!"
"Yeah, if you get sucked in, you'll be smashed into a meat patty."
Seeing Jiraiya desperately resisting the suction, Fukasaku Shima hurriedly called out to persuade him.
"Damn it, we were so close to succeeding!" Jiraiya cried out in frustration, but he knew that this was the only way now.
Once Sage Mode is forcibly removed, all that awaits him is the seal turning him into a prisoner.
"Nagato, Yahiko, Konan, I will come back to find you!" Jiraiya shouted to the three of them, then vanished into thin air along with the two sages!
"Phew... They're finally gone..."
Almost the instant Jiraiya left, Nagato knelt on the ground, coughing up blood. His body cells rapidly atrophied, his entire body collapsed, and he became emaciated.
At the same time, the earthen ball in the sky also collapsed, turning into fragments that fell to the ground!
"Nagato, are you alright?"
"You're pushing yourself too hard, Nagato."
Yahiko and Konan immediately stepped forward to inquire with concern, their faces filled with heartache as they looked at Nagato, who resembled a skeleton.
"There's no other way, this is the only way to scare him away. Even so, I still lost the Heavenly Path Puppet. No wonder he calls himself a sage, Master Jiraiya." Nagato sighed with a wry smile. He was just at his last gasp, all bark and no bite.
If Jiraiya had been even a step later, he would have been forced to dispel the technique due to the terrifying drain on his chakra caused by Chibaku Tensei.
"Damn it, we're still too weak! We can't help at all." Yahiko slapped his thigh and exclaimed in frustration, his face full of resentment and helplessness.
Xiao Nan also gritted her teeth, feeling an unprecedented and terrifying pressure.
Jiraiya alone pushed them to the brink, but Konoha had more than just two such ninjas. Besides Orochimaru and Tsunade, the Yellow Flash and the rising Legendary Sannin of Konoha were also potential enemies.
And, that most despicable guy, Uchiha Sasuke!
"Nagato, let's abandon Amegakure and go into hiding. That way, Jiraiya won't be able to find us, and we'll have time to train and grow stronger." After a pause, Yahiko looked at Nagato, whose hair was starting to fade, and said through gritted teeth.
They suffered losses this time despite having an intelligence advantage, so what about next time?
Next time, Jiraiya-sensei definitely won't come alone.
“No, Amegakure is the place you dreamed of changing, Yahiko. What will happen to those who follow us if we leave?” Nagato refused without hesitation, then gave a bitter smile with a determined look. “So, I’ll leave! The person Jiraiya-sensei really wants is me.”
"Anyway, I never wanted to become the leader of Amegakure. The current situation was all caused by accident. That's perfect. From now on, Amegakure will be in your hands, Yahiko!"
At this point, Nagato gave Yahiko a deep look and offered his blessings, "From now on, you and Konan can develop peacefully in Amegakure. Jiraiya-sensei won't make things difficult for you."
"Nagato..."
Yahiko immediately understood Nagato's meaning, glanced at Konan who was equally sorrowful and reluctant to part, and firmly shook his head. "No, we'll go together, we'll stay together. In short, I won't let you face the danger alone, Nagato!"
Although he also wanted to stay in Amegakure with Konan and live happily ever after, he would not accept it if it meant leaving Nagato alone with loneliness.
“Me too, Nagato, Yahiko.” Konan immediately stopped crying and smiled, nodding in agreement. This moved Nagato, who silently made up his mind.
For the sake of his comrades, he had to leave Amegakure.
This isn't about escaping; it's about preparing for a better reunion in the future!
"Perhaps you need my help..."
Suddenly, just as the three were preoccupied with their own worries and troubled by the future, a detached voice slowly rang out.
"An enemy? Who are you?"
Yahiko's expression changed drastically, and he instinctively stood in front of Nagato, his eyes fixed warily on the cloaked man who had suddenly appeared, his heart filled with horror.
This is the heart of Rain's Den; the fact that the other party was able to get here without anyone noticing suggests they are no ordinary person.
Nagato shared the same thoughts, and was even more horrified and fearful!
After all, his opponent could deceive his senses. The opponent had seen everything during the battle just now, but he hadn't noticed at all. It was terrifying!
"Who am I? Hmm, let me think of my current name..." Faced with Yahiko's questioning, the man nervously murmured as he took off the hood of his trench coat, revealing a pigtail that extended from the top of his head to the back of his head.
"By the way, my name is now Jigen, you can call me that. Uchiha Madara's eyes..."
Suddenly, the newcomer looked up sharply, stared directly at Nagato, and spoke calmly, the four characters clearly visible under the corner of his eye.
