Chapter 210 (1/2)

Under the eyes of countless people.

Yeruashi began his opening speech as the Fifth Hokage.​​

He had previously created a shadow clone to read the text prepared by Shikaku, when the clone dissipated, Yeruashi made a speech without deviating much from the text.

As the Fifth Hokage was giving his opening speech, three figures appeared very high in the sky above Konoha, outside of Kurama's range of perception.

Red hair.

Rinnegan.

Two of them, unexpectedly, belonged to the Six Ways of Payne, Yahiko's body was the Way of Deva and the Way of Man, and the third was the Angel Conan of Akatsuki. The Man's path was held by Yahiko's back, floating in the sky, while Conan's body was surrounded by countless floating sheets of paper.

They stood in the middle of the clouds, looking down at Konoha.

Fuuuh...

With a gust of wind, many small sheets of paper fluttered on Conan's body, creating the feeling that her entire body was made of paper.

”Are you sure, Nagato?»

Conan looked at Deva's Path.

Nagato said calmly, ” Let's get started, Conan. All this for the sake of peace, if Konoha continues to control Biju, peace will never come.»

But clone this is not quite the exact wording, to be specific, a huge number of sheets of paper were sealed, imbued with her chakra, and after delivering and releasing the seal By Deva, they formed a paper clone of Conan.

Their goal is extremely simple.

According to the information received, today is the day of the inauguration of the Fifth Hokage, during which all the Konoha Shinobi should gather in one place, the perimeter will be guarded only by the Kyubi, this is the best time to enter the village.

The Kyubi will be impossible to pick up due to the power of the Silver Flash, but with Jinchuriki Sanbi, everything is much easier, you just need to create chaos.

Their plan consists of several steps.

The first step. The Path of Deva and the Paper Clone Conan will create chaos in Konoha.

The second step. At the same time, hundreds of White Zetsu will infiltrate the village from underground, while the Konoha Shinobi are focused on the Path of Deva and Conan, creating even more chaos.

The third step. After Jinchuriki Sanbi is discovered in the created chaos, the Path of Man will immediately kill her by extracting the soul, after which he will be summoned by the Path of the Beast, leaving Konoha along with the soul of Jinchuriki Sanbi.

The fourth step. Make Jinchuriki Sanbi one of the puppets of the Six Paths, using the Naraki Path.

But they still decided to try, despite the low probability of success.

It's simple.

They won't lose anything, even if the plan fails.

The Path of the Beast can at any time evacuate the Path of Deva and the Path of Man with the help of the reverse summoning technique, and Conan is just a paper clone, imbued with a large amount of chakra, her body, like the body of Nagato himself, is in a safe place.

«...»

Deva's path squinted at Konoha below.

He thought of his parents who had been killed by the Konoha Shinobi, and of Yahiko who had died at the hands of the Willow Shinobi, and his mind flashed through many scenes from the Rain Country, which had been torn apart by the wars of the Great Villages for many years.

Nagato recalled his meeting with Yeruashi a long time ago and his words to Yahiko that he would die if he continued to adhere to these naive ideas.

And so it turned out...

”You're right, Yahiko was really too naive. People are unable to understand and trust each other, only pain can bring peace!»
