The rainy forest was filled with the smell of burning fire, and the ground turned into a pitch-black scorched earth due to the previous bombardment.

A large amount of wood debris remains on the spot, which are the traces left after the Wood Release and Wooden Man were attacked.

Kakashi appeared here and picked up some wood chips in his hand. He could feel that these wood chips were different from ordinary trees and had extraordinary vitality.

Carefully put the scraps on your hands into transparent bags and collect them on the battlefield.

"What's the use of collecting these?"

Parker came to Kakashi's side and asked with some confusion.

Kakashi glanced at Parker and said to him: "It's just evidence used to cover up people's eyes. Take it back and give it to the Third Hokage to prove that I acted against orders without permission and did not return in vain, thereby reducing my own presence in this incident."

feel."

When the time comes, Konoha will definitely focus its attention on these wood escape remnants.

"But you can't avoid punishment, right?"

Parker said this.

After all, Kakashi's action, like Obito's, was done without permission from his superiors.

If there is no corresponding punishment from Konoha, it would be a bit unjustifiable.

Kakashi sighed quietly and said: "This is exactly what I want. My father gave up the mission and committed suicide because of rescuing his companions. This is the unanimous view of the senior management. What I have to do now is to make the same choice to prove that I am in Minato."

The transformation has been successful under the guidance of the teacher. In this way, they can use this incident to control me to a certain extent and better hold my weapon in their hands. Then they will feel at ease with me, for the sake of their future in wood.

To prepare for Ye's promotion, he must put his own handle in their hands."

Therefore, what are some trivial punishments?

Because, this is all an illusion that I want to create in Konoha's higher-ups.

Everything is moving towards the result he wants.

"...You are really scary, Kakashi."

"If I have no shortcomings, keeping a distance from anyone is the biggest flaw. Doing some unexpected and reasonable things will reduce their doubts. The important thing is to let them have a feeling that they can completely control me.

, the illusion that I am a perfect weapon in their hands. This is just the most basic course for an espionage officer."

"In other words, are Obito and Lin also the targets of your use?"

Parker looked directly into Kakashi's eyes.

Kakashi avoided Parker's sight, and after being silent for a while, he murmured in a low voice:

"Bonds are the most ridiculous thing. Everything I do is just a disguise. Naive fools like them can only be used as targets for me to use. The only value of their existence is this. Father wants to leave, and I

What we need to take now is not the same path."

After saying that, Kakashi turned around and left, his thin body disappearing into the wind and rain.

Parker sighed softly.

Really, it's still the same as before, not very frank.

After all, if you don't really care, no matter how much you pretend, your flaws will be revealed sooner or later. You can't just let nature take its course.

If you just want to be a small person who is transparent and does not attract the attention of senior officials, simple disguise will certainly work.

But if you want to get in touch with the core of Konoha, you must accept the so-called bonds in Konoha and give true feelings.

Therefore, Parker thinks Kakashi is a terrible person.

Whether it's his talent as a ninja or his performance skills as an espionage officer.

They all put 100% of their emotions and energy into it, and can accurately grasp the difference between the two, and make the best choice for themselves as an espionage officer.

If one day the blades of Konoha are facing each other, you can hurt your companions with sincere feelings and without any malice.

Moving his limbs, Parker followed Kakashi's footsteps and disappeared together.

Pain swept through me, especially in my back.

It was like it was being burned by flames all the time.

In such pain, Nagato woke up from his coma.

The surrounding light seemed very dark, and the reincarnation eye looked at this strange environment. Nagato tried his best to think about what happened before he fell into coma.

——Everyone in Akatsuki was killed, Yahiko was also killed, and everyone turned into cold, speechless corpses.

The person who did this came from the same ninja village - Konoha - as his most beloved teacher Jiraiya.

Later, in order to save Konan, the entire back of his body was injured by the detonating talisman. The burning sensation coming from behind now is probably due to this reason.

Then he channeled the Heretic Golem and swallowed up all the souls of the Konoha ninjas who killed Akatsuki, leaving no one behind.

Finally, a dark guy emerged from the ground and appeared in front of him. He was so injured that he couldn't hold on and passed out.

Recalling everything that happened before he fell into coma, Nagato breathed heavily, his body exuding a gloomy and terrifying aura, and he finally calmed down.

There was the sound of walking in the darkness, and someone was approaching.

Nagato raised his head and asked with a low breath:

"Is it Xiaonan?"

No one answered.

As the sound of walking in the darkness approached, Nagato couldn't help but tense his body, showing a vigilant look.

These walking steps and sounds were not made by Xiaonan.

Then, a slightly stooped body slowly walked out of the darkness, holding a candle in his hand, his long pale hair hanging down from his head, and his turbid red Sharingan staring at Nagato.

This person is none other than Madara.

However, he did not sit on the wooden chair he usually made and used the power of the sacred tree to maintain his life activities.

Although his body was withered, he relied on his own strength to stand firmly on the ground and came to Nagato.

He opened his mouth and said to Nagato: "If you are calling that little girl with blue hair, she is sleeping in the room inside. I didn't do anything to her."

Nagato opened his mouth, not knowing what to say for a moment.

When he saw Madara's exposed Sharingan, his expression immediately tightened, and he immediately gathered chakra and wanted to release some ninjutsu.

The Sharingan is the blood inheritance limit that only belongs to the Konoha Uchiha clan.

"I advise you not to move now. Your health is in very bad shape, and ordinary medical ninjutsu cannot cure you. Moreover, I am not your enemy. Like you, I have struggled to find peace.

Pathetic person."

Madara's voice is not loud, but it has a magical power that confuses people's hearts.

Nagato fell silent and asked after a while: "Who are you?"

"The undead of Uchiha... Madara Uchiha."

Upon hearing Madara's words, Nagato's eyes widened in shock.

Madara...Uchiha Madara?

What is this person talking about?

Isn't Madara a legendary ninja who died decades ago?

And he had already died at the hands of the First Hokage Senju Hashirama.

"Are you kidding me?"

An angry look appeared on Nagato's face.

Madara held a candle with weak candlelight in his hand and said slowly: "I'm not kidding you. I did lose to Senju Hashirama back then, but that was my carefully calculated plan. In order to get a stronger

Strength, do it as a last resort."

"Stronger power?"

Nagato spoke subconsciously.

"It's those reincarnation eyes of yours."

Madara's calm tone sounded.

"..." Nagato, who was sitting there, was stunned, his mouth opened wide, and he closed it for a long time. Then he sighed with a headache and said: "Is there any benefit in deceiving a guy like me? Or do you think I really do?

Won’t it kill you?”

Nagato's Rinnegan released cold murderous intent.

Madara ignored Nagato's murderous intent and still answered slowly: "If you are really the original owner of the Rinnegan, then why do you have various discomforts when using the Rinnegan. For example,

Heretic demon."

"you!"

Nagato's expression changed slightly.
