Reborn in Konoha as the Anbu Torturer - Chapter 573
Reborn in Konoha as the Anbu Torturer Chapter 573 I Won’t Kill You!
“????”
When Konan heard Black Zetsu’s words, a lot of question marks appeared in her head. She never thought that Black Zetsu would speak like this.
The content was completely out of her expectations.
For a moment, she felt a strong sense of confusion.
“You…”
Konan raised her finger and pointed at Black Zetsu. Her white fingers trembled slightly. She felt that Black Zetsu was trying to stir up trouble. He was not a good person at all. He was simply trying to stir up trouble.
However.
Before Konan could continue speaking.
Black Zetsu was like a drowning man who had found a life-saving straw. He held onto the last rope tightly. He suddenly realized this matter even more clearly.
It seemed.
His so-called ”uncle” was not on Konan’s side, but Nagato.
Perhaps.
He had done what his so-called “uncle” wanted to do.
Could it be…
All of this was related!
His so-called “uncle” doing these things might be related to saving his mother. It was just that he had not completely comprehended it, so he was not sure what the exact situation was.
Then…
Was there such a possibility?
That was, his so-called “uncle” Toneri also wanted Nagato to awaken the Rinnegan!
Thinking of this.
Black Zetsu suddenly felt that he had discovered something incredible!
This was something that could reverse his fate!
“The stimulation is lacking!”
Black Zetsu stared at his so-called “uncle” in front of him with his orange eyes and immediately told him all the knowledge he had.
“You know.”
“The Rinnegan awakening is similar to the Sharingan evolution.”
“That is, it needs a strong stimulation!”
“I can see that Nagato is very angry, but his anger is not enough. It is more about fear and the strong expectations in his heart.”
“Nagato has a strong expectation that he could rescue Konan. He didn’t experience an unforgettable pain so he didn’t have a strong enough desire for strength to awaken the Rinnegan.”
“The current stimulation for him…”
“Is still too weak!”
Speaking up to this point, Black Zetsu gave Konan beside Aoba, a meaningful glance.
It was just a simple glance.
However, it contained a rich meaning.
Everyone could tell what he was thinking.
“So what you mean is…” Aoba narrowed his eyes slightly. How could he not know what Black Zetsu wanted to say? However, he suddenly admired Black Zetsu a little. This person’s reaction speed was really amazing. No wonder he could continue to run these plans for so many years.
Even if it was Aoba himself.
Even if he knew almost all the information.
When he encountered some unexpected situations, there was no way to be as smooth and calm as Black Zetsu to find a chance to turn the tables.
Now, Black Zetsu really found a turning point.
How could Aoba not know what Black Zetsu was thinking, he just wanted to see how such a thing would be resolved in the end.
As Aoba spoke.
Konan, who originally wanted to question Black Zetsu, immediately took back all the words she wanted to say. She did not show any other intentions and did not want to say what she wanted to say anymore.
“If she dies, maybe it is possible!”
Black Zetsu immediately looked at Konan and repeated what he had just said.
Even though Aoba and Konan were already mentally prepared, they felt as if a rock had struck them.
Especially Konan.
She was really dumbfounded.
Konan originally thought that this matter would not fall on her. She even placed her attention on interrogating Black Zetsu, but before she could ask more, she was directly bitten by Black Zetsu.
In this way, things became very subtle.
At this moment, Konan’s eyes became cold. Her mind raced as she carefully recalled everything that had happened.
Objectively speaking…
Black Zetsu’s words were not unreasonable.
She indeed had a very good relationship with Nagato and for Toneri, they only just met today. Not even an acquaintance. It was not an exaggeration to say that they were strangers.
However.
The black person in front of her.
Otsutsuki Black Zetsu.
Even if he was a mixed-blood, he was tentatively a member of the Otsutsuki Clan.
From this perspective…
You could say that Black Zetsu and Toneri were relatives.
Because of this relationship…
Konan became cautious again.
Danger!
She felt a strong danger!
Even when she was caught by Toneri, she did not feel such a strong danger.
But now, she had it!
After all, the purpose of this person named Otsutsuki Toneri was clear: to awaken Nagato’s Rinnegan.
This was equivalent to reaching an agreement with Black Zetsu’s purpose.
Apart from that.
According to Black Zetsu’s feedback.
Just capturing her was not enough to completely stimulate Nagato.
It was not enough to awaken Nagato’s Rinnegan.
In that case, the method that Toneri used was ineffective!
This required a new method.
And the method that Black Zetsu proposed…
Kill her!
It was a simple and effective method!
Even Konan herself felt that this method was reliable.
After all, based on the relationship between her and Nagato.
As long as she died!
Then Nagato would definitely be greatly stimulated!
And then awaken his Rinnegan!
When Konan thought of this, she couldn’t help but take a deep breath. Even she felt that this kind of thing was extremely effective, let alone Toneri.
After all, what Nagato’s Rinnegan needed to awaken was stimulation!
If the stimulation of capturing her was not enough, then he could only kill her!
There was nothing wrong with this logic at all!
The most important thing was…
Konan’s self-awareness was very clear.
She was very clear about her importance in Nagato’s heart. Not only would she not be below Yahiko, but she would even be above Yahiko.
Toneri’s purpose from the very beginning was to help Nagato awaken his Rinnegan and restore Nagato’s identity as a member of the Otsutsuki Clan.
Then…
She could become a sacrifice!
Thinking of this.
Konan’s eyes dimmed.
Perhaps.
If she died.
Nagato would only be hurt for a while.
When Nagato possessed the power of an Otsutsuki and knew of his past…
He would slowly forget all of this!
After all, the difference between her and Nagato was not just the difference in strength, but also the difference in race and bloodline!
Of course.
The current Nagato did not possess such a powerful strength.
It was only potential.
But there were already differences in their bloodlines.
Even their race was different.
After all, no matter what…
Konan was a human, and she was just a ninja!
According to Toneri, Nagato was an alien from Planet Otsutsuki. He did not belong to the same planet as her.
Especially after Aoba’s description, the Otsutsuki clan has become the master of this universe in Konan’s heart.
Then…
An idea comes naturally to Konan.
In front of the people of the Otsutsuki Clan.
She was an insignificant existence!
Konan had a very thorough understanding of this.
Perhaps…
This was the better choice!
Konan’s eyes became even more dim. She felt that for Nagato, her death was like the death of a puppy.
There would be pain, but it was only temporary!
After all, according to common sense, Kaguya had already been sealed on the moon because she couldn’t be killed. This meant that the people of the Otsutsuki Clan had very tenacious vitality.
Nagato was a member of the Otsutsiki Clan.
Logically speaking, Nagato should also possess such a powerful vitality!
As a result.
Nagato would live for a long time!
When the dimension of time was infinitely stretched, then many things passing by were just passers-by.
Especially when you are young, those friends who were not very friendly, those memories may be slowly lost in the long river of time.
In a moment.
A sense of relief rose in Konan’s heart, and the depression in her heart also rose, revealing an indescribable feeling of discomfort.
After that.
Konan immediately raised her eyes to look at Aoba.
“Are you going to kill me?”
Konan asked helplessly.
In fact, she was unwilling to ask such a question because she felt that once she asked, she would be entrusting her life to the other party.
But even she could not say why.
She felt that between Black Zetsu and Aoba, she was more willing to trust Aoba, so she entrusted such a decision to Aoba.
Moreover.
She was also very hesitant in her heart.
If sacrificing oneself like this could help Nagato awaken his Rinnegan.
Should she really do this?
Just as Konan asked this question, Black Zetsu also turned to look at Aoba.
To his knowledge, this so-called “uncle” in front of him was a member of the Otsutsuki Clan, so to this so-called “uncle”, an ordinary person like Konan was just an ant.
As long as he could achieve his goal, he could just casually pinch her to death!
Now.
What Black Zetsu did not understand was what kind of attitude this so-called “uncle” in front of him had toward Nagato.
Of course.
At this stage, what he cared about most was whether he could change the topic in this way so that he could avoid these problems.
However.
There was one more thing that made Black Zetsu very puzzled.
He did not know why this so-called “uncle” would do this.
Both Konan and Nagato were currently very weak and could not have any influence at all.There was no need to exchange information like this.
Black Zetsu felt that the information he obtained from this so-called “uncle” was not as much as Konan’s.
Moreover, from his point of view, Nagato was a key left behind by Madara.
But if someone needed to use it.
Madara was the key user.
Logically speaking.
Madara was the one who was more useful!
But even so.
Madara was instantly killed by his so-called “uncle”.
Madara’s death was extremely hasty.
Even Black Zetsu did not react.
On the contrary, this so-called “uncle” when dealing with Nagato’s matter had good intentions and was not so impatient.
This made Black Zetsu feel that this so-called “uncle” in front of him seemed to be playing a big game of chess.
But he couldn’t guess what the purpose of this chess was and what kind of moves it would take.
So he was in a very confused state right now.
For him, he can only take it one step at a time, and he doesn’t know what the future will look like.
“No need.”
After hearing Konan’s words, Aoba directly shook his head and did not say any tactful words.
After all.
His plan was to guide the trio.
He hoped that the Akatsuki organization could change into another state instead of becoming an enemy of the world. Otherwise, he might as well rely on violence to suppress them.
“Phew…”
Konan breathed a sigh of relief again. She was already mentally prepared, but it was still uncomfortable. When she heard Aoba’s words, she relaxed a lot.
In fact.
Black Zetsu was right.
If he killed Konan now…
Then Nagato’s Rinnegan would definitely awaken almost instantly!
Moreover, he would enter a berserk state.
However.
From then on, the relationship between him and Nagato was irreconcilable!
Although Aoba did not care about Nagato because he would not pose any threat to him even if he gained strength.
But this was not the result he wanted!
If he just violently suppressed the Akatsuki trio, then the effort he had made would be wasted…
Now, he had been planning for a long time and had explained many things to Konan. If he killed Konan now, then everything he had done before would be in vain.
“Now, I will make it clear!”
Aoba first glanced at Black Zetsu, and then his gaze fell on Konan. In that pair of Rinnegan, there was a look that made her feel at ease.
“Konan!”
“I won’t kill you!”
“You are Nagato’s good friend!”
“Nagato is very important to me!”
“So…”
“Even if you want to sacrifice yourself to help Nagato…”
“I will not agree to it!”
Aoba shook his head. The meaning of his words became very clear.
Instantly.
Konan felt warm in her heart.
A faint mist appeared in her eyes.
After all, just a moment ago, she had experienced a round of indescribable great joy and sorrow. It was as if she had stepped into the gates of hell and had just come out.
“But…” Konan blinked her eyes.
“There is nothing to say!”
Aoba’s tone became much more overbearing, revealing an unquestionable dignity.
“Nagato’s Rinnegan will awaken sooner or later!”
“A little earlier.”
“A little later.”
“It doesn’t matter at all!”
“But…”
“If you die!”
“There’s was no turning back.”
Aoba explained again that he didn’t want to use this method at all, otherwise he would have used it from the beginning.
