Naruto: We are invincible

One second, just one second, was enough to interrupt Nagato's thoughts.

He raised his head and looked at Naruto firmly, and was about to speak when another memory suddenly came to his mind.

"Akatsuki?" Nagato asked in confusion. Yahiko nodded.

"Yes, it is Akatsuki. The three of us, and all those who are willing to join us, will form an organization called 'Akatsuki'." Yahiko said excitedly, "We want to bring true peace to this world, no war, no killing! I believe that as long as we work together, we can achieve this goal!"

Nagato suddenly laughed without warning, which confused Naruto even more.

"You're right." Nagato said, with a hint of sadness in his tone, "Yahiko's original intention in establishing Akatsuki was to exchange for true peace without the use of force. But I lost myself in hatred and forgot his dream..."

"Can you pull out that black rod? I have one last thing to do," Nagato requested.

Naruto didn't know what he wanted to do, but he did it anyway.

When the metal rod left his body, Nagato showed no pain at all. He raised his hands tremblingly and made a complicated seal.

"I have brought too much pain to this world. I hope this can atone for my sins..." Nagato whispered.

"Heretic: The natural art of reincarnation!"

As the last word fell, a bright green light burst out from him, very similar to the healing technique Naruto had used before.

Hundreds of green lights flew into the distance, and one of them slowly wrapped up Xiaonan's body.

Xiaonan took a sharp breath and opened his eyes in disbelief.

"Nagato!" she exclaimed, looking around and seeing Naruto and Hinata standing nearby.

They were looking at themselves sadly.

She turned around and saw Nagato's head full of white hair.

"What did you do?" Konan asked in disbelief, holding Nagato's head in her arms.

"I finally found the way to true peace..." Nagato coughed violently and said, "True peace is not built on the suffering of the weak and powerless, but on sympathy, compassion and kindness. It is you who made me understand all this." Nagato looked at Naruto and said, "It is you who gave me hope..."

"Join us, Nagato," Naruto suggested, knowing that the good in Nagato's heart was not completely gone.

Nagato was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly:

"I told you, Naruto, I have committed too many sins. I am no longer qualified to turn back."

"Maybe..." Nagato raised his head, looked at the sky, and felt Konan's tears sliding down his cheeks, "But I'm tired, and my time is over. If there is anyone in this world who can achieve true peace... it's you... Naruto..."

Nagato's voice became weaker and weaker, and finally, with a smile on his face, he closed his eyes forever.

This was the first time in many years that he had looked so peaceful.

"War only brings death, pain and hatred. It is a cycle that will never end." Naruto remembered what the Six Paths Sage had said, walked to Nagato's side and knelt down.

Xiaonan was in tears, and her tears washed away her purple eyeshadow.

She looked up and saw Naruto kneeling before Nagato, head bowed in his respect.

"Why?" Xiaonan asked in tears.

"Because he is a respectable ninja." Naruto stood up and said with a smile.

Hinata also walked over to him and knelt down.

"Whatever he did, he did it to achieve peace in his heart."

Naruto turned around and looked to the east, where thick smoke was rising from the direction of the Hidden Cloud Village.

"Is everything over?" He sighed, turned back to look at Xiaonan, and asked, "What are your plans next?"

"I want to go back to the Hidden Rain Village." Konan wiped her tears and said, "I can't let the village that Nagato and Yahiko fought for become ruins. I want to protect it and protect their dreams." As she spoke, she manipulated the paper to wrap up Nagato's body.

"Wait." Naruto called out to Konan.

Xiaonan paused in confusion.

Naruto walked up to Nagato and knelt down again.

"What are you going to do?!" Xiaonan shouted, "Are you going to continue humiliating him after his death?!"

Konan yelled in anger, chakra surging uncontrollably.

Naruto held out his hand, motioning her to calm down. He took a deep breath and opened his eyes, revealing his Rinnegan.

"I'm not doing this for myself, because I already have the Samsara Eye." Naruto explained, "The power of the Samsara Eye is too strong. I can't let it fall into the hands of the wrong people. That will only bring greater disaster to the world."

Xiaonan was stunned, then smiled bitterly:

"It seems that he was not wrong about the person after all..."

She manipulated the paper and slowly lifted up Nagato's body:

"You are the one destined to bring peace to the world. I believe in you, Naruto."

"I will inherit his will, return to the Hidden Rain Village and rebuild my home." Xiaonan said, turning into pieces of paper all over the sky and disappearing in the wind.

Naruto raised his head, looked at the blue sky, and took a deep breath.

Suddenly, he felt a warm hand gently on his shoulder. He turned around and saw Hinata smiling at him.

Naruto held Hinata's hand, and the two walked side by side towards the Hidden Cloud Village.

Suddenly, Naruto stopped walking, he looked down and found something on the ground.

It was Nagato's Akatsuki cloak, already tattered and covered in dust.

Naruto bent down, picked up the cloak, and gently dusted it off.

The next second, the cloak returned to its original state, intact, as if it had never experienced the baptism of war.

"What are you doing?" Hinata asked in surprise, only to see Naruto putting the Akatsuki cloak on himself.

"Akatsuki is an organization that exists to bring peace to the world." Naruto said with a smile, putting on the hood of his cloak, "I think there is no better way to commemorate him than to inherit his will."

The old Akatsuki is gone... but a new Akatsuki has been born... a better era is coming...
